My biggest flex will always be how I knew Neil was the more feral and dangerous one than Andrew this whole time even before tsc and seeing the entire fandom freaked out makes me want to kiss and hug Nora and just thank her for finally finally showing everyone and I’m not just crazy

#seeing all the post about like omg Neil is so feral?! like brother did you not read aftg did y’all forget aftg is from Neil’s pov #ofc Neil wouldn’t say he’s feral in his own pov tf😭😭😭#and remember in aftg Neil still has to hide part of himself BECASUE his father and eveyrhhing but now he’s literally free from his biggest #fear and he could do whatever the fuck he wants #Istg the fandom is like the foxes man idk why everyone is so shook #literally cant thank Nora enough for showing everyone finally #Idc if I sound proud or whatever but I fucking knew it this entire time and I have been shouting it for so long like finally #that’s why so many fics annoyed me so much like #I just needed to say this because I finally felt seen and heard andFINALLY LIKE URGH #tsc and aftg supremacy #tsc #tsc spoilers #the sunshine court #the sunshine court spoilers #aftg #all for the game #tfc #the foxhole court #aftg series #aftg fandom #aftg incorrect quotes #neil josten #andrew minyard #andrew joseph minyard #neil abram josten #aftg neil #aftg thoughts #aftg textpost #aftg shitpost #incorrect tfc

Absolutely cannot get over the fact that I just know if I’d had read AFTG back in my middle school/high school years, it would’ve completely changed the trajectory of my life. Genuinely I think I would’ve wound up a different person.

#like i’m glad i finally read it but i just KNOW MS/HS me would’ve lost her shit #it would’ve changed me i think #aftg #all for the game #andrew minyard #neil josten #andreil #the foxhole court #tfc #nora sakavic

Pic context: Talking about the exy stadium at USC considering the fact that USC is a real school

I love how Nora just invents things in order to avoid complications with real-life things.

Like, using USC's football stadium as the exy stadium too would take a lot of work to figure out how that would be possible. Solution: invent a new stadium!

Having the characters play a real sport that already exists would mean looking into all the rules and regulations and history, etc, and there could be multiple elements of the sport that work against the plot of the story or complicate it in some way. Solution: invent a new sport!

I mean, it gives her full creative control over what happens in the story, and we as readers get to learn about a cool new thing without feeling the need to fact-check every element. Tbh, it makes so much sense to me.

Like, go off! Make stuff up! It's your world. We're just reading and enjoying and becoming obsessed with it!!!

#also the fact that palmetto state university is made up #it's based on an actual college but it doesnt actually exist lol #and again i think that makes sense #it allows us to become immersed in this fiction story even though it takes place in our world #i think having these elements unique to that world also makes it easier to go along with the plot #like imagine if neil was being hunted by his serial killer father and the yakuza while attending the university of south carolina #and playing hokey or lacrosse or smth #the made up stuff helps woth the immersion imo #anyway i just wanted to point out how funny it was that her solution is to make stuff up #like makes sense 100% work smarter not harder #tbh if the series wasnt centered around a fake sport i prob wouldnt have read it 💀#like im just being real here #so thank you nora for going through the trouble of creating a whole new sport #bc im sure that was the final thing that convinced many people to read it (i.e. me)#anyway rant over #aftg #all for the game #nora sakavic #the sunshine court #tsc #the foxhole court #the raven king #the kings men #exy

Just read the whole 'how Andreil pans out' ask and all I'm saying is that I love the idea of Andrew Courting Abram and Abram just absolutely misses that it's what is happening. Part of it is just a cultural difference, Evermore and Palmetto have different courting cultures perhaps?

Another part is that Andrew really does not act all THAT different. He's giving Abram gifts but like Andrew is always giving Abram stuff? It's not new? Yeah they had dinner together but that's just like what they......do?

Another another part is just Abram not even considering himself as someone worthy to be with Prince Andrew like that. He wasn't worthy before and after Evermore and everything I could imagine he feels even less like a person let alone a person who deserves Andrew's positive regard.

IDK I just love the idea of Abram at some point like 6 months into Andrew trying to court him seeing that behavior somewhere else, being told that's how nobility in Palmetto court others, and going to Andrew like "Have you, perchance, been trying to court me?"

Andrew setting his glass aside and looking up from where he's seated, "For 6 moons Abram, glad you've finally noticed." - @jtl-fics

jtl I. Wish. You could have seen my face as I read this, this is so hilarious and heartbreaking and lovely all in one and I’m in LOVE okay i love this so much. And we can totally make it work ahhhhh

Like yes! Yeah! Andrew’s already a gift giver, it’s just what he does as far as Abram’s concerned, and they spend so much time together that dinner isn’t strange those are perfect points. Like to the court it’s starting to become obvious - maybe in the kinds of gifts Andrew gives, or some other small things that are new, yes, but Abram has always taken these things in stride and usually his lack of judgement when Andrew tries new things or changes in little ways is a huge relief but not this time Abram PLEASE

Finally Andrew just bites the bullet and goes for a gesture that’s way more out of character and harder to mistake, which might look something like this (and thank you @leedee013 for tags about them giving each other flowers that I LOVED):

And Abram can’t really form his thoughts into words because like you said; he doesn’t think he should be allowed something like that, there’s no way he’s ever EVER going to assume that Andrew is trying to confess or clue him in to a courting like this, even if it’s in his head now

But then Lady Reynolds sees Abram later heading back to the castle/wherever he stays carrying this bouquet of carnations (fascination), narcissus (honesty/truth) and acacia (hidden love) (let’s not look too closely into these flower meanings lol, i picked the first ones I found and I’ll field all further questions with ‘artistic liberty’ 🫶) and they’re pretty close friends by now so she’s immediately like “oh my GODS Abram who gave that to you”

And Abram quietly says “the prince”

And Allison’s won like three separate bets between various other people of the court and she’s elated

But maybe she takes pity on him when she realizes exactly how clueless Abram is, so she does her best to explain everything and finally, Abram begins to allow the possibility that maybe Andrew is doing all this on purpose. But he would really rather like to be certain.

