ronan was so real for skipping having a crush and going straight into para-religious devotion at the first sight of adam
say what you will about leigh bardugo's worldbuilding choices but "guy who's hiding his superpowers is so constantly understimulated he developed a gambling addiction to cope" is fucking brilliant actually
imagine the aglionby rowing team was super intense about winning championships or whatever and then gansey, the literal captain of the team, is like “hey sorry, i have to quit, i think i need to really commit to focusing on my dead welsh king hunting and i have to be home more so my best friend doesn’t drag race with his situationship :/“
as funny as it is to joke about Adam taking matters into his own hands and shooting his Latin teacher (and you can rip all those jokes out of my frigid and lifeless hands) i feel an obligation to remind people that Adam did not have that gun with the intent to kill anyone, doesn't view it explicitly as murder, and expresses multiple times he's very uncomfortable having aforementioned gun in the first place. which speaks to his overall character in ways these jokes can forget. like, yes, playing semantics over whether it "counts" as him killing a guy is genuinely hilarious in retrospect, and Adam absolutely brought that gun knowing he might use it despite hoping it wasn't necessary. He also took the gun from his father in the first place to make sure it was never pulled on his mom and holds onto it to prevent a random kid finding it. He feels better when Whelk makes him get rid of it. It's used less as a weapon and more as a bargaining chip. I think it says a lot about Adam's age and his relationship with violence, actually, that he has a general disdain (and fear) surrounding guns and is all too eager to get away from it.
The Raven Boys ch 4 // The Raven Boys ch 21
Declan being called a “man-whore” but within months of meeting Jordan, he’s like “by the time we’re married….”
I imagine he was just as much of a romantic as Ronan the whole time—he just wasn’t allowed to be.
So I finished reading six of crows. Goooood book good book

adam @ gansey in the infamous fight in trb:
absolutely no other fictional character will EVER top ronan lynch in yearning. in devotion. "a combination that focused most of the objects of Ronan's worship into one downtown block" oh. "his feelings for Adam were like an oil spill" oh!!! "it was a choice between death and hurting adam, and that wasn't much of a choice at all" OH. he was on a whole other level
