putting me in the spot uh uh uh i like to think that he used to make don explain stuff in books to him because while he does enjoy reading he can struggle at times processing deeper themes and motifs or parsing hidden or obscured meanings. i think he sometimes re-reads 'The Great Gatsby' specifically because he has fond memories of reading/studying it WITH don, one of those rare times in their older teens where they werent bickering or berating each other. in a sense i think he may had come to associated f.scott fitzgerald's work as a whole with don as a result. which is funny as sin since hank is a self proclaimed lover of hemmingway who may as well have been fucking fitzgerald in the streets for how damn inseperable THOSE two seemed to be. adding beautiful layers to my brotherbrother incest ship like a master artisan layering watercolors
