Declan is described as looking like a combination of Ronan and a polished tailored guy like Gansey or Greenmantle, which in theory makes him like the pinnacle of the type of guys Adam is attracted too. Just don’t tell that to Adam Declan Ronan or Gansey it won’t go over well.

i can’t believe not one but two characters said “i know what you are” to ronan in the dream thieves and somehow neither of them were referring to his homosexual tendencies

They are my life now. All the characters are the love of my life, and I’m yearning for a place that doesn’t exist. If you even care.

in love with how ronan said i hate my brother and then married a cold logical man who is obsessed with both his success and looking presentable 24/7 and then declan said ugh fuck that jackass ronan and then married a baddie covered with tattoos who loves self expression and has a wicked mouth.

everyone’s always like ‘ronans so catholic’ in reference to like his deep spirituality or shame in dreaming or whatever but nobody uses it to talk about how even after adam and ronan made out shirtless all night he made them sleep in separate bedrooms. like that is the most catholic he’s ever been

the dreamer trilogy (2019-2022)

Ooooh boy

He’d been a liar his entire life.

the dreamer trilogy really went "wouldn't it be fucked up if you had real, tangible proof that without your childhood trauma you could be happy? like, wouldn't it be fucked up if you made a copy of yourself but deleted all the childhood trauma and then that copy was capable of living a happy, independent life while you're constantly on the verge of dying and miserable and drowning in self-hatred??" and i'm just supposed to live w that

:’-)

the best thing maggie stiefvater ever did was NOT having ronan dream a magical device that would "fix" adam's hearing. the best thing maggie ever did was adam knowing that he did not need or want to be "fixed". the best thing maggie ever did was ronan knowing that adam did not want or need to be fixed and accepting it without a second thought.

The “Chainsaw is Ronan’s heart” metaphor goes SO hard and I cannot stop thinking about it. Chainsaw being a fragile baby bird that Ronan has to constantly care for during The Raven Boys, a tiny thing that’s up screaming in the middle of the night. By the Dream Thieves she’s grown, but she’s rarely around during that book. Only in times where Ronan feels at peace—showing his dream plane to his friends, sitting on the floor of Monmouth with Gansey explaining his dreams—or when he’s being particularly vulnerable—giving her to Calla and learning about how to save his mother. By Blue Lily, Lily Blue, Chainsaw is once again a permanent presence, as Ronan has accepted himself and is coming into his own—he’s still hurting, but he’s healing slowly. To the end of the series, where she has a special name for Atom, but shes missing from the finale, missing after Ronan discovers his mother’s body. And in the Dreamer Trilogy, where she’s with Ronan but less of an importance. Where Adam brings her to a sleeping Ronan, and wakes her to see him again.

oh yeah don’t mind me i’m just thinking about how blue and gansey are technically the main characters of this story but it’s still not entirely about them and how ronan isn’t the hero of this story but he is the hero of a story that branches off from it and how adam would’ve been the villain in a worse version of the story but he had too much loyalty to the narrative to let his friends go and how the story could never be about noah but it also could never be about anyone except for noah

i need more art of these two together

Yes, thought Adam. Understanding prickled and then evaded him. He read the words at the bottom of the card.
