This whole interaction:
Nicky:please be gay
Aaron: please don’t bother me (please be straight)
Kevin: please be Exy
Andrew:
The fact Aaron even said anything meant he was desperate for Neil to be straight…..sucks to be you Aaron but your brothers got the Medal.
omg.
hey hold on a sec. we talk about what baltimore was like for kevin, neil, andrew, but can we talk about wymack for a second. Can we just.
the year before the twins and nicky signed at psu, two of wymack's foxes, ian and kirk, died in a car crash.
the next year, kevin day broke his hand and went to wymack, the only person he thought would keep him safe.
the year after that, seth gordon, the only surving member of wymack's original lineup, overdosed after he was so nearly clean, and it almost destroyed allison.
months later, andrew was attacked in columbia and committed to easthaven. aaron killed someone. andrew was gone and the others came back shattered.
then neil claims to go home for the holidays, they don't hear from him all of christmas break, and on new years, neil calls him and asks wymack to pick him up from the airport. he's there instantly and god, he looks half-dead. neil sees the 4 tattoo and tries to cut it off his face. all he can say is that he didn't sign to the ravens.
then there's the blood in the locker room. wymack can't push away the feeling that something's getting closer, something is coming to hurt his foxes and there's nothing he can do to stop it.
then. the game at binghamton. neil looks on edge but wymack doesn't ask what's wrong. neil and andrew are above his paygrade. then the riot. he can't see any of his kids in the crush. he finally pulls them all out, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight–
neil's gone. neil's gone and they can't find him. andrew can't find him. neil got taken by someone. what was that like for david wymack? did it feel too familiar? did he look at his kids and think not again, i didn't lose another one again. does it ever scare him. does it terrify him. when aaron came back from the police station in columbia, twenty four hours in holding and he couldn't look wymack in the eye, did he think what if i can't save these kids? when andrew was lying in a hospital bed, too drugged to react, did he think what if i can't give them their second chance? when neil grabbed that knife, when he fell to pieces on wymack's kitchen floor, when he came back to them in baltimore, bloody and broken, did wymack think why am i always too late?
Headcanon Neil josten will never run out of insults to spit at someone. He knows like 5 different languages, so if he runs out of curse words in one language he’ll switch to another and start all over when he’s chewing someone out. For any particular reason.
Seth and Abby LMAO!!!
I saw a video on TikTok showing two foxes fighting on a roof then later it showed the same foxes curling up on the roof under some branches cause it was raining stealing glances at one another , on opposite sides. It reminded me of Neil and Andrew
Me with the entirety of the AFTG series
you know how it is
Champagne coast was definitely playing in that one scene on the bus where Neil noticed how Andrew’s eyes went gold at a certain angle.
Neil is the most unserious character like what do you mean you develop a secondhand nicotine addiction purely because you want to remember the smell of your moms burning corpse
A crossover I really need to see is , The apothecary Dairies and All for the game .
I feel like MaoMao would hit it off with the Minyard Twins
Allison and Renee with Gyokuyou
Nicky would bother Gaoshun
Kevin would be at Grannies brothel
*Mic drop
Neil “Dan I said please I tried to be nice” Josten.
He did in fact say please not once but twice Dan.
The Raven King, Chapter 6, Page 83 is my favorite page in the whole series.
