the raven boys / the dream thieves
they’d all forgotten that adam was an animal. love this parallel because
1. being his own master w/ the devil/lucifer’s estrangement from heaven + animal autonomy
2. adam (sometimes) believes he is intrinsically bad but this is only (partially) because he was ‘cast out’ by a higher power!
4. many people’s assumptions about adam are wrong. their pitiful “drawings” of him don’t contain his true complexities, and/or at least he thinks they never can.
3. ronan wants to fuck the devil. okay!
4. coca-cola t-shirt 🥺 the archetype of “adam” in red…
HAPPY MANWHORE MONDAY
declan describing adam as a “creepily clever little fuck” may be the most accurate thing. ever.

they love me because I be saying shit like alas and perchance
rereading blue lily lily blue. gansey, your autistic swag has forever bewitched me
I’m not sure if it’s intentional, but I love that each raven boy corresponds to a horseman of the apocalypse:
Ronan: war (fights anything with a social security number, is also battling his own emotions/fears)
Noah: pestilence (his body/spirit decaying over time)
Adam: famine (often described as hungry, represents a more figurative interpretation of starvation/desire)
Gansey: death (for obvious reasons)
I guess Noah and Gansey could be switched, as Noah is quite literally dead and Gansey could be interpreted as Conquest in place of Pestilence.
anyways, I just thought this was kind of interesting
they hate me at the bike repair shop due to the fact i am always trying to break the cycle
