How the Daisy-coming-to-tea scene should’ve gone

If you are beginning your semester of school this upcoming week or sometime soon; I am wishing that you transition smoothly into your academic environment. I hope that you develop comfortable relationships with your professors and instructors. I pray any financial burdens that have arisen be resolved timely and easily.

Bro. If Edgar Allan Poe wrote The Picture of Dorian Gray 😩. I’m not sure if he’d do it better but…TPoDG is classified as gothic literature and in seeing the gothic sense of that novel versus the gothic sense of Poe’s work, I feel like Poe would put his own twist on it. It’d just be different. The time eras in which both Poe and Wilde wrote were different and definitely influenced their gothic literature as a whole. But as someone who loves Poe just as much as they love Wilde ✋, it would be so cool to see a Poe-ified TPoDG.

I might want to draw something based on all of this 😶

Someone please go back in time and give this idea to Poe he'd do it so much better

Please
