But Lizzie Bennett is still a character in a story. I’m sort of imagining this FictionalWorld as a relatively close copy of our own entire world, it’s just that the people who populate it are characters in well known stories, instead of just the regular people who populate our world. If there’s a whole separate world of characters from fairytales, and another whole separate world of characters from sci-fi stories, then why not also another whole separate world of characters from literary greats? Not saying that they’ll explore those stories on the show, just trying to establish a concept for a separate world that could resemble ours very closely, and still not make Bae a liar about not having come to our world first.
I know what you’re saying and I do like the idea of FictionalLondon, I just wonder if works like P and P is one too many toys to play with and it would have to fit the theme of that episode or arc. They can’t just bring in Lizzie or Darcy just because they can. I think that’s been one small problem in S2, the introduction of a character that maybe didn’t work or serve the overall story (Jack for instance did nothing for me and I’d be very happy to never hear about her again)
