the world isn’t split into good people and death eaters. we’ve all got both light and dark inside us. what matters is the part we choose to act on… that’s who we really are.
adam is very serious and very driven and very introspective but he is also a geekass nerdbaby so let’s talk about that
literally our introduction to his friendship with ronan is that they’re both covered in scabs because they were dragging each other behind a moving car on one of these things
instead of trying to break up ronan & declan’s fight, he finds a bouncy ball with spongebob printed on it and hangs out in an alley playing with it
goes full on Notice Me Senpai the moment a hot teacher walks in. put your hand down, parrish
he is taking a SCIENTIFIC METHOD EXTRACURRICULAR. who does this. who
the transformer toy??? oh my god??
stares blankly at helen gansey when she asks if he wants to go into whole foods
that time he got stressed out and the narrative was saying “adam melted into the seat” and “adam slithered down even farther into the seat” son please
that time he absolutely lost his shit and started giggling and letting out helpless wails of laughter because of malory’s pigeon show
sees gansey looking at the aglionby dean and mouths “yee-haw” SHUT UP
when gansey decided he was going to wingman adam and adam covered his entire face and was So Embarrassed
his general attitude of “ronan lynch is an ASSHOLE who is HANDSOME and BEAUTIFUL and SUCH A DICK” that started literally with his first paragraph of narration
rmr when the kids brought gwenllian back to fox way and adam/ronan hid in the hallway like babyass cowards and then desperately scrambled out of the house at the first opportunity?
when ronan confessed that he’d dreamt cabeswater into being and adam is internally doing this
“adam wanted desperately and masochistically for tad to ask him where he’d summered”
that time he slept for twenty-four hours and then woke up and drank an entire jug of pomegranate juice before leaving
that other time he slept all night and then woke up and ate two hamburger buns and drank all of ronan’s milk straight out of the jug
his helpless laughter when noah is like “u do have nice legs tho” and blue play-slaps both of them
flirting with his crush by using his psychic connection to a forest to make shitty EDM music play out in the open
smiling cheerily when his crush calls him an asshole
“the two-minute disparity aged him prematurely”
after years of waiting, it finally happens- maggie stiefvater releases the first book of the ronan lynch trilogy. you’re at the bookstore at the release, practically shaking with excitement, passing the hours by swapping theories and headcanons with friends.
at midnight, you dash to the cash register, slamming your money on the counter and taking the novel, thanking the cashier as you squeeze your way through the crowd.
sitting in the passenger seat of your friend’s car, you open the book, barely suppressing tears of joy. taking a deep breath, you crack open the spine.
you read the first words- “Squash one, squash two,” and on and on and on. horrified, you turn the page. this can’t be right, this can’t be all! but the book is empty. the ronan lynch trilogy is the murder squash song, and that is all.
