The audacity of Bunny saying “every single f-word I have ever known has been obsessed with food” when he couldn’t even starve for the bacchanalia

teen wolf is a show that aired in 2011 on mtv and is about a bunch of Only Children bullying a guy whose family recently died in a fire

we don’t talk enough about claudia plotting lestat’s murder while lestat bickers with her and louis is just trying to get into the holiday spirit

Richard's unhinged energy is the most entertaining part for me beside the murders. Like the guy is an inspiration for chaotic people. He lies about his family life, pretends his rich father has business in oil (who irl has a petrol pump), lies to his part time employer to get money, goes on a 90s teen movie shopping spree, takes any free item from Judy, lies about going to a prep school, lives on a diet of wine and more wine, takes any pill anyone gives him, joins a cultish greek gang, lets Bunny die an aesthetically pleasing death and not to forget.....does cocaine in the parking lot of Burger King.

i think what's really compelling about tsh is how out of the main players (and really out of everyone) there isn't one Good Person (in the sense of moral right/good vs wrong/evil story dichotomy type Good Person). Like,,, henry vs bunny alone. I feel like there's an instinct among readers (at least those I've seen on tiktok, which, i know, im sorry) to go Henry is Good and Right and Bunny is Evil and Wrong particularly upon first reading and then when you think critically it turns to Bunny is Actually Good and Right and Henry is Evil and Wrong to make sense of the story but both are Shitty, Terrible People.

Henry is a self-important, elitist serial-killer who is completely detached from the world around him from no one's fault but his own and Bunny is a leech who considers biogtry and a guiness world record catagory and blackmails his friends over a murder not because they killed an innocent man but because they didn't include him.

I think this is what makes tsh so compelling. You're not there to take sides, no matter how hard Richard (unconsciously?) tries. You're there to watch a series of terrible events unfold and to consider the complexity of human morality. Not one person is either Good or Evil. It's impossible and destructive to look at people that way and I think that's how tsh messes with you and I love it. I don't think Donna Tartt wants you to forgive or justify anything that anyone does, but to simply perceive them and your reactions to it

need info

Does anyone know the name of the farmer Henry kills? I'm trying to write something but I don't know if Donna gave him a name

The Greek Class™ when they mess up a note while playing the piano:

Richard: *proceeds to have a mental breakdown and cries for the next 4 hours*

Henry: *deep inhale of frustration* prActice mAkes pErFect

Francis: *nervous laughter* I meant for that to happen.

Charles: *keyboard smashes and then restarts*

Camilla: *calmly starts over from beginning"

Bunny: HENRY THE PIANO IS BROKEN

i stand by the fact that boris pavlikovsky was probably not as cool or as mysterious that theo made him out to be. theo was just raised in upper middle class new york and thinks anyone who doesn’t have a stick up their ass is like, peak coolness. boris in reality is probably some gangly kid who runs his mouth and overshares abt everything.
