[ Despite all the thoughts and feelings warring in his head, Ronan schools his features into a mask of indifference. Kavinsky said he'd changed, himself, but it was difficult to believe when he spoke in the exact same way he always did. ]

That's nice. You'll forgive me if I don't buy that he's changed that much. [ Ronan has no proof, but he has a brother here in Xist, and Adam, and Blue.

All he can hope for is that Kavinsky found someone else to obsess over and try to break.

When Rafa says that Kavinsky told him Ronan and Gansey were together, a bitter little chuckle escapes Ronan, and he shakes his head, running a hand over his face as he breathes in. ]

See? This is exactly why I can't believe he's changed in any way. Gansey and I never were anything but friends. Kavinsky's just jealous and unhinged and built stories in his own head and spouted them out as truths. [ Sometimes, Ronan wonders if he would have done anything different if Kavinsky had kidnapped Gansey, and not Matthew. If he would have been even angrier.

Eventually, he shakes his head his head again, and steals a look at Adam before turning back to the camera. ] That's not Gansey. [ But he is just as important to Ronan than Gansey is, if not more at this point, and Ronan is reluctant to say this to a friend of Kavinsky's. ]
