#robin cross

[dayurno]

robin cross and kevin day parallels actually go so crazy. they both spent their formative years in a basement underground with exy-obsessed captors. they both saw exy as freedom. they both were isolated even within the foxes’ group of outcasts. they were both under andrew’s protection. it cost kevin jean to leave the nest and it cost robin another girl’s life to escape her kidnapper. robin carried her racquet with her to self-soothe and kevin restrings the net of his when he’s anxious. they’re even bird coded

#to those unfamiliar the word robin is also a kind of little bird 🕊️ #i dont ship them but i dont blame the people who do if im honest #BUT ITS JUST CRAZY TO MEEE #its so fucked that canonically kevin never gets to meet her #but i will say that the echoes of his presence are still there #she joins the foxes the year after kevins graduation and there andrew is taking robin to night practice #there he is coaching her because he knows exy is the tool she needs to believe in herself #there he is doing what kevin day told him only years late 🫠 #sorry they make me insane #robin when she’s the weird kandreil amalgamation no one asked for #will expand on this if i have more thoughts later but please talk to me about robin. thank you #txt #aftg #kevin day #robin cross #kevin #robin #fav #kevin&robin

AFTG Headcanons that have a little canon evidence but not a lot

Abby and Andrew are frenemies

Andrew has chronic migraines

Dan Wilds has ADHD

Kevin Day has autism

the twinyards and Neil have chronic joint pain

Andrew and Kevin constantly argue about Andrew's diet

Neil and Andrew take Kevin to history museums

^ Kevin can't drive and in fact knows nothing about cars (he memorized Andrew's license plate so he can find the Mas in parking lots)

Abby and Wymack give the foxes joint Christmas gifts

Andrew buys everyone gifts. he doesn't tell anyone it's from him, he just puts them somewhere he knows they'll be found

Alison and Andrew start to bond post-TKM and become besties when they're adults

None of the OG Foxes liked Robin at first; they thought she was intruding into their space since Andrew takes her everywhere

Hello hi :) you're amazing and I'm loving your FF fic, this kid is just so precious omg 😆 my brain has autocorrected his name to Felix and in true fandom style I'm shipping him with Robin - someone he has never met over the course of your story hehe

Keep up the amazing work!!! This has definitely made my week 🦊✨️🔪 (I searched but there apparently isn't a tums or pepto emoji and I think that's just rude)

LOL When I talk about him with my BFF (who is not a AFTG fan but if I have to know about his opinions on wrestling then he has to know about my silly OCs) I call him the fucking freshman every once in a while.

Never even considered FF getting a romantic partner but it would be kind of sweet if Andrew and Neil kind of set them up. (their two favorite, not each other, people)

The two of them discover the greatest social anxiety hack which is when someone you care about is anxious about doing something you get a +10 courage modifier. So Robin is staring at a plush fox in a crane game and FF walks past the crowd of middle schoolers to fail 6 times at getting it before succeeding in getting her a Frog plush instead. She adores it. The Starbucks barista gets his order wrong and Robin steps in and says "Actually he needs oat milk, not soy milk."

Alright aftg fans, I’ve just started to look into Robin’s backstory and I’ve read Nora’s extra content about her. But the few fanarts I’ve seen about her, her number is 10. I’m just really confused because I don’t think Neil would ever give up his number since it was such a big part of him getting to stay Neil. I would love it if anyone would be willing to explain if there’s any explanation.

Forever thinking about Neil being a runaway and Robin being a kidnapping victim, the antithesis that never was 🤕

#briefly touched on it in my fic but man #her having parallels with Neil AND Andrew... #this kills the man (me) #aftg #robin cross #mine

[detectivebambam]

opinions on Robin cross? Personally I can't make myself like her even though most of the fandom likes her😭😭

the difficult thing is that she's entirely EC.

she was kidnapped as a child (not sure what happened to her there) and in order to get out she led her kidnapper to another girl who was then killed. yikes. she likes Andrew because he's not gonna sit there and tell her that it's not her fault when it partly is. she becomes a Monster, Andrew gives her a key to the house in Colombia, etc.

if we got more info on her i think i would like her a lot more, but atp she's kind of just... there??? we know her backstory but pretty much nothing about her personality

people most likely like her because of fanfic tbh since there's not much of her to like or dislike in canon, so don't feel bad for not liking her!

hope that helps, if not, idk lol

Have we ever stopped to consider the impact Robin's arrival had on Aaron? Because like I'm almost 100% positive she had a great impact on Andrew (and on Neil as well) because it showed he was ready to open his tight circle to yet another external person, but what was Aaron's reaction to that?

Nora said in the EC the twins were making progress in (re?)building their relationship, albeit almost too slowly to notice. They are becoming proper brothers, through the highs and lows of it, and it's a long process for the two of them. And yet, here is Andrew handpicking someone to replace him after he graduates to everyone's surprise when she has, seemingly, nothing special (I'm paraphrasing Nora a little bit here so don't hate me, I personally love Robin). But it is his choice, imposed to Wymack by a short note and a bottle of whiskey, so no one asks. Perhaps Aaron doesn't notice at first, but the more time she spends at PSU, the closer she seems to Andrew. He encourages her to fight back against the teammates who torment her, he takes her to Columbia and then she moves in with the cousins in the dorm where Andrew gives her his own bed so they have enough room to fit her in.

I mean, don't tell me this wasn't a shock to him. He has been fighting for Andrew's attention almost this entire time and yet, here she waltzes in, and grabs it so easily. I'm sure this must has been a major setback in their relationship because he must have felt so betrayed considering Andrew almost seems to be considering her as some kind of little sister. Of course he probably doesn't know everything about her past, so it must hurt him so bad to see his brother get attached to someone else so easily when he is right there. I bet their therapy sessions are either quite animated or deadly silent.

