You just don't get him like I do.

Wymack pulled a bottle of vodka out of the bag and put it down beside Kevin. “You have ten seconds to inhale as much of this as you can. I’m timing you. Go.” It was alarming how much a man could drink when he needed an emotional crutch. Wymack had to pry the bottle from Kevin’s desperate fingers afterward.

Kevin was silent for an endless minute, then said, “You should be  Court.” It was barely a whisper, but it cut Neil to the bone. It was a resentful goodbye to the bright future Kevin had wanted for Neil. Kevin recruited Neil because he believed in  Neil’s potential. He brought him to the Foxes intending to make a star athlete out of him. Despite his condescending attitude and his dismissals of Neil’s best efforts Kevin honestly expected Neil to make the national team after graduation.

“Good thing you’re not there anymore.” “Jean still is.”

“Let Riko be King,” Kevin said, with the exaggerated enunciation of the thoroughly sloshed. “Most coveted, most protected. He’ll sacrifice every piece he has to protect his throne. Whatever. Me?” Kevin gestured again, meaning to indicate himself but too drunk to get his hand higher than his waist. “I’m going to be the deadliest piece on the board.”

Before he stepped on Kevin tapped the butt of his racquet against the floor and passed his stick to his other hand. He stroked to half-court head high and left-handed and the crowd went wild.

Realising the Ravens played Exy the way Tetsuji wanted and the Tojans the way Kayleigh wanted, and that’s why USC is Kevin’s favourite team.

Lost With You 🫂

(let’s be honest here we all wanted to do the same thing while reading TSC)

Kevin Day:

[allfortheslay25]

Happy Birthday Nathaniel

I’ll have yall know I redrew his stupid face 10 times despite having colored and rendered the whole thing already

[violets-and-books]

Tetsuji: These are my Ravens. They are pedigree Exy players, each hand-picked and reared to perfection. They don't lose because they're too afraid to

Wymack: These are my Foxes, I found half of them feral by the side of the road, I'm pretty sure two of the blonde ones have rabies and they can shoot better than your Ravens can

Tetsuji: Wha-

Kevin: *scores a goal*

[elene78-blog]

When I think of a possible Raven Neil, I imagine him very different from the Neil of now. To what extent? Well... I think Neil would develop some kind of psychosis.

But not drugged Andrew type psychosis, no. He would be psychotic in the type that would bang his head against the wall if Riko tried to isolate him from the others (and that is his worst punishment, because Neil has lost some of his sanity and needs to have people around so he doesn't lose it completely).

A psychotic who puts rat poison in other Ravens' food if they bother him. A psychotic in the sense that he is unpredictable. Raven Neil lowers his head with a twitch in his eye when Tetsuji approaches him, but in his head he is thinking about how to make him fall down the steps of the stands and step on his head until his brains spill out. Smile imagining it.

Jean has to squeeze his wrist with the strength of a titan to bring him back to reality.

Neil thinks that everyone is his enemy except Jean, and thinks about how to get out of there, killing them all along the way.

Jean thinks about how to keep Neil's sanity and keep them both alive.

One of them achieves his goal.

What I would give to see Jean through Kevin’s eyes

Jean Moreau

once again thinking about the parallels of Neil going into the Nest over Christmas break for Andrew and Orpheus going into the Underworld for Eurydice. hows your day going though.

Pt.4

(The first one is a reference to Pt.2).

Let's play a game, do you know how many homoerotic friendships Kevin Day has?? WRONG! There is no right answer. He has sexual tension even with a plant. It's a trauma response. He's very... Passionate?

Do I ship Jean and Renée? No. Do I still believe they are the right person at the wrong time? Yes, yes I do. He has a soft spot for her.

The last one might be just a funny tweet or it might be Jean figuring out Kevin has a problem with alcohol and wondering what happened to him because Ravens can't drink right??? He didn't escape one prison just to be locked up by a beverage of all things. Why didn't the Foxes notice? Why do they not care? Does someone look out for Kevin or do they think that it's not necessary anymore since Riko is dead-

I'm rambling. They mean so much to me.

Let me know what you think💐

[Pt.3]
