becoming the eyes and hands of a sentient forest your boyfriend created is peak boyfriendism, soulmate behavior, couple goals. maybe that's just me tho
headcanon that neil and andrew don't necessarily hide their relationship in public but also absolutely refuse to acknowledge it. neil asked about his relationship with andrew "yeah i hate that guy", andrew asked if he and neil are actually together "i don't know who neil josten is" and then someone will spot them kissing in the car and they'd both be like "this is not our car"
little miss awful body temperature regulation is taking his hoodie off again
sorry in what way exactly did kaz fumble inej
he paid off her indenture so she could be free, bought her a ship and found her a first mate so she could follow her dream, and brought her her parents so she could see them again, all while she promises to return to him
man had the most extreme trauma and armor up and still managed to make the baddest girl ketterdam has ever seen fall hard for him
that’s 10/10 game imo
My canon: Neil is super weird, but in a way people don't expect and it catches them unaware. He will have a perfectly normal conversation with you and then you realise he doesn't ignore the first slice of bread of the loaf, uses it right after opening it to make a sandwich. He doesn't have a set way of replacing the toilet paper roll. He does sock-shoe-sock-shoe. He takes the peel of the banana off completely before eating it on the go. He unplugs the laptop yanking on the cable not the plug. He eats kiwis with the skin on like they're apples. He eats dry cereal then drinks a glass of milk.
Neil Josten is like an alien that has managed to blend in quite well with the humans but sometimes he does something that reminds you he's a martian

Can bunny hurry up and get killed I can't listen to him anymore
Sometimes I think about them and it makes me want to claw my heart out.
random thoughts i’m having while rereading the trb (this is just in the first like 80 pages because im obsessed)
oh my god gansey canonically drinks frapaccinos (because he’s so 2013 hipster)
“i thought you were dead in a ditch” i love ronan
gansey is so unknowable in the books no wonder everyone’s so obsessed with him
love that adam’s crush on ronan manifests first through an obsession with declan. ronan and declan would both equally hate that
gansey and ronan do donuts with their cars?? they are the same
ganseys duality being shown through having a bunch of random history books and swimsuit magazines thrown around is so funny
declan, king. why would you bring your girlfriend to meet your estranged brother’s weird friends - and specifically ask said friends to make sure it’s when ronan is gone lmao he’s so weird
glendower doesn’t gets mentioned until pg.44 - we have to get through copious and lovely descriptions by adam of gansey’s psyche in order to find out like, the plot of the book
we sort of get hints of gansey being friends with both declan and ronan until nialls death and him ultimately picking ronan which, ouch.
WHY IS GANSEY SUCH AS ASSHOLE OH MY GOD BLUE RUN i love them
omg blue describes gansey as “very tall” and around the same height as the other boys - rip short king representation (this is not aftg ig)
CANNOT STRESS HOW VALID BLUE IS AND HOW STUPID GANSEY IS WHEN THEY MEET WHY ARE YOU BEING SO CREEPY GANSEY
“devil waitress ” and “evil” jesus christ gansey calm down
love the fact that while ronan and declan are fighting and gansey is breaking up the fight, adam is playing with a spongebob bouncy ball. unbothered king
