do you have more “non-dates” stuff Andreil does? i just love it. i’d eat this for breakfast lunch and dinner if i could.
oughhh yes i have SO many i'm so glad you asked
the scavenger hunt game i talked about here
they don't really decorate for holidays like thanksgiving (for obvious reasons), christmas or new years, because they're usually somewhere else visiting people. although they do have these two little fox ornaments with A & N on them that nicky and erik gave them one year, so they always hang those up. but they usually go up surreptitiously, andrew hangs neil's and vice versa, and without mentioning it there is a tiny tally chart scratched on the inside of the box the ornaments are kept in base
pictures, but not ones they take together. some of them are ones neil has taken of andrew, driving, smoking, sitting with the cats, making dinner, rocking one of aaron's daughters to sleep. others are andrew's photos of neil, him in the dorm back at PSU, laughing at something with a mug held in both hands in front of his face. neil from behind, standing in front of their bedroom mirror in his (then new) pro team gear. this is the only one where he seems to notice andrew's camera, because he's looking directly at it in the mirror. theres tons of these pictures on the wall in their bedroom, including their hands holding the key to their apartment, the cats as kittens, and a foxes group shot from the dan, renee, and allison's graduation. the picture in the very centre of the wall is the only one of the two of them taken by somebody else. dan's picture, of andrew and neil at the airport in texas. this is the original, the foxhole court stadium has a copy.
airport games, including but not limited to: making (inconsequential) bets on whether flights will be delayed or not, people watching, buying each other the weirdest gifts from duty free's they can find. points deducted if they got each other the same thing (happened once with a snowglobe from Chicago that was shaped like a pizza slice)
the 'points' system is entirely arbitrary and neither of them keep track at all, except for when andrew occasionally reminds neil that he's at negative eight hundred and sixty points.
drinking games with gatorade shots
closest thing they really get to actual 'dates' is trips to the store for pints of ice cream at around 3 in the morning. the store is usually empty at this point, and their favourite graveyard shift cashier is always there. they can carry what they buy, but they get a cart anyway so andrew can sit in it
one time they got one of those really fancy home espresso machines because they're rich and spent a whole day sitting in the floor drinking straight espresso. turns out that neil hates straight espresso and neither of them slept for like four days afterwards
the year after neil graduated, they both dyed bright orange streaks into their hair (which worked way better for andrew than for neil) and went to robin's spring championship final to cheer her on
they very deliberately celebrate the day AFTER valentine's day out of spite and also chocolate is cheap as hell on clearance
