i don’t think people really appreciate how smart neil josten really is. in the very first chapter, before kevin had even walked into the room, he figured out he was going to. he realised that betsy was ocd immediately. he speaks like every european language. he was literally the only person that was able to read andrew. and, most impressively, HE WAS ON THE RUN FROM THE MAFIA ON HIS OWN, AND THEY DIDN’T FIND OUT WHO HE WAS UNTIL HE WANTED THEM TO. neil is not as ‘dense’ as you guys make him out to be.

All the things Neil felt were unimportant enough to gloss over in AFTG -

1. Andrew's candy drawer??

2. The fucking cheese drawer

3. Him driving Jean to his own dorm for the final Raven v. Foxes game

4. Poor Jean's breakdown there

5. Neil did not even bother mentioning that Jean wrecked their dorm 💀

6. The RUMOURS about Jean

but no, please let's just swing our feet, gaze at Andrew longingly, notice the way his hazel eyes seem aglow in the sunlight and the sturdiness and broadness of his shoulders and how much he can lift and the gold of his hair and—

(no really please do)

doodles the actual minyard-josten rivalry

Neil came in, caused general chaos. Gave the fbi agents attitude, ordered Thai and a hit, was ready to evade the fbi so Jean could grieve his little sister, framed a whole different crime family, and dropped Jean back home like nothing happened and I love him for it.

poor wymack is traumatized by neil's terrible clothing

neil got some hints about drake's abuse but didn't think it could become a problem in their current situation, and then he wished he would've acted sooner, before andrew got hurt again. He wasn't going to make the same mistake with jean, he got the hint about grayson's abuse and he took the first opportunity he had to wipe him out of the map, he wasn't going to leave anything to chance anymore if he could help it

neil josten, the man that you are

[operose-reblogs]

Too bad Andrew wasn’t there to see Neil make the fbi wait for him to finish his little drinky drink. He would’ve loved that shit

neil josten really saw aaron kill a rapist and was like, "hey i should do that" and then he did. twice. incredible.

in universe aftg memes are so funny it gets me every single fucking time just imagine liking a sport but it turns out the mafia is involved and riko moriyama is literally a psycho and his brother killed him and seth gordon fucking died and aaron minyard killed someone and neil josten's dad is the butcher and kevin day has never been skiing and jean moreau was kidnapped from the ravens and then there's jeremy knox

neil’s insistence on hiding his scars for as long as possible bc he knows it’s not normal and the foxes Will stare and ask questions vs jean just stripping in front of the trojans bc he expects his teammates to ignore his abuse since it isn’t their business... neil flinching from wymack's loud voice bc he doesnt trust men old enough to be his father vs jean holding his racquet out for rhemann to hit him after "failing" to do what he said he would do because he expects to be beaten to a pulp by his superiors and because "contrition, coach"... it makes me sick!!! i need to wrap them up in a warm blanket forever

[operose-reblogs]

Also,,,, Neil and Jean telling the FBI that they intentionally and willingly switched Neil's looks back over winter break bc "what's the worst that could happen? 🤪" like it was a boys will be boys moment sent me

[operose-reblogs]

Anyone else think wymack was probably panicking seeing his broken and batter fox LAYING on the middle of the court.

happy new year neil josten

Do yall think the waterboarding was related to the hair dye or just a fun little hobby of rikos?
