Summary
Neil Josten hated hospitals.
When he was on the run with his mom, they would hide out in warehouses or sketchy motel rooms and stitch themselves back together with a needle and a bottle of whiskey. He didn't trust hospitals; they were far too open and public for his taste, doctors made it worse with their too-many nosy questions. It was the last thing Neil needed.
But when Neil wakes up in a hospital with no recollection of how he got there and no memory of the past two years of his life, Neil hated it a little bit more.

Summary
And then, unfortunately, Aaron has an idea.
The idea itself is almost not worth having. It is deeply unethical. It is the opposite of ‘do no harm,’ and it is not even guaranteed to work. Aaron actually thinks that this idea might be worse for his license than performing illegal care on a probable criminal in a back alley in the dark. No, Aaron thinks, it is undeniably worse.
“You’re a survivor,” Aaron repeats. “You should already be dead, but you’re not. You should pass out sometime in the next few minutes, but I’m guessing you won’t.” Aaron squares his shoulders, makes himself say the words. “If I give you an address, can you get there?
**
An AU where Aaron is a doctor, Andrew is FBI, and Neil’s gone rogue against the mafia. Neil needs medical care, and it really should be Aaron performing it, right? Right??Bookmarked by flightyfox

Summary
"Talk to me, Andrew- I thought you were getting better-"
Better. It's like a lit match to kerosine- Andrew slams his hands down on the counter, crushing the chips before he sweeps them across the room. Better.
Better- like Andrew is something to be fixed. That he even can be fixed. Nobody understands how hard he is trying but everyone can tell when he backslides- Abby, Wymack, the other Foxes, and even his own family have a silent language they use when Andrew Minyard is being a fucking problem again.
He is so sick of being this vulnerable, he-

Summary
Neil laughs. He asks, “Did you just make a nest?”
Andrew narrows his eyes. “It’s a fort.”
“It feels like a nest,” Neil says, running his hand along the blanket.
“Well good thing I made it, and I get to call it whatever I want. So it’s a fucking fort.”

And then, it was instinct.

Summary
“You said it’s shit.”
“I did.” Andrew agrees.
“You said it isn’t a permanent fix.”
“It’s not.”
Andrew reaches through the window, plucks the tree shaped air freshener off the rearview mirror, holds it to his nose. Neil waits, knows that it lost its scent months ago. He isn’t sure why he’s held on to it, just knows he likes the look of it dangling while he drives. It’s another identifiable feature to his car, another way to know Neil Josten drove this Subaru.
His mother would have hit him before throwing it away.
Andrew places the scentless piece of cardboard back in its spot with a delicacy that indicates understanding. A gentleness that makes Neil wonder if Andrew Minyard, with his family and his fancy sports car and his leather jacket, is also learning how to be a real person.
“I can fix it.” Andrew says, and for the first time since he came upon Neil and his unresponsive engine, he looks away.
“You can fix it,” Neil echoes, a question and a statement in one.
“Yes.” Andrew replies.

Neil’s car breaks down. Cue the cute blonde with a knowledge of cars, a cool leather jacket, and a long term crush on the helpless redhead.Bookmarked by flightyfox

Summary
"Andrew didn’t know how to stop something from breaking; he’d nearly died trying. But Neil had taught him it was possible to put the broken pieces back together, and he was determined to return the favour."
Neil was only a freshman and a rookie when he made his deal with Ichirou. He hadn't stopped to consider how much pressure he was putting on himself; he'd lived in danger his entire life and was used to fighting to stay alive. He'd be fine. He'd always been fine and he always would be. Right?

When Neil Josten gets arrested for a fake ID and thrown into the Juvenile Detention System, he knows that he's running on borrowed time before his father's men catch up.
His mother is dead, there's nowhere to run, there's nothing left at all but an Exy court at the Oakland County Detention Center that he has to earn the right to play on through good behavior.
And Neil's never been great at obeying rules.

He automatically went to answer before noticing that it wasn't Kevin calling him on his drive home, but rather Andrew.
He paused. Andrew rarely called him. Usually a text sufficed, unless there was a crisis.
God, please don't be the mafia again, he thought as he answered.
“Hello?”
“Neil’s pregnant.”

Summary
This conversation requires an emotional finesse David doesn’t possess. He tries anyway. It’s not part of the job description, but David’s never been able to hold that line of separation in his head. It’ll all kill him early, he knows. The booze and the smoking and the endless parade of messed up kids. Too bad he’s no good at quitting.
Andrew's in Nashville. Neil's in Palmetto. They're both well-practiced in surviving alone.
But now, it's Wymack's problem.Series

Summary
“Put it away, Lawrence.” Neil didn’t look up from his laptop as he spoke and typed simultaneously, determined to get this done before the end of the day.
Out of the corner of his eye Lawrence straightened guiltily in his chair. “Yes, absolutely, will do.”
He didn’t move.
“Is it away?” Neil deleted 'in essence', because it made him sound like an asshole.
“For sure.”
If he was going to sound like an asshole, he’d rather it was because he knew of a better way to take down this guy’s theory than by using words like 'in essence'. “Can you finish the equation on the board?”
“Yes, I can, the only thing is there’s some exy news –”
“I hate phones,” Neil said. “Don't any of you give a shit about privacy –” He stopped mid-sentence and looked over at Lawrence. “What exy news?”
