Maybe I’m getting tired – I can’t think of anything but nights with you. I want them warm and silvery.

If there were a trophy for best kissing scene writing and someone bizarrely decided that I should be the one to bestow it, I would make the Fitzgeralds share it. F. Scott because he managed to write one which my tweenage, repulsed by the very idea of kissing self found romantic and compelling and Zelda because she managed to write one which my still aroace but less oblivious to romance adult self did not realize was a kissing scene until it was over because it's a paragraph of the protagonist imagining spelunking in a guy's brain and there's no real indication of a kiss until he pulls away because he feels a tingling at the head of his spine because she's lost and running in circles in his brain in her head. A win for mystical realism

Zelda Fitzgerald to Scott Fitzgerald [March 1919]

IMAGE ID: there's nothing in all the world I want but you--and your precious love. All the material things are nothing. END IMAGE ID

I know there's the opinion that Scott Fitzgerald plagiarised things from Zelda

However

What do you mean she wrote:

I could never do without you if you hated me and were covered with sores like a leper—if you ran away with another woman and starved me and beat—I still would want you I know-"

And it became one of my favorite quotes from The Beautiful and Damned???

(In other words: I am a wreck)
