imagine the picture of dorian gray (1891) but dorian is jude law in wilde (1997) and lord henry is hugh grant in maurice (1987)
i saw nona spoilers on your blog that made me think she was actually the soul of every cow john killed. shes innocent because shes cow, doesnt like food because she wants to eat grass, shes uncoordinated because she used to have hooves, the language thing is just a thing cows can do. thank you it was a good way to read the book
this fucking rules. fuck the nona ending i'm choosing to believe this now
i need a friend group that consists of the narcissistic blond twink who sold his soul via a painting of himself, a miserable gay artist (dead) who is in love with said blond twink, and a corrupting nobleman who didn't get the memo that it's okay to shut the fuck up sometimes
i’m pretty sure ronan lynch described his feelings for adam parrish as an oil spill. and gansey said that loving blue sargent was like breathing. and adam parrish said that making ronan lynch smile was as charged as making a bargain with a magical forest. and ronan lynch said he would rather die than hurt adam parrish. and gansey said he would do anything just to make adam parrish smile. and ronan lynch gave blue sargent his flashlight so she wouldn’t be in the dark. and gansey and ronan lynch ran to adam parrish’s trial. and ronan lynch dreamt a sun and handcream and a car. and gansey could sleep after talking to blue sargent. and adam parrish came to get ronan lynch when he was drowning in his own mind. and ronan lynch wrote remembered over and over and over for noah czerny. and gansey and ronan lynch went and got orange juice. and adam parrish never wanted to fight with gansey again because he was his best friend. and ronan lynch worshiped adam parrish. and gansey wanted the old ronan lynch back but really just wanted any ronan lynch he could have. and they were all in love with one another.

nona cow theory
before i read nona the ninth, i saw spoilers that convinced me nona was the soul of the cows john killed. reading the book only further confirmed this
It was April 24th, St. Mark’s Eve. ✨
Happy TRC Day to those who celebrate!
rotating john gaius in my head and how he is both a coloniser and a victim of colonisation and how, when presented with the opportunity to rebuild all of society from the ground-up, chose not to model it after his own oppressed culture, but instead after an aesthetic VERY CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH WHITE SUPREMACY (neoclassicism), and how his daughter is the only thing in his entire, expansive empire that he named in his language in ten thousand years, and how he perpetuates the cycle he himself was a victim of. tearing my hair out tazmuir WHEN I GET YOU
I know Abigail saying Ianthe was "never quite the thing" is probably meant to reference some kind of political beef between them, but I just have this mental image of 14 year old Abigail being handed baby Ianthe at whatever the evil necromancer equivalent of a christening party is and just immediately deciding that this baby's vibes were weird.
the locked tomb series is really like. maybe love doesn't conquer all. maybe love is not pure and good and holy. maybe love is not a white dove come to save you from yourself. maybe it won't fix you. maybe it'll make everything worse. maybe love is dirty and ugly and terrifying and awful. maybe it'll kill you. maybe it'll warp you into something unrecognizable. maybe love is a parasite and by the time you realize it's there, it's too late to tear it out of you, no matter how badly you might want to. maybe it's a cordiceps fungus, tangled up in your nerves, making you do things you'd never ordinarily do. maybe love is a dog with its jaw locked on your arm. maybe love is an angry ghost. maybe love is a brain hemorrhage, a seizure, two weeks of sleeplessness and cracking open your own tibia unanesthetized in a bathroom. maybe it's the ocean you'll drown in. maybe it's poison. maybe it's scary and filthy and difficult and bad for you.
so what now? are you going to stop? are you even going to try?
no. of course you aren't.
They’re making a Dorian Gray TV show but they’re making Basil and Dorian siblings. I’m going to commit a murder not only does that erase most of the book but is actually literally homophobic. Basil is in love with Dorian!!! That book was so gay it was used against Oscar Wilde in trial!! I’m going to go to jail for crimes against Netflix
