#declan lynch headcanon

[lizpaige]

merry christmas to yall who celebrate! i think matthew demanded a holiday truce between declan and ronan so every holiday they can’t fight so they just toss out extreme passive aggressive comments that go over matty’s head and at midnight they start boxing.

[speciouspessimism]

when ronan misses declan he dreams and wakes up with hundreds of bottles of pepto-bismol.

[the-raven-babes]

The Dreamer Trilogy should have been about Declan!

He was the only one with a truly compelling story arc that ended satisfyingly.

Ronan not being human was a lame rug-pull that had zero consequences on on his story or even the world.

And speaking of zero consequences! All of that ecoterrorism was for nothing! And he didn’t even get punished for it!

Everyone else was super interesting (Henessey, Liliana, Carmen, Jordan, Matthew, Adam) but there wasn’t enough time for any of them to have satisfying storylines, so Maggie just cut them all short.

Ultimately, Maggie should have realized sooner that this was a series about Declan and focused on that. I think she got lost in the weeds trying to make Ronan a metaphor for her illness and disabilities and in the process lost the story part.

[yathmcclane]

more on this one

Adam asked Ronan one thing only, the kids must go to Aglionby, if after graduating they decide to not go to college and stay working at the barn or doing whatever they want he will be okay with that.

but not matter how much the kids look like Ronan they are also Adams kids so they have a knack for studying and being competitive at it.

but they are still kids so when they were younger when they didn't want to do homework they would just say their dad never graduated and he did fine so why should they learn about multiplication?

Ronan realizing he was setting a bad example so he goes back to school to get his Ged, now every afternoon he sit in the kitchen table with his kids as they do homework together while adam helps them (and ronan)

during highschool at Aglionby unlike what adam and Ronan thought. the kids do well in school, they do so they could get into a good university. also they also like that they are in the same school their parents met and fell in love and the same school they met uncle gansy

they want to make adam proud by getting into a good college without the help of their family influence or money

even though now with ronans money plus Adams job they have more than enough to pay for a good college/university and not have to work after for a life.

during oldest first day the old teachers immediately saw the family resemblance, when asked with a shaky voice if out of curiosity his father was also a student, that went there the boys happily with a dangerous smiles like Ronan's answer proudly that yes, both their parents went to Aglionby, curious the teacher ask both? and the boy confirms that adam is his other dad, making the teacher leave a breath of relief that they may look like ronan but maybe they are as studios as Adam

-

Gansey is the godfather of the middle boy, being Declan the godfather of the first and Mathew of the last.

but Gansey being Gansey the kid has some English old name that only an old man could have. while gansey was really proud of choosing a good name with a deep meaning everyone just calls the kid by a nickname, everyone except gansey (the Older boy would be named niall and ganseys kid named noah)

-

the Lynch clan has a reputation in Henrietta. they went from almost being wipe out to doubling in size, specially every summer when all the kids reunited at the barns.

they are everywhere in Henrietta during summer.

they can be found at Nino's or a 300 way fox, spending time with the grandmas psychics, Ronans boys being the kids of their father love Messing ith granny calla (a name that started with ronan wanting to annoying the woman but stuck with the kids)

they can be found at Nino's or on the streets racing, or exploring the forest.

-

maybe is because they are the daughter of a dream and their grandfather was a dreamer but when the girls are together they could see... things, they love spending time with their uncle adam, the only person in the family who could understand that side. he teaches them how to read cards, during summer they could be found on the kitchen table doing readings to themselves and laughing at things only them could see.

the gift comes into play when painting, much like their mother and aunt they got a talent for it, sometimes their drawings would be scenes of the future.

it started with finger paintings that became too accurate, a drawing of the family together the day Ronan and Adam visited them as a surprise with the boys, a drawing of declan with a blue stain on his shirt, next week a blue pen exploded while Declan was working. small things like that, it becomes more accurate when they are in the Henrietta.

unlike the boys in the lynch family the girl can't go to Aglionby, so they sent them to some fancy rich private all girls school in the mountains, the best of the best, (like to think they also have their own adventure, an academy with secrets, like a psychic headmistress. weird energy in the school forest, and a mystery, like to think at some point they ask uncle adam for help, being the more knowledgeable on energy and how to strengthen or weaken it.

