characters in a period drama: *hold hands/touch each other in a loving way for the first time*
me:
every tiny display of affection in a period drama is so intense like someone could just touch another character’s cheek and i’ll nearly have a heart attack
“He looked at her as a man might look at a faded flower he had plucked, in which it was difficult for him to trace the beauty that had made him pick and so destroy it.”
when ppl are like “being beautiful won’t solve ur problems” n it’s like ok true maybe but i’d rather have a chance at traveling the world making a living off taking pictures and wearing elaborate outfits everyday by designers so rich they think a single banana costs $3,000 to buy than be ugly alone in my room…. wym
