everyday i think about how henry could have put on a whole show of grief at bunny's funeral. he could have read a long-winded speech, hell, he could have even said "this poem was one of bunny's favourites" before he read it. that simple acknowledgement to let everyone at that funeral know he cared.
but he didn't. he read that poem, knowing full well it did not suit whatever 'aesthetic' he and julian had formulated, knowing that he'd be criticised for it. knowing that the only people who knew what it meant, were him, bunny, and the rest of the greek class.
i've seen some people have said that him smearing the dirt across his chest at the funeral was an 'act' of sorts to show how much he was grieving. but i don't think i could disagree more. henry was sick out of his mind at that funeral. i think the funeral wasn't just overwhelming for him mentally and physically, but also emotionally. he had to grieve once, then he had to grieve a second time, knowing that he killed his best friend.
everyday i think about it man. i love these freaks

Parasite's paradise
crazy how donna tartt (author of the secret history) and bret easton ellis (author of american psycho) went to the same college (bennington) AND were good friends and then went on to write two of the most misinterpreted satire novels by the media
im actually kinda proud of this one..
the speedpaint takes 10 business days to finish
Please see the symbolism please see the symbolism Iβll draw anything you want /hjβ¦.
βstudying like henry winterβ right so flunking and skipping the sats on purpose and dropping out and doing nothing else but reading for pleasure and generally being a lackluster student
more than i wish
i could reach inside of myself
and remove the part of me
that is wrong and hurting
the part that has ruined
so many good days
i wish i could fix for you
every single thing in your life
that makes it less than
you wish it could be
