O.o Well, what have I been doing all my life. I'm not even sure. Bluebeard's wife (always unnamed) is superior in every way.
I wrote Elena as Bluebeard's wife in this piece last year (which you read, but may have more of an impact now that you know the story) and am still in love with it.
Also - Angela Carter's The Bloody Chamber is by and far the best modern adaptation of Bluebeard to exist ever ever ever. (plus she's boss)
DO I LOOK LIKE I NEED ANOTHER CHARACTER TO RUIN MY LIFE? Yes, actually.
Because I neglected her hats:::
Also her everything:
I'm pretty sure her existence proves that there is a divine power somewhere.
Hart of Dixie is like what Mystic Falls could be... without vampires... and once everyone is in their early-30's and realizing that there's no such thing as a fairy tale. Lemon Breeland is the Caroline Forbes of her Southern town - only all grown up and having to deal with the possibility that she can be more than a Southern-Belle if she wants to. Which is really, really hard. And so she cries a lot. And she schemes. And she's still HBIC no matter how many times her town sees her fall.
Basically she is perfect. And yes, you need her in your life, ruining everything and being flawless.
