A concept: Kevin Day and Aaron Minyard talking mad shit about Andrew and Neil. Kevin talking about how he’s sick of Andrew “pretending” he doesn’t care about Exy and then Aaron replying, “I’d take that over Neil eye fucking the court every day”

frxnkenstein-deactivated2018061:

i….love this….so much oh my god ok

  • so andrew and neil are on one of theyre “this is nothing but we go on weekend trips together to makeout” things 
  • so kevin needs to practice bc he’s Extra™ and…he’s still having a little trouble relaxing without andrew around all the time
    • andrew gave aaron a look before he left that aaron knows means to watch out for kevin
  • aaron’s complete disinterest manages to deter kevin from practice for two full days
    • never underestimate aaron’s ability to be stubborn to spite someone else ok
  • but finally FINALLy it’s not kevin’s incessant bitching that gets aaron to go to the court with him 
  • it’s aaron getting back from classes and not getting immediately bombarded with requests to go to the court
  • it’s coming home to a silent kevin staring out the window, rubbing his scars
  • aaron sighs deep to hide the fact that he’s concerned and changes into light workout clothes and grabs kevin
  • he also ignores how much kevin lights up when they turn onto the street of the foxhole court
    • this is an example of aaron “im not allowed to feel anything at all ever” minyard
    • also an example of aaron “knows where matt keeps a spare key to his truck” minyard
  • at first aaron refuses to practice with kevin
  • but he “gets bored” or whatever he likes to tell himself
    • see, aaron actually likes exy. he likes the way he can channel all his frustrations into it. he spends so much time studying and trying to figure out his brother and trying to figure out what the hell he wants from his life so sometimes he just needs to run around and knock people on their asses, ok?
    • its also pretty much the only times he can remember connecting with andrew
  • kevin is, like always, completely immersed, and barely notices aaron getting on the court until he walks by him to block his way to the goal
    • kevin’s on the courts because he can breathe there. he’s on the court because its where is mother put him. its the only place he mattered after she died, where he felt like a living thing rather than an asset. 
    • he’s there because even though he’s happy for andrew and neil, he really is, he’s still figuring out how to stand on his own. the court’s been the only place he really felt he could do that. 
  • now aaron may be on the court
  • he may have come to be there for kevin shut kevin up
  • but you best believe he’s gonna bitch about it
  • “fine, i’ll go, but i’m gonna complain the whole time” yea that’s aaron
  • after like one snide comment though Bitchy Kevin comes out to fuckin play and it goes a little something like:
    • kevin: andrew knows he’s good but does he try? of course not. see, that’d be fucking easy. that’d be simple. nothing is simple with him. *cue kevin taking an unnecessarily forceful shot on goal*
    • aaron: and don’t even get me started on neil just asking him for things. are you kidding. andrew doesn’t do anything ever at all and neil just??? asks him??? and he does it???
    • kevin: I KNOW. AS IF I HAVEN’T BEEN MAKING SIMPLE REQUESTS FOREVER.
    • (both of them are secretly wondering why they don’t bitch to each other more often)
  • the best part though, is when aaron is at the height of his rant and says, “You know, i don’t even want to do extra practice, but I’d take this over Neil eye fucking the court every goddamn day”
  • kevin just fucking breaks like he drops his racquet and everything
  • aaron hasn’t ever seen kevin laugh???? its kind of beautiful surprising??
  • kevin gets a hold of himself and wow
  • he doesn’t think he’s ever seen aaron smile he’s surprised how much he likes it
  • after that kevin’s feeling better 
  • they head back to the dorms and play video games for a while, order food. just kinda hang out
  • nothings really changed, per se, but….things are definitely different. 
    • more often than not now kevin will just go to the library to watch his taped games with headphones on while aaron studies, occasionally getting kicked in the shin when he gets too excited
    • when neither of them want to sleep because they know its one of those days they’ll have nightmares they go to the library’s 24 hr lounge and eat shitty microwave ramen (aaron is sworn to secrecy…no one can know kevin loves creamy chicken ramen) and try to teach each other bio or history
    • aaron only had a mother who hurt him growing up, and kevin only had the memory of his mother and people who hurt him growing up . without saying anything, they just understand.
  • in conclusion because aaron is accidentally really funny, kevin and him get a lot closer, which is good, cause they both kinda needed it
  • they wouldnt say they were friends, or are friends, but…maybe its a little “nothing” of their own

tfc hcs you should consider

purmeka:

