but [gatsby's] heart was in a constant, turbulent riot. the most grotesque and fantastic conceits haunted him in his bed at night. a universe of ineffable gaudiness spun itself out in his brain while the clock ticked on the washstand and the moon soaked with wet light his tangled clothes upon the floor. each night he added to the pattern of his fancies until drowsiness closed down upon some vivid scene with an oblivious embrace.

c. figuratively describing gatsby's heart as being in a riot explain the intensity with which he later pursues daisy and other ambitions.
d. calling gatsby's fantasies an ever-growing "pattern" suggests that he is a creative genius and a master schemer.
