Have you guys ever think about Kevin calling Neil 'Captain' during sex and Neil almost coming listening to Kevin moaning the title into his ear while Neil fucks him?

'Cause I don't.

i dont go here anymore but since i left the fandom i became a runner and im training for a half marathon with a dear friend of mine, so i just want to give my 2 cents abt the comedy potential of kevin and neil going on runs together

ok so we know kevin doesnt like to run, he runs bc he has to run to play exy but nora has said he does not like it

and we know neil Likes to run, i can safely bet his ass would be the kind of person to enjoy running ultramarathons, let that man loose running for 8h straight and he’s set

so it’s also safe to say kevin’s cursing neil back and forth everytime neil says “we’ll stop at that tree right there” and then they Dont Stop, or when they’re running uphill for a while and kevin thinks they’re done with the stupid ass elevation until neil turns a sudden right and they’re going uphill again

and ofc kevin isn’t gonna stop before neil does let’s not be unreasonable, but he’s also not gonna let it go during night practice

also neil showing up to practice with random ass aches here and there like his right knee is his number One enemy, kevin shoving carbs down his throat when he learns neil is running distances and not fueling properly bc “you’re going to get injured >:(“ anyway…… running is so fun guys yall gotta give it a try

PSA for aftg fans

neil josten's name is N-E-I-L – E I, not NIEL

that means andreil is spelled A-N-D-R-E-I-L – E I, not ANDRIEL

and it also means kandreil is spelled K-A-N-D-R-E-I-L – E I, not KANDRIEL

on the other hand, nathaniel wesninski is spelled N-A-T-H-A-N-I-E-L – I E, not NATHANEIL

(i'm not trying to be mean, especially if you're doing this on purpose or if you don't care. i'm sending this just in case you don't realise you're doing it, bc it would bother me if i was doing it accidentally and no-one ever told me. also it makes posts harder to find when things are misspelled in the tags.)

A little kandreil doodle dump. Offloading my obsession to you.

[dayurno]

the difference between kevin and neil is that kevin has bunny animal neurosis but neil has predator delusions of grandeur

[daylightficfest]

As a good friend once said, have you ever gotten tired of Kevin Day getting everything he wants just because he is Kevin Day?

Do you think Kevin Day is too widely revered? Do you find the radiance of him too all-consuming; too hard to perceive, let alone fathom?

Then we are not the fest for you at all, because category is Night of a Thousand Kevin Days! Daylight Savings is a fan event focused around Kevin Day, where you will be able to submit and claim Kevin-related prompts or write one of your own.

Are you interested in making Kevin Day even more self-obsessed? If the answer’s yes, stick around to learn about our schedule in the upcoming days!

kevneil is so delicious to me because obviously there's exy and late night practices and kissing in the locker room after a thrilling victory but there's also the car ride home from that game and watching each other's interviews and protecting each other as viciously as need be and taking care of each other through injuries and the quiet understanding of the brutality of the Nest and those distant childhood memories. And there's exy, always exy, but there's everything beyond that, too.

Spoonie Neil headcanons (pt. 1/?)

Hey I decided to write this, and probably won’t be updating this headcanon series, sorry guys!! (You have to be logged into ao3 to read it)

It all starts when Abby jokingly says ‘and remember, the normal amount of pain is no pain’ as they get ready to start a game. He rolls his eyes at first, but then that night when he really thinks about it he starts to wonder to himself

Is the pain I remember having constantly from a life on the run and then a life of constant practice?

He takes a couple nights off of extra practice, making Kevin pissed at him, and Andrew silently concerned, but him pulling back in day practice as well has most of the team on edge for the week it keeps up.

On that Saturday he walks into Abby’s office and sits on her table, and looks her right in the eye and says ‘I have pain all the time. I have been in constant pain since I was a kid. I don’t know if it’s something my dad did, or if I’ve always been like this.’

She’s concerned. Duh.

They do some tests come up with 🤷🏼 it’s pain.

She asks Neil if she should tell coach or if she should, and he says he’ll take care of it.

He doesn’t.

He doesn't tell anyone and starts practicing hard again.

Except that now that he knows about it, it's harder to ignore.

The constant ache in his left hip and ankle that are just barely there, the way his fingers hurt after it gets cold, when he feels it down to his bones.

It's all harder to push to the back of his brain now.

Kevin notices first. (Andrew knows something is up, he just figures Neil will now tell him about it....) He notices Neil rubbing his left knee in the hall once, when he thinks he's alone in between classes.

He corners Neil before night practice, Andrew already in the goal, and them putting on their gear.

'you pushed yourself too hard, your injured, you don't play while injured' lecture.

'it's not an injury.' 'I saw you rubbing your knee, and limping. Stop Lying to Me'.

He ends up shouting it, 'Im always in pain'. He's so loud even Andrew stops what he's doing (swinging his racket around, practicing sick af spins).

They all stand there. not saying anything, Neil's panting even though he doesn't even feel out of breath.

'what.' Kevin says it in an icy voice.

'im always in pain, I have chronic pain, I don't know why, but I hurt all the time.'

Kevin is quiet. and then he says, Neil's worst nightmare, 'we're not practicing tonight.'

Neil hasn't shed tears since he was a kid, since before his mom knocked it out of him (literally), but he's close in that moment, taking off his gloves and throwing them on the ground/at Kevin, and stomping back into the lockers.

Kevin doesn't even say anything, just picks them up and Andrew walks out after them, having come close enough to the door to hear the conversation.

When they get back to the room, Neil just wants to be alone. But instead Kevin follows after him, and pushes him down on one of the bean bags.

'stay'

Neil's leg hurts too much to really argue, but he sits there stewing.

Andrew is staring at him fron across the room, he's sitting on his desk, and Neil looks at him, but he can sort of read Andrew's expression, and he doesn't like it, so he looks at the black tv screen.

the microwave goes off, and Neil almost jumps. he almost does again when the door to it is slammed shut.

Kevin comes back in the room, holding a heat pack.

He walks over to Neil, and drops down to his knees in front of him, 'which knee?'

Neil shakes his head, and presses his hand to his hip, and Kevin lays the heat pack over Neil's side, and Neil makes a quizical sort of noise, but then he sighs as it starts to ease the pain a little.

Kevin hesitates for a moment, his eyes flickers toward Andrew's direction for a second, before he sighs, and reaches up to ruffle Neil's hair.

'I'll teach you how to take care of it better, ok?'

Neil sighs, but nods, his hands curling in the front of his hoodie.

'We'll try ice for your knee, hows that sound?'

Neil just nods again.

he dozes to the sound of Kevin and Andrew discussing compression leggings.

they get them overnight shipped.

Kevin places both hands on Neil shoulders and stands him in front of Coach until Neil finally tells him.

'Yeah, so. Me and Abby figured out I have chronic pain.'

Coach nods, 'ok. That why you where late this morning?'

Neil cringes, 'no, Kevin got me weird leggings that seem to help.'

Coach pauses his watching of the rest of the team, and turns too look at Neil, 'when did you and Abby figure this out again?'

Neil, finally getting fidgety, 'uhh, last month.'

Coach pinches the bridge of his nose, 'ok, dipshit, I'll work on changing your routine now.'

the tension melts out of Neil's shoulders. Kevin sighs. David looks frustrated, 'did you think I was gonna bench you?'

Neil doesn't do anything, but Kevin nods his head.

David sighs, 'get back to practice idiots.'
