    Summary

    (And when the vines reached my heart? I didn’t pull them out. I named them after you.)
    --
    Hanahaki: love that takes root where it doesn’t belong.
    Neil was never meant to feel it. He wasn’t supposed to survive long enough to. But then there was Andrew.

    Now Neil is coughing up flowers—blooms that carry every unsaid word, every moment he couldn’t let go. But this disease only ends in one of two ways:
    You confess.
    Or you die.

    And Neil has always been terrible at both..

    Summary

    Neil’s stare is all for him. It’s not the practiced serenity he displays during sermons, not the solemnness he schools his face into when he walks around the camp. It silences the woods around him, it shakes the earth.

    “I know there’s a lot I don’t know, Andrew. But I’m not naive about everything. I don’t get to make many of my own choices here, so at least let me choose you for one night.”

    Andrew and Neil have their first time at the camp; Andrew learns he may not want to let this go

    Summary

    “Do you really think your art is that meaningless?” Neil asks him incredulously. “I chose them. You put them on me. They make me different from everybody else. They’re permanent. They make me feel-,” he almost laughs at himself as he says it, but doesn’t, “-Permanent.”

    Andrew doesn’t reply. He flicks the end of his cigarette over the side of the roof. Neil watches it fall, then asks quietly, “If you think your work is worthless, why do you keep putting it on me?”

    Andrew turns to face him. Their eyes meet, and Andrew says, “You’re interesting.” Before Neil can respond to this rather substantial admittance from Andrew, he keeps speaking. “Mildly. You’re 1% interesting, which is more than I can say for every other fool that steps foot in that shop.”

    AU. Andrew is a tattoo artist. Neil is searching for something to make him permanent.

    Summary

    Neil Josten finally found a place to belong — he's not running away anymore; he finally has a place to call home. He just might even stay there forever. And his “forever” means watching The Great British Bake Off with Andrew from the couch in their tiny apartment.

    It was supposed to be the “forever” that no one could ever take away from him, from which he would no longer have to run. But the past catches up with him again, and Neil must give up the comfort he has found in his life. He has to give up his life with Andrew. Forever.

    Neil tries to live without Andrew in London. But his heart remains forever on the couch in their apartment.

    Five years later, a promise from the universe that Neil will never see Andrew is broken, sparking his hope for “forever” once again.

    ----------

    OR in which Neil is in the Witness Protection Program; he is dating Andrew during college until people linked to his father pose a threat to Neil’s safety again. Neil is forced to live with his uncle Stuart and cut off all contact with Andrew. They meet again five years later, now working at the same place.

    Summary

    Neil was not used to being in a position where he had to say goodbye.

    Not goodbye as in thank you, you were amazing but just a normal, regular I’ll see you soon.

    Andrew watched him, his expression mildly unimpressed, and Neil resisted the urge to pick at the scars on his arms.

    --------------

    Andrew is going on a trip, Neil insists he'll be fine, Neil is a hot mess. Short little one shot idea I had, mostly because I love writing feral Neil trying to be "normal"

    Summary

    The man sitting across from him is an exact copy of the doctor he just saw a few minutes ago. Neil is only sure they aren’t the same person because his hair is longer, the strands more disheveled, the lack of ornate equipment around his neck helps distinguish him, and because he also swears he just heard the pediatrician in one of the other rooms still listening to his patient’s stories.
    Doctors Aaron and Andrew Minyard.
    Neil had thought that perhaps they were father and son.

    Summary

    Andrew has spent most of his life refusing to acknowledge any emotions he may feel, only for those attempts to be destroyed the moment Neil walked into his life. The last thing he ever expected, though, was the hot rage burning in his chest whenever someone was too close to Neil.

    Summary

    “What about your alpha, Neil?”

    Neil’s eraser skids to stop, pink shavings tumble to the floor from his vicious back and forth. Mouth pinching, he breaches the mental moat he'd constructed to block out the group's frivolous chattering and looks across the table. “My what?”

    Summary

    “Are you going to stay there?” Neil asks finally, voice low, suspicious.

    Andrew’s posture doesn’t change. “I remain until instructed otherwise.”

    “You mean until the king instructs you."
     
    The knight doesn’t answer immediately. Then, without changing his tone: “Correct.”

    (Or, Neil is forced back into the life he tried to escape—the life of a prince—and Andrew is the knight sworn to “protect” him.)

    "You know," she said, leaning forward slightly, "it's really uncanny, isn't it?" Her eyes were on Andrew.

     

    Everyone paused, turning their attention to Dan, then to Andrew and the small dictator on his lap.

     

    "What is?" Neil asked, looking from Dan to Andrew, then down at Josh.

     

    "Josh. He looks like a little Andrew."

    Summary

    Andrew should have known this was a terrible, terrible, idea.

    He was an idiot, a fool, for ever thinking that he could train his mate in how to be a fully functioning human in a week- when his mate still struggled with basic merfolk concepts. He’d never forgotten his first impression of Neil - the first time they had been placed together for the Hunt, who had stared blankly in confusion when the head of the Hunt, an Elder, no less, had asked him what colony he was representing and Neil had basically flipped her off in merspeak.

    -

    Or; Andrew tries to teach Neil how to be human while his brother is pissed at him and they are in a house full of over excited strangers who all want to be Neil's best friend.

    Summary

    It’s a well established fact that physical touch to the back of Neil’s neck, right at the nape, brings him endless comfort. Andrew’s wide, calloused hands serve as a tether to reality and the fact that Neil is here, is safe, and no longer has to run.

    For Andrew, the nape of Neil’s neck provides a similar comfort. Whenever he is overwhelmed, or tired, or ungrounded, or even worried, he’ll smush his face into the back of Neil’s head like a child to a teddy bear and just breathe in. Trying to center himself. Trying to tune out everything else except him and Neil, and just come back to himself.

    Summary

    But that was the problem. Neil, the hotels, the shows, the sex – none of it was supposed to ever be serious.

    It was just an unfortunate reality that now he had to deal with Neil looking at him like that. Not sad, not hurt, just a shuttered up expression. A blank space that had been practiced to the point of perfection over the years spent in an abusive household. Andrew would know – Neil had told him all about his past over the eight months they had been hooking up.

    It meant nothing.

    “My bad. I know not many people know about this, I should have thought that through before-”

    “There is no this”

    The expression smoothed out even further, and Andrew felt a knife twist in his gut. It was Neil’s turn to scoot over more, and Andrew watched as the chasm between them grew another couple of inches. A little more and Neil would be out of reach.

    ~

    The monsters are in a band, Neil plays exy with Jean, and Kevin is the Foxes biggest fan.

    Summary

    Andrew should've taken more care with hiding the hickeys littering his neck. The hoodie he's sporting isn't doing much, collar stretched and warped from one too many washes, one too many instances of Andrew himself pulling at it while it was keeping someone else warm. Jealous of fabric, of the warmth it provided, Andrew thought he could do a better job at heating up the wearer's skin.

    So now the neckline was fucked, and the hoodie belonged to him, a trophy he swore he'd never display.

    Nick bobs like a fish until the words finally spill out. He's looking at Andrew's neck, not his face. "Again? Does your boyfriend not get tired?"

    Andrew dates his college's star athlete. No, he won't tell anyone about it.
