1. Price Has A Break Down After Tunnel

in line with the book timeline & events rather than the movie. takes place directly after the Tunnel chapter and he runs to Patrick and has a break down and then businessmen yaoi + probably some Patrick honesty for once.

2. Patrick Has A Second Break Down

movie canon firmly. takes place after the ending and Patrick is still Not Okay. he confides in Price and we get Patrick whump and Price and him bonding. then gay men.

no way of knowing - a timpat playlist

Patrick Bateman and Timothy Price, or a broken mirror still reflects.

[Listen here]

Anyways I made a playlist based on/inspired by his canonical music taste.

Mainly because it'd be funny – he doesn't even know there's hardly anything left to corrupt in Bateman; it's just that his inner beast crawls for Tim instead of baring teeth.

He looks at Patrick and sees his socially inept side, clearly over-performing the idea of a smoother, more cunning man than he actually is. Who's in need of guidance and Tim's oh so great experience when actually he hasn't worked for much longer either. (For funsies I hc Tim to be the younger one by two years or so, but he likes to hide that)

Not that Timothy thinks of Patrick as some blushing maiden. More like Nepo kid that hasn't earned the same cynic attitude yet. (How much stress can a guy with a hairline so full really have?) But there's something to Patrick that Tim finds oddly refreshing – dare he admit endearing even. He looks past some obvious signs of his cruelty, just like many men do with their friends. Beliefs himself to be more morally corrupt, anyways, too caught up in his own feelings of guilt so he projects something a little better on Patrick.
