Neil and Allison or Dan and Kevin or Andrew and Matt

For Andrew and Matt there was a post floating around not too long ago about Matt basically being adopted by the monsters once the girls graduate and I’m just gonna full heartedly endorse that here

I think that the most obvious reason Andrew takes to Matt so easily once the girls are gone is because he fills that Renee shaped hole. Instead of sparring sessions, it becomes boxing lessons and it’s almost even more invigorating than learning how to use Renee’s knives

Matt is impressed that Andrew is such a quick learner and also a damned formidable opponent for someone who’s only 5 feet tall. After Andrew gets the hang of it, it’s practically a toss up as to who wins and they have a deal that the loser has to drive to pick up the takeout that night for their whole lot.

Speaking of driving, Matt continues to obsess over the Maserati and tries to convince Andrew to let him drive it. “Please Andrew, just once.” He’ll plead. It’s 100% of the time met with a cold and blank no but Matt doesn’t give up. “Okay but can’t I just sit in the driver seat and imagine?” Andrew is inclined to say no again but decides to indulge him just once with a casual wave of his hand as permission. Matt is all but squealing with joy when he sits in (after drastically adjusting the seat so he could even fit) and is ordering Neil to take a picture of him on his phone

Matt joins them on their weekly trips to Eden’s and in turn has taken to replacing Allison as Neil’s personal fashion designer. Together, Matt and Andrew will pick clothes for Neil with only minimal bickering. “Matt, your choices are too heterosexual,” Andrew states after boredly eyeing the black and navy hollister T Matt is holding up. The backliner rolls his eyes and says, “yeah that’s cause it’s for me. This is for Neil,” and he pushes something much tighter, thinner, and silkier into Andrews hands and watches a smirk spread across his lips

At the club, he drinks a bit but refrains from becoming as drunk as he usually did when surrounded by Dan and Allison. He laughs as he watches Nicky and Aaron stumble their way towards the dance floor. He notices the heated looks Andrew and Neil share and tries to discreetly nudge Andrews stool with his foot. “You guys can go enjoy yourself out there for awhile, I don’t mind. I’ll stay with Kevin,” he tells them while slinging an arm over the back of Kevin’s chair while simultaneously moving Kevin’s last shot out of reach (they were slowly trying to help him cut back on the alcohol) and Andrew held Matt’s gaze before giving a small nod of appreciation as he gently pulled Neil after him by the wrist

Without dan, Matt finds himself struggling a bit when it comes to studying. She was his go to study partner and even if he was bored out of his skull with usuelsss mathematical equations, he always had fun when she was there to help him. Now, he felt like he was drowning in schoolwork and by the time midterms come around, he cracks and asks Andrew to help him study.

“What’s in it for me, Boyd?” Matt sighs and says, “name your price. Whatever it is, I’ll do it I just can’t fail this class.” Andrew mulls it over and finds his mind drifting back to a couple months ago where Matt received a care package in the mail from his mom complete with her secret homemade caramel filled cookies that he had been kind enough to share. “I want your mother’s cookie recipe,” he said with the same tone as if he were negotiating a multi million dollar deal. Matt smiled and stuck his hand out to close the deal

Andrew becomes protective over Matt just as he is with the rest of his family even if he didn’t exactly plan on it happening. The first time that protection really manifests is during an exy game. The foxes were in a generous lead which had the other team spiraling and sloppy in their frustration. One striker, in a desperate and angry attempt to make a shot, made an illegal jab unseen by the refs with his elbow to the one chink in Matt’s armor where he knew it would hurt. Matt was on the ground and missed the way Andrew easily blocked the shot, but instead of sending it up court per usual he opted instead for going straight for the strikers ankles. A whistle and a warning stopped any more recklessness, but Andrew caught Neil’s proud smile under his helmet and Matt’s hearty laugh

With their friendship well and established, Matt can tell the twins apart as easily as Neil or Nicky now even though it used to trip him up in his previous years when they each wore the same scowl. Before one practice as the foxes were all heading towards the court doors, Matt was behind two freshmen who he vaguely remembered seeing hang around the vixens at one of their parties. He caught the sound of Katelyn’s name before one of them called out loudly, “hey Aaron!” Matt watched them struggle to get the attention of the minyard walking a few feet ahead of them before he finally smirked and placed his hands on each of their shoulders. He leaned in and said, “you know you’d have a lot more luck if that wasn’t Andrew up there.”

When it comes time for Matt to graduate, he definitely still keeps in touch with his best friend’s boyfriend. He frequently will send Andrew dumb almost nonsensical pictures of memes, but his favorite is when he sends pictures of angry looking birds with their beaks open or various other animals in similar poses captioned with “this is neil starting shit.” Andrew is a man of relatively few words so he takes to the iMessage feature of loving the images Matt sends.

Okay but the most important question about the books…

When Neil first arrives and [Andrew] picks him up at the airport, he drives like a maniac. His driving is mentioned nowhere else aside from when he gets clean and takes over driving…

So was he driving just to freak Neil out, or was he driving like Aaron and that’s why Aaron is not allowed to drive?

I just woke up from a dream where Andrew was listening to Jeffree Star's 2010 music on blast on his phone and... Brain, quick question: what the f u c k

What do you guys think the Foxes (or any aftg character) Myers Briggs personality type is? I want to type them but I want input first.

