it's them
sometimes i’m normal but then sometimes i think about the endless religious symbolism and parallels in the raven cycle and i want to chew on glass. like something something cabeswater and eden. adam’s name, his being made ‘from dust’, his pursuit of knowledge beyond the circumstances of his birth. ronan being referred to as ‘the snake’: the one who always tempts adam into recklessness. ronan and declan and cain and abel (i wash my hands of him) (i am not my brother’s keeper). gansey’s resurrection, his third birth. ‘important things come in threes?’ ‘or sevens’. ronan and joseph kavinsky and joseph the prophet with their strange dreams that overlap into the real world. dreaming as a form of blasphemous creation. the three fox way women and the holy trinity. aurora lynch and the virgin mary and matthew lynch and the infant jesus - immaculate conception, pure souls without sin. absent yet overly mythologized fathers. i am going to throw up
a very “‘Jesus,’ Gansey said. ‘Christ.’” Christmas to you and yours!
HAPPY MANWHORE MONDAY

Yo may12324! Surprise, I drew you some Raven Boys fanart! Just to say thanks for cheering me up the other day when I was sad :*
this too shall bass
adam is austen-protagonist-coded bc he starts falling for ronan once he sees The House and walks around The Grounds with him.
The real tragedy of trc was that Gansey didn't have pinterest. I think he could have been a lot happier.
