#neil as nathaniel

[andreilslovechild]

Dark AU

a universe where Mary never ran

or she tried but failed

and Neil is left alone without a mother

to suffer through his father's unique hell

a world where Neil is not Neil but Nathaniel

a world where Nathan decides evermore isnt good enough for his son

and so he trains him

hours and hours spent in basements with pigs and cadavers

slowly working the weakness out of his disgrace of a son

breaking him down before molding him back up into a newer better version of himself

And Nathaniel knows it

Deep down he knows it

but it's almost easier to believe it was his own choice

that he chose this

that he enjoys it

and soon enough his pretending becomes true

blood is a delicious shade of red

his smile is as sharp as a knife and just as deadly

he and his father still fought

oh they fought

but in this world, they fight over the slowest way to kill a man

the most painful wound to inflict

the worst way to be tortured

and Nathaniel has forever forgotten the softness of a boy unwilling to cause pain

Nathan trains him and Nathaniel trains and trains and trains

until the day Kengo dies

until the day Ichirou calls on him

until the day he's assigned to be Riko Moriyama's personal bodyguard

Nathaniel does not play exy

he hadn't played exy since that day long ago when he first met Riko and Kevin

and he's made it clear he won't be playing anymore

he will simply watch

it's easier to keep an eye on Riko that way

when he meets Riko again

he sees a kindred spirit

another man who feels accomplished only when crimson is spilled onto the floor

another man to whom screams are a melody of the most intoxicating kind

they immediately become friends

Nathaniel the only one who wasn't afraid of Riko

Riko the only one immune to Nathaniel's knifes

Riko's knives though

oh Riko's knifes were another story

rikos knives were the only ones Nathaniel was weak too

but if Nathaniel's knifes were ones of destruction and pain

rikos were ones of pleasure and art

the blades cutting just so into Nathaniel's skin to create beautiful pieces of art

to create brands that stayed for as long as Nathaniel lived

blades that sent sparks of pain and pleasure straight to Nathaniel's cock as Riko sits on his dick while branding him with his own initials

cuts that shiver and itch underneath his clothes while he watches Riko come alive on the court from the bleachers

scars that glow white under the florescent lights when he cleans blood splatter from his knife grin after disposing of a threat to his king

and then he returns to his raven-haired king with his wide black eyes and his visions of art that he creates on Nathaniel's body with his bloody pen

there's something very funny about wymack recruiting neil and seeing him as this jumpy, cagey asf kid with alarmingly absent parents and then watching him befriend the monsters, speak three languages, start fights with riko moriyama, be incredibly apathetic to violence, join the perfect court and reveal that he uses alcohol as pain reliever because it's too dangerous for him to go to a hospital, unite the team and fall in love with wymack's other problem child, all for him to turn out to be the son of kengo moriyama's right hand man.

Neil could really have been a very suave criminal mastermind if he'd chosen to be. I'm rereading the kings men and the whole thing is basically just Neil gently manipulating people to do what he wants them to, and figuring out how to put anyone who won't come around to his way of thinking (Aaron) under pressure so that they just do what he wants. He wouldn't need to be as violent as his father, the guy just knows how to read people and figure out what they want, and what they can't afford to lose. He'd have them eating out of his hand if he wanted to do anything more than play stickball have boyfriend.

Neil Josten really spent his entire life on the run, then said “fuck it” just so he could shit talk a guy on TV. A true hater

"Grayson should have just walked away from Riko's tainted legacy and started over. He strung the noose himself when he came all the way here to put his hands on you, and I am not afraid to kick the stool out from under him"

NEIL FUCKING JOSTEN THE FUCKING MAN THAT YOU ARE
