GUEQOGS FUCKING GAY FOR ISHMAIL

>HI I'm Moby Dick

Really Melville really?

Didn't they literally sleep together? It's been 5 years since I read the book but I remember them being in bed.

>>8667740
They had to sleep together because there weren't enough rooms in the inn for the night

>>8667740
Yeah but they didn't fuck. Have you never shared a bed with a friend?
I share a bed with my friends when we go on snowboarding trips all the time. It's not gay. It was the only bed he could afford.

>>8667747
I clearly remember them cuddling, or at least getting extremely close, too.

>>8667758
I didn't say it was, I was just answering the anon who asked the question

>>8667779
Ishmael woke up to Queequeg's arm over him

>>8667784
Well that's pretty fucking gay, anon.

It used to be that men could be affectionate with other men, without it being gay.

Call me cis male.

>>8667999
underated

gettin' comfy under the counterpane

>>8667813
Ehhh, Ishmael explicitly says they were sitting there as comfortable and happy as husband and wife among a myriad of other gay shit.
That being said I don't think they were gay, I think it was intended as comic relief, but I'm going as Ishmael to a halloween party and you bet your ass I'm drawing on a tattoo with "Queequeg" in a heart.

>>8667999
heh

>>8668682
But that's not even funny, that's literally just gay. The first time I read it at 15, I assumed they had sex.

Post your halloween costume

I drew this on my arm then added some generic sailing tattoos. The outfit's really basic, just a button-up shirt, chinos, a flat cap, and suspenders.
Ishmael described himself so vaguely that the only real distinguishing thing is this.

>>8668705
Wow you actually did it. I like you anon.

I'm gonna need to see the rest though.

Thanks anon. I put them on last night and went to a friend's party, I'm sitting in a lecture going over them. This is the other side of that arm, generic sailor stuff.

And then the other arm has a harpoon. I ended the rope in a noose for muh symbolism.
I have a giant compass rose on my chest too but I'm in public so I can't redraw it or take a pic right now.

>>8667536
>Queequeg

>>8669908

>[Queequeg] still hugged me tightly…I now strove to rouse him…I then rolled over, my neck feeling as if it were in a horse-collar; and suddenly felt a slight scratch….[T]hought I; abed here in a strange house in the broad day, with a cannibal….At length, by dint of much wriggling, and loud and incessant expostulations upon the unbecomingness of his hugging a fellow male in that matrimonial sort of style, I succeeded in extracting a grunt….[H]e drew back his arm….[He was] stiff as a pike-staff….Meanwhile, I lay quietly eyeing him, having no serious misgivings now, and bent upon narrowly observing so curious a creature. When, at last, his mind seemed made up touching the character of his bedfellow, and he became, as it were, reconciled to the fact;
