Hi! I just found this page and was wondering if there are fics from Andrew's pov when he finds out what happened to Neil and what the "thank you, you were amazing" really meant.

i found some!

What died didn't stay dead. by freshtaylorswiftduck (T | 11,065 | 3/3)

Neil Josten is dead. Neil Josten was never even a real person. Thank you. You were amazing. And now Andrew Minyard was left with a pair of keys and nothing else.

choke by reaching_my_summit (T | 1,413 | 1/1)

"thank you. you were amazing." then he was gone. --- or, the riot from andrew's point of view.

You Were Amazing by shewhoisntnamed44 (G | 755 | 1/1)

"Thank you. You were amazing." These words rang in Andrew's head. They were like a bell, constantly reminding him of his own stupidity. His inability to guess the implication of these five words. How had he not seen it? Neil hadn't looked that sad in months.

you were amazing. by rosesau (Not Rated | 5,271 | 1/1)

“Thank you. You were amazing.” Why was there such finality in those words? Like he was thanking Andrew for more than the game? Andrew knows every breath Neil took was at least half a lie, concealed hints of the truth laced with every other word. So why did this sound like the most honest thing he’d ever said?

Amazing by reneewvlkers (M | 4,892 | 1/1)

Andrew can be patient. His knuckles are red, and with that familiar pain comes a wave of calm. He has no control over this situation and that’s nothing new. Neil Josten is a force of nature; utterly unpredictable and infuriating. But he knows one thing. Neil would not leave if he had a choice. He would come back to Exy, to the Foxes, to this godforsaken bus if he had to limp the whole way. And Andrew will be right here when he does.

okay so it was a fic on ao3 and it had neil running a tiktok about being andrew’s husband but his identity was secret from the viewers. i remember specifically neil doing the trend where you drop your towel around your partner. neil also had a habit of taking pics of andrew and ran andrews instagram account for him or something like that.

hey so i don't think i could find the one you're looking for specifically, but i did find this one?

You're like lighting in a bottle by blackjacksdonuts (T | 853 | 1/1)

"Until he got this one request. This one comment on a video of all the boys on the team singing their hearts out to Hopelessly Devoted To You by Olivia Newton John. The comment had hundreds of thousands of likes, and said, “You should do the Electric Love challenge with someone (neil),” with thousands of replies that all had some variation of “Yeah, do it with Neil."" Or: Andrew is Tik Tok famous and he's challenged to do the electric love challenge with Neil. It goes better than expected

Hey! I was wondering if u could help me find some female Neil AU's, i really like genderbends and cant find any :))

there's not many out there, but here's what i found

-rocky

She Kissed Me (All is Shattered) by Heartfulkings (T | Incomplete | 1/?)

The Exy world is full of vouyeristic fans who speculate about their favorite players nonstop. Unfortunately Drew and Nat, with their electric pasts and ambiguous relationship are perfect fodder for gossip sites and nosy reporters. When the paparazzi catch Kevin in public with the girls, Drew has to decide whether to play along with the public narrative, or to finally give into her possessive streak, making it known who Nat really belongs with.

kaleidoscope by decaflondonfog (M | 5,555 | 3/3)

Ever met a girl worth scratching the hood of your Maserati for? Andrew has.

dance for me by jemwrites (M | 16,028 | 4/4)

Neala gripped the barre. This would be her only chance to dance before her mother would hunt her down and killed her. You stupid, stupid girl, her father murmured in her ear. She squeezed her eyes shut. All his hard work at keeping her safe, down the drain. Signing with Palmetto Dance meant performances, competitions, publicity. It was signing herself up for a shortened life. Her pointe shoes complained with overuse as she rolled up onto them. It didn’t matter if she died. This was the only thing that made her feel alive.

hey!! i’m looking for a fic i read a while ago where the foxes explain “love languages” to neil and ask what andrew’s is, but neil says “andrew doesn’t love me” and andrew overhears and ends up trying to use all the love languages to prove neil wrong. i’ve been looking for ages and can’t find it, thanks so much for the help!!

i imagine you mean this one -maz

Translation Errors by SensationalSunburst (Not Rated | 3,128 | 1/1)

“Andrew doesn't love me,” Neil said simply, “So if he has a love language, I don't know it.” “Oh, honey.” Allison drawled, “You don't actually believe him when he says he hates you, do you?”

