Just finished Brothersong last night. TJ Klune, the man that you are. Gotta be my favorite series of all time I fear! And like god the way I totally didn’t expect that coming in, it’s like hey here’s a silly little book about gay werewolves ! oops, did you think it wasn’t gonna get serious and rip your heart into tiny little shreds? Like my god. I have so much to say. The end was so beautifully done, though. Of course Ox’s ass would try to sacrifice himself one last time, because no matter how many times a character calls another one out for falling into that trope, they STILL DO IT. And god. Thomas’ letter to Ox,,,, hoping one day he’ll call him father,,,, I’m gonna be sick, I’m gonna weep, man.

I could write so much about how big of a theme and throughline fathers (and especially the sins of the father) are in the series, and specifically how important Thomas’ death is to the plot and the characters. Ok I’ll make that a different post !

I’m still not ready to look at all the fanart I’m gonna go feral, #sorrynotsorry but also finally maybe I’ll be able to visualize all the characters better in my head lol, that’s just smth I’ve never been good at without having like a consistent visual reference.

OHHH also my god Gavin changing his name to Gavin Walsh Bennett- AND CALLING ELIZABETH MOM 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I need to be sedated!

And the bonus content from like at least like 10-13 years later when they’ve adopted children and oh my god that was so cute, Ox & Joe’s kid Callie calling Ox out on his constant bringing up of the “my daddy always said…” like pleaseeee I love seeing them get to live in peace and have happiness, and for Elizabeth to live to see peace after so so long and so so much.

I was thinking to myself last night, I think the reason I love this series so much is because it feels like a big warm queer hug- there’s so much queer joy, radical acceptance and love (e.g. the people of Green Greek accepting the Bennetts wholly and entirely as wolves and queers alike lmao) and everyone (for the most part) gets a happy ending- it’s just so full of love.

He shrugged, and the corners of his eyes crinkled. "Followed you around. Shadow. Cockblock."

Literally Carter and Gavin

sometimes it's not even enemies to lovers. sometimes you get handed the leash of a snarling, barking dog against your will and realize with dawning horror that you are now responsible for teaching it not to bite

BROTHERSONG by TJ Klune

She said, "Today, today, today. Today feels green. There's still some blue, but that's life, I think. Sometimes it can be a forest. Other times it's an ocean. But we float, don't we? Along the surface. I always thought so, even when I was drowning. There's a song I like. An old one." And remarkably, she started singing. "Sometimes I float along the river, for to its surface I am bound. And there are times stones done fill my pockets, oh Lord, and it's into this river I drown."

Carter x Gavin fans, vote on this poll and if we win I'll make nsfw carvin art 😏

Joe smells pinecones (and all the rest), Kelly says he smells "home," and Carter smells the old growth forest. The Bennett boys' mates all smell like Green Creek itself.

THE GREEN CREEK SERIES by: TJ Klune

candy canes and pinecones and epic and awesome / dirt and leaves and rain / grass, lake water, sunshine / a forest so alive

may our songs always be heard / packpackpack

Many things change, but the fact that I would die or Gavin is not one of them

[mollyolikeme]

The comedy of Carter continuing to tell Gavin his life story.

‘…and that brings us to senior year.’

He’s like, you will know every detail about me. Just try and stop me.

Give me a meeting and it’s time to draw my hyper fixation keeping me sane. I did buy the first tgcf light novel for this weekend although I listen to many many physical books in a week. I rarely read a paper book so might be tough. Haha but I love wind master and Xe Lian. They have a 10/10 friendship and I think wind master is my fave even if I have trouble remembering their name.

Also this weekend I’ve listened to all of green creek. I tried to draw Carter and Gavin cause I haven’t finished the book yet. Idk why Carter ended up looking like Terushima from haikyuu but it’s my interpretation hahah jk I’m just lazy and using a chibi ref from Pinterest.

Jesse, fighting with Carter, probably: Being gay is not a choice!

Joe, slung over Ox's shoulder: But it is a competition.

Ox: and I won.

*Gavin and Robbie throw confetti*
