The raven bunch plays the Get Down Mr. President! game:
- Gansey always loses. Always. Even when he’s trying to be the one to start the game. Others would just ignore him and wait until he’s distracted enough to target him again.
Ronan always manages to get to Gansey first, even if he’s the farthest away from him. He could be standing at the other end of the room and he’d still be first to reach him. It’s because Ronan loves to be able to tackle Gansey to the ground without being lectured afterwards.
And the ensuing hugs are nice too.- Over the time Blue developed some sort of Raven Boys Bullshit sense. She can always tell when her boys are up to something. The women of 300 Fox Way aren’t sure how she’s doing it except Gwenllian who says that back in the day she could always sense when her father and people from his court were being idiots.

Basically I got really into this idea of the ley lines falling over the Bermuda Triangle so that all the forest imagery of the series was underwater instead.
Started listening to The Raven Boys on my way home today, and guys. I have ALL THE QUESTIONS about Noah.
I now have fewer questions about Noah and a heck of a lot more questions about everyone else’s observation skills.

WARNING: MAJOR TRK SPOILERS!

Trk spoilers: ////
After a while (as all tragic things do) gansey and co. start finding ganseys death hilarious? It’s gansey that starts it – saying things like “well the third times the charm, Jane,” or “this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to me including the two times i died.”
Ronan is the first to catch up never missing an opportunity to be a little shit so like Blue will be being difficult at gansey and Ronan will just be like “I mean damn maggot you’ve already killed the kid let him buy an air hockey table if he wants to”
Adam surprises them with a joke too he’s in the middle of college applications and essays and aglionby school work and he leans back and let’s out a heavy sigh and goes “this actually might be more stressful than watching blue murder gansey”
They all start doing it “the night gansey was killed-” “stop telling people I’m dead” “sometimes we can still hear his voice” or “this is worse than gansey dying that one time” “which time?”
And then finally finally one day blue gives in and says “Richard Campbell Gansey the iii, if you don’t knock it off I’m going to kill you again”
And gansey laughs so hard at this it starts as a gentle eye crinkling laugh that dissolves into literal giggles
