y'all remember when chainsaw man said "capitalism and abuse makes people so lonely and isolated that they risk their own integrity and well being just to have an normal life and be loved" and now it's saying "to meet someone who understands you and you relate to is disturbing and disgusting and so annoying but now you'll never be alone again and you would give everything to keep them" yea that fucks me up a little
HAPPY MANWHORE MONDAY
If Gansey were in PJO he would be a child of Aphrodite because how else could you explain the fact that all of his friends were in love with him.
This man wears exclusively boat shoes, pastel polo shirts, and his school uniform. He implied the love of his was a prostitue. He called Ronan his dog. He has the vocabulary of a 70 year old english professor. He’s a loser who I love very much but he should not pull as much as he does.
He’s got to be pretty.
thinking about adam parrish as "adam" parrish, the first man- not able to rely on anyone else, needing to do everything for himself. the constant fear hanging over his head of returning to the (henrietta) dust from which he was made, of never outgrowing his upbringing.
blue sargent, whose name immediately evokes strangeness- and ronan lynch, whose name immediately evokes violence.
noah czerny, who is known by his first and last names independently - acknowledged only for his self (gangsey), or only for his family's wealth (whelk). either way, always fragmented and never the whole of who he used to be.
richard campbell gansey iii, who goes by gansey, his family name. gansey, who is constantly trying to live for other people and never himself.
are you free tonight
i woul do anything to be free
it's them
I’m not sure if it’s intentional, but I love that each raven boy corresponds to a horseman of the apocalypse:
Ronan: war (fights anything with a social security number, is also battling his own emotions/fears)
Noah: pestilence (his body/spirit decaying over time)
Adam: famine (often described as hungry, represents a more figurative interpretation of starvation/desire)
Gansey: death (for obvious reasons)
I guess Noah and Gansey could be switched, as Noah is quite literally dead and Gansey could be interpreted as Conquest in place of Pestilence.
anyways, I just thought this was kind of interesting
I bring a sort of "can't read social cues" vibe to every social situation that I can't tell if anyone likes or not