  • aaron is one of those people that is fascinated by crime docs/unsolved murders and it’s the one topic he and andrew consistently talk about (no, it’s not subliminal shade. they eventually get past that)
  • neil, nicky, and dan all know how to sew and mend clothing
  • matt partakes in stress baking and can make a variety of desserts and decorative cupcakes. renee gets him to teach her. when they make too much matt hands off the left overs to neil who then passes them on to nicky, aaron, and andrew, much to kevin’s dismay
  • dan is good at dancing. like, really fucking good.
  • kevin regularly offhandedly shares historical facts/events and their corresponding dates that he somehow found relevant to whatever conversation he’s partaking in
    • he also readily answers questions and provides menial but accurate details (aka something my actual little brother actually fucking does)
  • allison knows how to surf and eventually learns how to skateboard because why not
  • kevin and dan have the highest alcohol tolerance of all the foxes

  • renee is exceptionally good at telling scary stories, so much so that she’s well known on the campus thanks to it
  • matt used to play D&D when he was younger. he eventually manages to convince some of the foxes to play with him and regularly DMs a game for nicky, aaron, dan, renee and sometimes neil. neil mostly watches though, since he can not for the life of him understand the fascination for it.
  • dan is constantly made to shoot her trash from a distance whenever she tries to throw something away because she never misses. there’s a betting pool of when or if she’ll ever miss and it is ever-growing &frighteningly large 
  • on one birthday kevin received nothing but vodka and huge jugs of protein powder from the others and it was, quote, “The best birthday ever.”
  • there is definitely a beer pong tournament held with the other athletes in the dorm. the top three is constantly contested between the exy team, an array of cheerleaders, and the basketball team
  • aaron and matt both really fucking love baseball. matt is friends with some of the baseball players in the dorm, and after they graduate/go pro they send matt tickets to some games which he drags aaron with him to go see
  • neil is double jointed and gets a sick pleasure grossing the other foxes out because of it (andrew finds it childish)
  • allison knows how to play a variety of instruments (piano, violin, and cello)
  • aaron is sliiiiiightly taller than andrew 

  • renee and andrew are insanely good at various bar games (darts, pool, shuffleboard, card games in gen, etc.)
  • speaking of, andrew can easily perform sleight of hands with his knives because he taught himself how to do so with cards. he’s also proficient in some magic tricks but no one is aware of it
  • kevin easily gets car sick and absolutely hates riding boats
  • when dan and matt get their own place, matt sets up stakes in his backyard and whenever the foxes visit they all drink and play horseshoes. prime socializing. kevin and neil get really into it.
  • matt actually picks up various outdoor hobbies and invites neil along with him. he teaches neil how to fish, he invites him to come camping with him and dan when he hears he’s never done so (for recreational fun, not survival) they also regularly make plans to go hiking during the summer.
    • when they both retire they definitely have some summers where they go backpacking together.
      • andrew travels with them partway before they part at germany where he spends some nights at erik and nicky’s place before flying back to the states
  • allison was a horse girl. her horse is still alive when she leaves for PSU and lives on a ranch owned by her parents
  • in addition to andrew, renee also knows how to tend a bar. except she is also capable of flair bartending and the other foxes always lose their shit whenever she shows it off
  • nicky pierced his own ears during high school
  • renee is just as much of a sweet tooth as andrew and they constantly discuss which flavors of ice cream are better and give each other recommendations
  • allison has self harm scars on her upper thighs/stomach

  • neil absolutely knows when someone’s hitting on him. he’s only obtuse because he doesn’t care for their feelings

sixinchrainbowheels:

ok but consider: cheerleader Neil Josten

HEAR ME OUT I’M GOING SOMEWHERE WITH THIS I SWEAR

– so we all know neil’s mom said he couldn’t play exy

– you know what the next best thing to playing exy is

– obsessively watching exy and cheering for it

– his mom didn’t really mind (well, he did at first, but neil somehow convinced her it wasn’t terrible) as long as he didn’t get attached to a squad and shit

– boy picked up so much skill from local cheer gyms everywhere

– he trained sO HARD (like half because if he was better they put him closer to the game so he had a better view)

– his tumbling passes were legendary. with his speed he could do the craziest shit like so many back handsprings. a back tuck. crazy twists and everything.