And of course I had to draw your little exchange but I did it from memory so apologies for the changes in dialogue but I love it:

ANYWAY from there, when it’s cleared up, it’s just them being dumb and sweet and grasping at straws for how to be in love and natural about it (because they’re both very private people and a good number of average/expected acts of courtship aren’t necessarily in their wheelhouse) 😭🥹 and not to add yet more hurt/comfort but Andrew is so so determined to figure out a way to assure and reassure Abram that he knows what he’s doing, yes Abram is worth it, yes he’s doing these things because he wants to. If he didn’t want to he wouldn’t be doing it in the first place. And I’ll bring it back around by using my previously mentioned artistic liberty to say that yes Prince Andrew loves having his hands held/kissed (just by Abram naturally) and Abram figures this out and absolutely uses it against him. They love each other your honor

Okay anyway thank you for the ask, I’m SO lucky to have such brilliant people in my inbox 🥰

#STG I WAS SMILING SO BIG WHEN I READ IT THROUGH #yeah they probably would have very different traditions! I like that a lot!#so it’d be even funnier when Abram finally calms down and relaxes into it #and yeah they can do flowers that works fine #but he probably accidentally/as a last effort tries some traditions from his native kingdom #they’re trying so hard but it’s a little lost in translation #ships passing in the night #they’re hopeless and I love them #GOD KEVIN WOULD HAVE TO DO THE TRANSLATION OF THE DIFFERENT CUSTOMS #He wants out of it so bad but there’s literally no one else to ask 😂😭#idk if either of them would ever deign to involve or ask Kevin but now I’m laughing #anyway I need to stop or I’ll never shut up about this #thank you this is great #fan art #my art #aftg #all for the game #neil josten #andrew minyard #allison reynolds #royal au #asks #chibi

Everytime someone writes a fic where seth has no personality beside being toxic I lose my faith in humanity

#did we read the same book????#hello??#he smiles at allison as he raises his hands in surrender that he didnt bring any drugs with him #he called allison saying he finally believed he could make it #he protected neil from kevin even if it was very much biased bcs he hated kevin #he didnt want to be pushed arpund by others just bcs they were more famous and rich than him #he swooped his fist in joy and smiled when allison asked him to take her on a date #he punched the guys who tried to molest allison #he didnt want to leave allison alonw at reddin when she was taken their after almost being molested #he watched movies with matt #and even with neil when he came to palmetto #he wanted to apologise to allison for being a brute #I SWEAR #WHY DO YALL HATE HIM #aftg #all for the game #seth gordon #aftg seth #seth aftg #allison reynolds #kevin day #matt boyd

Tsc really shows us why Neil josten is Nora’s favourite character (as he should be) (he should be everyone’s favourite character)

#and tysm Nora for showing how wrong people have been about his character when Neil was always the most feral one out of everyone #the fandom is as blind as the foxes no one gets him like I do #once again pushing my agenda that Neil josten is the most dangerous character in the entire aftg (not counting ichirou)#this is similar to a previous post I made but whatevr this was in my drafts first lol #now I cant wait to read fanfics where Neil is finally finally the more feral one I cant wait #but so sad meaning if I read older fics neil is probably still uwu baby😭😭😭#but anyways #aftg #all for the game #tfc #the foxhole court #aftg series #aftg fandom #aftg incorrect quotes #andrew minyard #neil josten #andrew joseph minyard #neil abram josten #nathaniel wesninski #the sunshine court #tsc #tsc and aftg supremacy #aftg thoughts #aftg shitpost #aftg textpost #aftg trilogy #aftg neil

this is like 1000% german pettiness speaking but if I have to read more than two words in french in tsc even though in all the aftg books with 4 canon characters who were supposedly fluent in german there was no any on-page german words (aside from "ja" in book one), I will actually lose it.

#late night thoughts #every other book i read has like one french person in it #and i finally found one with german people only to find out they don't actually use german words #q #tsc #felt spicy might delete later #for legal reason THIS IS A JOKEE #aftg

"You have a good reason to be bothering me on a holiday?"

"I didn't know who else to call.”

"Neil? are you all right?"

"No. No, I'm not. I know it's kind of sudden, but can you come get me? I'm at the airport."

"Wait right there,I'm on my way."

#aftg #all for the game #neil josten #david wymack #I audibly screamed the first time I read this scene #The fact that evermore had to have been one of the worst experiences of Neil’s life for him to finally admit he wasn’t fine destroys me

I wish I could be normal about this book series, but instead I keep randomly picking them up and reading specific parts any time I think about said scenes.

#my posts #like #bro I just finished rereading them like a week ago I don't NEED to reread the scene from excites #AND YET #aftg #the foxhole court #all for the game #oh! and I finally read Lessons in Cartography on A03 btw #it's good. I didn't love the Jack situation but otherwise I thought it was really good #I see why people think of it as the 'unofficial sequel' and all #though I have like a decent chunk of other post canon fics I LOVE sooooo....#anyways.#this is just me rambling at this point.
