i think it would mostly follow the books but slightly darker (just how i personally picture it, probably m-rated for gore and language?) like a more horror/suspense vibe with not a lot of romantic tension/content at all, at least not in the first season

i think more pov scenes of different characters would be necessary, for example, a kind of foreshadowing scene with ronan waking up with something clutched in his hand? or a scene with noah where he’s flickering just slightly and you might not even be able tell and think it’s just an editing error or your eyes acting up? possibly?

lots of creepy neeve/scrying scenes. heavy on the horror aspect of the psychic activity

i also picture cabeswater being really inviting and beautiful at first but as time goes on it becomes more terrifying and the mood more unsettling, working up to when it disappears for a bit in the second season

the climax would definitely be adam’s sacrifice and it would all be very scary and worrying

think following the book with a more “southern gothic ecological horror” vibe basically

also i’m sorry but gansey is not allowed to dress like he does. there absolutely have to be some style alterations. give aesthetic tumblr the edgy hipster version of gansey they desperately want

he would ruin the whole vibe, picture it
