[aceaaroniscanon]

neil: andrew, i’m so happy i could kiss you!

andrew: (nervous gay laughter) um……………. neat!

(later)

andrew: (lying face down on his bed) i can’t believe i said ‘neat’, aaron. ‘neat.’ nobody says ‘neat’ anymore! it’s the goddamn 21st century!! it’s not neat to say neat, but i said it anyway because i’m! a huge loser!

aaron: (idly turns textbook page) hey, don’t beat yourself up. everyone gets nervous sometimes. remember what happened when katelyn confessed to me?

andrew: didn’t you like, thank her?

aaron: (closes textbook to stare at the ceiling) i thanked her.

push to talk by @alexjosten​ [requested by @nikothespoonklepto]

see which other fics i’m reviewing this month! / my review request post!

this is a delightfully engaging fic based on the game firewatch that follows neil as he spends a summer as a fire lookout, isolated except for radio communication with andrew, a fire lookout in the adjacent sector of the park. this is such an intense, fun, beautiful, and humorous fic.

i remember enjoying this so much as it came out, eagerly awaiting each new chapter. you drew me in so easily and deeply that i watched a whole playthrough of this game. i can fully appreciate how well you were able to translate the plot, gameplay, interactions between characters, and the stunning visuals so so seamlessly and have it aftg so well.

some parts that stood out to me:

”dusk settles on the trees like clay powder, dusting the evergreens with a red tint” woah this is such a gorgeous way of starting off this fic.

”the moon extends her helping hand to guide him out into a clearing. here, neil can see. but also, he can be seen” i love these descriptions, and our introduction to neil. 

”he ignores his sleeping bag and the strict instructions to camp at nightfall and continue during the day” ah yes, Neil I Do What I Want Josten strikes again, with little regard for what people tell him to do

”if he’s not careful, the black dirt beneath his feet could bleed crimson. the exact combination of colours he came out here to avoid” this is stunning. i am immediately drawn into this fic, wanting to know what or who exactly neil is running from, and where he’s going

”buttermilk rays whisk the shadows of leaves into a dance on the forest floor beneath his feet” !! buttermilk?? somehow that works so so well

”the irony of calling it that in his head isn’t lost on him, and he vows to avoid that comparison again” what a subtle detail, but so telling! i am pretty bad with reading tags a lot of the time, so this was a great introduction to raven!neil

”it’s as exposing as it is freeing. he can’t feel trapped when he can see for miles every way he turns” wow it’s still so early in the fic, but you’ve already done an exceptional job at justifying neil choosing to come here, to escape.

foxtrot tower is such a cute name! i love that it’s not something directly taken from the books, this name seems to fit this au so well. i know that you likely had the game as reference for the tower, but i really liked the way you describe it, you were able to establish the same tone that exists in the game, but you did it through words instead of visuals and audio, something that really impresses me

”glad to hear you’re literate enough to have read the dossier” ohmygoodness ANDREW

”andrew’s tone is playful. neil thinks it might even be flirtatious, but he doesn’t care enough right now to find out” as much as i enjoy oblivious!neil, i appreciate that this version of neil is more aware, he seems more in tune with things around him. it fits better with this story, with the isolation and only communication being through the radio

”the sky slips into a more comfortable pink, the sun laying down to rest amongst the mountains” am i ever going to get over your descriptions of the environment? i don’t think so

of course neil goes for a run, basically right after doing a super intense two day hike in one day

”andrew sounds agitated” I LOVE THIS

oh dang, neil’s panic is so sudden, i’m so immersed that i immediately felt nervous too

”it’s our job to watch the horizon, neil. it’s not my fault you’re on mine” oh this is so good

”neil doesn’t believe in coincidences. he believes in traps and ill intentions, because that’s all his life has been until now”  it’s honestly amazing how quickly the atmosphere of this fic has turned to something a little bit darker, kind of scary. we know neil as a runner, but the idea of someone finding him so soon and trying to lure him out? gives me chills

“he doesn’t realise his hands are shaking until he struggles to press the push-to-talk button” PUSH TO TALK I AM SO FOND OF FICS THAT INCLUDE THE TITLE OF THE FIC IN THEIR FIC. also shaky hands are my kryptonite

