don’t leave this in the tags bc ur right…
when i first created the next gen foxes blake was the frontrunner (quickly sidetracked by these two hopelessly pining boys).
once andriel take in blake and elliot it takes her a while to stop mothering elliot bc it’s such a deeply ingrained thing for her to do by then. although he’s only a year younger than her, she took the mantle of his guardian bc he needed someone. he had undiagnosed/unmedicated ADHD & anxiety (despite teachers clocking it easily) bc of their parents, and dyslexia that he only got help with in school. blake had helped him with homework and reading since 5th grade, defended him and brought back to the surface when he got overwhelmed and overstimulated as a kid. it was natural for her to take up the other responsibilities after their mom died.
i try to show how blake still finds herself parenting elliot unintentionally every once in a while. but the thing is, she doesn’t know how to parent bc what she was doing back with their bio dad wasn’t parenting, that was surviving. she was barely 16 when she met andrew, and she’s now still only a 20 year old kid that makes mistakes and doesn’t know best.
in a social media au that’s hard but i did it with these two text threads, for example:
#sorry i just love these siblings#aftg#neil josten#next gen foxes#next gen foxes social media au#all for the game#the foxhole court#andrew minyard#palmetto state university#social media au#elliot minyard josten

What are your thoughts on Neil and Katelyn being friends? Either in your au or just in general. Personally I’m insane about it
SAME
Like if you’re asking realistically, if I was to write a post canon Neil and Katelyn friendship it would be that they don’t actually seek out each others company, but when they DO get together it is chaos for the twins. Like no one expected them to have that much or that kind of energy around each other. I don’t even know if I can describe it, it’s something adjacent to a sibling relationship with a wordless agreement to mess with Andrew and Aaron as much as possible and also having that step-sibling vibe that is both ironic hate and a little bit of real “still not a huge fan of u”. I do like Andrew being better with kids so Neil doesn’t necessarily have a special in with kateaaron’s girls.
But they get along completely well enough and are comfy around each other. My weakness for better post canon relationships for everyone strikes again
In the royal au it’s similar, obviously it takes even longer for Abram to be comfy/casual around the queen but once he is they have a fine time when they happen to around each other. As stated previously, he sometimes ends up watching out for her at parties and stuff bc Katelyn has always been incredible at sneaking away from her people - if she isn’t on Aaron’s arm she’s gonna be on Abram’s and like at least halfway drunk, if she’s not somewhere on the floor dancing. Since this universe (or at least Palmetto idk) doesn’t have super strict policy on dances and stuff, sometimes she convinces Abram to dance with her as long as there’s someone else near enough to keep an eye on the room around the prince. Andrew always rolls his eyes at their friendly/sibling-like affection but he’s also relieved Abram’s relaxing enough to allow it. He always lets Abram go dance (Andrew himself keeps the same arm-length distance from Katelyn that he does from everyone else). Aaron doesn’t mind either, HE’S just relieved she picked someone capable of protecting her to go drunkenly talk to when she disappears (he also likes the way she lights up when Aaron eventually comes to collect her. She’s very happy to see her beloved husband and I love that for them).
Anyway Queen Katelyn is very sweet to Abram (bc she’s a sweet person) and eventually yes they ABSOLUTELY cause chaos for the twins hehe
Find the royal au writing masterpost here 💕
#rip prince and king Minyard#wouldn’t it be kind of funny if people started wondering if Katelyn and Abram were like long lost siblings#bc I LOVE having them look similar lmao#unimportant tho#just know. from the day Abram sees the queen leaning into the ‘kings been sleeping around’ accusation/misunderstanding#he starts to realize#huh#this could be funny#and he’s RIGHT#Andrew and Aaron need Neil and Katelyn#both for personal separate reasons#and because they’re the only two that can match the twinyards when they’re teamed up#Minyard family game night is INSANE#fan art#my art#aftg#all for the game#neil josten#katelyn#royal au#asks

so thought for aftg/ a kit among foxes slight au art thing ig if you can call it an au anyway
but do you guys think that stuart has kids or is married or has kids older than neil and then those kids have kids or that nathan had siblings I know that there's an au where David is Nathan's brother and I follow that like its drugs
but basically a thought came when I was sketching poses for elio art and about one or two have another kid in them I'm aware I can just make the kid casey (my first aftg kid oc who won't get a fic just cuz icba may get a one shot here and there) but casey is about 9-10 in 2007 which wouldn't make the height of the poses make any sense so
do we think that neil has cousins who have their own kids who are like toddler age so like 3-5 like it would make some kinda sense for Stuart to have kids even if they wouldn't inherit anything from his crime stuff but like would it mak3 sense like so do I make an art piece with a grandkids of Stuart or do I make some random kid from elios school
#all for the game#aftg#the foxhole court#neil josten#andrew minyard#the kings men#the raven king#aftg oc#elio josten#casey hart#ghost tings#like would neil have cousin's#would stuart have gotten married and had his own kids#does nathan have siblings that neil doesnt know about#david wymack being nathans brother au#stuart hatford#a kit among foxes wip

