I was watching my brother play xbox when I realized... professional sports teams have video games. With avatars that look just like the players and have their stats. Sooo professional exy teams could have a video games.. and when Neil and Andrew went pro they would see their little video game selves
okay so listen:
andrew never pays attention to literally anything going on with his exy career
like seriously? he goes where they tell him and does what he’s contractually obligated to do
so when he had to wear a weird suit and pretend to block a bunch of fake shots he thought it was probably some weird form of monitoring his health or muscles
of course he doesn’t tell neil about it in their nightly skype calls becuase it’s unimportant in his mind
unknown to andrew, neil also did the same thing but doesn’t much care for video games so he also says nothing
basically a literal day after it’s happened they’ve both forgotten about it
but then the game comes out
and everyone starts tweeting them about it
and making funny vines with 6-foot whatever kevin day being checked by 5′0″” andrew minyard
(it’s probably some thing where you can just like assign the players any position for fun idk)
neil picks up on it an favorites a bunch of videos on twitter
(poor boy didn’t know other people could see his likes)
and of course matt calls neil the day it comes out
“neil! you didn’t tell me we’d both be in a video game together?!? how sick is that! you totally have to come over and play, bro”
basically neil loves it because he gets to play as andrew and ends up mimicking him as he does it
“my names andrew and i squish garbage in the can until it’s too full and i refuse to take it out”
“hey guys, watch out! i have the ball and i’m not afraid to beam it at your ankles if you look at me the wrong way!”
“i’m andrew and i pretend to hate the cats but wheni think neil’s not looking i make kissy noises at them and hold them in my arms”
“neil’s bothering me so i’m going to pretend he’s a vegetable and pretend he doesn’t exist”
of course andrew catches him doing it one time when neil thought he was home alone and was playing online with matt
(he was home alone but had jumped into a monologue as andrew and was too distracted to hear him walk in for his weekend visit)
of course andrew decides to get him back by doing the same thing as neil
“my name is neil and i’m an idiot who has no self preservation”
“watch out kevin, i’m here to steal your one true love away, the court”
“did you guys know that i leave my socks all over the apartment becuase that’s where they belong?”
it definitely turns into a way for them to get out their petty aggression on one another
and if one of the foxes just happens to post multiple videos of it online and create a small phenomena, then that’s between them and the thousands of views
