Neil, Pointing At Andrew: My Last Piece Of Humanity

it’s aftg o’clock for my brain again

yes i too was shocked when i realised everyone wanted to shag each other. it was literally just a five way. that's the entire book.

So, for my sanity. Let me get this straight (lol); Henry was in love with Camilla and she was in love with him. And Richard was also in love with Camilla but she friendzoned him. Francis and Camilla had kissed (twice) and Charles was furious. Francis was flirting with Richard the entire time ( "cubitum eamus") Richard fantasized about spending his old years with Francis (and they kissed ofc). Richard also described Henry in a very no homo way. Francis and Charles were secretly hooking up. And so were Charles and Camilla (also, Charles was an abuser, why don't people talk about that more?). Richard described Camilla to look very masculine and like Charles to a tee, so he also liked Charles (?). Bunny was a huge homophobe, kinda sus; also had a strange interest in Henry. And Henry was probably in love with Julian (that little weird kiss mentioned ounce). I am a missing something?

Donna. Donna. Donna, what tf is this book is about?

im addicted to the aesthetic that everything awful is beautiful enough to love

donna tartt: literally writes an entire 600 page book about how it can be dangerous to do things just for the aesthetic

us, already making pinterest boards: oh to be a classics student in vermont in the 80s drinking whiskey from a teacup and occasionally murdering people 

YES EXACTLY someone give me useless gay bastard andrew minyard

I'm a firm believer in the fact that Andrew, despite outward appearances, is the furthest thing from calm at all times. Especially when it comes to Neil. Pining Andrew's brain is a mess, he's yelling at himself for being so cryptic, when he tells Neil he would blow him his brain is going haywire. Because why would he say THAT. Of all things. He texts Renee that night, opening with "I'm a fucking idiot." She is used to this.

Okay so I'm watching Criminal Minds, right? And everyone's taking turns being kidnapped. And of course, my AFTG brainrot is like -- okay bet

A Fox gets kidnapped. Neil goes savage to get them back.

Not Andrew, that's too easy -- and I also want Andrew to be there to see it and also to help Neil and maybe protect the public from him.

Along that line, it can't be Kevin or Aaron or Nicky either -- because then I think Neil would bank his own rage to help Andrew navigate his panic.

Renee can handle herself. Neil & Andrew would worry, and they'd stop at nothing to get her back, but Renee is like them and that's different.

I think it's Dan.

Dan gets kidnapped and Neil goes into Dark Mode. He gets evil as shit. He uses all his survival skills in reverse to find her and doesn't give a fuck about the collateral damage he leaves in the wake of his warpath to get his sister back.

Is there really any wonder that he's named godfather to Dan & Matt's children? They know that no matter what he'll keep them safe.

why did you have to. call it an aquarium.

Never would've thought I'd be so emotionally invested in a bunch of problematicaly coded characters playing violent lacross in an aquarium.

I love you and you are the light of my life

when neil was going to save andrew at the hemmick's house, he knew exactly what kind of wood the door was, and how easy it would be to break through. that's what kind of guy he is. neil doesn't win fights, but he is damn good at a getaway. this is a really good example about how all of neil's knowledge is really selective because of his upbringing. we need more survivalist neil because he shows all these traits in the books, another example is when he hitchhiked from columbia to palmetto. please stop ignoring this because i want to see batshit insane neil on the run fics right now thx

I love that Good Omens has these two doofus being completely put upon yet completely smitten about one another, like they’re both VERY. AWARE. of the other’s many faults and at the same time completely blind to them

like in Aziraphale’s eyes, Crowley’s the smoothest motherfucker that has lived on this planet, just look at him being smugly superior in that bathtub of holy water, just, “i am crowley, i am just slick“ Crowley has never looked smoother than when he’s not himself

and to Crowley Aziraphale’s simply this super brave, cool-as-a-cucumber, doesn’t-flinch-at-the-threat-of-violence, looks-adversity-in-the-face-and-doesn’t-back-down, willing-to-stand-up-alone-against-the-Host utter BADASS

and I can’t help but picture Aziraphale happily chatting with Anathema and just, he can’t help it, it’s just second nature to him, to speak so highly of Crowley’s intelligence and cunning, and Anathema just looks at the gangly red-haired dude being harassed by and screaming obscenities at a smol Dog in her yard and go wtf this motherfucker???

and Crowley while he’d be plenty more discreet about it would let it slip during a conversation that Aziraphale’s made of stern stuff, unflappable I tell you, the guy gave away his sword and then fucking lied to God about it, can you believe it??? meanwhile Aziraphale’s flailing and failing at the most basic magic tricks before Adam’s very (compassionate) eyes and Anathema feels like she needs a drink

and i live for this “beauty competence is in the eye of the beholder” thing

Everyone is so Kevjean this, Kevthea that, Kandriel there. How about Kevin shouldn’t be with anyone who is associated with exy? How about Kevin finds a person in a class who doesn’t really know anything about exy? How about Kevin being loved for who he is without the immediate expectation of greatness? He deserves to find his worth and be loved and heal and simply exist outside of the game. He is more than just his performance on the court.

the actual funniest shit. an ideal world where aaron wasn't homophobic

What if Andrew bans everyone from calling Neil his boyfriend & Aaron just goes overboard to spite him calling Neil his "loverboy", "groupie", "squeeze", "side piece", "exclusive boy toy" etc

One day Aaron introduces Neil as "Andrew's love muffin" and the ban is officially off. 😆
