Modern Pride and Prejudice AU where Mrs. Bennet is obsessed with getting her daughters employed and all of the proposals are job offers.
Elizabeth turns Darcy down because he’s the last man in the world she could ever be prevailed upon to work for (if he’s such a jerk as a neighbour imagine what he’s like as a boss).
Then she visits Pemberley Head Office and everyone is talking about what a great boss Darcy is and how fantastic their benefits are and she’s like “…hm.”
Everyone in the family is relying on Jane because she’s got some easily marketable talent and Bingley was really enthusiastic about it and wanted to go into business with her but Darcy talked him out of it because he didn’t get the vibe that Jane was all that invested in the project (she was).
Mary is that kid who’s doing 5000 different clubs because it’ll look good on her college applications, but all of her personal essays sound like they were written by chatgpt (she would never use it, her writing is just that unimaginative).
Lydia and Kitty are teenage tiktok influencers and Elizabeth is begging her parents to assert some discipline because the girls are exposing themselves to an extremely wide audience and have absolutely no guidelines for safe and appropriate internet behavior, but Mrs. Bennet is just like “well at least SOMEONE in this family is successful” and Mr. Bennet is like “let them get it out of their system, no one will remember when they’re older”
Mr. Bennet runs a company but it’s been barely breaking even for years because he’s not really very good at investments or planning ahead and then in comes tech bro William Collins who won’t shut up about cryptocurrency at dinner and has a reference from Catherine De-frickin-Bourgh and the board is heavily hinting that they want to replace Mr. Bennet and Mrs. Bennet is panicking
what if i did an ofmd close read but like. just for specific characters.
like what if i skimmed the entire show and only focused on what frenchie is saying and doing and i analyzed everything he does in the background and in group shots. what then.
Do Roach!!!
oh if i do this im definitely gonna do it for like. the whole crew.
but also roach is the one who made me want to do this bc one time i noticed that in e4 roach and ivan interacted way off in the background when ed is telling everyone to line up to greet their captain. i forget what exactly they did but it looked like roach asked a question and ivan nodded and it looked like a casual and pleasant interaction.
i want to find more of that. i want to know every tiny insignificant detail of every scene.
