Most sports books are like “I need to win championships so I can prove myself!!!” and then there’s The Foxhole Court where the main character is like “yeah so if I don’t win championships I will literally be executed because when I was 10 my serial killer father tried to sell me to a cult so my assassin mother stole $5 million from the yakuza and ran away with me, but it turned out that my dad was friends with the leader of the mafia, so now we also had a bunch of hit men after us, and almost a decade later my dad caught up with us and killed my mom and I faked my death, so I decided to join a college sports team to start my new life, but then I found out one of my teammates is a runaway from the cult my dad tried to sell me to, and not only that but the cult’s leader is the brother of the head of the Japanese mafia, so now both of them are after me too, and also the FBI keeps trying to convince me to testify against my father, but if I do I’ll have to go into witness protection because my dad’s friends will try to kill me and I can’t be a professional athlete while under witness protection, but luckily my uncle (who is the leader of the British mob) brokered a deal that will assure my safety if I win championships as long as I hand over 80% of my salary to the mafia for the rest of my life.” And that’s only the main character, I haven’t even mentioned how insane some of the side characters’ backstories are!
Basically this is the most unhinged book I have ever read and I love it so much

We all know by now Andrew and Neil are light sleepers because of trauma and being in unsafe places but I just read some of the extras and I picture this scenario:
Andrew wakes up night after night when the cats jump onto the bed the first few months because he is not used to their weight and they didn't learn yet to do get on from Neil's side.
Neil of course gets woken up by Andrew's panic and gets worried (he's also starttled at first) and tries to help and reassure him, but at the end neither of them goes back to sleep.
At the beggining is fine, they are both used to fucked up schedules but they are people and obvious they start to get cranky and fight a lot (more) during the day for silly reasons. Other people is noticing it too and then it affects their performance on the court.
So one night, Andrew decides to "sleep" on the couch (he thinks he could be awake all night binging some show to avoid beeing paranoid) and this is because he saw that Neil really needed to sleep well at least one night. He does not feel guilty, tho, he's just Andrew and cares for Neil way more than he cares about himself.
Ok.
So that night he innevitably falls asleep and is woken up by Sir who is now on his chest curled up as a fluffy ball.
He starts to get mad, but he can't. Not really when he picks the cat up and it is sooooo soft. And then Sir tries to lick his hands (he might be snacking when he passed out) and lets out a quiet "meow" because he can't reach him well.
And Andrew looses it. He starts laughing to the point he cries.
Because everything is fine. It's just a cat. His cat.
And no matter how broken he is, Sir would love him and do it again a million times more. Because he had chosen him.
Just like Neil who's staring at this situation in silence from the livingroom door.

“I hate you”
“Nine percent of the time you don’t”
“Nine percent of the time I don’t want do kill you. I always hate you”
“No one asked you” With that, Andrew caught Neil’s face in his hands and learned in.
Andrew kissed him like this was a fight with their lives on the line, like his world stopped and started with Neil’s mouth.

Sometimes I forget just how terrible of a narrator Neil is. Like the only people that didn't catch onto Andrew's feeling were Neil and the audience. I wonder just how obvious Andrew was but we don't know about it because Neil is just so in his head about things he dismissed it

Headcannon that every year the foxes celebrate Neil’s birthday on a different day. Sometimes it’s 200 days after the last, sometimes it’s 400.And they would never tell Neil what day it was until the morning of, when they would barge into his bedroom with a cake with all matching birthday hats. Sometimes he’s even younger on his ‘birthday’. 20 one day and 18 the next.it becomes a running joke throughout college during press interviews.
“So neil how does it feel to have won the championship in your freshman year at only 19?”
“He was 16 actually.” - Matt
It trails into adulthood when they’re out of college and see eachother only on occasion. Hell get 6 random “HAPPY BIRTHDAY NEILS” when he wakes up and he knows he’s going to be bombarded for the whole day on social media. It gets to the point where neil genuinely forgets his actual birthday and although Andrew knows it, never tells him and watches him try to figure it out when asked about it.
A doctor after neil is thrown into the pexiglass during a game: age?
“I’m………….23..?” -neil
“He’s 21.” -Andrew
It confuses everyone to no end.

So in their first real kiss Neil described feeling andrews pulse against his wrist specifically, which implies that their wrists were touching, which implies that they were holding hands. Andrew was holding him down by holding Neils hands in his and if that isnt the most heartwarming thing ever idk what is

neil endured three weeks of endless physical and mental torture from riko just for the possibility to keep andrew safe. he betrayed every single thing he had learned since birth, he went against his chronic survival isntincts, the only thing that was keeping him alive until now, for the chance to protect andrew.

Andreil gives me the most comforting vibes of any couple I’ve ever read.
It’s long car rides to nowhere, holding hands over the center console. It’s sitting on the roof in peaceful silence, kissing under the stars, shadowed faces lit up by soft cigarette firelight. It’s terrifying, letting yourself be known little by little, a truth for a truth. It’s learning languages together, partially for the sake of having secret conversations and partially for the joy of sharing the journey.
It’s getting an apartment together and adopting two cats and casual domesticity for two people who have never experienced affection until now. It’s teaming up to fuck with all your friends, being each others partners in chaos.
It’s relearning the feel of a gentle touch. It’s refusing to be like the people who hurt you, slowly putting the pieces of yourself back together step by shitty step. It’s healing both individually and together, and sometimes it’s slow and hard and messy, but most of all, it’s unwavering support and understanding. It’s yes and always and stay.
It’s two lost souls finding each other over and over again despite all odds and holding on with everything they have.

Wymack's Peptalks
An older Andrew talking with Wymack about life and whats the point in trying. Scene is from @stillmadaboutpetra's fic Does the Dog Die in the End. It's probably my favourite writing of older Andrew, charaterization is great and the writing is incredible. This mini comic is basically a thank you back to the writer, they did amazing. Definitely go have a read.
