I still get excited when my friends refer to me as their friend
"My friend said" "this is my friend" "they're my friend"
Im freaking out inside every time
Look what's just arrived!
The amount of cuteness is killing me 😭
it’s such a shame that the “your fave is a girlboss/malewife” blog is run by an anti
because like
Thomas and Lucille are indisputably malewife and girlboss
reblog to violently explode a trans kid’s transphobic teacher
Bruno has 100% called Mirabel "mi vida" without meaning to
Probably at the dinner table
There ya go, my monthly “STILL NOT OVER LUCILLE SHARPE” moment.

when will people listen to what the dialogue in Crimson Peak actually says about the canonically 2-year-not-grooming age difference between Lucille and Thomas and understand that she was just as lonely and abused as he was when the incest started
you had headcanon all you want about how their relationship evolved by the 1901 but please stop trying to make something that was consensual and born out of desperation for comfort weird
Edith is 24. The flashback at the beginning with Eleanor's ghost happens when she's 10, and then the main action takes place "14 years later" according to a title card onscreen
Thomas is 34, based on the date of the newspaper announcing Beatrice's murder (1879), his age at the time (12), and the present year shown in Carter Cushing's checkbook (1901)
Lucille is 36, from the same logic above. (people seem to enjoy interpreting their age gap as much larger, which is weird to me because it's stated onscreen? by Alan when he's confronting them near the end? even if you don't pause the movie to read document dates- understandable -"12 and 14 when Beatrice was murdered" makes the gap clear)
