#jerejeaneil

[stabbyfoxandrew]

sorry the jeaneil getting out of the nest and dating jeremy is really eating my brain please continue. like barely surviving and meeting jeremy who loves collecting birds with broken wings………. jeremy who barely pulled himself out of his family’s grasp to go pro and understands how they barely pulled themselves out of the ravens grasp……

YES YES You understand me anon! You and me are mind-melding right now!

Jean and Neil have been together for years. Ichirou has his Assets sign with the team closest to his business so he can keep them on a leash. Kevin is on his own leash, on a different team with Riko. :( Because I am evil to my precious baby.

BUT Jeremy is on Jean and Neil's team. He is not the captain of it (yet, he will be one day but he's too new to playing on a pro level) but he recognizes the brokenness of these two ex-Ravens. Jean and Neil are one entity, but Jean has had a crush on Jeremy for years. And Jeremy will not leave them alone. (Not in a creepy way but in a sort of overbearing friend way. He wants them to be alright and he can tell they are very much not.)

Like okay, in canon we see how Jean reacts to being out of the nest and getting to be a Person for the first time. This would be double as bad because there's two of them, both horribly socialized except for their little bubble of codependency. (And Kevin, of course.)

But Jeremy is friends with Kevin and he's never acted like Jean or Neil. This is so weird to Jeremy. But Kevin has had the press training. He knows how to pretend. These two... they do not. And they don't care to learn. They do not mingle with their new teammates. When there is downtime at practice they only speak to one another, in French. Which Jeremy starts trying to sneakily learn a bit of. When he tries it out on them for the first time he's met with twin icy stares. He apologizes for butchering the language and Jean is like "It actually wasn't terrible" but Neil says "Don't speak to us at all." (Don't say the word 'butcher' around him, Jere. </3)

And Jeremy is like "Okay... Great. See you later then." And goes home, lying in bed that night like 'well I fucked that up real good :('. Jeremy is far from all his old USC friends and his family doesn't want him anymore— he made sure of that and got the fuck out of California, hardly looking back. So he acts really happy but he's so lonesome it almost kills him.

Perhaps one day a few months in Bryson shows up outside their stadium, having at last been cut off from Mathilda's money, and he wants to mooch off Jeremy— who's making Pro Money. And he won't take no for an answer. Until Jean and Neil come around the corner and Jean waylays the motherfucker, throwing him onto the hood of his and Neil's shared toyota. Neil pulls a knife a second later and says something in French to Jean.

"Who is he, Jeremy?" Jean asks and it's the very first time he's said 'Jeremy' and Jeremy is floating outside of his body. But he tells them it's his brother, while Bryson struggles to breathe with Jean's hand around his neck. The word 'brother' means very little to either of them, because they grew up with Riko and Kevin's horrific display of 'brotherhood'.

"Do I need to kill him?" Neil asks, as if asking if he should make a pot of coffee. Jeremy tells him no with a frantic shake of his head. And Jean throws him off the car onto the pavement instead.

"Get the fuck out of here and never come near Jeremy again. Next time I will let Neil gut you. And by the time they find your body, there will be nothing to identify." Jean tells him. Bryson exits stage left, getting in his car and speeding away like his life depends on it— it does. And Neil puts his knife away. The two ex-birds start to get in their car. To leave. To just LEAVE after possible saving Jeremy from getting the shit beat out of him.

He stops them. Asks if he can go with them. He doesn't know if he can drive right now, the nerves. The two share a look and allow him to come. Jean and Neil's apartment is tiny but efficient. It looks more like a dorm room than an apartment fitting two grown men. Jeremy is like "You guys are modest, huh?"

"It is more than enough." Jean tells him. Neil says something to Jean and makes himself scarce. (Neil knows his partner is into Jeremy. He doesn't mind too much. Especially know that he knows Jeremy is the human equivalent of a CareBear and won't hurt Jean.)

Jeremy rambles a little about his backstory, Jean tells him he knows— when they got together Kevin gave them the Jeremy Coke Orgy Articles and Neil read them to Jean, eliminating the need for him to muddle through all that offensive English. Jean knows what happened and Jeremy mentions that Bryson is the reason he was on drugs in the first place.

"Then you should have let us kill him." Jean says. It is not said as a joke, but Jeremy laughs anyway. It's a pathetic, sad little laugh. Then he tells Jean about Noah and Jean's heart hurts. His baby sister is lost forever, as is Jeremy's brother.

"I can't lose another one. Even if he's like that." Jeremy says and Jean sees the broken version of Jeremy he usually tucks away.

"Stay with us tonight. In case your brother knows your home address." Jean offers. Jeremy accepts and stays a little longer than he needs to. Eventually he ends up asking them to just come and stay with him instead. And they do.

Jeremy's place is huge. Neil thinks it's ridiculous how much space one man has got but Jean feels like he can breathe in his place; it's big enough that he doesn't feel out of place. He's not claustrophobic here.

But there is a new problem: Jeremy's partners. ("They are not your partners.") After they're in his space, Jeaneil see how Jeremy lets himself be treated and decide that has to stop. Fucking immediately. They take him out somewhere decent or maybe to a movie. Basically it is a date but Jeremy has no idea he's being wooed. And before going to their room Jean tells Jeremy "It could always be like this" and kisses his cheek.

Jeremy's hand comes up to cover that tingling spot on his face and he has his "Oh." moment. Which he immediately messages the floozies about.

Anyway, broken birds and discarded soldiers. And Kevin eventually slips his leash too. Possibly because Andrew Minyard happened to sign with his team and kill Riko. You know, just goalie things. <3

This got so long. Anyway! If I had the braincells I would write a 100k of this. Because I have not known her long but I love this AU now! (I literally just wrote it in the last like... hour. And I'm in love. TWT)
