there is NOTHING as heartbreakingly lovely as the line: “tell me to go to school closer to you and I will.”
This scene has always stuck with me, purely because of how that line is such an out-of-character thing for Adam to say, but he says it anyway. These words are coming out of the mouth of ADAM PARRISH. This is the same person who had to pretty much kill himself over getting good grades, getting out of Henrietta, and making something of himself. Adam refused to give up on that dream for literally everyone, and we can kind of watch his friendship with Gansey deteriorate because of his pride/how insistent he is that he gets into Harvard.
And he does. But in this scene, Adam witnesses Ronan crying after trashing his dorm room. barely even hesitates before telling Ronan he would leave Harvard just to be CLOSER TO HIM??? like Maggie is actually the sickest person out there for doing that. The fact that he was offering to literally THROW AWAY a life’s dedication of hard work and sacrifice just so Ronan would be COMFORTABLE??? oh I’m going to be SICK. (Of course Ronan declines the offer, and Adam is somewhat relieved he does, it’s still so heartbreaking to see him even propose that idea in the first place)

i love how no one can remember anything from trc except for vibes and so here’s a list i compiled of everything i remember from the entire series
blue made out with a ghost
the ghost was the funniest character and then everyone realized he was a ghost and then everyone forgot about him
persephone lived in the attic
there was a tree that showed them their worst fears when they went inside it and for whatever reason they took turns going inside it like why did they do that and also i think ronan dreamt it????
im pretty sure the trees spoke latin
was that a thing
now that i’m thinking about it i have no idea
boat shoes
the set up for manmouth manufacturing was set up in a way only teenage boys with no supervision could set up
they pulled a little defense against the dark arts teachers but with latin class instead and but i don’t remember how many latin teachers there were
blue and gansey talked on the phone
and then they took little drives but i don’t remember how often that happened
adam straight up killed a dude
blue is NOT a prostitute but she IS half tree

gansey has seen ronans dick at least once
adam and ronan ran around pushing each other in shopping carts
“she makes me quiet”
ronan did imaginary drugs and it ended with his organless brother getting kidnapped because his drug buddy had a big fat crush on him and i’m pretty sure there were fireworks involved in the rescue
did gansey go around knocking on doors and talking to people in different accents or was that lockwood and co? or was it both?
adam and ronan went around moving rocks because the trees that talked to adam told him to
