I think I finally found my Adam Parrish. All fan casts I've seen of him have been too traditionally attractive or plain (no offense meant) but he's described as being feather boned, an alien handsome, having a curious face, raw boned and feral. One of those where you look at him and it's like slightly off putting but in an intriguing way. So hear me out!! This is him, obviously with different hair but that face is 100% it

I think.... I think ronan might have been wrong about the dreaming tree. It doesn't show you whatever would fuck you up the most, because I don't think blue or gansey's visions were half so terrible as Adam's (or whatever Ronan first saw), nor as terrible as it could be
I think it showed visions of how each of them could kill gansey
Adam, as he was in trb, less bound to the leyline and the others, more desperate, less grown up, absolutely could have made a mistake in his ambitious quest for freedom that lead to gansey's death. And in a twisted way the dream came true with Ronan, and ronan's double, in the church
Gansey saw himself finding glendower, the quest he'd dedicated his life to, the man he credits for his life. Without this quest, what is gansey, really? And gansey of trb wasn't ready for his quest to suddenly be over. I don't know if he would have survived it, he'd probably spiral at best. And in the end it is his quest that kills him, by finding the demon, by dying shortly after he discovers glendower is also dead, by dying the first time so close to the entrance to glendower's tomb. Gansey, glendower and death have been interwoven since the beginning
Blue knew her kiss would kill gansey, but unlike the other's, HER vision comes true, word for word and action for action. I checked. It's exactly the same.
And ronan.... tragedy has destroyed his life and he rebuilt it with gansey as his support pillar. Losing gansey, as many have pointed out, would destroy him. Being the REASON gansey dies? I think that IS one of the worst things that could happen to him. And that would indeed be the kind of thing that would fuck him up the most. I think that's what the vision tree showed him
TLDR: the vision tree shows possible futures where everyone in the gangsey is the reason for Gansey's death, because his death is such a heavy event that it cant be escaped. And even though only blue's one comes true, the other's experience twisted versions of their visions coming true anyway to reflect their growth and change and now I'm not okay

I don't know what I miss more, having free time to draw or these fellas
The raven cycle!!!!
Oh I love these guys. Everything about these books, I want to draw them soooo much more (I probably will)!!
Guys I'm back-
It has been a nightmare lately this is the only thing I managed to draw in weeks? Finals and uni stuff that's taking all of my time and energy, slowly turning me into a cafeinated slug (worst part is caffeine doesn't even have an effect on me? I only drink coffee for the TASTE can you imagine).
Anyway the rush won't be over until end of January but hopefully I'll be able to ignore the stress and draw anyway :)

 “the way Gansey saw it was this: if you had a special knack for finding things, it meant you owed the world to look.”

“She had opened her mouth, and at first, all that came out was air. Then something like the beginning of a laugh. Then, finally, she managed to sputter, “I am not a prostitute”
The Aglionby boy appeared puzzled for a long moment, and then realisation dawned. “Oh, that is not how I meant it. That is not what I said.” “
