I wrote these notes on my reread of the raven boys lol. idk I think I’m funny.
Ugh I’ve been meaning to reread this for ages I’m so excited. I love them alllllllll. And i need to reacquaint myself with their characterisations so i can write my fanfic. :D
(Pg 112) SRF 😭 bc he lowk issssss. And the fact that ronan took that and ran with it. Fu tho Robert 😒
«you know what they say about men with large bags. Ostendes tuum et ostendam meus?» 😭😭😭😭😭 THIS is why i love Latin.
I am also jealous Blue. I too would like a bond strong enough to transcend words.
«’I don’t have a brother, ma’am.’ But Blue saw his eyes dart to Gansey.» !!!!!!!!! Dyk my body can’t actually take this excitement.
Obsessed with the idea of Ronan’s facial hair. Hrm.
Adam’s southern accent 😫
«R: I’m always straight
A: Oh, man, that’s the biggest lie you’ve ever told.» 🤭🤭🤭
Wow I didn’t realise how much of a cunt Gansey could be.
«’Out of the blue?’ Calla asked.
‘I’d prefer if you didn’t use that expression,’ Blue said. » This book is hilarious.
I’d seriously forgotten the timeline. Adam has already lost his hearing?
« i’m sorry your father never taught you the meaning of repugnant. He was too busy smashing your head against the wall of your trailer while you apologised for being alive.» 💔
Ronan studying because Adam sacrificed so much just to keep him from getting charged with assault
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 such a fast read. Like, the words just slid past my eyes.
how are we feeling about pynch in their 30s
The character foils between Adam Parrish and Kavinsky. Both from abusive households. Both with a history of aggression, one internalized and the other externalized. Both with the impulse for destruction, to which one embraces, (Kavinsky) and the other suppresses (Adam). How both of them are love interests to Ronan. Kavinsky the serpent, Adam the first man. Evil incarnate, and evil inherited. Dear GOD.
previously : lesson 1 — “kavinsky was a literal rapist”
hello class ! today, we become detectives (how exciting) and attempt to solve the dick pic mystery through an attentive study of chapter 40 of the dream thieves. i might as well break it to you now : there will be no definitive answers, even on the other side of nonsense mountain, to our two very pressing questions, which are (1) whose dick was it ? and (2) who took the damn picture ? we will probably have a hard time, as well, determining why on earth there are people who are so sure that the infamous dick pic was taken by kavinsky while ronan was unconscious (e.g. : here, here, here, and here) — it very probably involves a lot of bad faith and blurry memories of the actual book. fortunately, there are other people who share some doubts re : this hypothesis. there is still hope.
without further stalling, let’s get reading.
to follow the lesson easily, and because i wasn’t going to quote the whole chapter, here’s what you should open in tabs : 1 & 2 (i couldn’t make it both readable and fit in a single image, sorry.)
PART 1 : WHOSE DICK WAS IT ?
well, who knows. gansey assumes it’s ronan’s because the picture is coming from ronan’s phone and perhaps because of the irish flag tied around it, but i mean “it was a close-up of a part of ronan’s anatomy he hadn’t seen before” so he doesn’t know any better than we do. it might as well have been kavinsky’s.
PART 2 : WHO TOOK THAT PIC AND UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES ?
wouldn’t we all like to know. there is a variety of options, some likelier than others, but the first and main thing i’d like to do is : show how little textual evidence there is to support the theory that it was kavinsky who took a picture of ronan’s dick without his consent / while he was unconscious.
at the very beginning of chapter 40, we learn that, in the middle of a tea party, gansey received three texts from ronan / ronan’s phone. the first one was the dick pic, and the two others were undoubtedly from ronan :
before you hear it from anyone else, i wrecked the pig
but don’t worry man i got it under control say hi to your mom from me
but why so undoubtedly ? well, would kavinsky know to call gansey’s car “the pig” ? do these texts sound kavinsky ? has kavinsky ever used a comma in a text in his life ? how would these texts make sense if they were from kavinsky ? because their content would imply that kavinsky would have wanted to appease gansey, to try and protect gansey and ronan’s relationship from the consequences of ronan’s mistake, somehow, and that’s nowhere near the realm of possibility.