”he also takes the cleaver from the kitchen counter” NEIL I- I AM SPEECHLESS

”a small sensible part of his brain tries to convince him that there are much easier ways to kill him than leading him out in the middle of nowhere, in a forest that he told nobody from his past life that he would be living in, where he uses a new name that nobody knows” !! good to hear that neil has a sensible part of his brain LOL

”but underestimating his enemies and their taste for dramatics would be a mistake” neil of all people does have a good reason for being paranoid. i love that you have this separated as a different paragraph, i read it differently because of it and i think that it adds more gravity to the sentence

”there, he finds a lipstick-red tent, zipper teeth yawning open to reveal two pink sleeping bag tongues” the imagery!!! incredible

”he feels like a walking timebomb” yeah i am definitely nervous for neil

”’girls don’t do it for you?’ andrew’s curiosity has a hopeful slant” OHMYGOODNESS ANDREW

”andrew’s voice is a firm, solid reassurance” bless andrew

”neil never thought he’d be relieved to meet someone who didn’t like exy” i also never thought that. neil you are a changed man

ooh the backstory to the fireworks is so good! i was also thinking it was a little out of character, but this is the perfect reason that renee would let it slide!

”the stars are withering in the purpling sky” i could cry because i love your writing so much

A MAN I AM FREAKING OUT. WHO IS HE

the easygoing banter between andrew and neil is so great, their conversation is interesting and flows really well

”he’s almost home” it amazes me and really shows something about this version of neil that he’s so quick to call this tower his home

”i know i needed to do this, but i am not sure i am ready to be so alone” woah break my heart why don’t you? this hits really close to home,, how dare you make me feel emotions

”i usually take a more straightforward approach” andrew never lies, but this is the truest thing he has ever said

”they’ll probably never meet, because neil intends on spending the rest of his summer without meeting another soul, andrew included” hmmm why do i have the sneaking suspicion that this will not be the case?

”neil’s not sure what grindr is but his face heats up all the same” this sentence is a MOOD (except i do know what grindr is)

”andrew’s response is sharp like a blade. ‘why? because one of the girls called you scarface?’ neil feels himself flinch” hhh i am secretly a very big fan of scenes that include neil’s scars, so you got me here

”andrew keeps neil company on the hour hike up to the north of his sector, but his usual commentary seems a bit strained today” uhH what’s going on, i’m getting scared

DID ANDREW BRING NEIL OVER JUST SO HE CAN SEE WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE? 

ohmygoodness, neil leaving andrew pictures and a sweatshirt? so so so cute

”he imagines the fear they felt when they saw him holding it wasn’t too unlike the fear that used to paralyse him when his father, or lola, would threaten him back home” woah this is good

i would bet that allison was the one to write that letter haha i can imagine that renee is likely kind of shaken by the incident, otherwise she might not have let allison leave it behind

andrew is such a good companion for neil, calming him both by his presence and by logically explaining what could have happened to the tent. he’s an anchor

”he feels like the cleaver he had attempted to defend himself with on his first day now carries a foreboding aura” YEAH I’M GETTING PRETTY NERVOUS TOO

WAIT NATHAN IS DEAD? THANK GOODNESS

woah so interesting to learn about neil’s backstory and his reason for not going pro “his offers to join pro teams curled up like dead leaves in a fire” dang, referencing both his burns and his new job? so good

ANDREW MINYARD IMITATING A VALLEY GIRL I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE PLEASE

oo that subtle way of mentioning andrew’s memory

i am so emotional, andrew is just so so good. makes me feel all the feelings ;-;

”andrew sounds like a bristled up cat tail” CUTE!!

i am dying to know what is going on in andrew’s head, during this conversation, when he left his tower to see neil, and really, just throughout this whole fic

woah i really like the way that you had neil describe his asexuality. it’s something that i recognize in myself and i like the way that you handled it.