Deals With Devils by ToadlilyAUs [Rated M, 142394 words, incomplete, last updated June 2023]
Neil is on the run with his mother for three years before his father catches up to them. And after finally being handed off to The Ravens his life is never the same. After three more years of brutal training and abuse at the hands of Riko and Tetsuji, his life is changed yet again on the day Kevin Day runs away to the foxes, leaving him and Jean Moreau behind to suffer the consequences. Six more heinous months after that, in the summer before his long promised debut, he's finally allowed to leave the nest...but he's still anything but free. As the list of friends and allies grows, so too does his list of problems. How much of himself is he willing to give away to keep the people who matter to him safe? And how many lies and secrets can he stack on top of one another before his house of cards comes crumbling down?

Part 1 of the glass series
“Who even are you?” Neil blinked at him with those perfect, blue eyes. Andrew became very aware of Neil’s weight at that moment and dropped him. Neil bounced back on the bed and yelped. “I’m the guy who is going to go take a shower and you’re the guy who is going to wait patiently for Kevin to come tend to your needs,” Andrew said. He gestured down to Neil’s blanket covered body. “Whatever this is, is above my pay grade.” [AFTG Crime AU that takes place in Baltimore where the Foxes and Raven's are opposing gangs. Neil escapes the Nest and falls for Andrew, but Riko will do anything to get him back. Kevin and Aaron tumble headlong into a secret relationship and Jeremy Knox fixes a very broken Jean Moreau.]

Not Yours To Bleed by Coffeexandxangst [Rated E, 90858 words, incomplete, last updated June 2023]
The Pros were never in the cards. Not for an ex-medicated alleged psychotic with a dysfunctional family and an Exy career he’d rather not have. But even if it wasn't his first choice, no matter what happens, it can’t possibly be worse than that one fucked up sophomore year when he stood toe to toe with the Yakuza-and won. At least, that’s what Andrew thinks until a familiar face shows up. Another Raven!Neil AU. Or, the one where the boys don’t meet until the Pros.

Neil's second year brings changes. Things slow down and continue softer than they have ever been in his life, Andrew's at his side and they are working on being able to not be together 24/7, he can play Exy to his heart's content, he has a home, a family, a soulmate. He also has Jack and Sheena getting on his nerves, papers to write, Aaron's trial coming closer with each passing day, paranoid habits to break, ghosts to fight when he closes his eyes at night and real-people things to consider like bank accounts and taxes and so. much. more. He also has Andrew, their roof, their bond, their kisses, their touches and the promise of a future that is theirs, to grow and play and live. But things are never that easy for Neil Josten, are they?

Neil rolled over and stared up at the ceiling. He’d get to play exy, eat regularly, and sleep somewhere with heating- presumably. Not a bad way to spend his last months. And hey, maybe his mother would come back from the dead and kill him herself if he went to Palmetto. Little victories. What if Neil gave up completely on making it through the year when he went to palmetto? What if Neil just did not give a single fuck? Maybe things would turn out better.

After Andrew moves to Colorado to start his professional Exy career, he intends on everything being okay between him and Neil. But when his self-destructive tendencies tell him that he doesn't need Neil Josten in his life, everything goes to shit. Things between them seem unrepairable and he's not so sure he wants to even try. But when Neil gets into a dangerous car wreck, Andrew finds himself back at the junkie's side with a deadline to fix things or walk away forever.

Neil was the pervasive lie Andrew had foolishly allowed himself to indulge and been unable to shake. A person who would stay? Fairytale. It wouldn’t last. Forevers didn’t exist for him. With graduation on the horizon, Andrew makes the hard decision to leave Neil before Neil can leave him. But after a year, Andrew starts to wonder if maybe he was wrong. Maybe he can have it all.

