Overgrown by PastelKnights [Not Rated, 3781 words, incomplete, last updated July 2021]
Most of the time, people wanted low maintenance, hard to kill plants. A good majority of the time, the masses wanted the same plants as one another, not confident enough to branch out and choose something a little bit different or one that might require a smidge more attention than another. That made telling people how to care for the plants a chore and by god did it make Andrew feel like he was a NPC in some sort of boring slice of life simulator.
When I Fade, Keep Me in Your Memory by demesh [Rated T, 25005 words, incomplete, last updated July 2021]
Neil Josten has a secret: he can flicker out of existence.
He can vanish with the turn of a thought; click his fingers, and suddenly he’s not there anymore. Invisible and untouchable, he becomes a living ghost.
Having promised his mother never to let his ability go, Neil teeters the line between faded and real, a person and an echo. He can’t risk getting hurt.
But then, one day, someone sees him when they shouldn’t be able to.
A (flower-shop) AU about how a faded and lonely Neil finds it in him to become someone real.
tw: panic attacks, tw: violence
flowers 'round your heart by moth_writes [Rated T, 1343 words, complete, Aftg Summer Exchange 2021]
Andrew runs a flower shop and Neil is his witching expert.
A day in the life.
Love Story by Nerdgoddess [Not Rated, 1716 words, incomplete, last updated May 2021]
Andrew and Neil fall in love, Taylor Swift style
The Art Of Speaking In Flower by waywardqueen [Rated T, 5169 words, complete, Aftg Spring Exchange 2021]
Lost in thought, Andrew almost misses his next words when the stranger slams a perfectly crumpled fifty-dollar bill on the counter and seethes out a "How do I passive-aggressively say ‘fuck you’ in flower?"
or
Alternate universe where Andrew is a florist who expresses his feelings the only way he knows how, cue.. flower deliveries with hidden meanings. With an oblivious Neil at hand, will he succeed in his 'salient' endeavour?
The Morning AUs - A Compilation by scribbleb_red [Rated T/E, collection, last updated May 2021]
Chapter 24: Bloom and Wither
Neil is an empathic necromancer running a small florist called Bloom and Wither. Andrew is a mysterious customer who belongs to the Foxhole Sanctuary.
AKA my take on the florist / necromancer trope with a few battles and winged warriors thrown in.
tw: violence, tw: implied/referenced rape/noncon
to hide their stolen air by oxymoronbby [Not Rated, 2863 words, complete, 2020]
“Get a job”, he says as deadpan as possible, because, fuck’s sake, he wants Neil gone so bad.
All Neil does is smile at him, taking his time. “I have a job. I’m on a break.”
“How convenient.”
Hold Each Other by exactly13percent [Rated T/E, collection, complete, 2018]
Chapter 33: Bouquet
Andrew is just minding his own fucking business when a ray of sunshine decides to blind him.
He's having a hard time being bitter about giving and receiving flowers.

Letters From Abram by Fortheloveofexy [Rated M, 10389 words, incomplete, last updated June 2021]
Struggling to find his next inspiration, Andrew Minyard is used to a quiet, boring life with nothing but his cats and his books.

(previously titled as: Reading Between the Lines)
tw: blood, tw: injuries
NB: accompanying art, dark academia Andrew by @fortheloveofexy [tumblr, 2021]
Fine-Tuned Afflictions by jensen_57 [Not Rated, 4625 words, incomplete, last updated May 2021]
Neil designs tattoos but refuses to get one. Andrew gives them and exchanges Neil's designs for anything and everything he can find. They skyrocket Foxhole Inks' business and have left him in stunned silence more times than he's willing to admit. So, why is Neil so against getting one of those beautiful pieces decorating his skin?
(technically could be considered just another tattoo artist/bookstore au)
True Love Waits series by thesaroscycle [Rated T, collection, 2 complete works, 2018]
part 1: I'm Just Killing Time (T, 10666 words)
He was sat in the most comfortable armchair in the back, the book in his lap closed but well-worn and dog-eared, one of the things that annoyed Bee to no end. His glasses sat on the table next to him, along with the hot chocolate Bee had made earlier in the morning that had gone cold. He stared out the window into a cloudless blue sky, squinting at the late morning sun and blurry trees. It was getting warm enough outside for the frost to melt on the grass, and late enough for people to start coming in. He couldn’t wish more for fall, when the sky would be gray and the chill would last all day rather than just early morning. Everything seemed to be holding its breath for the coming summer, for longer days and warmer mornings. Andrew couldn’t be less excited for summer; of all their town’s 70-degree-high summers, it was still hot enough for Andrew to melt in his stubbornly consistent black wardrobe.
tw: injured animal, tw: alcohol, tw: anxiety
part 2: Just Don't Leave (T, 7032 words)
Neil tried to ignore it. He really, really did. He was just trying to get to the Foxhole alley as soon as he could, sit in their heating and order something warm before he went to sleep where ever he could find for the night. Everyone else was ignoring the sound too, though, and he couldn’t help but wonder what had people looking away from something crying like that the same way they looked from him when he walked by. What he didn’t expect to see was a cat.
tw: injured animal, tw: alcohol, tw: panic attacks, tw: anxiety
Bookshop AU by @psych0midget [tumblr, 2020]
Andrew had thousands of followers.
He wasn’t sure how it had started. He was the owner of a small independent bookstore and he regularly hit the gym. Nothing more, nothing less.
Biker/bookstore au By @j3mjj3m [tumblr, 2020]
Andrew watched him swing by every Sunday, like clockwork. It was a crisp morning, the sky an untouched swathe of blue ink, disturbed only by a few hesitant puffs of white.
