Neil isn’t trying to be funny and Neil doesn’t know he’s funny

Drugged Andrew is trying to be funny and Drugged Andrew knows he’s funny. Sober Andrew isn’t trying to be funny and Sober Andrew knows he’s funny

Jeremy is trying to be funny and Jeremy isn’t really sure if he’s funny

Jean sometimes tries to be funny and Jean knows he’s funny

Kevin has never tried to be funny in his entire life. Exy isn’t a joke. Step onto the court, what do you see?

hard of hearing neil who, thanks to an explosion of the car mary's body was in when he lit it on fire. he doesn't know how to navigate a disability this significant. it's trial and error, and boy does he make a lot of errors.

wearing hearing aids accidentally tells nathan in which ear he's vulnerable and what to look out for. it paints a bigger target on his back. not wearing them means living on higher alert--even more than he would be. he messes up, and he messes up bad.

he's lonely, he doesn't know what to do. he's alone for the first time and at his most vulnerable. he'll continue, but only because it's the only thing he knows.

later, after all the messes unravel and everything happens, for the first time, he lets himself relax with someone. it's andrew, who else would it be? he lets his guard down, trusts andrew to have his back if need be.

in this universe, he choses to not wear hearing aids at all, afterwards. trusts that either andrew or one of the foxes have his back, or that he can communicate without issues. the foxes make it happen, and andrew & neil learn ASL to communicate even better (in between neil's hearing issues and andrew's selective mutism, it makes sense that they would do this. i also think just learning languages is a bonding activity for them anyway lol)

for ur kevneil stalker indulgence: kevin dismissing a vague question at some point during evening team practice and neil barely reacting but by night practice is clearly agitated. takes almost blowing his shoulders out on andrew's goal again for kevin to get a near-spat that's not when you got that scar and to be momentarily caught off guard before doubling down on how dare You of all people be offended by a lie? and why the fuck have you been keeping tabs? feeling deeply uncomfortable in a way he can never acknowledge so has to cling to the reasons for neil's obsession and place his worth in exy once again but it feels less defensive when he knows that's why neil's watching Now. getting up in his face nonetheless, the squaring up to be mitigated only moments before physical violence by kevin's irritation at a thick tobacco smoke blown in their direction. or something. hold on i need to exit this go back to your post that prompted it and reevaluate where is the exit bu

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!

I love the idea Kevin slowly realizes how fucked and obsessive Neil was about him (Hero worship and jealousy and the what if of a whole other life) and then being freaked out because it feels good to have someone fixate on him like that. He spent more than half his life as the center of Riko's entire world (negative), it almost feels like coming home to have someone know him so well and so intimately.

They're winding each other up all night and Neil cannot keep his eyes off him, and Kevin is about to cancel night practice until Neil FINALLY snaps like you said. It pours out of him and Kevin is like ??? because he barely remembers that scar. Who cares!! But Neil is so obviously upset and pissed about it and each time he checks him after it there's teeth.

And Andrew "Has known about the stalker binder for well over a year now" Minyard is just watching.

Usually they get it out of their system but it lingers for days afterward and Kevin begins peppering Neil with questions about himself. About himself after leaving Edgar Allan and yep, he knows that too. Some of it there's an explanation, "What shampoo do I use?" "What cologne is my favorite" because they have been living in each other's pocket for a year. But what about "How did I lose my molar?" "What's my blood type" etc etc

And of course things have to eventual break and it's Kevin being bent over the edge of his bed and Neil rutting against him talking about what it was like to watch him live a life like he did. His anger over him settling for second when Neil always knew he was better than Riko. That he records this all too, the angle Kevin likes to be jerked off, the tilt of his hips to make that sound, it all goes into a journal tucked away somewhere. As memorized as Kevin's stats from his debut year to what flavor he likes at Sweetie's (pistachio.)

And of course, as always, Andrew is watching.

so you know how Andrew likes to do small gestures without really saying anything.

it's five years since Andrew graduated and Neil is still not over Kevin moving to the opposite side of the country half a year ago. And if Neil starts finding newspapers with Kevin Day articles around their shared flat it doesn't actually mean anything. even if he finds exy and foxes themed stickers in his drawer it's... whatever.

there re some new photos attached to their fridge door, shiny selfies Neil s never seen before, some landscape photos, meal snaps. they feel personal, too, like they were meant for someone who specifically asked for them, Kevin's smile on his selfies is always tired but real and familiar.

it's strange that there're two copies of each photograph, as if someone wants the other copy to disappear, because why would you need 2 of each in the same place, it's ridiculous. and for some reason they disappear one by one, so nobody can notice the change. the fridge door looks more empty every morning and Andrew stares at the vacant place with a smile too gentle and satisfied to be fake. whatever.