 >:C 

them drawing each other?? peak cute. i want that to happen to me (have someone who doesn’t know what i look like try and draw me)

”neil waits for him to say more. he doesn’t. oh. that’s why. ‘heh’” LOLOL

you know what, i actually,,, only recognized the name draco malfoy LOL

ANDREW PRETENDING THAT HE DOESN’T ACTUALLY KNOW AARON OH MY GOODNESS. I CANNOT BELIEVE HE PRETENDED TO GET HIS NAME WRONG. “i look like him. but hotter and better dressed” ANDREW HOW GOOD TO YOU DRESS YOU LIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOREST. this whole section is hilarious and really helps lighten the tone and keep things playful

”’why would i wear that?’ andrew’s response is too quick and defensive” *unintelligible screaming*

ANDREW DRAWING NEIL IN TINY RUNNING SHORTS. THIS! MAN! I CAN’T HANDLE HIM

”neil gets into the routine of falling asleep next to his radio, talking to andrew deep into the night, far past his ability to keep his eyes open. they take turns drifting off mid conversation…” this is the softest thing ever

”considering neil’s job is to prevent forest fires, there’s a certain irony in how beautiful the park is when painted the colours of flames” oh (like a good oh)

ANDREW REJECTING NEIL REALLY JUST BROKE MY HEART WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO ME

”his heart tumbles from his chest and falls to the bottom of the ravine. he doesn’t understand why it was so close to the railings of his ribcage in the first place” this is so so beautiful even though it’s describing something so sad. makes me feel achy

drunk andrew. how is it that you, alexjosten, seem to know everything that i love in a fic?

”neil’s cabin floods with light. how real is neil josten without nathaniel wesninski filling his shell? with a snap, it’s gone.” uh this is so incredible, i love how you split everything up into its own paragraph, their conversation so similar to the storm. ugh i can’t get enough

”still, neil feels the change: the undeniable part of him where his branches have been torn asunder and his bark has been scorched away to expose his core” every time i think that this sentence is the best, and every time you blow me away again. i can’t describe how this sentence makes me feel

the scene of neil rescuing allison and renee fills me with adrenaline, it’s so intense

having the girls recognize neil was like being trapped in a nightmare, there was nothing i could do but read on and see how it ends. dajsflks. but also i really hope that neil got back his jacket and sweater lol

WHAT IN THE WORLD NEIL HAVING TO PLAY A GAME ON CODEINE, RIKO TRYING TO KILL NEIL ON TV, THIS IS SO INTENSE. also, i love what you’ve done with this

dang, how does andrew know kevin?

andrew’s gifts for neil are so cute. i am here just freaking out!!!!

A PUFFBALL DANDELION 

“you sweet, sheltered city child” oh my goodness adorable

”you’re going to go nuts when i tell you what a caterpillar turns into” ANDREW

THE BEAR. THE JUMP

honestly, i’m a little surprised that neil wasn’t supplied with bear spray

”’andrew, i don’t think they’re coming for me.’ ‘of course they’re not.’ neil’s heart sinks. ‘they’re not?’ ‘i am’” KFAJSDFJPOJAFD THIS GLORIOUS INTERACTION WILL FOREVER BE WITH ME

THEM TRAVELLING AND EVERYTHING WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE BECAUSE OF THE DARK. ALSO ANDREW BEING SUPER BUFF AND PICKING NEIL UP NO BIG DEAL

”we had your face on a dart board in the break room” AHHHH

”the only consolation is it smells of the andrew who just walked two hours to rescue him from the side of a cliff, and then spent another two hours carrying him here” i don’t even know what to say

wait andrew knew who neil was the whole time oh my goodness

THE GAME IS ANIMAL CROSSING. this is now and forevermore considered canon! 

ANDREW DROPPING THE GAME HE’S SO TIRED. ANDREW MY BABY

ANDREW’S DRAWING OF NEIL

”half of andrew’s sandwich is in his mouth, and he kind of looks like a hamster” adorable!

okay okay jean and jeremy being the two trading letters? so so good.

THE ENDING WITH ANDREW TELLING STORIES ABOUT NEIL BEING DEAD

the last chapter was amazing, i loved the way that you wrote the interactions between andrew and neil, they fit so well together. i also appreciate that you deviated from the game and had them meet! it is infinitely more satisfying. this was such an easy fic to read, everything felt right. i love your characterization of both of them. to have andrew treat neil the way that he did, knowing who neil was? amazing

also, can i just say that the moodboards that you include at the beginning of each chapter are amazing? they really helped with establishing the tone of the fic.

this fic is so intense, i was constantly amazed by how i was so fully immersed in it. everything that neil felt, i felt. your descriptions were gorgeous and i could not get enough of them. there were so many small details, sentences that were pure gems, that rereading this was just as, if not more, enjoyable than the first time. i really cannot put to words how much i loved reading this. thank you so so much for writing it!

