#Neils like yeah

[spfswithchipotlemayo]

Neil, on the bus back to Palmetto after the Ravens game: So you know how I promised not to lie to you guys anymore? Uh... Last night I was taken in front of Ichirou and watched him blow Riko's brains out. Also Tetsuji is stepping down as coach. That's really going to affect their next season. We'll have to train to beat the Trojans in the final next year

Everyone else: .... Neil

#just completely blew by the big news #riko dying will affect neils future less than a coach change in the ravens #so hes like why should we talk about that part #foxes are horrified #kevin is actively trying to die of alcohol poisoning #they ask wait couls you have died last night by Yakuza? #Neils like yeah #so? #i didnt #aftg #neil josten #the foxhole court #all for the game #andreil #riko moriyama #ichirou moriyama

I love this gay ass show with its literally life ending injuries that heal immediately, but only when convenient to the plot, and its ridiculous use of modern phrases, and its laughing in the face of historical accuracy, and its kissing the face of the fans instead of trying to outwit them, and the way everyone involved in the show seem to go 'I KNOW RIGHT! I'M EXCITED TOO!' instead of mocking the fans

#i have so many feelings #i can't quite express the way everyone involved seems to want us to love the show #like when you love something so you show it to a friend and vibrate with excitement while you watch them love it #so that you can scream about it together #it feels like djenks and the writers and the cast and the crew are in on the joke *with* us #which contrasts so sharply to the way so many fandoms find themselves to *be* the joke #the joke being how much we love the show #the fact that everyone involved cares *so much* about the show is really obvious #not just this is a fun show but this is a *meaningful* show #i truly have never felt so much like i have a community as i have with this show and the fans of it #it is also one of the only shows i can think of (maybe some of neil gaiman's adaptations?) where the trademark over analysing and meta #and theories of the fans isn't ridiculed #this ties back into the being in on the joke thing #back when we didn't know blackbonnet was going to be *canon* canon #and djenks reaction to us freaking out that we were RIGHT was basically #well yeah? #i want to write a love letter to everyone but i don't know how #ofmd #mine #our flag means death #david jenkins #ofmd s2 #ofmd 2 #kissing david jenkins on the mouth

as shifty as they were when they were younger, at the actual age that andreil are at do you think they've got the potential to be friendly strangers? like not overly friendly but the kind of people who understand what being human is

think about it, the experience of living a sheltered life and neil is standing behind someone in the grocery line, watching them unable to scour up money for ramen and water so he pays for it to help things along

andrew watching a little kid peer into his mega expensive car of the year and the kid gets scared of him and moves aside but andrew opens the door moves back, tells the kid he can have a look its fine

do you think they would interfere by force if they ever saw something bad happening in front of them? neil on his runs stopping to help someone cross the road, feeding stray cats in alleyways, yk the people who know what struggle is and don't want it for anyone else?

idk if they're the type to shrug off injustice so easily, i feel like whatever they learnt as children is buried deep inside the caution and fear of strangers and all but maybe what wymack taught them would rise to the surface too cuz if wymack hadn't chosen to help them they wouldn't be alive either

#sometimes i think about how neil cried when wymack passed away #and nora said in the EC thats one of the times andrew actively held him cuz he didn't know what else to do #yeah idk im in a mood #ofc this isn't just for andreil it applies to like kevin and aaron and nicky and all the upperclassmen too #might write more abt them too #aftg #tfc #neil josten #andrew minyard #andreil

Neil Josten is 100% the kind of guy who can look at the sun and figure out exactly what time it is and his general location.

#Writing a bit in surely and yeah #100% he's got that #Like does not need a compass or a watch #If he's wearing a watch it is because Andrew got it for him or to track his fitness #Neil Josten #AFTG #AFTG Headcanon

[fortheloveofexy]

it's a pet peeve of mine when ppl frame Andrew as hating Aaron and being needlessly cruel to him... bc while yes, their relationship is fractured and strained, Andrew genuinely cares about his brother and wants the best for him, he just doesn't know how to show that in a normal way.

like he might not know how to express it in a healthy manner but Andrew LOVES Aaron, like he truly just wants Aaron to be healthy and safe. It's like, his whole Thing. Aaron is one of the most important people in his life. Andrew wants him around. He'd do anything to protect him.

I guarantee Andrew wants to be emotionally close to Aaron too, he just doesn't have the tools to do that and the thought of letting someone in terrifies him. He also has no concept of what a healthy sibling relationship looks like, so he has no frame of reference to work from.

#i love bickering twinyards as much as the next guy but sometimes ppl write andrew has if he thinks aaron is a waste of space #and that just isn't true #andrew values his brother #he wouldn't insist on keeping aaron close if he didn't #when ppl do this is just so obvious to me that they're using andrew as a mouthpiece for their own dislike of aaron #and like ok yeah you're entitled to not like a character i guess #but it's just so wildly out of character to me for andrew to treat aaron like shit for no reason beyond Being Cruel #like yeah andrew can be mean when he's feeling defensive or trying to make a point #and yeah he can treat people like shit if he's got a reason to justify it like Keeping People Safe #but he's not needlessly cruel to the people closest to him without cause #like neil says #everything andrew does #he does For A Reason #even neil isn't needlessly mean to aaron tbh #like he doesn't like aaron much at certain points but if he picks a fight with aaron it's never without cause #and he's genuinely happy for aaron when things work out with katelyn in the end #and he wants aaron to have a relationship with andrew as well! like it's important to neil that the twins have a healthy bond!! #anyway im getting off my soapbox now this is just something i was thinking about today a Lot #aftg #all for the game #the foxhole court

