Retro_Icontest: Tropes

[aurora_amethyst]

I was initially planning a larger set for this round, but I've been doing mentoring at work so I've been more exhausted than usual. But I had so much fun coming up with this set for retro_icontest!

Emma (2009)

1: Walls of Text: Accurate yet an understatement when it comes to Miss Bates who is extremely chatty.
2: Person as a Verb: A quote from the book. Emma is complaining to herself on how Mrs. Elton is going on and on about Jane Fairfax and hopes that Mrs. Elton doesn't do the same with her (Emma).
3: Wrong Genre Savvy: Emma recommends The Romance of the Forest (a Gothic novel) to Harriet Smith. (Not sure I agree with what tvtropes.org says about the topic).
4: Preppy Name: Mrs. Elton's given name, Augusta, is an ostentatious name given her position before and after she married. Also, the name Augusta comes from George III's daughter Charlotte Augusta.
5: Shipper on Deck: Pretty self explanatory. Emma considers herself a matchmaker of sorts.

Those are gorgeous, I love the text on all of them. (i personally found putting text on those icons easier than usual, probably because i was trying to explain the tropes on the icons. :D)

I'm glad you had fun with the theme. <3

The lightning one is absolutely striking! The matte coloring in all of them is very beautiful.
