#except Neil

[tankuare]

I love the AFTG characters and their silly interest like Andrew canonically likes to watch musicals with Bee, Kevin is down bad for history, Neil thinks math is fun. They’re just so human I love them

[floretissogay]

if aftg was narrated by literally anyone but neil, my queen allison reynolds would get a LOT more screentime that's for sure

[talesofthedm]

Almost all the main VAs (and some of the lesser known too!) are streaming their first BG3 plays and I love it when artists love the art as much as the fan base

[joejhang]

one thing about me is i LOVE outsider pov neil josten. maybe even more than his pov. never has any protagonist ever manic-pixie-dream-girled the way outsider pov neil josten manic-pixie-dream-girled. he's a little insane and feral and unpredictable and has a pretty face and a mysterious past and mafia connections. everyone fucking bends over backwards for him. he's just so ineffable.

[inafieldofstarflowers]

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

[inadvisablebutinevitable]

I love social media AU’s SO MUCH but I also like the idea of the AFTG characters as millennials discovering social media in their mid to late 20s and getting all this internet fame and attention AFTER they get famous. Mainly because I like the idea of 30-something Jeremy in 2020 discovering TikTok edits of his husband and getting SO EXCITED and leaving supportive comments on each one, and 30-something Jean seeing edits of his husband and getting EXTREMELY pressed because that is JEAN’S MAN and NO ONE ELSES.

I also like the idea that as Neil first goes pro his teams keep him as far away from interviews as possible and he doesn’t have to deal with Raven fans anymore so he kind of loses his whole “Neil Josten PR menace” reputation. But then twitter becomes a thing and all of a sudden a whole new generation of Exy fans—as well as the entire internet—have unlimited unfiltered access to Neil’s Insane Thoughts 24/7.

Plus Gen Z in the 2020s discovering late 2000s foxes lore for the first time bc of a TikTok deep dive and all of a sudden all of the (mostly retired) foxes are the #1 trending thing on all platforms YEARS AFTER they finally got over everything

“one of us has to make it” and it’s mary and neil “one of us has to make it” and it’s neil and kevin “one of us has to make it” and it’s kevin and jean “one of us has to make it” and it’s andrew and aaron

[dykekarkat]

secrets as intimacy...neil lying just to see the way it makes andrew's lips twitch...putting on a show bcus he knows the only person who really sees thru it is andrew...this is basically like having sex in public if you think about it....

[chaos-interwoven]

neil josten definitely picks at his scabs. and it annoys aaron to no end. imagine that aaron just starts swatting at his hands whenever he tries to pick at scabs because he can’t deal with neil having them for any longer. and andrew just lets him because he knows it’s better if neil actually lets his injuries heal and honestly, it’s funny

[grooviestguru]

you know what I find wild? neil josten, alone for the first time ever after mary dies, enrolls himself in SCHOOL. like he could’ve gone anywhere, done anything he wanted that does not include finishing an american public school education, and yet that’s exactly what he did?? what an inspiration i guess??

[kevinsdsy]

[palmettoshenanigans]

Andrew said no Christmas or Birthday gifts. Fuck that noise. No.

Alright. Works for Neil. Because it's not Christmas. And it's not Andrew's birthday.

(Andrew realizes his partner is a fucking lawyer is disguise and he's disgusted that he now has to make his statements loophole resistant)

Except... maybe he doesn't. Because the ice cream machine sitting in their kitchen is black, expensive, with a variety of functions and knobs and whachamacallits galore. A veritable contraption that turns whatever he can throw at it into ice cream, and he doesn't even have to leave the house.

And yeah, maybe the smug grin Neil sports as he death glares stares at it makes Andrew want to punch him, but the plethora of random ingredients littering the counters - "experiments" Neil reasoned - makes him want to kiss him instead. So...

He'll forgive the loophole exploitation.

Just this once.

[joejhang]

my favourite bits of the unhinged kandreil draft snippet

honestly this is a goldmine of insane moments. love nora for this.

THEIR BANTER THO

good to know neil's always been a cunty diva

[pip3dream]

i love how Aaron and Neil don’t hate each other because of their origin or because they’ve both killed people but instead hate each other because they’re in each others business and neither likes it
