What ho! Another "it's so canon!" moment.

This one comes C.O. [livejournal.com profile] tootsiemuppet -- her internet is on the fritz and I am posting in her stead.

From Thank You, Jeeves:

(to Pauline:)"Mr Wooster is an agreeable young gentleman, but I would describe him as essentially one of Nature's bachelors."


Yes, I think we've heard that euphemism before ^^

Others:

"I was at school with Bertie Wooster," said Chuffy. "I like to think of it. At private school and also at Eton and after that at Oxford. He was loved by everybody."
*snerk*

"The attitude of fellows towards finding girls in their bedroom shortly after midnight varies. Some like it. Some don't. I didn't."
"one of Nature's bachelors". Right. Got it. ^_~

'Your own idea?'
'No, Jeeves's.'
I could not restrain a wistful sigh.
'Jeeves is a wonder.'

I'm sure he is.

^_^Unless Jeeves gave a lot of subtle hints. I think that was why I loved that 'Fippy Elbows In' story so much, because it was entirely believable (on top of being omg so well written)

I liked that one too. It had the perfect timbre.
