Andreil - Blog Posts

schrodinger's andreil where the thing between them is both Totally Nothing and Absolutely Everything

neil was on the run from his father, doing his best to anger the son of a mafia boss publicly, getting texted an ominous countdown every day and he was doing little side quests like fix twins relationship. are andrew and renee fucking? must find out. nope, andrew's gay thank god. what to do about renee tho? give her jean moreau's number! oh no andrew's car is completely unfixable. now what to do about that?

the way any combination between neil, andrew, jean and kevin works is so funny you can pair any of them or all of them it just works

can't stop thinking about how nora said that because jean and neil resemble each other a lot, if jean had stuck around more, he and andrew would've gotten along pretty well

andrew: happy birthday kevin [hands gift to neil]

you ever think about how neil came to the foxhole court every inch a lie but his friends made him into someone real? how he began trusting them with little parts of himself gradually, how he accepted that staying with them would mean death, and stayed anyway. about how he was their family, they were his. they were worth every every cut and bruise and scream. i will never move on from how neil found himself in the middle of these misfits, found trust and friendship and love and protection, found the wish to live instead of just survive, found the wish to stay and fight and protect instead of run away, because he finally found something worth fighting and staying and risking his life for.

headcanon that kevin starts to pick up on a bit of german since he's around the monsters so much and he absolutely hates that he's starting to understand andreil's insane brand of flirting when they think nobody who could understand it is around

still foaming at the mouth at the fact that neil and andrew have matching flip phones, matching coats, matching armbands, they both have keys to the maserati. the fact that they are inseparable to the point that jean notices the way they move like they are caught in each other's gravity, the lingering looks when one falls out of the orbit for too long. neil learning the importance of give and take from andrew and offering jean something in exchange for keeping him alive. you are what you love or whatever

one of the funniest things neil ever did was talk katelyn into talking aaron into talking andrew into having joint therapy sessions like damn he was plotting

i think one of my favorite things about aftg is how it so subtly shows such a deep level of affection through languages. like kevin learning french for jean even though it is a dangerous thing to do at the nest and neil and andrew learning a new language together post tkm and one of the first things jeremy asks jean being to teach him french. i want to know who you are in your mother language, i want to speak to you in a language that no one but us understands, i want to understand the language that you dream in

aftg is the opposite of that one post that's like "love was there, it didn't change anything" because love was there and it changed everything. i will always appreciate nora for believing in her characters' right to find love and heal and get their second and third and fifth chance.

thinking about the possible interactions we could get between neil and jeremy with neil's "overly nice people are unsettling and have something to hide" mentality and between andrew and jeremy with andrew's history of getting along well with and respecting kind people who choose to be good in spite of all the bad things life throws at them (renee, betsy, wymack)