[sixinchrainbowheels]

so you’ve heard of the cheerleader!neil au where he used to cheer (if you’ve never heard of it check it out here) but are you ready for

the au where he never stopped

alternately titled the vixen!neil au

- he’s a good cheerleader, okay. gOOD. the vixens’ coach knows it. his high school coach knows it, despite how much he tries to hold back. 

- he pretended to not know how to do a back handspring at the first practice. 

- he tried so hard. 

- then he realized they wouldn’t let him on the team without one and miraculously learned it. 

- neil josten is Not Smooth

- he never stops pretending not to know things

- his coach never stops being Tired of His Shit

- anyway, he’s scouted by the Vixens’ coach at a Millport game where they’re doing halftime- since it was just a halftime performance where no one would care he mAY have done some killer tumbling passes in the spur of the moment

- cue high school coach groaning in the background

- “goddamnit neil you TOLD ME YOU DIDN’T KNOW WHAT THOSE REBOUND JUMPS EVEN WERE”

- anyway my son here gets somewhat forcibly recruited in a similar situation to Wymack’s attempt but involving abnormally sharp stilettos and an attempt at suffocation via pom-poms

- his reasoning is basically “yeah ok i shouldn’t be in the spotlight but hey i’m not playing exy. no one will suspect a thing. this is literally cheerleading.”

- i mean really, no one cares about competitive cheerleading except cheerleaders. this is a great plan.

- also, he’s somewhat in the exy loop and knows that kevin is at palmetto state. neil is so glad he isn’t going for exy. that would be terrible. he can’t even IMAGINE how awkward it would be to be on a team with that guy he was with that one time his dad sliced up a guy in front of them

- that would be awful

- so yeah neil’s a vixen now

- the only guy on the team r i p

- poor boy is picked on so much by the coach because yOU ARE THE SOLE PRODUCER OF TESTOSTERONE FOR THIS CLUSTERFUCK OF PANSY ASS COLLEGE STUDENTS AND HEY YOU’RE NOT FUCKING ALLOWED TO COLLAPSE GET UP

- she loves him and shows it through forcing him through ten laps every time he fucks up

- as it turns out he’s a pretty Okay flyer but like…not the very best so he doesn’t do it often 

- but his tumbling passes

- oh his tumbling passes *sigh*

- kinda like this

- he can do crazy stuff ok like he starts out with like half speed and these freaking summer practices are bringing it uP

- so eventually school starts and of course people see him, the one guy on the team, and many assume he’s either banging half the team or gay

- he does nothing about rumors about him unless directly confronted, in which case he usually brings out the “i don’t swing” spiel

- the one time someone tries to make fun of him is the most likely time for it- the girls dragged him out shopping. he’s in a pink convertible with like, 10 girls and an obscene amount of shopping bags

- they picked him up after practice with “get in loser we’re going shopping”

- he didn’t actually get in, one of the larger-built back bases picked him up and just threw him in like he weighed nothing

- but anyway someone yells some generalized “you’re gay lol” type insult at him

- and these girls are on him in a s e c o n d

- the poor guy needed 15 bags of ice for all the burns

- afterward they were talking and some girls were talking about how apparently they were too affectionate and people thought they were dating and one was like “maybe it’s because i have a big L E S B I A N CRUSH ON YOU” in a very sassy, janis ian way and everyone laughs and poor neil is so confused and they were like “what? you don’t get it?”

- long story short, neil has like twenty new outfits and a disgusting amount of eyeliner and vixen movie night became a thing and the season hasn’t really even started

- he eventually meets the Foxes when Dan and the Vixens’ captain decide they don’t have enough camaraderie and the first fox-vixen get together is arranged in the basement of fox tower

- the foxens

- neil babbles about exy for ages and all the foxes are surprised about how much he knows

- the vixens are not

- they put up with him for the entire summer. when it wasn’t cheer it was exy. always one of the two.

