Дайте мне немного счастья и я никогда не буду тонуть

Trans Regulus who got really upset when he found out he was the first guy James ever liked because

“what if he doesn’t actually like guys and just subconsciously thinks I look like a girl”

It got so bad Sirius had to tell him about James (unknowingly) having an obsessive crush on Frank Longbotton in third year

I think it would have decimated Henry Winter to know that 40 years later, I find his passion for Homer basic. I was always more of an Aeschylus fan but beyond that if you want to pontificate on the nature of beauty and the ephemerality of life, then pursue more worthy periods and places. His inherently sexist and racist elitism has blinded him and worse rendered him boring.

i love skk so much because theyre just so stupid, 15!skk is by far the two stupidest creatures i have seen, theyre smart apart from eachother but anytime theyre nearby they gain like -70 to intelligence and +50 to homosexuality and i think its very cutieful because they ACT like stupid teenagers and they ARE stupid teenagers.

Я ненавижу этот день

It’s very funny to me that the inciting incident of The Secret History is the bacchanal but we never actually get to see a bacchanal. It occurs to me that this book easily could have had a supernatural element and indeed from any other character’s perspective it likely would have. But because Richard is our narrator, we never need to question if Dionysus was really there or if the bloody cleansing was really necessary because Richard despite being a liar and generally unreliable narrator is still the most firmly grounded in reality of most of the classics class.
