also henry when greek letters are used in physics: this world is doomed
rip henry winter you would’ve hated those preppy "fonts" that use greek letters as an aesthetic
You wanna know my theory? Julian played a bigger part than Richard understood. The classics club was Julian’s own personal Greek story. He’s built these young adults up until they thought of themselves as better, he was selective and chose only students whose parents/situations were vulnerable. They treated him as if he was their god, and for Henry I think he was his favorite as all stories have one. He slowly pulled their strings, made them think they were smart and clever making the decisions and choices they did. The incest, the murder, the damn bacchanal of course the creations can’t hide from their creator. Julian knew they killed Bunny, I think he even gave himself a way out (the letter), abandoning them after they thought they were safe as his own twisted retribution or punishment.
TSH spoilers:
I feel like we as a fandom do not talk about Henry’s symbolism in TSH enough. Like, that dude is the literal embodiment of death, and I just think it’s so damn cool. I mean, his whole obsession with language and literature stemmed from the fact that he almost died in a car accident. And then every death we see in the book (the farmer’s, Bunny’s, and his very own) is directly at his hands. The others were accomplices, sure, but Henry’s the one who takes action every time. And in Francis’s failed suicide and Richard’s near death in the epilogue, they both see Henry, not Bunny or Charles or what have you.
Henry is not only obsessed with death, he IS death. He’s the reaper who’s friends toy with their mortality all the time through drugs and booze. The reason they all admire him is not only because of his size and stature and brilliance; it’s because he’s dangerous. If beauty is indeed terror, than he’s the most beautiful of them all. They all have the life preservation skills of a fly, so of course they love Henry. And of course his actions constantly bring them closer to danger and death.

I saw a video once that tried to claim that Chuuya accidentally became popular, and I actually laughed. Like no. Nobody gives a character a hat, gloves, red hair, and a choker without at least expecting they'd be popular. No one makes a character short, a wine lover, loud, and a Mafia executive if they didn't suspect they'd be popular. you don't make a character the ex partner to the other most popular character and have them bicker like children if you thought, "eh, no one cares about this guy." No one gives a character the power of gravity manipulation and the power to create black holes when they go feral if they thought, "yeah, pretty mid-tier character" NO ONE MAKES A CHARACTER JUMP OFF A PLANE AND FIGHT A DRAGON—
TW: kinda gory??
Watched Pet Sementary (1989) and decided to bring back my Zombiezai concept and give him a zombie cat :P
Appreciation post for all the beginner artists who work hard despite the AI looming over us. You are fabulous. You are precious. Keep up the hard work, you are needed.
was it casual when we got into such a bad argument that we then began to overturn furniture, I called you a fag, and then began to sob till I fell asleep on your bed (quote under the cut)
Chuuya is the only man alive who could go toe-to-toe with a god, crack the earth in half, and still lose a verbal fight with Dazai.
Every time he breathes, Dazai’s ghost voice whispers ‘you’re 5’3” and your blood pressure is rising.’
The man can’t win.
