Guys This Isn’t An Aftg Account BUT I Can Perfectly Sum Up Andrew And Neil In Two Quotes From My Kids

no thoughts, only andreil & bubble baths

my knowledge of west virginia comes solely from aftg and that one song, and i would like to suggest aftg where everything is the same except the ravens’ fight song is “take me home, country roads”

Fandoms you write for: All for the game

Most popular one-shot: The Photo Strip Predicament (it's an untypically sweet of me high school AU in which the twins don't know each other yet. Aaron really really hates Neil and then a photo of them kissing circulates around the school. Spoiler alert: it's not Aaron in the pic. 😅

Most popular multi-chapter: Based on kudos: Was Sorta Hopin' That You'd Stay - enemies to lovers Andreil + neighbor prank wars, honestly, this is the funniest one I've written. Based on hits: North Star - post-break-up Andreil fic, lots of angst. Love me some angst. 🤷‍♀️

Favorite story you wrote: Uh, toughie... I got a few that I love equally but I'll pick the one I wrote for myself as a birthday gift, also it's my favorite ship: Like A Wildfire Burning Up Inside My Lungs. (KevJean 'And they were roommates' fic where Kevin asks Jeans to teach him how to flirt. Fun. 😅)

Story you were nervous to post: All of them? I'm always so eager to post but at the same time, I need a pep talk to myself before I hit the post button.

How do you pick your titles: Song lyrics mostly. 😅

Do you outline: Most of my fics have a very vague outline. For a couple of them, I did a more detailed one, though.

How many of your stories are complete:  Don't call me out like that! *staring at all my unfinished fics in AO3* 😂

In-progress: Oh gee... Okay. Fics: 5 partially posted, 1 brand new. Original stuff: 3 projects and even though this is my fanfic account, I'm probably gonna scream about it here if any of them gets a shot at publishing. JSYK. 🤷‍♀️😂

Coming Soon: Vigilante Neil / crime podcaster Andrew. Lots of angst again because of course.

Do you accept prompts: No one's ever asked me for one, but sure.

Upcoming story you are the most excited for: Well, apart from my partially posted ones, there's only one in the making soooo: Vigilante Neil / crime podcaster Andrew again.

Tag five fanfic authors to answer the questions: @knickknacksandallthat @mystrana @rapunzellex @paradoxolotl @rainbow-0bsidian if you want to play! Actually, anyone who wants to give it a shot! I'm curious! Loved this one a bunch!

lots of fanfic makes nicky out to be completely clueless and hyper but in the books, neil says he thinks that nicky has to act more outgoing to make up for the twinyards antisocial tendencies, and he’s actually pretty perceptive - normally realizes as soon as he makes someone uncomfortable, could tell when neil was anxious near the end of the kings men leading up to raven game, just genuinely tries to help others and be a good person but he has to put up an act all the time

Hello please reblog this if you're okay with people sending you random asks to get to know you better

honestly, what a power-move for neil to be an absolute asshole to the feds and get his way because of it. like damn, yes, let them know that you know how vital you are to their case. speak a different language so that they can’t understand you. call them out on their lies. insult them. go off my guy, that’s what we like to see

(and also shoutout to the rest of the foxes for refusing to tell the feds anything because they said they couldn’t see neil. this is the friendship neil deserves. this is the family that he didn’t dare to dream for. iconic)

no, you’re a person, i’m merely a vessel filled with the overwhelming urge to reread all for the game

here to prompt that 'other time', thoughts on allison? headcanons, character study etc?

thank you for giving me free reign to ramble about this absolute goddess

the short version of this post: allison reynolds is such a underrated character whose trauma is too often overlooked 

the long version:

one of the most common criticisms about allison is that she’s too cold/uncaring. i don’t want to make this a whole post about sexism, but i will say this: it’s shitty to hate a female character for the same reasons you love male characters in the same series. this happens too often in literature (not just aftg) and it’s exhausting. you can obviously have preferences and favourites, but loving andrew for his apathy and hating allison for hers isn’t the vibe. there are valid arguments that people can use to defend their favourites without being hypocritical and sexist

on that note! allison’s apathy isn’t just because she wants to be bitchy - it’s absolutely something that she learned while living with her parents. she would’ve gone to social gatherings where masking your actual emotions is essential and expected, and then she’d have gone home and have her dreams and aspirations bashed and ridiculed by her parents. it’s only natural that she would hide behind that icy persona in order to guard herself. i’m willing to bet that she pretended not to care when her parents disowned her, and only let herself fall apart when she was completely alone. it would have taken her a long time to be vulnerable in front of others

allison’s just become a really great actress who doesn’t let people get close enough to actually see her. it’s a coping mechanism and it’s how she protects herself from hurting more than she already is

and somewhere (i can’t for the life of me remember if this is in the books or the ec, but anyway), it’s mentioned that allison doesn’t get presents from randy. partly because anything that she can afford anything she wants, but also because she doesn’t have a parent figure to talk to, and randy subs in as a mother figure for her. remember that scene where nicky asked neil to convince andrew to go to thanksgiving in columbia, and remember how heartbreaking it was when he said he missed his mom? allison feels the same thing. (some key differences in the actual situations, but the gist of it? she misses her mom so desperately that she clings to any sort of motherly affection she can get)

okay anyway, that’s enough rambling about allison for today. i’m hoping to start posting more allison content, because even though it doesn’t do as well, i love her sm

basically? more allison appreciation pls and thanks xoxo

also!! @codename-adler wrote a foxes + onesies post (well 9 posts, 1 for each fox) and the portrayal of allison is 10/10, i highly recommend checking out their tumblr :)

neil “i’m fine” josten telling wymack after coming back from evermore that no, no, he’s not alright just... pierces my heart every time i think about it. you can really see how much neil’s grown by how he finally begins to trust someone other than himself or his mom. he puts himself in such a vulnerable position when he reaches out, especially by asking for help from an older man (given his past). and the way that wymack drops everything during winter break to immediately rush to the airport, i just-
