More Henry/Julia? Shocking, I know! I may be too deep in writing Seaside rn, but I half expected them to explore Henry being nervous about the baby after his heartbreaking “I’m broken” line 😭 And I don’t know if they’ll actually include the 1918 election, but I hope they do! #wednesday100
The General Election after the enactment of the Representation of the People Act 1918 was held 8 weeks after Claire Elizabeth Beauchamp made her grand entrance into the world. “This is history in the making, my little darling,” Julia said as she bundled tiny Claire into her pram. Julia couldn’t yet vote — she wasn’t thirty, the mature age deemed for women to know their own minds (in comparison to a man’s twenty-one years) — but she could still stroll down to the polling booths to see the women casting their first vote. “And you, sweet girl, have a bright future, indeed.” Some small part of Henry had dreaded Julia’s news. As much as he’d hoped for the very thing — their own family, the love between him and Julia ever growing — he’d also heard Julia’s sobs in the night, after his nightmare. He was certain his own child fearing him would shatter Henry beyond repair. But then Claire arrived, cracking their hearts open with new love, and as she grew… “She wants you, darling.” …It was in his arms that Claire found solace, laying her sweet, trusting head on his shoulder after a bad dream. “Don’t be afraid, sweetheart. Dada’s got you.” Her mother was — endearingly — the forgetful sort. Julia lost count of the amount of times she’d hear her mother’s opening refrain of “Saint Anthony, help me…” before Julia would fetch whatever she’d misplaced — a shawl, the day’s post, her spectacles. “You never miss a thing,” her mother would always marvel, cupping Julia’s cheek. “I think that’s why the Lord gave you to me.” She never prayed to Saint Anthony herself until it was her mother’s pendant around Julia’s neck, but the things she’d lost — parents, a home, belonging to another soul in this world — weren’t things that could be restored.

1) ELLEN CAITRIONA SILEAS MACKENZIE!! Everyone should bend the knee to her. While it took a little long to get there, seeing her wield her knowledge as skillfully as any of the swordsmen is truly something to behold. I have a new respect for her 🙌
2) "What use is a sword when what's needed is a pen"

3) Between hearing Henry describing Julia ("she can make everything seem right in the world when she looks at you") to Julia sacrificing herself for her baby, the last 5 min BROKE. ME. 😭😭😭
4) Hemione play out Julia struggling over her position / what she needs to do, paired with the VO. So well done
