thinking about the lynch’s false mirrors.
declan as a mirror to niall. a son made in his father’s image.
ronan as a mirror to niall. a father choosing to model a son after himself, after his brother.
matthew as a mirror to his brothers, to his father. ronan manifesting a kinder, softer mirror of declan’s face in a brother that would be better than either of them, for both of them.
ronan having to look at declan after niall’s death, seeing his father’s face, not just in the mirror, but in a brother that is not his father, not his idol.
declan having to look at ronan after niall’s death, seeing his father’s face, not just in the mirror, but in a brother all too like his father, dangerous and horrible and lovely.

i love it when a piece of media is like: is there anything more painful than knowing your sibling? is there anything more tragic than knowing they are the only person who will ever share the same experience as you? they were the only constant in your life. they were there since birth and now, no matter how they betray you, you will still love them. you will always feel the need to protect them even if you can no longer bring yourself to talk to them. will anyone else be able to understand? will anybody be able to love you and hate you and fear you the same way a sibling loves you and hates you and fears you? no, probably not

the lynch brothers are so funny to me bc they’re like.
1. ancient demon god in a skin suit who births monsters and craves violence
2. homunculus with no internal organs and an innate desire to walk to an unknown destination
3. declan

he'd told himself his father was hateful, his mother invisible, the barns dreadful, the dreaming frightful. it had been the only way to bear losing it all.