-

Adam and Ronan's kid love working in the barns, the inherent their fathers love for it, but they also love dreaming.

dealing with 3 kids that could pull anything out of their dream was a challenge. when the boys were kids scary movies were ban in the house, what if one of the kids pulled a monster from the nightmares?.

so no scary movies for the lynch boys.

they had to deal with a lot of weird toys, animals, from a multicolor cow to a unicorn, to toys that would to the impossible like a lava lamp with fireworks inside or a snorkel that would let you breath under water.

sometimes while his boys dreamt Ronan would follow them inside, Adam with now years of experience could follow ronan and his boys to the dream space, where they would spend time as a family seeing the things the kids would come up with and telling them what they could bring and what not.

and there would always be their forever young older sister opal, who seems to never grow.

Mathews kids had a hard time coming to the truth of their bird but with Mathews help they manage, like Mathew was dreamt to be Love all the kids were created with a similar thought,

the oldest a boy, bought by a rich couple from a dreamer, dreamed to be the perfect kid, perfect score in school, sociable, the perfect trophy kid,

then the girl, dreamt by a grieving couple who lost their daughter, dream with the though of her on mind, a little kind playful girl who always brings joy to any room she enters, maybe too much joy,

the last one another boy, same age as the girl, dreamed by a lonely old dreamer who just wanted a family, but because of his ability lived in seclusion alone. you could say the boy trait is just to be family, people feel familiar with him.

when Mathew found them he asked his family for help, Hennssey and jordan helping making sweetmetals, adam helping strengthen it (if adam can make energy lines stronger and ley lines are energy, couldn't he do the same with sweetmetals? he did it before with the mural, like he always positions rock draw sigils etc and everything but a pendant with a mini painting and in the back adam carve some symbols in the metal making it stronger) Declan managing the legal part and ronan dreaming then kids toys and stuff, (maybe he can also dream sweetmetals now who knows).

The boys went to Aglionby with Ronan and adams boys and gansey kids, the oldest same age as the oldest boy and the second same age as the youngest, and gansey and blue's kid.

while the girl went to the same school as the triplets.

-

Gansey babysitting the boys always ends in disaster, gansey idea of babysitting while he goes with the best heart thinking he could teach the kids some welsh kings facts it was more like a history lesson. being trouble makers they would mess with Gansey more often than not, once Ronan and Adam found Gansey tied to a chair while the boys were running around him screaming and laugh.

[lookserratic]

Declan Lynch, the oldest of the Lynch brothers, was never alone. He was never with his brothers, but he was never alone. He was a perpetual-motion machine run by the energy of others: here leaning over a friend’s table at a pizza joint, here drawn into an alcove with a girl’s palm to his mouth, here laughing over the hood of an older man’s Mercedes. The congregation was so natural that it was impossible to tell if Declan was the magnet attracting or the filings attracted. (The Dream Thieves ch 2)

Declan is canon bi as far as I’m concerned.

I think if we ever got bi declan real it would have been done in like a one paragraph anecdote in his internal monologue about the most boring gay experience in the world and never brought up again. like at some point he would've been like 'once declan had slept with a senator's son, a man with the false american charm and loud presence of one used to getting what they wanted, for the political advantage. he had left promptly the next morning as if merely returning from a meeting, and had spent almost a whole hour staring at guido reni's st sebastian which he had stolen from the dulwich gallery without anyone noticing. the twisting, erotic form of the man seemed untouchably alien to anything declan could reach. what declan had felt the night before was merely a polite transaction - nothing like the passion this saint achieved just by dying' and it would leave us still kinda uncertain as whether or not that means he's actually into men or not

[adamprrishcycle]

Okay, brown-eyed Adam Parrish anon here, I have another take.

