whenever i remember ‘the secret history’ is set in the 1980s, i like to think of camilla having a blazer with massive shoulder pads, richard getting a mullet (which very quickly is cut off when he goes to hampden), and bunny having the most gaudy Hawaiian shirts.

there's something in henry's choice to forgo reading some ancient greek text at bunny's funeral as was expected of him and choosing instead to read a simple poem that he knew bunny truly enjoyed.

that something is love, by the way. the tragedy is that henry loved him.

there's also something in julian's disapproval of henry's choice of eulogy.

I wish the moment of Henry getting distressed after accidentally killing a duck was longer because I find it so funny. What did he say? What did the others say? Why was he so distressed by this? This is the same guy who killed two people and poisoned his neighbour's dog.

love charles x richard because it’s two guys who want each other bad but they’re busy having an internalized homophobia off

Richard's tie with men hunting deer on it, the maenads being described as "more like deer than human being," the twins being "startled as a pair of deer," Camilla believing she was a deer during the bacchanal, "khairei, deerslayers," the strange deerlike animal that ran out in front of Francis in the road, how Camilla and Charles' uncle used to hunt and cut up deer.
