No no the preview for a live action aftg should just be Riko spitting in Neil's mouth. No context whatsoever. Anyone still on board after that is going to be a fan.

I’m always kind of thinking about how Kevin Day can’t have a normal male friendship without turning it just a little homoerotic somehow

[parrish-the-thot]

Neil is such a lil freak I love him I just wanna

thinking about andrew minyard, a criminal justice student, sitting in some of his lectures as if he can't perfectly recall all the worst times of his life

[tankuare]

Bring back shame cause why did I just see ANDREW and AARON being shipped

[umikislibrary]

being so hyperfixated and feral for a book series that is just straight up fucking with us that even your sister gets posts of it in her tl??? and says "andrew and neil would be proud of you" for literally anything i do and then proceeds to say, "they play football right?" bless you child (gonna make her read it soon :P)

So, some interesting observations that I made when I searched for the word "love" in the original trilogy:

-The word "gloves" is said almost as much, if not more often 😂. Which makes sense since the narrator took two and a half books to figure out that his crush liked him.

-"Love" is used in relation more often to Exy than it is to people.

-The book where it is said the most is in The Raven King, with second place being The Foxhole Court, and the third The King's Men.

-Nicky is the character who says it the most, by far. Almost nobody else says it for the entirety of the trilogy.

You see this is why our goddess Ishtar Nora hits so hard: she writes myths, not stories, that's why they're so dark and deranged, she writes not for our thin veneer of rational thought but for the beasts lurking in our collective unconscious...

hiii which aftg character do you think you could do an 8 hour roadtrip with. like all day in the car with them.

hey storm!!! omg I love this question it's super fun.

I had a lot of instinct to say either Andrew, Nicky or Renee with this one but I think my final answer is the most surprising of the all LOL.

I disregarded Andrew solely bc doing a roadtrip with him would mean that we'd go in his car and I just would NOT be able to take the smoking even if we had the windows down. also I hate having the windows down LMAO.

For Nicky it was harder to disregard I just felt that he'd want to talk constantly the WHOLE time and I just wouldn't be able to swing that bc I like my quiet time during road trips so I can read, but I would feel obligated to talk to Nicky if he was excited about it.

Renee was ALMOST my final answer but ultimately I think I wouldn't be comfortable playing some of my music preferences around her even if she'd say she doesn't mind.

My final answers are Aaron or Dan!

Aaron would definitely respect the whole concept of me needing my quiet time I think. I also think our music tastes would vibe well. I would also also test him on med school work and stuff bc I like quizzing people lol. I think we'd have a good time.

Similar case with Dan! We both have a passion for teaching (or coaching in her case) so I think that would be something fun to discuss. I also just think we'd get along really well and have similar temperaments! I also think her music taste would ROCK.

Hold on -- Is Andrew casually suggesting he would offer up sexual favours if Neil asked for it? Is Neil ace and dense enough to not pick up on it?

Seriously, even if Andrew had been as obvious about Neil as Jean is about Jeremy (and like, every other attractive person), we'd never know about it because Neil cannot clock a sexual intention towards himself unless he's spent nearly a year studying the person and learning all their secrets.

[youaremysunshine-court]

darcy is like Andrew minyard because anyone who's read the book at least once loves him but when you go back for a reread he's a most disagreeable, unlikeable man for at least half the book and you have to convince yourself that he's not really like that
