Andreil at a theme park headcanons

defractum:

This is a very belated pinch-hit for @captain-ferid​ for @aftgexchange​. I’m so sorry it’s so late, and I hope you like!

• The Foxes are brainstorming where to go on vacation
  post-canon – or rather, Nicky ropes Neil inot a discussion he’s having with the
  girls, Matt and Aaron as he’s on his way back to the room he shares with Kevin
  and Andrew
• Allison tries to book something insanely expensive for them
  all again, but Dan puts her foot down on that – taking Neil away for his first
  proper vacation had been an exception, which means that they need to find something
  that they can all afford
• It’s Matt who suggests a theme park, one he’s been to with
  his mom before.
• Aaron scoffs at the idea – it’s totally lame, right? But it
  turns out he’s never actually been to one before (not exactly one of Tilda’s priorities)
• (Neither has Neil, or Andrew, or Kevin, they all realise)
• Nicky enthusiastically pumps up the idea before the mood can
  plummet too far as everyone contemplates their terrible childhoods, and points
  out that they can totally make a few days out of it, with the theme park and
  waterpark combined
• Neil shrugs – he doesn’t really know anything about them,
  but it sounds like fun? He’ll ask Andrew
• Matt and Allison immediately make a bet on whether it will
  be Andrew or Kevin who nixes the idea (Nicky points out that Neil’s going to
  ask him, so of course Andrew will agree)
• In their room, Kevin’s watching Exy (on his laptop with his
  headphones in, because Andrew had complained about being subjected to enough of
  the stupid sport already on the big TV) and Andrew is smoking and reading on
  the windowsill
• Neil goes to Andrew first, who seems largely apathetic but
  agrees pretty quickly
• Occasional
  adrenaline rushes? Shitloads of junk food? Very little actual effort to do
  anything required? Sounds like a good vacation to him
• Kevin does live up to expectations, and mutters about how it’s
  a total waste of time and money to spend all day queueing up for things but
  Neil reminds him that this is a few days away in Carolina, and insinuates that
  the two weeks away in Europe Allison wanted to do is their second choice at the
  moment
• So they rock up – Allison buys them fast passes to
  everything even though Dan protests, saying that it’s her choice so that she
  doesn’t have to wait in line with them for hours and hours
• Andrew immediately gets one of those free refill popcorn
  buckets and locks eyes with Kevin as he inhales half of it, using his hand as a
  shovel
• It’s pretty hot weather, so Neil ties one of his Exy bandanas
  around his hair
• Normally the bandana is accompanied
  by disgusting hair dripping with sweat but now it just makes Neil’s hair ruffle
  attractively in the breeze
• Also he
  rolls the sleeves of his t-shirt up to reveal his shoulders and biceps
• Andrew is
  Suffering™
• He deals
  with it by keeping a blank face and as we all know, our boy Andrew has resting
  bitch face to the point where Neil leans in and asks if he doesn’t want to go
  on the rollercoaster after all