- wow did you see nationals? I can’t believe how well mason’s flyer pulled off that triple- “NEIL” you guys were at last year’s third game? andrew minyard was so- “nEILLLL”

- anyway, he’s a bit awkward around kevin because you know that thing but kevin doesn’t recognize him. it’s great. he talks strategy for ages; he’s been watching their games and has been dying to chat about ways to improve on what he’s seen of the team or strategize

- kevin is surprised at first but he ends up talking animatedly about exy. kevin’s a good guy, and he respects the work the cheerleaders put in, but he wishes neil played exy because he knows w a y more than the surface amount kevin expects from most cheerleaders and that’s p useful

- andrew is there, not really in a conversation, but he lurks on the outside of neil and kevin’s and pays attention because this boy is Pretty and Interesting

- matt also pays attention and ends up in the conversation after a little while because he’s supportive of the vixens’ only male cheerleader and he has to make sure neil knows this

- the other monsters ask around about neil (because let’s be real, they’d be intrigued by the one guy on the team, and nicky is certainly not letting such a cute one get past him)

- they end up getting the information that a) this guy is on the top of pyramids and b) boy can freaking tumble like a god

- nicky may mention neil on top is definitely not the worst idea he’s ever heard

- they relay this to andrew, who is kinda curious but refuses to acknowledge that because andrew minyard does not experience anything like interest dammit he is a cold and calculating midget

- so the next game the foxes has is against a really terrible team and by halftime they’re up like 8-2 it’s ridiculous

- andrew decides he’ll stay near the court for halftime and see the vixens’ show

- everyone notices but no one says anything because he has knives

- kevin stays too because this boy better have a good excuse for cheering instead of playing exy

- the routine is everything you’d expect and more: over-the-top, sassy, mind-bendingly fast paced, but N E I L

- andrew just stares

- he knew the vixens were good but s h i t

- he has to fight to keep his jaw from unhinging during neil’s tumbling passes like how does he move that fast how does he rotate like that hOW WHAT

- kevin’s in a similar state but he knows he can use this. the way neil’s jumping and flipping with minimal use of his hands??? imagine implementing that. imagine. revolutionary. 

- since the show doesn’t take all of halftime, kevin and andrew sneak into the locker room when it’s done

- they were Not Subtle

- wymack would have actually killed them if they weren’t winning by such a large margin

- anway after they win kevin pulls andrew aside

- “you saw what he was doing. please tell me you know where i want to go with this.”

- of course kevin has every intention of forcing neil to teach them how to do this crazy shit

- kevin does a little research and finds out when neil will be heading to fox tower after practice and using his “i’m kevin motherfucking day” charm he gets neil to help him learn how to tumble at nightly practices

- neil forces him to swear not to give out his name when people start asking where he gets this stuff, because like that would be Bad.

- it’s an uncertain, shaky thing, but it starts happening

- andrew starts joining because kevin wears him down (that’s not the only reason)

- the season goes on and oh no! the ravens are in our district now

- but get this

- it’s only about kevin.

- they didn’t notice neil. he’s a fucking cheerleader. no one important notices or cares

- there was no morning show fiasco, so seth is still alive!!!

- they got seth some professional help for the good of the plot and he’s been recovering from...everything and getting better at not getting carded every two seconds and communicating

- so no, they don’t win,

- but kevin ties it at the last second when he’s backed up by a backliner and he does a f u c k i n g aerial over her head and scores.

- riko’s face.

- literally everyone’s face.

- neil is cheering his heart out he is so proud 

- after the game, kevin tells the other foxes about neil and his tumbling and they start hanging out with him more because they couldn’t have won without him, and they can learn a lot

- the season goes on, neil gradually becomes okayish, he gets the love he deserves from the foxes and vixens and andrew

- neil starts teaching the foxes his cool tumbling stuff:

      - renee turns out to be fantastic at it, graceful and flexible queen she is

      - dan and nicky are pretty average, they’re learning

      - matt and allison... try 

      - seth and aaron don’t even try and never show up to night practice because let’s be real, it’s seth and aaron

- but hey, andrew’s really improving (probably because of the extra attention neil’s giving him) 

- he’ll mess up and neil will be like “you need to-” and andrew’s like “SHUT UP I KNOW” and neil grins because he totally doesn’t

- spotting someone’s tumbling is pretty up close and personal

- everyone ships it quietly and these idiots are so oblivious

- when andrew lands his first back handspring everyone cheers and he fails to not smile just a little

