"Fuck you too", wise words from the almighty Kevin

[getyaheadinthagamejosten-blog]

Andrew tried to burn Neil's jorts one day, and the next morning, their entire room was covered in jean condoms, spread the word.

Another non-Aftg thing: Wayward Son talk.

Okay so what annoys me a lot is that a lot of fans are saying that Wayward Son was "too angsty", but I'll get to that later. Let's start with just my opinion on it:

I loved loved loved Wayward Son, yet I would give it only 3/5. I personally think that some scenes could've been written out a bit more (as I've mentioned on my instagram @ lovelikeabook), but generally speaking I loved it. It wasn't what I was expecting, but it was awesome. I loved every second of it.

Now that you know that, let's get to the angsty part.

Sure, Wayward Son was full of angst and missing the fluff we wanted, (BAZ ONLY CALLED SIMON "LOVE" ONCE CAN U HEAR ME SOBBING) but I think that there wasn't much else to expect when the main character is depressed. I loved how Rainbow Rowell portrayed the depression, as it is pretty accurate. Simon did not have any energy to do anything anymore, not even break up with Baz, He felt purposeless and wrong, etc.

I love how RR made me see that winning doesn't always equal happy ever after and that even after a big battle is won, little battles are still being fought Day by Day.

So yeah, we did not get a full book of Snowbaz being adorable, but instead we got a much more accurate version of the story.

Now as regarding their relationship (Snowbaz, obviously), I have a few points I'd like to talk about too:

Snowbaz was almost toxic in Wayward Son. I hate to say it, but it's true. Simon got jealous and overprotective, and Baz ignored Simon's opinion and most importantly, they did not talk at all. I'm pretty sure Baz has more dialogue with Penny than with Simon.

Simon feeling as if he owes it to Baz to touch him may be one of my favorite things because it is something that is very Toxic™, but also happens regularly to a lot of people, me included.

The way the story accurately depicts the way people act and are. Vampires being devils in the UK and rulers in the US, the way Simon frantically is searching for a way to be normal or mage, but not both, NextBlood trying to get best of both worlds but not wanting the bad sides, Shepard just trying to understand it all (Shepard ILY) and so many more...

Let's talk about how Baz is so stuck between himself; He comes to the US and finds a place were everyone is like him, and where, technically, He could live his best life. But he doesn't want to give up the other part of him, and is still frantically trying to push himself into another world. He gets confronted a lot with himself and he starts the long road of finding out who he is.

Of course I wanted more, of course I screamed when I found out the book ended like that, and of course I can't wait for AWTWB, but I think that RR wrote an amazing book that doesn't deserve the hate it gets.

I probably forgot a lot of things I wanted to say, but this is a start, no?

[getyaheadinthagamejosten-blog]

Not Aftg but here goes: has anyone noticed how on both the CO and the WS cover, Baz and Simon are present and have parralels (CO: both with a weapon, ready to fight) (WS: both without weapon, in a casual stance) (in both they face the fight/the problem head on), But the AWTWB cover doesn't? It only has Simon, and Simon has turned his back to us, as if he isn't facing the problem head on anymore. Also notice how his hand, the one not holding the sword, is formed into a fist, which, pared with the sword gives the feeling of anger. His tail is also pointing towards whatever he is facing, and the sword is sparkling. What if this means that he loses Baz, and that he can't face the problem head on alone, but instead let's anger and grieve take him over for revenge?

The way he has a sword again and the sparks on the sword give the illusion of magic and old times. What are you facing, Simon Snow? When will we know?

Edit: notice how, on the AWTWB cover, Simon's stance isn't a fight pose, but it isn't a relaxed, casual stance either. It's seeing the problem and wondering how tf he's gonna win but knowing he will and one that says "I'll win because I don't know how to lose"

Since it's coming out-day, here is my take on the foxes coming out to their team/Wymack (minus Neil and Andrew because they actually come out in the books)

Kevin; Kevin did it drunk, because he has trouble telling people things sober. It all started when he was on a big rant about Alexander The Great to Neil.

Kevin: (drunk) did u know that Alex the Great was damn Bi and an Icon just like me?

Neil: (who Obv knew he was bi) yes I did

Kevin: ur right That's a great coming out way Imma do it now

Neil: I did not say tha-

Wymack, at three am, opening the door to see his drunk son: wtf do you want

Kevin: I'm like Alexander The Great. Great, a guy, and bi. *blacks out*

Wymack: ... I'm letting him sleep there. *goes back inside*

Nicky; Nicky was extra as Fuck, obviously. Also it happened before the team was a real team or Neil joined.

Nicky, walking into the lockers: call me gay because I am

(The next morning Nicky's gear was new and rainbow colored, and tho coach would never admit it, He did it because he needed Nicky to have at least one parental figure who encouraged him to be who he is)

(the day after that he does a huge extra coming out thing because "it's part of being gay")

Renee; she did it on a normal way, not too extra or anything.

One morning, she decided she wanted to come out.

She redyed her hair, showing the lesbian flag.

She got compliments on it the whole day and weeks after that

Most people didn't see the coming out part, just thought it was pretty colors

But the most important people did and they supported her and that's all that mattered

Allison; I imagine her doing it after TKM.

She also had her way of extra

She actually came out in an interview, not long after Kevin did

It went like this:

Interviewer: so, what do you think Mister Day's sudden announcement, his Bisexuality?

