    Summary

    Neil was a travel firefighter. At times, when he told people his job title, they would simply tilt their heads to the side and ask “Uh… Like a traveling nurse?”

    Or

    “Dude, you’re like a vigilante with a water hose.”

    Both of which, were incorrect.

    Neil joins a new fire station and meets hot paramedic Andrew Minyard.

    Summary

    Nicky wasn’t a violent man, not in the slightest - but if he had known what kind of monster he would bring into their lives, he undoubtedly would have killed Drake Spear the moment he met him. But Nicky didn’t know. But god - how he wished he had known. How he wished it had been him who had to live with the consequences.

    What would have happened if Drake managed to get to Andrew again in a different way? Secrets can only be upheld for so long and even Andrew has a breaking point.

    Summary

    Neil knew a lot about the world. He knew about the darkness in it and he knew what the universe was capable of. But turning thirty year old virgins into mind readers?

    It seemed pretty far-fetched to him.

    Yet it was factual. A blunt truth. Because here he was, a thirty year old virgin who would read minds when he touched people.

    Or

    Neil Jostens perfectly mundane life is flipped upside down when he gains the powers to read minds, and discovers that his co worker, Andrew Minyards, mind held many secrets.

    One of them being that he was apparently… attracted to him?

    Summary

    When Neil was fourteen, his father caught up to them in Seattle and he got separated from Mary. Unfortunately, neither of them escaped unscathed, but they did escape despite all the odds. They manage to reunite at one of their emergency rendezvous and take off running.

    That's where their luck ran out though because they only made it to California before Mary's injuries finally bested her. In the end, his mother couldn't go on but she made Neil promise to keep running because one of them had to make it. With no other choice, Neil burned her body, buried her ashes on the beach, and did what he had promised.

    Then, impossibly, things went from bad to worse — After a month of just sort of drifting in his grief, Neil found out he was pregnant.

    Summary

    Neil liked to think that in life we followed certain rules.

    Birth and death.

    Without a start there couldn't be an end, and vice versa.
    Those two couldn't exist without one another.

    So how will Neil cope if he is put in a situation where these two does not follow the rules of death.

    Or: Neil being stuck in a time loop…reliving the nightmarish Baltimore weekend over and over…and over again…

    Summary

    Andrew was no foul, though he may be an hopeless idiot who falls in love with obliviousness.

    Neil, oh Neil takes the Cake for stupidity the first stupidity was him not understanding how attractive he was and how he effectively used it as a weapon without knowing it, or maybe he did know and he did it all on purpose fainting obliviousness, whichever it was Andrew doesn't mind falling into his trap.

    Or dancer au talk about a new dance instructor/partner where addictions become obsessions Andrew is losing his mind. Of course the mafia has to poke their head where it doesn't belong. It wouldn't be AFTG without drama would it?

    Switches between Andrew & Neil's pov.

    Summary

    “I have baggage.”

    “All my foxes have baggage. You won’t be the first.” Wymack said.

    Neil doubted any fox in all Wymack’s years has carried the same weight as Neil when it came to baggage.

    “That's not what I mean.”

    “Go on. Let’s hear it then.”

    The coach waited patiently for him to continue. It should have been comforting but Neil was far more scared than ever.

    “I have a son. His name’s Milo.”

    OR what if Neil had a kid when he was on the run?

    Self-indulgent fic I didn't expect anyone to care about but my sister pushed me to write it

    Summary

    Leaving meant that we would get a chance to live. But if we are being honest we have not really been living. We would have to get new names, a new place and never look back. We are both so tired of running even if it means living. We both know that we will not make it much longer on our own. We are better together but we are still not strong enough to survive much longer with the way we are going.

    (Or, what would happen if The Foxes had two sets of twins instead of one?)

    Summary

    The director‘s office is a big room at the end of a long hallway. In the three months he‘s been here Nicky has seen the inside only twice. Once when his father first brought him here - he sat on an uncomfortable chair while Luther signed permission form after permission form without even reading what he is allowing them to do to his son. The second time was three weeks ago, right before he got put into solitary confiment - it wasn‘t a pleasant meeting.

    This time he doesn‘t even make it this far because there is a man waiting just outside the door at the end of the hallway. Nicky‘s heart stutters in his chest when he recognises his cousin. His mouth opens around a soundless word - Aaron‘s name almost feels unfamiliar on his tongue.

    Or

    Nicky is younger, his parents still suck and Aaron and Andrew make sure he has a home

    Summary

    Andrew rolled over onto his side, watching Neil across the pillow from him. Watching Neil tear open old wounds to write Midnights had been painful. Today had been painful reliving those memories with him. Hearing the pain and frustration in Neil’s voice as he sang through The Story of Us had been near excruciating.

     

    There was a part of Andrew that knew he couldn’t go back in time. He couldn’t go back and change how he acted as a frustrated and angry teen. But, a small part of him still ached that he had caused Neil such pain.

    ---

    Andrew ruminates on the past and the present.

    Summary

    Of course his new neighbor happened to be the same new co-worker that had spilt scalding coffee all over the front of his pants and of course his new neighbor was freakishly attractive.

    Maybe if Andrew was lucky, he would smother himself in his sleep tonight with his various blankets and pillows and not have to wake up the next morning.

    Or

    Andrew, a teacher at Palmetto high school in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, meets the new track coach of their school.

    It doesn't go well.

    Neil's back in Palmetto with the Foxes' triumph over the Raven's, time to see how much damage has been done.

    ~

    “Yes.”

    He didn’t remember the car ride back. Were they back? He was in a car. Yes.

    He remembered bits. Things scattered, Remembered-

    Eighty percent.

    A bullet.

    Blood splatter and Riko’s expression. Watched until eyes fogged over with death. Did he watch that long? Must have. His mother used to say-

    He blinked.

    Summary

    An AU where Mary never got Nathaniel out. Instead, he became too invaluable of an asset to be killed off or 'gifted' to Tetsuji. Instead, he's raised with Ichirou and Jean as a part of Ichirou's inner circle.

    He'd always had a knack for languages and lying and all the 'messy stuff' came easily enough when your father is called the Butcher of Baltimore. So Nathaniel became the Wraith. He was untraceable, unknowable, infalliable; a criminal fairytale.

    When Kevin Day leaves the Nest, there's no better person to send.

    ~

    "Who the hell are you?" Andrew demanded.

    He wasn't anyone, not really; not anymore. He hadn't really been anyone in years now. There'd been a time. Once. But there were entire lifetimes between who he could have been and what he'd become. He could taste it sometimes; blackberries and sand stinging his tongue like the iron branded on his shoulder.

    It was easier to pretend he'd never been anyone at all.

    "I'm nothing," he answered. The ghost of a smile pulled at his lips; sharp and cruel. "A wraith." The Wraith, he didn't say, but the shadows ran through Andrew's eyes and he wondered if Andrew had heard it anyways.

    Summary

    “Have you heard of his twin?”

    “He must be, like, violent or something.”

    “I heard he came from the foster system and didn’t even know Aaron was his brother until recently.”

    “He’s a psychopath, I'm sure of it. I saw him looking at the frog dissection for an uncomfortable amount of time, I think he wanted to eat it.”

    “Or smear its blood across his face like warpaint.”

    “Where does he keep his daemon? No one even knows what it is and they haven’t seen it either.”

    Andrew is new to Palmetto Highschool and Neil is curious to see if the rumors hold up.
