I have two fics that need to be found if you don’t mind. Fic #1 is a fic where Andrew is hurt playing and he is unconscious so he can’t give consent to Neil touching him so Neil won’t, and he won’t let anyone else touch him, later in the fic Neil says “I don’t touch him without his consent” and Aaron is like “oh” #2 Highschool au where Neil lives with the Moriyamas and the Minyards live with Bee and Aaron invites Neil over for dinner because they’re friends, Andrew kinda antagonizes Neil I think
i found the first one does anyone know the second?-Halley
