Summary
Understanding love is easy when he’s doing it with someone who is falling faster than him. It’s easy when it’s made out of late nights and white duvets and heavy bass and thick dreams.
Is loving the same as spinning? It must be.
Or: a series of questions Adam asks as his relationship with Ronan grows.

Summary
In Ronan’s language of half answers and whole truths, this is a cautious admission. This is Ronan admitting to wanting Adam, carefully and circumspectly. This is a step forward, albeit a small one.
Adam takes the next.

Summary
His fingers were long, slender things interrupted by knobby knuckles. The edges of his hands were smudged blue with pen ink and dead skin dangled from callouses on the palms of his hands. These hands told a story, but Ronan could not intuit what that story was. He thought back to the day he saw Adam walking his bike up the hill to school and wondered idly where he had biked from, where he had been in the years before he came to Aglionby.
The development of Ronan and Adam's relationship leading up to The Raven Boys.

Summary
Andrew knows how to get what he wants. He knows how to ask, how to indicate boundaries, and how to stab someone in the gut if they choose to ignore those boundaries. That’s really all he’s ever needed. He doesn’t let men touch him. He doesn’t let people get close enough to try.
Except Neil.
Except he wants Neil. In ways he’s never wanted anyone before. Never trusted anybody before.

Summary
Neil gets drugged at Eden's. Again. They get him back quickly, but the parallels fuck with everyone and reveal what happened with Nicky the first time around.
But Andrew remains flawed, so doesn’t know anything is happening until he hears Nicky gasp. Nicky makes a lot of unnecessary noises, so this one isn’t especially concerning—not until Nicky’s hand flashes out to grip Andrew’s arm and he says, “Andrew,” with such strained urgency that Andrew’s head erupts into a riot of alarms.
He follows Nicky’s pointed finger and sees, through the thick forest of bodies, Neil. With some guy. Kissing. He’s out of his stool almost before he can consciously register the scene, leaving the scarred black metal toppling to the ground behind him and shoving into the crowd. Something is very wrong. Neil had been too still. Too loose. An unstringed puppet. Andrew knows what Neil looks like when he wants to kiss someone, and that—that isn’t it.

Summary
Neil likes to observe. He observes all the silly little details about the Foxes and Andrew most of all.
During his second year at PSU, it almost befuddles him when he suddenly finds himself fixated on the way Matt and Dan hold hands, on the specific and random times that they decide to do it, on the reasons why they *like* to do it. It makes Neil wonder.
AKA
Neil realizes that he would really like to hold Andrew Minyard's hand.

Summary
Neil wanted the entire world to swallow him whole.
It occurred to him in these moments that his place at PSU did not solely exist on the Exy Court, at least according to his academic records. It barely registered to him that he was not just some walking poster boy for the Foxes on the days he sat inside a classroom and not within the walls of the Foxhole.
OR
A short little fic inspired by an amazing piece of fan art by lunapiq (!!!) where Neil actually tries to study and eventually Andrew gets tired of pretending he isn't bored in a room without Neil's presence.

Summary
Neil has a problem. Instead of dealing with it, he does everything in his power to avoid thinking about it — which really consists of a lot of running, a lot of practicing, and an unhelpful case of insomnia.
The exhaustion does wonders to dull his anxieties. That is, until everything comes crashing down in his face.

Prompt: “@mac-noa Could you do a prompt where Neil gets hit on by a lot of people and is completely oblivious about it. The foxes think it’s hilarious and Andrew doesn’t mind as long as they don’t get too close”

Summary
Neil goes down in the first quarter, and he goes down hard.
Kevin knows the signs of a panic attack all too well. Convincing Neil to trust that the Foxes will hold the line while he recovers? That's the tricky part.
Maybe they think Kevin is going soft; maybe that's not such a bad thing after all.

Summary
Neil didn't remember falling down, but the next thing he knew Andrew was standing above him, face carefully blank by eyes intense as he rested his chin on his racquet, and the crowd was cheering.
AKA Neil gets a concussion because author has had several and nobody writes accurate depictions of concussions.
