The Wings of the Dove

The Wings of the Dove    [trailer]

An impoverished woman who has been forced to choose between a privileged life with her wealthy aunt and her journalist lover, befriends an American heiress. When she discovers the heiress is attracted to her own lover and is dying, she sees a chance to have both the privileged life she cannot give up and the lover she cannot live without.

Aching romantic drama in perfection. A threesome would've been the obvious solution. Alas, it wasn't meant to be.

fandom people should send their death threats and baseless accusations at ME instead of regular people. i’ve been forced by fate to read the entirety of The Wings of the Dove, Henry James (1902) and it had a profound impact on me.

By which I mean I experienced what Achilles must have felt being dipped into the despairing waters of the river Styx and I came out broken, beaten down, depressed and hopeless, but impervious to regular forms of harm. come on baby call me an abuser for blorboifying the cringelord murder guy in your pet tv show

the wings of the dove is just like challengers if instead of tennis it was scamming and if instead of everyone reaching catharsis after winning/losing against each other for the first time one of them died of a mysterious disease and her money broke the other two up

Xiao had seen Venti’s suit. He’d also seen him wearing it in a photo Venti sent him from the tailor’s. He wasn’t expecting anything to be different when he turned. He was an idiot. It was night and day. In the mid-morning sunlight, surrounded by green grass and vast blue sky, Venti was ethereal. Xiao’s heart lurched. His eyes burned.

from "for the rest of our lives" by @delirious-dove
