A Seperate Peace Ch.7

"His glance flickered out at me from his defeat, and I saw to my surprise that I had, by making a little fun of him, brought upon myself his unmixed hatred. For my escape this was a price I was willing to pay" (91).

Gene is an idiot. He is willing to do anything to get people to like him even to the point of hurting others. Does Gene honestly think he is going to get somewhere by doing this? Brinker is coming into Devon acting like he owns the place and clearly egging Gene on. Gene is actually falling for his nonsense. Gene is not a leader. He is an unwise follower. I thought Gene would have changed by now, but clearly he is just making the situation worse. When Phineas comes back to Devon, Phineas will be in for a surprise. I wish Finny wasn't so kind. His kindness and loyalty is very genuine, but now it is beginning to piss me off. Phineas needs to realize Gene is consistently stabbing him in the back. It's not fair to Phineas! Gene has no right to be acting like this. Does he not understand the fact that he almost killed Phineas! Clearly it doesn't matter to him. That's why he's acting like a total imbecile lying about what he did to Phineas. He shouldn't be proud of that! Brinker has no right to even start rumors at Devon and Gene is an asshole. Phineas needs to get a reality check and find some real friends. It's really sad to see what's going on at Devon.

Will Gene ever change for better?
