Scott be struggling all the time someone help him out
It’s a fact that Scott based Nick heavily on himself- from references to his Scott’s school days being in nicks past, to the few appearances based things we get to just general personality and humor
Nick is meant to be Scott, his queerness is so overt because Scott isn’t socially aware enough to see how truly gay he is- even when Scott was disappearing with men at parties or glueing himself to male friends he was in denial about his queerness
Nicks problematic opinions were Scotts, nicks view of the world was Scott’s
Scott’s blind admiration of the men around him is present in Nick.
Now Scott being so socially inept is why he didn’t add more elements of himself to Nick
Scott didn’t know he was annoying, Scott didn’t know he talked too much and loudly, Scott didn’t know he was chaotic, Scott didn’t consider himself a “messy” person. He could be introspective every now and then but often a lot of the things criticized in Gatsby are things he himself did
It’s and interesting dilemma- Scott’s very opinionated but still does the things he condemns other for
But either way, rant over- also no Nick isn’t intended to be an unreliable narrator, you think the guy who was voted in college to be “thinks he’s the wittiest” would write about his self insert being unreliable- possibly- lowkey Scott’s very confusing bro could literally be doing that
Yes- Scott wrote about himself in the third person…yes- he put himself in the shoes of someone meeting him…yes this is how Scott Fitzgerald described himself
You ever cringe so hard a hole appears in your stomach
Criminally underrated Scott photo
Don’t like the sharp gaze though. Blink…..At least his eyes are green and not like- Paul Newman blue I guess
I think it’s kinda funny IRL Scott looks more like a typical anime girl than actual anime Scott in bsd
"Sempre que tiver vontade de criticar alguém - ele disse -, lembre-se de que ninguém teve as oportunidades que você teve."
F. Scott Fitzgerald, O Grande Gatsby
“When they met again, two days later, it was Gatsby who was breathless, who was, somehow, betrayed. Her porch was bright with the bought luxury of star-shine; the wicker of the settee squeaked fashionably as she turned toward him and he kissed her curious and lovely mouth. She had caught a cold, and it made her voice huskier and more charming than ever, and Gatsby was overwhelmingly aware of the youth and mystery that wealth imprisons and preserves, of the freshness of many clothes, and of Daisy, gleaming like silver, safe and proud above the hot struggles of the poor.” ❀
