Because he is Shane, he doesnât like conflict and prefers to âgive inâ because he believes no argument is good enough to get mad to someone he loves.
By consequence, he and Ryan never really fight.
At first, Ryan is ok with this until it starts to frustrate him because it feels like Shane dismisses things that are important. If they can argue about things they disagree, eventually one of them will explode.
Sometimes, Ryanâs answers when he is frustrated sound aggressive, and the way Shane ignores it feels like normalizing it and it makes things worse.
Eventually, it explodes on them.
In an ironic turn of events, itâs Shane the one that gets angry. And itâs over something petty, at the end of it, they canât even remember what was it.
What they do remember is that Ryan brought back every single time he had to shut up because Shane wouldnât have the conversation to avoid conflict.
After an intense match, they stare at each other, Shane leaves the apartment for a few hours.
He never yells even when angry, Ryan doesnât yell either but talks firmly and with big words, so it sometimes sound like he is yelling.
Once they cool down and Shane gets back, the first to talk is Ryan. He apologizes mostly for not telling Shane earlier that they do need to talk stuff sometimes.
Conflict is not necessary a fight, and sometimes itâs better to face it or it will become a time bomb. Shane apologizes too.
After, thye try to never came down to this again. Shane still prefers to avoid conflict, but also listens if Ryan needs to talk about something, while Ryan controls impulsiveness better and understands that not everything needs to be an argument.