Despite Declan literally being born in Ireland, I think he heavily suppressed any accent he had once he'd started his mission of blending in on purpose (DECLADAM YOU WILL NEVER ESCAPE FROM YOUR PARALLELS).

Inversely, I think Ronan—not only a copy of his father, but a worshipper of his father—would heavily exaggerate any sort of accent he'd acquire growing up isolated at the Barns with Niall and Aurora prior to assimilating at school. If not to be like his father, then for the attention, certainly.

To summarize, in the same way Adam has brown eyes, the Lynches have accents. I dare anyone to take this from me.

Oh only the greatest lynch headcanon of all time

[seaemberthesecond]

declan csa parallels haven't left me since I made the connection

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to talk about this, because honestly same.

This is one of those things that I won't even say is a headcanon because it's not. It's a reading of the text, plain and simple. The evidence is all there.

Violation of autonomy, familial harm, and secrets are all big themes in tdt. The central problematic of the Lynch family is that the secrets in the underbelly tear them apart and prevent the brothers from connecting to each other in real and meaningful ways. They're deliberately denied the language and vocabulary to articulate their experiences out of fear of the family's secrets being exposed, leaving them unable to communicate with each other.

And in the middle of all of this, we have Declan.

Declan who, unbeknownst to his brothers, is experiencing a radically different childhood riddled with danger and violence and is forced to keep it a secret by his parents for the 'good of the family.' Declan who resents Ronan and Matthew for getting the idyllic childhood he's been deprived of, thus creating rifts in their relationship. Rifts that are further exacerbated because of the secrets he's forced to keep – he can't talk to them about what's actually happening in his life, he can't share anything real with them, so he constructs a fake persona to hide behind, even at home. But his brothers pick up on his artifice and withdraw from him, leaving him even more isolated.

This is…such a painfully obvious allegory for sexual abuse that I'm kind of dumbfounded by the fact that more people don't talk about it.

Both Ronan and Matthew recognize that Declan is treated differently by their parents, but they deliberately don't examine this too deeply because doing so would require that they acknowledge that something sinister lurked in the margins of their childhood and that's just not something they want to face. Declan's grief isn't as clear-cut as Ronan and Matthew's, because he's grappling with the very real harm his parents did to him, but he's demonized for his "sceptical and imperfect love" for Niall and Aurora. His attempts at getting Ronan to see that their parents weren't who he thought they were are met with hostility and scorn (and in Matthew's case, hesitant incredulity). Because again, Ronan doesn't want to hear it. He's actively standing there with his hands over his ears chanting lalalalalala. I mean in CDTH, we can see how very discomfited he gets when faced with Declan at the fairy market because it forces him to re-evaluate his own childhood in light of all this new information about his brother's secret life that was taking place right under his nose. And he does not want to do that.

I mean does that not drive you insane?? The subtext is THERE. Everything about how the Lynch Brothers' dynamic is set up allows for the reading that Declan has suffered some kind of sexual abuse at the hands of one/both of their parents.

And this is purely at a thematic level. It gets crazier when you consider Declan displays many of the characteristics and behaviours of sexual assault survivors.

"It wasn’t that he hadn’t gone on dates or hooked up, that unlovely euphemism for what was sometimes a perfectly nice time. It was that he didn’t get too close. Intimacy was allowed as long as it revealed nothing truthful." (ch 69, cdth)

His issues with intimacy

His 'hypersexuality'

“So he’s a man-whore. It’s not your problem,” Gansey said. (ch 4, trb)

His troubled relationship with physical touch

(He never initiates anything physical with Jordan, it's always her making the first move; his discomfort with Aurora's hug in the Dauntless Declan scene; his discomfort with Feniall's hug in CDTH; he avoids touching his brothers even and is surprised whenever Matthew reaches out to him.)

