friendly reminder that richard campbell gansey iii is a teenager who is suffering the aftereffects of an extremely traumatic event (read: his actual death and resurrection), but he doesn’t think he has the right to lean on his best friends for emotional support because his family has a lot of money and so he’s “had it the easiest”

#you will never catch me saying that gansey isn’t flawed#and one of those flaws is definitely his privilege-born classism#but god i’ve never seen a character so aware of his own privilege that it becomes his tragedy#gansey is so desperate to be seen as a person and not a trust fund#and he does that by trying his best to be there for his friends in any way they need him#but he doesn’t ask them to be there for him because he really genuinely believes that they shouldn’t have to#because he’s had it the easiest#i will protect richard campbell gansey iii until my dying day (via helensgansey)