- they consume so much ice cream in celebration and alcohol

- of course this stuff takes time and by now the season is near over

- they have their trojan game and they work their butts off (even if USC has only ten players) because they don’t want to have to use their trump card yet and they manage not to, though renee almost does when the trojans score on her

- they move on and oh my god it’s the ravens

- they manage to not whip out the crazy shit until the second half, but then everything gets insane

- the first time they do it is when andrew and kevin make eye contact when riko has the ball and kevin knows he can’t stop him

- he gives andrew a nod that he meant to be subtle but he was too excited so it ended up as a very sharp upward jerk of his chin in the vague direction of riko

- andrew would have rolled his eyes but there was no time

- neil would have too if he wasn’t about to explode on the sidelines

- andrew flings himself back at an angle that would have been ridiculously dangerous if he hadn’t been practicing, slams the ball, and springs with his hands back upright

- the stands go wild.

- the vixens cheer their throats hoarse.

- the ball goes straight to kevin

- the next one is when kevin pulls the same aerial he used last time, but it gets blocked because nothing really works twice on the ravens

- from there it’s down to the now-very-gymnastic foxes versus the insane hardcore that is edgar allen

- some highlights:

     - someone tries to do a battering ram thing at dan and she does a toe-touch over him

      - kevin does seven more aerial shots; four of them make it in

      - andrew pulls out the stuff only one other time but when he does neil almost cries

- the final few seconds of the game:

      - THE GAME IS TIIIIIEEEEDDDDD

      - riko fires high-speed at the goal and andrew s m a s h e s it down the court, directly at the raven’s goal.

      - the goalkeeper is surprised yet still gets it, but just barely; he hits it out of pure reflex without aim and it goes right at kevin. with one second left kevin passes to seth (who is very surprised) but he rebounds it into the goal and his Redemtion Arc™ is Complete as he encapsulated in a group hug

- after the game, everyone celebrates together, seth is happy, neil is happy, neil finally mAKES A DAMN MOVE

- and wow look at the news:

“BREAKING: Edgar Allen striker Riko Moriyama’s suicide?”

- and everyone lives happliy ever after

HS AU Halloween Special - Post-HS Andreil Roadtrip

We’re still asking for prompts, but here’s a little test run from our old AU.

A clatter sounded out from down the unlit hall, the torchlight barely piercing through the darkness. It lit up the ground at his feet, at the very least, showing tufts of grass between cracks in the tiles.

Something wet hit his shoulder, seeping through his shirt and making him shiver. Out front, the sign had said that this was a hospital, back in the day. Now it barely seemed like the usual clinical buildings, looking like it housed more dead and dirty things than the contrary.

“Neil!”

That was Andrew, still bumbling round the entrance. Neil had told him he was just going to look for a less mosquito-infested place to pee, but considering the state of this place, it wasn’t much worse for wear.

Footsteps, coming towards him.

“I’m leaving you, asshole,” came Andrew’s contrary words. Neil huffed, smiling into the darkness. Even if Neil had left the keys in the ignition, Andrew wouldn’t have left for the life of him.

“Have fun explaining it to both my mothers, Coach, Kevin, and Dan, love,” he muttered to himself. Though Kayleigh and Mary wouldn’t have been surprised if he’d died exploring an abandoned old hospital to piss, they would’ve at least sent Uncle Stuart, and how Andrew hated doting Uncle Stuart.

The footsteps came closer and closer, and now that Neil thought about it, maybe it wasn’t coming from the entrance.

He whipped around, swinging his torch wildly. He swore that the roaring in his ears couldn’t have possibly been his own heartbeat.

Andrew kept talking and walking. His voice was getting closer and closer, which was a relief because Neil was definitely not scared out of his wits. “Why couldn’t you just pick a tree and piss. No, you just had to go into the stupid, foreboding abandoned building that’s falling apart and standing right next to the fucking corn field.”

Andrew’s footsteps stopped, but something—or someone—else kept getting closer. Neil winced as Andrew blinded him with his little keychain torch. Neil grimaced and pointed his light at Andrew’s face, his pink hair turning shockingly white in the blinding light.

Neil put his light away, glancing around warily. “Glad you could join me.”

