    Summary

    This is the story of Neil and Andrew post “The King’s Men” and spans 12 years. It’s about their sexual journey – every baby steps, missteps, and gigantic leaps. It is also (and perhaps more importantly) the journey of how they stay committed throughout it all, made visible in the little things, and bigger, grander gestures. Most of this is a mix of canonical facts and my own take on their future.

    A few of the scenes include: the night following the championship game, Andrew allowing Neil to get him off, Neil getting fucked for the first time, the handcuffs scene, Andrew moving to a new city while Neil has to stay at Palmetto for his last year, Andrew bottoming, Nicky’s wedding, and Andrew and Neil’s public coming out far, far in the future, followed by a crazy Fox reunion.

    Content warnings and trigger warnings in the notes of every chapter.

    Summary

    Now, though—the same way Neil was no longer accustomed to being on his own, Andrew had become complacent, no longer used to facing the all-encompassing tsunami of Neil’s attention during his months at Easthaven. Now, desire made him feel too large for his skin.

    Summary

    To the untrained eye, Neil Josten would seem entirely normal, albeit a little more tightly wound than usual.

    Andrew Minyard's eye is not untrained.

     

    Alternatively: Neil never thought he would live long enough to want a future and Andrew can't find the words to reassure him.

    Summary

    “You were barely fast enough to save him last time. The next time someone takes a swing at him, you and your brisket lungs will have to watch him die.”

    The sour and bitter words have been haunting Andrew for weeks—only because it's the most ridiculous thing Andrew has ever heard. He wasn't too slow with Riko. And he could never be too slow for Neil.

    But after Andrew nearly watches Neil die in front of his eyes, Jean's words haunt him in an entirely different way. Quitting cigs sounds like a fate worse than death—but so does losing Neil.

    Or: The attack in The Golden Raven from Andrew's pov. **Contains The Golden Raven spoilers**
