I’m obsessed with the way Maggie writes dialogue

The heavy world's upon your shoulders, will we burn on or just smolder? Somehow, I know I'll find you there. Oh, you wanna see if you can change it (change it), still, I know I'll see you there.
↑ I put this verse but they all work, somehow (i wanted to do an even longer drawing at the beginning, sheesh).
Linking music with content is my absolute favorite thing to do. I did it with aftg, and also for trc with this post (muse!!) and obviously the animatic, which happens to have turned 1 year old very recently (happy birthday).
Anyway, I'll do a trc reread soon, last time was two years ago (!!), i've read extracts since but it won't do for much longer.
finals season has started and im praying to adam parrish every night

I recently got back into digital art and had an idea but not really the talent to execute but this was my try at adam parrish as the magician tarot card
i can’t believe some of y’all read this line and decided to be normal about it
i love going about my day and acting like I don’t think about it every waking moment
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
the purpose of friends is to have people who unconditionally hate your shitty exes & relatives. like maybe YOU have a complex relationship with your father but i sure don't. i'm outside his house with a gun. he's not the unforgivable asshole who raised me he's just an unforgivable asshole
-The Raven King, page 283
-Ronan Lynch, TRK, page 391
just finished rereading trk, heartbreaking quotes coming soon…
Your boyfriend starts mumbling in Latin in his sleep and it scares the hell out of you but upon translation he’s introducing himself, inquiring on the price of grain, attempting to sell dormice, brainstorming silly Saturnalia gift ideas. In his sleep he somehow becomes a 1st century BC plebeian, of modest means but with a pleasant outlook on mundane life.
yk what we don’t talk about enough???? ronan PRE-buzz, like his hair is described as “long and dark and curled, neatly to his chin” HELLO WDYM HE HAD A BOB????
“I was here. I exist. I’m alive because I bleed”
-Adam Parrish, BLLB, page 315
found a certain someone’s car at the book store
i know homophobic bully turns out to actually be gay themselves is a pretty standard trope but i don't think anyone has ever done it with quite the same commitment as joseph kavinsky. he literally sent gansey a dick pic from ronan's phone. like why did you do that king
"For the love of...Parrish, take some care, this is not your mother's 1971 Honda Civic"
Adam lifted his head and said, "They didn't start making the Civic until '73".

NO BC IM REREADING TRB AND THAT HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK
Waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat because you remembered Ronan Lynch canonically plays tennis

the dream thieves is the most perfect book ever because adam and gansey are going through a divorce, blue is breaking up with adam, ronan lets go of his crush on gansey in favor of perusing his para-religious devotion to adam full time, kavinsky is obsessed with having a threesome with gansey and ronan and sends gansey a dick pic from ronan’s phone, gansey starts dating blue behind adam's back the second they're freshly divorced and adam and blue have broken up, ronan turns kavinsky down and as a reaction to that kavinsky kidnaps ronans brother and then kills himself in front of their whole group. everyone is completely unfazed by this except for gansey who seems to care a little bit which adam thinks is cute. it's also in this book that the hitman who killed ronan’s dad starts hitting on blue’s mom. sound off in the comments if you know of any other ya books similar to this
