#Misplacement Game

[myreputatioooon]

so it turns out the webnovels I'm reading belong to a genre that might just be my new favorite genre

[vellichor-lover]

Reading Jean’s perspective really is an experience bc he’ll call the love of his life “the golden captain” and then call Neil Josten a malfunctioning cretin, an unfulfilled promise, an abominable cockroach and his misplaced forever partner within two pages

"misplaced forever partners"

[let-them-sing-of-others]

misplaced forever partners

[bigtittygothgirlandrew]

This is less than a page apart he’s literally so ridiculous

[puemort]

So are we not gonna talk about Andrew stopping smoking bc he was not fast enough to reach Neil and protect him after Jean literally told him so??????

He stopped smoking for Neil.

"“You are an idiot,” Jean accused him. “You were barely fast enough to save him last time. The next time someone takes a swing at him, you and your brisket lungs will have to watch him die."

AND ALSO, ARE WE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE "I wouldn’t have given him to you if I’d known you would just throw him away so carelessly.”

MY FOREVER MISPLACED PARTNERS IM GONNA SCREAM.

There's so much to unpack here.

we listen and we judge

[andrew-dramaqueen-minyard]

the difference between Neil and Jean to me is that (for the most part) Neil is confident in himself and knows he deserves a better life (even if he thinks it’s not attainable) but he doubts that him and his exy skills are worthy of the court — whereas Jean is so confident in his exy skills and his worth on the court (he knows he’s great) but he does not think he deserves anything off it.

they truly are two sides of the same coin.

Starting Misplacement Game again after 70 chapters of I Became a God in a Horror game so I don't get bored of GHG and Misplacement Game isn't even 200 chapters long bruh I'm gonna have to find another webnovel to pick up to stave off my boredom 😭😭😭😭

In other news I've found the cure to dnf'ing

i love the little things jean’s learning from neil!! the “pop. how easily these monsters die in the end” line, the bit about how the rules have changed so he’s not accountable to the things beaten into him about sexuality, offering to kill someone for jeremy every five minutes,

[neiljostensracooninstinct]

I strongly believe that Neil will keep randomly appearing in Jean's life, just to check in on him every few months or so.

Like, even years after their graduation, at some point Neil shows up in the middle of Jean and Jeremy's date, and they'll be like: ??

And Neil: oh, you're still breathing. Great. Have a nice date, byeee

Oh, and vice versa.

But they'll never aknowledge that they care.

it was for him. winning against riko? it wasn’t for the satisfaction of seeing the other lose. it was because if riko was no longer first, then jean wouldn’t have to go back. jean got neil back home after the nest, and neil gave jean the opportunity to make a new one outside of it.

[codename-adler]

what if we made Jean and Neil kiss. on the mouth. and it was platonic. wouldn’t that be beautiful?

[palmettoshenanigans]

Hey. Hey guys. Don't make my mistake and think about what lengths Nathaniel would have gone to and what sacrifices he would have been willing to make to stop his Forever Partner from being assaulted in Edgar Allen. What Nathaniel would have been willing to do or go through to make it stop. Don't think about it okay? Don't make my mistake.

[the-sparrows-providence]

Neil is stone cold.

“He strung the noose himself when he came all the way here to put his hands on you, and I am not afraid to kick the stool out from under him.”

Absolutely chilling.

Jean didn’t even confirm anything. He just made a comment. A very obvious and telling comment. But still nothing explicit and not that much context.

But as soon as Neil heard it he decided Grayson was a deadman. With ZERO hesitation. Neil had a hit out with the MOB 20 minutes later. Grayson was dead by MIDNIGHT.

Neil you absolute icon but jesus
