Istg i need to STUDY Neil Josten's brain. He asked a woman "what for?" when she requested his number. He didn't know Andrew loved him until the poor guy deadass offered to blow him. He didn't know that he loved Andrew until like halfway through THE THIRD BOOK, despite "Everything that matters" and "Welcome home, Neil" and "His life was out of his control now; he was giving it to Andrew and hoping Andrew would keep it safe." HE STUCK ANDREWS HAND UP HIS SHIRT IN FRONT OF LIKE EVERY SINGLE FOX AND WONDERED WHY PEOPLE THOUGHT THEY WERE DATING!!! i hate him.

"You don't look like a Nathan."
"I'm not. I'm Nathaniel."
Is the hardest quote of all aftg and I'm tired of pretending that IT ISN'T.
The power that it holds is honestly astounding. Shivers every time that I read it.

You just know when the US Court roster was announced and it was revealed that Kevin Day, Neil Josten AND Andrew Minyard were stepping on the court together for the first time since the Foxes, every other team going to the Olympics collectively went "Oh Fuck, we're screwed."

neil's sexuality is so interesting and complex, i love it so so so much. he doesn't swing. he has trauma from his mom trying to beat all interest in women out of him. he experiences a degree of attraction to women but doesn't feel anything kissing them. he jerks off sometimes and basically sees it as system maintenance. it never would have occurred to him to be attracted to andrew if andrew didn't bluntly say he'd blow him and then later kiss him. he doesn't think to initiate anything sexual, it just doesn't occur to him to do so, andrew has to cue him in and then he'll drop everything to make out. he still doesn't swing, it's just andrew.

andrew wakes up everyday smug as hell knowing he bagged the man who said he doesn’t swing. he knows he won the lottery of a lifetime.

Andrew wouldn’t be surprised at all, maybe a little disappointed but if the foxes asked what had happened for Neil to leave, he wouldn’t give them enough of an answer- either because he’s unsure of the reason himself or because he doesn’t care enough. The foxes would be devastated though, I’m sure Nicky would cry a bit. Aaron would not give a fuck. The upperclassmen would be upset and I think Renee would know or at least have an idea about what made Neil run. And Kevin would be annoyed he’d lost his striker prodigy
Is there a fic out there for after andreil’s first kiss, where Neil runs because he freaks the fuck out. (Idk what would happen after that i haven’t got that far in my thinking)

I just know that neil developed abandonment issues during his years at psu
just imagine this fucked up person that had absolutely no one for years, and before that it was just him and his kinda-complex-kinda-abusive relationship with his mom. then he goes to palmetto and finds a whole ass family that has his back and he would kill or get killed to protect them
I know that boy was so anxious and scared and lost every time someone graduated that he started spiraling bad

i think we as a fandom genuinely forget how kevin and andrew are literally like best friends. like andrew went with kevin to california. at the start of tfc everyone describes them as literally joined at the hip. if andreil ever got married KEVIN WOULD LITERALLY BE ANDREW'S BEST MAN. kevin will call andrew in the future when they're all graduated because he knows andrew will pick up. they had a single carry-on between them in tgr. they probably stayed in the same hotel room. they fight like an old married couple throughout the og trilogy constantly. kevin knows how to rile andrew up and to calm him down. nora can pry kandrew (romantic and platonic) from my cold dead fucking hands.

i just know aaron randomly called andrew's name and then didn't say anything when andrew appeared to see what he wanted. and i also know andrew occasionally showed up wherever aaron was to stare at him until he got annoyed then walked away. oh and andrew for sure kicked his foot up on the beanbag chair aaron was sitting on so his boot was right next to his head and didn't move it whenever he swatted at it and told nicky to make him put his leg down (as if nicky ever could) while andrew said "im not even touching you" and nicky who has no siblings said "well he's technically right, he's not touching you" while aaron fumed and andrew was smug. i also know that aaron used the "at least mom wanted me" argument multiple times right up until tilda died and then never used it again. andrew took great pleasure in walking into whatever room aaron was in while he was sitting/lying comfortably to cut the light on and then leave. aaron was delighted sometimes when andrew told him to get out of a room for the sole purpose of standing directly outside the threshold bc technically he wasnt in the room anymore. if andrew ever gave aaron any food, the first thing out of aaron's mouth was "what did you do to it" and andrew made sure to never answer. aaron, who was certain he was the most mature between them, would repeat things andrew said in a high-pitched voice until andrew threw various objects at his head. they were equally confused and appalled in therapy when informed that these things were not signs they hated each other, but were in fact the complete opposite.
