one day neil shows up to practice wearing glasses

they’re basic thin frames, easy to buy and replace, not exactly his prescription but good enough

he’s all tired and disgruntled like “sorry ik glasses aren’t v cohesive for exy but i have a headache today”

but all the foxes are floored

after evermore they all knew neil had been wearing contacts and didn’t think anything more of it bc they were colored

what they didn’t realize is that those contacts had also been prescription, and after evermore he knew he couldn’t just put them back in bc duh he has blue eyes not brown

neil didn’t rlly consider it a problem because he knows how to deal w it, he’s had identities that didn’t have glasses/contacts before, and his vision isn’t so bad that he can’t function

sure everything’s a bit blurry and he has to squint to see things, but it’s fiiine everything’s cool

andrew and kevin already knew he wore glasses because he wore them in the dorm every now and then when he did homework

everyone else though?

matt is like wrow ok didn’t realize my neil josten crush could get any worse but . here we are

allison is appalled bc those are ugly ass basic frames and she KNOWS theyre straight up from walgreens.

nicky’s like huh so the patented neil josten bitch state was just ’cause he couldn’t see

dan’s thinking if she’s gonna have to invest (read: use the p card) in sports glasses

renee is honestly like can yall PL**SE let him breathe

aaron couldn’t care less he’s like i wear glasses i never see y’all actin like this u fakies!

but like after a sec they’re like tbh this makes sense

neil josten when he first came to palmetto? wide eyed. babey boy. baby. sometimes kinda rude but usually doesn’t care enough to be. squint level minimum but loads of side eye. wears contacts for waaaay too long someone get him eye drops

neil josten post evermore? squinty boy who’ll kill u w a look. rat. stunning but definitely could kill u. still babey but kinda scarey. why is he squinting at the scoreboard like that ???? RUDE BOY.

everyone lets go of it after a few minutes bc tbh a pair of glasses ain’t really a spectacle

matt tries to pull a “i thought we weren’t lying anymore neil 3’:” and wow ok THERE’S the patented neil josten bitch stare

when he can actually see you it’s 356485% more terrifying.

andrew thinks neil’s a dumbass for all of this btw he’s like. hey why do u sit in the back of class if you can’t see the BOARD u IDIOT

hey neil i’m not kissing u if u don’t wear ur glasses sorry :/

can u even tell aaron and i apart if u can’t see smh

but neil’s right back at him like boy i know u wear glasses too i’ve seen u steal aaron’s when u lose yours. why can’t u keep track of ur glasses when u have an eidetic memory like K.. . .

anyways so wymack pulls him aside after practice like. so if u need glasses. why don’t u Wear Them.

and HONESTLY. the tea is neil doesn’t even really think abt it. he’s sooo used to Not Wearing Them that he doesn’t think to put them on in the morning

he’s more of a contact kinda dude anyway ;P

so he’s just like idk coach i only Kinda need them they’re not like important

and david vincent wymack, oldie of unknown age but probably ancient and getting older by the minute, maaaaaybe has worse eyesight than he did 20 years ago ok.

maybe he’s squinting at the scoreboard too. maybe he casually makes the font bigger on everything he prints out so he can actually read it without pressing it up against his eye.

and he’s pulled the EXACT shit on abby like i don’t really need em doc i’m gucci :/

but he knows he needs them. and he knows neil does too before his eyesight gets worse

so he’s like ok buckaroo on god we gon get u some prescription contacts

neil’s like.. ehhhh i’m fine don’t worry about it

but of course. it’s the foxes. he doesn’t really get a choice here.

neil’s like they’re my eyes? i’ll do with them what i want?

so what if i want to stare in the sun i’ll DO it. maybe i LIKE not being able to see farther than ten feet in front of me.

of course it comes down to exy and kevs like b r u h , how u gonna see if i’m tryna pass to u.

and he’s like k ur rite lets go even tho i’ve been fine this whole time

he doesn’t end up booking an appt till the next week bc they have a game and getting ur eyes dilated #sucks

he ends up having to wear his new n fresh glasses (which are a much better style than $5 walgreens ones) for a few days while the contacts r being ordered

he’s still not a fan of the glasses bc he thinks they’re annoying to wear but he concedes to wearing them more bc contacts r a fresh hell

neil shows up to night practice w the same pair of contacts he’s been wearing since he woke up and is just. Irritated. so he wears the glasses around that time usually

as baffled as he is by the foxes insistence on the whole eyesight thing, maybe he’s mildly blown away by how he suddenly has less headaches and less eye strain now

and MAYBE his vision got worse since he was younger and had his first eye appt

and M A Y B E neil was lowkey shocked how hd everything looks when u can actually see

neil’s like omg look at the quality on that grass. unbelievable

ANYWAYS i’m just rambling at this point ! let neil josten see 2k19
