“Je m'appelle Neil,” he continued.

absolutely Obsessed with aaron pov fanfics. would actually be willing to change my major to bioengineering just for a canon aaron pov of tkm. needing his thought process when he realizes all the signs that he missed after allison outs andriel. needing to hear his thoughts as he realizes that this thing between andrew and neil is something serious, something important, like when andrew left the dorm with wet hair and neil’s clothes. needing to hear his worry, concern, and care for andrew’s safety and wellbeing.
needing to watch him slowly come to terms with neil’s presence in andrew and his lives, not really enjoying the fact but acknowledging it nonetheless. needing to know his true thoughts on andrew’s sexuality, and how long it takes for him to dismiss it. needing to know what he really feels when he thinks about nicky and the life he helped the twins build. needing to know if it ever hurts him to simply look at andrew and remember what has happened to him, and how hard he tried to protect aaron from everything. needing to humorously watch him connect the dots when he realizes what andriel gets up to behind closed doors, and needing to hear him talking to katelyn about his relationship with his brother. need to watch this man fall in love with his queen, holding her hand, being soft with her. needing to know exactly what he’s thinking when he realizes that andrew, apathetic “i don’t want anything” andrew, loves would do anything for a feral hellhound named neil josten.

i'm probably extremely late to the party but i just realized how deep Andrew's sacrifice and Aaron's betrayal go when it come to the Twinyard's dynamic like??
Andrew, after having spent years alone in the foster system and suffering through the trauma that comes with it, he finally found Cass, a woman who genuinely cared about him and wanted to be his mother - someone he was willing to sell his soul (and body) to the devil for and endure the abuse Drake put him through bc that was just the price he had to pay for Cass' love, care and kindness. all bc he dared being selfish and wanting something for himself for once. he loved her and wanted her love back so bad to the point he would cut himself to cope with being in that house when Cass wasn't looking.
after accepting this new reality of his and resigning himself to the pain (psychological, emotional, physical and self-inflicted), he found out he had a twin brother who looks EXACTLY like him yet got to live a (to his knowledge) stable loving life with their birth mother. that Andrew got thrown away while his carbon copy had everything.
he hated the revelation so he put it out of his mind, went back to Cass' where Drake found out abt Aaron and ran his mouth abt having both twins for himself and... it's not like Andrew hated nor loved or felt any kind of attachment to his brother (who was still basically a stranger to him), and yet he knew, bone-deep, that 1) no one deserved to go through what Andrew had (especially someone 'untouched' (so to speak) who looked like him; as in, the picture in Andrew's mind resembled a young, still innocent, 7y/o Andrew who had not yet fully grasped or learned how to deal with just how cruel the world could be when thinking abt Aaron in the same position), and 2) he didn't want to give Drake the satisfaction.
so, Andrew, after having endured however long Drake's abuse in Cass' household and cutting himself to cope with it, all for the right to stay with her, he gave it all up when he received Aaron's letter asking to meet and rejecting the offer with a 'fuck off' bc he could not risk Aaron getting too close and going through anything remotely similar. he didn't owe his brother anything, nor had they made a deal by that point, yet Andrew, despite not really knowing Aaron, could not risk getting him into his own shit. and so, all those years of pain and sacrifice Andrew had to endure went down the drain bc he wanted to protect a stranger wearing his face, out of his own volition.
Andrew then did sth that landed him in juvie and thought everyone's safe now bc Drake can't get to Aaron anymore, until Aaron visited Andrew in juvie and Andrew noticed the bruises on Aaron's arms and Andrew realized Aaron might not be as safe as he'd thought after all.
ALL that pain and sacrifice thrown away to protect his twin and the fucker still wasn't safe?? mother dearest count your days.
so he got out of juvie early on good behavior (which was a bitch to manage but what was he to do when he had to leave to protect his brother?) and adopted into the Minyard household to see who was hurting his stranger of a brother, for whom Andrew has already given so much up?
Aaron, as we know, agreed to Andrew's deal, not expecting his brother to commit matricide bc of it. a deal which to Andrew seemed simple enough: 'l'll protect you and help you get into med school and become a doctor and all you have to do is stick together with me' (aka not let anyone (women in particular) get between us).
so, after all that sacrifice, after sacrifice, after putting his life on the line by participating in Tilda's car accident, getting his brother clean, curating his friend group to a drug-free environment (later also putting his own reputation with the team on the line by violently getting matt clean for the same reason), getting him a scholarship to get into med school and become a doctor (as agreed), THIS FUCKER could not even hold up his own end of the deal while Andrew literally checked every box and then some for his idiot ungrateful brother.
meanwhile it took Aaron seeing Andrew get sa'd, killing his abuser, and years of joint therapy to begin to comprehend just how much Andrew endured, sacrificed, risked and overall did for him without Aaron even realizing. bc Andrew doesn't do what he does for recognition or gratitude, he does it bc that's what's been agreed to.
---
this is not meant to diss Aaron's character but simply put the entire situation into perspective from Andrew's POV. like, no offence to Aaron but Andrew legit bent over backwards for him and Aaron's response was just "ure a psycho, i choose Katelyn" (or at least that's how Andrew viewed it)
all that being said, Andrew definitely could've communicated the situation and his intentions better, or at least explain how much those deals really meant to him, but unfortunately he wasn't quite there yet (if ever) <- in other words: it wasn't Aaron's nor Andrew's fault. shit's just shit sometimes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

