This is page 48 of the first book. This is Neil’s first day with the monsters during summer. This is the first time they’re at the court. Andrew, get a grip.

nora sakovich, she wrote a series called all for the game. mafia, gay, sports, mental illness. y’know.

It’s like Nora saw the word peripheral and was like, ‘ damn that’s a good word’

and proceeded to write it 20 times in each book.

i love nora but seriously, im sending her a thesaurus

You know, I get it. Being raised as a superstar must be really, really difficult for you…

Hi! Your art is a breath of fresh air😌

If you'd want to, could you doodle Andrew naming King and Sir, and Neil being more than a little surprised at their names? (Idk if Nora said anything about who named the cats, I just like to think Andrew named them. For. Mental health purposes.)

Thanks!

Thank you!! (Nora said Andrew didn’t care, so Neil asked the foxes. Nicky suggested the names in the fox group chat, and they voted on it. When Neil told Andrew, he stared at him and didn’t say anything) BUT PLEASE ACCEPT THIS INSTEAD BECAUSE I LOVE ANDREW COMING UP WITH THEIR NAMES

Some of my favourite Andrew faces from multi character panels

[yes-or-no]

the foxes having a water fight after practice on a really hot summer day is something i LIVE for

they probably get so competitive.

there’s water balloons

and water guns

and it basically ends up monsters vs upperclassmen

and neil is just going rogue

he’s just squirting everyone he can

he aims his gun at andrew but lowers it when he sees the look on andrew’s face

and some how neils not wet??

even though he’s everywhere and shooting everyone

i guess his speed comes in handy for water fights

they do it in the parking lot outside the stadium

“there is no way in hell i’m letting you dumbasses to have a water fight on the court.”

“but coachhhh it’s hot.”

“nope outside now.”

anyway at one point everyone hangs up on kevin.

obviously

he doesn’t talk to anyone for the rest of the day

andrew, to everyone’s surprise, gets super into it??

he’s just throwing water balloons with a completely straight face.

neil can see the smile in his eyes though.

nickys giggling like a mad man

he skipping around and just throwing balloons with no aim

he hits like two poeple the whole time

and is soaked all the way through by the end

easy target i guess

dan and matt are pros

they do this a lot with their non exy friends

matt throws them super hard and it kinda hurts when he hits you ngl

aaron doesn’t really want to be part of it so he just hoards balloons and hands them to whoever needs some

renee has two water guns in her hands like a old western cowboy lady.

she looks hot and badass

as alway

wymack is standing to the side with the biggest smile on his face

cause these are his dorky kids

and he loves them so much

but if anyone asks or looks his way he shakes his head like he’s annoyed

no one believes him of course

abby is running around filling up water buckets and making more water balloons

because her kids are happy

and she doesn’t want that to end

people walk by and just laugh

because the big(or tiny) scary exy kids are laughing like five year olds while shooting water guns at each other.

finally they stop once everyone, except Neil, is thoroughly and completely soaked.

afterwards they go get ice cream

because it’s fucking hot out

and they are having so much fun they don’t want the day to end.

yeah i just love happy fox hc

#ahhhhhhhhhh

andrew, putting his hand on neil's forehead, frowning: you're really hot

neil, feverish af: thanks babe

[yes-or-no]

(small one today but) daily aftg hc: andrew and neil can agree on like four sweets, most of which consist of different flavored m&ms. neil likes the peanut ones the best. because andrew often eats food in small bites, they're one of his favorites, too. he likes picking through them slowly and separating them into different colors. because of this, he separates all the orange ones and gives them to/saves them for neil

Nothing

“I don’t get you.” Neil was laying on his back making pictures of the stars. If he squinted just right, he could make out a small fox paw. He turned to his head to Andrew, who was leaning up against the wall, refusing to give into Neil’s offer of the cracked concrete beside him. In Andrew’s hand was a half-burnt cigarette.

