Why Do I Have To Fall In Love With Teas Which Aren’t Available In My Area?

I would love to make a film adaptation of The Secret History that starts really aesthetic, with beautiful shots and dramatic lighting, mood music and wonderful sets. But after the murder of bunny and after their lives start to go down hill it slowly becomes less and less beautiful and much harsher, much more realistic and graphic and ugly, until it ends up extremely simple, no grand angles or romantic lighting, just the horror of what’s happening and what they’ve done. The costumes and makeup would also go from eccentric and beautiful (perfect makeup, suites that are far too neat and shoes too clean, perfect hair, aesthetic™️ dark circles) to how they actually look (unshaven, bad skin from constantly drinking and smoking and doing drugs, fancy clothes that need to see the hot side of an iron, hair that desperately needs brushing, etc). This would happen to bunny sooner though, in line with the whole arc leading to his death. The only person who might not get this treatment is Camila since I feel she was romanticized the entire time and always a version altered through Richard’s Male Gaze™️, never truly known. Hell, she might get even more romanticized, idk. and yes, it would look both excruciatingly 80s and weirdly Victorian. Anyways I put too much though into this, Goodnight. 

((((((And yes Judy Poovey would look absolutely ROCKIN at all times)))))

Hi!

fuck you, my child is completely fine!

your child romanticises the idea of running far away and completely changing their personality, looks & soul as a way of coping with having no control over their life & being generally dissatisfied with who they have become

I can’t help but wonder what The Secret History would have been like to read had I not immediately lost all respect for Julian Morrow as soon as it was mentioned that he had a drawer full of Montblancs. (bc... come on that’s about the tackiest thing I’ve ever heard of)

Whether or not the author is dead, the book is a dead thing.

What are you studying? Which year are you in?

Thank you for the ask! I am studying physics for school, and I am at approximately third year standing.

I am full of poetry now. Rot and poetry. Rotten poetry.

Julian Morrow is just Lord Henry if Lord Henry were somehow more of a coward, change my mind