The Minyard-Josten siblings!
Note that these three are NOT part of the same universe. They do not coexist but I wanted to draw them together anyways
Milo is Neil’s son from my fic: We’ll Both Be Fine
Maya is Andreil’s biological daughter from an old idea
Ollie is Andreil’s adopted son from my prototype Milo
I’ve never introduced Oliver before and it’s lowkey cuz my sister AU shames me and told me to throw him away (cuz I literally have no use for his character anymore) but I couldn’t do that to my bby and somehow I thought of him again in the past few days :’)
When We’ll Both Be Fine is finished, I will make a collections fic of all my prototypes/drafts/and extra content for the Miloverse which will include a oneshot about Oliver aka the original Milo design

if you really want me to say more i will start by telling you that jo bennett has always reminded me of andrew minyard. also gavin/carter is kinda like jeanaaron only because gavin reminds me of jean way too much...like you could put someone else in carter's place but gavin...jean would 100% turn into a wolf to avoid like literally everything in his life ever. not to mention the long lost sibling. there's a lot i have to say about this apparently i didn't even know i had this many greencreek thoughts excuse me while i think of rereading
LIZ
LIZ
Andrew as Joe and them not speaking after the fucken traumas VS me having a Speak AU about Andrew 😭😭😭
both Aaron or Neil would work SO WELL for Carter omg... like even tho Kelly is the ace rep he's way too sweet and conventionally smart to be like Neil... cuz Stupid Neil 🥹 in Jean's voice?? with that Marseille accent??? DEAD.
Aaron as Carter the stupid 'straight' i live 😭 😭 😭 upon my last reread Carter really soared high thru my faves and this is the maraschino cherry on top
tho what if i said GORDO (my love) as JEAN (my beloved)??? Kevin and Mark?? the parallels????? i can't i can't i can't
(i need to know what you think about the cover redesigns)

WIP Wednesday 4/10/24 (Closed) | Smalls AU
She looks back at Betsy and she's looking so patiently at Janie that she gets in that moment why even someone like Andrew Minyard would feel like Betsy's ok to talk to. She decides not to care if that is just a facet of her being written that way in this moment. She wants to talk to someone about at least some of what is going on with her.
Her memory is perfect. She remembers so much of her previous life. Her hometown, her mom, her dad, her siblings, her friends, how hard she had worked at college, all of her favorite books and games.
She just doesn't know a damn thing about Janie. Janie might not even have anything to know, she was just supposed to be a plot contrivance for Neil Josten to join the Foxes. Janie doesn't have a past for Janie to remember.

Aftg Rdr2 AU
This absolutely unhinged au came to me last night, and now I have to share it. I realized as I was matching characters to rdr2 characters that in this au, the Van der Lindes are significantly less doomed.
Foxes(Van der Lindes)
Wymack- Dutch, this is easy, though he would be much less unhinged than the real dutch
Andrew- Arthur, andrew can draw in this au! Arthur just makes so much sense for andrew at his core. I think instead of improperly prescribed drugs, the focus can just be on alcoholism and the debts.
Aaron- John, if andrew is arthur, aaronn is john. I think their pact would have to be different and they might just be adopted siblings in this au. Adding the arthur-john sibling dynamic to the minyard twins would be really fun
Katelyn- Abigail, because aaron is john, katelyn has to be abigail roberts. Jack exists in this au as their son. Love an au where katelyn and andrew are besties
Nicky- Josiah Trelawney, I originally went with Javier for him, but trelawney works so much better! He's gay, he has a ring of 'men down on their luck', he has a secret family in saint denis (Erik!); it's perfect!
Renee- Charles, renee was difficult, but I chose charles because of how he is torn between his identities. She would obviously not be christian, and I think it would be more of her discovering more about her identity as she connects with the Wapiti and her indigenous heritage. Also, Charles is Arthur's bestie (and more in canon if you believe in charthur, though that would not be a factor here)
Bee- Hosea, this was chosen mostly because of bee's relationship to andrew, but also she'd be so interesting as hosea. We'd really get to see her mischievious side :)
Abby- Grimshaw, it fits best for her role. I think this au implies a polycule between abby, wymack, and bee
Dan- Tilly, Tilly is sister to Arthur and I think her personality is in line with Dan
Matt- Lenny, he's the closest fit, but it's a bit of a stretch. I don't know how lenny's backstory would mesh with Matt's. If anyone has a better match, let me know.
Allison- Karen, they are loud, confident, and bitchy. It's an easy match
Seth- Sean, this is less a personality match and more of a role in the story match. Sean's relationship with Karen meshes on well to Allison and Seth too.
Kevin- the one character who doesn't have a match to an rdr2 character. I do have an idea about how he fits in with Kayleigh Day and Riko though
Neil- Sadie, this is another character where the role in the story matches well more than personality. I think he and mary would have been at that homestead and mary was killed there. His father is Nathan Bronte, crime lord and puppetmaster of the political leaders in saint denis
Kayleigh Day- Annabelle, annabelle has zero backstory other than that she died, similar to Kayleigh Day! I think she was involved in the creation of both the foxes and the o'driscoll(ravens in this au) gangs and Testsuji killed her sparking the rivalry between the gangs. Kevin was raised with the O'driscolls and fled to the foxes when Riko broke his shooting hand
Antagonists:
Tetsuji and Riko run the O'driscolls and work with both the Brontes (wesninskis) and Ichirou moriyama, who is a wealthy businessman in blackwater with ties to both the criminal world and the pinkertons. Also a friend of Leviticus Cornwall.
Jean was stolen as compensation from some poor family and is considered riko's property
Misc Characters(chosen for what was funniest):
Roland- Fence in Emerald
Jeremy Knox- Albert Mason
I'm having a lot of fun piecing this au together and I might turn it into a fic if it gets that far!
#all for the game#rdr2#this is absolutely unhinged but I'm having so much fun combining two special interests#definitely an au for me and me alone

