BASIL HALLWARD MY BELOVED
i quite enjoy the premise of this, but personally it also feels as thought there are parts that are unnecessarily descriptive, that doesnt add much to the plot, character , or themes. so it can get a little draggy, chapter 11 especially. it also feels like lord henry gets a little repetitive towards the end.
again, the premise is quite interesting, but i walked into this thinking we'd get to see more of dorian's corruption, etc. which is portrayed, but personally i feel it was quite short as compared to the intro bit (and general descriptive bits). actually honestly the ending was a little rushed idk. i do wish we could've seen more of basil
cool premise, terrible characters, slightly weird pacing. but overall kinda fun, i think.
