Finished reading the book and I felt compelled to summarise my thoughts on Lomeli/Lawrence
Somebody give this man a hug or somethingš
yes i know the baratheon brothers are all representations of the different types of toxic masculinity. im still doing fuck marry kill with them
jekyll and hyde except its how i pictured them the first time i read the book like 7 years ago
Mundane things about my version of the Gatsby gang
Nick sometimes sleeps on the ground instead of his bed. He sleeps more soundly that way
If he isnāt needed, Gatsby sleeps in til past noon if he can, he has the WORST sleep schedule
Tom and Jordan- even if in the same room- will almost never engage with the other unless to talk about sports, the funny pages (something they both like reading), or to jeer at someone elseās expense between whispers and laughs
Meyer has that grandfatherly āHave you eaten? Are you hungry? Come let me fetch you somethingā way about him around Gatsby (heās partially the reason Gatsby has put on extra weight but Gatsby himself over indulges in food)
Daisy is the only one who doesnāt smoke
But Daisy can throw back straight whiskey and keep her demeanor well enough(Tom likes that about her)
Daisy can actually shoot really well and knows how to ride side saddle (Tom REALLY loves that about her)
Nick and Daisy- despite being raised Catholic- are both atheists. Daisy wonāt bring it and Nick occasionally mocks believers under his breath
Gatsby legally shouldnāt be on the roadā¦.
Gatsby will pronounce the same word differently throughout a conversation
Nick canāt hear that well out his scarred ear
Jordan has a strong sweet tooth
Gatsby has a fear of dogs
Tom is a mommaās boy, big time
Daisy doesnāt like blondes and that they get so much attention for being blonde
Despite seeming tough, Jordan scares easily. She would not last in a haunted house attraction
Nick studied Law before switching to English for his degree. Thatās actually how he met Tom, by sharing some classes together. Despite arguing Nick shouldāve stayed in Law, Tom does often ask how Nickās writing is coming along
Meyer doesnāt like pets at all, just finds them dirty
Nick canāt pick Gatsby up but Gatsby can easily pick up Nick
Nick caught on quickly to Gatsbyās Sunday workout routine and spies on him from the foliage border between their houses. Gatsby does feel heās being watched but never sees who it is
Iām just saying if she ever plays Penelope of Ithaca I am in the crowd vying for her hand
