I saw something super interesting on TikTok about Kevin and the Foxes, and Jean and the Trojans (this thought isn't mine, but I couldn't say who said it), and I want to comment on it.

The comment went something like this:

Kevin needed to know when he left The Nest that he wasn't as "special" as he thought, neither in terms of playing exy nor in terms of trauma. His ego is powerful, and by watching the Foxes, he was able to know that he wasn't the only one with past traumas, nor the only one with issues, and that his mastery of exy didn't matter to anyone outside of The Nest. Ultimately, exy wasn't the most important thing (for the Foxes, it certainly isn't).

In other words, the Foxes are telling Kevin, "Hey, you're not the only one with issues, and whether you're good at exy or not doesn't matter to me because I have my own traumas." And that's good, because it makes Kevin see certain things and is a reality check for him.

But that's also why Neil's appearance is so important to Kevin, because Neil restores Kevin's importance to the former when he left The Nest, and that makes him start taking steps against the Ravens.

The Foxes show the Queen reality, and Neil empowers him again on the field.

Kevin needed both things: to know he wasn't so special or the only one with problems off the field, but also to know that he's special on it.

Something like that.

On the other hand, there's Jean and the Trojans. Jean, who needed the exact opposite of Kevin.

Jean's situation was normalized until he arrived at the Trojans, and they told him, "No, this isn't normal. Not only isn't it, but we love you, and you're special off the field. You're not just special on it. And we love you off it."

They show him that he's special both on and off the field, that what he's experienced isn't normal, and that he's important. Both what he experiences and what he desires.

It's the complete opposite of what Kevin needed.

While Kevin needed to know he wasn't the only one with problems and wasn't so "special," Jean needed to know that he is special and that what he needs matters, and that his traumas aren't normal and shouldn't be.

Now I dare say… (And this is my own thought):

Between Kevin, Jeremy, and Jean, Jean is the one who's in the best shape right now mentally.

Incredibly, Jean is the only one who's facing his problems head-on. Jeremy avoids them and dissociates (ignoring problems to the point where we don't know what's wrong with him until he verbalizes it is very close to dissociation. And what he does with sex is…) as a defense mechanism. Kevin drinks. He's practically an alcoholic. He drinks to cope with everything.

The only one here who has said "I deserve to get better" is Jean.

That's saying something.

I'm not talking about Andrew and Neil because they're separate. Andrew is bipolar and has a mental memory disorder, a curse for his trauma, and I think he goes to Betsy because he connects with her, not because he's looking to get better. Despite that, he gets better with Betsy, but I don't think that's exactly what Andrew is looking for when he talks to her.

On the other hand, Neil doesn't think he needs to get better. In the world he lives in, revealing secrets and how his mind works is dangerous. It's like a mafia boss going to a psychologist. He would lose part of his ability to act outside of morality, and Neil doesn't want that, as he needs that ability to feel calm and defend his people. His "amorality" is what makes him feel at peace with himself.

Neil doesn't think by normal standards, but by the standards of a dark and immoral world. I don't think going to therapy would do him any good because he would sabotage it himself.

I think Neil and Andrew are characters who have reached their mental "balance" to a certain point. Jean is getting there. And Jeremy and Kevin haven't yet hit rock bottom enough to say, hey, come on, we have to start climbing to get out of here.

That's why I think something will happen in TBC with Jeremy and Kevin that will make them "hit rock bottom" and begin to seek mental stability.

Jeremy's stability will arrive (or begin) in TBC, and Kevin will start working on his in TQG.

Peak fan service in anime was when Furudate gave Oikawa glasses and made him analyze Karasuno vs Shiratorizawa while Iwaizumi sat there in casual clothes calling him a shitty person.

Neil is so fucking funny, I feel like every read through I notice a new thing that he does that is just absolute comedy gold. I never fully processed the fact that he was lowkey being funny as fuck in Baltimore. He wakes up from being knocked out and sees Lola sitting backwards in a wooden chair, obviously trying to seem intimidating and fully expecting Neil to be frightened considering what she had done to him on the car ride there. But instead of showing any sign of fear, Neil (who fully believes he is going to die), looks at how badly Lola messed up his hands/arms and is like “uh these have to be cleaned?? Do you even know how infections work??” and when Lola reminds him that it literally doesn’t matter because he’s going to die, he just gets up off the ground and wanders over to the sink to wash them anyways. Like, he definitely believed her, he’s just like that. Then, best part of all, once he finishes washing his wounds out, he realizes that he can’t towel dry them (for obvious reasons) and literally turns back around to look at Lola and sticks his arms out in front of him to drip dry. Like Lola is just sitting there in her chair while Neil looks at her like
