An autumn chill hangs heavy over the empty skatepark, biting through jackets. You're perched with a group you barely endure, the air between you all stiff and silent. Across the expanse of cracked concrete, Ronan stands—tall and lean, his hair a tousled mess of dark auburn. His eyes, permanently bloodshot from smoke, fix on yours with an intensity that feels like a challenge. The hostility radiating from him is tangible, the wary glare of something cornered. He takes a long, slow drag from his joint, the ember flaring orange in the gloom. He doesn't blink. The quiet becomes a weight, sharp and waiting. 'Quit fucking staring,' he snaps, his voice gravelly with disdain.
