IM SO GLAD YOU LIKE THE IDEA

ight guys it's time for me to continue my reread of the foxhole court I left off on page 12 because I already know what's gonna happen and shit but along of it from the first two books I've forgotten cuz haven't listened to em since 2018-2019 but you lot bet I listened to the last one multiple times, so what I've read so far the first meet hit scene where Andrew slams a racket into Neil's gut like ugh love the violence also can we talk about Kevin's intro scene cuz "I'm not good enough to play with a champion" and Kevin just like hell yeah you ain't bitch byut he gotta act cool so "true but irrelevant" like he knows he's the shit love him for that will update when I finish chapter one and or finish or get halfway through chapter 2

deciding to just edit this one as I doubt anyone has seen it just but just finished chapter one and my god Neil repeating I'm sorry fucked me uup a bit but Andrews line "too good to play with us, too good to ride with us?" like I adore this fucker and his remarks it's just pure gold.

“But if you forget to reblog Madame Zeroni, you and your family will be cursed for always and eternity.”

uhhh update on elio uhhh so elio was either born from 98-2000, (ik I keep changing the years but like I've seen people say neil went on the run at 8 which would mean elio wasn't even conseveied or he went on the run at 10 so really all I'm doing is just adding that neil is most likely 2 years older than elio, so the whole born in 98-99 thing is because that's what the fake birth certificate says that elio josten was in late September of 98 or 99 I haven't figured that out yet however I may elio actually have been born in late December of 2000 so elio is like 5 in tfc and then 6 post trk also elio is quite short for his age and no one really questions it cuz neil is short so.

also uhhh I'm still doing elios character sheet however I can say that elio does have a favourite fox and uhh it is/was seth so wooo guys seth gets a small character arc of accepting a kid dorming with him and than becoming attached to said kid so yay

you mean to tell me ppl think they smell nice, like they don't they stink, smoke isn't always a nice smell, although cooking smoke is its own smell, but cigarette smoke is awful smelling

i love watching this fandom discover the fact that cigarettes don't smell nice actually

my parents both smoke and did my entire childhood so I've KNOWN Andrew minyard reeks of red Marlboro cigarettes as if he bathed in the smoke

I know for a fact that I've made that one promise on like the 26th of August that I would get elio art I never did uhh I swear I will finish the sunflower dress sketch/drawing soon like later on as I have shit to do uhh I will also start to work on a kit among foxes chapter 1/ (chapter title thing) and will post a snippit of that may be written in my notes or notion I'm unsure but I promise i will do these things

heck I may even start the princess and the pauper katelyn, neil au if I ever get a plan in my head so yay that will be a wip thing tho not a fic for a while

you know the thing where a character is so full of trauma that their personality and personhood is buried deep within and it takes time, space and healing to coax it back to the surface, little by little? very good trope. i think it most often manifests as a character finding that they're kind and gentle and lovable. which is great. love a healing narrative.

anyway the thing about neil josten is that once you manage to override his instincts to flee long enough, is that he turns out to be such a bitch (affectionate). he's spent so long avoiding notice and slipping through fingers like his life depended on it (because it did), but when he's forced into the spotlight he's going to make it everyone's problem. catharsis and schadenfreude two for one deal

THANK YOU

"happy 19th birthday junior"

it's my birthday tada

mw with aftg characters and hotd characters including my own ocs like they all get put through so much shit that just makes me wanna hug them and care for them and make them all chocolate cake

Hey you ever think about The Characters so much to the point where

anon just say you don't know how cults work, like it's not that hard to say just say you don't get how they work its quite simple, if you won't shot on any of the other ravens and only Thea than that's very strange going with she's the only canonical black character,

i wanna agree with you on thea and i understand she went through the raven's cult and i recognize that trauma/experience but she considered, Jean —who was underage when it started— being used sexually and I'm even willing to be she knew he didn't ask for it because she's not stupid and has been in the team long enough, "old tricks." to me that's shitty. And her overall attitude is much too dismissive/demanding for someone that didn't involve herself to help and just get answers to understand a situation she didn't even plan to BE involved with.

She's a fine character, well written for the little importance and screentime given, but she's detestable to me and I cannot respect her beyond "I see you're a survivor and a fine player, for that I respect you."

That and their relationship (hers and Kevins) is the most undeveloped/boring of them so I have a natural bias against them as a couple too but that's obvious now

alright people this is the last time we're doing this.

the nest is a cult. thea was in that cult for five years. thea did not get out earlier, like kevin did. thea was subject to brainwashing and abuse. thea was isolated from essentially anybody who wasn't a raven. thea was 18 when she got there. thea would have known nothing but the nest and become desensitized to the abuse that happened there. she would have looked past and ignored what the master told her to ignore because that is how cults work. that is how brainwashing works.

if you think her attitude is "too demanding" when she wants an explanation for kevin ignoring her for almost two years, read the book again. consider why the only canonical black character in it is "detestable" to you.

GUYS GUYS ELIO CHARCTER SHEET DROP WITH QUOTES AND SOME SMALL INFO [small info focus on tfc] I TOLD YALL I DONT LIE I GOT IT DONE LIKE 3 AND A HALF HOURS LATE BUT OH WELL [yes Ik his age changed but its math correct so he is four not six or five I'm such a damn liar but oh well] [if you saw thsi before on my account no you did not]

short info: like Neil, Elio’s documentation is fake however, like how Neil has a legal identity Elio had one for a few weeks before mary had a death certificate made for a Aurelio Nat Wesneski much to Abram’s dismay, when coach Wymack came to recruit Neil, Elio had went to wait in one of the stalls in the locker and heared people talking but decided to wait, when Andrew had hit Neil in the gut with the racquet Elio ended up coming out of the stall worried and angry at the blonde, Neil waited till after the others had left to scold Elio for coming out of hiding.

on the plan ride Elio had clung to Neil as he’s scared of planes, after arriving Elio isnt as quick as Neil at picking up the difference between the twins gets worried for himself no Neil when hearing germen, disliked staying at Womack’s due to Neil being worried, stayed with matt and seth instead of going to columbia but mainly stayed under the bed covers hidden, when Neil got back to the dorms Elio clung to him again, when Neil and Andrew made the deal Neil explained it to Elio when the seats got rearranged Elio curled up on Neils lap or sat on the floor right by Neils legs.

Elios favourite fox at the time became seth as the guy has knowledge of raising kids, and he had found out about Elios love for mac and cheese, he had also gifted Elio a racoon plush toy [yes I've given seth a slight character thing even tho it was basically only Allison and Elio seeing it as he was an ass to everyone else]
