Quote #10
But there also wasn't any way that he was going to let Whelk slide in and take what they'd worked so hard for. Wait! Gansey could always afford to wait. Adam couldn't. (41.38)
Adam is so not into letting someone else slide in and steal his glory. He and Whelk are kind of similar in this way: They're both in a desperate situation and feel like they need to do something… anything… to change their lives.