“What do you mean?” Neil asked. Andrew shook his head, raising the cigarette to this mouth.

“I can’t pin what you are.”

“Sure as fuck not your answer, apparently,” Neil responded, a smirk playing on his lips. Andrew shot him a glare and flicked the cigarette so it landed just shy of Neil. He settled himself on the ground, but stayed sitting up against the wall, watching Neil inquisitively from afar.

“You’re not good enough to be a hero.” Andrew said the words with little regard. Neil knew it wasn’t meant to be an insult, merely an observation, and it was fair. His chest took a small hit, though, as he realised what that implied. Because if he wasn’t the hero, that meant that he was... “But you’re not a villain,” Andrew finished. Neil glanced back toward him.

“Why am I not a villain?” Neil asked. He sat up to face Andrew, but Andrew looked away from him. Neil took the hint and lay back down, watching Andrew from his peripheral instead. Andrew pulled his knees up to his chest.

“You have every feature of a villain, determination, obstacles—“ Neil snorted at that— “threat, skill. You don’t have the emotions, though.”

“What does that mean?” Neil asked. He almost pointed out the exy stick he spotted in the stars but bit his tongue when he realised Andrew might damage his vital organs if he brought up exy right now. Andrew shrugged.

“You’re not angry,” he explained. Neil didn’t know what that meant either, so he waited for Andrew to keep going. “You’ve been wronged,” he said, “a lot. By a lot of people. But you haven’t tried to get revenge, you’ve just tried to get away.”

“So it’s settled. I’m the rabbit you’ve always said I was,” Neil joked. Andrew didn’t laugh, but then again, he never really did. Neil looked to Andrew again, and they locked eyes this time.

“No,” Andrew responded, pulling a packet of gum out of his pocket.

Neil thought it might’ve been grape or strawberry, but he couldn’t see in the darkness of the night. Never mint, though. Andrew had said mint was too harsh one time. The next day, Neil had bought him one of the kid’s toothpastes that tasted of berries and received a light punch from Andrew in return. He’d caught him using it since, though.

“You stayed.” Andrew’s break from the short silence startled Neil and he blinked. He was still looking at Andrew, who was chewing his gum slowly.

“What?” Neil kept staring, but Andrew had decided he’d had enough eye contact and shifted his gaze up to the sky. Neil, still lying on his back on the cold concrete, looked up too.

“You’re not a rabbit anymore. You chose not to be that day after Baltimore. You stayed and you chose to want.” Andrew said the words so simply, like he hadn’t just given Neil the entire world.

“I chose you,” Neil murmured, quiet and in hope that Andrew couldn’t hear him. It seemed to work, because Andrew didn’t say anything for a while, only sat across the roof from Neil and watched the stars.

He must’ve moved, because Neil heard shuffling before he turned to look at Andrew again. He had an arm up to the sky.

“That one looks like an exy stick,” Andrew said, once again with deadly simplicity.

When he looked back down at Neil, there was something almost like amusement in his eyes. Not at all similar to the sharp glint he had on his meds, or the defeated laughter from that bed in Nicky’s parents house, but something fond. Something Neil liked. The next words that came from Andrew’s mouth were simple too. But they didn’t feel small and they didn’t feel like nothing. In fact, it felt like an admission that Neil was no longer nothing, that this thing between them was no longer nothing. Andrew was quiet but determined when he whispered, “I chose you too.”

Neil blinked slowly at him, a silent agreement passing between their wide eyes and heavy heads, before looking up at the stars.

“That one looks kind of like Kevin,” he said. From his right, Andrew muttered an irritated “one hundred and thirty percent,” and Neil felt the beginning of a real smile twitch its way onto his face.

And for the first time in what could have been years, he didn’t try to stop it.

in german we don’t say “i wanna go apeshit”, we say “ich werd gleich fuchsteufelswild” which mean i’m gonna go fox devil wild, and I think that’s feral as fuck