His disassociation from his own emotions

Declan Lynch had a complicated relationship with his family. It wasn’t that he hated them. Hate was such a slick, neat, simple emotion. Declan envied people who felt proper hate. (ch 10, MI)

So even if you choose to believe Declan wasn't assaulted by Niall or Aurora, there is still enough evidence in the text itself to suggest he's suffered from some kind of sexual violence during his childhood. Fairy Markets aren't exactly child-friendly places (the woman getting strangled in one of the rooms in CDTH anyone?) and it's not really a stretch to assume Declan had to put up with some fucky shit as a uhh* checks notes* 10-year-old in the uhhhh *checks notes again* black market for the rich and powerful.

And then there's the declan-adam-hennessy and the declan-adam-mor triangles which exist independent of whether you consider Declan a victim of sexual violence but certainly get reinforced if you subscribe to it. But I won't get into that.

All this to say, CSA survivor Declan you will always be real to me.

[cabeswaterdrowned]

hello since I feel like u have some good takes on trc lore/can be a bit crazy w it

thoughts on my personal headcanon that Declan killed Niall?

I don’t think HE did it but organised it. Obviously Declan was a part of Nialls criminal world and probably knew more than Niall thought he did for a teenager, but my thought is that he knew Niall already had a hit out of him from the grey man and made it so that Niall didn’t think the grey man was going to kill him when he drove up to the Barns. Personally, I just feel like it’s unlikely that Niall would’ve let the grey man kill him that easily (I.e, tire iron and not a gun). Declan already knew about Niall potentially wanting to use Ronan for the greywaren etc and as we saw in TD3 he has been secretly very protective and loving over ronan plus very much hated his dad/niall def traumatised him and thus leading to him wanting to kill him to stop more harm coming to Ronan. I feel like if I read td3 more than once I could maybe back up some with Declan’s thoughts on his dad but overall I feel like his immense hatred and then regret signals that maybe he had something to do with his death, plus his need to take care of ronan and Matthew afterwards.

idk maybe this isn’t backed up very well with the trc/td3 lore but just thought it was an interesting thought

Oh I definitely think that’s an interesting idea and could see some canon basis. I feel like I would believe Declan on some level had suspicions about the plot to kill his dad and kind of .. did not take the steps he could have to make sure it didn’t happen, and then blocked that pre knowledge out, more than I would necessarily believe he organized the whole thing. Either way I do think the fact the Lynch brothers memories were canonically altered leaves room for playing around with what actually happened there, the unreliability of Niall’s story and their memories from a time when they were traumatized combined with literal magic at play. You could take that in a lot of directions creatively for sure and poke holes in how much we actually know about the backstory. I also read an interesting post meta-ing on the possibility of Declan being sexually abused by Niall, and while it’s not a headcanon / reading I like feel so strongly about I want to adopt as my canon, I could definitely see where that was coming from, and it would fit in with this picture as a motive. Regardless of that parentification to make up for the guilt definitely tracks.  

Also though disclaimer that I like Declan and find him interesting but he isn’t a character I have deep emotional attachment to or am creatively enamored by like some other chars in this verse / I’m not a diehard stan, so this might come from a more removed perspective than you were looking for as opposed to brain rot. But yeah I think there are absolutely interesting ideas to dig into there.

{HARRIS DICKINSON, 21, MALE, HE/HIM} Is that EDWARD MORRISON? A JUNIOR originally from MANHATTAN. They’re THE PROUD ELITE on campus, but even they could get blamed for Greer’s disappearance. 

tl;dr: eddie responsible, pragmatic, methodic but he is also frustrated that he still hasn’t found his path in life and is too scared to live life the way he wants to without disappointing his family. i feel like, right now, he’s at this crossroads where he wants to be young and find his path and have fun, but he is too scared this will put all the great things he has in jeopardy.

