[ Ronan looks up at him, waiting. He knows something is wrong the moment Ronan goes still, and knows it must be serious when he tries to distract himself with the can. He waits, unwilling to push his friend, and knowing this must be important.

Then Ronan explains, and Gansey frowns. Ronan had almost killed Adam without even knowing it. After everything that's happened to them, he understands that fear intimately. ]

Believe me, I don't want that either.

[ He really doesn't. Though, on the other hand, he really doesn't want Adam to have to shoulder the burden alone, either. ]

But you know of that risk now, don't you? If it's known it can be managed. You wouldn't be flying blind this time.

[He shrugs halfheartedly at the question. Ronan isn't sure if he quite has the heart to say that he doesn't know how to even begin to manage a risk like that. Adam had passed out when Ronan had pulled a monster from Cabeswater into his room- what would happen if he tried to use their energy to rebuild the entire forest?

Cabeswater means so much to all of them, but in Ronan's mind, it absolutely isn't worth it to risk Gansey or Adam's life to restore it, not after coming so close to almost losing both of them.]

Maybe not blind.

[He presses his thin lips together, his expression going severe as he tries to think it though. In the end, Ronan can't seem to come to a conclusion that he really likes but he tries anyway.]

I don't know if Parrish can scry anymore, but if he can- maybe it can tell him what we need to do. He's helped it before.

[ Gansey doesn't know either. He doesn't think Adam has tried since they came back here, and the mention of it makes him thoughtful. His thumb brushes across his lower lip. ]

He hasn't lost his connection, but the time that he's from...

Cabeswater was barely alive. I wouldn't see much harm in trying, though? All we need is some bigger lights. It can't be that dangerous.

[ Could it? Gansey is certainly in no mood to risk his life again, but he's already learned the lesson that he can't allow fear to rule him. ]

And you wouldn't have had Blue's help before. Neither of you would, and I'm sure she'd be willing now.

[Ronan isn't entirely sure how he feels about making this into a full group project, but he supposes that it might be for the best to see how they all interact with Cabeswater after- what had happened. It's no surprise that they've been hesitant to bring it up, with everything that had gone on in the last day they'd spent in Henrietta, but it's probably important to at least do a little research toward it.

At least, he's not surprised that Gansey wants to. Adam would probably be curious as well, though he's less certain about Blue.

In the end, Ronan relents, though he's still hesitant. If Gansey says it's alright, then it must be. There's simply no other way to put it.]

...we'll give it a shot. Just- be careful.

[He almost lost Gansey before and Cabeswater had saved him then. Ronan doesn't know the true depths or implications of it, but he can't deny being a little nervous to explore their capabilities and find out.]
