if we got what we deserved, we wouldn’t be foxes.
y’all i’m re-reading some of the extra contents and nora says andrew leaves robin with renee’s knives because he doesn’t need them anymore and i’m cryin
our boy matt is like a year behind the girls right?? so there’s a whole year where it’s just him and Andrew’s lot (and the freshmen) and yeah come on I know he’s an actual puppy and tries to get along with the newbies but like,,, you know there’s that /one/ snide remark or eyeroll from that one freshman that finally sends him over the edge and into the boys’ dorm. Everyone looks up. “What the fuck do you want,” Andrew asks. Matt says nothing. He falls into the beanbag that Nicky offers him and resigns himself to the fact that the monsters are his new squad for the rest of his university life. Monster Matt.
He’s probably super excited tbh. Like finally, this is his chance, he’s going to be /cool/. But then he realised that all the monsters do on their down time is play video games and eat icecream and mimic Kevin in high pitch British accents and it’s low key better than anything he ever imagined…
Matt is the good kid trying to play bad-boy and the monsters think it’s hilarious? Nicky does, if anything. Matt goes out by himself to buy clothes for Eden’s Twilight the first time the monsters decide to take him along – Aaron ditched them for Katelyn, that time – and he looks like someone dumped a ton of leather on a poodle.
Also, Matt has a truck, so Andrew pretends he lost his keys every time one of the other monsters need to go somewhere and he doesn’t want to take them. Neil never takes out his, because he knows from experience Andrew will throw them out the window if he tries. Matt gets therefore roped along for every late night alcohol-and-junk-food trip for Nicky, accompanies Aaron to get Katelyn from the airport after breaks -and they’re adorable?!- and listens to Kevin anxiously rambling when he takes him over to Coach’s when Abby decides is time for father-son bonding x-activity, and he loves it all.
Low-key Matt keeping an eye on his adoptive brother Neil and realizing that, wow, he and Andrew are actually a good couple? They respect each other so much? They bicker like an old marred couple? So one night he calls Dan and is, no, listen, we got the wrong one, it’s Andrew we should be worried about, Neil is going to get him a heart attack if he keeps antagonizing people!

honestly, you can live without having read the extra canon content, but then you’ll never get to read about nicky hemmick meeting his new exy team wearing a tight black tee that says “GET THIS STRAIGHT – I’M NOT.” and if you don’t read about that, are you really living?
Okay but like every single thing about that scene is iconic.
’ “I’ve met Dan an’ Matt. For the rest of you: I’m Nicky. I’mma be one of your backliners this year, ‘cause Lord knows I love a rearview best.” ’
Nicky omfg
’ “What’d you call me?” Juan demanded.
“He called you an asshole,” was a bored response, and one of the twins stepped up beside Nicky. Judging by the cool look on his face, this one was Aaron. Nicky was quick to prop his arm on the shorter man’s shoulder, and Aaron didn’t try to dislodge him. Aaron met Juan’s glower with an unimpressed stare and said, “That wasn’t news to you, right?” ’
I love my son Aaron. Also Aaron likes Nicky. Fight me.
’ “Sure is,” Nicky confirmed. “Macon only offered Spanish and German, and why would I put myself through more Spanish?” He waved it off as an obvious choice. “Since we all studied it, we run a bilingual household. I can’t afford to fall out of practice while I’m in the States and it keeps things interesting. What about you? You good with your tongue?” ’
Fucking Nicky Hemmick everybody. He’s talking to Matt btw.
‘It was a hundred degrees outside, but Andrew had come in a long-sleeved black shirt and boot-cut jeans. A skull cap was pulled down low on his head, nearly hiding his eyebrows, and his hands were crammed into his back pockets. He stared wide-eyed at his cousin, seemingly oblivious to the rest of the gathered Foxes, and rattled off something else. Nicky gestured and responded, and Andrew’s answering smile was all teeth.’
Andrew was wearing a fucking skull cap. He’s so emo. I am in love.
‘Seth stabbed a finger in Nicky’s direction and glared at Wymack. “Funny you told them all about us and forgot to warn us about the fag. I’m not changing out in front of him.”
Wymack stabbed a finger toward the back door. “Get out. You can spend the rest of this meeting in my office. As in now, Gordon,” he said when Seth just stared at him in angry confusion. “You have been here long enough to know I won’t tolerate slurs in this locker room. From anyone,” Wymack added with a cold look around the room. “I took on your anger issues willingly, but no one pays me to put up with your prejudices.” ’
Papa Wymack is not taking any of your homophobic bullshit Seth.
So basically the extra content (especially Son Nefes) is a gift and definitely worth a read.
Matt: All ready for the trip, Dan!
Dan: Matt, what’s in the duffel?
Neil, from inside the bag: hi, dan…
