    Summary

    Don’t panic. Call Kevin Day.

    You have no idea what you’re getting into, making Jean Moreau a Trojan.

    Jean has always been something of a black box. Whereas Riko Moriyama and Kevin Day spent so much of their childhoods at Evermore in the spotlight, the details of Jean Moreau’s personal life have been kept largely in the dark. In post-game interviews, he’s always blended into the monolith of Ravens standing behind Riko. But until Kevin called a couple weeks ago, you thought you at least had a general impression of Jean Moreau: an absolute nightmare of a backliner, with the ruthless ambition and arrogance expected of any Raven — especially one marked for Riko’s so-called Perfect Court.

    The person waiting for you in baggage claim at LAX is like someone else entirely.

    Do’s and don’ts for rehabilitating an ex-Raven, by Jeremy Knox.

    Summary

    In 2008, the Palmetto State Foxes win the Title One Exy championships for the first time in the tournament’s history. Following the shut down of Castle Evermore, The Edgar Allen Ravens are barred from playing games until spring playoffs. And Jean Moreau, backliner and former member of Riko Moriyama’s perfect court, not-so-quietly joins the starting line up of the USC Trojans Exy team after four years of playing on an opposite coast.

    Summary

    Upon Mary Hatford's death, Nathaniel Wesninski makes the call to his uncle Stuart rather than continuing on the run and ending up in Milport, Nevada.
    Upon graduating university, Andrew Minyard turns down all offers of a professional Exy career and muddles through a 'normal' life, until the boredom and inanity of it all wears him down and he accepts an offer of a break to spend some time with his cousin Nicky in Stuttgart, Germany.
    There he meets Abram Hatford, a handsome and broken young man who has more in common with Andrew than he suspects, and nothing's normal anymore.

    Summary

    Stuart knows it’s perfectly normal for teenagers to have crushes. That’s why he’s not surprised in the slightest when Neil starts acting strange; lighter, happier. However, what he doesn’t expect is for the crush to leak into his everyday life—or literally take up residence in his house.
    Or: five times Stuart knew Neil was hiding a nighttime guest, and one time he actually met him.

    Summary

    Jean was alone. Hours ago he had been dropped off at the airport by Fox’s nurse and boarded the plane to LA to join his new team, his new owners, the USC Trojans. He did not bother hoping they would be kind or a major improvement over the Ravens, he knew how this worked. Despite the assurances of Renee, Kevin and Abby he knew that a broken thing like him would have no place among the Trojans. He resigned himself to the fact that his treatment the Trojans would only be marginally better than the Ravens. After all, a team could not function and succeed without the harsh discipline of the Master and Riko, the Foxes’ win had to be a miracle and a fluke. He was certain that the Foxes were an exception to the rules, exy teams had to function like the Ravens they just had to. It went double for a team as good as the Trojans.
    Follows Jeremy and Jean's life starting immediately after Jean lands in LA to join the Trojans.

    Summary

    He realizes that everyone feels exactly the same way he does, filthy and buzzed and understood and angry. His eyes find Andrew again, sober but animated like the drums are a live wire and he’s electric.

    He thinks, if he could be part of this, if he could stand in the middle of the stage in a garden full of monsters, and sing the audience’s veins open, he would never need another drink, or another moment on court.

    Prompt: Andreil in a rock band setting – tattoos, harsh lighting, calloused fingers, Andrew’s sweaty arms, Neil’s striking blue eyes, someone’s excellent voice, an uncomfortable undercurrent of drug abuse.

    Summary

    Upon reaching a breaking point, a young Nathaniel flees the Nest with his partner in tow to start life anew as Neil in Marseille with Jean ever at his side. It’s not an easy life, not when they often have to lie and steal (or worse) to survive, but they’re together.

    Upon a dare, Andrew Minyard joined the FBI instead of going pro with Exy – and is still involved in the world of the Moriyamas, in tearing down their empire. Now he has the best chance to break apart its foundations, and to do that he needs the help of a certain pair of criminals.

    Summary

    Neil bunched the raincoats together and squeezed the excess water down the drain. He knew that someone else was in one of the stalls, but he didn’t pay them any attention until he heard sniffling, as if they were holding in tears. Neil dropped the raincoats in the sink and wiped his hands on his jeans, peeking under the stall to confirm that yes, it was a crying child.

    In which Andrew and Neil frequently go to the library, adopt a kid, and eat Dairy Queen. But not necessarily in that order.

    Summary

    Life goes on after the Foxes win the championship, and for Andrew and Neil it's uncharted territory with only each other for guides. Maybe it's time to put away some of those hard edges, and learn how to touch more softly, and speak more honestly. And if they falter, they have their family to help them get back on their feet.
