This Quote Means A Lot To Me That It Became My Fav 🤍 Happy New Year Btw ❤️

do you have any fics where neil is like kinda mean to the foxes or like stands up to them? i want fics where they realize that he’s not very innocent. or just any fics where he’s in character? i hate ones where he acts like a baby. thank you so much for all the work you do!! <3

We had a merry discussion about what is “in character” for Neil, and you might be surprised at the different aspects that we listed. That aside, I think you’ll enjoy many fics in our previous asks, particularly ‘Neil says it's fine I've had worse’ at the top. You’ll also find dark!, bamf!, and butcher!Neil there, plus him standing up to the Foxes about his sexuality or their treatment/dismissal of Andrew. - A

For someone as oblivious as him he wondered how he had survived all those years.

His Father's Eyes by maeusetod [Not Rated, 3012 Words, Complete, 2016]

Sometimes Neil had thought about, when and under which circumstances he would hear the name Nathaniel again, but he had not expected it to happen like this.

Time’s up, Junior.

Indeed. Indeed it was. For who though, Nathaniel was unsure. All he knew for certain that the blood on the wall was still wet, not yet tacky which meant that he wasn't too far behind his fathers trail. He would catch up to him, this he knew with single-minded determination and it would either end in his death or his fathers. Maybe both. One way or another though, he would finish this.

Or, Neil never ends up going back to Baltimore. Instead, his father comes to Palmetto.

Lifeline by pandaseek [Rated T, 231608 words, incomplete, last updated Oct 2021]

"What is your name." He wouldn't care usually, but the way this kid had avoided it last time he asked, he was curious.

"I've had six so far." He answers slowly, weighing each word. "Which one do you want?"

Six names? Yep, there is something going on there.

"The real one. The one that fits you best."

"Not my birth name then?" He sounds almost hopeful?

Andrew waits until he sorts through his thoughts. He has another hour before he has to go back.

"Abram." He decides after a long pause. "It's my middle name. The only one that doesn't have to change because it can just as easily be left out."

Happy 20th, Anniversary to this film! (November 17th, 2000)

To a Decade of Anime

I can’t believe how fast time has gone, like how are we already at the end of a decade! Nevertheless, it has been a crazy couple years for me and I’m sure for most of us, lots of growing up and life changes. One thing that was special about this decade is I got into anime. I’ve always been a reserved person and around my high school days I had a lot of responsibilities that made it hard to do the things “normal” teenagers did. I think it would be safe to say that anime gave me enjoyment in life and the stories to be told. From the tearjerkers to the “WTF did I just watch”, the series that made me laugh like a maniac and the ones that left several holes in my walls, anime has definitely impacted my life one way or another (^^).

So to end this decade I’m going to be listing my favorite anime, some honorable mentions and underrated anime for each year (2010 - 2019). These are solely based on my own opinion and some shows not on here may just be ones I haven’t watched yet. Also I’m not going to be putting any continuing seasons, only season ones. I know I’m not very present on Tumblr as I used to be but I really love being on this platform. Happy new year and I hope the next decade treats everyone nice!

“u changed” bro supernatural is ending

Is this a fight or a football match like damn

They are being really aggressive...

Nice have lost their fucking minds. Literally tackling us every single time our boys touch the ball. Chill the fuck out you crazies.

“They didn’t teach you in school to leave your work and go to the window five minutes to let the sun warm your soft skin; they didn’t teach you to pause. They taught you to bottle up your emotions, they didn’t teach you to go to your friend and talk five minutes when you felt sad, so your cotton heart could light up again and go back to your work free of mental burdens. They didn’t teach you to go to an open window and listen to five minutes the musicality of birds or the hysterical screams of playing kids, or watch the trees wave at you so you could feel connected to a wider realm where your energy was welcome. And now you feel guilty when you can’t immediately achieve your work because you couldn’t see that the powerful wind often stops as well before it starts again, you don’t know how to recharge your batteries merely by feeling the sun biting your skin, you lost touch with the pacifying noises of the whole world keeping its activities while you spend your time worrying that you might fail. You are not broken; you are mistaken, and you must start again to allow yourself to give to your natural needs and rhythms an unshakable voice. You must care enough about it: it comes first and anything else follows. We are sentient beings.”
