[He sighs, watching Adam. He's really just trying to have a conversation. To understand it. Especially after Adam told him about not wanting Ronan to be with Jesse. He just can't figure it all out. Maybe he's not meant to, it seems]

Yeah, sure. I'll ask Ronan. But you know, if you two are having a thing, it would be nice to talk to my brother's... boyfriend? Partner? Whatever you call yourselves. It would be nice to be able to talk to you too. I overreacted the other day. For good reason, at the time. I'm sure we both just want to keep Ronan safe. I'm not interrogating you, Adam.

[Declan eyes Adam, pursing his lips]

But all the exhaustion, it's not necessary here, is it? Do what you love, you told me.
