osprey_archerJust saw the latest Lydia Bennet video.
Oh, Lydia.
Hugs, hugs. Many many hugs.
Your new best friend was only hanging out with you because your parents (I'm presuming) were paying her to tutor you? Probably not the worst thing that ever happened. But pretty close.
Also, Mary, WTF? Guess you don't need the money now, huh? Because I'm pretty sure Lydia will never speak to you again.
...I was kind of curious what people could possibly write for LBD for Yuletide...but I want so much fix-it fic for this. Like, Mary realizes that she was mean and buys Lydia a pony fix-it fic. (Or at least rents a pony and rides it to Lydia's house. Let's be realistic here.)
***
Also, here's my theory for Lydia's upcoming disgrace: I think she's going to leak the contents of Darcy's letter to the internet. Because how else are we going to find out? And then Darcy will stop Wickham from suing her to hell and back.
(Could Wickham sue Lydia for reading a letter that Darcy wrote which reveals unpleasant truths about Wickham's past? Maybe not. But Wickham might be mad enough to need someone to talk him out of trying.)

Date: 2012-11-15 01:09 am (UTC)I like your theory, that Lydia would publicly disgrace Wickham somehow - Lydia's loyalty to her family make that more likely than Lydia running away with a guy her sister once went out with. Perhaps Wickham would have grounds for suing Lydia because of how she reveals the letter's contents? If she emails his boss and negatively affects his employment or something?
Also, if this was the path the LBD took, it would mean Lizzie's reason comment about Darcy having grounds to sue her for what she's said about him would be a nice bit of foreshadowing.

I should take DIRECT ACTION." And then she types up an email, and the video ends when she presses send...cliffhanger!