– even though he’s a guy he’s still soooo short

– at one point his coach decided to make him a f l y e r – like this little 5"3 muscular ass boy getting tossed like 20 feet in the air by these peppy girls in short skirts – just imagine

– he kept going until sometime before his mom died, when he realized he might have put a bit too much effort into the sport. people don’t see boy flyers and pass it off, and one of his teams almost made it big. almost- neil’s mom made him mess up their last routine and they left shortly after crippling the squad’s chances at nationals

– neil never really cheered again after his mom died, but he sometimes watched the vixens’ routines, mentally noting their strengths and weaknesses and what they could do with them, but he never said anything because he only knew katelyn and… it’s katelyn

– no one knows about his cheer days. not even andrew. uNTIL

– one day neil is out running and hey look up ahead near the exy stadium it’s the vixens holding practice

– he’s totally just gonna go right by them because exy but then he hears some shouting

– as he gets closer he sees some guys trying to talk to the vixens. from the look of their body language and the girls’ tense stances, it’s not going well

– neil gets closer and hears some very rude and derogatory things being said

– he promptly tells them to fuck off, may have added a threat or two. the guys bail.

– the vixens tell him they had it covered but thanks anyway, and one is like “hey, you wanna have a real practice today?” like totally joking

– neil’s brain is like fuck it

–  “yeah sure can you guys fly me in a basket double twist”

– who are you and what have you done with our starting striker

– neil just basically joins their practice

– katelyn’s reaction was priceless

– not as priceless as andrew’s expression when he sees his boyfriend being thrown into the air by a bunch of cheerleaders on the way to practice

who else bets that the foxes teach neil all of the “cultured” references. like lit, swag, bro and all the other good stuff. but he doesn’t get it so they’re left with

allison: and so “lit” means everything’s great. like it’s really good
[later that same month]
wymack: neil how do you feel?
neil, on the floor with a sprained ankle and obviously in pain: fucking lit

in addition, neil just getting everything wrong and sometimes asking way too many questions about things people just don’t want to tell him

neil: what’s a minion
andrew: no

neil: renee, what’s a furry?
renee, quietly: why did you have to ask me. i don’t think i know enough to tell you, so you should look it up
renee, internally: crisis avoided

neil: who’s anakin skywalker and why did obi when canobi love him
dan: oh, honey

neil, looking at smudged writing on his hand: hey, nicky wants to know where you put his……..fall out at the disco cds?
matt: this isn’t even funny anymore this is just sad

neil, nudging andrew: is our mascot a furry?
andrew: what
neil: i asked renee and she said to look it up. they wear the same kind of costumes? a website said you shouldn’t call them that but-
andrew: shut up
nicky: holy shit should we ask
renee: please don’t ask
allison: please do ask
matt: place your bets, people
aaron: $30 on it being true
dan and wymack: CAN WE JUST PLAY THE GAME

wehsninski:

henlo it is me your local transboy with some trans headcanons for ya!!

(this is part one btw!!)

@pipedreamjosten!!

  • neil was born with a name that closely resembled his father’s so the first thing he does when he begins transitioning is change it to so he would finally have something of his own
  • it almost felt liberating
  • he told mary after a botched attempt at trying to get him to dress in his new school’s girl uniform which ended in tears and a thrown away skirt
  • mary only smiled tiredly and held up a pair of their sharpest scissors so she could cut his hair
  • from there, she tries to find binders that have been donated, but when she can’t, neil gets sports bras from the nearest department store instead

hello andrew minyard doesn’t wear matching socks

#okay but i can’t decide if they should be non-matching like one’s fuzzy and orange with a knife design #and the other is just the words ‘fuck you’ printed over and over #or if they’re non-matching like one is a slightly darker shade of black (via @sirandking)

i love the idea of really dark gray mixed with one black sock, but also, he’d highkey wear one black sock with one sock that has little dinosaurs all over it, and it’s incredible

and sometimes he wears knee-high socks with sheaths in them for his knives

he has the worst tanlines, between his socks and his armbands, honestly

#im crying?? because this is how andrew becomes that trope of pulling knives out of every inconceivable place#they just keep coming (via @reynclds07) 

he’s definitely done the lara croft thigh sheath at least once, too

#i mean with knives and not guns but still #i’m pretty sure his tanlines could blind someone #he’s worse than any dad (via @sirandking)

andrew minyard, in knee-high socks and sandals, telling neil “nice to meet you fine, i’m andrew”

