Andreil Will Die Eventually

I love all of your art so so much. It’s absolutely gorgeous and every time I see it I scream a little <3333 For the requests can I ask for Raven Neil and Fox Neil meet each other?

eeee thank you for your kind words !!! <333 a few people requested more nathaniel + raven and fox neil together so here u go >:D

❤️❤️❤️

Me: *vibin*

My brain: Take any ship any ship at all (Bakudeku) and make them lesbians. Actually make every character a girl and lesbians, do it you fucking coward-

Me, a useless lesbian, brain fucking melting: lesbian Bakudeku lesbian Bakudeku lesbian Bakudeku lesbian Bakudeku-

*if you wanna know what's going on in my mind rn it's just animated text "lesbian Bakudeku" rotating like a fucking screensaver-*

- Goblin anon, confirmed useless lesbian

goblin anon rn:

short lesbian bakudeku headcanons:

(totally not projecting but) long haired gf midoriya and short haired gf bakugou <3

their height differences as lesbians? *screams*

they would, and i say this with my being, have matching earrings OR OR bakugou’s are emeralds and midoriya’s are rubies (jirou’s the first one to notice that they’re the colours of each other’s eyes)

someone catcalled bakugou once and midoriya slammed the dude on the wall, growling at him because “you have no right to disrespect my girlfriend.” she was looking up at the fucker dude but she wasn’t any less terrifying

mineta tried peeking under midoriya’s skirt once and he was flung out the window thanks to bakugou’s explosions.

bakugou likes tying midoriya’s hair for her because it’s therapeutic for them both (it’s totally not because after so many surgeries, midoriya’s hands can’t steady themselves enough to tie her hair up herself.)

the girls don’t say anything but during slumber parties, bakugou ends up sitting on midoriya’s lap and forgetting the rest of them are even there. they let them be because they deserve the alone time

Do you have any very romantic Andreil? In character, but fics of them growing together and finding where their sharp edges fit together without hurting each other. I dunno i was just rereading Trust Fall (and Welcoming Arms) and Progress Comes in Small Steps and i had a need for more. Can be au or post canon or whatever! Thank y’all; i’m grateful for everything you do!!

Andreil fitting their broken edges together and healing is so satisfying to read and good for the soul! This ask took us a long time because life kept happening so we had less time to read fic and for the library. Then we started to worry that we could not do this topic justice, and that made it so much harder to post an answer. We welcome reader recs in the comments. -A & S

Artist!Neil AU series by Fortheloveofexy [Rated G/E, Collection, Complete, 2021]

Part 1: May We Meet Again [G, 10732 Words]

Neil hurriedly pulls out his sketchbook and crosses the street. “Excuse me,” he says in fluid German, waving his hand to catch the short blonde's attention. He’s soundly ignored right up until he’s next to the man’s table. “Hi, sorry to bother you,” he smiles politely, “But I was wondering if I could sketch your portrait?”

tw: implied/referenced abuse, tw: implied/referenced rape/noncon

Part 2: Paint Our Lives In Color [E, 41386 Words]

It's been two weeks since Neil followed Andrew to the States, and life couldn't get any better. Neil has never really known what home feels like, but he imagines it must be something like this.

Or; Neil settles into his new life, makes some new friends and learns a little about the meaning of family.

Set after "May We Meet Again" and before "And May We Never Part"

tw: implied/referenced child abuse, tw: panic attacks, tw: ptsd, tw: anxiety

Part 3: The Past, Stained Red [Not Rated, 4443 Words]

It had started out as such a normal, innocuous day. A peaceful morning, so far from the shadows of his past that he could almost pretend it hadn’t happened.

tw: panic attacks, tw: implied/referenced rape noncon, tw: vomiting, tw: implied/referenced child abuse, tw: implied/referenced self harm

Part 4: And May We Never Part [E, 3241 Words]

A year has passed since the day they first met, and Andrew doesn't shy away from Neil's perceptive gaze anymore. In fact, he finds comfort in it. Being seen by Neil has become its own form of safety. The world may look unkindly on Andrew Minyard, but in the eyes of his lover, his partner, his person, he doesn't need to hide. Neil sees him and loves him for exactly who he is.

