    Summary

    “It’s a little difficult to think clearly with a knife pressed to his jugular, but Neil manages to wonder if he should’ve let the FBI send him to jail instead of here.

    It makes sense, unfortunately, that after finding Neil bruised, burnt, and bleeding out on the cold cement floor of his father’s basement, Special Agent Todd Browning might have had some concerns for Neil’s health.

    Neil just didn’t expect that concern to include his mental health, too.

    Browning had offered Neil a choice that day - after listing out, like, fifty reasons why he thought Neil might benefit from some therapy.

    Life in prison or a sixty day stay in a psych ward, followed by freedom.

    Neil thought the answer was obvious, but his new roommate still hasn’t removed his blade from Neil’s throat - which Neil is now realizing isn’t actually a knife, but a razor blade taped to the butt of a toothbrush - so he’s rethinking that answer a bit.”

    OR

    The one where Neil and Andrew meet in Easthaven.

    Summary

    After turning down Wymack’s offer in Millport, Neil runs into trouble. With nowhere left to turn, he finds himself drawn to the Palmetto Foxes and the prospect of what will never be his. Exy, that is. Neil doesn’t need friends. Not even a little bit. And if his eyes water as he watches the Foxes welcome the new striker into their ranks it's because he has allergies.

    Summary

    Neil went pro a year ago--and not on Andrew's team. The problem: they're private people, and when the press takes their declarations of hate at face value, Andrew and Neil find themselves unwilling to end the rumors.

    Genioglossus. It’s a fan-shaped muscle and forms the bulk of the inferior part of the tongue. It stretches to the hyoid bone too.

    Summary

    My name is Neil Hatford. I am perfect Court number three. I am alive. I am alive. I am alive.

    Neil Hatford was not Nathaniel Wesninski no matter how much Riko wanted him to be. He refused to live by the captain's rules.
    That is until he is given a deal that could lead to a change for the better - for him, for Jean. He just needs to get the Foxes to the championships so Kevin can be taken back to Castle Evermore. Easy.
