andrew had only been at psu for a year before neil came which means he had to learn to trust renee very quickly (by andrew standards). therefore, i believe it was renee who introduced andrew to the truth for a truth game.

andrew’s there like right what’s the quickest way to make this woman fuck off? i don’t need friends, i don’t need anyone. right, let’s tell the truth, but you know, the ugly truth.

andrew, into the complete silence: i’ve killed someone and i’d do it again

renee, without missing a beat: get in line, we’re friends now 😁

random matt boyd hc:

you know those people who write in full caps? he's 100% one of them, and sometimes he'd leave notes for neil on the counter reminding him that he has cooked food ready for him in the microwave, that canned goods aren't his only option anymore.

at first neil thought he was writing like that to emphasize what he was saying, till he looked at matt's notes from class. all uppercase. yet somehow dainty ??

matt giving neil piggyback rides so that neil can feel tall. he also uses it as an opportunity to make short jokes

“look how small andrew is from up here, that’s how he always looks to me.”

matt then proceeds to go zooming across the parking lot to avoid andrew’s knives (he doesn’t set neil down either) so the other students would just see tall ass matt boyd nyooming away with neil holding tight to not get dropped while andrew is chasing them

the foxes leaving the court after practice. matt is ahead of the group, discussing plans for what they could do during the evening with allison and nicky when he gets hit by a vicious snowball to the back of the head.

he immediately spins around to find neil pointing at kevin who is in a very animated discussion with dan about all the things the foxes have to get better at on the court. neil’s face is one of pure and utter innocence, and next to him, andrew is a wall of impassivity with a cigarette already hanging from his lips.

matt grins.

he crouches down, makes a snowball and immediately fires it at neil who ducks just in time to avoid it. andrew steps away from them with a bored sigh to join aaron’s side on the sideline while neil quickly throws another snowball at matt, which lands right in the middle of his face. matt laughs, but it is cut short when another lands in the middle of his jacket from the other side. he turns around, and renee can barely contain her laughter.

all hell breaks lose after that.

the foxhole court’s parking lot turns into a snowball battle ground. there is no teams, it’s every man for himself except the twinyards who team up for half a second to shove freezing ice down nicky’s back. allison manages to toss one at both dan and kevin before they can react, kevin retaliates with a mighty scowl and a bigger snowball that lands against the side of her face. dan takes that opportunity to throw one at his face too. meanwhile neil is fully targeting matt, but when matt ends up charging at him then tackling him into the snow, he lets himself go down without a fight and explodes into laughter while he fake-wrestles against him. eventually, matt lets him go but neil ends up shoving snow in the front of his jacket and matt screeches. one stray snowball somehow hits wymack who barely walked out of the court.

he looks at the foxes with the face of a man who has too many children to handle and a barely suppressed smile then with a scowl, he herds everyone to their respective cars back to abby’s so they can all have something warm to drink and eat before “you dipshits all catch a cold and can’t play on monday”.

#you don’t understand how much i miss snow #like at this point i’m yearning for snow #so obviously i’m gonna project and pretend the foxes get a lot of it so they can be all happy together and have a snowfight because why not #matt and neil friendship supremacy #matt boyd #neil josten #andrew minyard #kevin day #dan wilds #aaron minyard #allison reynolds #renee walker #nicky hemmick #aftg #all for the game #aftg headcanon

I was wondering if you guys could find some fics where Neil brings up his past in casual conversation or his past gets brought up because of something he said or did

Also I've read a lot of the older soulmate fics where they can feel each other's pain or communicate telepathically and stuff like that but was wondering if there are any new ones :)

Ty u so much <333

There is so much material here I decided to split it into 2 parts, one with fics about Neil’s past, and one devoted to soulmate aus. Enjoy! - S

Neil’s past:

Andrew, I'm fine by AceSirenSinger [Rated T, 2081 words, complete, 2023]

Andrew passes through the door into the ensuite bathroom, and he freezes an instant before he understands why. The bathroom tile is smudged red, just so. Someone bled here, and then wiped it, too quickly. Andrew wants to call for Neil, but he is suddenly unsure if he is alone in his apartment.

