Please note that I took most of my information from online, and I didn't personally read/ watch everything, so there may be some mistakes. Also, some of the not-canon characters are very likely aspec, but just not confirmed. And especially if they say/ do really obviously aro/ ace stuff, I wasn't sure if it's enough to put them in the "confirmed" category. (e.g. Saiki literally said he isn't attracted to anyone regardless of gender, and never wants to be in a relationship. But there are still people who doubt his aroace-ness. (And at this point I don't see how it could be anything but aphobia, to deny the mere possibility of him being aroace so vehemently lol.) ) Also: Sadly, I couldn't find good aro-allo characters except Claire/ Claude from "baker thief". There is tons of good a-spec representation in that book (also more side characters that I didn't mention here), but I couldn't really find any fan-art. So then I just slapped the entire book cover on the collage.

How will Neil terrorize Britain this week?
10/30/24 WIP Wednesday (CLOSED) | Foxhole Bake AU
“Now that we’ve had our morning signature bake it is time to move onto the Technical challenge for the bakers this week.” Noel’s voice comes over the image of the bakers all at their stations with a pile of covered ingredients in front of them.
“With the Signature Bake the bakers were able to practice their bakes beforehand to make sure that they could get it right.” The camera lingered on Neil Josten, “With this however the bakers are going in blind with no idea what they will be baking or how to make it.”
The camera finally settled on Prue and Paul. “Bakers, for this week’s technical challenge we are asking that you make your own marshmallows and then make a puffed rice treat.” Paul’s eyes landed on Neil, “I’d say that one of you already knows the latter but I think you are all going in equally blind.” he says with a bit of a chuckle.
“I’ll find a new way to mess it up, don’t worry.” Neil reassures Paul.

first sentences of fav books:
• It's a weirdly subtle conversation.
• Als erstes ist da der Geruch von Blut und Kaffee. [the first thing is the smell of blood and coffee.]
• Neil Josten let his cigarette burn to the filter without taking a drag.
• Joost had two problems: the moon and his moustache.
• On the White House roof, tucked into a corner of the Promenade, there's a bit of loose paneling right on the edge of the Solarium.
• "Oh dear," Linus Baker said, wiping the sweat from his brow.
• I am aware as I step into the common room that the majority of people here are almost dead, including me.
• I walk to the bus station by myself.
• One summer night I fell asleep, hoping the world would be different when I woke.
• There's these two kids, boys, sitting close together, squished in by the big arms of an old chair.

• Yadriel wasn't technically trespassing because he'd lived in the cemetery his whole life.
• It makes sense that, when the times were desperate enough, when the people were frenzied enough, at a certain point we went past praying to deities and started to build them instead.
• I'd been envisioning what it would be like to behead the Vile One since the old wizard had shown up at my door the day after I turned seventeen and told me my destiny - that i would be the person who ended the dark shadow of evil that ruled our realm.
• When Gwen woke up, she knew she’d had the dream again – and that she’d been loud.

° Dear friend, I am writing to you because she said you listen and understand and didn't try to sleep with that person at that party even though you could have.
° Late in the winter of my seventeenth year, my mother decided I was depressed, presumably because I rarely left the house, spent quite a lot of time in bed, read the same book over and over, ate infrequently, and devoted quite
a bit of my abundant free time to thinking about death.
° The studio was filled with the rich odour of roses, and when the light summer wind stirred amidst the trees of the garden, there came through the open door the heavy scent of the lilac, or the more delicate perfume of the pink-flowering thorn.
- Nichts rührte sich im Tal der Drachen. [All was still in the valley of the dragons.]
- Es war Herbst in der Stadt des Mondes, als Victor zum ersten Mal von Prosper und Bo hörte. [It was autumn in Venice when Victor first heard of Prosper and Bo.]
- Der Fluss wirkte heute grauer als sonst. (There should be an english translation of this saga but i can't find it, it's called = Alea Aquarius)
- Meine Mutter wurde als kleines Mädchen fast entführt. (this book is apparently not very well known even in germany, so there isn't an english version sadly. i reread this every few years and it gives me so much joy. everything you want to happen in it actually happens. it's called: 'Wie eine Nuss mein Leben auf den Kopf stellte')

