#ox and joe

[rhllorthered]

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.

So, i started listening to wolfsong 🫡

(Idc if Joe had his head shaved and a full beard when he got back. I'm ignoring that)

Anyways, live laugh love Ox. Now listening to ravensong 🫶

This was a difficult chapter for me to read, it hurt.

“Could I have a job?” I said in a rush. “It’s just we need the money and I can’t let her lose the house. It’s all we have left. I’d do good, Gordo. I would do good work and I’d work for you forever. It was going to happen anyway and can we just do it now? Can we just do it now? I’m sorry. I just need to do it now because I have to be the man now.” My throat hurt. I wished I had something to drink, but I couldn’t get my legs to move.

Gordo didn’t say anything at first. Then, “I think that might be the most I’ve ever heard you talk at one time.”

I finished Wolfsong today, and have put an order out on the rest of the GreenCreek series. Annoyed that I can’t start on Gordo’s story yet- but also pleased I get to draw out the feelings I’ve had over the first book itself. I laughed, I shed some tears and ultimately had a wonderful time reading Ox and Joe’s story. I love Ox Matheson with my whole heart and he truly doesn’t need to be more, he’s perfectly imperfect the way he is. Thanks TJ Klune for giving me angst and also addicting me to a new series. 🩷

And in the middle of this clearing sat a man who had once been a boy. A boy who I had loved....

The monster was gone now. And so was the boy. Because a man had taken his place.

Ugh I love Ox and Joe soooo much

[mollyolikeme]

I DID IT. I SURVIVED GREEN CREEK.

My struggle has essentially been EXACTLY like the characters in this series, just as difficult, just as treacherous, just as HEARTBREAKING.

this is the truth.

OMG please write something for Green Creek! Im obsessed and there aren’t enough fic’s on AO3 to keep me satisfied. I would love something from Joe’s POV during wolfsong

okayy this isnt the whole thing but a sneak peek 👀 it's abt 50% of what ive written so far

decided to use proper capitalisation for this too ☠️ who wouldve thought !

Joe knew he hadn't spoken in a long time, though not for lack of trying. He spoke a lot in his dreams, even if it was closer to jumbled screaming. But when he was back in the real world, it was like the words were stuck in his throat, all the way down in the dark pit of his stomach, which roiled unpleasantly every time he smelled the bluesadsonblue from everyone everywhere.

But then. Then Ox, Ox, Ox had come and there was no blue, there was no blue in sight. The dirt road was brown and the leaves were green and Ox's shirt was red, and Ox said it smelled like trees, but more importantly, it had smelled like candy canes and pinecones and epic and awesome, and Joe wanted to go rawr and grr, especially to scare away whatever made Ox sad. He didn't want any blue to touch Ox ever again.

Momento de lectura

La verdad no sabía, si debía comenzar esta lectura el libro se veía muy pesado...muchas páginas 😑😫 lo cual me aterraba, nunca leí un libro más de 500 pag.

Decidí comenzar a leer solo por una lectura conjunta y ME ARREPIENTO de no leerlo antees🫠, ahí como llore, sufrí y me encanto 💘

No lo voy a negar 🤫🫣 , al principio me resultó confusa y molesta la narración, hasta mas adelante una vez comenze no pude abandonar, hasta me fui de vacaciones con el libro 🏖 y me quede sin banderitas (señaladores de libro), ahí muchos momentos que quiero señalar todavía.

Si, bien ahí algunas cosas que me chocan del libro por ejemplo la edad y falta de comunicación, no lo cambio por nada 💜 fue una buena experiencia, todavía me queda unos tres libros más por leer 🫡 la manada tiene mucho por contar.

it's taking me so long to read brothersong

probably gonna be one of my favorites, because when i actually sit/lay down to read it, i can't stop it and, when i see it i've already read +20%

it's been such a good journey with my packpackpack and it feels SO painful to let them go, to finish their stories... i feel like i'll have the need to reread all of it as soon as i finish this book

i've never ever felt so connected to characters, istg, what this book series does to me is... UNEXPLAINABLE.

i cry every single time they do, feel despair every time they do, laugh with them and at them. they've become my family, i'd read a full book of them being HAPPY for 500 pages!

ugh, i don't wanna finish this book series aaaaaaaaaah and i'm crying one again

[rhllorthered]

Me, during Wolfsong: haha "pick-me" robbie, gtfo

Me, during Ravensong: lolol stupid hipster glasses 🙄🙄

Me, immediately during Heartsong: IM SO SORRY, YOU PRECIOUS BOY. DONT EVER LEAVE. 😭😭

[rhllorthered]

The Bennetts keeping Ox from his urge for self-sacrifice.

[howlushome]

So he pressed his forehead against mine and breathed me in and there was that sun, okay? That sun between us, that bond that burned and burned and burned because he’d given it to me. Because he’d chosen me. And I got to choose him back.

[mollyolikeme]

Just thought about the reunion after 3 years 1 month 26 days and i instantly welled up……

[mollyolikeme]

I WEEP!

"Why do you smell like that?" he demanded. "Where did you come from? Do you live in the woods? What are you? We just got here. Finally. Where is your House?" He put his forehead against mine and inhaled deeply. "I don't get it!" he exclaimed. "What is it?"