So when Neil Josten wants to keep a binder full of news clippings and pictures as a shrine to Kevin Day in a way to hold on to a good but tainted memory of his childhood and a life he can never have, no one complains. But when I, Riko Moriyama-

#listen i did not lie to you when I said im always thinking about the shrine room 24/7 #but yeah. you guys rememberer how Neil made sure his emotional support binder would be kept safe in New York while he was at the Nest #and then saw Riko's room and was like “wow what a creep why would he do that” #mr josten the call is coming from inside the house im afraid #riko moriyama #neil josten #kevin day

Neil just reeks of the same energy as those fanfiction authors who casually leave the most batshit insane personal updates in the writer's notes

#Neil bursting into the lounge ten minutes late for a team meeting: sorry im late #everyone: all good? #Neil: yeah yeah my science lab blew up and they kept us to do all these emergency tests in case anyone was affected..whatve i missed coach? #or #Neil: *gets back to the dorm hella late* #the others: ??? #Neil: oh i had to go to court. it took forever but they finally dropped the manslaughter charges #or like #after psu‚ one of the foxes texts him just to check in and he responds three days later like my bad i got a nasty hit last game and needed #to go to the hospital. i just got out tho what's up #aftg #neil josten #mine aftg #bangers

Dude some of those popular so-bad-its-good movies are unironically outsider art and I don’t think they get enough appreciation for that

#Neil breen is absolutely an outsider artist #Mark Regions ‘after last season’ is an outsider art film #yes they are bad movies but they are so unique in how they’re made #the decisions don’t really make sense bc they aren’t rly drawing from how other films are made #or from any technical knowledge of film making #those decisions are entirely from whatever is going on in the creators mind lol #of course the most popular one of them all The Room also is outsider art #genuinely very cool to me that the movie is so beloved lol #like yeah it’s enjoyed in an ironic way it’s unintentional comedy #but I think a big part of that enjoyment comes from the insanity of it #it’s so uniquely Tommy Wiseau no one else could have made it #these movies are SO sinciere

↖️ Andrew needs some way to make the spurned and eavesdropping nearby noble even more angry, and if he can do it by being sweet with his guard/consort? What a shame 👀

So Abram returns the favor in a slightly different manner ↘️

#Abram ONLY knows how to do things with/for the prince by being completely genuine about it #yeah andrew means what he says and does but there’s sometimes an excuse #usually it’s ‘i need to get these other people off my back so I’ll make it obvious who I’m interested in’ #but Abram? #he sees this and says ‘oh okay. I can do nice names too’ #‘I liked it when Andrew did it so let’s see how Andrew feels about it’ #and 100% of the time #Andrew dies inside #(in a good way) #now how often are these names *actually* spoken aloud? #probably not too often #but if it’s peppered amongst their letters that’s their business #fan art #my art #aftg #all for the game #neil josten #andrew minyard #andreil #royal au #chibi

Why am I seeing people suddenly saying Good Omens s2 was actually badly written? It was a fun little journey into the lives of Crowley and Aziraphale with lower stakes than s1, it was a lot of fun and that’s what it was supposed to be, fun. Does the fact that the plot is simple and a little goofy means it’s badly written now? Why? Not every show has to be mind blowing high brow super deep and meaningful, sometimes they can just be silly. 

Hell, What We Do In The Shadows is 5 seasons of dumb vampires doing stupid stuff with no plot whatsoever and it’s one of my all time favourite shows, sometimes we can have just that and it’s ok!

#good omens #good omens 2 #good omens season 2 #ineffable husbands #aziracrow #Gomens #gos2 #I started reading that 16k essay and it’s really interesting but come on #really #and then I saw other people saying s2 is good just because of Michael and David’s acting #what happened to just enjoying a silly little goofy show?? #Yeah the ending was devastating but that’s because s2 only exists to get to the plot of s3 #The one Neil and Terry developed years ago #I mean it’s valid if you didn’t like s2 but saying it was badly written is just weird #wwdits #mine

Wymack, Bee, Nicky and Kevin are so underrated in regards to how fundamentally they helped Andrew. Without them Andrew would never have anyone to even take a chance at him. Without Wymack, he wouldn’t have college and exy, without nicky he wouldn’t even have a “home”, without Bee, Andrew’s mental state would have been way way worse, and without Kevin, Andrew wouldn’t have a purpose.

Neil may be the catalyst and Andrew’s main reason to actually live. But these four people (and Aaron) are Andrew’s cornerstones, his foundation, are what’s holding him up before Neil josten even existed.

#I’m so done with people disregarding these four/five people when they mention how Andrew healed #like yeah ofc we know neil is the main reason #but without any of these five people Andrew minyard would have been beyond help even with Neil #Andrew minyard cannot put his entire being in just one persons hands okay #also I rmb in the EC Nora Said that the two deaths Andrew wouldn’t survive after tkm is bees and Neil’s #Andrew minyard is Just so important to me I need him for my well-being #aftg #all for the game #tfc #the foxhole court #aftg series #aftg fandom #andrew minyard #aftg incorrect quotes #neil josten #andrew joseph minyard #aftg headcanon #aftg thoughts #tfc headcanon #aftg andrew #aftg andreil #aftg kevin #aftg fic #aftg trilogy #betsy dobson #David wymack #kevin day #nicky hemmick #aaron minyard #aftg nicky

Neil pining for Andrew and not even realizing it is so funny, but what’s even funnier is that at some point before Andrew tells him, he does notice. And just chooses to ignore it - he literally compares his and Andrew’s relationship to a romantic one and then goes ‘I’m just gonna file this away for later.’
