Nightmare

[aseparateblog]

queer rep is like "im a boy but,,, >///< i like a boy ???" while queer coding is like "As I had to do whenever I glimpsed this river, I thought of Phineas. Not of the tree and pain, but of one of his favorite tricks, Phineas in exaltation, balancing on one foot on the prow of a canoe like a river god, his raised arms invoking the air to support him, face transfigured, body a complex set of balances and compensations, each muscle aligned in perfection with all the others to maintain this supreme fantasy of achievement, his skin glowing from immersions, his whole body hanging between river and sky as though he had transcended gravity and might by gently pushing upward with his foot glide a little way higher and remain suspended in space, encompassing all the glory of the summer and offering it to the sky."

One of the best things about seeing someone like/reblog your A Separate Peace posts is that you know that that poor soul probably just finished the book and is going through so much suffering at the moment. Buddy, we’ve been there, we’re here for you

but the sexual tension in this book

[aseparateblog]

Anyone who had read “A Separate Peace” by John Knowles please reblog if you think that Gene is gay for Phineas, my English teacher is in denial.

I feel like modern au brinker is really into sitting around drinking wine at house parties and leper is the one off somewhere petting the host's cat. Gene is uncomfortable and leaves early after half attempting conversation with loud rowdy drunk high schoolers. Finny is the host/dj/life of the party/beer pong champ

gene being uncomfortable for .2 seconds until phineas challenges gene to beer pong b/c gene just can’t fuckinjg say no to phineas ohhhh my god but since the game isn’t physical physical gene is slightly better which gets phineas all hyped about it and tries to mix up the rules b/c fuck it ohhhh my goodddd
