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.

the most amusing part in son nefes? the part where andrew says maybe wymack will recruit a quiet child who won’t bother anyone for the new season. oh, they all had no idea