Listening to a book on audible after reading a physical copy of it is wild because:
A character will be introduced that I couldn’t pronounce the name of and my brain spent the rest of the book calling them ‘Askdfjghzvx’ and I’m internally screaming that ITS NOT PRONOUNCED LIKE THAT
The narrator’s voice doesn’t match up to the character and I have a crisis every time they speak
and because I’m stubborn i carry on listening to it anyways

just a headcanon of neil baking
The first time Neil tries to bake was because he was bored- he was all alone in the dorm (the monsters were in class) and he found a cookbook at the top of the fridge when he was looking for snacks. He had all the reasons to not go through with it because he was lacking supplies and ingredients but he wasn’t deterred and instead went to the nearest store to get what he needed. He ended up baking a bunch of cookies. Yes and nos may have been exchanged when Andrew came home and he may or may not have been delighted and kissed him despite the flour all over his face (what do you mean Neil isn’t a messy baker?). Andrew got a whole lot of them but Neil also gave some to the other foxes (Aaron was reluctant) (Kevin refused to try one because of course, and gives Neil a lecture of how he could’ve literally attempted any other hobby- which really just fueled Neil to bake more, if you ask him).
After that, it was just a saga of Neil trying out different things he could find in the cookbook (cupcakes, cakes, flan, etc.) much to the distress of one Kevin Day and content of one Andrew Minyard (Nicky and the upperclassmen were also very supportive, Aaron passes along recipes from Katelyn one time, and Renee also sometimes share recipes with him because what do you mean Renee doesn’t bake? Of course she does) (him and Renee baked pie once together and the foxes were in for a treat), along with him branching out by checking out other dessert cookbooks in the library and/or searching the internet. The most ironic thing about this is that Neil can’t actually cook shit and he hates sweets so much but his baked goods are really good? Really out there fantastic five over five?? Like Andrew wouldn’t admit it but his favorite dessert may or may not be this one chocolate cake Neil baked out of fun that Neil himself wouldn’t take at least three bites off??? 
The funniest thing though that will eventually lead to Andrew shortly getting mad at Neil, is Neil actually adds a lot of healthy things to these desserts (which he conveniently doesn’t tell Kevin) and it took Andrew like a month to notice it. He ignored Neil the rest of the day when he found out before eventually helping himself to the fresh blueberry cupcakes Neil bakes the next day.

sometimes i think about the fact the first night when kevin tried to recruit neil for night practice and both matt and seth were ready to throw down just for neil's sake
and then on the second time, if neil hadn't got to the door first, they probs would have just, thrown down with kevin
seth and matt were already so protective of a kid they met a few months ago

