Ok but I was just thinking

Jooster is kind of the only actual solid relationship in Jeeves and Wooster?? Like platonic or romantic, let me explain

Like obviously it’s the focus, but like. Listen.

Everyone else hops from girl to girl, or guy to guy, and each one is filled with turmoil. This is just talking about Bertie’s friends, right?

But also, as friends, they really suck. They constantly get him to do things for them and do nothing in return.

Even the aunts and uncles don’t usually have spouses that are actually on screen!! Who knows if there were divorces or something?? Like people’s parents are hardly ever present it’s always some rich aunt or uncle, with Bertie yes but even with all his friends 😅😂

Everyone in that show is just so… detached from each other. There’s a particular moment where Bertie is driving Bingo and Tuppy home, and they’re just ranting about their women to each other and not listening to the other, and Bertie is just so done with it. I think that illustrates this point pretty well.

Anyway, Jeeves and Bertie are so not that. There’s another post somewhere on Tumblr talking about how Bertie always replies to Jeeves’ subtext and they pick up on each others moods essentially, which I think is a great point. And generally they just really like each other. Just read any of the books to see how much Bertie admires Jeeves, and read “Mr. Wooster Changes His Mind,” which is from Jeeves’ perspective, and you can see how he cares a lot for Bertie as well.

And like. They have their own language. Bertie is used to Jeeves materializing into rooms (this generally freaks out other people), he is now comfortable with it. Also he knows that whenever Jeeves is cold to him it’s almost always about his fashion choices, and that is a constant theme of how they interact. They have their quips about music sometimes. Jeeves always helps solve Bertie’s (and friends’) problems, and even when Bertie gets the short end of the stick, if it’s Jeeves’ plan he immediately is satisfied with the conclusion.

The biggest thing, though, is probably their brief break-up. Like. They had a disagreement and broke up, and then missed each other. There weren’t even any hard feelings, just longing tbh. And at the end they got back together, and stayed together, and were happy to see each other again. They clearly enjoy each others’ company. And Jeeves seemed to think that the other candidates for his employer did not even compare to Bertie.

Name another couple in this show who is as devoted as they are

Half of the women go for men for their status, the other half at whims

All of the men go for women on whims, and half of them find another girl when they have some sort of disagreement with the previous one

And even if they get back with a previous partner, there’s no guarantee that they will stay together

But Jooster is in for the long haul. The most consistent relationship, the most caring relationship, the most in-tune relationship, the most long-term relationship.

Oh yeah also with familial relations and all that. Aunt Agatha has been quoted to say she thinks Bertie should probably be put in some home. Like, that’s pretty rude and everything. She also tries to get him to marry all the time, she doesn’t care about him in a way that is healthy at least, only so much as he can be out of the way and out of trouble. Even Aunt Dahlia, who says he is her favorite nephew, and who takes advantage of his nature to get him to do things for her, insults him and throws things at him sometimes. His cousin Gussy, when he gets drunk, insults him in front of a crowd, going so far as to say he hates him. Claude and Eustice put him into the soup without a care for how mad Aunt Agatha will be at him.

Jeeves never insults him, or not his character at least. Yes, they have their disagreements about fashion and music. But Jeeves never insults his intelligence. He never calls him clumsy. He never underestimates him. Yes, he is his employee, but I have a feeling that it doesn’t have to do with that. Even when he was split up, like I mentioned, he came back and said the other employers weren’t up to snuff compared to Bertie.

Omg and then there’s all the women who think Bertie loves them/who want to marry Bertie. Of course, they all have delusions about him, because if they knew him at all they would know he is not in love with them. They would know that he’s too much of a pushover to say no to them. But they don’t. Which just shows further the disconnect everyone has in this show.

Ok referencing one more post because I like the point they have. It was something about how the actors keep changing for the side characters, unintentionally showing how Jeeves is really the only constant in Bertie’s life. Again showing the difference in their relationship vs his disconnected everyone else is. While I’m sure it’s not an intentional choice in that regard, it certainly is an interesting connection.

Anyway like I said at the beginning of this, you can interpret their relationship as romantic or platonic or somewhere in between, but it’s definitely the only solid one in the series.

So... Bertie travelled for at least five days to America, looking for his cousin just because his aunt Agatha told him. That woman is scary as fuck...

My friend and I wrote this gem (she's never read wodehouse):

“Jeeves,” I said.

“Sir?”

“This ‘Pushkin’ chap, eh, is he any good?”

