Ronan Lynch My Beloved - Tumblr Posts
Screaming. wailing. incandescent with unintelligible emotion about greywaren
maggie stiefvater was so insane for the way she wrote pynch’s first kiss because the model car adam holds in his hands before ronan comes into the room literally reminds adam of a model car he once bought with his own money as a child and then adam recalls a memory of starring at the model car and overhearing his parents talking about how they both regret ever having had a child. and then adam decides to put that memory away instead of reliving it over and over again. and then ronan sits down next to him and adam puts the model car- the metaphor for adam’s childhood and the fact that he was unwanted in the first place- into ronan’s hand and just lets it go and then ronan kisses him. because adam is wanted now. he grew up unloved and unwanted but he is very much loved and wanted by the people he chose to have in his life now. like. that is literally the most insane way she could have possibly written their first kiss
I'm sorry but nothing will ever be more chaotic and deranged and hilarious than Ronan fucking Lynch answering Henry's "Parrish , how are you not dead?" with "it's your bullshit sings , they created a bullshit force field" all cool and unfazed as if Adam had not just almost been CRUSHED TO DEATH
I know that we are all aware of the many similarities between All for the game and The Raven cycle but I feel the need to point them out anyway. These books are all amazing and life changing and I would not recommend them to ANYONE, but everyone in the world needs to read them. They are just books. No they are NOT, they are an experience. You read them for the first time because why not and then you have to re read them constantly because your whole life revolves around them now. They make no fucking sense whatsoever and yet every word is etched into my soul. Everyone in the books has so much past trauma and gains new trauma during the story. Everyone is SO loved. The found families are top tier, and every member would die for the others no questions asked. There's murder. There's abusive parents. There's iconic cars. There's unhinged characters obsessed with random things ( exy- finding a dead Welsh king ). There's ravens. All the characters are lgbtq because we say so. They're stories about finding your place in the world.
everywhere i go, i carry ronan lynch with me. if you even care