-– the basics:

full name: edward rufus morrison nicknames: ed, eddie, rufus (if you want to annoy him) + whatever your muse desires age: 21 birthday: march 13th, 2002 birthplace: new york city, new york major: computer science + literature gender: cisgender male sexuality: bisexual

stats - pinterest board - playlist - wanted connections

multimedia character inspirations:

henry winter (the secret history), dickie greenleaf (ripley - 2024), julian fromme (these violent delights), art donaldson (challengers), declan lynch and richard gansey iii (the raven cycle/the dreamer trilogy), kendall and shiv roy (succession), logan dellos (westworld), nate archibald (gossip girl), mahdi (blocco 181)

background:

middle child of the morrison family;

grew up as the family's perfect little golden boy;

his parents always deposited in him the expectations of one day taking on the family business;

was always sort of a conflict mediator at home, which is one of the reasons why his parents love him so much;

always enjoyed reading and studying;

didn't have any big issues growing up aside from sporadic ideological conflicts with his parents;

spent a year in france as a part of an exchange program in high school;

personality:

kind of nihilistic;

matured way too early so he kind of just wants to be young and dumb for a while but will not allow himself to be happy bc he feels like being his dad's ideal of a man is more important;

very creative and artistic;

on the outside he's a conformist, on the inside he's super liberal. he refrains from dabbling in politics, though bc as aware as he can be abt his privilege, he would never give up the nice things he has;

roy-siblings coded: he will do anything to impress an unloving parent because there's no drug more powerful than parental validation

can be very practical when he needs to be, but is usually very much the opposite

he is very VERY lost in life, very frustrated, very unhappy, thinks he's trowing his life away and regrets like 75% of his life choices;

he can be a bit selfish and narcissistic;

thinks he's smarter than everyone;

cannot muster up the courage to confront his family about anything so he can often be found looking forlornly at the horizon wondering abt everything his life could have been;

headcanons

fatally allergic to hornets. he WILL die if he gets stung

loves videogames;

kind of an art/history nerd;

annoying film-bro that carries a mubi tote around and has a criterion channel subscription (also hit him up if you want to borrow any criterion collective exclusive releases);

would have been an actor in another life. LOVES shakespeare;

eddie is kind of closeted with his bisexuality, mostly bc he feels like his parents might start looking at him differently (a few ppl know and he doesn't make a point of hiding it but he won't openly label himself as queer, it's a weird thing but you know where i'm going with this right)

also LOVES winter sports like and is an amazing tennis player but doesn't care much about other sports;

mildly near-sighed

slightly allergic to polyester (as per a collective gc decision lmao)

other tropes: princely young man, gentleman snarker, byronic hero.

RELATIONSHIP TO GREER: Most of his life, Greer was like a best friend inside of their home. Someone with whom he shared most of his fondest memories, like summers in the Hamptons, Christmases in the Alps, and Halloweens at Disney World. Yet, when you grow up in a Succession-esque household, there are certain unspoken rules about loyalty and comradery. Siblinghood was always a game – fun, for the most part, but competitive and always marred by the inevitable awareness that there was always a great deal at stake and that one could end up finding himself on the losing side. Luckily, for most of their lives, the Unfavorite gracefully assumed that position – which neither he, nor Greer ever questioned. But Edward knew that there were always boundaries to his relationship with the golden girl, there were secrets to be kept from her, lies to be told to appease her, because he knew – as his twin did – that Greer would gladly throw any of them under a bus coming in at full speed if she knew that would expand her advantage in their parents’ rankings.

HOW THEY EMBODY THEIR SKELETON TROPE: The linen shirts, the tailored suits and the cashmere sweaters attest to his love of all things fine and luxurious. Edward is the stereotypical Barbie of northeastern rich men: his favorite sport is skiing; he loves a good glass of premium aged scotch; and his go-to Holiday getaway is quick trip to Europe. All this privilege makes him a little out of touch with reality. Sometimes he just doesn’t get the so-called “small pleasures of life”. And all this luxury at his full disposal might make him appear a little too self-assured. He doesn’t do it out of malice or hatred of the less privileged, though, he just loves his life too much not to be all-in in it… 

EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES: tennis, sailing, writing club, fencing club

16 and 22!!

