Andrew had genuinely been hoping Neil would tell him to fuck off after “That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t blow you.” this stupid redhead managed to miss every single hint, and the painfully obvious ones about Andrew’s sexuality. Andrew was so completely, utterly doomed. at that point, there was only one option left: spell it out in the bluntest, rudest way possible. “I’m telling you I want you to fuck my throat. At this point, you’ve got two choices. Either punch me in the face because you’re homophobic, or tell me you don’t mind if I get on my knees right now so we can finally put this whole thing to rest.” and Neil was just…. “okay..?”
"Kevin day only cares about exy"
He does have hobbies btw he likes history and photography but y'all read with your eyes closed
"Kevin day has no personality"
Kevin day sees potential in ppl others deemed hopeless
Kevin learned french for jean
Kevin kept his friends secrets because he knew what it was like not being able to trust anyone
His favorite color is red btw
"Kevin day is dependent on Andrew"
Andrew himself doesn't care why do you
"he's a third wheel for Andrew and Neil"
They chose the system btw they want him there
I am defending this man like it's my full time job at this point 🙂↕️ because y'all are annoying me
Every time I see someone say “what is air?” or “trololol” on tumblr, all I think is:
get off tumblr, please.
you are doing ghost of christmas past torment to me
neither of them is particularly fond of putting their relationship on display. no casual kisses in public, no lingering hugs, no sitting in each other’s laps in the middle of the street, and they’re both perfectly content with that. but every now and then, when they’re walking through the city and the crowd around them begins to thin, Neil feels a familiar hand slip into his. he glances down just in time to see Andrew quietly threading their fingers together before giving his hand the gentlest squeeze. Neil doesn’t even bother looking around to see who’s watching. he couldn’t care less about strangers’ stares. If Andrew is the one reaching for him first, then it means Andrew has already decided it’s safe. and if it’s safe for Andrew, it’s automatically safe for Neil. so all Neil does is brush his thumb slowly over Andrew’s knuckles and return the squeeze, quietly savoring the warmth of Andrew’s hand for as long as Andrew is willing to hold on before finally letting go.
Wymack going “he sounds like neil but he doesnt look like him” when he finds Neil at the airport beaten, tattooed and with hair dyed was kinda “I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth” of him.
not in the romantic sense the quote is originally meant as, but it’s still just as dear to me. Neil’s whole life has been about being unrecognizable, about wearing faces that arent his own, about staying unknown. and here comes Wymack, and by extension really all the foxes, who know Neil so very well he is sometimes shocked they noticed him under all the layers.
regardless of what identity neil takes on and how he changes his looks, his family recognizes him
a friend asked for my thoughts on andrew’s use of the word “misunderstanding” in tfc, and i have two interpretations. the first one is occam’s razor— it’s probably because nora choose to make it a trigger word after publishing tfc and before publishing trk. a continuity error, essentially. the other interpretation, or that it was an intentional creative decision, draws on the fact that the way andrew uses the word is consistent with how it has been weaponized against him, that is, applied to a situation which was not actually misunderstanding. in this case, he went through neil’s stuff and neil knows it. just like in andrew’s childhood, there will be no justice doled out for that offense. neil will just have to get over it.
So we know the Ravens fell apart after Riko died. But I've been thinking... Would the Ravens still have fallen apart if Riko would have survived and just graduated?
Riko wouldn't really thrive in a pro team. His authority would end as soon as he enters the team unless it's a majority ex Raven team. Even then it's kinda meh. He'd crumble pretty fast and maybe not even make it to court and even if he'd definitely not get along with Kevin, Neil and Andrew who'd make it as well.
The Ravens would take note of his decline and lose their idol. If Riko is no longer someone to look up to and they realize that all members of the perfect court not only turned their backs to Riko but also the Ravens as a whole... Then what's the point of suffering through being a Raven in the first place? Ravens likely already have low chances at truly getting anywhere, do to issues fitting into pro teams or lasting damages that pull them off the court early.
So again.. what's the point of being a Raven?
the problem with tumblr spells is all of you lil sluts are casting and not giving it time to charge so you're all casting cantrips and not 9th level death spells. everyone wants to be the one to take them down no one wants to be the one who assists
we're going to try again witha little but minimal casting
IT will happen in August of 2026. like to charge and reblog to cast but cast sparingly
Wait stop. everyone +like now and spread it a little but cast on the same day in August. lets try August 6th or something.
I’ve got a lot of Thoughts(tm) about The Odyssey at the moment, but damnit Blum I’m an archer, not a film critic, so here’s something in my lane!
personally I'm annoyed by the socioeconomic conditions that made words like "unalive" necessary but simultaneously impressed by the linguistic adaptations young people have made to continue talking about important things while subject to those conditions and I think if you can't hold both of those thoughts in your head you might just be old man yelling at cloud
I just love it when video games let you do really stupid shit that kills you immediately. I love being like "oh this is a terrible idea" and being able to do it and then die. It's good game design.
The kids are aight
#“I respect this”
if andrew worked at a circus he would be a sword swallower and he would make direct eye contact with neil in the crowd whenever he did and the implication would always go directly over neil’s head. he does not understand anything, he’s wondering if andrew knows how to avoid getting cut by knives because that would be very useful for him if he could learn that too
i think one day in bee's office, aaron asks andrew why he wears his armbands. aaron had assumed when he first saw them (thanksgiving), that they were wounds from a monster like drake, and that's not something to be shameful of--they both know that.
andrew doesn't answer for a while, jaw clenched in contemplation and bee just watching silently to see how this turns out. after a few minutes of tense silence, andrew lets out a sigh and says "I did these," with a tap on his forearm.
aaron's eyes widen in confusion, then they fill with understanding. he slides the end of his shorts a bit up to expose the outside of his upper thigh, where his own scars lie. with a coy smile (because he can be obnoxious like that) he looks up from the pale lines of healed tissue and locks eyes with andrew before letting out a "matching,"
that's where the session ends, but both of them have clearer insight of the other's suffering and growth. a newfound connection and quiet understanding.
andrew, who thought that his scars would be interpreted as an act of weakness, finds that they can't be. not if aaron carries those same scars with him, too.
and aaron, who at some point thought of his brother as a heartless monster, smiles at the proof of his emotions. that they match. they both went through shit, but survived through it all and here they were.
