I get that the fandom likes to compare Mary and Tilda bc of how they were both abusive towards Neil and Aaron respectively and how Neil and Aaron still love them but there definitely are some huge differences.
I think that in canon Tilda treated Aaron like he wasn’t particularly wanted whereas both Mary and Neil knew that Neil was Mary’s whole life. I think the main difference is the level of priority in which they treat their sons Tilda acts as though she doesn’t care about Aaron whereas Neil is fully aware his mother prioritized his survival over literally everything else.
I also think of how they influenced their sons. I think of Mary as like a shadow version of Neil someone who Neil has a lot in common with and similar backgrounds but ultimately if Neil ended up like Mary it would be incredibly dark and bad. Aaron is like Tilda’s antithesis. someone who is deeply loyal to family (holding on to Andrew and Nicky, still loving Tilda) and very hardworking and dedicated wants to be better than where he came from. Neil still uses the skills he got from Mary and ending up like Tilda is Aaron’s worst nightmare.
U know what aftg mothers should be compared more often though Cass and Maria.

You wanna know who I'm thinking about today? Cass. Cass Spear.
Cass who washed the bloodied bedsheets and never asked questions.
Cass who saw the scars and bandages peaking out from beneath Andrew's shirt and never got him help.
Cass who knew what was happening and decided not to say a word.
Cass who fostered more kids after Andrew, knowing what Drake had done.
Cass who wouldn't even look at Andrew in court. Because looking at him required accepting what her son had done, what she had allowed to occur to multiple children under her roof.
Because no amount of evidence would change the fact that Cass loved her rapist son more than anyone else, even the little teenage boy willing to do anything for a family.

How many signs do you think Cass missed when she first got Andrew and how many more did she miss when Drake started abusing him? How many signs did she ignore in order to protect her son? Cass had six kids after Andrew and who knows how many more before him. Cass had to have know so how much did she ignore? How hurt do you think Andrew was when he realized Cass had to have known the whole time and willingly chose to ignore it in order to protect the predator she raised? How much did Drake get away with because he knew he could? How badly did it hurt when Andrew realized Cass never truly loved him and never would? How awful did Andrew feel at that trial? So much ignorance. So many turned heads. How much different would Andrews life had been if Cass had just loved him more than she loved her piece of shit son?

Dream clouds, ghost ground (I’ve been looking at the sky to show me where I went wrong), [Mature], 11457 words
Summary:  Cass Spear deals with her son’s death, the truths that it reveals, and how it all reshapes her past with Andrew.
Cass Spear had only ever wanted to be a mother. Today's THEN fic is a poignant character study about her, the aftermath of Drake's death, and Aaron's trial.

I think one of the reasons, among the already overflowing list of reasons, Andrew hated Tilda so much isn’t because she gave him up or even because she hurt Aaron, but because she's so similar to Cass; it hurt to look at her. He hated her because he would have preferred her abuse over Cass's willful ignorance. Because he knew without a doubt that if Tilda had even suspected someone had hurt Aaron the same way Drake and all those other men hurt Andrew, she would have killed them. Tilda was an abusive piece of shit, but she loved Aaron in some fucked up way that meant only she could hurt him and no one else. Andrew would have preferred that kind of love over whatever the fuck Cass gave him because at least then he'd have understood it. Maybe he wouldn't be so mad at Aaron for loving Tilda back. Because no matter how hard Andrew tried, he couldn't love anyone, especially not Cass, back.
Idk if this make sense the way it does in my head but I had to share 😂

Cass telling Aaron that "holidays were rough because there were changes in the house" and to try again in May? leads me to believe she knew what Drake was doing. maybe I'm reading too much into it, but-

Hey. What if Andrew never knew about his real birthday until he met Aaron. What if the system decided to give a random date or had a fixed date for all unknown birthdays handed over to him. What if he eventually pretended to forget it since it was never a pleasant reminder that he's supposed to have a day for himself, but probably never will. What is Cass is the only person who cared enough to ask for it, and made sure Andrew felt special on his day. What if Drake too wanted them to be special.
Another reason why Andrew hates the concept of birthdays. Because they have never been associated with anything good. Having his real birthday fall almost months away from his fake one is marginally better tho.
So Neil never says it's a birthday. He never says it's special, or it's his day. Both of them treat each other's birthday as nothing but just a few milestones both have crossed. That they have survived. They never say anything, it's just that they're happy enough to be present with each other; the few good things that have stayed with them.