Hello. I appreciate your hard work. I am looking for a nine chapter persephone and hades au fic where Neil and his mother pretended not to be gods for a year and Andrew was the god of death. You have to kill a previous god to become the next one or inherit the title when the person retires. I can't find it anywhere. The fact that I am unable to remember the title is not helpful. Please help :D

i think it might be this? -maz

honey don't feed me (i will come back) by Talls (T | 31,725 | 11/11)

There’s a new god in the pantheon; Andrew remembers hearing about the scandal a while back, the newest Demeter having a child with the current Zeus and then going on the run, child in tow. They call him Persephone, the god of springtime and new life, the antithesis of Andrew's realm. It would be ludicrous of Persephone to ever interact with Andrew at all.

If only someone told Persephone that.

--

“Hades, right?” Persephone asks.

“Andrew,” Andrew responds, and Persephone hums.

“Nice to meet you, Andrew. I’m Neil,” Neil responds. Andrew cuts a look sideways to see Neil watching him, something assessing in his gaze. Andrew nods in response. “I have to say, you’re not nearly as scary as everyone says you are,” Neil continues.

“You barely know me. Give it time,” Andrew says, because the rumors don’t exaggerate. People fear him for good reason.

“I’d like to, I think,” Neil says. Andrew quirks an eyebrow at him. “Know you,” Neil clarifies. Before Andrew can think of a response, Neil’s head turns. “I have to go. Zeus called for me, and he’ll notice if I’m missing. Thanks for the cigarette.”

Hello, I was wondering if you could find the fic where it is National Boyfriend Day and Neil accidentally outs them by posting publicly instead of privately to Nicky. Thank you for the work that you guys do!

yep -maz

And They Were Roommates by sunnysidedown (T | 6,242 | 1/1)

In the beginning there were a select few people who knew what was going on between Andrew and Neil. To everyone else, well, they were roommates.

yeah ur thinking of this one -maz

Those That Broke Us by WriteThroughTheNight (T | 6,652 | 1/1)

"Neil doesn't talk about his mom and doesn't think about what she'd do to him if she saw him now. He has a family, he has Exy, and he has Andrew. He has more than enough, more than he ever could have dreamed of.

Neil doesn't talk about his mom until a warm fall day outside the locker room, waiting for the start of their game with his team and family. It's a place that she doesn't belong, where not even a memory of her belongs, but she wriggles her way in and takes root in his chest."

Or

Neil reveals, piece by piece, what life with his mom was like.

I'm looking for some where Neil and Andrew go back like in time or something like that, I don't know if I explain myself, could you help me find a lake like that?

yeah we actually have a time travel tag that has a lot! here's my favourite one though -maz

if you’re lost you can look (and you will find me) by paleromantic (T | Incomplete | 15/?)

Neil Josten jerked awake, his cigarette falling from his fingers as he did. The frigid air bit at his arms, his neck, his face, but he didn’t notice, too busy looking around.

“What the fuck.”

or

Neil and Andrew wake up back in Millport, and get the chance to start over.

Do y’all know of any fics where Neil runs into people from when he was on the run? Like someone he was friends with in high school or something like that? Thank you!

caelisis said: are there any fics where neil or someone meets someone that knew him as one of his other identities? or maybe had just seen him before? lmao i felt like i’ve read a fic like this before but maybe it was just on tumblr

Anonymous said: Hi! I was wondering if there is a fic in which someone recognizes Neil from when he was on the run with one of his other identities?

there’s this one-maz

the road trip by palmettofoxden (Not Rated | 3,738 | 1/1)

Andrew lets Neil take him on that road trip Neil wanted but he brings the rest of the monsters with them too. Aaron is reluctant to spend this much time crammed in the middle of the backseat of the car, tagging along on Andrew and Neil’s romantic get away.

