The realest part of The Secret History is Henry saying he wanted ‘to live without thinking’

AU where kitsey and theo call it quits because her fiancé is a closeted homosexual, and things with tom quietly die out because, frankly, he’s kind of a dick. now kitsey’s on her own, frantically stuffing her schedule with party planning and pilates and pretending she doesn’t cry herself to sleep every night while ALL her friends get married and have babies and move on without her. she’s the last one. she’s so, so lonely and feels like a complete failure, because all she’s ever wanted is a picture perfect little family. the kind you see on j crew magazine covers, or whatever.

but then one day she’s out grabbing a coffee and she bumps into a redheaded woman who looks… strangely familiar? “oh!” redhead says. “kitsey! you probably don’t remember me. i was at your engagement party? it’s pippa. theo’s friend?” and kitsey realizes that she does know who this is, and asks what pippa’s doing in nyc—didn’t she live in london?

pippa sheepishly explains how things with everett fell apart and she’s moved back to stay with hobie for a while, just until she’s on her feet again. except kitsey isn’t really listening anymore, because pippa’s eyes are this ridiculous honey-gold, and her hair is unfairly beautiful, and suddenly kitsey’s having thoughts that make her wonder if theo’s gayness rubbed off on her a bit.

kitsey impulsively says they should get together sometime, which pippa says she’d love. she’s been lonely too, because most of her friends were also everett’s friends, so things are awkward now.

they start going for breakfast once a week to catch up. then pippa starts coming to kitsey’s dinner parties. kitsey finds herself at hobart and blackwell fairly often under the guise of shopping for antiques, but really, she’s only there to talk with pippa, who reminds her of a well-adjusted theo. pippa, in turn, finds kitsey bubbly and kind and so easy to talk to, one of the few people who can take her mind off how much she hates new york.

theo witnesses all of this. he knows exactly what’s happening and it’s the sole reason why his nightly substance abuse has become his morning and nightly substance abuse.

boris and kitsey, shockingly, end up pretty good friends. boris and pippa adore each other, and boris and kitsey see each other often enough sneaking out of theo's and pippa's rooms that they kind of consider each other friends. and then at some point boris starts talking with her, and with characteristic charm and philosophical talks, suddenly boris and kitsey are getting lunch together biweekly. boris and pippa smoke outside the shop together and talk about god-knows-what for hours, you can't find kitsey without pippa, and theo's genuinely going insane. that sweater he got kitsey back when they were engaged? he's seen it on pippa, boris, and pippa again in the last week. every night he's in bed smoking complaining to boris about how pippa and kitsey are hooking up. boris, who's heard from both kitsey and pippa separately that theyre the biggest lesbians on the planet and they want to spend forever with each other, nods and goes, "is terrible, yes." that night he gets up to get some water from the kitchen and runs into kitsey and he tells her all about it. theo is starting to get suspicious. he's like 99% sure the three of them have a gossip circle about him and he's right.

when pippa and kitsey finally get engaged it’s a big deal. all of manhattan is talking about it (kitsey barbour? engaged to a woman? who would’ve thought). the barbours are surprised but they accept it gracefully and are pretty supportive. kitsey didn’t want to out theo, so their breakup came out of nowhere and went unexplained. obviously, for the barbours and the barbour-adjacents, this is the explanation: kitsey is a lesbian.

but the funniest part about all of this is that, somehow, theo doesn’t register the engagement until right before the wedding. he’s too busy dealing with work and his obnoxious boyfriend and his pill addiction to notice kitsey and pippa making preparations. he’s oblivious to them discussing dresses, venues, floral arrangements, etc. even when it’s being done right in front of him. boris is the one who hands over their rsvp (theo listed as his plus-one, of course), so theo never lays eyes on it. he doesn’t have a clue.

it doesn’t click until about a week before the ceremony, when boris comes home with a new suit and asks if theo can hurry up and figure out what color tie he’s going to wear so they can match.

"bunny's about the only person in the world who can make henry laugh." "and before you could spit it it was henry this, henry that, he's changing his major from whatever the hell it was to ancient greek." "the poem was called 'with rue my heart is laden'... which bunny had known by heart." "in many ways it's hard to imagine that he'll ever get over this. he and edmund were closer than i think you realise." "he'd been almost inexplicably fond of bunny... i was fairly sure his death had affected him more than he let show." JUST KILL ME.
