Dorian Gray and Basil Hallward
Recently been reading The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and I had to make this.
SPOILERS - Basil did not only get rejected by the love of his life after confessing his love, he got FRIENDZONED.
'... You and I are friends, Basil, and we must always remain so.' - Dorian Gray
#basil really did love dorian#all the way till the end#and boy#the level of GAY in this book#is WOW#extra spoiler#things are about to get much worse for both dorian and basil#for anyone who doesn't know#the picture of dorian gray#is about a beautiful young man called dorian gray who trades his soul for eternal youth#he remains young and beautiful forever#but a portrait of him (painted by basil hallward) gets uglier and older every time he commits a sin#his sinful behaviour is influenced by a horror called lord henry wotton#the relationship between these three is VERY homoerotic btw#if you haven't read it you ought to#have a good day/night!#tpodg