There was a frown in Andrew’s voice as he said, “If we get murdered in here, I’m going to kill you first. Now, go piss on the nearest wall so we can leave.”

“So bossy,” Neil huffed, but his feet were turning towards the general direction of the entrance. The footsteps that had been approaching him followed.

Voice lowered, Neil said, “We need to go.”

Andrew sighed, “No, you need to go. Then, we leave.”

“Andrew, I’m serious. We’re not alone.”

That shut Andrew up, and Neil would’ve made a joke of it, if the thing—the person— hadn’t taken another step towards them in the dark.

Without thinking, Neil grabbed Andrew’s wrist and ran for the entrance. The skid of their shoes on the cracked tile masked the sounds of the footsteps, but Neil didn’t care just yet.

He hoped to God neither of them tripped.

Andrew dropped his keychain but neither of them stopped until they could see the car’s headlights in the misty evening.

They were both panting as they reached the car, fumbling with the doors as they jumped in. Andrew turned the key and stepped on the gas, sending dirt flying behind them and propelling them into the misty night.

Once Neil’s heartbeat had finally settled, he laughed. Andrew gave him a look, but his shoulders lost some of its tension at the sound.

“I told you so,” Andrew said, barely heard between Neil’s panicked laughter.

Neil grinned. “Yeah, yeah you did. But I wasn’t going to risk getting shit on by fae because I pissed on a gnome or something.”

“So you wanted to piss in an abandoned hospital instead?”

“How could I have known it was haunted?”

“It’s an abandoned hospital, of course it’s haunted.”

Neil let his next words settle between them, knowing that Andrew would keep debating this until he got tired. Andrew, in turn, let it stay there.

No words were said until Andrew finally found the main road and was going 75mph. “There’s an empty bottle in the cooler in the back, if you still need to piss,” he said.

Neil took a deep breath, then sighed. “I don’t need to go anymore.”

h ey theres been a drought of hs au and im severely lacking kevin + neil being bros content so,,,,im begging

“he knocks, right?”

this question was aimed at the door. neil glanced at his closed door and shrugged. andrew didn’t like that shrug.

neil looked back at andrew, “privacy isn’t a huge trend here. or in london either. why?”

footsteps were muffled behind the closed door, but the walls were thin enough to sound out kevin’s chuckles. neil said he was probably watching something dumb. not that andrew really cared.

knocking sounded out. neil made a soft sound and pushed to stand. “and bob’s your uncle.”

andrew gave him a look, but said nothing. britishisms were the least of his problems.

neil put a hand on the knob. “what is it?”

“you two decent in there?”

“why do you care?”

“dad got takeaway but hey, since you don’t seem to want any...”

neil wrenched the door open, revealing a hunched down kevin with a shit eating grin on his face. neil gave kevin a not-soft punch, then kevin waved at andrew inside the room.

“you staying for takeaway?”

andrew shrugged. “what’d he get?”

kevin squinted down at his phone. “mcdonalds.”

“i’m staying.”

“oh. cheers, yeah? don’t make out in there.”

neil scoffed, “you’re so british.”

“piss off.”

“you too.” and with that, neil shut the door and went sat back down on his bed so that andrew can pull him closer.

7 hs au with the twins!!

“In my defense, I thought this would go a lot more smoothly.”// send us prompts!

a continuation to this

aaron startled when a tote bag dropped by his feet. he looked up to see his brother, gazing in at the office. aaron rolled his eyes. glad to see someone had priorities.

“hatford’s in there with coach wymack. none of them believed me when i said it was my idea so the coach is presenting the boys will be boys account,” aaron explained as he went through the tote bag. it was his gym clothes. or andrew’s. it was a toss up at this point.

andrew gave him a look. “and how many brain cells died and told you it was a good idea to fill condoms up with water and throw them at jocks?”

aaron shrugged. “in my defense, i thought it would’ve gone a lot more smoothly. you know, if the math teacher wasn’t on sight and hatford had any impulse control.”

“he doesn’t.”

“how was i supposed to know that?”

the door to the office slammed open, startling the lady by the desk. kevin looked fresh from the shower, and incredibly flustered. his eyes landed on the twins, then narrowed.

“where’s neil?”

andrew said, “get in line, day. i have some words with him too.”
