Hey don’t think about Chester McKee showing Nick his portfolio to get him to stay just a little longer because he was pretty clearly about to flee post-hookup. Don’t think about that because you will start crying alone in your room at seven am on a saturday

[nickwildelvr]

firm believer in the "gatsby doesn't know nick's name and it's too late to ask so he just calls him old sport instead" theory

[nickwildelvr]

the idea for this came to me on the toilet

[nickwildelvr]

this is how piggy felt on the island

[nickwildelvr]

Gatsby would bring Nick to the most random places without explanation and nick would be like what the fuck but stay everytime I just know it

Nick “Ughhh broo Cant stand that hoe he goes against every moral I have” and folds for him everytime Carraway YOU LOVE HIMMM

[nickwildelvr]

there is something deeply wrong with nick carraway in gatsby. motherfucker has been disassocating probably since the end of the war. he watches a marriage almost implode in front of him and in the stunned silence afterwards tells the awful husband, "oh yeah i just remembered today's my birthday"

i dont think casual and high school level discussions focus on how deeply weird nick must be in person and how that affects scenes? i vaguely remember analyses usually focusing on daisy and tom and gatsby but they all use nick as a barely functioning soundboard for horrible behavior and when he doesn't say anything are probably thinking "well nick seems so chill he would stop me if this was Truly Weird" and nick is meanwhile staring off into the distance thinking about what he ate last tuesday and that green eyed bilboard

edit: right and the accident literally happens next page so the weirdness of nick is probably skipped over by most readers

Nick’s Sunday writer’s block

We have a lot of fun here

Redrew some Great gatsby behind-the-scenes pictures cuz I thought they were cute

Also gave up on the background for the last one so I used the first thing that showed up on google LNFAOOOO

This took me FOREVER cuz I kept finding ones I wanted to do

I keep talking about Nick as if I hate him to my hoes because I like emphasizing too much that he’s also a terrible person just with a bunch of way worse people (BUT THATS LITERALLY WHY I LOVE HIM SO MUCH)

WHY AM I HYPERFIXATED ON THE GREAT GATSBY FUCK MY LIFE

Is the Gatsby musical an accurate retelling of the original novel? No.

Does it romanticize the fuck out of Gatsby and Daisy? Yes.

Is the idea of the green light being a metaphor for romantic love entirely missing the point? Yes.

Is it a really, really fun time with gorgeous music, beautiful visuals, and a wildly talented cast? You're goddamn right

[nickwildelvr]

MORE GATSBY STUFF!!!

I like to think Nick started writing the book during the summer— and was fighting demons (gatsby hallucinations)

LET GATSBY HAUNT THE NARRATIVE!!!

Anyway Nick Carraway appreciation can’t get enough of this low key narcissist

Nick Carraway the type of mf to shit talk all his friends and say he hates drama (hmm wait a minute…🤔🤔🤔)

Most of my gatsby stuff is on paper so this is bottom of barrel

[nickwildelvr]

(repost oops 😓)

tuffest lotf quotes 🔥🔥🔥

I'm back and i am finally done with school so now i will be alive on here now... maybe 😊😊

[nickwildelvr]

nick starting one paragraph with "I believe that on the first night I went to Gatsby's house I was one of the few guests who had actually been invited." and then beginning the very next paragraph with "I had actually been invited." ok nick WE GET IT you were fucking invited. we get it, your pretty neighbor invited you to come to his home and you were the only one who he personally wanted there which makes you feel special because you're gay. we fucking get it

New intro cuz the last one is from like 2039193983 years ago!!!!

Hi hi Im Nicky and I use she/her😍!!

I’m a soon to be senior in Highschool, so im a half child half adult (ew old) but mostly child

I REALLLY don’t use tumblr nowadays unless I have art or fandom takes I’m DYING to share somewhere, ORR unless im obsessed with some niche ahh fandom

Speaking fandoms! So glad you asked! Right now I’m very into Arcane and The Great Gatsby (fuckkk I’m a nerd)— and those will obviously fluctuate as time goes on

And I’m not IN the mha fandom but I follow it a bit..

I love to DRAW, watch video essays and listen to MUSIC (I am both an art freak AND and Theatre nerd society fears me)

I like to listen to Chappell Roan a lot, Queen, Elvis and just 50s music in general, and I’ve been getting into Billy Joel..

I’m interested in classic literature ( Favorites rn are Lord of the Flies and Great Gatsby fsfs) and finding littlest pet shop in thrift stores and also pomegranates I miss when they were in season

Anyway byeeee❤️❤️!!!
