@ people who carry bags everywhere what do you put in them what is there to bring other than chapstick, keys, phone and maybe a tampon why are you packing a suitcase to be outside for 5 hours
i don't like pop literature analysis of Wuthering Heights that are like. oh you shouldn't romanticize Heathcliff and Cathy relationship it's like dark romance it sells you a negative view of what love should be about whatver. first of all "not romanticize" i'm sorry my reading of this gothic novel isn't pure enough for you. second! heathcliff is nooot a fucking dark brooding mysterious love interest. the only person to see him this way is Isabella and she's uh pretty clearly wrong and the narrative doesn't shy away from telling you this.
he is! catherine's! childhood friend! she doesn't see him as a handsome mysterious stranger she sees him as her other half and as someone who was there for her and loved her when she was a kid running around and being dirty and improper and deeply disliked by everyone in her house including her father for daring to not live up to the gendered excpectations of what she should be. and she misses being that kid so so so bad, and she hates married life and she wants to go back home even though home was awful and abusive and she ran away from it because at leaaaast she was allowed to be herself there. and heathcliff is home.
and heathcliff isn't obsessed by Cathy the way people describe him she's not a thing to own. she's the only person to have ever loved him apart from his dad for like a few years. she's the only one that doesn't constantly dehumanize him or wait for him to turn into the savage beast they all think he is. he's deeply alienated from the society he grows up in because of his skin color and she! doesn't! care!
sure sure their love is bad for them and those around but you know why it is that way? not because they're toxic or whatever (i mean sure, in part, but) but because they're not fucking allowed to love each others. because god knows and Heathcliff knows and Cathy knows they could never get married. because the only way for Catherine to hope to help him is to marry a nice guy she kind of likes because as a woman she's powerless because even if Heathcliff comes back a gentleman he's only ever be perceived as a crook! because even if he owns "Wuthering Heights" he's "cheated Hareton out of his birthright", because Heathcliff doesn't and will never have a birthright!!
like. Heathcliff is a pretty terrible person. Cathy is sometimes unkind. i wouldn't want that relationship. but you know. if they weren't operating under the rules of the Racist Patriarchal Crushing Machine, they'd maybe get to be kinder to others and each others and themselves! They're not at fault for wanting to be with each others actually it's not a great woke reading to go "wellll they should have moved on and accepted their respective shitty fucking place in society". i'm glad you've moved on from being attracted to insane dangerous men, but then also iiiii think you're missing some themes. maybe.
fantasy is when currency is referred to as "gold" and sci fi is when currency is referred to as "credits"
