now that im finished with gatsby i just have to like write down my thoughts and then make them all cute and neat and stuff then im gonna start gone with the wind
#dorian reads classics#great gatsby <3#im still thinking abt this btw like idk if ill be able to focus in class due to gatsby#i really#i love the story of two lonely souls who find a strange comfort in being lonely together while one has accepted his fate of solitude and#is grateful when the occasional person comes into his life for whatever short chapter theyll feature in and the other soul actively attempt#to fight against his fate of solitude (all this while Nick honestly could have gotten away from his solitude by being friends#with Tom and Daisy and Jordan yet in the end he decides to stick with his only true companion) while Gatsby falls farther and farther#from his goal of being happy (or what he perceives as happiness because that's all he's known and all his mind can accept as happiness) wit#Daisy. IM SICK.#its really sad that in the very end when it all really truly matter Nick was the only one to stay by his side#and even sicker that Nick couldn't even bear to stay in a West Egg that didnt have Gatsby in it#like ??? what was Francis THINKING when he wrote this OUGH#he had to know that neurodivergent little creatures would overthink and analyze the crap out of it....#AND HONESTLY GATSBY HURTS ALOT MORE WHEN YOU THINK ABT THE FACT THAT FRANCIS LIVED THIS#this is HIS life he wrote this FROM EXPERIENCE and that hurts sosososo much#like people really only care for you when you can offer them something....