Morning Fuc*offee AU
A Morning AU 
Andrew Minyard likes his routine - wake up, walk to Fuc*offee, side eye the barista, do some work, go home, drink, sleep.
He’s been doing this for months - the barista is good looking and easy to annoy, he’s deft with his hands and safe to look at from a distance.
He’s not happy with life but he’s fine with this - it gets him by for now.
Which is why he’s so irate when a new guy starts to do the same.
New Guy is short and chatty and a tad twitchy. He has the bluest eyes Andrew has ever seen - like the water of Bishop’s glacier lake - absolutely crystalline. But they keep flicking behind him, to the exits, like he’s waiting for danger to find him.
He talks to Andrew’s barista.
He brings in fucking baked goods.
He made Barista Boy smile.
What actual fuckery is this?
Andrew stews and simmers, furious and not a little envious.
It’s easier for other people, he knows that, because Andrew isn’t normal or whole. He’s broken and will spend a life time trying to paper over the cracks left behind.
Fortunately, hating Blue Eyes comes easily to Andrew. He’s well versed in this emotion and applies it liberally to his almost-non-existent interactions with Blue Eyes.
Blue Eyes doesn’t take the hint.
When he passes Andrew he starts to smile, it looks shaky, like he hasn’t practiced the expression much.
Perhaps he hasn’t - there are thin scars over his cheeks, old but definitely once deep and impossibly neat. They’d been inflicted on this man.
Andrew hates him even more.
Blue Eyes has red hair like autumn leaves, like maybe it was auburn but he spent too much time in outside and the sun kissed it amber. He has freckles like constellations across the tan of his skin and when he passes Andrew’s table, there’s the scent of fresh bread and pastry.
No wonder then that Barista Boy has started looking back at Blue Eyes.
No wonder Andrew has become a pale shadow at the sideline of their story.
Andrew decides to fuck routine.
For a week he gives Fuc*offee a miss. He tries other places: there’s no where quite as good though.
On the eighth day, he caves. He wants a good, sweet coffee with plenty of cream. The coffee Barista Boy makes so reluctantly.
He steps into the shop, orders.
Barista Boy actually smiles. “Been on holiday?”
It breaks their no speaking bar ordering rule but Andrew lifts one shoulder and drops it again. “Something like that.”
Interesting that he noticed.
Blue Eyes arrives at his usual time - windswept and breathtaking. His impossible gaze falls on Andrew and he beams. Smile wide and real.
Andrew’s chest is a vice. His stomach fills with iron filings that clip and snatch at his insides.
��You’re back,” says Blue Eyes. “Kevin must be delighted.”
Andrew blinks at him. Kevin. The name of the barista that he refuses to remember.
Blue Eyes waves at Kevin and the man rolls his eyes.
Blue Eyes sits, uninvited, at Andrew’s table.
“I’m Neil, by the way. I run the new bakery over the street.”
Right. The one that now supplies the baked everything to Fuc*offee.
Clearly sleeping with the barista was an added bonus to the business transaction. Andrew shakes himself - that’s a cruel thought and Bee would scold him for passing judgement like that. Still, he feels bitter and annoyed.
He doesn’t have pastries for Kevin. And there’s no way Andrew’s eeked out living as a poet is going to get him in anyone’s pants.
Was that even what he wanted though? He could - and had - found plenty of one night only hookups in the past. It wasn’t enough. He never...
He’s aware of Blue Eyes - Neil - sitting opposite, reading a book.
He lifts his pen to write, pauses, waits for Neil to be an unwarranted distraction. He doesn’t.
There's a shift after that - Neil often sitting with Andrew when they come in together and have time.
Andrew will scribble.
Neil will read.
There's a certain companionship that Andrew doesn't let himself dwell on. Neil goes back to his bakery just before midday for the afternoon shift and Andrew packs up just after lunch to go home.
Andrew likes this.
Not that he'd admit it.
But the highlight of his day isn't ordering his coffee anymore.
It's the moments after - when he and Neil sit together, knees just brushing, occasionally interrupted by a huff of poetic frustration or an exclamation at a plot twist.
So much so, that when Barista Boy turns out to have not just one but two really rather stunning partners - a surly Frenchman and a man with a smile like sunshine - Andrew doesn't really feel... anything at all.
Neil's enthusiastic introduction to Jean and Jeremy is almost over the top.
Turns out Jean has been helping with the French pastries at his bakery.
Turns out Jeremy is way too nice for his own good and has helped to PR the two shops, which is why they're increasingly busy. He also works with Nicky - Andrew realises - or at least for the same company.
Andrew should probably touch base with his cousin, it’s been a while.
Still, even though Barista Boy is taken, Andrew comes to Fuc*offee and spends time with Neil.
And Neil is... increasingly distracting just because he exists.
It's the autumn shade of his hair, the freckles that Andrew wants to map, the fresh blue of his eyes.
It's his smile that comes easier now, at least when he's looking at Andrew.
So really it shouldn't have been a surprise that when Neil swept in one day with a flurry of snowflakes and nose pinked by the cold, Andrew's breath snatched away like birds had swooped off with his lungs.
Andrew has a new problem.
And this time it's not safe. It's not at a distance.
There isn't a coffee bar between him and Neil. There isn't a careful balance of customer and barista. There's nothing but paper and conversation, a scant few centimetres of table.
He spends the whole morning unable to write.
His only thought is: fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.
Right up until the moment that Neil reaches over, almost absently, and puts his hand carefully against Andrew's, palm up.
An offering.
Blue eyes flick up, "You're pushing yourself too hard today. Just relax a moment."
So Andrew puts down his pen.
Lifts his fingers so they hover over Neil's.
"Yes or no?" he asks.
Neil's smile is the widest yes he could give.
-The End-

and last but not least I kindly request some foxhole bake! Happy WW, dear ash!!! You're a legend!
10/30/24 WIP Wednesday (CLOSED) | Foxhole Bake AU
“We are.” Paul nods and soon the bakers are back in the tent. If Neil Josten has a bit of chocolate sauce on his lips then no one comments on it. The same way no one comments on how Kimura keeps fidgeting hand going for his pocket before stopping.
“You all had some wonderful wonderful bakes for the signature bake challenge this week.” Prue starts off looking at each of the contestants.
“You really showed us your creativity when it came to these dessert bars. They really can be a blank canvas.” Paul nods at them all. “It was a hard time for Prue and I to decide on which one showed the most skill and talent.”
“The winner of the Signature Bake Challenge is someone who brought a lot of different baking techniques and textures into their dessert bar this week.” Prue’s gaze stops as she looks at Tiffany.