in a world with an aftg show (because it Has to be a show, not a movie) seth would have a Pretty Guy actor playing him who looked even prettier when he was sneering or scowling and people would make edits of him with the velocity + slo-mo effects and be like "i can fix him"
#and kevin would be it boy of the century and matt would be THE 2000s icon along with allison#neil's the one who looks scrappy and jumpy (which he is) but everyone's gonna be in love with his sharp tongue and hater behavior#everyone would either hate andrew or love him and obv i fall into the second category i'd be no. 1 andrew minyard apologist/defender/lover/#everyone (including myself) would love nicky if this adaptation of him didnt come with all those predatory jokes godbless#everyone else is an icon. yes even aaron who's way too detached from the foxes but he partially slays just being a fox and king of idgafdom#the girls are icons obviously duhhh#but i think with riko the actor would be soooo good and pretty like scary pretty that people make edits and the captions are like DISCLAIME#wymack would have sooo many edits with the sound of whatever's trending that's equivalent to the usher DADDY'S HOME one#i actually have so many thoughts ab an aftg show despite how much i dont want it like i cant help it! aftg slays too much!#these bitches r all too damaged! i love them all too much! i think ab them all the time!#lots of people hate but aftg and the foxes r genuinely some of the most well written relationships to me probably bc i can personally relat#and i think a show would allow for other scenes that we dont see in the book bc theyre all from neil's pov and we don't really find anythin#know anything ab the other foxes beyond what neil knows himself#and LEST I FORGET. JEAN MOREAU. ICON OF THE CENTURY METHINKS...!#neil josten#andrew minyard#kevin day#dan wilds#allison reynolds#renne walker#matt boyd#aaron minyard#nicky hemmick#seth gordan#s4pphoiduser#aftg#all for the game#the foxhole court#the raven king#the king's men

When growing up feels like burning out
Hey so I want to recommend a fic called “When growing up feels like burning out.” It’s basically an Aaron centric about how he is asexual and how him and katelyn got together and includes a bit of the twinyards relationship. I love it and they way the characters are portrayed especially katelyn because she’s portrayed differently in this fic than others and it just makes sense. The authors tumbler is @figuringthengsout I can’t remember their Ao3 account tho. But I really recommend this fic!
Oh this is one of my favorite Aaron fics too! So much growth and depth to the characters, and a lot of honesty in the writing by @figuringthengsout. Thanks for the rec! -F
When growing up feels like burning out by ElephantLoveMedley [Rated T, 52930 words, Complete 2022]
How Aaron Minyard managed to juggle med school, a difficult relationship with his brother, being an athlete and making new friends that maybe aren’t just friends.

