I mean the book is for sure frooty y’all can’t tell me Henry and Basil don’t have MAJOR crushes on Dorian like- 

Dorian why do you have to be such a self-absorbed bastard? Your little murder freak out was wild…my man Basil Hallward didn’t deserve that. Henry really ruined you huh…you had potential to be normal 💔 But then again the commentary on how being too self-absorbed in looks and materialism is extremely self-destructive and can be seen as a form of self-sabotage is lovely. Oh and poor gurl Sibyl, it was for sure your fault Dorian…feel bad.
