"Wholly inattentive to her sister's feelings, Lydia flew aout the house in restless ecstasy, calling for every one's congratulations, and laughing and talking with more violence than ever; whilst the luckless Kitty continued in the parlour repining at her fate in terms as unreasonable as her accent was peevish" (Chapter 18/41).
EPIC FAIL as a sister. Lydia doesn't seem to have one ounce of compassion for her sister, as she dances around the house after being invited to Brighton by Mrs. Forster. Lydia is unaware of her sister's jealousy and even if she was, she probably wouldn't care. While Lydia and Kitty have a connection and get along, they do not have the kind of friendship between Jane and Elizabeth. Jane and Elizabeth trust each other with everything, racing home to tell the other what has happened. Where as with Lydia and Jane, its more of a competition about who get flirt with the most officers. Lydia and Kitty obviously don't have a close relationship and the connection between Jane and Elizabeth seems rarer and stronger than before.
