Kevin pushes his glasses up the bridge of his nose. Andrew, with his tiny wireframes, is always telling him to get glasses that stay up there. But Kevin’s been told the big tortoiseshell frames suit him. So there. He looks over to where Andrew is reading the back cover of something with distaste. He grunts. Kevin says, “What’s wrong with that one?” Andrew barely flicks his eyes up at him before reading, “Fairytale romance, for teens, there was only one bed, goblincore…” “Goblincore?” Kevin shakes his head. “What is literature coming to?” - Kevin and Andrew work at a bookshop. Jeremy and Neil visit more than they need to.

It's a crisp day caught between winter and spring. The plateau shivers, drawing out long gasps in the breeze.

Maybe once he meets this brother of his, then they can celebrate their birthdays together. Maybe they can give each other presents, and eat cake, and blow out the candles using the combined forces of their breath. Maybe, maybe, maybe. (Andrew Doe spends his birthday choking down cake that Cas got him, trying to hide the fresh marks on his arm, and thinking about the best way to keep his mysterious brother as far away from him as possible) (or: the Twinyards's birthday's through the ages, featuring very ugly ties, large sugar intakes, and lots of growth and healing)

“Ooooooh.” Nicky said, eyes suddenly bright and interested. “A boy? A boy you like?” “I literally cannot stand anything he does.” Andrew is quick to correct. “It won’t work, anyway. He thinks I’m a freak.” “Well, first impressions have never been your forte.” Aaron said snidely, obviously thinking of their own disastrous first meeting. “And how the fuck was inviting him to watch your mother’s cremation supposed to disprove that first impression?” “Our mother’s cremation ceremony.”

[orionchildofhades]

first I'll recommend checking @aftgficrec account and tag list, it's very well organized and really, you'll find something to your liking

but I'd like to recommend maybe a couple good fics still (all of them are finished and andreil)

Armies by nekojita, rewriting of the story if Neil had gone to the Hatfords at Mary's death, andreil obviously

say something by Willow_bird, post canon andreil with discussion of mental health and healing, selective mute!Neil, very cute, they learn sign language together

progress comes in small steps by Ominous, short series with post canon andreil and kataaron, wholesome twinyard and silliness

In Fender Fields by Dhillarearen, world war one AU, amazingly written, trans Neil and Renee, it's one of the best I've read

Odd Eye by tdashshirts, (my favourite), excellent take on Andrew being on the neurodivergent spectrum, showing how misunderstood he is by his family and team, a piece of art really (I'm totally biased but I love it)

does the dog die at the end? by stillmadaboutpetra, Neil doesn't go to PSU but still has his run-in with his father, he loses a leg. much later he meets Andrew, they get close, there is a dog, many dogs, it's wholesome

there's always more but yeah, if you don't know where to start, those are nice to get into the fandom :)

hii so does anyone have any andreil fanfic recommendations? I have entered the fandom late so idk what to read😭🙌🏽

[betsydobsons]

I once saw a post that was abt that Nora doesn’t understand how much money she would make if she wrote the whole series from Andrews POV, but I give you one better:

The series from Aaron’s POV

Imagine the chaos, the drama, the bitchiness, the kataaron content, the Baltimore scene, the battling pre med and jock life.... the chaos

[just-some-spoopy-shit]

au where twinyards meet later

events of the series happen pretty much the same

and aaron lives with nicky and erik in germany and goes to college there with katelyn and has nothing to do with exy

most of the backstories are the same, except for bits with the andrew knowing aaron/nicky

and then it’s later and kataaron have come back to america(with nicky? erik?) and he gets mistaken for andrew and people are like are you cheating on neil and aaron is like who the fuck no

and then they find andreil on the news and all the stuff about what happened during the books/while kataaron & nerik(?) were in germany

anyway and then they get so confused like why does this dude look like me 

and then they talk to maria/luther who they’ve all been ignoring the last like 7 years for being homophobic assholes but they figure they’d know the best if aaron had a brother 

and then luther’s like oop yeah she told us she had twins and left one but i figured it just died or something, and ig they don’t remember what aaron looks like having barely seen him so they didn’t connect the dots about andrew and anyway they don’t care about exy stuff

so anyway then shit happens that i can’t figure out because im not gonna write it anyway

[aftgficlibrary]

Ooooo i just had a thou- Andreil (or else at this point im desperate) (or maybe a cute kataaron) in a Gravity Falls au! ? This shit should be written!!!!! ❤

hi! i tried looking for a fic like this but unfortunately it hasn’t been written yet :( sorry!!-rachel

[thespineoftherighteous]

no but what if everyone just uses Renee the way Andrew did for difficult conversations

Allison needs to break up with someone (who is very much not grasping the concept of a one night stand) but she is not tryna deal with the mess so there goes Renee to explain

Renee nudged Katelyn and Aaron together for Katelyn when Aaron was subtly pining but couldn't take a hint
