pynch, you better win😭🙏 (a crime to put these two up against eachother so early, really)
Characters, book, and author names under the cut
Ronan Lynch/Adam Parrish - The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater
Patroclus/Achilles - The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
the lynch brothers are so funny to me bc they’re like.
1. ancient demon god in a skin suit who births monsters and craves violence
2. homunculus with no internal organs and an innate desire to walk to an unknown destination
3. declan
i can not get white trash southern barty out of my head with his unsettling, dead eyed, french boyfriend
ahhh what would happen if i unironically read rovinsky fics? is that punishable by death?
cannot stop thinking about how, from jean’s pov, neil is a Creature. an insane little man. jean expresses physical attraction or at least physical appreciation towards many of the characters in this book, and despite the foxes’ insistence that neil is good looking, to jean neil is always just… a weird and slightly unsettling presence. a strange and arrogant creature with no leash on him. an uncanny force of nature.
Nora, I am suing you for the damage that Jean's angst has done to my mental health. But also I forgive you just because you let Neil go feral.
y'all ever think about how ronan lived because declan loved him btw
Okay but what lives rent free in my head is the literal connection between K and the devil in trc (or at least how i understood it)
I don't know do y'all remember the scene or made the connection like i did, but it was in the end of tdt, before the party and adam and persephone were fixing the leyline,
There was the repeated hurry mentioned, hurry hurry hurry but adam didn't know why, until there was a white mitsubishi- K's car (Adam wasn't sure was it K, but i think the gray man was elsewhere and that'd also be the time K went to kidnap matthew (it was K's car so the connection is to K))
right after was this:
Persephone turned over a card. The Devil.
All of a sudden, Adam was quite certain of why they were hurrying.
THE DEVIL im not crazy right? How i see it, (im gonna ignore how maggie made the easiest way out of this and gonna focus on other things) is that K's tarot is the devil, straight connection right?
it could also be a way of showing the blatant black and white of ronan and K, because K thinks that he's a god, but what and is he really the devil (yes i say), that'd for me to mean ronan was the god
after all, (im not religious nor catholic) but they think god as good (i hope or im rlly out of religion), and when it comes to dreaming ronan is the greywaren at the end, not a thief, he uses his power for good
K was made to be the bad person, but also from my perspective (+ now adding the religious one a bit), the devil isn't bad, it has a very different view of the world and whats right and whats wrong compared to god who has stricter limits or separating good and bad, black and white of each other (ying and yang shit), which is why the devil fits K so well, and god more or less ronan
(added, satan is an undername for the overall term of the devil (which might not be correct (im not sure (i think?))) but satan is often associated with fire and also is angel of Death / is seen as the fallen angel which once again, fits K)
it also might be that satan and the devil are two different, (i acc think this one is the more correct), satan could be "the god of evil" but not certainly the devil, (also lucifer is different than either of those, but satan and lucifer both under devil, (not the devil itself)) (please tell me if you know how satan, the devil and lucifer go because i do not know for sure)
today's pick of who gets to kiss kevin day is none other than (drumroll) aaron michael minyard! gay thoughts supplied by realization that i enjoyed writing the way we are so much and i must indulge myself again soon
NOBODY understands that short, depressed, asshole, med student, who’s just trying to graduate without being targeted by the mafia or an over dramatic college sport cult, the way that I DO
actually can’t wait to see the graphic novel design for K
