hi i love you and this was fun but also. REALLY HARD. and there’s definitely more than 5 my bad.
1. ‘adam lived in an apartment located above the office of st. agnes catholic church, a fortuitous combination that focused most of the objects of ronan’s worship into one downtown block’ is gay poetry. Peak Gay. every time i think about this line i have to lie down.
2. ronan telling adam ‘maybe i dreamt you’…. what. the. fuck. ive honestly never heard anything so romantic in all my life.
3. after ronan kisses adam for the first time and then goes up to the roof to put his arms in the air and think about how he’d caught happiness…. s o f t.
4. that time ronan spends all day thinking about how much he hates school but then he catches a glimpse of adam’s wrist and later is flirted with for 0.2 seconds and is like oh wow i love school.
5. tbh every time he had an existential crisis about adam’s hands. the time he touched adam’s hand and the ocean burned. the time he stroked adam’s hands under the pretence of making sure they were fine after the weird demon thing. when he made out with adam for 5 minutes tops before he had to put his fingers to his mouth.
6. when ronan doesn’t wanna speak to declan so he decides to pretend to be asleep but for some reason thinks the way to do this is drape himself all over adam i just…. why, ronan, why?
7. dreaming adam up gifts that he couldn’t possibly give him in person so he has to find a way to leave them somewhere for him to find is like…. the epitome of being Gay.
8. after ronan crashes the shopping cart with adam he is profoundly happy…. which is also soft as hell.
anyways i couldnt narrow this down and 6, 7, 8 aren’t in order because they kept swapping around in my head but the point is. i love ronan lynch. an absolute disaster and not always the Smoothest but he got the boy!!
That one moment in TDT where Ronan pretends to be asleep to avoid Declan and tosses his leg over Adam’s lap just has so many layers to it. On the one hand Ronan is still stressed and repressed to a point where if he even breathes in the direction of his Gay Feelings™ he wants to light something on fire, but at the same time he sees Declan approaching and goes “aw shit I don’t want to talk to my annoying liar brother who nags me, but I also really want to irritate him…. oh I know I’ll nonchalantly sprawl all over Adam in a manner that implies a degree of physical familiarity I never exhibit with anyone, he’ll hate that implication for sure.” Plus the fact that Ronan is probably subconsciously looking for a reason to be in contact with an attractive boy despite how much he avoids the concept of being gay! It’s like a stylized matryoshka layer cake of gay repression and familial drama that’s eating its own tale and it’s just fascinating to watch unfold.