16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

adam and ronan being fully functional teenage parents to human child opal...dark days. and sanding away trc characters' assholery! i also just in general don't get the appeal of non-magical aus, but that's a firmly personal taste thing

22. your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores

there is sooooo much in trc that fits this. in no particular order: jordan and hennessy's fucking insane backstory. lynch family fuckery especially the fact that declan and ronan were living their own private nightmares throughout their childhood. batshit crazy DREAM lore. implied fairy market shenanigans, that whole time period from when niall gave up his memories till he gets killed is so fascinating for me. recently i reread the gwenllian and artemus chapters from trk and i'm so so so intrigued by that whole deal (but this one i can understand not being so popular lol). aurora's whole deal 😔

i mean fandom, but tbh i also wish canon itself went deeper into these.

[lizpaige]

Ronan is a gift-giver, that's how he shows affection so he doesn't have to use his words, and i want that to come back in full force after the Lynch bros reconcile 😂 stuff Ronan has dreamt for Declan and unceremoniously shoved in his hands without a word: bullet-proof suit jacket, pen that never runs out of ink, noise-canceling headphones that only cancel out shit he doesn't wanna hear, booby traps for the condo, little snake friend that curls around Declan's wrist and looks like a bracelet (Declan is baffled by this one and insists he doesn't want it but he gets attached eventually), truly untraceable and encrypted phone to do business with, alarm clock that randomly announces when Declan's been boring for too long

BULLET PROOF SUIT JACKET 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 im sobbing

that alarm clock has me laughing again thank youuuu

um YES this is canon. i wonder what ridiculously dramatic gifts he’d give gansey after literally dreaming a sun to keep his mint plants alive. 🙃

[speciouspessimism]

does gansey smoke cigarettes guys.

[alicanteathings]

don't think how loud gansey cried when ronan tried to kill himself.

don't think about how gansey was scared when niall lynch died.

don't think about how terrified gansey was when matthew was kidnapped . don't think about gansey who prayed even he was an atheist because he knew that ronan wouldn't survive another death.

don't think how bad gansey felt when he discovered noah died for him.

don't think how devastated he was because he didn't know how to help adam.

please, don't think how he suffered when he discovered that noah died for nothing.

just don't think about it.

[stitchkiss]

College!Adam Headcanon

This is kinda old but i thought i’d post it anyways! Declan and Adam at college!!!

adam gets accepted to the ivy league college of his dreams

but, to ronan’s horror, its the same university declan attends

declan likes adam and he approves of his relationship to his brother, so he takes adam under his wing

ronan thinks declan just wants to corrupt adam with boring political shit and a never ending supply of conversational hors d'oeuvres

they drive to d.c. together

they drive home together on the sundays adam doesn’t have work or an assignment due

ronan is a bit jealous of how much time they spend together

but then adam comes home and they spend an entire afternoon doing rather unholy things for a sunday and his jealousy is forgotten

(ronan doesnt know he’s the topic of their discussions a majority of the time)

adam and declan also share a study group

the members are friends declan made (shocker!) in his first year

they think declan’s pleasant and kind, but sometimes a tad boring for a twenty year old

there are moments his friends see The Real Declan, but they find it’s best to enjoy the part of himself he’s giving them

he’s also suspiciously private

so when he introduces them to adam parrish, a mysterious freshman with stellar work ethic, they start to see a little more into declan’s world.

they’re apprehensive of adam in the beginning

he’s younger than them first of all

and he’s nearly as private as declan is

but when he allows bits and pieces of himself to be known, it seems… fake. unreal.

he uses tarot cards regularly

they’re accurate enough to end up causing someones midlife crisis at the tender age of 19.

he says offhandedly that he’s a magician, but not that kind like there’s any other kind

he’s freakishly great with plants and animals

one guy in their group swears the plant adam sits by in the study room seems to stand straighter when he’s around

another claims she saw a herd of random cats crowding around adam on campus and he simply told them to please go away i have places to be

and they just. left. ???

