and what if i said nicky is actually really important to neil’s development as a character and also to neil as a person? are we ready for that conversation
#the thing about nicky is that he feels incredibly grounded in a way the others don’t necessarily#his issues largely go back to his fucked up family dynamics#and his flaws also generally seem to be reactions against the atmosphere he grew up in#ie he pushes people to be open about their sexuality because he never could be#& the whole eden’s scene shows his lack of respecting/understanding boundaries in the worst way#and it’s familiar to us as readers—nicky could be someone anyone knows#and that makes his flaws harder for readers to move past than like. murder.#or things that aren’t part of daily life#BUT#none of that changes the fact that nicky hemmick is so so important to neil#he gets multiple of neil’s rare smiles#he’s the one that tells neil the foxes are his friends#he accepts him as family and pushes him to find meaning outside of exy#neil doesn’t fully trust him after eden’s#but he also doesn’t really fully trust anyone except MAYBE andrew and wymack#anyway#more nuanced analysis of nicky plz#and also appreciation#hbd nicholas hemmick ily#aftg#all for the game#nicky hemmick#my posts