#damn dude this is amazing info

[deadliest-piece]

Neil and Andrew are short enough that their feet wouldn’t touch the floor on spinny chairs which makes it easier to spin even when you don’t intend to, therefore you can’t tell me the foxes haven’t walked in on them spinning around with characteristically emotionless looks on their face at least once

#andrew minyard #neil josten #do you think they ever get dizzy doing that or do they just not anymore

[I wanted to show you first], says the rest of Aaron’s message, sent after the photo. [You were the only person I wanted to tell. Before I remembered Nicky.]

Andrew supposes he should be touched. Other brothers certainly would be, and it isn’t as though he’s repulsed by the news. He does feel a little something curling ‘round his heart – albeit with a bigger something churning in his stomach – but he doesn’t know what to do with it.

Birthday Celebration. by OddlyBookish (Not Rated | 1,082 | 1/1)

The twins finally celebrate their birthday together.

two peas (in a pandemonium) by ephemeralsky (G | 4,089 | 1/1)

Nicky sits up straighter, legs folded underneath him on the couch, his excitement rising. “How about roller blading?”

“I still have bruises from when we went last time,” Matt says sadly.

“Miniature golf?” Nicky tries.

“We’re banned from all three mini golf courses in the city,” Aaron states bluntly.

Nicky inhales sharply, like he just realized something.

“Oh no,” Aaron says.

“What is it?” Matt inquires, sitting sideways on his chair at the desk to look at Nicky.

“Don’t,” Aaron whispers.

“Badminton,” Nicky exhales.

“Hell is empty,” Aaron says, looking up at the ceiling.

(or: the boys engage in sports in the middle of the night, Nicky makes crude jokes, Aaron loses a shoe, and the twins share a peaceful moment)

Buzzfeed Unsolved AFTG AU

But personality swap

Kevin is the skyscraper that’s fucking obsessed with yet terrified of ghosts and demons

Hailed as the Son of Ghosthunting because his mom invented the Spirit Box

Andrew is the short nonbeliever friend in charge of keeping Kevin alive, and his reactions swing wildly between laughing crazily and pulling pranks on Kevin (who nearly wets himself) and deadpan dismissiveness of all Kevin’s wacky theories and careful research, depending on what time it is 

When Andrew’s meds wear off during their overnight stays in “haunted” locations, Midnight Andrew is an absolute phenomenon, expressionless and rather philosophical about the marvels of logic and maintaining awareness of your own sanity

Seriously, watching the clock hit midnight on the night vision cam and the eerily-precise timing of Andrew’s face wiping blank is just…paranormally convincing

There’s a large part of the fanbase that believes Midnight Andrew is possessed or cursed by some kind of Monster, and the meds are a conspiracy cover story.

Kevin once tells Midnight Andrew “you know there’s a theory going around that YOU’RE a demon and the only reason I don’t have ghosts on film is you scare them away?” and it’s the only time Andrew’s smiled one of his true, small, cold smiles on camera. The fandom collectively shits themselves

Fans are called the Daylights versus the Midnightyards

happy bday kevin!!! time to cyberbully him

kevin day genuinely believes in the “if u have a dot on ur wrist ur prolly gay” post and this is why he’s started to wear those fuzzy athletic wristbands™️

it’s true, kevin does hate poor ppl. he shops exclusively at whole foods and makes avocado toast. he’s every white soccer mom.

british ppl block (@kevday) tweeted: long distance is a slow killing poison— via gucci toilet

kevin & andrew watch tru crime docs and kevin routinely goes on twitter to sleuth how ppl find these bitches hot

neil comes once but his contribution is that his dad knew some of these guys and kevin is suffiently creeped out

kevin converts to kpop twitter for a day before he wakes up three days later wondering what the fuck happened only to find that every single one of the foxes unfollowed him but jeremy sent him one hearty “stan loona”

jeremy & kevin Are on the same pro team actually they’re having a great time

kevin’s kids are weird bc one of them speaks english as a second language one of them skips around duolingo like she’s bar hopping and another one of them is deaf and Insists that he only has trouble in school bc she was meant to learn via audiobooks and books don’t have hands to sign w and he’s at a disadvantage

kevin ends up w 3 kids under the age of four before he retires bc of some weird exy benefit that they take care of ur kids while still on the job and he eats stress w spinach for breakfast

kevin hates the winter bc it makes his hand hurt so his kids write lil messages on it w markers like a cast and kevin actually loves his kids so much

kevin @ 3am reading through neil’s tweets: im joining the ira.

kevin gets more tattoos than any of the foxes besides maybe his dad. two sleeves and a full back piece and it’s Badass

kevin has like 60+ nike headbands for every occasion I stg

on kathy’s show for the 300th time someone should fire kathy: o ofc i think ur important. ofc i take this seriously. this is my formal headband.

kevin also has an unhealthy amount of crocs. the NCAA gave them crocs & croc decorations as part of their big “winning the championships” gift and he has his pair in a glass display case

kevin is the kind of rich bitch that has crazy pets. whatever his kids want. an octopus? sure! medina u want a star?? cool here u go! david u make sure to feed that pterodactyl urself we cant have u forgetting hard work just bc ur rich. david put your hearing aids in. david.

kevin is an airpod enthusiast and the gays don’t kno who he is but he makes himself into a meme by walking out of the apple store carrying like 20+ boxes in his arms

HE HAS LUIS VUITTON AIRPODS TOO THEY MAKE HIM CUSTOM ONES

i lov kevin

[deadliest-piece]

did u know that characters can be problematic and u can still like them without condoning their behavior, but liking the character and being in denial or straight up excusing a character’s shitty behavior? stop
