Disclaimer: I don't own anything in relation to this.
A/N: Written for ladyeni for International Women's Day 2012. She wanted Rose/Doctor, penguins and angst
Summary: Jane Bennet is much more perceptive than people give her credit for.

”I think Mr Darcy rather fancies you,” Jane tells Elizabeth, only to listen to her pearling laughter at that statement.

”Oh, Jane,” Liz says, reaching out to gently touch her cheek. ”You are so sweet. But no, just… no,” she says, bursting into giggles again and doing a show of wiping her eyes.

Jane thinks maybe her sister is protesting just a tad too much, but she doesn’t say anything. She waits.

”Mr Darcy proposed to me,” Elizabeth will say, months later and Jane will listen and not refer back to that moment, only smile and gasp in the appropriate places and secretly think oh, Lizzie, I told you so.

You see, at least when it comes to her sister, Jane Bennet is always right.

Jane is seen as such a naive person, but she's quite sharp when it's about Elizabeth, isn't she? xD

I always figured, who knows Liz better than Jane? :D well, maybe apart from their dad, and even he has some troubles!

I can totally see Jane saying that! Her selfless personality makes her care for others more than herself, and if someone really has any kind of feelings for Lizzy, Jane would notice.

This was very cute. Of course Jane would notice before Lizzy. :)
