“There’s A Growing List Of Things We’ve Known And Forgotten, Things They’ve Pushed Us To Forget.

alright alright alright. i want to get into the soldier, poet, king discourse because my controversial opinion is that gansey is not, in fact, the king But the poet. and adam is the king. and obviously ronan is, and forever will be, the soldier.

being the king, at its core, is about being driven by duty rather than desire. the king is practical sometimes to their own detriment. adam parrish is the king. adam is driven by duty — sometimes duty to others but also duty to himself to become someone he’s proud of — and he often ignores his true wants in favor of the practical, “right” choices. think of mr gray saying “adam parrish and his band of merry men” and maura responding that she would have said it was gansey’s band. but it’s actually adam who keeps the gangsey in line. it’s adam who can get gansey inspired to continue his quest by coming up with possible solutions out of thin air, it’s adam who keeps a watchful eye out for anyone who might be out to get them, and adam who makes the ultimate sacrifice to cabeswater to further the quest. adam would probably prefer to be the poet, but he sees the impracticality of it and chooses to accumulate success that is easily measured instead.

gansey is the poet through and through. he is the orpheus of the gangsey. he’s the one spinning the delightful tale of glendower and the hunt. by saying “what do you know about dead welsh kings?” he is inviting anyone who will listen into this story, this magic that he’s created/found. he is not always practical but he’s so charming that it doesn’t matter. he lives in a world of whimsy where things just want to be found and where he believes and leads other people to believe too. the real gansey is the poet not the king.

ronan is just. so. obviously. the soldier. the soldier is impractical but not in the same way as the poet — the soldier is reckless and does not think of the consequences before acting. ronan is fiercely protective of those he cares about and does not usually think before doing just about anything. he is angry angry angry. soldiers do what they want and are leaders in their own way, but they often lead with anger and feel as though their anger is a rebellion. ronan is the right hand man, the one who has to be held back but is ultimately the secret weapon. (be dangerous).

i will also say that the solider defends the king and the poet inspires the king and the king keeps everyone on track. ronan defends and would defend adam to the grave (“the choice was death or hurting adam, which wasn't much of a choice at all”), gansey does literally anything just to make adam believe or even just smile, and adam, as we’ve established, is the sensible one that is steering them all to success.

I can't believe the eras tour is over. I really want to thank everyone for listening to the audios I made for this tour, I never imagined so many people would care about my little passion project to collect all the live versions of the surprise songs. This has been an amazing journey to go on with all of you <3 <3 <3

I want more people to know that while the Palestine Olympic team consists of only 8 athletes, at least 69 Palestinian Olympic athletes have been killed since October 2023. This includes athletes who were going to compete in these games and retired athletes such as Majed Abu Maraheel, the first Palestinian Olympian, who died of kidney failure in a refugee camp product of lack of medical treatment.

Remember them during these games.

3 minutes and 13 seconds of absolute nonsense. Don't take any of it seriously. We are all here for some good fun and giggles.

I did not think this (not so) little video would take me on such a ridiculous journey. I also never intended for it to be so norstappen focused either. But here we are!

Sourcing the clips for this took so long. I was determined to try and make every line make sense in some context. But of course this is impossible. I really tried though.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this crazy little project (and for anyone watching it now)! It is so appreciated (but next time please tell me to go touch grass instead). <3

Special thanks to @wisteriagoesvroom for talking me off the ledge of abandoning this whole thing, and to @rigmarole-07 for being my test subject and giving me great advice. <3

This is dedicated to the anons who were waiting on this! I hope you see this, anons, and that you like it. Your messages made me so happy, thank you. <3

Lots of my favorite vines are old ones, so here are some that I didn’t want lost to the wind
