What: Ronan meets Dream
Where: In a dream
When: Night
Warnings: TBD
Ronan had been in Madison Valley for two weeks. There was no sign of Adam or Declan or Jordan or Gansey or even Chainsaw or Opal. He was completely on his own, and he had mixed feelings about it. He was grateful he was 18, and not required to have a guardian. That would suck balls. But because he was considered an adult, whether he behaved like one or not, he had an apartment, and a little bit of money.
He could work with that. It would be so much better if Adam or Gansey was here with him, but they weren't and he could ever perseverate on that fact or accept it. He was trying to accept it, because there wasn't much he could do about it. Unless he tried to dream a copy of them, and the thought had crossed his mind. But creating an Adam in his Dream would create a fake Adam, and not the Adam that Ronan loved.
So he wouldn't do it, because the product would pale in comparison to the real thing. He'd rather have no Adam and no Gansey than fake friends. But because the temptation was great, he'd resisted dreaming at all. That meant sleeping no more than 20 minutes at a time so he didn't get into the dream state of sleep. It was rough, but it was necessary.
And then the Nightwash hit him, black goo starting at his nose, then his eyes, and by the time it started oozing out his ears, he dropped into a sleep state without setting an alarm to wake himself within that thin window of time to prevent Dreaming. It was his first Dream in Madison, and he didn't know what to expect...
He realised pretty quickly that he wasn't alone. "Who's there?" he asked, turning in a slow, deliberate circle to take in the landscape.