More happy than not
Aaron should be happy. He got everything he wants. Well not in the ways he wants or expects, but still he should be more than content. He has his loving cousin, a team he is begrudgingly tolerating, decent grades, his relationship with his brother is somehow mending because of some meddling ginger, and he got a boyfriend.
A sweet, caring, hot, smart boyfriend. Never in a million years will Aaron ever expect himself to date Kevin Day but here he is, in Kevin’s arms, lounging on the couch, Kevin reading some history books he like and Aaron napping until he woke up.
“Hey, I got to go practice, see you later,” giving Aaron a light peck, Kevin leaves, following Andrew and Neil to their car.
The thing is, Aaron only has Kevin because Andrew has Neil. Aaron knows that he is never the first choice, no, he isn’t even an option. Even before Kevin asked him out Aaron knows deep down, but Aaron is a masochist so he accepts because it is better to be the replacement and have a part of Kevin’s heart than none at all.
Every time Kevin leaves to practice with Andrew and Neil Aaron’s heart breaks a little more. But every kiss from Kevin brings those pieces back together, but it will never be whole because how can Aaron’s heart be whole when he knows that when Kevin is kissing Aaron all he is thinking about is Andrew. That Kevin wishes it is Andrew he is touching instead of Aaron. Aaron has accepted these facts since he agreed to be Kevin’s boyfriend. Yet it still hurts. Especially seeing the way Kevin’s eyes lit up when he sees Andrew actually putting in effort, and how Kevin turns away whenever Andrew kisses Neil. Of course Aaron has noticed all these details.
All these Aaron tries to convince himself maybe it is all his assumptions and paranoia. But a few months into their relationship, Kevin confesses when they are discussing past relationships.
“Yeah, my first kiss is actually Jean, not Thea. But then we were too afraid to do anything about it.”
“Do you regret it?”
“A little,” Kevin says honestly. One thing Aaron loves about Kevin is his ruthless honesty that people think is rude or heartless. But Aaron loves how he doesn’t hide anything. Doesn’t mean that his sharp, true words didn’t make his heart bleed.
“But I will always love Jean, as a friend. I’m just super happy for him and Jeremy, I’m glad he has him. I just hate how I left him and couldn’t be there for him.” Aaron squeezes Kevin tighter, and Kevin presses a kiss into Aaron’s hair and Aaron cannot help but melt.
“Just Thea then?” Aaron asks.
“Well, I think I did have a crush on Andrew.” Kevin says guiltily. Aaron tightens his arms around Kevin. “He is just there, promising to protect me from Riko. And, I was so lost, doesn’t help that he is also attractive.” Kevin winks at Aaron. Aaron feels like he cannot breath.
“Is it just Kaitlyn for you?” Kevin asks.
“Yeah,” and Aaron doesn’t elaborate because they all know the story.
It’s been several months since that conversation but there isn’t a single day that Aaron hasn’t thought about it. He trusts Kevin that he will never do anything to betray Aaron. And of course Andrew will never ever cheat on Neil. Anyone that knows them know that.
So, Aaron just lives with the fact that he is not the person his boyfriend wants but just the stand in, the next best thing Kevin can have because Aaron is just right there and conveniently looks like Andrew.
Every kiss from Kevin kills and melts him. Every hug from Kevin leaves him breathless. Every time they fuck Aaron feels like crying because of how good it is and-
Aaron Minyard should be grateful for all that he has now because he never thought he will mount to anything. So this is already more than he deserves.

I seriously do not understand the claim that Aaron is homophobic. He’s called out Nicky when he makes flirtatious remarks toward Neil yes, but only when it’s borderline harassment. (shown in the image below. followed by andrew threatening Nicky with a knife. it’s revealed later that andrew was raped by his foster brother, making his reaction to this remark and Nicky’s casual response make more sense to the audience. Note also: this was not the only instance of harassment Nicky showed toward Neil, but I won’t go into detail here.)
Tumblr media
Beyond his reaction to Nicky’s overboard sexual comments, I’ve also seen people cite Aaron’s aggressive (verbal) reaction to Neil and Andrew’s ‘relationship’ (i believe undefined at this point) as a case of homophobia. I would argue however that he’s simply being protective of Andrew (similar to how Andrew is protective of Aaron. He has recently killed Drake at this point and wants to be sure Neil is not similarly taking advantage of his brother). Honestly I just don’t see the homophobia there. Maybe it is and i’ve missed by paying more mind to Seth’s prominant use of slurs. I don’t know. But I feel Aaron is more often portrayed as homophobic in fanon than i feel is warranted by canon.
*feel free to argue with me, if i’ve missed something vital i’d like to know.

The foxes as the champagne problems bridge :))
Renee: 
Your Midas touch on the Chevy door
November flush and your flannel cure
Matt
"This dorm was once a madhouse"
I made a joke, "Well, it's made for me"
Neil
How evergreen, our group of friends
Don't think we'll say that word again
Kevin
And soon they'll have the nerve to deck the halls
That we once walked through
Allison
One for the money, two for the show
Aaron
I never was ready, so I watch you go
Dan
Sometimes you just don't know the answer
'Til someone's on their knees and asks you
"She would've made such a lovely bride
Andrew
What a shame she's fucked in the head, " they said
Nicky
But you'll find the real thing instead
She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred

thinking abt how a lot of people didn’t rly like declan lynch in pre dreamer trilogy (because we only got to see him thru other characters’ povs and those characters don’t rly like him either) and how a lot of people don’t rly like aaron minyard (because we only get to see him thru neil’s unbelievably unreliable and biased narration) and thinking abt the venn diagram that is declan/aaron.
both “better loved” brothers (declan finding out he was the favorite all along and it was his love for ronan that kept ronan alive. aaron being kept instead of andrew, living some semblance of a normal life before things got really bad, and aaron insisting on finding andrew because he wanted to know his brother)
declan’s gunning people down in a last ditch attempt to save his loved ones even tho it put his own life at risk. aaron killing drake to save his brother without any hesitation even tho it could derail his own life.
both of them self isolating because the alternative is more painful. declan being afraid to love jordan because she’s another dream and he’s tired. aaron being afraid to love and be around katelyn because he made a promise to his brother.
both of them with their high aspirations, under constant stress. both of them suffering from ulcers. both of them cunts who dislike their brothers’ bitchy boyfriends <3
