I absolutely love the ending of The Talented Mr Ripley.
I love that Tom was able to trust Peter enough to tell him about his past and I love that Peter basically said "Y'know what, I love you no matter what. You are smart, sexy, talented and Dickie and Freddie were kind of assholes, so they should've seen it coming." And the next day they watch the sunset on the boat together. And when Meredith shows up, Tom is all like "Hey, look who I found on the boat?" and Peter played along "Such a coincidence we were on this boat together, and yet Dickie and I have decided are getting married next month" and Meredith was all like "I can't blame either of you. Can I be maid of honour?" and she was and they lived happily ever after.
making a talented mr. ripley x phantom of the opera au where it's a gay lovestory between peter & tom. may or may not talk about it here if anyone is interested. if not I'll just post things out of context and you will be forced to suffer and listen
We need more characters like these two. Finds a guy who killed or nearly-killed the last man he loved. And are like yeah but I like him and surely he won't kill me. And then get killed.
