#Coach wymack????

[tchutomu]

reading a book named "the sunshine court" shouldn't have made me cry so hard and loud and ugly that I couldn't even read the screen of my stupid e-reader anymore yet here we are

wymack watching neil put andrews hand inside his shirt in a room full of people:

We all know Wymack would have easily accepted Jean as one of his players and I have no doubt that he already considers Jean one of his kids. But like, you can’t tell me that man didn’t almost fall to his knees in relief after realizing he won’t have to deal with the PR nightmare that would have been Jean and Neil doing press duty (and Kevin “I’ve never been skiing” Day) Like he’s been exposed to Jeans sass and I just know that man sent the Trojans coaches a nice bottle of liquor each with a note that just says thoughts and prayers

The Foxhole Court

The King’s Men

The change between book one and three on how Neil reacts to an angry Wymack is something I think about often. He used to calculate the distance between the two of them to make sure he was just out of arms reach, just in case he got angry, and now he knows that if Wymack is truly angry, it will not be at them. And he doesn’t flinch.

Jean is 6'2" and muscular... Wymack easily lifts Jean.

Wymack easily lifts Jean.

Wymack easily lifts Jean.

Wymack saw Jean’s one (1) duffel bag containing all of his earthly possessions and went NOT AGAIN

For the uninitiated, I wrote a quiz where you can find which AFTG character you are, but the takers have been sending me all day. I never thought y'all would be into this that much, but here are my fav genre of takers:

(Aaron isn't even the most common result) Again, thank y'all, ask my roommate I've been getting way too much joy from this.

After every interaction between Jean and Rhemann the only thing I could imagine was Rhemann pouring himself a drink and calling up Wymack like how tf do you deal with an entire team of this

[coffeeco001]

Wymack: Listen up! Exy fans are turning attention away from us. If our personal view count goes down, we are going to start losing rep.

Foxes:

Wymack: So.. Josten, Minyard, you two are on press tonight. I am going to go home after the game and have some vodka for dinner. I don't care what you do, fix the views. I will not be watching or responsible.

Foxes:

Abby:

The Next Day:

Reporter: Exy views at an all time high after a minyard/josten interview scandal! Stay tuned for details.

Wymack, shaking: *turns TV off*

Wymack: They did what I told them... I don't want to know. I don't. Want. To know..

Nora saying that the only time Neil cries is when Wymack dies is wrong btw. Wymack never dies

[intrenalcrisisnerd]

I feel like its an underrated fact the Neil flat out told Kevin and Wymack that recruiting him was a mistake and tried his best yo get them to leave him alone in Milport.....they have nothing to blame but themselves for the chaos that followed, my guy said point blank it was a bad idea.

david wymack is such a fierce protector. he loves so deeply and so unconditionally it makes me wanna cry.

like he had just met neil when he said "you need one of us to talk to your parents? are they the ones who hurt you? [...] if your parents are a problem for you, we'll move you to south carolina early."

and he offered him his couch. and then he told him "foxes are foxes for a reason and they know we wouldn't sign you if you didn't qualify. that doesn't mean they know the specifics. it's not my place to ask and I'm sure as hell not going to tell them. did you think I made the team the way it is because I thought it would be a good publicity stunt? it's about second chances, neil. second, third, fourth, whatever, as long as you get at least one more than what anyone else wanted to give you."

he barely knew jean when he told him "your so called master and that bitch of a nephew of his. kevin told us the truth when he transferred so we'd know what we were getting into. I know you think you have to go back to evermore and I know what's waiting for you there. I will burn this house down before I let him touch you again."

and let's not forget about "wymack didn’t care if he had nine foxes or twenty-five. he’d stand behind them until the bitter, bloody end." and "it was the look of a man made ancient by his players' tragedies; it was the look of a man who'd have their backs no matter what it cost him"

and how he usually drives the bus himself because "it was apparently better to be uncomfortable but safe than to trust a stranger with his fractured team."

david wymack dedicated his life to showing kids who were dealt a shit hand in life that they can still play their cards right. I heard somewhere once that sometimes miracles are just good people with kind hearts and I thought it was a little corny but oh does it apply to someone like david wymack. he gave each of the foxes their own miracles. I know he is a fictional character but he just has the biggest heart and honestly he makes me want to have faith in humanity.

I love that scene in tkm where Wymack tells Neil he's going to make him vice captain the next year and Neil tries to politely decline (on the grounds that he'll be dead by then) and Wymack is literally like too bad bitch. This isn't a democracy and i say you're the next captain so figure it out

[bisexualchaosdemon]

Sometimes, I think about the fact that Wymack is Kevin's dad, and I want to weep. He dedicated his entire life to helping others who had grown up like he had, only to find out that his own son had grown up a caged and abused wreck? That's a level of pain that I can't even fathom.

[hyperboleigh91]

I think Wymack's heart probably broke as he kept watch over a sleeping Jean and saw how terrorized Jean was by nightmares.

In those moments, he probably had the realization that Jean could never be one of his Foxes because the fight had been viciously carved out of Jean.

Wymack knows he's able to help them as long as there's some fight left, but Jean was past that point. Jean couldn't even allow himself to feel his anger; he needed to go someplace that would heal him enough that he could start to stand on his own again or, barring that, someplace that would hold him up if he was no longer able to stand.