“I’ve heard that his writings lean towards the depressing side, sir.”

“Oh,” I said. “Very well then. Continue on.”

Jeeves returned to polishing the tea kettle. I often wonder why that man can’t just bally well quit his job as a valet and go be prime minister or something. I don’t see what it is about me that keeps him so engaged.

“Shall I lay out our funeral attire, sir?”

“Right,” I said, remembering the blasted thing that was Aunt Agatha’s mangled corpse. “I say, it is a rather horrible situation, eh, Jeeves?”

“You are referring to, of course, Mrs. Gregson’s untimely death due to Mr. Fink-Nottle’s failure to properly contain his twenty-seven newts, followed by the loosed bear mauling her, then that sixteen-wheeler crushing her by running over her, followed by the fire and being tied to a wooden pole and beaten against the side of an apartment complex for a few hours, sir?”

“Yes, that’s the one, old fruit.”

“Then I can’t help but agree with you, sir.”

The most grim room of all was the study which belonged to the lady of the house. Even now, I look back with regret on how I dutifully led the hapless young Mr. Wooster directly into the lion’s den, like a lamb to the slaughter. Lady Worplesdon was already seated in her tall, winged chair beneath the narrow window. Mr. Wooster nervously straightened his back as he approached, worrying at his hands.

What are our views on the cummerbund?

... the rather fruity cummerbund I had bought six months ago and had never had the nerve to put on. One of those silk contrivances, you know, which you tie round your waist instead of a waistcoat, something on the order of a sash only more substantial. I had never been able to muster up the courage to put it on so far, for I knew that there would be trouble with Jeeves when I did, it being a pretty brightish scarlet.

“Oh gosh!”

I must confess that when I saw the email last night I read "Aunt Agatha.." and said I'll read after sleeping. This morning I saw the email again and leave it for later. Aunt Agatha is a lot to handle!

Bingo is back on the dance floor after his break up, Bertie is having a good time but that's the calm before the storm, and Wooster knows that. Aunt Agatha is the storm.

To people who don’t know my Aunt Agatha I find it extraordinarily difficult to explain why it is that she has always put the wind up me to such a frightful extent. I mean, I’m not dependent on her financially or anything like that. It’s simply personality, I’ve come to the conclusion.

Poor Bertie, and know he travels to France just to see Aunt Agatha trying to get a "very aroace Wooster" to a "very plain girl".

“It is young men like you, Bertie, who make the person with the future of the race at heart despair. Cursed with too much money, you fritter away in idle selfishness a life which might have been made useful, helpful and profitable. You do nothing but waste your time on frivolous pleasures. You are simply an antisocial animal, a drone. Bertie, it is imperative that you marry.”

Can I have this course, please? I'm already very antisocial (and asocial).

I feel you Bertie, I have to deal with the same type of people sometimes but I don't have a Jeeves to help me in these cases.

Where is Jeeves when you need them? He's recovering from the shock to see a very loud cummerbund. Look at that face!

Look at that body language!

>be me >re-reading Indian Summer of an Uncle >Aunt Agatha calls Jeeves “Jeeves” >be taken aback >“she literally hates him why is she being so familiar” >“it's weird that she would call him the same thing Bertie calls him” >remember that Bertie calls him Jeeves because that is his literal actual name that everyone calls him

#is this how you do a greentext meme idk i'm new to the medium #i was undecided on how i feel about the idea of bertie continuing to call jeeves jeeves after they get together #but this made me come down in favor i think #'jeeves' is an affectionate pet name when bertie says it #it represents his entire jeeves-ness #so is really the most loving thing bertie could possibly call him #i am in favor of them using first names also though i go both ways #i think realistically they'd probably use a mix of sir/jeeves and first names and pet names #anyway i think jeeves should have a last-last name for people who don't respect his regular last name #aunt agatha doesn't deserve to call him jeeves #//#jooster #jeeves and wooster #reginald jeeves #bertie wooster #jeeves books #very good jeeves #indian summer of an uncle

Finished “Aunt Agatha Makes a Bloomer” via Letters Regarding Jeeves

spoilers below

Living for the fact Bertie keeps telling us he'd really rather not with the women

It's also interesting how Bertie giving up fashion disasters as apologies is becoming routine now

I like how Jeeves absence in scheme making during the bulk of the story is revealed at the end since he figured out who the Hemingway siblings were and just kind of let it play out from there and intercepted Bertie's money on the way out
