do it scared. do it vaguely uncomfortable. do it mysteriously damp

i love the declan and gansey dynamic because i think declan (#1 Most Repressed Guy In The World and proud of the work he’s done to earn the title, thank you!!) is alternately repelled by and ravenously jealous of what he sees as gansey’s authenticity (monmouth manufacturing. bright orange car. upfront about the welsh king weirdness. quirky but charismatic. ronan likes him. etc.) coupled with his ability to easily fit in at aglionby through the privilege of his wealth and upbringing. so he brings his girlfriend to meet gansey and see his living space as the precursor to their date (“hey ashley #3 meet my loser brother’s best friend. he has weird and intense passions and interests. he stands in contrast to me haha right, because i’m not like that at all, haha right. i want you to meet him so you can understand something about me i can never express to you and he’s acting as an externalized part of me right now. don’t you think we look like lobster?”) meanwhile gansey is unaware of this because he’s busy operating on levels of repression declan can barely imagine.

i get that he’s pretty but he’s also fucked up. You have to draw him a little fucked up. it’s his god given right to be like this

what if I wasn’t tired all the time imagine the possibilities

what's your "if I won the lottery I wouldn't tell anyone but there would be signs" thing? mine is getting a fully green kitchen
