    Summary

    Ronan knew he had to ask for help after the sixth time he woke up and nearly died again. He had lost total control over dreaming.

    Adam hadn’t spoken to Ronan in almost a year. The breakup had not been amicable or mutual. Ronan did not understand and wouldn't hear him out, and Adam had run out of patience. It had been messy. They hadn’t had any contact since. Their mutual friends never said his name around Adam. He assumed it was the same on Ronan’s end. They all had an unspoken agreement of avoidance and pretending none of that ever happened.

    Adam returns to the Barns to help with a Dream Problem. It hurts more than he expected.

    Summary

    If Adam was a rock, November was a stream: chilly, relentless, eroding him with gentle beauty that didn’t make it to his heart. The weather threatened to expose him for what he truly was; every shiver betrayed him. You’re not from here, his body whispered. You don’t fit here. You can’t last here.

    Because neither could Ronan.

    Adam asks Ronan to be home for winter break. Ronan isn’t. So Adam spends the holidays without him.

    Summary

    When Adam Parrish buys a Christmas tree from a local farm for the holidays, he meets the surly, mean-looking farmer, Ronan Lynch and their lives become quickly intertwined.

    But then winter intervenes, and Adam realises that he has let himself get way in over his head. Feelings that arrived too soon threaten to leave abruptly, before waiting, quietly, for the courage to come back.

    or, doctor Adam Parrish x florist Ronan Lynch au at Christmastime.

    Summary

    “Beige isn’t your color,” Adam said when the guards walked Ronan into the room.

    “Rude of them to not have Irish complexions in mind when they picked the prison uniforms. Why are you here, Parrish?”

    “Kavinsky,” Adam said.

    Ronan sighed. “I don’t know where he is.”

    “I want you to help me find him.”

    Summary

    "I'll lose my mind if you don't let me help you," Gansey whispers. Adam doesn't respond, out of either acquiescence or apathy, even Adam doesn't know right now, and he feels Gansey stand up in front of him.
    Gansey tilts Adam’s head up, a finger curled under his chin, and Adam lets his eyes fall open a sliver. The light is cold and dim, so it doesn't hurt his head too much worse. He blinks and Gansey comes into shaky focus, leaning down over him, eyes squinted in worry. "Follow my finger," he says calmly, putting his pointer in Adam's eyeline.
    "I'm not doing that." Adam jerks his chin away from Gansey's hand. "I just need a bandaid."
    "…At least some water," Gansey bargains.
    ~
    Adam hits his head on his way home and takes a detour to Monmouth. Gansey tries his best to take care of him.

    Summary

    It was a want: not a need, as negotiable as any other. Ronan was a want. Enemy: Ambition. Price you paid in allowing oneself to redefine as knowable. That value had ticked up: from one, one, one. Added: became two. Function stretch. Variables became complex. Unaccounted for. One became two. 

    End it. Now.

    Today.

    You need to.

    Summary

    "It was the strangest thing, Lynch. Or, I suppose it really isn’t, considering, but quite strange all the same — the forest is full of your dream food.”

    Ronan went visibly white, then pink, red, purple, with worrying speed. “Uh — yeah?”

    “Yes,” said Gansey, sitting up a bit straighter. He plucked his polo away from his chest and sipped at his water. “I’d know it anywhere. The mashed potates growing on trees, and the double cheeseburger pizza, and the butter ice cream.”

    Adam shot a look at Ronan, who was now an unnatural shade of puce.

    “Cibus pinguescens,” sang Opal softly. Ronan swatted at her hands, but it didn’t stop her from singsonging it again, louder.

    Summary

    Adam has begun dreaming of Ronan. She can't tell if it's Cabeswater's influence or just the product of a restless mind, but the dreams are getting more vivid, and it's been harder and harder to resist temptation.

    Whatever danger was causing these new anomalies in the woods was a preferable thought sequence than the one in which she remembered Ronan dragging her lips across her neck, Ronan whispering breathlessly in her ear, Ronan gripping her hair.
    She practically bolted out of the Camaro when they pulled into the Monmouth lot. 8 hours in the warehouse was preferable to another ten minutes in that car.
    Still, she thought about Ronan’s arms for almost the entire time.

