AU Ronan - Based off Gansey's AU Background
Gansey's family was killed when he was ten during one of those crazy Gotham villain attempts at taking over the city. This time it was using insects, similar to Gansey's canon death except his parents and his sister, Helen, died. Batman saved Gansey, but only because Gansey managed to get far enough away from the attack that it wasn't as severe for him.
He never blames Batman/Bruce for not saving his family. He knows that it was a miracle that he survived. That can't happen four times in a row even if Batman is in the city.
Bruce knew the Ganseys and knew that Gansey was going to be Traumatized by what happened and no one would understand him or be able to really help. Bruce adopted Gansey, who grew up with his sister (Bruce's daughter) Evie.
Gansey's actually well adjusted considering. He had his panic attacks, his obsessions that keep him steady. He glomped onto Alfred as a sort of father figure too and a mentor (like Malory in the books). He found a balance between Bat Fam and trying to be a normal child/teenager. He trained to become a hero of some sort while also learning the behind the scenes stuff to help the others. He just hasn't decided what role he wants yet. Also, it's Gotham. He's Bruce Wayne's adopted son. He needs to know how to defend himself. When he's in costume, he's the Ghost, a name he chose because he 'died' and came back.
As part of trying to have a normal life, he goes to a private school in Virginia. (It also gives him a chance to get helpful connections to obnoxious, rich future business leaders.) He's the King of the school, on the rowing and swim teams, has friends there but not as close as in TRC coz Secrets. He gets dragged back into the Bat world when the Batman V Superman stuff happens and ends up back in Gotham.
Ronan's father, Niall, lives. Ronan never shaves his head or goes to the dark side of things. He's still a shit and is wild and loves racing, but thanks partly to Gansey he never really falls in with Kavinsky (He leaves town unexpectedly). Ronan does get his tattoo and dream his Raven Chainsaw. He does meet Adam, but never meets Noah. He writes letters to Gansey and they video chat all the time. He knows Evie, but hasn't met Bruce. He still sings, plays the bagpipes, and speaks Gaelic. He's one of the top students at Aglionby and actually attends classes even if he still prefers wearing his tie around his head and gets into all sorts of trouble. He and his brother Declan get along. His father dreams him his very own BMW in black as a 16th birthday present so he has that instead of his fathers BMW.
*Anything I've forgotten will be added in the tags.
RACING - If you like speed, the thrill of possibly being caught by the police, the adrenaline rush of waiting for the light to change, the sound of an engine roaring beneath your feet. Meet him at any intersection and prepare to race! Be warned. His car is special (magical) and his instinct for racing excellent.
SINGING - Karaoke? Amateur night at the bar? Or just a few drinks to enjoy in the late/early hours of the city life? Ronan has been to the big city before, but his heart lives at The Barns in the rolling hills of Virginia countryside. That doesn't mean he doesn't know how to enjoy the city nightlife. If you're lucky he might sing!
ROLL THE DICE - Start a thread and see where things end up. Introduce yourself. Pick a fight. Drinking contest (he is Irish). Good, bad, ugly interactions all welcome.

Forcing himself to think of things that weren't related to kissing or ways to get Ronan naked, he stared at the keys to the BMW in an attempt to settle his jittering nerves. Then Ronan's words sharpened it attention, causing him to give his best friend a dangerous grin. "When you win this race? You really think your German toy can beat the Pig?" He might have let the race slide if Ronan hasn't issued that challenge. "When I win, I get a kiss. You already know I'll date you so that's a moot point. So afterward we'll have to figure out the 'and then...'"
no subject
Fuck me! He wanted to kiss Gansey now. When his heart was already racing laps around them both and they were about to smell gasoline and hear tires screeching against the asphalt.
"Meet you at the stop light. All you have to do is beat me to the next." Nothing in his entire world of Dreams could prepare him for this moment. To pry himself away from Gansey when he was so fucking close to getting what he'd ached and pined over for so long. He was such a fucking idiot for waiting, but FUCK Gansey was worth waiting for.
He managed it, as painful as it may have been. Pulling himself away, jangling his keys over the hood of the BMW before dropping into the seat. He gripped the steering wheel and inhaled. It wasn't about winning. Either way they both were going to win this race. But he loved to race and he loved to race Gansey and the Pig.

The reminder of winning caused a faint pang of guilt. He really shouldn't be racing, but one night wouldn't hurt. They wouldn't get caught so he wasn't risking putting any unnecessary attention onto Bruce.
Rolling his eyes at Ronan's bravado, he couldn't quite fight back a smile. They'd never really gotten a chance to race before. They'd never had a chance to goad each other or flirt. Before Ronan could leave, he caught a fistful of his shirt, keeping him close, ignoring the temptation it offered. Tipping his head so they were almost kissing, he forced himself not to do more than just speak. "Do you really think I'm going to lose now that I have what I want in sight?"
Slowly he let go of Ronan's shirt, letting his fingers linger briefly along his side before lowering his hand. "I'll be waiting for you and the second light."
As Ronan moved to the BMW, Gansey trailed his fingers along the side of the Pig as he walked to the driver's side door. He was making a show of it, hinting and suggesting as hand moved along slick paint. Getting into the Pig, he started the Camaro, stroking the dashboard before pulling onto the street. "Tonight we have to fly, mon âme." Even if he lost, he'd still get a kiss, still start something important with Ronan, but he was too competitive not to try to win the prize that Ronan was so graciously offering.
