Average Fig Post On Crystalbook Or Whatever They Call It

the raven boys

finally starting fantasy high junior year :) very excited to see fig again !!

he lets me hit bc i follow him around like a guard dog and i say stupid shit just to see him smile and i drive way over the speed limit bc he wants to so bad but he never will and i stay up with him when he can’t sleep and we share a carton of orange juice and he looks like a prince in the middle of a dollar general at three in the morning and he leans back on the headrest and the dashboard lights turn his throat green and the bite of possibility is so urgently present i can feel the teeth sinking into my throat and i wonder if mine looks green to him too if he’s even looking and the car is so quiet until he says when i’m gone dream me the world something new for every night and it rips my heart out of my chest because i want him to stay or i want to go with him i just want to be by his side and there are a thousand things i want to say but i don’t say anything i just want him to come back please come back i promise i’ll be better i. where was i going with this

I do not yet have the skills to capture this in the way I envisioned it in my minds eye, but I was really into the symbolism of everyone cheering for a fake Kristen doing a wacky chaotic stunt while the real Kristen suffered invisibly among them

it felt very on theme not only for her personally but also for the theme of junior year as a whole (specifically being forced to hide your problems and your stress in order to perform even as it gets worse)

(added bonus to the imagery was the jump being done at night; what would be Cassandra's domain if she wasn't. you know)

something by me because it's april 24th and maybe i can set it down, for some of the time

Something about Greenmantle noticing Adam's potential and ambitions and acknowledging them and complimenting him on them, but still underestimating Adam his abilities, the length he is willing to go to protect his friends

I’m obsessed with the way Maggie writes dialogue

I do not know steven in real life
