Thinking About Wymack Just Looking At His Foxes One Day And Realizing That They Are Doing Okay, They

oh you're besties? which one of you is french and which one is an abominable cockroach?

The comparison between Zane (Jean's temporary partner) not protecting Jean from Grayson when it was needed the most versus Neil (Jean’s “misplaced forever partner”) immediately getting rid of Grayson the second he finds out he hurt Jean.

inspired by the scene where Cat brings Jean seashells at the beach bc Jean’s old teammates trashing his little trinkets is OUT, and Jean’s new teammates adding to his collection is IN

nora saying that if aaron and katelyn have time off from work they'll probably go visit andrew and neil for christmas is my roman empire i think about it all the time

i'm not sure what the technicalities were before kayleigh day's death, but the idea that she might have trusted tetsuji, the man she cofounded exy with, her legacy, with her son, and he betrayed that trust in the most horrendous of ways, the idea that they might've been been friends at some point. it's just so devastating

jean and neil 🤨💅

no because like. he taught him french and it would be their little secret. they had each other when it felt like there was no one else. kevin saw nothing but the court and jean had given up on hoping for more than that years ago. he got punished because he let kevin go. he hates him now. they can hardly speak civilly to each other now. kevin gave him a place with the trojans. they were "tight". he sent him postcards and souvenirs and jean kept them all. he knew better than to look at another man too long and how appropriate, how in character that a pretty face had fucked him over yet again. he wished a thousand painful deaths upon the foxes' queen for just minding his own business. he ran messages between him and his gf. he slit his throat on the way out. once upon a time jean would do anything for kevin and kevin knew it.

one thing that will always fuck me up is the thought of neil and jean being ravens together. of the brief time neil experiences in the nest, where the two universes intersect, neil the raven and neil the runaway, and understands what his life would've been if his mother hadn't ran away with him but also understands what jean had been living through all this time. jean being angry at neil for getting caught but also mitigating that anger by daring to hope, to wonder what if he stays? what if jean finally has his permanent partner? and it's a foolish hope of course because neil doesn't stay, but he makes sure that renee gets jean's number and when jean needs her the most she shows up, one single girl against the mafia, and takes him out of the nest. and neil makes a deal for him so jean can keep on living, he makes sure, in his blunt way because neil is not a soft person, that jean fully understands that riko is dead, that neil saw him being killed with his own eyes. and he shows up at jean's new house and acts like a little shit with the fbi when he notices jean feels off and needs some time to recover. he kills his abuser. he tells jean he is worth saving. they are not friends, but they are still connected in a way. neil isn't jean's partner in suffering, but he's there to try to make that suffering more bearable.