Hi! I read a fic one time where Andrew and Neil get in a fight and Neil goes out wearing Andrew’s sweatshirt and gets jumped by some of his father’s men (I think???) because they think he’s Andrew. Any idea of which one that would be? Thank you!

mm that would be this -maz

the key to fighting. by andreil (M | 6,151 | 1/1)

It's rare for them to fight, but when they truly do, it's destructive.

Hello team! Thank you for everything you do I have found so many wonderful fics due to your talents!

With the shadow and bones release I was reminded of a fic I read that was an aftg x six of crows crossover and I just cant seem to track it down so I am hoping you can help pretty please?

It's the aftg characters set in the six of crows plot I believe Andrew is Kaz and Neil is Inej but my memory could be faulty on that one. Kevin is a hostage the team have to break out of his imprisonment in an impossible location and the whole fic is just phenomenal.

I appreciate any help you can offer and thanks again for everything you do!!!

Nemes

i would assume you’re thinking of this one -maz

No Mourners, No Funerals by gluupor (M | 145,718 | 54/54)

In Ketterdam’s pleasure district you can find anyone. A wayward son trying to escape his past. A pampered noblewoman who chose a different life. A recovering addict who can’t turn down a bet. A stranded pirate in need of a boat. A deserter who is looking for a place to belong. A Grisha assassin who wants to be a better person. A convict looking to regain her life. A runaway who has become a killer. A survivor who has become something worse.

These fractured isolationists must cooperate and trust each other to achieve their goals. An impossible heist with a big payout. A revenge scheme years in the making. A high stakes con that could start a war if it goes wrong. They probably deserve better, but if they got what they deserved then they wouldn’t be Foxes.

A Six of Crows AU where the Foxes are a gang, Neil’s good at disappearing, and Andrew Minyard is the Bastard of the Barrel.

There’s this one fic where Neil and Andrew r neighbors and Neil’s cat keeps coming into Andrews balcony or smth and it shows Andrews search history in the fic. Also there was one scene where where Neil had friends over and Andrew thought Allison and him were dating, thank you !!

i think? -maz

we might be hollow (but we're brave) by stttmsbwa (M | 40,681 | 4/4)

Andrew is looking to live his life in peaceful nothingness, but his new neighbor's cat won't stop sneaking onto his balcony. As much as he tries to not make it into something, Andrew finds himself drawn to the mysterious and tempting man next door.

Neil is just trying to find a reason to not leave Palmetto after everyone else has moved on. But he never thought he would want to run toward something in favor of running away.

(In a slightly different world, two people find themselves meeting in a softer setting and in just as much need of each other. A story about dealing with pasts, sharing secrets and a cat who is an asshole yet manages to charm everyone around it.)

Blue Eyes, Pipe Dreams by Shklance_Beef_Sandwich ( M | 18,250 | 2/2)

Andrew doesn’t do crushes, never has, never will. What he does is the odd hookup when he’s feeling pent-up, preferably in a nightclub bathroom with as much anonymity as he can get.

So why is he so hung up on those blue eyes and that auburn hair he’s only been able to see from a distance? Why is he feeling almost desperate to be able to talk to this figure skating mystery man?

A Minyard That Makes Shitty Robots by orphan_account (T | 11,231 | 2/2)

Andrew should never listen to Bee's advice. Or maybe he should always listen to Bee's advice.

Anyway. At her prompting, he makes a YouTube channel to direct his manic energy into. It doesn't help that he only features his shitty, shitty, robots.

hi there! are they’re any anastasia!au fics?

a couple yeah -maz

it's fate that brought us here by ajmnyrd (T | Incomplete | 5/?)

Neil Doe has a target painted on his back. Andrew can't figure out who's going to take the bullet.

With his luck, probably both of them.

(In which there are mysteries of statistical probability, an interesting night club, old ghosts, perhaps a romance, and a lot of money.)

December by ilgaksu (T | 3,710 | 1/1)

The secret to the Midas touch is this: you just have to be willing to get your hands dirty.

In which Neil Josten is an abandoned boy in Russia with amnesia, the Minyard twins are missing persons investigators, and the Butcher of Baltimore is looking to get his heir back (Anastasia Fusion AU, but knowledge of the film isn't required).
