>Gatsby doesn't stand-out as a person to Nick at their first meeting
>Nick later describes some of Gatsby's expressions as unique because they have the effect of expressing that he has full-faith in you as opposition to the 'external world' or something like that
>Daisy nervously jokes to Nick that she wonders if he is in love with her
>Nick narrates Gatsby's childhood and time as a YA with Daisy in immense detail and also with Gatsby's emotions at the time. a character could only narrate at this level if it was one of their own memories
>they were both in the army/WWI
>Gatsby's arrival in NY only pre-dates Nick's by like a year or 3 i think
>Gatsby and Nick leave NY around the same time

>yfw Nick and Gatsby are the same person

cousins still fucked in the 20s. also 'cousins' could just be some convenient delusion Nick made to distance himself from Gatsby in his mad scribbles. like a way to justify being in touch with both daisy and gatsby.

also how the hell would he know gatsbys younger years so well. this isnt quoting gatsby, which would be just as ridiculous to remember.
