Summary
“What are you planning on doing, Andrew?” Wymack asked him, discarding the piles of paperwork littering the desk and turning his full attention to the conversation at hand.
“Going away.” Andrew told him, lighting up a cigarette and wondering the same thing. He hadn’t figured all the details out but that could be rectified by spending a week in Columbia on his own searching for jobs and apartments. He had enough left in the bank from Tildas’ life insurance to secure a lease until he found work. The only question was where he was heading, he wasn’t interested in sticking around Columbia where he could run into his family.
“You only just got off the meds, have you thought this through?” Wymack asked, leaning back in his chair and scrubbing a hand over his thinning hair. “I know Exy has never been the endgame for you, but I thought you’d stick around for the degree.”
Andrew shrugged carelessly. A degree didn’t mean anything unless you had plans to use it and Andrew wasn’t that committed to his future. “Sorry, coach. Exy just isn’t what I needed it to be any longer."
-Neil was never recruited to the Foxes. Now Andrew must face the world without his drugs and he's not impressed.

Summary
Neil should have gotten up and walked away.
Any other day, any other person, and he would have. Any other person and Neil would never have made the mistake of thinking they were Andrew. But this man wasn’t Andrew, he just looked like him. He looked far too much like him for Neil to walk away.
Because Andrew didn’t have any family. He was a foster kid, without so much as a last name. He certainly didn’t have any siblings. Did he?
Could they ever truly know for sure.

Summary
It’s been a month or so of this wooing. Andrew had called it that once, sarcastically, but it had stuck. Andrew committed. Gift after gift.
Now, Neil thinks he would place his own life in Andrew’s hands. To hold, to shape. He’s seen the beauty Andrew creates with his own eyes. He would be cherished--
He has been cherished.

Summary
Neil Josten is not soft- has never been in fact. But when an unintended comment from one of the Foxes throws Neil for a loop, he finds himself reminding them why no one should think of him in that way. But why is Andrew suddenly so distant? And what happens when all of these reminders of his past start to catch up with him?
Aka: all the times Neil proved he was a badass, and Andrew reminds him he's an idiot.

Summary
Neil has seen them.
As much as everyone assumes that Neil isn’t observant, he notices things. It’s not that he’s unobservant -- though he, admittedly is when it comes to romantic attraction -- it’s that he notices things, but if it’s not his business, then he’s not going to comment on it or bring it to attention. Why does he need to?
Andrew is the same way, though the two of them often comment on something they noticed if they suspect the other did. However, this situation is different. Because it’s Neil noticing something about Andrew.
Something that Andrew hasn’t shown Neil, let alone opened up to him about it. So it takes a while for him to decide on what to do when he finds the notebook, or sketchbook maybe, in the back of the drawer while searching for a pair of Andrew’s sweats. But he, ultimately, decides to gently leave it alone, grab a pair of black sweats he figures Andrew won’t miss, and moves on.
...
Neil finds out about Andrew's hobby of drawing, initially to cope with his trauma and depression, then as genuine enjoyment. 5 times Neil gets to see Andrew drawing in secret, and 1 time the rest of the team find out.

Summary
Andrew met Neil in a park when they were five, hiding in a tunnel in the playground set and immediately the two became inseparable; causing chaos for the adults around them, growing closer and closer as the years trickle by even through trauma and abuse from caregivers and unstable mothers all until one day Neil's unstable mother snatches Neil away for eight years just as everything in Andrew's life shifts- from having a new adoptive mom, to finding his brother and doing everything he can to protect him, to gaining a family that he wants to share with Neil. And after eight years, after thinking that his best friend and only love was dead, Neil comes back into his life easily fitting himself by Andrew's side once again, leaving the two of them to navigate their new developing relationship together alongside their traumas and complex family relationships

Summary
Andrew isn't a renowed author. Sure, he has his fans here and there, a few hardcore readers, but he's not famous or internationally known.
So, when he stumbles across his own book in a place where it absolutely shouldn't be and in a language it absolutely wasn't translated to, he makes it his personal mission to find the person behind it.

Summary
Neil Josten was born with violence in his blood and raised as a weapon to hide in plain sight.
And then he finds himself surrounded by foxes and his usual survival tactics ruined by a five foot goalie. The whole mobster mafia problem isn’t helping either.
--
Cue a Neil who cares a little less, a past raven, and potentially a little something more to live for.

The Witch and The Wildling by smallcactusbigcity
Fandoms: All For The Game - Nora Sakavic
12 Dec 2024

Summary
The world is full of big, bad things. Andrew knows this. He knows this better than most people, probably. He’s heard the whispered folk wisdom from the inhabitants of the latest village he’s ended up in.
Don’t go past the tree line, if you can help it. Definitely don’t go at night.
Leave an offering at your doorstep on the new moon.
Keep bay laurel for protection, rosemary for warding, always in your garden.
Andrew is smart. Smart enough not to brush off the ancient superstitions that villages like these cling to tooth and nail. It’s about control, and he understands needing to be in control of situations that are much larger than his hands could grasp. He also knows that magic is real.
Or
Andrew is a witch and Neil is a fae and the two of them are maybe cosmically connected

Every Bloom a Bruise, Every Breath a Promise by IntrovertedBookWorm

Summary
Petals in his lungs. Blood on his teeth. A silence between them sharp enough to carve ribs into a coffin.
Neil Josten would rather choke on flowers than confess—would rather take the name to his grave than watch it wither in someone else’s mouth. But some roots won’t stay buried, no matter how deep you dig.
Andrew Minyard has survived knives, darkness, and ruin. He’ll be damned if he lets Neil die of something as stupid as love.
If this is how they go down, they’ll do it bloody—thorns and teeth and no regrets

Summary
The Waffle House was twenty eight miles from campus. Far enough that no one they knew would ever bother. Close enough that it felt like home.
And the staff, they loved them.
No one ever asked questions. But one night when Neil came in with a bruise blooming high on his throat and Andrew looked half wrecked from giving it, their usual server, a woman in her fifties with glittery nails and a tired smile, just said, “Y’all look like you had a good night,” and brought over a plate of cinnamon toast on the house.

Summary
Andrew stares blankly down at Neil’s bare fourth finger. Then he looks up at Neil’s scarred face, his deep blue eyes that stand out even against the summer horizon of this godforsaken city, and he wonders yet again if he knows about the ring tucked away in the bottom drawer of the double vanity.
One more surprise, Abram. I think I want to marry you.
Andrew buys a ring. It takes a while before he makes any use of it.
