Summary
Gustave Virlogeux has been in love with his best friend for nine years.
Why hasn't he confessed, you ask? Well, there is the tiny, insignificant problem that said best friend is straight.Or at least he thinks he is straight. Because for about a year now, there's been a little voice in the back of Verso Dessendre's head asking some very pointed questions about a certain engineering student, who also happens to be his best friend.
And what better place to figure this mess out than four days at a music festival: with their entire friend group, one (1) very small tent, and a spreadsheet containing thirty-six (36) of Gustave's failed confession attempts?
Or: five times Verso thinks he might be bi, five times Gustave almost confesses, and the one time, finally, nobody interrupts.

Bookmark Notes:
"Nine years, thirty-six catalogued failures, one spreadsheet, one transparent shirt, one act of God — and the man does it himself, unprompted, quietly, staring out the windshield in his stupid techno sunglasses with his hands folded in his lap like he's in confession, which, Gustave supposes, he is."
14/10, read it on the way to work and at work, made me smile like an idiot in public transport even though Verso's backstory with Julie broke my heart
I love them when they are stupid oh my god
