“I was so exhausted I could hardly figure out where my own pocket was- I fumbled for it. Sure enough, it was Kitsey, jingling with emoji. “🖤🖤🖤 Hi Popsy 🖤 runningan hour late ❌❗️✏️🌸☘️✌️❗️❗️❗️ Hope I caught you! Forrest & Celia holding dinner, meet you there 9pm, love you mostest! kits ❤️❌❤️❌❤️❌.”
Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch, page 640
#I know what you’re thinking hey dog quotes! this doesn’t mention dogs!#well no#BUT#Kitsey calling Theo popsy sounds an awful lot like Popsky which is what Hobie calls popper#also it just sounds like a nickname for popper not Theo#also isn’t popsy a term for like your pops? aka your dad?#or a little girl#either way a weird choice for her fiancée#so either it’s commecting Theo to popper again#OR it’s connecting him to her dad which he’s been compared to before#like there was a moment when they first reconnected he guided her with her elbow which he learned from watching her dad