this is like the crack everything is happy there is no angst au of The Reveal but it entertains me to no end that everyone could just find out in seconds through coincidence
---
katelyn gazed at neil out of the corner of her eye. she forced a nervous laugh to startle itself out of her, but there was only so much disarming charm you could lay on someone before they began to see through it.
neil had frozen, unresponsive and unknowing of how to reply.
nicky was squinting at them, holding his hands up as if framing a photo, "you know, i can kind of see it. similar jawlines, the bridge of your nose is the same. this is so freaky i cant believe ive never noticed."
"were not related." neil choked out, and it was the least convincing denial anyone had ever heard.
"are you sure?" allison giggled.
neil kept his gaze on andrew's. "we're not." he tried again, but the damage had been done.
"neil." katelyn began. she wanted to tell him that he wasn't helping them any, that his refutations were more suspicious than if theyd outright confirmed it. but, to say any of that, even in another language, would increase the suspicion even more.
katelyn could understand his anxiety, even if it was inconvenient. theyd put so much work into keeping anyone from finding out, especially andrew. to have it all undone within seconds.
neil seemed to realise he needed to control himself better. his demeanour shifted, no longer caught off guard, but instead an artificial anger, "we're not. leave my family out of this."
he stormed off. andrew followed after him. it was a weak cover, playing into the assumptions that he came from a broken home, but the foxes bought into it too easily. all, except the minyards.
aaron kept his eyes locked on katelyn. the foxes broke off, uninterested now that the confrontation had ended and the asshole katelyn had been fighting had lost his edge. finding his way to her side, aaron led them over to the dancefloor.
it wasnt a slow song by any means, but aarons hands found their way to katelyn's waist, her own encircling his neck as they swayed gently in their own corner of the room to their own beat.
"josten?" aaron asked.
"we both changed our names." katelyn admitted, quiet beneath the bass; she knew aaron would find the words anyway.
"fuck. youre really his sister?" aaron's head fell to her shoulder. it was katelyns favourite thing about the few inches she had on aaron; feeling him resting against her.
"yeah." katelyn released the secret out into the open.
"fuck." aaron dragged out the word, "i cant believe im in love with jostens sister. fuck me, we'll be brothers in law one day."
katelyn thought back to the looks andrew and neil shared. the four of them seemed to be destined to stay within each other's orbit no matter what.
---
allison at the end of the night: so, we all agree that neil and katelyn are actually siblings then?
dan: oh yeah definitely
You know what would be hilarious?
Foxes and Vixens all in a shared space. Maybe a college party? Non-Fox/Vixens present too.
Through shenanigans and chicanery, Katelyn and Neil spare some Attitude to the same person on separate occasions that evening. Unrelated encounters mind you. Neil and Kate haven't even directly interacted all day.
Later on, Foxes and Vixens are gathered. Auburn Haired Neil and Strawberry Blonde Katelyn are nearby each other simply by virtue of the Twinyards hanging close to each other. The receiver of the Attitudes is there. Looks between the "red heads" and makes a wayward comment about siblings.
Record scratch.
Blood Hounds For Drama Allison and/or Nicky ask for clarification - are they saying they think Neil and Katelyn are related???
Uh,,, yeah? Red hair? Attitude Problem? Attracted to short and stocky blonds?
Silence.
And then,
Chaos

