While I’m Darcyblogging, some Important Content:
Mr Darcy soon drew the attention of the room by his fine, tall person, handsome features, noble mien, and the report, which was in general circulation within five minutes after his entrance, of his having ten thousand a year.
-
“I have heard much of your master’s fine person,” said Mrs Gardiner, looking at the picture; “it is a handsome face.”
-
“Does that young lady know Mr Darcy?”
Elizabeth coloured, and said—“A little.”
“And do not you think him a very handsome gentleman, ma’am?”
“Yes, very handsome.”
-
“To be sure, Lizzy,” said her aunt, “he is not so handsome as Wickham; or, rather, he has not Wickham’s countenance, for his features are perfectly good.”
-
“On the contrary, there is something pleasing about his mouth when he speaks.”
-
At length every idea seemed to fail him; and, after standing a few moments without saying a word, he suddenly recollected himself, and took leave.
The others then joined her, and expressed their admiration of his figure
#i still love that mrs gardiner 'heard much' of how attractive darcy is from apparently a bunch of people who hate him #'he's evil and obnoxious but like......in a really hot way' #honestly in my headcanon wickham looks like m!grace kelly and darcy looks like m!katharine hepburn
