But he is Neil Josten, so even in his state, he’s certainly not shutting the hell up.
When he does, the dark intensity in his eyes almost leaves him speechless.
“You don’t have to explain,” Andrew sounds almost angry as he says those words and Neil tilts his head to look at his face again. “I spent a lot of- a lot of time…” he is so tired, he can hardly form sentences. He hasn’t heard that accent in years, Jesus, much less from himself. “I never…” this time as he speaks, he finally realises the thick accent slipping into his words and, for some reason, it makes him smile. He doesn’t need protection from his Foxes. “Nicky,” Andrew warns him, but Neil shushes him. “Holy shit, Neil,” he hears Nicky saying. “Neil,” Dan starts, and the surprise in her eyes is slowly turning to a lovely glint that says ‘he’s so silly, I love him’ ten times over, “you never told us you had… an accent.” “What?” He’s sure he’s said more scandalous things over the course of the night, but as soon as that one word is out, everyone seems even more taken aback. “You know, not long ago,” he says, interrupting something Renee is saying to add to the story, and he’s slurring his words a bit but he doesn’t think any of them care, “I truly felt like I couldn’t trust any of you, can you imagine? And look at me now, willingly spilling all my secrets.” He snorts at himself, but nobody else laughs.Īll eyes are on him in a second and when Neil looks confusedly up at him, he sees Andrew is visibly frowning, but he’s the only one who doesn’t seem overtly surprised by his words. Neil is not okay.Įxcept Neil is very okay, basically drunk off the tiredness and all the positive energy and attention from the Foxes, and his walls are coming down faster than he can say shingeki no kyogin. Jostle sounds a loooot like Neil’s surname… ha…. He is so, so thankful, feels so warm and loved and lovely with them all around him - even Aaron has some sort of orangey aura tonight that makes him look like if Neil tripped and fell into his lap he wouldn’t immediately jostle him. Neil doesn’t think he’s been this tired in months, possibly longer, but at the same time, he doesn’t want to go to sleep and leave his Foxes yet.Īndrew’s hand slowly caressing the inside of his arm has long since stopped giving him goosebumps and it’s now a comforting reminder that he’s there his strong shoulder underneath Neil’s cheek a gentle promise that if he were to fall asleep on the spot, he wouldn’t wake up with a sore neck. I looooove accents jfc this is like a thing for me okay and since there isn’t just one British accent and you haven’t specified I’m gonna go big (because go big or go home, right) and gift Neil with a thick, thick Yorkshire accent (I’m not gonna write dialect so if you don’t know how it sounds you should watch like a minute of this and imagine Neil talking like that… there ya go) I want my baby did to get a HAPPY ending God dammit! Thank you for coming to my rant.Anonymous asked: Prompt where Neil hides a British accent from the foxes to hides his identity but when he comes to the hotel after the Baltimore thing he lets it out and their all like the fuck Give me Jack working to amend his relationship with his teammates anx try to pick up the broken piecesof his life and find someone who cares about him.
Don't get me wrong, what Jack did was NOT ok but I would love to see a redemption piece. Maybe that's why he hates that Neil and Andrew gets their future but Jack can't find his happy ever after. Going back to childhood trama, maybe his parents weren't ok with him being gay and hurt him. About the homophobic stuff, I'm not saying it was okay, but I believe with all my heart that Jack is a floated member of the LGTBQ+ community. I am considering writing a fanfics about it but I'm not sure. He has his guard way up and it comes off as mean and surly. Go! I think that Jack was harmed in one way or another. I have been wanting to rant about that for SO LONG so here. I know that Jack is a little creep in Aftg but I have a tendency to completely ignore the extra content about the freshman.