Maybe that's what gives him the courage to do what he does today.

(Set after "Paint Our Lives In Color")

tw: explicit sexual content

Part 5: My Love For You Runs Blue [E 3321 Words]

It had been a shock how much he liked this, when he and Neil had first tried doing things this way. Andrew had expected to hate it, or a best, to be neutral about it. He'd wanted to try anyway, just to prove he could. Just to prove that he could have this.

The knowledge that not only could he have this, but he could enjoy it too had been nothing short of a revelation

(Set several years after "And May We Never Part")

Roadside Motels (a The Little Things remix) by static_abyss [Rated M, 7108 Words, Complete, AFTG Remix 2020]

Neil's well aware that this is the first time he and Andrew are away from the others. And the idea that there's no one but Andrew for miles sets a low heat in Neil's stomach. They're by themselves on the road and Neil isn't sure what to expect. But he figures he'll know by the end of the week whether this trip was a good idea.

Thorns by mostly_maudlin [Rated E, 17693 Words, Complete, 2022]

Part 2 of Five Hours Away

Andrew and Neil are used to surviving. They are not used to people coming back.

It’s Neil’s senior year, and the five hour drive separating them comes with obstacles they couldn't anticipate. But they’re trying.

They’ll do better.

Buried in the weight of your arms by kenkatsuki [Rated T, 3595 Words, Complete, 2017]

Neil grasped tightly at Andrew and hoped to convey all he felt towards the other man. It was so much. Too much. He wasn't sure how it was possible to feel so much for a person when he had learned all his life that feelings were dangerous and risky things, better to be held at bay.

But Andrew had come into his life and Neil would have to lose his fingers and hands and arms to let go of him. Maybe not even then.

No matter what happened they would always find the way back to each other.

mind the angels my love (mind also those words) by skysolos [Rated G, 643 Words, Complete, 2021]

Andrew Minyard has never been good with words. But for Neil Josten, he would try to.

Collab with my friend! Woof woof

And honestly THIS got me screaming and squeaking in ukrainian

Yulia Tymoshenko is questionable political figure in general btw just saying. But she's also more often than not becomes a victim to ukrainian meme space so it is just one of the moments why it is so wow to see her being mentioned in the musical.

Sidenote: shared ukrainian gen z childhood experience was to root for and to ask adults to vote for her just because she's the only woman (can't say for everyone but it's very close)

[...] Neil wrenched the broken bag off its hook. When he turned to throw it Andrew caught his wrist. Neil hadn't even heard Andrew cross the room toward him. Neil stared at him and through him, heart pounding in his temples. "It's ruined," Neil said, voice ragged with an awful rage. "It's all ruined."

"You know how to clean up a crime scene but not how to wash the fucking dishes ?!?

...

How is that even possible?! "

nothing in my mind except neil josten doing those gimmicky interviews

lie detector interview? he lies flawlessly. they ask him what team he’s on to test it and he says the trojans. the needle doesn’t move. no one knows what to do

answering the internet’s most googled question? neil doesn’t give away shit. (“what is neil jostens favorite hobby?” “lying to cops”) every question is answered with some version of your mother or an anecdote about something illegal

hot wings but neil and kevin do it versus each other. it quickly devolves into psychological warfare. neil adds hot sauce to kevin’s wing when he’s not looking

neil takes a buzzfeed which exy player are you the most like and when he gets riko he just walks out

literally any gimmicky pr stunt just dissolves into chaos

Moonjo could’ve filmed Jongwoo when he went rampaged in goshiwon

i just got the thought when talking to @anocturnaluniverse in twt

and when post-cannon Jongwoo tries to lie to himself ‘that wasn’t me, that was Moonjo.’ Moonjo then fishes out his phone 'looky here, Jagi’ he’d make dozens of backup files and rewatch it religiously too.
