Похитители грез

Sometimes Ronan thought Adam was so used to the right way being painful that he doubted any path that didn’t come with agony.

Only death couldn`t be swiped away by a credit card.

What do you want, Adam?
To feel awake when my eyes are open.

It was nothing, but it was Adam Parrish's nothing. How he hated and loved it. How proud he was of it, how wretched it was

You wanted something to get you through your exams, he had it.
You wanted a fake license, he could get it.
You wanted something to hurt you, he was it.

about J. Kavinsky

“What's that?"
"Jane!" Gansey said joyfully.
Adam said, "It's a wizard in a box."
"It will do your homework," Noah added.
"And it's been dating your girlfriend," Ronan finished.
Blue scowled. "Are you all drunk?”

Unlike some people, my sense of self-worth isn`t tied into my occupation.

Blue

“So sleep.”

Gansey gave him a look. It was a look that asked how Ronan, of all people, could be so stupid to think that sleep was just a thing that could be so easily acquired.

Ronan said, “So let’s drive to the Barns.”

Gansey gave him another look. It was a look that asked how Ronan, of all people, could be so stupid as to think that Gansey would agree to something so illegal on so little sleep.

"...am I in your dreams?"
"Oh, yes, baby." It amused Ronan to say this a lot. He laughed enough that Chainsaw abondoned her paper shredding to verify that he wasn`t dying.

Gansey and Ronan

Neither could really help the other to find sleep. But sometimes it was better just to know you weren`t the only one awake.

Creature was a good word for him, Ronan thought.
What the hell am I?

No isn`t the same as not yet.

There was nothing about Kavinsky that wasn`t despicable.

"Dream me a solution."
"Don`t have to. Nature already gave you a spine."

Gansey and Ronan

Ronan, a sinner himself, wasn`t as struck by the transgression as he was by Gansey`s insistence that they continue to pretend Adam was a saint.

Ronan shifted restlessly. The successful demonstration of the plane had left him hyper-alive. He felt like burning something to the ground.

...chewed on the leather bands on his wrists. They tasted like gasoline, a flavor that struck Ronan as both sexy and summery.

In that moment Blue was a little in love with all of them. Their magic. Their quest. Their awfulness and strangeness. Her Raven boys.

Gansey had been excited; he was the sort of boy who didn`t necessarily belive everything, but he wanted to. But Adam who had only gotten this far in life by questioning every truth presented to him, had wanted proof.