tw: nightmares, tw: implied/referenced rape/noncon, tw: knives, tw: violence

Killer Bunny by godless_writer [Rated T, 6661 words, complete, 2023]

Neil started his second year in college thinking his past was behind him. His father was dead, Riko was dead, he was no longer running – nothing left to hide from. At least that is what he thought before six FBI agents barged into his team’s practice one day. Or The team finds out Neil had to kill some of his father’s men while on the run.

tw: implied/referenced murder, tw: implied/referenced abuse, tw: panic attacks

Bound for Error by confusedtoadd [Rated M, 22759 words, incomplete, last updated July 2023]

“You claim you’ve left your truth bare, yet you still lie, interesting don’t you think Nathaniel?” Neil was paralyzed, stuck between begging for her to stop and strangling her. They were a mix of his parents' wishes, his father's anger was bubbling over, his mother's survival instincts charged his legs with vigor. “Perhaps I should have stepped in sooner. No matter, they will know the truth soon, you did promise no more running, Nathaniel.” OR The foxes react to Neils life, pre-canon included.

tw: implied/referenced suicide attempt, tw: implied/referenced suicidal thoughts, tw: implied/referenced self harm, tw: violence, tw: blood & gore, tw: torture, tw: abuse, tw: psychological abuse, tw: panic attacks

Secrets by The_stars_ship_us [Rated T, 1265 words, complete, 2023]

Matt sees Neil's scars for the first time and Neil wakes up, still sleepy, and feels comfortable and safe enough to speak in his true accent

tw: implied/referenced abuse, tw: scars

The Best That You Can Hope For (is to die in your sleep) by Major_816 [Not Rated, 10840 words, complete, 2022]

The first time O’Malley saw the kid was in a low-level underground gambling ring, walls crawling with asbestos and next to every bastard inside armed with something sharp if not something packed with warped metal and gunpowder. He couldn’t have been more than thirteen, but he surveyed the crowd of the room with years more experience than he should have. There were scars cutting across exposed bits of skin, sick looking in the light of the place and stretching hotel-bible-page-thin over crooked bones. He was a wispy thing. Nothing more than a scrap of a boy stitched together. O’Malley was half-convinced a strong wind might blow him over, but the kid turned, those quick and clever eyes burning across the room and O’Malley could recognize that sort of fight instinct. He saw him again half a year later in Northern Florida.

tw: implied/referenced child abuse, tw: scars, tw: panic attacks, tw: dissociation

Broken bones by All_for_the_andreil [Rated T, 1126 words, complete, 2021]

Neil gets injured during a game and freaks out. Andrew finds out what exactly happened to Neil in Baltimore.

tw: implied/referenced torture

I guess I can drop the accent now by poly_pr1nce [Rated M (we say T), 495 words, complete, 2020, locked]

Neil reveals the final thing he's been hiding about himself after the Foxes win against the Ravens and Riko's death

...'ah yes, my shirt will cover this' by @jingerhead [tumblr, 2021]

This prompt is great, I've read some angsty fics about Neil getting hurt and they're great BUT I love the idea of Neil getting stabbed and he's just like.....'ah yes, my shirt will cover this' and everyone notices right away. I think something super angst or something more lighthearted would be equally great haha!

tw: injuries

once again thinking about the way Neil deliberately answered Kevin in English so Matt could understand their conversation

he didn't do it as a tactic against Kevin, but as a way to force the barriers the monsters had built around themselves to drop. to show Matt that he was just as much a part of the found family Neil was collecting as the cousins and Kevin were. he deliberately stripped himself of a layer of secrecy (something he has been building up around him his whole life) in order to allow Matt in

i get emotional every single time i read that scene because it's just SO GOOD

#aftg #matt boyd #neil josten #kevin day #neil and matt's friendship is just so special #i love all of these disaster stickball players #all for the game #god these books #the foxes and their found family dynamics get me every single time #i just love them
