oh my god i hate this so much because the possibilities are endless??? and i could easily turn it into something angsty but im not going to because i love myself SO IMAGINE‘ok, hit me’‘ronan……’ ‘c'mon man, just do it. try to knock me down’and it’s so ironic because most people would give anything to be able to freely punch ronan in the face but adam can’t do it. he doesn’t want to and it doesn’t even matter because he knows he will never be able to face his father like this, he will never be able to fight back so everything is pointless. how did he even let ronan talk him into this? what a terrible idea.but ok, let’s say adam does try to punch him but misses and something goes wrong, i don’t know, maybe ronan was momentarily too distracted by adam’s beautiful face and loses balance while deflecting or something, I DON’T KNOW, THE POINT IS, THEY END UP ON THE GROUND.and their limbs are tangled and their noses are almost touching and crap, this really was a bad idea, adam thinks, because now ronan is on top of him and they’re both breathing heavily, unable to move, too caught up on just how /close/ they are.adam’s staring wide eyed at ronan’s face, his long eyelashes casting shadows on his cheeks because he’s looking down staring at adam’s lips and at this point ronan is just screaming internally trying to keep it together probably?? i mean, he knows he should get up but they’re so close he can actually count the freckles on adam’s face (adam has freckles fight me on this!!) they’re so close he can feel adam’s hot breath on his face and if he leaned a little bit he could kiss him but of course he would never do that so he just rolls over forcing an awkward laugh, elbowing adam’s ribs‘that was fucking terrible parrish, you’re worse than gansey’‘well, i did knock you off your feet, didn’t i?’and ronan doesn’t reply because yes he did. yes he did.
OR…OR! WHAT ABOUT A TICKLE FIGHT?listen, i reject any ‘teach how to fight’ scenario in which they don’t end up on the ground lying on top of each other so WHAT IF instead of gazing into each other’s eyes for 10 years adam kind of tickles kind of shoves ronan like‘get off me, lynch. you’re heavy’ and of course ronan pokes back because ‘whose fault is it we ended up down here in the first place?’and from there they just start a full on tickle/shoving war, rolling around on the dusty ground laughing and making snarky remarks about how much the other sucks, you know, just begin generallyhappy and gross
