Adam Du Mortain

[twc-thoughts-you-didnt-ask-for]

thinking about how I think each member of UB would romanticize and be in awe of the little indent left on their finger (or even better the detective’s finger) from wearing a ring too long that seems to take forever to go back to normal if they were married to the detective and had to take their ring off for some reason

[es--arcana]

So I've been thinking about Adam's route more recently and how he handles things compared to the others.

Nate, Felix & Mason don't/won't say "I love you" until after entering the relationship (keep in mind this is from the perspective of already being in some type of relationship with em at some point up to book 3).

But I think Adam will be the opposite. With how he is I can see him telling the detective he loves them BEFORE the actual relationship starts. How long before? No idea.

Obviously I could be completely wrong but given how long it'll take to reach the relationship (brb gonna cry a minute. 😭) waiting even longer to hear him say the words would be to cruel in my opinion.

Never has a kiss hurt me so good

I cannot do the absolute Agony of this scene from Book 3 justice. The desperation of their kiss. The way they both knew it was a bad idea and that they just…. Needed it regardless. The absolute, earth-shattering terror A feels because, despite everything they’ve done, this human has gotten in past their endless walls and it’s ripping their world apart - because they’ve lost everything before and honestly don’t know how they’re going to survive losing them.

Jesus Fuck I have so many feelings about this. So many and I sobbed and cried and just…. omg you fucked me up Bk 3! Characters belong to @seraphinitegames

[rinriya]

This moment… I feel this book is going to be very dramatic and personal.

── .✦ MASTERLIST ; NAVIGATION.

THE FOREST OUTSIDE OF THE STAINED WINDOW RESTS QUIETLY TONIGHT. Not a single sound rings out in the warehouse. Adam’s eyes stay locked onto the glass. The different colors bleed into each other as his gaze bores into them, a quiet sort of desperation clinging to every edge of the fractured light.

Despite the silence, his mind cannot find rest. Thoughts creep in, insidious, filling every corner of his mind. Thoughts of you. How can one person invade another so completely? You’ve bewitched him, there’s no other explanation. Your infuriating smile, your ridiculous jokes—

We can burn forever (never coming back again, never coming back again)

Before we're gone (never coming back again, never coming back again)

His throat tightens as warmth invades him, uninvited. He hates that he seeks out your voice, your gaze. And yet, he craves it. Craves the way your eyes find his in a crowd, as if you see him, really see him.

“Maybe it’ll grow on you.”

“Like a tumor, you mean?”

He can still hear your voice from that day at the diner, your laughter so close to his. The sun was drenching you in gold, framing you in a halo of light. He can’t tell if it was the sun warming his skin or if it was you.

And in that light, you were something otherworldly, untouchable. A saint, and he—what was he? A sinner. A broken thing gazing up at something far too good for him. You, a creature of unwavering hope, of impossible strength. His chest aches because he can’t reach for you. You pull him closer, but he resists. He can’t—won’t—bring the darkness he carries into your light. He’s terrified that if he does, your brightness will expose everything. It’ll show him for what he truly is—leave him bare, stripped of his defenses.

“This shouldn’t be your life. You deserve…” He swallows, the words catching in his throat. “You deserve more.”

You deserve more than him.

The memory of your skin, bruised and broken, haunts him. The cuts on your arms that he yearns to heal with his hands, with his lips. There’s something delicate in it—a sweetness so fierce it threatens to consume him whole. The feeling is like a vice around his throat, choking him with need. He wants to be closer, to merge with you, because some part of him knows—you would fit perfectly. But it’s a violent kind of love, tangled in pain. Loving you is a barbed wire wrapped tight around his neck; it’s the only thing that keeps him breathing, but it’s also what strangles him. He wishes he could unravel himself in front of you, strip away his defenses, stand naked before your candlelight and not even flinch.

I remember you

You look like forever

But he can’t. He can’t let you see him for what he is. He can’t love you the way he wants to, the way you deserve. His love feels like a curse, like a blade pressed to your skin. It’s poison, something that’ll rot you from the inside out. How can he let you carry that?

