Adam to Ronan in TRB

[theravenkin]

random thought while rereading trk part 2:

adam giving opal his watch SOMEONE SEDATE ME especially connecting it to the dreamer triology?

“she just wanted to be best friends with gansey and maybe one day have carnal knowledge of him. that seemed like a sensible desire” i love you blue sargent

wait how did i forget that piper is laumoniers daughter????

niche reference but gansey sneaking into aglionby to swim is so like the tick tick boom scene where he goes swimming… i mean tick tick boom is such a gansey coded movie ngl

wait this book only takes place over a week??

adam’s beef with henry is actually so funny to me: “you’ve seen him. i don’t have time for that” and blue describing a look adam gives her as as even worse than the one he gives henry

adam being mad at blue and saying “sure, ronan” like he is just always on ur mind huh

k i love the arguments in these books because you genuinely can can empathize and agree with both sides. that being said the adam and blue fight makes me so sad because they both care so much. justice for blue and adam friendship

henry calling gansey the president, adam congress and ronan the supreme court is lowkey genius it sums up their friendships well

k we ofc know the fortuitous combination line but the fact that it’s just?? so casual?? at the start of the chapter?

bluesey solos with the toga scene im sorry. ganseys dimples? “i like you an awful lot blue sargent”? the first time he’s felt present in his life???

byeee the way that they call out “orphan girl” to get her attention lowkey rude like yall don’t need to let her know you call her that

ooo okay noah being able to pull energy from gansey as well in the fox way scene is interesting i never realized that - hinting he is also a mirror?

gansey is so valid because if i was alone and bloody in the hospital after my girlfriend almost got her eye torn out and my friend said “hey shitlord” to me i would also crash out!! especially with adam basically being like “eh blues probably fine since gansey’s bitching” and then them both being shocked about how bad her injury really was like serves you right assholes (lovingly)

The Raven Cycle - Maggie Stiefvater ✨🌼

[theravenkin]

pulled a adam parrish on ronan lynch today by jokingly asking the cardiac surgeon that i know has a ?thing-for-me "hey, you're a surgeon, what shall i do with this cut on my finger?" and JOKES ON ME because she actually stopped from going to consent a patient to get her phone out, grabbed my entire hand and started examining the cut. no, i did not blush! don't listen to what anyone saw, they are liars

[theravenkin]

i will forever believe that gansey and blue can kiss after. idgaf. because what was the point? they did all of that to save gansey and he could still die just by kissing his girlfriend?

with the symbolism of the camaro always being close to breaking down representing gansey’s fragility, and ronan giving them the dream camaro that will keep running seems to show that gansey is safe and will live? it’s clear gansey was always in limbo and in danger after his first death, so that moment and ending feels like he’s moving on and growing up.

especially since it’s shown gansey is almost obsessive with his own death. re-enacting his death, not killing the wasp, dating a girl that could kill him - it doesn’t make sense symbolically that he could still die so easily.

and don’t even get me started on blue, who would literally have to live with the knowledge that she killed gansey, and can still kill him again.

i understand the more tragic elements of the story and why they’re there (noah being forgotten the gangsey going their desperate ways) but like…. it seems pretty clear that gansey does not see a life worth living where he doesn’t get to kiss blue sargent. it just doesn’t make sense to me character and story wise that they have to continue living under the curse and can never truly be free, especially since that’s the end of their story.

Andrew Minyard is literally SO transfag coded. But ppl don't understand bcuz they aren't transfags, they don't embrace transfaggotry in their life . so they wouldn't Get It . He is a butch . He is butch4femme . He eats boypussy. He loves tdick and man tits. He wears strap. He's a bear . He is a t4t gay man. But only to those who are enlightened enough to understand the vision.

“elation overtook ronan. even before he put a name to the face, he was overwhelmed with a single thought: it was going to be okay.

the second voice belonged to adam parrish.”

—

because let’s be so honest, has anyone else ever taken care of ronan the way adam has? not really. not his own father. not declan. not even gansey. certainly not kavinsky. not bryde. not hennessy.

declan tried and failed because he tried too hard to protect ronan from himself. tried to keep as much of a lid on ronan’s magic as possible, always told him to lay low, go to school, be good. but ronan never, ever wanted that. he’s incompatible with that kind of existence.

gansey never tried to stifle ronan the same way, but he was more focused on keeping ronan alive than he was on helping ronan figure out and channel his power. i don’t blame gansey for this at all, he did watch ronan almost die numerous times as a result of his dreaming. yeah, the dreaming was helpful on the quest for glendower, but that was as far as gansey was interested in pushing it.

adam, however. adam. adam parrish pulled his boots on and literally went into ronan’s head with him to fight his monsters. he sacrificed his autonomy, the most sacred thing in the world to him, to work as an agent for ronan’s dreamt forest. i know we don’t need to revisit the driving-and-scrying scene again. forgetting all of that, when everyone cautioned ronan to steer clear of greenmantle, told him revenge wasn’t worth the danger, adam was the only one to step up and say, hey, want me to help you stick it to this asshole? i will gladly devise some heinous crime story for us to stick on him and i will gladly help you plant the evidence.

that’s the difference.

“you’re always the car crash, ronan.”

yet adam still let him drive, because ronan was one of the only people to ever extend that same courtesy to him. blue obviously had a lot of respect for adam’s independence as well, as the only other person in the friend group that didn’t come from money. but then again, blue had a family that loved her. she could lean on people and know they wouldn’t pull the rug out from under her. ronan’s rug was pulled from him when niall died. adam never had a rug. ronan’s so goddamn traumatized by his own loss, trying desperately to fill a void. declan and gansey, the closest things he has to a father and brother at this point, constantly look at him like he might combust at any moment. of course he can understand why adam doesn’t want to lean on anyone. it isn’t going well for ronan himself.

so he never got on adam about being stubborn about money, always respected his independence. i think ronan probably even envied it a little, deep down. because what mattered to adam was never money: it was always independence, and ronan saw that. and whenever it was threatened, that was when he stepped in. he beat the shit out of adam’s father when he tried to beat adam back down into fear and submission. he paid adam’s rent when the only home he’d ever had truly for himself was threatened, and he was careful to hide his hand in it, because he knew how important it was to adam that no one pulled strings for him.

across all friendships and relationships that adam and ronan have had, they are the only ones that have consistently fought for each other’s right to self-determination. that’s the difference.

so as ronan’s cut off from his own body, bleeding nightwash by the gallon, barely able to remember who he is, of course it’s adam’s voice that fills him with joy. whatever he needs, adam will make sure he gets it. he always has. that’s the difference.
