A question recently posed by Miss Georgiana Darcy has got me thinking-- Did Dorian, did my Prince Charming, ever love me at all? If therre is no such thing as love by sight alone, then what would one call such a telescopic love? He loved, or so it seems, the tragedies I played each night; he loved those girls, whose lives I wore, and never once

Especially if he's got it in his head to be adored.

*with a forced lightness* And if anyone has, it's Dorian Gray...

Always. And of course it's awfully difficult for anyone to agree. *the bitterness here could easily be on behalf of a friend, a sister, a cousin ruined-- but it isn't, and perhaps it shows*

*low, her eyes downcast* I - would have said - 'twas difficult to disagree - that Dorian Gray is - to be adored, whether - whether or not - ... despite all --

One would doubt that Gray believes in love, Miss Vane. *who, Alan, bitter? Of course not.*

*frowns* I believe that he loves himself, Mr. Campbell.

Oh, indeed. He tends to make that rather obvious, does he not?
