• k but we all know Andrew is not a cuddler for so many reasons
• but that Neil would Not Object to cuddling bc he is starved of affection and touch and general human warmth etc
• maybe one time after a game they’re both wrecked bc naturally they both played out of their skin trying to outdo each other and they’re sooOoO tired but also like >:)))))
• and Nicky and Kevin have been dragged away to celebrate but Andrew is like nah you’re mine tonight so they start making out on the couch
• Andrew is on top naturally and it’s all warm and hands and bruising lips until they start to get tiiiiireddddddddd
• and their limbs are heavy and their kisses are slow and maybe Andrew pauses just a sec against Neil’s shoulder and Neil maybe dozes off for just a minute while trying to find Andrew’s neck
• anyways Nicky comes back three hours later to find them passed out on the couch. Andrew’s face is buried in the crook of Neil’s neck and he’s wedged into the space between Neil’s chest and the couch and Neil is holding Andrew’s hand
• Nicky basically
• stuffs his fist into his mouth
• and has a thirty second silent breakdown before taking out his phone and taking twelve pictures and backing rapidly out of the room
• he and Kevin make a louder entrance later so Andrew can wake up without killing them for seeing The Cuddling
• Nicky has a whatsapp group for this very occasion
• Aaron and Kevin and Neil and Andrew are Not In It but katelyn and Eric are
• “I have won the award for best photo of the entire century Ok”
• “prepare yourselves. Sit down if you need to. Put down any valuable object you may be holding”
• the responses to the photo range from
• ‘fUCK’
• ‘I’m going to kick a chair’
• thirty seven heart eyes emojis (Matt)
• ‘you all owe me 70 bucks’
• ‘nicky you’re gonna die’
• Nicky does not die
• Neil receives a print out of the photo from an anonymous source
• Andrew only finds out because Neil literally cannot stop looking at it
• ‘405%’

neil: “i am nothing. and as you’ve always said, you want nothing”
andrew: congratulations_you_played_yourself.jpg
Happy Valentine’s Day!
remember when andrew literally bought all of neil’s club outfits, gave neil keys to the house, let neil drive his car, bought neil a matching phone with matching ringtones for each other, let nEIL DRIVE THE MASERATI THAT EVEN NICKY DOESN’T HAVE A KEY FOR, bought neil mATCHING ARMBANDS, and liTERALLY DOES ALMOST EVERYTHING HE ASKS and yet, neil is sTILL SO MCFREAKIN SURPRISED when andrew picked him over aaron like neil…… come ON
they’ll get there eventually (with blurred skylines, slow dancing in the kitchen, and shared cigarettes)
i cried for them
when was the first time neil or andrew told the other they loved them
I was a little leery of answering this question because someone already wrote a ficlet about this, but.
on Andrew & Neil’s domestic life
Specifically: cats, cooking, and cleaning.
So you mentioned briefly in another ask that Neil and Andrew’s relationship couldn’t have recovered if the protection thing had still been in effect when Neil got taken by his father’s parents/Andrew failed to protect him. Are there any other circumstances in which the damage to their relationship would have been irreparable? Or if there’s too many to list, what would have been the easiest ways for their relationship to get damaged beyond repair?

Hi
again. I also had a question about a specific moment in The Raven
King(?) when Andrew and Neil were in the Exy store looking at heavy
rackets. Right before Andrew left there was a moment that felt
very…“substantial”. I surmised that part of it had to do with Andrew
revealing too much and trying to keep Neil (or himself?) from saying
something troublesome but if you could explain it in more detail I’d be

What was Andrew worried he’d say at Excites? When Neil protested that he isn’t a lost cause? Why did this made him react?
