The beauty of the thing was, you see, that nothing could possibly go wrong.
Last words* of Bertie Wooster, just before nearly everything goes wrong.
*Well, not quite the last words. He's a very talkative fella once he gets going on a subject. Such as how very similar plans could very easily go wrong.

From Honoria's perspective, Bertie proposes to her by taking her on a walk, telling her he has a FRIEND, not him okay but a FRIEND OF HIS who completely adores her but is kind of dumb and unworthy of her and shy about openly speaking of his feelings for her, but is a good guy in his own way really, and then ends by saying this:
 "Well, that’s the posish. You might just bear it in mind, what?”
That is very ridiculous and charming. I get why she was laughing but fond.
(And then he shoves her little brother into a river to pretend to save him, right after she says he might fall in and get hurt.)

We were living in seleucis on the tigris river during the same span of summers... do you rememver a red ibis bird with beautiful plumes? Yeah U were a sort of dull brown goat that didn't train and dint make milk or kids. Yeah? No? Eventually the Zoroastrian homesteaders who owned you started feeding you contaminated barley to try and kill you lol. Maybe you remember the ergotism? Anyway. also I want one of these 🫵stupid little breads in the case

I just realized that entire story was about Bertie trying to impress Jeeves with a plot regarding Bingo trying to impress a girl he was in love with…those parallels sure are paralleling

The whole essence of a rescue, if you know what I mean, is that the party of the second part shall keep fairly still and in one spot. If he starts swimming off on his own account and can obviously give you at least forty yards in the hundred, where are you?
Bertie asking the real questions!!

I understood what these writer-chappies mean when they talk about time standing still.
It’s adorable how despite the format of the books, Bertie has no concept of himself as one of the writer-chappies in question. We’re just a couple of old pals having the longest catch-up gossip session.

The stage seemed to stretch out in front of me like a trackless desert, and there was a kind of breathless hush as if all Nature had paused to concentrate its attention on me personally. Well, I felt just like that now. I had a kind of dry gulping in my throat, and the more I walked the farther away the kid seemed to get.

She chucked back her head and laughed with considerable vim. She had a penetrating sort of laugh. Rather like a train going into a tunnel.
This isn’t helping us not be in love with Honoria

Still, apart from that there wasn’t a flaw. The beauty of the thing was, you see, that nothing could possibly go wrong.
Pictures taken moments before disaster
[I asked] her if she would come for a stroll in the grounds with me, as I had something particular to say to her.
I had decided to open the proceedings by sort of paving the way for young Bingo. I mean to say, without actually mentioning his name, I wanted to prepare the girl’s mind for the fact that, surprising as it might seem, there was someone who had long loved her from afar and all that sort of rot.
Things that absolutely cannot be misinterpreted. An absolutely foolproof plan. On top of the attempted drowning of a child and all that. What could go wrong!!

The drawback to this otherwise singularly fruity binge was, of course, the fact that Jeeves wouldn’t be on the spot to watch me in action.
Where do I even—

The thing that really gets to my heart about how Laios’s autism is portrayed in his conflict with Toshiro is that his pain is centered and sympathized with.
How many dozens, hundreds of stories have we gotten about that obnoxious side character who just won’t take the hint and get lost, plaguing the main character who is never up front about their actual feelings but we’re supposed to relate to? How it’s played for humor half the time, a lighthearted burden on the main to make them roll their eyes before the Big Challenges of their story, with no thought to the pain and loss of the side character investing so much emotion into caring for someone who finds them a nuisance?
I think it’s even more poignant that Ryoko Kui is writing from a Japanese perspective that puts Toshido’s approach even more in the default, culturally enforced norm, but still asks “what about the feelings of the person who doesn’t have that all-important knack for ‘reading the room’ and picking up on all those invisible messages never said aloud?” and encourages us to care
