Neil: *panicking*

Andrew: ugly

Hey, y'all wanna cry with me?

Nicky was sent to a conversion camp, yes? Like, in full if I remember canon correctly. "Graduated" and everything. Y'all realize the kinds of abominable horrors conversion camp puts kids through? Nicky's trauma probably comes less from being disowned at that point.

His parents sent him to Hell. They only disowned him bc Hell didn't work.

They all have nightmares. Andrew goes blank and stone faced. Neil runs runs runs.

Nicky smiles.

Nicky, texting Renee: Renee! Help I’m being kidnapped

Renee: Where are you?

Nicky: I’m with some strange person. In a car. Help.

Renee: I’ll call Kevin.

Kevin, answering his cell: Hello?

Renee: Where’s Nicky? He texted me that he was being kidnapped.

Kevin: Nicky? What do you mean, he's right next to me-

Kevin:

Kevin: I’ll call you back. *hangs up*

Kevin: THE NEW HAIRCUT ISN’T THAT BAD!

Nicky: WHO ARE YOU?!

Nicky looked at Neil. “Hey,” he said, sounding uncharacteristically hesitant. “We haven’t really had a chance to talk after… Well. I wanted to say sorry, but I kept chickening out. Are we okay?”

“I don’t know yet,” Neil said. 

Nicky weighed that for a minute, then sighed and said, “Fair enough.”

Hell yeah look at Neil acknowledging and talking about his complex emotions

[foxes-evermore]

our boy matt is like a year behind the girls right?? so there’s a whole year where it’s just him and Andrew’s lot (and the freshmen) and yeah come on I know he’s an actual puppy and tries to get along with the newbies but like,,, you know there’s that /one/ snide remark or eyeroll from that one freshman that finally sends him over the edge and into the boys’ dorm. Everyone looks up. “What the fuck do you want,” Andrew asks. Matt says nothing. He falls into the beanbag that Nicky offers him and resigns himself to the fact that the monsters are his new squad for the rest of his university life. Monster Matt.

sometimes i forget that kevin day’s mom literally INVENTED exy... like no wonder?? he’s so obsessed?? with it??

[butallmystars-deactivated202410]

Ok ... this has not left my mind all night !

i think nicky is one of those people who constantly makes up little songs about all the mundane tasks he is doing

like if he is folding his socks u bet ur ass he'll accompany that chore with a lil song about it !

and usually the foxes will know what nicky is doing purely thanks to his belted accompaniment

“🎵taking out the traaaaaaash, im taking out the traaaaash🎶” “oh thanks nicky!”

and at some point this extends to whenever he see's the foxes doing something, or just ... generally existing

neil: *is making eggs*

nicky: 🎶neeeils doing his thing in the kitcheeeen ! he's cooking up a stoooorm🎵

it always leaves neil a little bemused

and it becomes kind of nickys habit

kevin is like trying to watch exy replays with neil but nicky spots them & hes all

“🎶keeeevin is watching exy, the spooort that keeps him aliveee🎵” whilst kevin swats at him like a fly & neil regards him with barely concealed amusement

and sometimes he sings about situations that shouldn't really be sung about

our beloved nicky hemmick and his tendency to put his foot in his mouth<3

like when they were at edens this guy kept getting into neils personal space

and neil eventually gets him to back off but andrew was a breadth away from simply slashing the guys throat

and the energy is tense and everyone is a little on edge

and our darling nicky just “🎵andreeeew was about to stab that guy and give him a big ouuchieee🎶”

andrew blinks at him flatly and nicky throws up two hands in a surrender

for the most part though his singing is just a sweet natured habit

sometimes matt joins in when he's around too!! it is usually just the two of them singing their praises for neil or dan

dan always wonders if this is something they rehearse and how they immediately fall into the pattern of just knowing these very specific lyrics

“🎶daaan is the baddest bitch, bitch (affectionate), she's nooot a bitchhhh🎵”

and one time aaron is studying for this massive exam and he is stressed out of his mind and nothings fucking clicking because all he can think of are nickys god damn little songs and wait .....

aaron: nicky. i need you to do. the thing.

nicky: 🎵deeeeerivatives apply the properties of limitsss, to looking at the raaate of change of a function or vaaariable over time🎶

and if aaron gets an A that is literally his business

nicky sings most of renees songs to the tune of hallelujah and renee finds it brilliant

“🎶renee waaaalker, renee waaalker, renee waalker, i love you, i love you, reneee🎵”

nicky tried to sing a song about allison once and it ended with allison critiquing his voice and nickys heart cracking in two

“🎶allison looks so goood today, i love your dresss, you are a baaabe🎶” “aw thanks nicky, you were a little flat on that second line though”

it's after a foxes win that nickys habit truly comes to fruition

it was an away game and they're on the coach home and everyone is sleepy but they’re all too wired to rest because they won !!!

and nicky has been humming this song under his breath 🎶foxesss winn cause we don't know how to lose, foxes runnn cause we’re always on the move🎵

and it makes ? absolutely no sense???

but its so catchy damn it

and matt can't help but start singing along with him and then dan does and renee is giggling and joining in too

and neil grins and he's like why the fuck not i'm all for team spirit and kevin looks up from his notes with a shrug and he's all ok cool so this is what we're doing now

and aaron and andrew are in a staring contest, the unspoken question of Who Will Break First hangs between them

but nickys songs are powerful and one of them is bound to fall victim to it's catchy cadence

(it's aaron, but andrew isn't far behind)

and maybe andrew only joined in because he wanted to see how everyone would react

and maybe he isn't technically singing and instead deadpanning the lyrics, but

nicky doesn’t care because everyone is joining in with his thing!!!!

and wymack is up front like ??? what the fuck are they doing ?? is this – actually ... you know what ? above my pay grade. not my business.

i just think nicky hemmick <3
