    Summary

    Neil hated the new mouth guards. They felt weird on his gums, they were ugly, and they lit up like the Fourth of July whenever someone ran into him a little too hard.

    The damn things were Aaron’s idea, part of a movement towards head safety in contact sports. Waste of money and time, if you asked him. He’d played with a concussion before, hell, he’d driven in a high speed chase with a concussion before, and it’d been perfectly fine. But it was Aaron’s idea, which meant Kevin backed it up, which meant they all had shiny new mouth guards that flashed bright red for suspected head injuries. Fucking ridiculous.

    *****

    Neil gets his shit rocked mid-game, and his boyfriend's brother gets to help, and no one is happy about that arrangement

    Summary

    To be honest, Andrew is still surprised this is happening to him. After all, he’d only accepted the stupid deal so that Aaron would be brave enough to ask Katelyn out. He hadn’t expected Neil to bother speaking to him, much less say yes.

    But now, here he is. About to go on a date with Neil Josten – one of the most mysterious, popular, and drop-dead gorgeous kids in his school.

    It’s the best day of Andrew’s life – isn’t it? Because the hardest part is over. Now he gets to enjoy a date with the very boy he’s been crushing on for the past two years. A date that just happens to be the first one he’s had in his entire life.

    Nothing could go wrong – right?

    Summary

    The feeling morphed from an itch to a constant, the buzz of a worn-out system coming back online inside of him. It was supposed to be there this whole time, it belonged, ready to elevate Aaron to his full annoying brother potential.

    This whole time, he didn't want to undo their progress, didn't want to shame or fight Andrew.

    No.

    He wanted to make fun of him.

    Aaron calls Andrew out on being the most obnoxious boyfriend to ever boyfriend.

    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

    The rise and fall of the Minyard-Josten Rivalry.


    Usually when Neil starts shit in a post-game press interview, he does it on purpose. This time, he really just meant for it to be a joke.

    “How do you feel about the possibility of ending up on a team with a former Fox teammate?” is the next question.

    “Great,” Neil answers, sincere. “I would love to play with Matt or Kevin again.”

    “What about Minyard? Would you sign with Atlanta?”

    Neil says, “Andrew? He’s a nightmare.”

    He knows it’s a joke. His team knows it’s a joke. Andrew will know it’s a joke.

    The press does not seem to know that it’s a joke.

    Summary

    Wymack’s voice trails off, words stuttering to an abrupt stop. All heads turn, slowly following the path of Wymack’s gaze.

    Andrew spots him almost immediately - hair as black as night, curls gentle and full atop his head. He’s got a bruise the size of a baseball around his eye, freckles spattered out around it like an explosion of stardust. His eyes are the colour of the sky, cresting with storm clouds.

    His hands are in his pockets as he walks by, fisted around something. He doesn’t look at any of them as he passes, eyes downcast.

    Andrew’s never seen him before.

    “What the hell happened to your face, Neil?” Wymack shouts, voice startling in the aftermath of silence. Neil doesn’t stop, plundering by the team and their coach without a second-glance.

    __

    In which Wymack adopts Neil at the age of 13, after the world has already chewed him up and spit him back out a few times over.

    The Foxes are still the Foxes, and Neil and Andrew are still destined to find each other.

    So what if some people get two soulmates? Andrew already has everything he never thought he could have….and yet, he’s about to get so much more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    It’s not, really, a big deal, honestly.

    It’s just, after Katelyn, the thought of being with another girl still hurts. For a long time, the thought of being with anyone who was not her hurt. Quite a bit. But like his mother’s death, time sands out the sharp corners of all grief. So he’s considering his options. It’s just a little experiment. It doesn’t have to go anywhere.

    Aaron is currently waiting for Grindr to download.

    It’s not a big deal. Really.

    He considers deleting it at least three times as he sets up his profile, but it’s not a big deal.

    “He must be, like, violent or something.”

    “I heard he came from the foster system and didn’t even know Aaron was his brother until recently.”

    “He’s a psychopath, I'm sure of it. I saw him looking at the frog dissection for an uncomfortable amount of time, I think he wanted to eat it.”

    “Or smear its blood across his face like warpaint.”

    “Where does he keep his daemon? No one even knows what it is and they haven’t seen it either.”

    Andrew is new to Palmetto Highschool and Neil is curious to see if the rumors hold up.