Allison: it was very dramatic

Interviewer: does that mean you don't support him being Bisexual?

Allison: oh no, I would be a hypocrite if I wouldn't support him being Bisexual. In fact, I support him being bisexual very much.

Allison: it's him I don't support.

No one noticed until after the interview but the media went wild and she was the center of attention for a while again

Matt; Matt only came out to the foxes and his family, the rest doesn't matter and he doesn't hide it.

He just casually told them, making a comment insinuating that he's Bisexual.

Neil comes to him after the foxes chilled out and told him that he is proud and loves him.

Dan already knew, for years, and she actually also came out when when Matt did.

ANYWAYS THAT WAS IT (I did not forget Aaron, but I hc him straight) HOPE U HAD FUN

Someone: *ships Andrew/Drake or Kevin/Riko*

Me:

[allyreynclds]

Does anybody else ever feel worthless when they are hanging out with their friends? I know they care for me, but whenever I’m around them I feel like a plant decorating a room. Silent, filling up space and without no real purpose as to why I am there when it’s clear that nobody gives too shits about my presence and doesn’t notice my absence.

[allyreynclds]

And obviously I know that the answer to my problem is to ditch my friends and find new ones. But it’s not that easy.

[allyreynclds]

also apparently i never fucking learnt how to write two (2) so that’s makes me want to yeet myself into the void even more

[getyaheadinthagamejosten-blog]

I can relate so damn hard but it doesn't mean u are the shitty one

[minyards-pipedream]

Reporter: *asking about Neil and Jeremy’s alleged homosexual relationships with Andrew and Jean*

Jeremy: you know, great things cum in 3’s.

Jeremy and Neil: *fist bump*

Andrew: *slamming his cup of water down* first off, both of you are fucking bottoms.

Messy Kevin

Okay listen up motherfuckers it's 1 am and I was on my nightly thinking about Kev routine when I noticed how alike we are

I also concluded that, while he is such a perfectionist, he shall also be unorganized and fuck

Think about it

Opening Kev's drawer is like walking into a jungle and it is a frequent dare for the foxes "I dare you to find something in there"

And if you think his drawer is bad, gosh you haven't seen his notes

Most of his notes are obviously taken on his laptop, but I dare you to read them

Every three sentences, there's an exy comment

He'll always have all the necessary info, but he'll be thinking about exy as the same time

When you open one of his current history books, it's full of little notes and highlightings, but it does not have any obvious coding

He knows what each color means, but with that I mean that he knows and only he

"hey Kev I need a paperclip" "in my room, on my desk, five centimeters from the half chewed pencil that is laying in the top right corner"

Nicky found the paperclip

Kevin gets good grades, and his essays are always good, but boy oh boy his thoughts

He uses way to many exy methapors and that's because of trying to think of multiple things and failing

Once he focuses on something, he can do it (one track Raven mind) but he will do it in his way

He studies exy matches in random orders and no one understands it, BUT it makes sense to him and he's looking for something that he will only find it he watches it like that

Try and read his handwriting

The only letters he can write perfectly are "A, D, E, I, K, N, V, Y" because it's the letters of his name and he had to learn how to write a perfect signature with the Ravens

The rest of the letters are unreadable

Is that an "z" or an "q"?

Amalia 100% gets this personality trait. She is always the best, but the way to the top isn't an easy one.

Anyways I just decided that you can pry this hc outta my dead hands and I hope I made myself clear

Gn y'all wtf it's late

Jeremy: *squiggling in Jean's arms* Hiding!

Jean: ...do you mean hugging?

Jeremy: *pauses* did I fucking stutter.

Jeremy: this is my hiding spot.

Jeremy: Now put your arms around me and hide me!

[getyaheadinthagamejosten-blog]

Kevin: *to Neil* GET DOWN FRON THERE!

Neil: Never!

Kevin: Neil, I swear to god get down from the fridge or I'll go get Andrew!

Neil: Go ahead, I won't budge!!

Kevin: *sigh*

Kevin: ...I got exy

Neil: *slowly climbing down*

Neil: I wouldn't have budged for Andrew, just so you know.

Kevin: Sure

[getyaheadinthagamejosten-blog]

Dan: another place, another time, and we might have fallen in love...

Matt: ...

Matt: ... And that's one minute!

Andrew: choke you to death

Neil: kinky ;)

Neil pretending he doesn’t know what stuff is and the foxes can’t tell is he’s lying or not

What if Neil just,, trolls the foxes and takes advantage of the fact that they think he’s done very little in his life. So he pretends he doesn’t know what stuff is even if it’s really obvious.

It started when one of the foxes suggested they go bowling or something and Neil’s just like “what’s bowling” as a joke and they all FREEZE because Neil doesn’t make many jokes, especially unprompted ones like that, so nobody knows if he’s kidding and nobody wants to ask.

He then uses it as an excuse to get out of stuff he doesn’t want to do because it’s a surefire way to derail the conversation long enough for him to escape unnoticed as the rest of the foxes are trying to work out if he’s joking or not.

(The foxes only realise they’ve been Played after Kevin recounts the time he made the Very Bad Decision to burst into the dorm yelling at Neil that it was time for their night practice. Neil and Andrew were making out on the couch and Neil just looks Kevin dead in the eye and says “what’s exy”)
