THE FOXHOLE COURT BONUS CHAPTERS SPOILERS BELOW
Thinking about how, after Riko's death, maybe Kevin was given a box when he and Wymack attended the funeral. About Kevin getting back all of his books on history, his favorite hoodie, all of the things that he'd left behind when he ran.
And maybe, just maybe, tucked into the box among his other abandoned possessions, he finds old photographs of himself and Riko as children, grins wide with missing teeth and little league exy racquets in their hands. Of awkward teenagers in suits that make them look like they're playing at being grown as they attend their first press conference. He finds old, folded notes written in Japanese and scrawled on torn sheets of notebook paper passed between them during their homeschooling lessons.
Kevin feels safe enough with his father at his side to allow himself to grieve not only the loss of his best friend of twenty years, but also the people that he and Riko could have been if things had been ever so slightly different.
How many times do you think the Foxes have joked about similarities between Kevin and Wymack before they knew? They’d laugh about how “you’ve perfected Coach’s look of disappointment” and Kevin would stare off into space for a moment, a little bit wistful, a little bit pleased, before play on the court resumes under Wymack’s direction.
NEW ANDRIEL COMIC PAGE! ✨
I just read a incredible fanfic this days that makes me feel so cozy and warm omg I almost wished to die (jk haha) hope u enjoy
So many of the foxes have sex related trauma.
Dan was a stripper as a minor. I imagine she was regularly harassed at work.
Renee was raped as a child.
Allison was being assaulted when Seth saved her.
Matt lost his virginity as a minor to a prostitute at one of his dad’s parties and let his dad’s friends use him when he was high. He might not consider it rape but I (and the law) do.
Kevin didn’t really have a choice to consent when Riko decided that he and Kevin were going to lose their virginity to Lydia. Plus Riko was in the room for Kevin and Thea’s first time.
Nicky was sent to camp for being gay.
Andrew was raped as a child and an adult.
Neil was beaten by his mother for just kissing a girl.
The only ones I don’t think have anything mentioned are Aaron and Seth.
“You’ve endured the storm long enough. Don’t you think you’re overdue for some rainbows?”
“What you hold onto is less important than the act of holding on itself. It’s so easy to get lost in ourselves and this world. Sometimes you need to find your way back one tiny miracle at a time.”
“I have enough faith for us both"
“I’m so proud of you for making it this far. I’m excited to see how far you can go from here when you can finally spread your wings without fear. Fly safe, Jean. We will see you on the court in finals.”
Andrew is the favorite uncle. Not just for Aaron and Nicky’s kids but all the foxes kids are just obsessed with uncle Andrew.
None of the foxes understand why except for Neil. But that only because Neil is there when Andrew gets up at three am to answer a phone call from their sobbing niece, who admits for the first time out loud that maybe she isn’t a boy and “is that okay uncle Andrew”. Or when Kevin’s kid shows up at there house after getting in an argument with her dad and Andrew lets her rage and rant until it doesn’t seem like the end of the world anymore, then walks her home (hc: they live pretty close for a while cause their on the same team). Or when nobody can get Aaron’s twins to stop crying but as soon as Andrew is given a turn at trying to calm the babies they stop immediately.
The kids all love Andrew he’s the first one they go to with their issues, he’s the first one they run too when all the foxes are together, he’s the first one that they come out too if they’re queer(Nicky is so mad when his kid comes out to Andrew before him)
He’s just a really good uncle.
Imagine you had the hardest last few weeks of your life. Everything you know is falling apart and you couldn’t even get out of bed because of your injuries. You were transferred to another team without much of a choice once again. You get to an airport to be greeted by the captain of said team and the man is PLAYING WITH A YOYO. I would’ve offed myself like my god
There is poetry in Nathaniel finding belonging with the change of his name. Natalie finding salvation by the God that damned Nicky.
There is poetry in Andrew and Aaron finding a family in Nicky when he was cast away from his.
There is poetry in Allison relishing in the money that was meant to be hers but never got in the end, poetry in Andrew hating the money he was never meant for.
There is Poetry in Aaron having a mother that wronged him, and Matt being righted by his.
There is poetry in the way Dan had to fight to keep afloat, where it was Allison fighting that got her cut off in the end
There is poetry in Nicky finding love and himself abroad, where Nathaniel ran from all that he was
There is poetry in Matt with a loving mother who showed him how to live, and Neil who was kept alive by his own.
There is poetry in the foxes
Mayhaps I just have way too much hubris, but I feel like we as a fandom could make that "100th place" climb higher if we just intentionally create and consume more fanfics
imagine neil and andrew sleeping together in the beggining of their relationship and then andrew has s nightmare (but as nora says they don't scream or be emotive about it) so he just open his eyes and watches neil sleeping calmfully in front of him and then he continues to watch neil until he falls sleep too as thinking to himself that his safe and how much he loves neil