chapter 40 also tells us that there could have been no more than a few minutes between the dick pic and those two other texts. so are we supposed to believe that ronan was unconscious while kavinsky tied a flag around his dick, took a picture of it and sent it to gansey, then came back to his senses to write those texts, and then fell asleep again ? well i guess you could choose to believe that, if you were hellbent on making canon fit your headcanon.
here is a timeline of sorts :
t1 : a dick pic is sent
t1 + a few minutes, maybe / t2 : two texts are sent
t2 + 5 minutes, probably less than 10 minutes : gansey calls ronan, but it’s kavinsky who picks up
so : three texts were sent within minutes, and ronan sent the last two. in all likeliness, he was awake when the first one was sent as well.
then, we can only speculate : was the picture taken by either ronan or kavinsky while they were intoxicated and/or high, because they thought it such fun, and then later on kavinsky snatched ronan’s phone and sent it to gansey ? is it ronan who sent the picture ? whose dick was it god damn it ? was the text sent right after the picture was taken, because any minute of thinking would have led to it not being sent at all ? why did no one ever mention this again ? if ronan was awake when the dick pic was sent, even if he didn’t send it and it was sent without his consent, how could he possibly not have known that it was sent, given the short time that elapsed between the dick pick and the texts ? did he hope to distract gansey’s attention from it by sending those texts ?
i see someone, stirring in the dark, getting ready to ask me : BUT what if kavinsky took the picture while ronan was indeed unconscious, and then sent it later, while ronan was awake ? well, (1) why on earth would he have done that (2) patience never seemed to be kavinsky’s thing (3) but yeah whatever if you want to believe that i can’t stop you.
BUT … kavinsky touched ronan’s back while he thought ronan was asleep, so it’s so very likely that he touched ronan’s dick while he was unconscious ? — wow, i just love the way you think, by all means, keep it up.
BUT … what if all the texts were from kavinsky, since it can be no more than 10 minutes after the texts when gansey calls ronan’s phone and it’s kavinsky who picks up and ronan isn’t awake enough to talk to gansey after kavinsky yells at him to wake up fuckweasel it’s your girlfriend ? — well it doesn’t seem impossible at all that, after sending the texts about having wrecked the pig, ronan would have passed out. and i’ve already pointed out how very improbable it is that kavinsky sent those texts.
so there. there is absolutely nothing in the text to make the “kavinsky took the picture while ronan was unconscious” option more plausible than others. i’d go as far as to say that it is amongst the less likely of options.
ha, class, we’ve accomplished so much ! in only two lessons, we’ve managed to show that not only isn’t there any hard evidence in favor of kavinsky being a rapist, we’ve also demonstrated how it is just as false to say that he sexually assaulted ronan in any way ! (unless you count back-touching as sexual assault. please, come and try to convince me of that, i’d be delighted.) i am more than certain that people will continue to say that kavinsky was guilty of sexual assault, but i cherish the hope that if such a person should manifest themselves, they could be linked to my posts to see the error of their ways. class, i am a dreamer.
in our next lesson, we’ll see if people can be justified in saying that “kavinsky deserved better” through a distinction between (1) the way he was treated by other characters throughout the book and (2) his ultimate inevitable demise. see you then.
Except:
“What were you doing with my phone?” “Calling your mother.”
This is said after Ronan wakes up, and clearly remembers nothing that happened between last night and now:
He vaguely recalled, with less acuity than a dream, watching an endless video of Saudi Arabian street racing on the big pull-down screen last night.“
"What was he doing? he had no idea what he was doing. He couldn’t focus on anything except one hundred white Mitsubishis in a field.”
Which does not of course mean that it is 100% Ronan’s penis, I agree that can’t be said with complete certainty. But it does make it very unlikely Ronan in any way participated in any of the above. Kavinsky acted on his own.
