[ that last piece, the little bit cast aside to him, like he isn't half a step away from abandoning mikal and posie and alva and alva's children just for the sake of making sure he can stay at ronan's side, sinks in like a knife coated in something toxic, then twisted in his gut.
his eyes raise to ronan, at once confused and angry and hurt beyond what he can say. legitimately, he has no words for this.
surging up, he crosses to ronan, and punches him. not hard enough to break anything, he knows well enough to restrain his strength, and it's infuriating to have to hold that back too. some time later he'll realize he's likely horrified adam in the process of it, but this is what he is, and ronan knew that when he'd ask him to be part of this. it is, however, hard enough to knock him on his ass.
turning, he's heading for the door, casting out a last comment. ]
You know my number if you need any more fucking couples counseling.
