Neil “I know I lived through it to get to this moment” Josten
okay but jean's surprise at the banquet when neil understands his french. jean who spoke french to neil in the nest. jean who probably hadn't spoken french since kevin left. jean who hasn't had anyone to speak to in the language he's most comfortable in for so long.
jean finding out his lost forever partner speaks french.
i want us all to sit and think more about the "he was jean’s misplaced forever partner, an unfulfilled promise jean had stopped believing in years ago" quote. those words are in jean's pov. are jean's thoughts. he lived for years thinking mournfully of nathaniel, of what he could have had. imagine him meeting neil for the first time and watch him talk to riko without holding back, without fear. i know that maybe he believed that neil would have suffer in the nest because of his bratty attitude but i also know that one part of him was selfish enough to imagine a life where nathaniel was his shield in the nest, of nathaniel talking back to riko because of him, of nathaniel protecting him, of nathaniel making his life more bearable.
little does he know that if only neil were in the nest he would have never left jean behind.
after a lifetime of people using him for physical pleasure and discarding him when he was no longer useful, Andrew finally found someone who couldn't care less about sex and genuinely wants him for him, and he's going to spend the rest of his life with him <3
Yes we are in love. It is a place that we live in. We reside in love like it’s a forest; an enchanted wood and we are it’s deer and stags, leaping over walls and eating it’s fruit.

the golden raven. as in the raven in the gold court. as in no matter what uniform jean wears he'll always be a raven.
‘don’t you want your favourite character to be happy???’ no? i want my favourite character to be interesting. i want me to be happy. which sometimes involves my favourite character being in exquisite agony
everytime i remember that the premise of aftg is neil josten getting y/n sold off to exy one direction i lose my mind a little bit
currently rewatching haikyuu for the first time in a while, and i can’t remember if nora said it was an inspiration for her or not but damn.
a short redhead # 10 who is obsessed with a sport and has his speed as his number one asset?
and has his significantly taller black haired best friend who is equally as obsessed with the sport and is a prodigy he looks up to?
double damn.