PSA: Neil always sleeps in between Kandrew bcs 2 times out of 3 they’ve got a quiet but oh so vicious argument going on that neither will make an effort to resolve so they put Neil in the middle as a sort of mouthy barrier but if [Neil] is the one that’s arguing with one of the other two then 10/10 times he will run said mouth off until whichever other half finally rolls to face him and they start ‘making out to make up’ SO strongly that the third wheel can only stare & appreciate the sight; never interrupting and simply hoping that Neil starts (& resolves) another argument again soon and that this time, it’s with them xo

..imagining the floozies at the beach which jean puts on a bit sunscreen jeremy looks at him (..and his extremely pale complexion) and offers to rub some on his back, jean declines (..mostly because he doesn’t think he could handle jeremy’s hands on him) and is firm that he’ll be fine

later when jeans harsh back sunburn sets in it’s obvious that he’s in pain and jeremy offers him a solution

jean is laid on his stomach with jeremy sitting on top of of him massaging cool aloe vera into the hot skin jeremy laughs a little teasingly, “maybe next time you’ll listen to me”

jean just grumbles into the pillows embarrassed that he was wrong, that jeremy putting sunscreen on his back for a minute was much better than jeremy massaging him for 30 minutes while he struggles to calm himself down

[arbreboy]

at work thinking about jeremy going feral and full of adrenaline after a winning game and having the greatest riding of his life while jean only lets him take take and take

if andreil adopted a baby andrew would fucking love falling asleep on the couch with the baby asleep on his chest

Neil emerges from beneath the water, slicking his soaked hair back before swimming over to Andrew, who sits at the pool’s edge with his legs dangling in the water. Resting his damp head in Andrew’s lap, he immediately feels Andrew’s fingers thread through his wet curls while Neil slips his arms around Andrew’s waist. “Coming in with me?” Neil asks, tilting his head back just enough to catch Andrew’s gaze. he watches those brown eyes darken ever so slightly. Andrew is used to seeing Neil look up at him from beneath lowered lashes, although in a very different context, and, much to his annoyance, his eyes always betray him first. “Go swim,” he says simply, giving Neil’s shoulder a gentle push away from him. Neil lets out a quiet laugh as he drifts back to what Andrew considers a perfectly safe distance, leaving him at the edge of the pool to watch Neil carve another lazy lap through the water, giving the blond a few peaceful minutes to catch his breath.

imagine you work at a luxury car dealership. two college kids show up in a shitty rental car one day. one is has facial tattoos and the haughty attitude of a famous person. the other is a dead-faced goth the size of an elf. tattoo boy says they’re here to buy so you humor them and show some cars. elf man doesn’t say a word the whole time but clearly is calling the shots. he points at a Maserati and says he’ll be paying for the whole thing, no financing necessary. then he goes back over to the rental car, where evidently there has been a whole person asleep in the backseat the entire time. this man is about the same height as the goth pixie and dressed like a homeless person. he listens to the goth say something, pulls out several wads of cash, hands them over and goes back to sleep. your boss spends the next hour walking these freaks through the paperwork while you count through what turns out to be nearly 100k in cold hard cash. no one explains a goddamn thing and they leave with the nicest car on the lot

andrew giving neil impossible challenges in bed bcus he likes seeing him determined to win and desperate to please when he fails 🙂‍↕️

[jordiipordii]

Kevneil who take turns getting on Andrew’s last nerve with their constant bickering & hour long Exy debates just to prompt Andrew to nearly choke one out with his thick, meaty thighs while he keeps the other in a headlock; stuck between his bulging bicep & strong forearm they r exactly where they wanna be, don’t help

NSFW: Andreil having sex on a bed covered with empty candy wrappers from Andrew’s Easter snacking and all the four leaf clovers that Neil happened to glance down and see on his several runs of the day… Andrew pushing Neil down and letting his hand’s wander his boyfriend’s body, tracing and mapping out old scars as well as new lines & curves of muscle from Neil’s newest workout regimen… Neil sighing out softly the breathy lil moans that he knows Andrew likes…

Meanwhile Kevin is mere feet away, secured in his cuckchair and practically roped down there with leftover lace and ribbon… A headband on his pretty head that has a pair of rabbit ears all but sticking up as stiffly as Kevin’s cock is between his legs, exposed and neglected… Kev squirming under the weight of Andreil’s steady gazes whenever they can be bothered to look away from each other and peek over at him…

He’ll get to come eventually… He has to sit like a good boy and behave first, though… Which is probably being made almost overly difficult by the way Kevin gradually loses more and more of his will to hold still, the egg shaped vibrator that is buried deep in him pulsing louder and faster as he fights to not lose his ever-loving mind…

[jordiipordii]

Andrew Minyard who eats his pasta one noodle at a time ESPECIALLY when he decides to twirl it around his fork before every bite and Kevneil who will glare at anyone who gives him looks of impatience or disapproval mhmmm

Nicky would be the type to wear a shirt out in public that says “Would you still love me if I was a worm?” and on his right side you have Aaron giving a look that says “please say yes so he doesn’t cry” and on the left you have Andrew with his own stoic look that says “if you say no you’ll regret it” 10/10 little cousins aren’t they
