#(because of declan)

[wexpyke]

still thinking about how declan told ronan “be dangerous” and then declan, a man who has spent his entire life perfecting the bland & boring act, who has always tried to be invisible to stay safe, to protect his family, went into a notoriously dangerous black market and committed mass murder

#i don’t have the words to describe how much i love declan lynch #he did everything because he loved ronan & matthew unconditionally #i’m upset thinking about it #declan lynch #ronan lynch #the raven cycle #the dreamer trilogy #greywaren spoilers #.txt

happy valentine’s day <3

a gentle reminder that ronan dreamt adam a watch that told the time wherever ronan was because it was the closest he could get to a love letter. and that instead of saying “i love you” (too easy, too basic) adam says “tamquam” and ronan says “alter idem” which not only literally means “as if a second self” but also implies that adam was the one to start saying it in the first place.

a gentle reminder that the line “i suppose…she makes me quiet. like henrietta” exists and was spoken by gansey about blue in answer to the question “how do you know you love her?” and that blue would do anything for gansey because he’s the first person she calls when she needs to escape because he. makes. her. quiet. too.

and, finally, a gentle reminder that declan wrote “you were the ending i chose for myself” because he wanted to be happy with jordan, to have a life with her. and a reminder that jordan’s first sweetmetal, the very thing that keeps her awake and alive, is a portrait of declan lynch.

that’s all.

we all deserve to be loved like this.

explaining mór and niall's divorce to a friend like, yeah they got divorced because they had differing opinions on infanticide, no the differing opinion wasn't whether or not to commit infanticide

#the question wasn't 'should we kill a baby?' it was 'can we really do that to declan?' for AT LEAST the first months of ronan's life #yeah niall joins the 'let ronan live bc he's just a baby' camp later #but declan was the only sucker in that camp for a while #like they didn't go with the 'we should kill the eldritch abomination we created with our own hubris' plan #because they didn't want to upset declan who loved ronan #not because baby murder is reprehensible #this is why i feel greywaren doesn't act as a niall redemption thing #bc if your REDEMPTION includes planning baby murder and only treating your son as well as you did because you were afraid of what would #happen if you didn't #i do not think that is redemption #like the new fenian is niall and he fully says 'yeah no we were freaked out about what would happen if /something like that/ felt wronged- #-so we excessively treated him like a part of the family' #i think the book can act as a 'niall explaination' but christ alive not a redemption #niall lynch #mór ó corra #ronan lynch #declan lynch #tdt #greywaren

thing is i know ronan lynch is extremely male presenting. like mstief has made this abundantly clear. he is a guy’s guy through and through, muscle bro, gym tank top, piss in the woods, manly beard type of guy who likes guy things like fast cars and power tools. i get this. i understand it. so you have to understand that when i say he would deeply relate to the lyric i’ve got that good girl faith and a tight little skirt i do mean in a purely spiritual way. like that’s very much not him but also in a real way it IS him. do you see my vision

#the funny thing is i’m not even that big of a swiftie. but apparently i’ve made it my mission in life to make all tswift songs about trc #i think it’s because i read that ‘the boy king and the knight’ trc blog which assigned taylor swift as a boy king back in the day #and i’ve simply never recovered #(this was the same blog that had a whole ‘angels in america’ declan extravaganza. they simply don’t make content like that anymore #trc #ronan lynch #taylor swift #throwback to my 2016 (?) fic that used this song as a title lmaooo

I will always be loyal to Yuya.

#yugioh arc v #ygo arc v #arc v #yuya sakaki #declan akaba #reiji akaba #my art #arc v art #i was pretty ambivalent towards declan until he said this out of nowhere in s3 and i was like ok you're kind of insane in a way i respect #the vibe i've always gotten from declan is that he's actually pretty kind and polite #but he comes off as mean/sinister because he has a flat affect and rbf #and i think that extends to his relationships too. yuya is like ugh declan doesn't care about any of this declan doesn't care about us #while internally declan is like yuya is such a good friend :) i'm glad we're working together #it just doesn't read externally. at all. #he doesn't express himself the same way as other people even if he feels things just as strongly #so when he suddenly confesses his undying loyalty it's out of nowhere but it's also just how he is. do you get it

[adamshallperish]

the biggest trick maggie stiefvater pulls on the reader in the dreamer trilogy is making them think that ronan is this magnificantly tragic cu chulainn/achilles style hero and then declan goes on 1 (one) murderous rampage and we realize it was him all along

#one would think ronan was the cú chulainn figure #this is however yet another of maggie's bamboozling tricks #honestly i kinda dig it i wish we'd gotten more of those clear irish mythology parallels #and maybe tehre were more that i just missed because my knowledge of the old myths is fairly rudimentary #so i'll have to revisit the series once i've read on it more #anyway #the lynch brothers #the brothers lynch #declan lynch #ronan lynch #the raven cycle #trc #the dreamer trildogy #tdt #call down the hawk #cdth #mister impossible #mi #greywaren #greywaren spoilers

I was supposed to be finishing Boots & Bottles. But instead, a vision came to me.