Alice Minyard
Her heart was beating ridiculously fast as Wymack looked at her, his hand on the doorknob. Behind this door were the Foxes. Behind this door was her cousin. Behind this door were her brothers. It felt like a dream, a surreal and incredibly weird dream. This couldn't be true. She was an abandoned child, she had no family. Yet behind this door were the people who should've been with her for her whole life. She felt like it was yesterday that she had found out she had two older brothers after stealing the papers her social worker kept about her. She had also found out the name of her mother - Tilda Minyard. And then, one day, after she had been playing Exy for almost a year, she saw them on the TV. Andrew and Aaron Minyard. So she had done some research on these two boys who looked unbelievably similar to her. It was a good thing that she has always been very good at hacking. And now she was finally here. "Are you ready?" She had totally forgotten that Wymack was standing right next to her. Somehow she managed a quick nod. She wasn't ready at all. Her heart was about to explode. Wymack had warned her about Aaron and Andrew. The reunion of the Minyard-siblings would probably not turn out like she imagined. But after eighteen years of way too many Foster families she was used to things turning out differently towards how she had imagined them. Wymack hadn't told the twins yet that their sister was coming. According to him, he hadn't even told Dan or Kevin who she was. He has only told the Foxes that they were getting a new freshman. Wymack opened the door. She was late to arrive. All the other freshmen had already been with the Foxes for weeks now. She was late but she was here and there was no turning back. All the eyes where on her as she entered the room. Almost all the eyes. She found them immediately. They weren't sitting next to each other, which didn't surprise her. Aaron sat next to a tall boy with ruffled dark hair - Nicky Hemmick. Her cousin. Aaron looked at her with a bored expression. Andrew was sitting on Nicky's other side, next to him a red-haired boy, who she recognised as Neil Josten. Andrew wasn't looking at her, he was looking at Neil. She flinched as Wymack cleared his throat. "Guys, this is our newest addition. She's a striker," he declared. "We don't need another striker," a boy protested. She didn't recognise him so he probably was a freshman as well. "Our lineup can always use more players, Jack," Dan Wilds, team captain responded. She shot her a quick glance, smiling but it was obvious that she didn't know what to think of her. "What's her name?" a blonde girl asked Wymack. She recognised her as Allison Reynolds. Wymack started to talk, but she interrupted him. "I can speak for myself. My name is Alice Minyard." The room went quiet within a second. Alice felt the blood rising in her cheeks, making her pale skin look red. She didn't dare to look at Aaron and Andrew. She was afraid to witness their reactions. For so long she had been waiting for this moment and now it was finally here. The Foxes looked at her with their mouths hanging open and their expressions blank. Even Kevin and Neil were shocked. After seconds or minutes or hours of silence someone finally reacted. It was Nicky. He got up from the couch and walked slowly towards Alice. He rose his arms carefully, probably knowing from experience that a Minyard didn't like to be touched without giving permission. At first Alice was confused but then she realised that Nicky wanted to hug her. She slowly rose her arms and he immediately threw his arms around her and squeezed her. "Welcome to the family," he said. Over his shoulder Alice got a glance at her brothers. They both stared at her, Aaron with obvious confusion, Andrew with a blank stare. It wasn't what she had hoped for. It was so much more. She had finally arrived.

Dead Girl Walking
Heyyy so I have another fic rec 😅. Anyways its called Dead Girl Walking by deadangelo on AO3 its also on wattpad too. I really like it I don’t wanna spoil it too much but its about an oc called Mara West she was in the nest with Kevin and joined the foxes with Kevin too. Its really good and really sad too and gets u a little on edge. She’s linked to Neil’s past and everything unfolds as it goes on.
Just keep those fic recs coming, @yougotnoreasontobeafraid, it’s always great to find something new and spread the word! - S
Dead Girl Walking by deadangelo [Rated M, 217311 words, complete, 2022]
From prodigy to property, from future Raven to current Fox, Mara West has never known what it was like to have control over her own life. She has never known a life that wasn’t under the shadow of one monster or another, so when she flees in the night and ends up at Palmetto State, she is careful not to get comfortable.
She knows Palmetto is temporary—she knows no Raven, future or otherwise, ever leaves the Nest. She knows Riko will come to collect and her freedom will be snatched away like every decent thing before. She knows the hourglass her life’s always been following will run out of sand soon, and this freedom won’t last.
She knows this—but hope is a wildfire she can’t seem to run from.
