Andrew Talking To Neil In Tfc: Don't Be So Afraid To Die

when neil was going to save andrew at the hemmick's house, he knew exactly what kind of wood the door was, and how easy it would be to break through. that's what kind of guy he is. neil doesn't win fights, but he is damn good at a getaway. this is a really good example about how all of neil's knowledge is really selective because of his upbringing. we need more survivalist neil because he shows all these traits in the books, another example is when he hitchhiked from columbia to palmetto. please stop ignoring this because i want to see batshit insane neil on the run fics right now thx

Here's your daily reminder that Neil canonically refers to the twins as "pint-sized" on Halloween

I'm really just saying, we do not speak enough of how fucked up the monsters are for ANDREW to be the mom friend

the gang

every friend group should include…

interrupting our irregularly posted and unnecessarily long posts with this devastating piece of news. I was listening to An Honest Mistake on spotify by The Bravery and i swear to fuck. i went to look at the lyrics and was immediately bombarded with ORANGE AND WHITE and i was like FUCKKKK AFTG EXY FOXES HGNGHHGH. and then. i actually read the fucking lyrics and its literally andrew. THE SONG IS LITERALLY ANDREW FALLING IN LOVE WITH NEIL. PLEASE LISTEN TO IT. IM SO.

Cute andreil facts from Nora’s posts that everybody forgets about

They actually do hold hands

When Robin moves to their dorm (during Neil’s fourth, Andrew’s fifth year) Andrew relinquishes his loft and shares with Neil the entire year

Renee was the first one to catch on Andrew’s attraction to Neil, but Kevin was the first one to catch on Neil’s attraction to Andrew

After Aaron outs Andrew and Neil’s relationship to Betsy (during The King’s Men), Betsy sends Andrew a message that says ‘’I’m happy for you’’

Andrew punches their pro team coach when he makes Neil play despite his injury 

They sit on each other’s laps 

Andrew is usually the big spoon

Andrew isn’t actually the top, they switch (by the time Neil becomes the Foxes’ captain, they are comfortable either way)

They go on dates, mostly long drives to nowhere, but also long walks on the beach or even a table for two

They stock coffee in their house in case one of them wakes up in the middle of the night because of nightmares

They don’t say ‘I love you’ because neither of them have ever heard anyone say these words directly to them, but there are times when Neil could’ve said them: during Aaron’s trial, when Betsy had a heart attack, during Nathan Wesninski’s trial, when they finally got their own apartment, when their team beats Kevin’s, when the US Court wins the gold medal

Their ‘I love you’ is in ‘Stay’, ‘Don’t go’, ‘Welcome home’

Neil likes forehead kisses, and Andrew is definitely tall enough to give them

Their first time was stressful for both of them, not only for Neil (we like to paint Andrew as this very experienced dude, and forget that Neil is actually his first too, which is sad)

Andrew discusses his and Neil’s relationship with Renee

Andrew buys Neil a camera when he noticed how much Neil loved the photos in the lounge

Andrew destroys the hems of every single pair of pants he owns because they are too long

One day they both stop asking

One day Andrew will learn to trust Neil with all of himself

Andrew is better with kids than Neil

When it’s nearly time for Aaron’s trial, Neil asks Betsy to be there for Andrew and says that he needs a mother right now

Neil practises picking locks, so he handcuffs himself to a bed

when Andrew finds him, he makes fun of his miserable attempts and leaves him handcuffed to the bed, stating that he did it to himself and now has to deal with the consequences 

The next day Neil handcuffs himself to Andrew, so he won’t leave him again

*So obvioulsy the statement ‘’everybody forgets about’’ is false, but I wanted to write down all of my favourites (even though I’ve probably forgotten about at least half of them)

This post also exists for writers who need some fanfic ideas, etc.

If you feel like adding anything I didn’t include, please go ahead, let this post be even longer it already is

I love that Good Omens has these two doofus being completely put upon yet completely smitten about one another, like they’re both VERY. AWARE. of the other’s many faults and at the same time completely blind to them

like in Aziraphale’s eyes, Crowley’s the smoothest motherfucker that has lived on this planet, just look at him being smugly superior in that bathtub of holy water, just, “i am crowley, i am just slick“ Crowley has never looked smoother than when he’s not himself

and to Crowley Aziraphale’s simply this super brave, cool-as-a-cucumber, doesn’t-flinch-at-the-threat-of-violence, looks-adversity-in-the-face-and-doesn’t-back-down, willing-to-stand-up-alone-against-the-Host utter BADASS

and I can’t help but picture Aziraphale happily chatting with Anathema and just, he can’t help it, it’s just second nature to him, to speak so highly of Crowley’s intelligence and cunning, and Anathema just looks at the gangly red-haired dude being harassed by and screaming obscenities at a smol Dog in her yard and go wtf this motherfucker???

and Crowley while he’d be plenty more discreet about it would let it slip during a conversation that Aziraphale’s made of stern stuff, unflappable I tell you, the guy gave away his sword and then fucking lied to God about it, can you believe it??? meanwhile Aziraphale’s flailing and failing at the most basic magic tricks before Adam’s very (compassionate) eyes and Anathema feels like she needs a drink

and i live for this “beauty competence is in the eye of the beholder” thing

richard gansey III: what do you know about welsh kings?