Season 1 Jamie, at a bar with the team, trying to figure out why Colin, Isaac, Declan, and Roy were hiding behind a wall and spying on someone in the dining room bar.

If that doesn’t make sense, ignore it. It’s all a thin plot to get to Jamie offering to seduce the guy. He’s Declan’s sister’s boyfriend, she’s out of town, he’s at a bar, they think he’s trying to cheat on her.

This isn’t a fic. It’s barely a story. Mostly just sentences strung along with a few descriptions to give an idea lmao.

“No one’s ever accused me of being subtle afore.”

-•-

“What are you lot doing hiding behind a wall?”

“Shh, Jamie. We’re watching someone.”

“Watchin em do what?”

“Can it Tartt.”

“Roy? Isn’t it past your bedtime??”

“Shut it, your loud grating voice is gonna make him look over and then Cockburn won’t be able to find out if his sister’s boyfriend is cheating on her.”

He finally quiets and asks Declan if he means his sister Angelica. At his nod, Jamie looks incredulous.

“No way, she’s mad fit man. Why would he step out on her?”

Roy acidly asks why Jamie would step out on Keeley. He didn’t deign to answer to such slander.

“Why d’ya think he’s cheating?” He asked Declan instead.

“Well he’s at this bar while Angie’s out of town. We think he’s trying to pull.”

“Well then why haven’t one of you gone over then?”

“Cause none of us could pass for a woman, Jamie,” Colin snarked.

“Sure but he’s bi so that don’t matter none do it?”

“What?!”

“Shh, Colin. We’re supposed to be being quiet.”

“Jesus, Tartt. You’re the loud one! Also I wanna know how you came to that conclusion?”

“Uh, Roy, his shoes? Duh.”

“Oh, his shoes do look pretty posh.” And Jamie nodded at Colin finally seeing sense.

“And I’ve seen him around Gay.”

“Gay?” Isaac said it, but all four of the players at the table looked confused.

“You know, the bar. G-A-Y?”

“You don’t say the word. The name is G, and A, and Y. You cannot possibly be that dumb, Tartt. You’re just being a prick.”

“Ohh, no. No I thought people were being, like, circumference?”

“What?”

“Saying it but not saying it?”

“Did you mean circumspect?”

“Nah, circumference? Where you say it in a round about way?”

“Roy!” Colin managed to grit out through his teeth. He sounded pained by not being aloud to yell about their rapid fire back and forth. “Not the important part of what he said!”

“Why were you at a gay bar, bruv?” Isaac asked before Roy could take over the whole interrogation.

“You just said you weren’t supposed to say the word!”

“Tartt!”

“Jesus. Sorry. It’s where Keeley likes to go to pull women. She’s bi too.”

“He could be going there without being gay?” Colin asked. Declan was suspiciously quiet on these questions.

“Sure, that’s why I said he’s bi.”

“I meant-”

“Look,” Jamie said, finally showing his impatience. “if none of you wanna do it, I’ll go seduce him.”

“You?”

“Roy, have you seen me hipbones? No one even passably interested in men can resist them.”

“You are such a vain mo-“

“Colin, give us your phone,” Jamie cut Roy off again.

“Why?”

“So you can listen in to get your proof.”

Jamie calls himself, answers before it can ring, and puts Colin’s back in his hand. Then he stands there motionless.

“Well, aren’t you-“

“Waiting for the right time.” And before Roy could yell at him some more, he’s off.

-•-

Walks right beside the man at the bar, puts his hands on the polished wood, and leans up on his tiptoes. It puts his ass right in the man’s sightline and when Jamie turns a bit the man can see Jamie’s ass flex.

“Just me luck. Get here and the barman’s run off.”

“Oh, well, he’s been pretty efficient. Will probably be back soon.”

“Cheers. Mind if I sit?”

“Not at all. Hey. Listen. You look familiar?”

“Oh? You might have seen me on the telly. You a football fan?”

“Not much but I bet that’s it. What team are you on?”