    Summary

    The sudden silence pressed in, too quiet to drown out the thrashing of Adam’s heart. He could feel it in his deaf ear. Had to remember: this wasn’t a stage, it was a classroom. He was in his element here, among all of these pampered students far more privileged and far less prepared than him. He was here for a reason. He was here to show them all how it was done.

    Adam dropped to his knees.

    Summary

    At first, Adam had pretended not to notice that the hearing in his right ear was worsening. Between shifts, college applications and senior year school work, his mind was so occupied and his body was so exhausted that he didn’t have time to do anything about it even if he’d wanted to. He hoped it’d improve by itself, or at least stop worsening.

    After the events of TRC, Adam starts to lose the hearing in his other ear. In true Adam Parrish fashion, he isn’t normal about it.

    Summary

    Ronan is insatiable, which isn't to say Adam isn't the same, but it's different for him. He wants Ronan all over him until his hands are there, then he doesn't want to be touched because he's reminded of how different they are. Adam wants to be able to want sex without all the complicated feelings attached, but they won't just go away.
    Adam pushes Ronan onto the bed and goes for his neck, ravenous with the need to touch, lick, bite. Ronan moans at the teeth marks Adam leaves on his shoulder.
    He tries to reach up to squeeze Adam's hips, but Adam pins his hands by his sides. He tries to sit up to meet Adam in the middle and kiss down his neck, but Adam rears back. "Don't wanna be touched today?" Ronan asks, not necessarily gently, but without any sort of judgement.
    ~
    Adam wants to do something, but his ever-spinning brain and dysphoria won't let him. Ronan gets him to relax.

    Summary

    He was born in the harshest conditions. Like a cactus in a desert. Who knew it could rain this much all at once?

    OR

    Adam waits for Ronan after not seeing each other for a while. He ends up face to face with someone else instead.

    ~

    He stood like a cactus in a desolate desert. He was once drained of all love, care, and happiness and then he was suddenly soaked in all of it; he felt he could store it beyond the warmth of a hundred suns. He wouldn’t thirst for water for another century, he thought, as long as he knew that he would be showered with love yet again when he waited. So, he waited. He waited for Ronan. He missed Ronan as if he were a missing limb. And God did it hurt. Standing in front of his school, waiting like a cactus ready to soak up the rain.

    But a cactus is made by the harshest conditions, and the thorns it sprouts are a sign of that. That’s why he felt himself shrivel up at the sight of his father. The man who made him thirst for love and hid it from him all the same.

    Summary

    Still, he knows what they say about him. Scholarship boy. Gansey’s project. Poor kid with grease under his nails, a hallucination, Pinocchio on strings, an actor walking the stage as if it belongs to him.

    And maybe it does, in a way. He walks it like it belongs to him because people around him assume it does. At what point does a lie, lived long enough, become truth? Gansey looks to him for surety. Ronan looks at him like he’s something worthy. Aglionby carves his name into its rosters, tucking him into the walls of people who once mattered.

    What’s the difference?

    ----
    Adam loves Ronan. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them in my very flouncy writing. Lots of storm metaphors.

    Summary

    Adam didn’t know how to feel on the way back to the Barns, to Ronan, to his home. Adam tried not to think about love, and so it crossed his mind nearly once a day.

    Did he love Ronan?

    Adam wanted Ronan; Adam knew Ronan. These he knew to be fact. It was easy to find evidence of his desire for Ronan, his knowledge of Ronan. Adam didn't need to look farther than the memories of this morning to see that he wanted him. More than the physical, Adam wanted his time, his attention, for Ronan to never look away. He wanted Ronan so badly that the thought of Harvard and its eight hour distance was more torturous than desirable. That was what it meant to want Ronan Lynch.

    He knew Ronan too. He knew the shape of Ronan's smile and the feel of his lips against his. He knew when Ronan needed an open road and a night sky. He knew to find Ronan in his parents' room when it was three AM, to remain quiet as he wiped away his tears. He knew Ronan's anger, his loud self destructive violence and his quiet grief. And he knew, deep in his bones where vines used to live, that Ronan loved him.

    But did he love Ronan? How could he? When he couldn't even point to the proof.
