It's all a question of
how you might choose to look at it.
Tabby. Well, if that's how you feel.
Sometimes.
About Gondal?
When we can.
Emily as well? You've been here
with her more than I have, surely.
Never?
Do you? Write?
Still? Not so much.
What about the infernal world?
I relinquished my pen.
Why? Because it frightened me.
Threatened to make
the real world seem...
pointless.
And colourless and drab.
And that way lies madness.
You know, the real world is what it
is, but we must live in it, so...
You should write, if it makes you
And I think, as well...
when I got that reply from Southey -
"Literature cannot be the business
of a woman's life."
At the time I brushed it off.
But the longer I've dwelt on it,
the older I've got,
the more I've thought...
..what's the point?
The point...for me...
..I'm never more alive
than when I write.
You're the same, surely.
But with no prospect of publication?
It's just playing at it, isn't it?
Are we playing then, or what?
Does it ever bother you
that we might be getting...
a bit old? For that.
You weren't saying that
two weeks ago in York. No, well...
I didn't want to spoil things
in York.
It's something
I've been thinking for a while.
Well, what did you come out
with me for then? To talk.
What about? Things. At home.
What?
The future!
What are we
without Papa and Branwell?
Papa won't... He won't live forever.
And he's blind,
and that house, our house,
it belongs to
the Church trustees, not us.
And Branwell! What's he doing?
What's he thinking
that he has such a hopeless grasp
on the realities of what comes next?
Are we nothing to him?
Does he even see us?
If we don't make
something of ourselves,
and God knows we've been trying,
I've been trying...
I was a governess at that
ludicrous place for five years!
What will we do, Emily?
What will...
What will we be?
It was when I came back
from Roe Head.
And he was there, at home,
Branwell.
And he wasn't supposed to be.
You'd gone. You and Charlotte.
You'd gone off back to Roe Head.
And he was supposed to be in London,
trying to get his foot in the door
at the Royal Academy.
That's when I knew
what a liar he was.
Sharpers? Thieves! So what?
They attacked you? You were robbed?
Four of them?! I think four.
In broad daylight? That's...
what happened?
You didn't even get there? No!
It was just after I arrived
at the coaching inn
at St Martin Le Grand,
and I knew my way around.
From the maps in my head.
But London...the whole thing is
so much bigger than I imagined.
