Neil sitting between Kevin's legs while they're watching Exy games
Neil making coffee after his morning run and bringing it to Kevin who is still in bed
Sleepy morning cuddles. Kevin as the little spoon
Kevin looking so infatuated after Neil scores an impossible goal
Inspired by Lex' tweet (https://twitter.com/exy_shmexy/status/1675057500482154498): Neil lovingly calling Kevin "Morgenmuffel" and Kevin getting frustrated trying to figure out what it means (despite the obvious context) and none of the Monsters are willing to tell him ("Morgenmuffel" literally is someone who's grumpy and not in the best mood after waking up; someone who generally doesn't like waking up early)
simple touch ❤️
andrew's mind palace
andrew, to neil: stop being so sappy
also andrew, to neil: here are matching armbands <3 also I bought you a phone <3 and even chose you the same song for ringtone <3 i GaVe YoU kEy AnD CalLeD iT hOmE <3 I'd blow you <3 n e i l <3 <3 <3
consider, for just a moment, the first time neil gets drunk with the foxes.
i think it wouldn’t happen until the end of his second year, but when it does, nobody was prepared.
so, neil is partying with his foxes. it’s probably a bonding night or something, just them in a dorm. i doubt he’d let himself get drunk with strangers around, but he trusts the foxes not to hurt him and he trusts andrew not to let him do anything stupid.
shockingly, neil is a massive lightweight. he rarely ever drinks, so in reality it’s not that surprising, but somehow none of the foxes expected him to get completely pissed off of like three beers.
neil, as it turns out, says the most batshit outta pocket things when he’s drunk. i’m talking bringing up his traumatic childhood in casual conversation and then immediately afterwards asking allison to braid his hair or something. just completely random and a little horrifying.
eventually, andrew decides that it’s time for neil to switch to water, but when he tries to hand neil a glass, he just says “oh, fuck off, aaron.”
andrew tries to ask what the fuck neil just called him, but neil tries to punch him before he can.
that’s right, just tries to full on deck andrew.
andrew finds the whole thing hilarious, because 1. even if andrew hadn’t caught neil’s arm, the punch wouldn’t have hurt at all. neil was moving too slowly and he probably would have missed anyway, and 2. because the first (and only) time neil ever mistook the twins, it didn’t end with him trying to kiss aaron, it ended with him trying to punch andrew in the face. neil’s gut reaction to seeing aaron is just punching him in the fucking face, and if that’s not fucking hilarious i don’t know what is.
anyway, andrew is now holding neil’s arm. neil just blinks, looks at him for a second, and goes “drew? when did you get here?”
andrew, now trying very hard not to laugh, is all like “time for bed” and drags neil back to their dorm.
neil has no memory of any of this happening until allison shows him the video she took.
andrew assures him that it was funny, but he still uses it to win arguments for a month afterwards.
Part 5 probably.

[драрри!ау «в моей голове все живы»: Драко тайком пробрался домой к Гарри на каникулах]
Джеймс: Малфой! Какого чёрта?!
Драко: О, мистер Поттер! Рад вас видеть!
Джеймс: Немедленно выбирайся из постели моего сына, ты, ебливое животное!
Гарри: Папа, спокойно! Ты всё не так понял…
Джеймс: Чёрт возьми, Сириус! Только посмотри на это!
Сириус, лениво входя в комнату Гарри: По-моему, всё логично. Очередной Поттер не устоял перед очарованием Блэка.
Джеймс, закатывая глаза: Ты не помогаешь.
Регулус, отбирая у Сириуса сигарету: Какой пример ты подаешь?
Регулус: Драко, милый, чаю? Воды? Уйти?
Драко, плавно выбираясь из-под одеяла: Последнее, пожалуй.
Сириус: Да ладно тебе, малой. Оставайся. Пока Джейми не обратился в оленя и не направил на тебя свои честеблюстивые рога, всё в полном порядке.
Двумя днями позже Драко снова попал в эту ситуацию, но Джеймс уже обратиться в оленя, так как успел разглядеть на шее своего сыночка подозрительно красное пятно.
Гарри: Папа, остановись! Ничего не было!
Драко, удирая через окно во двор: Да ладно, будет весело!
Регулус, закуривая под насмешливый взгляд Сириуса: В этот раз ты приложишь Джеймса Петрификусом или я?
Сириус: Давай в этот раз не будем? Уж больно интересно, станет ли Джеймс доводить дело до конца, или, как было у вас, отпустит мелкого, как в свое время Орион отпустил Сохатого.
Римус, выйдя на улицу с чашкой чая: А давай не будем проверять? Не хочется знать, помнит ли Джеймс заклинание, которым Вальбурга запустила в него в тот раз.
baby monsters...
relationship between kevin and thea only existed to establish and distance andreil from kevin. it’s so unnecessary it’s just there, but it BRINGS NOTHING to the plot. like i see why nora put kevin in a relationship and yeah it might’ve worked if it wasn’t SO FUCKING AUWFUL. i hate kevin/thea with my whole heart and just want my boy kevin to be happy and with someone fucking else.
Hc that once the Foxes really realize that Neil and Andrew are actually in a serious relationship and not just a fling, they're all weary of it and don't bother hiding the fact.
One day, they all happen to be in the lounge without Neil and Andrew, and the Upperclassmen are talking about the fact that they're kind of worried about Andrew and Neil being in a relationship, and Aaron agrees, and someone says something like: "I'm surprised you're worried, I thought you hated Neil. Although, I suppose you'd know Andrew's violence better than any of us since you've spent more time with him." And Aaron just scoffs and says, "I'm not worried about Neil at all. Anyone with half a brain cell can tell that Andrew would never hurt him. No, I'm more concerned about what Neil could do to Andrew." And the Upperclassmen just. Stare at him. Minds blown.
From that point on, they're forced to reevaluate everything they thought they knew, and they pay more attention to every interaction they see between Andrew and Neil, and they're forced to realize that- Aaron's right. Andrew wouldn't hurt Neil, and they're a bit ashamed of the fact that it took them so long to realize.
