beat with STICKS

[schmerica]

God, Edmund Bertram/Fanny Price is seriously one of the grossest canon het couples ever. Ew ew ew ew EW. I sort of want to beat them away from me with sticks. Seriously, in my head, I'm forced to have this whole big AU for the ending of the book going on, where Mrs. Rushworth disgraces herself with someone else, and it ends with Fanny with Henry Crawford and Edmund with Mary Crawford, just to make the book bearable.

In conclusion, Mansfield Park is really not my favorite Austen.

Hi, sharing your misery. :P

I think a Masfield Park AU comm would be utterly brilliant. Just so you know. I would totally write a fic where Susan B. Anthony gets bron a few centuries earlier than she really did, and meets up with Fanny & co. Because. OMG. *punches ALL OF THE CHARACTERS IN THE FACE*

*giggles* I LIKE some of the characters. Just, uh. Not all of them.

Well, okay, I like Edmund. Mr. Rushworth is an entertaining idiot.Mary Crawford was almost awesome, and then she went and just wasn't anymore. But pretty much all the women make me weep. A lot. For all their own special reasons.

The thing about Mary Crawford is I love her when she is actually *there*, but then she goes offstage and all we here is Fanny bitching about how awful she is. No fun!