You make it impossible for him to turn away, though. You beg him—without words, without sound—just with the way you look at him. He knows you’re asking for something he can’t give. You want to believe this is right. You want him to tell you it’s okay to love him back. But how can he promise that when he’s certain he’ll ruin you? How can he believe that your love will survive after you see what he truly is?

“I don’t think you’re a monster, Adam.”

“Maybe you should.”

Run so fast

Run through the weather

He knows he should hate the way you look at him. The way your face lights up when you see him. It makes him feel—just for a moment—like he’s something worth looking at, like he’s someone’s hope, someone’s person. It makes him feel wanted. But he doesn’t deserve that.

A hundred days, you're my man

Of bright light, away, away, hey!

His body betrays him. He wants to run to you, to close the distance between you both, because you—you are his hope. You’re his home, the altar he kneels at. You make him want things he’s long denied himself. You make him believe it’s possible to crave something good, something pure. He can feel his walls collapsing, his defenses crumbling to dust as he reaches for you. You promise you won’t burn him, but can he trust it? Can he trust you with what’s left of him?

I want a hundred days

Of bright light, hey, hey, away!

His eyes remain locked on your figure through the stained glass. The sunlight pours over you like it did that day, and it feels almost as if he could touch it, touch you. His fingers graze the glass, the warmth bleeding through. So close, but never close enough. He presses harder, desperate to feel you, to reach you.

Away, away, hey!

Away, away, hey!

The sun’s warmth is on his fingertips, but he knows it’ll never be enough.

We already know book 4 is not going to be it for us.🤡 and sera said that this new 3rd person that we can get with and make A jealous is going to be in book 5 so we either get with A by the end of book 5 or maybe book 6? 🤷‍♀️ in either case, it looks like the show must go on fellow clowns, get your make up, big shoes and red nose and let's keep the circus going 🤹‍♂️🎪

[crownleys]

What you shouldn't forget, Tobias, Adam will say a millennia later, across the deck of the small boat they've weighed anchor just outside of Wayhaven, in view of the harbour; is that we are not human. I know that, Tobias says. And he might believe that he does. Tobias is not ignorant to violence, or the capacity to inflict it. He’s seen war, patched lives back together in the thick of mud and blood. He has seen Adam fight — but it is only how Adam has trained himself to act, and to be seen. The world is as savage as it has always been. It only takes more care to mask it, now. The twilight gathers like a fog, reducing the deck to silhouettes. The trunk of the mast, the swell of the cabin. Tobias, stood by the deck rail and turned towards him, away from the sea, the sea spraying against his back and tossing his hair into his eyes. The echo of another man, a life ago, with eyes like his and a smile like his and as trusting as he had been, as reckless, to place his life into Adam’s hands. No, Adam says, and his throat feels bruised. I don't think you do.

UB after meeting the most unhinged and in danger human they could get their hands on

[toad-games]

Fuck it, here are some Jellycat plushies I would buy for Unit Bravo

Felix/Farah

F would honestly be delighted by any and all plushies imo, and so it was hard to pick just a few. But these ones were bright and colorful and unexpected (except the unicorn) and I think they would love them.

Nate/Nat

The blueberry one because it’s, so cute, and I apparently won’t forget the bakery scene with the crossword ever.

Mason/Morgan

Sunshine, obviously. And also they can be a little crabby (har har) they would probably appreciate that one much less.

Adam/Ava

A lil plant that they can’t break! And they’re a little prickly, but we love them anyway.

[es--arcana]

I will stand by the fact that making a pun as he's bleeding out is one of Luca's most in character moments ever. Bonus points for the incredulous reaction from Adam. 🤣👌

Other standout moments that reflect on his character include.

Flipping ex Bobby the bird in book 2.

Unsafe driving to the carnival because Adam irritated him.

Brain short circuiting whenever Adam does strong man things. 😳

The dog treats joke.

Tripping Adam looney tunes style during combat training in book 3.

Making the stellar decision to tell Adam "to late" and kissing him.

Slurping breakfast in book 3.

Morbid curiosity to his bounty.

Any moment where he gets to throw hands with trappers. 🤣
