'"You're a Fox," Andrew said, like it was that simple, and maybe it was.'
I could've added a lot more details to this and it's not 100% accurate to the book, but I had to stop myself or this would've taken me another week to finish lmao

Lovely isn't he.
I finished the third book.
It's been a few days already but with work and stuff... Anyway now I'm digging through the additional content Nora posted on Tumblr, took me a while to understand how it works but now I am pleased.
I cannot express the emotionnal damage these books have done to me, but I'm not finished drawing any of the foxes. Just saying.

Andrew is the favorite uncle. Not just for Aaron and Nicky’s kids but all the foxes kids are just obsessed with uncle Andrew.
None of the foxes understand why except for Neil. But that only because Neil is there when Andrew gets up at three am to answer a phone call from their sobbing niece, who admits for the first time out loud that maybe she isn’t a boy and “is that okay uncle Andrew”. Or when Kevin’s kid shows up at there house after getting in an argument with her dad and Andrew lets her rage and rant until it doesn’t seem like the end of the world anymore, then walks her home (hc: they live pretty close for a while cause their on the same team). Or when nobody can get Aaron’s twins to stop crying but as soon as Andrew is given a turn at trying to calm the babies they stop immediately.
The kids all love Andrew he’s the first one they go to with their issues, he’s the first one they run too when all the foxes are together, he’s the first one that they come out too if they’re queer(Nicky is so mad when his kid comes out to Andrew before him)
He’s just a really good uncle.

you ever think about how there might have been some college athlete living in he tower who had to hear Andrew and Neil's convo late at night on the roof cause they were on the last floor and opened their window
imagine hearing the 'youre a pipe dream' or stuff like that while you're brushing your teeth or putting together a late night snack or trying to fall asleep or something

Whenever any of the foxes are slightly inconvenienced by someone enough to complain about them, Neil always asks, “Do you want me to take care of it?” And everyone usually just laughs it off as a joke, but it is very much not a joke. Neil Does Not Like when people mess with his people. At all. Even slightly. Only Andrew, Kevin, Renee, and Aaron know that Neil is not joking.
It comes to light just how much Neil is not joking when some guy Allison was messing around with in her last year hurts her. Not horribly, he hurt her feelings more than anything, but when she tried to leave his dorm, he’d grabbed her arm hard enough to leave it bright red, minor cuts where his nails had dug in, and her elbow hit the doorframe when she jerked away so it was swollen and hurt to extend fully. Neil asks, “Do you want me to take care of it.” Allison tried to laugh it off, make it sound like a joke when she told him, “Yeah, actually. That’d be great.” But it’s all Neil needs as permission.
So Neil digs. He listens to the rumors, talks to a few girls, and watches him from afar. And then, one day, he’s gone. Nobody can find him. There’s an investigation, and the campus is swarmed with all kinds of law enforcement, and nobody can figure out what’s happened to this man.
Andrew asks Neil if there’s even anything left to find, and Neil tells him plausible deniability is a thing for a reason—Andrew’s grumpy with the lack of details, so as revenge, he tattles. The teams talking about the guys disappearance in the locker room before practice, and Andrew nonchalantly says. “You gave him permission.”
Neil just glares but, when questioned further, just shrugs them off. Tells them not to worry about it. He tells them what he told Andrew. Plausible deniability. Not that it’s necessary, really. The police won’t find anything, and Neil knows what he’s doing. There is nothing to lead them back to him.
After that, they learn to take Neil much more seriously when he asks if they want him to “take care of it.”
