no you don't understand I have four assignments due Tonight and I haven't started any of them

BUT IM HAVING THOUGHTS ABOUT JEAN MOREAU

Nothing makes me roll my eyes more than when ppl post stuff like : omg kevin fumbled jean omg he fumbled Jeremy omg ... like no he didnt fumble shit he's traumatised and was brainwashed Into thinking exy is all he has, the game his mom invented to have fun , his mom's legacy was ruined for him to the point he can't exist outside it .. he was abused by his own god father the person who his mom trusted to care for him.. kevin didn't fumble shit, kevin can't even see anything past the court because he doesn't know anything but

I feel like Jean describes Neil like how folk tales describe foxes

"Nathaniel smiled with so much ice Jean thought the room dropped a few degrees. The adrenaline rush of what he'd survived, of the trick he'd managed to play on a too-powerful man, was going to his head."

An incredibly cunning little creature able to dupe beings larger than themselves. A dangerous little trickster. One whose strength is speed and cleverness and if that isn't my Neil Josten idk what is 🦊

i cannot stop thinking about the parallels between jean and neil. about how jean's story could have easily been neil's, had his mother not taken him and run. we see glimpses of jean's fire and, dare i say, attitude, with his povs during tsc, and how carefully he masks it all after years of abuse and torture. yes, neil is a fighter, but so is jean. when he was first sold to evermore, he pushed back time and time again until he was too tired to go on. if neil had been sold the way jean had, with nobody to save him, i think they would have ended up on the same path. they both mirrors of what could have been

The best thing about getting more books about Jean is that now there isn’t only one draft where he survives. Every discarded draft is another universe where Jean Moreau survives and heals.

neil josten was truly the man of all time for telling us that it’s always okay to know absolutely nothing because we may end up serving accidental cunt anyway

The real tattoos

Drawing these made me realise I can’t wait for the rest of Jean’s reinvention. He’s the most powerful force on the board and hasn’t even got started yet…

‘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

I feel like Andrew Minyard is like a Telltale game character with a glitch, so this is just stuck on the screen

Neil “I know I lived through it to get to this moment” Josten

the foxhole court is just neil and andrew discovering that they match each others freak and then fighting the mafia over the right to continue doing so. also kevin is there.

Andrew: This is my boyfriend Neil, his boyfriend Kevin, and their boyfriend Exy

jean moreau dying in every universe except this one. and in this one he gets three whole books to overcome it and heal and have a story of his own

we’re going to see jean moreau be happy. jean is gonna heal and be happy do you guys realize this

girl help there’s people straight up “misinterpreting it” and well . haha by “it” i mean “my favorite media”

“true love” this, “endgame” that. what about “compelling dynamic that’s fun to explore”

me: *sees the color orange in literally any context*

me: this is exactly like The Foxhole Court (2013)

hey babe sorry i couldn’t make it to our date tonight i thought about jean moreau too hard and got sad

neil josten in a nutshell

Ill never forgive the aftg fandom for saying aftg is poorly written but loveable. it is so fucking well written. The characters are all interesting individually and as group dynamics. The plot is unexpected but always makes sense. Theres so many incredible 1 liners said. Theres humour. Theres heartfelt love. Theres angst. You can cry and you can laugh and you can get invested. Nora made characters with actual fucking personalities instead of just catalysts for neil's story. She did this so well she was able to take 2 minor characters and give them an entire sequel.

neil, kevin, and jean are so girl, so confusing coded i am shakinggg