Nora also says eventually all the cousins end up coaching her after hours so honestly I would absolutely not be surprised if the first time he has to do it he just lashes out because what the hell makes her so special? Eventually, perhaps Robin stops right there and explains to him her entire past, and perhaps Aaron suddenly understands why Andrew would find interest in helping her because sure their past is a bit different, but also it has many similarities and now Aaron can see it. He probably feels dumb as hell for letting his own emotions cloud his judgement. They are all Foxes, all of them have a messy past and it shouldn't have come as a surprise that Robin's would be a bad one too considering Andrew is so keen on offering her his protection. Once Robin is done talking, Aaron definitely finds himself at a loss for words. His anger is gone, now replaced by something else he cannot quite pinpoint so he just goes back to coaching Robin as if nothing happened. It's only after this day that he begins accepting her among his family as well, going so far as introducing her to Katelyn who immediately becomes her friend because Katelyn is awesome and we love her in this house, and perhaps he also has a little talk about this with Andrew, who knows?

#please do feel free to tell me your thoughts on this because my brain is buzzing #I was peacefully eating my lunch when this came to my mind so if it makes no sense please ignore me lol #I can just see Aaron being so pissed sad and betrayed because of all of this #and then he starts treating her as a little sister too? #maybe? #idk? #anyway I love Robin #all for the game #robin cross #aaron minyard #andrew minyard #aftg headcanon

 ok but have we considered

- before andrew leaves to play pro during neil’s last year of school, he conveniently forgets to pack a bunch of his old ‘MINYARD’ fox merch (definitely not intentionally at all) (he does not like the idea of neil wearing his clothes when he’s missing him shut ur mouth)

- and bc neil can read andrew he knows EXACTLY what he’s up to but he just smiles to himself about it bc if he says anything he’s SCREWED and tbh andrew’s fox sweaters are so much softer than his and they smell better and he’s going to miss andrew so fucking much—

- neil’s worn andrew’s team merch before but only around the dorm or the house in columbia (once, to practice, when he came back from a run half-dead on his feet in the morning and grabbed the first warm thing he laid his hands on in his dresser. the locker room was an insufferable place to be that day)

- neil is somewhat used to missing people now that he’s lived through all of the original foxes leaving, and as much as he knows andrew leaving is going to hurt worse he still doesn’t expect to use the sweaters much except for nights when everything gets too loud and he desperately needs something to ground him

- but nope

- he wears a MINYARD hoodie the day andrew leaves. andrew kisses him just that much harder for it.

- when the semester starts up again and Neil’s loneliness creeps in on him faster than expected, he starts wearing the hoodies and shirts almost everyday.

- especially when he’s on the court. he loves exy regardless of who he’s playing with but being on a court without both andrew and kevin leaves him feeling aching and unsteady. nostalgia is not easy to reconcile, is what Bee had told him when he’d described it to her. he’s never had anything in his life to be nostalgic for. the new feeling sits like water in his lungs.

- so he wears andrew’s team merch to practice, and to team meetings, and basically everywhere he can. for the first 2 weeks of the season, Josten merch is extinct.

- it gets to the point where the entirety of the freshman players just . think neil’s last name is Minyard .

- none of the rest of the team says anything bc they already Know about neil and andrew and even though none of them really understood andrew (besides robin) they understand that neil and andrew are two halves of a whole

- but the freshman are just like . o yea thats captain minyard bc neil is terrifying and no way in hell are they calling him by his first name. they’ve only ever referred to him exclusively as ‘Captain’ on the court.

- the day this gets exposed some dopey freshman backliner walks into the lounge for morning practice and just goes “Hey, has anyone seen Minyard?”

- the entire room (besides the freshmen) FREEZES

- wymack whips around from where he’s been talking to abby and just goes “the fuck?”

- and the backliner is just like uhhh……. our team captain?

- wymack: what, and i can’t stress this enough, the fuck?

- everyone is just standing in utter bewilderment. the freshmen are now confused bc why is everyone else confused????

- and then robin bursts out laughing

- for like 5 minutes straight my girl is clutching her stomach in TEARS

- when she finally comes up for air she just goes “HE MEANS NEIL. NEIL MINYARD”

- at this point Neil has walked into the room and is like wtf is taking everyone so long

- and lo and behold, he’s wearing a Minyard hoodie

- the rest of the veteran team are losing it now. Wymack is holding his head in his hands. neil is, as always, oblivious and annoyed.

- then robin goes, “sorry we’re late, Minyard”. Neil is confused as fuck but also . ouch. he hasn’t heard that name spoken in this locker room in so long it feels like both a punch to the gut and a breath of fresh air hearing it again

- the rest of the team veterans join in on it. “We’ll be right there, Minyard” .”What are our teams for scrimmages, Minyard?”

- at this point the freshman can tell they’re being made fun of. abby takes pity on them and explains that neil’s last name is Josten. Minyard is …. and when she comes up short on a word to describe andrew to neil, she turns to look at neil

- who just goes, “andrew’s my person. get your asses on the fucking court.”

- the team milks the shit out of it. the joke goes on for a good WEEK before the freshman have to be like OKAY WE GET IT . WE’RE DUMB .

- neil isn’t even phased . he will continue to be a sap and wear andrew’s hoodies . (and maybe a tiny little part inside of him that he’s too scared to think about likes being called Minyard).

- eventually the joke dies down. but every once in a while someone will throw in a “See ya, Minyard” or a “What’s up, Minyard?” when they see neil

- wymack thinks the whole thing is somewhat hilarious until neil submits a personal information update form at the end of the year. he nearly files for early retirement the entire time he’s putting in an order for “JOSTEN-MINYARD” team merchandise.
