    Summary

    Neil has a twin brother; his other half, his partner in crime. They share everything, even down to the same false identity. They've never had any secrets between them, but enrolling at Palmetto and joining the Foxes may change that.

    Summary

    Andrew, already, could see a lot of his younger self in Olwen. She had hair so blond it was almost white, and an almost entirely blank look on her face. Her eyes were brown, too, though a much, much darker brown than Andrew and Aaron’s. Maybe Olwen got them from her mother. Andrew’s eyes, in the sunlight, sometimes looked more gold than brown, according to Neil’s disgustingly flattering words. Olwen’s were duller and darker, like maybe, at one point, they could have been the same as Andrew’s, but had been stained by the rottenness of humankind.

    -

    After practice one day, Nicky gets a call from a social worker, asking him if he is available to take in one more Minyard—a seven-year-old girl named Olwen, and Andrew and Aaron's half-sister. They take her in without hesitation. It doesn't take long for Andrew to realize he understands Olwen all too much, and Aaron is quickly terrified that he doesn't understand her enough.

    Summary

    He felt like he was a child all over again when he was removed from Evermore. Begging and whining and sobbing to go back. He didn't want to leave his partner. He had nowhere else to go. Asking for something was unlike him, considering the Moriyamas had shown him he never had the right, but he couldn't help it.

    Elías Nuñez expected to die that night. He had not expected to find consciousness in South Carolina.

    But Jean told Elias he didn't have a place with the Ravens anymore, so he didn't. Jean sent him to become a Fox, so he would. It was fine.

    Everything was always fine.

    Or maybe it wasn't. Maybe it just would be, over time. Maybe Elias was so used to living underground in the darkness that he'd forgotten what the light could look like. Maybe it took all of a pathetic Exy team to make him realize he deserved to watch the sun rise too. And maybe a repressed blond twin needed to realize the same.

    Summary

    Neil Jostens first year as vice captain begins with a very interesting freshman class. Filled with hypocrites, bigots, and complex personalities trying to find a place in the world, he is once again put in the position of trying to bring the team together while managing consistent harassment and the lurking yakuza.

    Jack Iverson, an incoming freshmen at Palmetto State, is a person who embodies self loathing. He is a conflicted teenager grappling with psychological trauma and internalized hatred, someone that would do anything to hide who they really were. He makes a difficult decision to leave behind the comforting yet suffocating life he led in a small town in Mexico, abandoning his "family" and biggest secrets in hopes of outrunning himself. When he comes face to face with the disorienting differences in American morality compared to conservative/cultural Mexican values, he is forced to not only confront who he is, but the consequences of self destructive behavior.
    (OC CENTERED)

    A written out story of my maladaptive take on the new freshmen. This is a character world that has been mentally developed for almost 4 years so apologies if it has plot holes, I haven't thought about his beginning in years.

    Summary

    It was bizarre how much his relationships improved with distance, but they say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Still, he didn't feel them missing like an amputated limb until recently. Maybe it was Matt and Dan's impending retirement, as they had started asking him some uncomfortably pointed questions about children and pregnancy. Maybe it was Nicky's brand new German citizenship, tying him forever outside the country.

    Or maybe it was the fact that Kevin Day had been traded to Chicago almost a year ago and he and Aaron still hadn't done more than one stilted coffee meet up three months after he moved.

    ******

    Aaron tries to keep his head above water, which becomes much harder once Kevin walks back into his life asking to be friends on purpose.
