a kiss with a fist is better than none

relationships: neil josten/andrew minyard, kevin day & jean moreau, neil josten & jean moreau

A semi-heated rivalry turned marriage (only on paper though!)

Neil cleans some of the blood off with his left sleeve as he glares at the other. He’s lacking the manic smile from the last time they met. A side effect of the drugs, it seems. He watches him take a long drag of the fag. He watches the exhale of smoke. He watches Andrew stare back at him. Shaking his head vigorously, he forces himself back into the fight. He cannot be the only one bloody by the end of the night.

He launches himself and slashes at him, leading to a tear on Andrew’s cheek, enough to bleed slightly. Andrew taps the excess ash off the bud. He sends a look towards Neil before knocking the knife out of his hand expertly, gaining possession of it mid-air instead. He twirls around the auburn and pins him down onto a chair against the wall.

Neil’s breath hitches at the lightning moves. His heart beats loudly, but he tries to cover it up with a sly look. Andrew has a wry smile around the cigarette he holds between two fingers.

He positions the knife under Neil’s chin, lifting his head. “Giving up yet?”

“You think so lowly of me,” Neil remarks with a pout.

it's so funny and sad how jean thinks he's this unloveable thing meanwhile he's like the people's princess of the aftg universe. he won cat and laila over immediately and the rest of the trojans are completely obsessed with him. neil, kevin, and renee care about him so much and would do anything for him. andrew begrudgingly respects him and took his heavy-handed advice. thea calls him her little duckling. oh and jeremy knox is head-over-heels in love with him. he really is just that loveable

multiverse au + older Shane/younger Ilya

Shane slips into a world where Ilya is younger and doesn’t remember him (or does he?) A story of second chances, the price of first love and memory as a monster.

Hi, it feels really good to wrap up another wip. I am certifiably a lot crazier by the end of it, but that's okay. Let's all hold hands.

Releasing my loverboy andrew minyard so I can go work on sm else

andrew and neil never come out, they have no plans to. they’re private people but they aren’t deliberately trying to hide anything either. anyone who spends any significant amount of time with them will know they have a thing.

they play on the same team, insist on being traded together, fight opposing players on the other’s behalf, go home together, share an apartment and 2 cats… at some point andreil just becomes an open secret in the league. most hesitate to put a label on it, andreil won’t confirm or deny anything when asked, but it’s clear neil is andrew’s very special person and vice versa.

it takes a few years for the fans to catch on but when they do it becomes a bit of an inside joke of how close andreil are and how good of “friends” they are. gifs of the two circulate with regularity. one of them staring lovingly at the other when they aren’t looking, andrew checking out neil’s ass, teasing each other, sitting on the bench as close as humanly possible without being on top of each other.

idk just andreil being soooo obviously in love and obsessed with each other that even the dudest of sports bros can’t deny they are gay gay gay

Neil being a demisexual and how obvious it is by how he uses simple terms when meeting people like just saying their hair and eye color. He doesn't even bother describing people he doesn't find important. Meanwhile the difference between meeting Andrew for the first time vs him having fallen in love with him has Neil waxing poetry about Andrew and it's so funny. Miser i don't swing was down bad by the second book.

First time meeting Andrew: "Andrew Minyard didn't look like much in person, blonde and five feet even."

After falling in love with Andrew: "Andrew looked as he always had, and Neil knew his face as well as he knew every iteration of his own. Despite that, something seemed different. Maybe it was the sunlight streaming through the window, making Andrew’s pale hair shine brighter and his hazel eyes seem almost gold. Whatever it was, it was disorienting. A wordless question buzzed under Neil’s skin, leaving him restless and out-of-sorts."
