Gossip Girl ~Wondergems (literally): the ruby ring and the heart pin.
As requested by P. In the books, Nate gave Blair the ruby ring and she gave him the heart pin. Or so I’m told; I’d love to read the passages where these were mentioned.
DMTS is wonderful, amazing, etc for indulging me like this. Why would I do without my GGA peeps? Both tokens were actually gifts from Nate to Blair in the book. Here are some excerpts from the book “It had to be you” that explain the beautiful ~wondergems story. READ IT.
“There.” Nate pointed to a small, plain gold heart pendant hanging from a black silk cord. It was simple and elegant and the black cord was actually kind of sexy. He could imagine it dangling from Blair’s neck when they did it. It would look cool—a nice contrast—with the white cotton bra she was wearing. “That’s it.” He signaled the saleslady behind the display. “That’s what I’m getting for you.”
….
“She was dying to tell him that she had sewn the gold heart he’d bought her at Tiffany into the inside of one of the sweater’s sleeves so that he would always be wearing her heart on his sleeve. But Nate would only want to cut the heart out and make her wear it again. She liked it better where it was, hidden against his adorable skin.”
“Hey, where’s the heart I gave you?” he asked suddenly, as if reading her mind. Blair lifted her head. “In a safe place.”
Her heart on his sleeve, indeed.
….
“”Since the summer got all messed up and you don’t wear the heart anymore,” Nate said, pressing the little robin’s egg blue Tiffany box into Blair’s hand. She tore the lid off the box and snapped open the black velvet ring box. Inside was a delicate brushed gold band set with a gorgeous deep red ruby. It was the most beautiful ring she’d ever seen. She shoved it onto the ring finger of her left hand and threw her arms around Nate’s neck. In the movie that was her life, he’d just asked her to marry him, and the answer was yes, oh, yes. Definitely—yes!”
She was so glad she’d found another use for that ugly Elsa Peretti gold heart pendant. The ruby ring was so much better.
Someone asked about Blair’s ruby ring and I already replied but I thought I’d post it here in case anyone else was curious. :)
When the bride comes in and she makes her giant grand entrance, I like to glance back at the poor bastard getting married. Cause even though I think he’s an idiot for willingly entering into the last legal form of slavery, he always looks really, really happy.
At the show’s 100th-episode party, I presented director Mark Piznarsky with a concern I’ve seen shared here by some fans — that the wedding-centric outing will offer little for those folks notfascinated with all the Blair/Dair/Chair drama. If you happen to fall into that camp, he said there’s still good reason to tune in on Jan. 30. “Listen, everybody has sort of been with everybody [on this show], so everybody has feelings about [the wedding] – Is Blair going to get married? Will she go with Chuck? Will she go with Dan? And her first love was Nate, in the pilot, and they’re all there,” he noted. “So while [the episode] is kind of centered around the wedding, yes, there are big beats for everybody.” Now, as for whether the wedding itself goes off without a hitch, one of the cast members I interviewed did make reference to something that happens at the reception… Hmm….
