remember when “looks like you’ve managed to completely embarrass yourself in both languages” and when “aaron said it was the worst day of his life” and when “aaron was faster […] he brought neil’s racquet up and around in an underhanded swing so hard and fast that air whistled through the right strings” and “he held onto andrew like he thought andrew would disappear if he let go” and when “‘get out of here,’ he said, and when luther didn’t move fast enough, he screamed, ‘get out of here!’” and when “i don’t care if andrew never speaks to me again. if i could bring him back from the dead and kill him again, i would” and when he said “i’m walking away and pretending i don’t know you” and remember when “you wouldn’t even look at me. you wouldn’t say a word to me unless i said something first. i’m not psychic, how was i supposed to know?” and “he shoved his racquet at nicky and dropped his helmet and gloves on the way to the cheerleaders” and when
Neil: I'm not lying, I swear on my life!
Andrew: I've seen your life, swear on something else.
Nora saying Neil would have stayed at the Nest for Jean. Jean and Neil both hating Betsy on sight. Neil and Jean both being sold to a higher family like a commodity. Neil gently taking the phone from Jean's hands and saying'I've got him coach' to Wymack when Jean starts to panic. Neil asking Kevin if Jean was okay when Jeremy called. Jean wishing Neil had stayed just so someone could be with him during the harshest times of his life. Kevin being sure that Neil will be helped by Jean. Neil giving Jean time to get it together when the agents arrived. Neil protecting Jean from his abuser. Jean silently cleaning up Neil's wounds and speaking to him in french when no can hear them. Jean asking Neil to tell him that Riko is truly gone and Neil confirming without a moment of hesitation. Jean and Neil both automatically resorting to saying they're okay—I'm fine, there's nothing to talk about—whenever someone asks them. Neil originally being a backliner just like Jean. Neil telling Jean it's okay to take off the tattoo. Neil reminding Jean he's worth saving. Neil looking over his shoulder out of instinct thinking Jean would be there near him. Neil being Jean's what-if. The 3 to the other's 4. A broken promise. The misplaced forever partners.
can you believe we get andrew falling asleep around neil for the first time like in canon. like that actually happens during neil's freshman year. andrew trusting him and feeling safe enough to sleep near him and then share a bed with him. not even just share a bed with him when neil grabs his arm andrew doesn't even have an averse reaction. like yeah they were both woken up by renee at the same time so it wasn't like andrew was asleep but he just. blinks at him. LIKE AHGUAAJHGFSHGUAHGU. exploding them with my mind.
my brain will forever be stuck on nora saying that in one of the drafts neil and jean would have makeout sessions in the nest
that one post thats like "uve tricked urself into liking urself through the fictional characters u love" hits different when u have an obsession with jean moreau and an assortment of severe trauma u dont wanna work through
I actually dont think Im going to get over jeans possessive "i wouldnt have given him to you if Id known you would just throw him away so carelessly" bc WHAT DO YOU MEAN?? Jean could have kept Neil. If he had really wanted to he could have kept Neil. Neil could have been his. His forever partner, his family, his friend, his lover, whatever but his. He GAVE Neil to Andrew. He allowed Andrew to take the thing he had fought for for so long. He was desperate for a forever partner. He wanted someone to be just his. He HAD THAT. He had Neil in his grasp, in the nest, and instead of keeping him he gave him to Andrew. He put Neil on a plane, hell he might have even gotten on the plane with him no one knows- but he got Neil back to Andrew, to wymack to the foxes and gave him away. He let Neil go so Neil wouldnt face the abuse Jean had. He LET Andrew have him. He gave away the one thing he wanted forever so Neil could have what he wanted. And some of you mfs are still out here saying Jean is heartless or he doesnt care abt Neil. Blasphemy if you ask me

Seeing Andrew from a perspective outside of Neil's is so fascinating because it really demonstrates just how quiet and detached from his surroundings he is. He fades into the background of Jeremy's POV especially, but Jean only notices him a bit more because he cares about Andrew's Exy career and his connection to Kevin and Neil.
Meanwhile when Neil is the narrator, he is sure to inform us of where Andrew is in any given scene and what Andrew is doing. For him, Andrew is the bright spot in every room, and when he is not present Neil feels his absence keenly.
Andrew also actively engages with Neil even when he's not speaking, through eye contact and fidgets and listening when Neil speaks. Pretty much everyone else (apart from Kevin) is ignored. Notice how, for example, the only time Andrew made a point to have a conversation with anyone in California was to ask Jean about Neil getting rid of Grayson.
It's such a brilliant way to show - not tell - how stupidly in love with each other they are.

Jeremy knox, worlds greatest french student: ☝️bedroom
How can Jeremy be an ex cocaine user, hated by all his family, blamed for his brother’s suicide, had his sexuality exposed for everyone in his freshman year and still be one of the most “normal live” characters cause his partner is a frenchman who was a victim of human trafficking and sold by his parents to a mafia and sentenced to years of abuse and torture in a sports team cult like in US
Everyone talking about andreil why is no one talking about Jeremy wanting someone to choose him for once and Jean choosing him over and over and over again. Why is no one talking about Jean wanting someone to see more than the court and Jeremy’s gaze finding Jean in every room. Why is no one talking about Jean going batshit crazy the minute someone so much as breathes wrong in Jeremy’s direction. Why is no one talking about Jeremy stopping Kevin the minute he started speaking angry French because he thought he was yelling at Jean. Why is no one talking about promise me you’ll protect him tomorrow. Why is no one talking about Jean’s angry they are not your partners. Why is no one talking about does it really matter? I’m only learning French for you. Why is no one talking about you and me against the world or Jeremy testing the easy way Jean took his weight without complaint . Why is no one talking about jerejean in their own trilogy oml
obsessed with the way nora wrote jeremy. avoidant narration style paired with bone-deep self-loathing and an outward perception of him as sunshine personified. drawing a sun in the sand, smiling into his coffee, "would it kill you to fuck someone who respects you?", stealing roses from his hookup, falling asleep behind the wheel, playing with a yoyo, coming back to the hotel with bruises around his neck, smiling "slow and satisfied" at his phone, not being able to focus on his lsat books, chronic fatigue, i tried to be good, am i no good? smoking outside the banquet, kissing jabberwocky, blaming himself for noah's death, jean's shitty reputation, zane's attack, handcuffed to a family that resents him, see-through smiles, writing down every time his father would call him, collecting speeding tickets in high school. jeremy knox i want to claw open your skull and dump the contents of your brain onto the page.
