Lichfield, England (by Dave Fieldhouse)

“ｅｎｔｒｅ   ｃｈｉｅｎ   ｅｔ   ｌｏｕｐ”

literally ‘between dog and wolf’, idiom from medieval latin inter canem et lupum

this expression is used to describe a specific time of day, just before night, twilight, when the light is so dim you can’t distinguish a dog from a wolf. However it’s not all about levels of light. It also expresses that limit between the familiar, the comfortable, versus the unknown and the dangerous (or between the domestic and the wild, the hope and fear).

Woman against candle light, 1905

i still think the best thing about lizzie/darcy is how almost nobody knew it was happening like it was SCANDALOUS and charged and they constantly oscillated between wanting to jump each other or jump each other’s bones and everyone was too busy watching the vanilla trainwreck of bingley/jane and the victorian equivalent of a nuclear bomb that was lydia and wickham to realize that a whole THING was going on right in front of their respective perfectly boiled vegetables

#like it SENDS me that at the very end jane #who was the sister and confidante and like the one person lizzie wuld have gone down fighting for #literally was like rip bro i’m sorry you had to see darcy :/ #and lizzie is like jane *tears up* i want to sit on his face so bad (via @powerbottomblake)
