#his intent was to glue them all together but you can’t glue a bumpy surface do another bumpy surface

[neil-jortson]

Many people refer to Neil as the glue that held the foxes together, right? Well I think a much more apt metaphor would be that he was sandpaper that smoothed the rough edges of the team. He helped bridge the gap between the upperclassman and the monsters not by pulling as hard as he could but by whittling away at the sharpest, most painful, aspects of their attempts of friendship.

#his intent was to glue them all together but you can’t glue a bumpy surface do another bumpy surface #the sides would never connect if he hadn’t pushed them around a little until their grooves matched up #then he could glue them together #but first he was the sandpaper that allowed them to be able to meet in the middle without those bumps getting in the way #am I crazy? I might be crazy #my apologies #aftg #Neil josten #aftg hc #aftg thoughts #tfc #tfc hc #tfc thoughts #this like will probably show up in one of my fics so shhhhh
