i just love how my instagram fyp realised aftg is back to having a chokehold over me (SO back) so it immediately started recommending me the raven cycle fanarts because apparently the universe decided these series go hand in hand and now it's a rule lmao
broken boy by cage the elephant is neil josten coded tell me i'm wrong i'll wait
rip nicky hemmick you would have loved eurovision
Pretty sure Jean has Jeremy’s hair on his list of things worth living for 👀
yesterday I saw a fanart of tipsy Cat singing Chiquitita by ABBA to Jean (the art was by gremlinn_ddraws on ig) and I can't stop thinking about how perfectly this song fits him I fear I just cannot bring myself to not see the perfect representation of Jean's path
'You're enchained by your own sorrow/ In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow'
'Now I see you've broken a feather' Jean never escaping the bird references huh
'You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end' I sure hope it will
'But the sun is still in the sky and shinin' above you' what is it if not Jeremy and the Trojans in Jean's life
digital diary something something contd: just gotten my delivery with two paperbacks the sunshine court and the golden raven might lowkey explode from joy
i am so excited to buy some highlighter pens to mark quotes and thing is i've never highlighted anything in my books before the most i've done so far when reading was annotations with just random remarks written with pencil but for some reason this idea has been living rent free in my head since i decided i needed tsc in physical form and i am so hyped to colour code jean's and jeremy's quotes when rereading and maybe get another extra colour for wholesome moments overall omfg what have i become
I love Jean so so much. Five years in hell and still his favorite color is that of his lovers eyes and the garden he tended to after he chose to heal. Five years in hell and still he cares enough to ask if Cody was safe. Five years in hell and still he put rainbows on his list of miracles, and open roads, and friends, and fathers. Five years in hell and still he wants to grow a peach tree. Five years in hell and still "Stupid, beautiful Kevin" and "not your capacity for unkindness but how fiercely you fight against it" and "Jean moved without thinking, pressing a close-mouthed kiss to her temple the way she did whenever she thought he was unraveling."
saw a version with the hunger games and made this to visualise my current state

the song mowgli's road by marina is soooo jean moreau coded here are my arguments:
"I'll escape if I try hard enough,/Till, King of the Jungle calls my bluff" literally jean in the first few months after being sold to be riko's
THEN "I'll do as I am told" literally pre-healing jean at the beginning of tsc (and during his life before renee saved him)
"You say Y-E-S to everything" jean at the nest because he knew No was not an option
and MOST IMPORTANTLY "Do you think you will be good enough,/To love others and to be loved?" LITERALLY JEAN'S CONSTANT TRAIN OF THOUGHTS
I'm obsessed
maybe it's just my katarsis (as in the lithuanian band) brainrot overlapping with my jerejean brainrot (send help) but i can't stop thinking about how the song tavo akys really fits jerejean so well like firstly there is this general desperation and the hunger the song conveys to me personally that just makes me think about how both jean and jeremy have this overwhelming feelings for each other they don't realise are mutual (yet) AND jean thinking about jeremy's eyes (don't even get me started on the whole brown thing) and how jean sees jeremy's smiles often don't reach them but ALSO on the other hand jeremy seeing jean's trauma in his expression so often so the whole part of the song with "your eyes see pain" and so on can be applied to them both from each others perspectives AND THEN at the beginning of the song "the home burns" like hello what a coincidence and this is regarding both their feelings figuratively and the arson situation literally (rip cozy home nr 1) (they'll build a new one together) ALSO there is this general feeling of hopelessness to the song and the boys are so falling for each other but don't allow any hope to get added to the equation (not yet anyway) (though jean at least is on the right path with admitting to himself what he WANTS) (tsc3 has me waiting on my knees) (please let them hope and get what they hoped for please)
so i was rereading aftg this week and since i had read it for the first time lots has changed including the fact my german has become really good (i'm afraid of the word fluent like i can't seriously be that vain yk) and since i've lived in germany for the last three years i was kinda automatically translating all of andrew's group's conversations in my head as i was reading i guess i wanted to experience the plot with how they could've potentially sound and now i'm wondering how many people were doing the same as they read it
ok i'll try treating tumblr like my personal diary again:
a couple days ago i accidentally spiralled back into an unhealthy obsession with the aftg series which was so random but it's about four years after i've read the og trilogy for the first time and imagine my reaction when i found out there's a sequel about my favourite character like hello??????? i haven't slept properly since monday but now i've read all five existing books and how to survive until the release of the sixth one is beyond my comprehension i fear
anyway i forgot how aftg makes my mental health state ten times better and hundred times worse at the same time wtf is this piece of literature
what I need desperately rn to feel good again is a book-accurate film adaptation of the Howl Series
