the most unfortunate thing about Neil josten is he likely just. fucking sits there on a plane.

no blanket, no pillow. he doesn't nap, he doesn't carry books because they don't fit in his little bad, he doesn't play on his phone or computer

he just sits and stares ominously at the back of the seat in front of him. the whole time.

my favorite part of aftg is how the mafia is just sorta there for the foxes who arent Neil and kevin (and kinda twins + Nicky but only bcs they're so closely related to kevneil)

like truly take Dan into account???

girl just wanted to play exy, she FINALLY got out of a bad situation, was allowed to play AND be captain. shes gotten shit for it but shes proven herself and now shes happy for the first time in her life

and then BAM the fucking MAFIA is after not one but TWO of her teammates??? and she just? has? to? deal?

insane I love it thank you Nora

do you think neil ever looks in the mirror and wonders when andrew will get sick of him?

part of their original deal was he needed to stay interesting. what if once all of Baltimore is over and they've won and riko is dead and suddenly he and Andrew are in a regular routine, he starts wondering if Andrew is getting bored?

it's summer and all they do is hang out at abbys. sometimes he goes for a run or Andrew gets ice cream or neil calls jean. sometimes Kevin forces him to go practice with him

but they have a routine. they're stuck in a routine. and it feels good for neil but what if Andrew is getting bored?

maybe unpopular opinion? please don't burn me at the stake

I don't think a book from the og series in andrew---or anyones---pov would be as good. a chapter or two maybe, but I don't want it totally rewritten. I see a loooot of people bitching about it and I just don't get it

tsc is so good because it shows how much nora has grown as a writer. the creative freedom she has in tsc with all the new characters shows how much growth she's gone through and how much her writing has improved. the plot is better put together, the characters are more fleshed out, etc. I still love the og series and the Foxes and they're extremely dear to me.

but if she went back and rewrote tfc from andrews pov, I don't think it'd be as good. nora wouldn't have as much creativity, she'd have to stick to the original plot and behaviours. its not fair to want that from her when it has been 10+ years. she deserves to show off how much growth she's gone through.

jean deserves a story, and nora deserves not to be confined to just one creative outlet. let her write other books in the same universe. let her explore her universe and her characters. we are LUCKY to be able to read these books. this is a gift from author to reader, so stop treating her like she killed your goddamned dog when she chose to write about jean instead of Andrew.