“Man City? The accent didn’t give me away?”

“Dunno. But your accent is beautiful.”

“Oh well, now I know you’re chatting me up. Not many can hear the beauty in a Manc accent.”

“Then a lot of people are fools. You know, I didn’t really think footballers were so…”

“So what? Charming?”

“That too. But I was going to say obvious.”

Jamie’s giggle came clearly through Colin’s speaker. Roy thought Jamie was apparently going for even more air-headed than normal.

“No one’s ever accused me of being subtle afore. I know what I like when I see it so I say it.”

With that, he finally caught the barman’s eye to ask about drinks.

“How comfortable are you with exotic shots, mate? I wanna give me friend here a blowjob.”

Said man spluttered while Colin tried to swallow down a shriek. Roy watched in horror as Jamie leaned closer and whispered to the man.

“You like amaretto? And Irish cream? Those are the secret ingredients. One of my favs. Love blowjobs, I do.”

Jamie hands over one of the two shots and then says “Now we can each have a blow job!” Clinks his shot glass against the other’s, downs it, and then whispers to him again. “Excuse me, do you know where the toilets are? I’ve never been here. Want to show me?”

-•-

As they walked past, Jamie called attention to the other players, though luckily by that point they had rushed to seem like they were just normally sat at a table.

“Hey lads, think I’ll be headed home soon. Oh, and I made a new friend!”

Declan looked up to lock eyes with the man. Who recognized Declan and then slowly realized exactly what that sounded like.

“Hey, Declan, my man! Just showing this guy to the gents. Then heading home. Your sister gets back from her trip tomorrow. Gotta be up early to pick her up!”

“Oh?”

“Yeah. Yeah. Was just having an after work drink when your friend here asked for directions.”

“Right. After work. At 9pm. And you needed to walk him over rather than just point at the neon sign over the door?”

“Yup!”

“I gave him a blowjob earlier!”

“He! That is. A shot!”

“Yeah, I’m giving you a shot. To get with me! You’re lucky, you know. I only hook up with cute boys, don’t I?” Only Colin played along, nodding in answer.

“What. No. This is a misunderstanding. I’m not gay, man.”

“Sure, sure, neither am I. Right boys?” And he wiggled his eyebrows at Roy, Declan, Colin, and Isaac. Slowly turning to each one to make it as painful to watch as possible. Jamie liked Angelica, she was fit like he said but more than that she was really nice. Making her smarmy ex squirm was a treat.

The man fled, missing the smirk that spread across Jamie’s face before he leaned up against the player’s table. Flaunting his ass again just like before.

“If your sister thinks he’s actually just confused, you should tell her that he was showing me the way with his hand on me ass.” He then pulled a condom from his back pocket, and held it out to him. “And see if she recognizes the brand. He slipped it into the back pocket real smooth like.”

Declan snorted, then elbowed his ribs. “Apparently he’s more subtle than you, eh?”

“Bout as subtle as a brick to the face. Thought he was gonna cum in his pants when I said I wanted to give him a blowjob.”

“How did you think of that shot?”

“Told you I’ve been to G-A-Y with Keeley. It’s how the men there check to see if I’m straight. Apparently how you react can tell a lot about yourself.” He didn’t give them a chance to ask more about it though.

“Well, this has been fun, lads. But I’m gonna head out shortly. Just gotta settle up me tab. Oh, and Declan?”

“Yeah?”

“He left without doing that himself. I’m gonna pay it, and tell the barman that he ran off after I rocked his world. Pout a bit about getting me poor heart broke. Ask if I can leave a note for ‘whenever that fit bloke comes back for his abandoned credit card.’

If your sister still doesn’t believe ya, tell her to swing by for it. Cause whoever hands it over to her will be happy to tell her the hot gossip around it.”

“Yeah?”

“Yeah. Like I said. Not known for being subtle, am I?”

“Cheers.”

declan referring to adam as "the person ronan cared about most in the world" is a sentiment that's theoretically sweet and might even be true on a good day but i think it's mainly just the BEST use of dramatic irony in any piece of media ever it is SO FUCKING FUNNY SCREAM . declan out here pacing and clawing at the yellow wallpaper or whatever like "why didn't he call you, his loving boyfriend who he loves so much, something must be REALLY WRONG" adam sitting kubrick stare white knuckle grip in the taco bell drive thru or whatever like "yeahhh haha unfoooooortunately he just accused me of killing him to death and then told me to fuck off and die like the evil sack of backstabbing shit i am. i think.... you might wanna............ try gansey,,"
