Declan's jaw ticks, only because he remembers the mounting desperation he felt trying to get a hold of Ronan when things were falling apart with Matthew. He isn't surprised that nothing has changed.

So he nods.

"I don't expect you to," he admits. Ronan has almost broken Declan of ever trying to depend on him. And he had dozens of reasons to never go to the Barns again, but maybe he shouldn't attach those to the Meadows. He has no childhood memories of it, no trauma attached to it, no reason to avoid it.

"Do you... want me to come by?"

Ronan has a life here. Declan realizes he hadn't assumed that he'd be invited to be part of it. A lot of the things that caused tension between them for years aren't here. But a lot of things travel just as easily as the Lynch brothers do.
