[allforthepoets]

for all of you that are new here, these are my fics! (allforthepoets on ao3)

i'm completely open to suggestions (ie, any fic ideas or just things you want me to include in a fic) 😊

baltimore rewrite:

part one: https://archiveofourown.org/works/74620821 - When Neil is taken by his father in book 3, how Andrew responds (Andrew's POV of it)

part two: https://archiveofourown.org/works/77580281 - Andrew and Neil reuniting after Baltimore (Andrew's POV)

in any life:

childhood friends to lovers, except it's Andreil. (canon except Andreil meet 9 nears earlier)

part one: https://archiveofourown.org/works/75826666/chapters/198346571 - Nathaniel and Andrew meet nine years earlier, pre-canon timeline to when Neil is recruited by the foxes ('96 - '05)

part two: https://archiveofourown.org/works/77785351/chapters/203774856 - AFTG book one: Neil's first months with the foxes, some awkward introductions and a distinctive lack of exy.

part three (WIP): https://archiveofourown.org/works/80363221/chapters/211011841 - AFTG book two: Neil's identity has been discovered, yet, he still doesn't run. His life is on the line, yet he has so much to stay for - is it worth his life?

one thing about neil is that he's extremely calculated and genuinely does not give a fuck about 90% of people. and the 10% of people he Does care about he's still willing to manipulate and use for what he views as the best outcome (re: breaking a bone to heal it properly) and i think there's an instinct to downplay this so that neil can be the softer/less intense/emotional one to andrew's uncaring/intense/harsh demeanor bcus there's an obsession in our culture with opposites attract (re: heteronormativity) but it does their dynamic a huge disservice to ignore the Basis of andreil. which is the understanding they have of each other + their reasons + their reactions and how extremely similar they are.

hey guys... so i just watched 'i saw the tv glow.' how am i meant to continue on with my life when i feel completely hollow inside 😭 i wasn't ready for this revelation today

[allforthepoets]

just discovered a whole niche on ao3 of career ending injuries/disabilities and it's seriously ruined my day. just read a hollanov fic where shane becomes blind and i swear to you i am SOBBING.

I will never get over Kevin giving Neil such a disgusted look that it made the guy self conscious about his clothing choices for the first and only time in the series.

i don’t think shane would EVER reprimand ilya in front of their friends. there’s no “walking him like a dog” in the ottawa centaurs group. it’s the opposite, ilya is a spoiled little shit. shane only says no to him in the private and it’s rare. he’s an ilya’s enabler. he letting his husband do whatever and it’s not like is the worst cus not only ilya is an adult he’s very thoughtful, intelligent, respectful and professional. he knows there’s limits, he probably put it himself. so yeah fics with that tag is very funny is for hahas and hihis but i don’t think it would ever be canon

[allforthepoets]

lowkey makes me cry when people comment on my fics 😭 wdym you actually like what i'm writing? wdym you are waiting for me to update my fic? every time i see someone has given kudos or someone else has read my fic/s i genuinely jump for joy

[efflaurescence]

(visibly shaken) i’m so good at pretending im okay (everyone around can see it’s evident i am in extreme emotional distress and rapidly declining) im doing so good guys

[glossyberries]

i headcanon that when they go pro, andrew has a secret social media vehemently account defending neil.

like, imagine him sitting stone-faced next to neil, tapping away on his phone. neil probably asks him what he's doing, but andrew just says he's texting bee, and neil believes him.

someone tweets smth like: neil josten's play was sloppy asf 😭😭 what the hell was that

neiltruther310: i'd like to see your ass on the court 😂 weak-limped bitch who can barely hold an exy racquet calling the GOAT sloppy wtf are you ON you're on some fucking drugs 😂 your ass must be so jealous of all the shit that comes out your mouth 😂 don't ever let me see your sorry bitch ass in public or i'll stab you 😂

hollanov taking an after game interview together because of plot convenience reasons and ilya was chirping the opposing team about their first line points per game being barely scraping 0.4 when shane tapped his arm lightly and ilya leaned towards him. all the reporters perk up because omg are we gonna see shane hollander disciplining ilya rozanov live???? this is TEA. and ilya just nodded and said

“apologies, my husband wanted to correct that their first line pgp was 0.34. which was more pathetic than i originally assumed.”

[pxssionate-intensity]

Ilya and Shane, on top of being The Lovebirds Of All Time, are best fucking friends.

Shane is the #1 person Ilya gossips with. Since Shane isn’t the best on picking up subtext, all of the drama Ilya has to share is a complete surprise to him. Which makes him both the most entertained by the gossip and the most entertaining gossip partner.

Shane has an extremely dry sense of humor, and in public he’ll whisper deadpan commentary into Ilya’s ear while Ilya tries not to cry laughing.

Ilya has a very dark sense of humor that makes most people who hear it uncomfortable, but not Shane. Shane thinks it’s absolutely hilarious every time.

Ilya and Shane love to sit in the same room, do separate activities, and barely speak to each other. Shane will read a book while Ilya plays a video game, and one of them will have their feet in the other’s lap.

While everyone in the league thinks Ilya is a huge asshole, Shane thinks he’s hilarious. In fact, Shane usually agrees with Ilya’s chirps and will not defend anyone against them.

I just love the idea that they’re absolute best friends.

As someone with a horrible memory, and someone who is terrified to forget, videos and edits own my heart

famous exy player andrew minyard taking a picture of every awful horrible sugar-and-carb-filled meal he ever eats and posting it on his instagram story with kevin day tagged just to torture him

[allforthepoets]

listening to phoebe bridgers to get in the mood for chapter 4 🫣 two more chapters to go and i'm kinda sad. it definitely isn't the end of the series, but GOD i think i need a six month break after this 😭

https://archiveofourown.org/works/80363221 read my fic! (:

[evyltalks]

he wouldn't have left.

that's the problem.

if neil ran, andrew would understand.

if neil was hiding, andrew would find him eventually.

if neil was dead, at least there would be an answer.

but neil is just gone.

and what if i say that hollanov was never enemies to lovers opposites attract and actually it's two equals with unending respect for each other, falling in love at first sight, growing up next to each other, knowing each other completely and only falling more and more in love with each other - [GUNSHOTS]