he also somehow managed to get into sophomore and junior classes that aren’t offered to freshman

adam parrish is a mystifying creature and it scares them.

declan listens to these complaints and rolls his eyes

this raises some eyebrows

“adam parrish is the smartest little shit i’ve ever met. befriending him will get you farther than you think”

thats how the study group finds out adam and declan went to the same prestigious academy and thats how they know each other

things go smoother after that

they find out where declan fucks off to every weekend and sometimes takes adam too

this is also how they find out about adams boyfriend

they do not find out he’s related to declan

(adam and declan want to keep ronan on the DL for safety reasons, and declan had never mentioned the names of his brothers anyways so it wouldn’t matter, right?)

anyways they come back from cow shit valley, virginia and the group gets together for a pre-midterm week schedule organization session before everything gets messy

they’re ivy league, what’d you expect?

they chatter about their weekend as they jot down times and finals and the most opportune part of their day to grab a coffee

then someone complains they won’t have any time to spend with their girlfriend for two weeks

thus generating an uproar of a little over a half dozen young adults dejected over loss time with their significant others

there’s comfort and pouts and cute couple stories

declan realizes he’s the only single one, which, fuck.

he’s proud his friends have such happy romantic lives, but if he has to endure another second listening to hallmark grade romance stories, he’s going to throw up.

then:

“adam, what about you? you gonna survive not seeing your mans ass for two weeks?”

adam blushes and rightfully so, but declan makes a face

“we spent the whole weekend together because i knew i wouldn’t get the chance to see or talk to him for a while. it’s not that big a deal, we’ve been apart longer”

the sappiness of adams voice would be endearing if it weren’t declan’s b r o t h e r he was talking about

ronan lynch and endearment were two emotions on opposite sides of a fucked up love spectrum

adams love spectrum was a goddamn puzzle

“oooo. did adam get some this weekend???”

declan blanched as others around the table howled and catcalled and raised suggestive eyebrows

this...this was not a conversation he wanted to be apart of

at all.

adams eyes flickered over to declan as he laughed the comment off

he decided to tread lightly over the brother to the snake’s territory

“we’re not just a physical couple. there’s a lot of love and worship between us”

“aWwWw LiKe WhAt??”

“he's very thoughtful. he, uh, makes me hand cream because he knows how much i work with them—“

“he has a HAND KINK adam you can’t ignore this!!!!”

declan tries to ignore this greatly.

adam stayed respectfully quiet, though more to the fact that ronan did actually have a hand kink but he wasn’t about to expose his boyfriend

besides, that information was adams to know and adams use to his advantage when need be

declan was glaring intently at the planner in front of him

adam didn’t even think he was breathing!!!

“are you a top or a bottom” someone winked

declan dropped his head into his heads heavily

“can we please stop talking about this?” came muffled from his position

“don’t be homophobic, declan! we always talk about the saucy details, and now youre all uncomfortable because it’s guy on guy?”

adam willed himself to die on the spot, but even his magician powers could not grant him instant death to escape violent embarrassment

declan straight g a g g e d because that was worded ever so eloquently

“i don’t want to talk about the saucy details of parrish’s sex life because he’s dating my brother.”

[clxec]

TRC fandom thinks Adam Parrish is a sweet soft boy forgetting that this kid murdered a man, framed another man for some of the vilest crimes known and is also portrayed to be the coldest, most ruthless of all them.

[allforthe-gays]

matthew decides to start answering the phone by saying

"HEWWO??? this is matthew :)"

and it makes declan very upset and ronan isn't sure how to feel about it because he was the one to come up with matthew so he has a crisis because ronan realizes that matthew's humor is really just his sense of humor. ronan decides that it's not a big deal, since it was 3 year old him that came up with matthew, so that's why matthew's sense of humor is weird.

but then opal starts doing it.
