doodle bc this is extremely Jean coded
My favorite plot twist in trc was Ronan being an absolute fucking loser. Like wdym the stoic spontaneous bad boy listens to EDM and wants to be a farmer??? And people are SCARED of him??? Please.

It was the 90's! Yeah babe!
I read a head canon saying Harry hated tight clothes after his childhood with the Dursley, always wearing Dudley's too big for him stuff. So here he is in his baggy!
Hermione's in high colored outfit
And Ron with the inevitable combo backpack/army jacket.
Obviously it’s a general rule in fiction that a character cannot be who you first believe they are, but trc just takes it to a whole other level. By the end of The Raven King, every single character is so drastically different from how they were in The Raven Boys, partially because of their own development, but also because of how the perspectives are divvied out between books so neatly that you get basically an entire character study in each one alongside the overall plot. Everytime I reread it I’m so off-put by the first book because of how differently they used to act and think, even if it the timeline is only a few months. Maggie Stiefvater please never die
Do y’all think Jean and Kevin used to play smash or pass but it was court or not court
Sometimes I’m okay and then I remember that at the end of trk Noah is literally just gone. Like no one remembers him. It’s like he never existed in the first place and no one can even be sad about that because they DON’T EVEN REMEMBER GOD IM GONNA BE SICK NO ONE KNOWS THAT HE LOVES GLITTER AND SPIKY HAIR AND HATES BEING ALONE AN

Everyone always talks abt the Pynch wedding but I lowkey feel like they wouldn’t have one. In fact, I feel like they would just sign the papers and not tell anyone until one day Gansey, Blue, and Henry come to visit the barns and one of them notices the ring and is like “wait wtf you’re engaged?” and Ronan just gives them a weird look and replies “we’re married” and then all hell breaks loose.
Burning oceans, hand kinks, whatever whatever LOOK AT HOW RONAN DREAMS OF ADAM HE LITERALLY WORSHIPS HIM
