andrew and neil both buried their mothers in burning cars 

#neil bought andrew a new car#and andrew gave it right back to him#the car has heavy significance to andrew#it’s something he guards possessively#and something that gives him freedom#he freed his brother with a car crash#and can free himself any time with his car now#just drive away from it all#neil freed himself from his own mother when he buried her in that car#and only then could he find the freedom to play exy#and to become neil josten#both of them destroyed what was left of their first version of ‘home’ in the flickering flames of a car wreck#and then they built a new version – a BETTER version – with a shared car and keys

I can’t decide whether this is fluffy or angsty. Regardless. Was this really necessary? I mean really?