Hm.
adam: yeah, i, uh… i work at a car mechanic. i fix cars for a living.
fuck fuck why did i say that STUPID idiot why did i say that OH MY GOD WHY DID I SAY THAT
gansey: can i tell you about my special interest

Idk about u but I love outside pov fics. How or when do u think people at aglionby or around town found out about Adam and ronan? I don’t think they’d be open but I also don’t think they’d be not not open, u know? Like it’s the south, but I see them not wanting to hide. We know at least by the epilogue that Adam’s parents have found out somehow, which id also kill to know when that happened
Long story short, there aren’t enough outside POV fics
Ok, I've been thinking about this ask for DAYS because I am in full, full agreement on your read of that dynamic but I struggle to put this into words? I find that in-between of Pynch in TRK versus the TRK Epilogue versus Opal so intriguing because there's been such offpage development at that point. It's why I write so much of them in those early stages - I have this ache to fill in the blanks.
To be honest, I don't see Adam and Ronan changing too much of their dynamic early on. I think, especially with the rumour mill as we've heard it at Aglionby (Gansey and Ronan being an item; Adam being gay), and their nonchalance in regards to it, (like... none of them seemed to care all too much?) I don't think they'd care for hiding anything? Hiding a relationship feels relatively against Ronan's principles, and Adam at that point in the story either doesn't give a fuck what anyone thinks or has trained himself to pretend to not give a fuck. (For all I am a sucker for a good secret relationship trope. Oh, that thrills my soul. I have such a weak spot for it.)
I also think with Ronan, who is terrified of change, and with Adam, who literally does not have the time, they'd just slot coupley behaviors into what they already did? In canon, they already hung out (even pre series) and at the point in their relationship we left them at, it's still so new and transitional. (And Ronan is actively grieving). I don't think their behavior would ping anything, especially at Aglionby. Ronan was barely showing up to school at that point, had promised himself to drop out.
To be honest, they'd just do... what Adam and Ronan do? They're a separate enough unit at this point, and small towns talk. So one person sees them kiss off school grounds and it spreads around and I can see them just... not giving a shit. I think at the most they'd laugh anything off. (Like, considering how Adam and Ronan treat Henry, anything against their values/character is worthy of intense scorn in their eyes.) I do think Ronan is the type to go, "fuck you I'll kiss my boyfriend if I want" and lay one on Adam whenever the hell he wants. Neither of them are the type to occupy any sort of shame towards the other's position in their lives - they literally faced death and spiritual possession. I think homophobic ribbing is the least of their problems.
(Settle further that Adam doesn't blink when his dad makes a crack at his "boyfriend's beemer" and I think it just solidifies Adam doesn't give a shit. He doesn't value the opinion of those he deems unworthy of it.)
So, synopsis: it just spreads because they don't give a fuck. Like, they kiss in public because it doesn't matter. They had other shit going on. Small town rumour mill gets to them, everyone finds out. They continue not to care. Adam especially grows comfortable enough in his sexuality and in Ronan to make queer friends in college. They're assholes who sneer at anyone outside their circle.
(Ughhhh I love the "Pynch from the outside" fic series, and would love to work with that. I think we should make Tad Carruthers suffer a bit more. I actually have a tremendous love for seeing how other character's interpret their relationship - like seeing how Declan or Hennessy or Opal see them is so near and dear to me ahhh.)
anyway backpacking off this post
kinda want to write a pynch au where adam, who continues to scam college students with tarot cards and psychic scams, meets ronan and gansey (or blue, but gansey is funnier) and is convinced they're dating and starts using his psychic gimmick to make gansey think he should break up with ronan so ronan will date him instead ok lmk if that's fun bye
(at any given moment) i should reread the raven cycle
idk i don’t get why everyone’s making live action versions of movies. I just watched httyd live action and it added like nothing??? what’s the point? just watch the original or rerelease it in cinemas and save a few billion dollars.
what’s next? a live action fantastic mr fox? well I guess they already did that with the lion king…
but like seriously I’m begging these companies to make something new
fuuuuck i just realized that the future idealized version of myself cant exist without current me being the catalyst for change and doing hard things. has anybody heard about this
they can never take our hey tiger
