Neil and Andrew are boyfriends who are always proud of each other for literally everything.

-one of the best memories Andrew has is the first time Neil walked into a room and instead of looking for all the exits in the room and potential threats, he just looked at Andrew

-Neil still remembers the feeling in his chest the first time Andrew spooned with while they slept, both of their backs to the room.

-Andrew remembers Neil truly allow himself to laugh in pure joy for the first time in probably his whole life, he uses that memory to help calm him down when he’s missing him

-The first time Andrew lets someone other than Neil touch him (its a hand on the shoulder from Nicky) Neil’s smile lit up the room for the next three days

-the first time Neil went swimming with the foxes and wasn’t once self conscious about his scars Andrew kissed him so hard that night, trying to show just how proud he was of his boy

-the first time Andrew smiled properly was the day Neil thought he finally knew what heaven looked like.

They have So many memories together far more than just these six, Andrew’s memory keeping them all safe forever and Neil’s memory holding on to everything to do with Andrew because Andrew is even more of his world than Exy (Kevin finds this to be blasphemy). Every time one of them improves and becomes healthier the other feels a content-ness down to their bones. Each of them getting softer with each other every day.
