Love all of these, especially the last one. I prefer my villains repentant but Willoughby can become the first human immediately fossilized by an asteroid.

Amy- Thanks for sharing this. I keep forgetting how much I enjoy the recent rendition of the Emma picture. Particularly the guy who played Elton. His comedic timing, especially when he was giving the sermon. I forget the exact words, but with a high-pitched inflection he goes, " ... for in thy SIGHT," which shocked everyone. It really reminds me of the many times I chuckled inappropriately at church in the middle of the most properly somber moments---which of course made the chuckling all the more inappropriately funny. A snowball of chuckles if I can say so. Your writing is a good reminder of this. :)

Wickam would make sure to let Elizabeth Bennett know that Mr. Darcy cheated him during an eclipse.

Lucy Steele would proclaim how many times Edward came to visit during an eclipse, and if Mrs. Ferrars only knew how much Lucy adored eclipses she and Edward could marry.

Colonel Brandon would take advantage of it to stare at Marianne without anyone seeing.

Jane Fairfax would not be able to watch the eclipse because Miss Bates would stand in front of her, talking endlessly about how Jane had JUST WRITTEN a letter discussing how she watched the eclipse with the Campbells.

Emma Woodhouse would make many advantage matches because of it, while Mr. Knightley scolded her for taking credit because of a natural phenomenon.
