Colbourne to Oliver:

James at the docks:

it’s exactly that. you just feel so empty

They may have been morally grey, but damn if they didn’t love each other

Reading If We Were Villains is to realize how much the characters in The Secret History don’t like each other.

Oliver "I would've done anything for you" Marks & James "You've already done so much" Farrow

My friend made some memes and I thought maybe you guys will appreciate them as much as I do.

This because same😩 Like I get it Oliver, you love him and it was the 90s so you were just blind to it at the time, but you’re old enough now.. don’t hurt Meredith more than she’s already been hurt

you can never trust a man because Oliver Marks said “I don’t know it’s like I look at you and suddenly all the sonnets make sense” to Meredith and then almost immediately after took the fall for a crime he didn’t commit and went to prison for 10 years because he was in love with James.

I used to live in St. Augustine, and this is hilariously accurate. Tour guides are so pompous.

Historical house tours are so confusing. They’ll be like, “When we head upstairs, pay special attention to the Blue Room, where Colonel Thomas J. Shmoshington carved a suggestive message on the bedpost.”

And you’ll walk into a room with bright blue walls and be like, “Oh, I guess this is the Blue Room?”

And they’ll be like, “NO! This is the Red Room! It’s called the Red Room because of the red velvet curtains and canopy bed!” Then they take you into a white room with yellow floral wallpaper trim and go, “THIS is the Blue Room!”

And when you humbly ask why it’s called the Blue Room, they’ll scoff at you like you were born yesterday (rather than in 1789) and be like, “It’s called the Blue Room because it USED TO BE blue! The entire mansion is painstakingly restored to its appearance in the year 1812, which happens to fall during the two-year span in in which Abigail Shmaddison redid the room in white and yellow in a flight of fancy. After spending some time away in a sanitarium, she regained her senses and changed it back to blue. An archaeologist found an original scrap of the yellow wallpaper beneath 13 layers of paint and we were able to match it perfectly with this pattern, which was of course developed by Q.B. Zippitydoo & Sons in London and available for purchase only in 1812. Any more questions?”

So you hold your tongue until you enter a big green room that is so incredibly green that it can’t possibly be anything but the Green Room. It has acid green walls. It has bright green curtains. It has forest green tablecloths. There are ivy motifs carved in the ceiling. Cautiously, you venture, “So this is the Green Room?”

And they say, “NO! This is the parlor!”

Me waiting for someone to bring up “If We We’re Villains” in casual conversation so I can finally feel something again

No matter how mad Ed is I don’t think he could resist Stede giving him The Look and saying “Kiss me, Edward”

The Ring-bearer is setting out on the Quest of Mount Doom. On you who travel with him, no oath, nor bond is laid to go further than you will. Farewell. Hold to your purpose. May the blessings of Elves and Men and all Free Folk go with you.
