sorry but if you don't look at pynch and immediately think of the sweet home alabama au that could practically write itself, idk what the fuck you're looking at
#lmfao I went looking because I remembered someone already posted about this and it was me. I'm someone#so glad I'm consistent#sweet home alabama is my roman empire apparently

it's simply beyond me how no one's ever done a sweet home alabama au for pynch when it honestly just writes itself
#pynch#there's one (1) of these I've seen and it's WIP/abandoned#they're sooooo petty they'll make each other's life hell are you kidding me#maybe drop the walking out at the alter plot. but the rest is truly inspired#adam parrish was born for this role#v:text

Ronan Lynch is a devout Catholic; this had been a fact of him that Adam had always known, objectively, and yet had never quite understood until it had been lain in front of him in unignorable ways throughout the unfolding of each coming Sunday.
Ronan had been confirmed under Saint Christopher, and for all his poor driving habits, refused to drive if the silver Saint Christopher pin fell from its place nestled along the rearview mirror. Ronan had blushed scarlet the first time they’d done something further than kiss, apparently vaguely mortified (yet obviously not too much so) at the notion of premarital anything. Ronan Lynch knew how to fold palm leaves into crosses, looping the tails of them in and folding them under themselves.

#pynch#I was going to bookmark the whole fic for this paragraph only to realize I'd already bookmarked it for this paragraph lmao#I cannot explain to you my deep obsession with fics that depict ronan's honest devotion to catholism and to god in a way that feels REAL#pinkhorizon's latest fic where ronan talks about marriage being a sacrament? I lost my fucking mind#v:text

kinda miss pre-trc ronan that we never even had seen properly. wish we could get a little childhood au friends with pynch.
can you imagine curly and carefree ronan playing tennis with declan, while adam watches them. ronan winks at him and says something along the lines "hey, this one is for you" only to get a tennis ball straight in his face because he got distracted by adam's amused smile. can you.
#fully believe an au ronan whose dad was never murdered has his reality-shattering moment when he finds out about adam's abuse#a ronan who's had an idyllic and sheltered childhood where his family is the center of his universe#finding out that not only is this a reality for people he knows but for one of his close friends?#he'd be forever changed by that imo. perhaps not nearly as much as finding his dad's body#but it'd be a coming of age moment for sure#and following that: I think there are so many ways to interpert how his dynamic with adam may work in this au#his relationship with adam re: the abuse is so different from gansey's in trb largely because of his disillusionment#but definitely also because of their compatible personalities#so I wonder about all the ways the scale could tip in a everybody-lives au#adam x ronan#the raven cycle

On the outside, the three Lynch brothers appeared remarkably dissimilar: Declan, a butter-smooth politician; Ronan, a bull in a china-shop world; Matthew, a sunlit child. On the inside, the Lynch brothers were remarkably similar: They all loved cars, themselves, and each other.

have to get this off my chest but the actual real point I was trying to make with this post is not at all to romanticize lack of communication. talking is sexy and necessary and healthy and pynch Will Not Survive the long haul skating by on vibes and physical touch alone. the point I was actually trying to make is how fascinated I am by the way the stakes are laid against them and how hard they will have to work and how hard they will have to love each other to learn this skill. and they WILL. they will.
the second point is that you cannot handwave actual real issues with vibes and/or metaphysical psychic mind-melding (?), and if I open the can of worms of how I haven't read td3 and never ever will I'll probably be cast out of this website, but I digress. in my head, at least, adam goes to college and they make the stakes laid against them work for them by using long distance to learn how to talk, since you cannot base a relationship on vibes and physical touch in two different states. there will be a rough patch and then there will be comporomises and vague conversations with almost-friends about their own long distance relationship hardles and there will be 3 a.m. phone conversations opening up about trauma because it's easier to take down walls when you don't have to look each other in the eye. ronan will have his phone on him 24/7 for 4 years of undergrad +- master's/doctorate if applicable, and then set fire to it in a bonfire in the backyard. they'll come out on the other side so good at talking that they circle back to relying mostly on physical touch because they're so in tune. I rest my case your honor.
#v:text#i talked myself out of writing this post 4-5 times and then finally caved#fandom is a silly indulgence and you'll just have to survive me stating I dislike sequels on principle and especially the idea of this one#the future past trk is my headcanons and select fics only and tr3 ''''canon'''' cannot hurt me here 💕#pynch is truly something that can be so personal ymmv etcetera

it's like this: ronan kisses adam on his birthday, and they don't talk. later that night adam kisses ronan on the front porch, and they don't talk. they kiss some more and they go inside and they kiss on the couch and ronan puts adam's fingers in his mouth and adam says something in latin, but they don't really talk.
then ronan's mom dies, and adam comes find him and they spend the night side by side. they don't talk. then they find glendower dead and adam's hands nearly choke ronan to death and gansey dies and gansey comes back to life and cabeswater is gone forever.
they don't talk. all of them go home together. ronan goes off to see matthew (and declan). adam goes back to school (and work). he spends a few nights driving from school to work and from work to st. agnes and doing his neglected chemistry homework and recalculating his budget after several missed shifts and reordering his meticulous to do list for college applications and thinking about death and about life and about the inevitability of inherited violence. they don't talk.
he knows ronan's back from dc because he knocks on adam's door at 2 in the morning. adam lets him in. ronan takes off his boots. adam carefully stacks his chemistry homework and slides it into his bag. ronan exhales loudly and kisses him when adam turns back around. they don't talk.
they kiss and adam takes off his own shirt. they kiss and ronan feverishly touches his bare skin but doesn't take off his own. they kiss and adam asks if he can take his shirt off for him and ronan says yes into the hot, sensitive skin of adam's neck. then it's 4 a.m and adam has school in the morning so they stop. adam tells ronan he can stay and ronan says no and neither of them elaborates and they argue a little but other than that, they don't talk. ronan leaves.
and then they kiss whenever they can: at adam's apartment and in the barnes and at monmoth and in the bmw and the hondayota and at the parking lot outside aglionby and in the shadowed corner outside the trailer factory's back exit and, once, at nino's. adam always takes both their clothes off. ronan nearly always puts adam's fingers in his mouth. by thanksgiving adam's brought ronan off with his hand and ronan spent a sunday on his knees in as well as above the church. by christmas adam has made ronan come four times by pressing the fingers of one hand on his tongue and the fingers of the other inside him. by the time winter break ends, adam has taken both their clothes off and crawled over ronan on his childhood bed and slid inside him. they curled up side by side after. they still didn't learn how to talk.
#pynch#trc#I have thoughts#because really it's like this: how do you learn to communicate when you're 18 and traumatized and touching is so much easier#who teaches two teenage boys with no guiding figures the necessity of words#and the fragility of relying on physical intimacy in place of emotional intimacy#where do you learn how to talk and argue and fight in a healthy conductive way if you've never been taught it at home#anyway. I have Thoughts#v:text

like, was adam perfect? no. he sinned and he asked for too much and he couldn't find happiness in what he already had. but is that not what humanity is? God's animals were content in the garden of eden because they didn't know to want for more. the first man was different not because he knew how to speak or because he was created last, but because he Wanted. and what is want if not autonomy. and what is autonomy if not to be human. and what is to be human if not to sin
I know I already made the post but I'm still so fucked up about it. Adam, the first man, who was punished with hard work for striving for knowledge and wisdom. Adam, the garden's keeper, whose actions cast a curse on the land he worked. Adam, the first lover, the first son, the first human.
#this is a character analysis of adam parrish through the lense of being the most human of the gang#if you couldn't tell#and to be human is to lose faith and act out and find your own path#if you couldn't TELL#v:text
