Richard Campbell Gansey Iii - Blog Posts

ok so with the new trc art with the tarot cards on the box, i need to share my rant about all of their meanings:

okay so blue is 11, which is two things. in the major arcana, that is “judgement” which is literally the card about being SENSIBLE!! LIKE HELLOO OKAY also in minor arcana, 11s are the page cards, like the page of cups. then is adam and he’s is 1 which is magician obvi. THEN is ganey which is 7 which is the chariot and that’s about like established yourself and the importance of conviction in ur life. then is ronan who is 6 WHICH IS THE FREAKING LOVERS LIKE AHHHHH and it makes so much sense because like yeah obvious he loves so much but ALSO on the card for the lovers is ADAM and eve sooooooooo 🤭 and finally the most heart breaking of all is noah who is the hanged man, which in about the importance of SACRIFICE!!! BUT EVEN MOREEE IS THAT THAT CARD IS OFTEN COMPARED TO THE CHARIOT SAYING THAT THE SACRIFICE OF THE HANGED MAN IS JUST AS POWERFUL AS THE CHARIOT’S WILL

okay thanks for coming to my ted talk

found a certain someone’s car at the book store

fall but in a sleeping kings and doomed romances and living dreams kind of way

This sounds so much like Blue and Ronan. Lol

Not as couples though.

happy birthday adam parrish!!!

HELP IM SO EXCITED AND IT COMES OUT DURING MY BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!!!

cmon you little gaaayyyssss,, i’m lonely and adventurous

me, dressed as richard campbell gansey the third, elegantly striding around my conservative neighborhood, trying to encourage the gays to emerge so I can lead them on an adventure to raise a dead welsh king and slowly become more and more magically unhinged while we leave our abuse families and road trip at 2am when we have insomnia and god we can’t stop staring at each other’s lips,

Ever since the trc graphic novel news came out the only thing I can think about are the gangsey's heights, so here is MY hc on that

I think its described in the books that blue is VERY short and around 5 feet or something but i wanna give her the benefit of doubt so i hc my girl as 5'1 ft (154 cm). Ronan is lanky right? Is he or is he not? Or was it adam that was lanky? Nvm he's still fking tall to me so he's near 6'2 ft (188 cm I think?). Noah also seems to be a bit short. But average. Like mid size. He seems like he's 5'9 ft (179 cm) (I'm gonna ignore the fact that him and gansey are almost the same height in the novel). MOVING on to Adam. He's tall alright. But not as tall as ronan so I think 5'11 or 6 ft (182 cm) Henry's the same height (or atleast near it) NOW. PEOPLE. My beloved. Dick. Gansey. The lll. Is 5'7ft (short king). graphic novels did us short gansey truthers justice. He's pocket sized. And we love him. Yes we do.

love LOVE love the rise in trc posts after the announcement of the graphic novel I'm going FERAL over every picture at this point

napping on the way home after spending all day looking for dead welsh kings <3

GOING FREAKISH FREAL INSANE CHEWING ON CONCRETE!!!!!!

Gansey calls Blue by the right name and then says alright enough feminism for today

I will just leave it there and pretend im normal about this dialogue

THIS IS BLUESEY

Scrawny by Wallows is such a Gansey-coded song tho

the raven cycle is so cool. i wish virginia was real 😔

Remember that scene in trc when Blue couldn't stop crying because Gansey didn't text her back?

yeah, me neither. He's not your true love, babe.

I think of this all the time

Especially when Gansey gets all in his head with the fact everyone else feels like they’re so far past him, and how he always feels he is somehow going to be left behind. Imagine having that insecurity not only become a reality but something so indisputable as DEATH.

even with Noah who is dead, Gansey never once lashes out to him/at him with that experience. Or tries to relate to him in way he would feel would minimize Noah’s own afterlife.

He never begs for things to be different, or as op says lashes out, he is so startling calm that even when he does die, it’s almost peaceful.

can we talk about gansey knowing he’s going to die???? bc there are so many angles on it. he never guilts ronan or any of his friends about it, there is no ‘for when i’m not around to sort out your messes speech’. he doesn’t assign any responsibility to anyone. there is no talk about taking care of ronan. none of his friends are tasked with sorting through his things. it could be argued that some of this is because of his security in his friends and their growth as people allowing them to care for one another but he doesn’t talk about it at all. he doesn’t even tell ronan. i don’t remember if he knows adam knows but i don’t think he does. for the entire series he’s accommodating the emotions and struggles and outbursts of everyone around him and when it comes to his death, he simply continues. he doesn’t trouble his friends who have their own problems or who may be upset by his oncoming death and just continues as he was. 

gansey and adam @ each other: god I wish that were me

This came to mind and i had to

I just finished reading The Raven Cycle series
