Random fanfic excerpts I have saved to my phone Part 6

Fanfic: Say something

Author: Willow_bird

Fandom: All For The Game

Ship: Andrew Minyard/Neil Josten

Site: Archiveofourown.org

Fic summary:

With his free hand, Andrew pulled out his phone and looked again at the message Neil had sent him about it.

talking is hard today.

Not 'I don’t want to talk' or 'I have nothing to say' but 'talking is hard'.

***

On a bad day, Neil struggles with his own mental state, and Andrew figures out how to be there for him. As they wade through this together, both young men realize its okay to lean on each other and that they are capable of both reaching out as well as hanging on. Also, Betsy has shipped them from the beginning, let's be completely honest here.

twinyards & Nicky learn to communicate

𝚊𝚘𝟹 𝚜𝚞𝚖𝚖𝚊𝚛𝚢:

Nicky would do anything for the twins.

When money problems threaten his ability to maintain the home he had managed to create for them, Roland offers Nicky shifts after-hours at Eden's.

Nicky sacrifices himself a little more, and soon a person from his past creeps back into his life to push him closer to his limit.

He worked so hard to keep this part of their lives his personal secret, but the desperation of the past never leaves quietly.

𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝

Nicky turns to sex work to support Andrew and Aaron, and must deal with the toll it takes.

"he doesn't give a shit that they're animals he still respects their choices, he doesn't crowd them or touches them if they're snappy at him, he just waits until they come to him"

"like if they scratch him he's like "it's OK I probably deserved it, maybe I startled you/you didn't want me to touch you"

"and he doesn't mind (if they do scratch him), he goes back the next day and waits for the same cat that scratched him to see if it has finally gained its trust and see if it gets close to him"

fettuccine is actually trying to make me cry this is not even a bit funny

@whataboutnoope

thinking bout Andrew and cats, how he always has treats in his pockets/cat food in his car so he can feed stray cats from his neighborhood, how these cats recognize him and surround him and scream at him, thinking how he'll caress each and every one in greeting (but only if they want to, if they're more skittish he's just content with having them come close to him/letting them sniff his fingers), he will call them names and say things like "you're ugly, look at how fat you are, you are so stupid and dumb" but if anyone else dares to he gets protective and stares them down til they apologize (to the cats, obviously)

one of the most tender andreil scenes is when neil and andrew fall asleep on beanbag chairs and they both wake up randomly and look at each other w sleepy eyes AND neil takes it as permission to be lazy and sleep MORE.

[tankuare]

Neil Josten said “I want to see you lose control” and we expected Andrew to recover from that???

[bisexualcroissant]

andrew helping neil shower was so tender i’m crying into my fucking fist. andrew wrapping up neil’s wounds so they wouldn’t hurt in the water. andrew helping him take his clothes off to shower because it caused neil too much pain to pull them all the way off. andrew washing neil’s hair. andrew helping him stand up when he was struggling to balance. and then neil crossing his arms behind andrew’s head to keep him closer, tilting andrew’s face up to kiss him. i’m so fucking soft for them oh my god

[taktitty]

Staring problem

[simonsrosebud]

I’m a firm believer in Andrew Minyard being gentle with kids.

Upholding his boundaries even with children and telling them no when they try to climb all over him, teaching them to say no as well and to set their own boundaries; to say “no thank you” when a relative wants a hug or kiss that they don’t want to give.

Gentle hands catching chubby arms when they almost topple over, tapping knees and toes and distracting aaron’s girls when they get a vaccine because “i can’t hold them both still while they’re freaking out but katelyn is out of town and you’re in town anyway and andrew they’re gonna be the death of me-”

Soft spoken words and made up stories about where twins come from; about horses growing horns when they see rainbows to become unicorns when someone says unicorns aren’t real; tales of a vegetable goblin that comes to your house when you don’t eat them to steal all your food (even though he doesn’t eat them himself).

Buying Aaron’s twins toys for Christmas that are undoubtedly awesome but such an unbelievable hassle for parents. Encouraging them to make a mess in any way he can just for fun. Getting them those electric cars and watching them drive down the street while Aaron chases after them because “it’s bath time we’re done with the cars, girls!” while they just continue giggling and circling him.

My one ooc Andrew Minyard headcanon I will never let go of is that his eyes are very expressive if you bother to look, but he’s so intimidating is hard to look in his eyes so only Neil, Renee and Kevin notice. Maybe Wymack does too but that’s outside of his pay grade still.

the moment that did me in is when Andrew brought Neil’s hands above his hair and said “Just here.”

Happy Asexual Awareness Week to Neil Josten specifically

Also small gay disaster Andrew

[andreilscat]

neil is sitting on the floor between andrew's legs, leaning back against the couch. andrew is playing with his hair that is much in need of a haircut. neil is vaguely aware of something playing on the tv but he is not paying any attention to it. his eyes are closed and he is hyperfocused on the way andrew's fingers feel on his scalp. light scratches before moving down the length of his hair, combing it with his fingers. neil sighs in pleasure when andrew starts massaging the back of his head and neck before going back to tangle his fingers in his hair. neil is practically melted into a puddle by his legs by the time andrew is done with him. his hair is neatly braided and he makes a mental note to never cut his hair. especially now that andrew is bending down to grab him around the waist and pull him onto his lap

[the-best-of-the-myrmidona]

Andrew Minyard is so mentally scary and tough to me, and then I remember that he canonically matches things like his armbands with Neil. And then I remember he's also probably secretly a little mushy pile of love

I still need practice, but digital coloring is getting a little easier 💕
