fic: clickbait
Written for @ilgaksu for the @aftgexchange, for the request "anything to do with media reactions to their pro careers/the MINYARD-JOSTEN RIVALRY" -- I had waaaay too much fun with this, turns out I could write a million words of fake media articles about these two???
Note: I used some of Nora’s expanded canon in regard to Andrew and Neil’s pro-careers; this is set right before Andrew’s second season as a pro, and Neil’s first. I took liberties with team names/locations.
[rated T for some mild swearing. Implied Andrew/Neil. 5400 words, epistolary/mixed media] I hope you enjoy reading!
It is fitting that Josten is set to don a Dragons’ uniform. Like his new mascot, Josten is a fire-breathing, relentless, somewhat mythical creature whose very existence seems larger than life. And Minyard is the perfect manifestation of a Cyclone; an inescapable, violent maelstrom of unpredictability, where your only chance of survival is to hunker down and wait out the storm.
What happens when a dragon battles a force of nature? That’s what we’re all waiting to find out.