Dad Things that andrew has canonically done: driven his kids to sports practice and watched them play from the bleachers, banned his kids from dating until they were old enough, beaten up several of his kids’ enemies, given his kids silly nicknames (‘pinocchio’), made multiple bad puns (‘jean valjean’, ‘mayday’), bought a mid-life crisis fancy sports car, commiserated with Team Dad Wymack about their children over a bottle of whiskey

i can’t believe andrew is the Dad fox.  and he’s somehow the Responsible Dad making sure his kids get to practice and helping them quit drugs, but also the Cool Dad giving them designer clothes and taking them all to the club wo w

and he even takes them out for ice cream after school??

do you ever think Neil accidentally turns Andrew on?

unkingly:

do you mean: all the time

I both think about it and Neil most definitely does accidentally turn Andrew on all the time.

there were plenty of instances in canon, but think after the Moriyama business calms down and Andreil settles in.

whenever Neil wears the clothing Andrew gave him for, say, going to class. you can bet Andrew hates to see him leave but loooves to watch him go.

whenever they’ve been apart for a weekend or evening or, hell, even a particularly long day of classes. Neil trudges into their room while Andrew smokes at the window; he flops down, maybe siiighs about a long day, and then rolls over and gives Andrew that sappy happy to be home Look that he undoubtedly gets. it never fails to make Andrew want to take him apart.

whenever Neil gets into an argument with Kevin or Nicky or Aaron or Allison or reporters or the world, Andrew is 10/10 dtf afterward. that number increases to 15/10 if Neil loses the argument but refuses to acknowledge that he’s lost the argument.

whenever Neil gets s u  p e r serious about Exy, standing next to Kevin with such a look of concentration and determination and under it all, passion …….. Andrew has to leave the room.

whenever there’s a particularly grueling game. not so fun having to stay in the tiny goalkeeper’s box when your bf is heating up the whole court, is it, Andrew.

there are “oh fuck, he’s beautiful” moments, and then there’s “fuck me, I want to fuck him,” and then there’s “he risked his life and he came back for me. fuuuckkk.”

(meanwhile, our favorite oblivious idiot Neil thinks: wow, Andrew looks more constipated than usual, what’s up with him.)

HCs about the citizens in Natsume’s town

natsomuchartem:

  • At first only the older generation was really talking about natsume. gossiping like and wondering if he be a strange one like Reiko
  • That is until the Fujiwaras start their non-stop commentary on their new son
  • Touko to the neighbors: “oh Takashi-kun is so sweet did you know the other day he picked me the most beautiful arrangement of wild flowers!”
  • Shigure to his co- workers at lunch: “ah look at this figurine Takashi-kun made on our trip the other day. He really is talented”
  • “The other day Takashi- kun did all the laundry for me! He said I should take a break once and a while”
  • “Takashi truly has added a liveliness to our home. like he’s filled in a gap me and Touko haven’t even noticed. I’m very thankful for him.”
  • The Fujiwaras are basically the town’s “couple goals” so the fact that Natsume did not make their lives harder but instead gave them a new well of happiness is something everyone can agree is good.
  • Then there are Natsume’s classmates:
  •  the people gush about how cute he is but also mysterious
  • Everyone is used to him being quite or sleeping but they will joke for hours when he gets sassy (Nishimura is usually victim to this but its so interesting coming from Natsume he doesn’t mind that much)
  • So parents and older siblings will get either over detailed descriptions of Natsume’s beauty and grace
  • or a play by play of his latest sick burn
  • Natsume buys manju buns so often he slowly built a relationship with the shop owner and staff
  • Natsume is usually pretty good with remembering facts they have told them about themselves so he’ll ask for updates with every visit (how was your university exam? Did your sister have the baby yet? Did you perfect that new recipe?)
  • They all find the quite Natsume boy and his oddly fat cat very endearing
  • The other regulars at the shop will greet him and ask him how his school life is going
  • townsfolk also see Natsume walk around with NATORI FREAKING SHUUICHI!
  • which is pretty damn impressive
  • They all also see Natsume “Cats Love Me” Takashi 
  • basically all cats, owned or strays, just approach him easily and he can’t help making happy cooing noises at them 
  • Natsume also will just help people. whether it be related to youkai or not he’s just always willing to offer a hand.
  • Overall by the end of his first year with the Fujiwaras the entire town knows who he is and opinion ranges from “quite and polite” to “a quirky boy but is very endearing”
