middle child culture is once you’re comfortably friends with someone just being as obnoxiously in their space as you physically can be like if you don’t write ronan using blue as an armrest and blue who is little sister adjacent bcus of orla getting FURIOUS about it i can’t relate. also i feel like the fact that gansey is a younger brother goes SEVERELY underutilized in canon…less dad gansey more ronan sitting on top of gansey until he gives up the last pop tart because they’re going to be late to school if he doesn’t please

[shikanji]

Please

[squidwithelbows]

I think a lot about the early days of Adam and Gansey’s friendship… There are so many ways this exchange could go, please send me more captions.

blue and adam start talking politics one day when theyve all met up at home and adam is like ‘god its such a relief to talk to someone who cares about this ronan asked me if the electoral college was one of the schools i was applying to for my masters the other day’ and blue is just like ‘okay but have you ever had to sit through a lecture about how john mccain actually wasnt that bad bcus gansey met him once and he offered him a mint? count your blessings’

[babyspicearchive-deactivated202]

the gag is of course that adam has sat through that exact lecture literally more times than he can count and the whole time his brain is just going GUILLOTINE GUILLOTINE GUILLOTINE over and over again

I feel like the most underrated scene of the raven boys is when Ronan comes up to Gansey and asks if he wants to go street racing and gansey says no, then it’s quiet for a second till ronan asks if he wants to go to the gas station to buy orange juice and gansey looks at the clock and its like 3 am and says yes and then the chapter ends.

The thrift stores of Henrietta must be flipping phenomenal. Here you’ve got a middle-of-nowhere Virginian town with a private academy full of America’s wealthiest most darlingest baby boys. Hadid and Kardashian level wealth. So guess what town has a monopoly for looking Boujie on a Budget?? Boys like Richard Campbell Gansey III are out there stress-shopping for $6,000 computer systems, leather sofas, fluorescent Brooks Brothers polos, and Foosball tables. The Henry Chengs are stocking up on ironic tees that you just know are Off-White, Gucci, Prada or whatever over-priced designer label you can name. The Ronan Lynchs are buying $800 Supreme sharpies just to piss off their older brothers. Think they’re packing everything up to take home for the summer? No way.

Blue Sargent is out here snatching deals, wearing designer and cutting it up not only for the aesthetic, but as a middle-finger to capitalism as a whole. Adam Parrish refuses to buy any of his class-mates second hand stuff because he’s too proud, and more importantly, 6 months ago he saw Tad Carathuthers wearing the wool overcoat he just found in the Goodwill and has been lusting over ever since, but he’ll be damned if he even gives Caruthers a chance to breathe so much as a “hey is that my-“. The Youtubers of Henrietta are living their absolutely best life hauling all these slick outfits as if they were Kylie Jenner, but they refuse to give away the secret.

Now all I can picture is Ronan gleefully dropping off a bag of Gansey’s Terrible Shirts at the Goodwill. Except then, a week later, Blue shows up wearing one as a deconstructed dress and Gansey is like–wait, I have a shirt that looks sort of like that. And Noah is like, lol, not anymore you don’t.

still dying at the fact that on my first read of tdt i assumed declan being mad at ronan for sleeping on adam in the car was homophobia when really it was just that the sight of ronan asleep sends declan into panic mode

[babyspicearchive-deactivated202]

matthew lynch’s secret power is that if at any point in either of his relationships with his brothers something is not going his way all he has to do is say ‘you sound just like [insert other brother’s name]’ and things turn around REAL quick like one time ronan tries out a ‘we have food at home’ when they pass a drive thru mcdonalds and matthew comes back with an ‘ugh thats what declan told me last week’ and ronan almost causes a 17 car pileup with the u turn he pulls

[unganseylike]

bold to assume Matthew has the capability purposefully manipulate his brothers

[hogwartsaheadcanon]

honestly there just is not enough deeply catholic pynch content around the fact that Ronan—repeatedly called ‘Snake’ and equated with the Devil—is literally in love with a guy called Adam.

like these books were not written with Adam called Adam, with both him and Henrietta (the place he so desperately wants to escape) so often described in terms of ‘dust’, for us all to be sleeping on the fact that biblically Adam, after being indirectly corrupted by the serpent (devil), is thrown from Eden and basically told Adam Parrish’s worst nightmare: ‘By the sweat of your face you will earn your food, until you return to the ground, as you were taken from it. For dust you are and to dust you shall return.’ For dust you are and to dust you shall return. Spoken to Adam in punishment that comes as a result of the serpent’s corruption. like obviously it has to end happily because these boys deserve a break but how can we, as a fandom, be neglecting the nineteen levels of scripture-based catholic guilt Ronan must have gone through falling for Adam Parrish in particular? How can we??? its all right there! it’s free angst real estate!

the fact that blue cant kiss still is heartbreaking mostly bcus that means there’ll probably never be a time where they’ll be over it enough that when he wants to annoy gansey ronan can be like ‘hey blue remind me what your worst nightmare in the nightmare tree was. you know the worst possible thing your brain could imagine’ and blue can be like ‘OH! it was kissing gansey’ and then they high five while gansey googles how to find new friends in college URGENT
