I’m honestly trying to figure out when Andrew would smile or laugh without any sort of malice in it. ((his medicated glee doesn’t count, as that good humor was all induced)) It feels so…… out of character? For the most part Andrew’s emotions are a flat line—it’s just how he is, for better or worse, consequence of his upbringing & his mental state. But if it ever happened it’d have to be with Neil only; there’s no way Andrew would relax that much in front of anyone else.

It was a long time coming & a little bit stressful, considering one had never fucked anyone by choice and the other was a virgin, but they figured it out.

I think Andrew would be a difficult person to be friends with but one you’d fight to keep once you got inside that circle. He’s a bit of an asshole and a bit misogynistic, though Bee & Renee are working on that last bit. But Andrew’s definitely my second favorite character of the Foxes despite (because of?) his flaws. I’m glad you liked him! :)

There are a couple scattered facts about him over here, though I’m a little behind on updating it with the most recent questions. Whoops.

Thank you for taking the time to read the books! I’m really glad you enjoyed them. We’re done with the Foxes’ books, so I’ve sort-of moved on to other projects.

Uhh not sure what exactly to write, to be honest! We’ve dabbled a little bit in their future lives as far as their future teams & their domestic lives, etc, but beyond that.. Was there something in particular you were curious about?

I think I saw this answered on someone else’s dash while I was at work, so I’m probably answering this twice, but just in case: the twins have hazel eyes, and Neil’s eyes are blue. Sorry for any confusion :)

Oh, Proust.

Did he–

Did he what?

Did he tape every session and send copies to Riko in case Riko needed extra ammunition down the line?

Did he use drugs on Andrew to ensure his own relative safety, to skew Andrew’s take on things should any of this come back to him, to get Andrew so off balance and/or out of his head that he could more easily get the reactions and responses he wanted?

Did he have access to everything Riko’s associates could dig up on Andrew’s past, all of the rumors about his foster families, all of the secrets they were able to buy or drug out of those failures of parents, all of the transcriptions from Riko’s conversations with Drake?

Did he sign off on restraints for Andrew during the worst part of Andrew’s rehab, claiming Andrew was a danger to himself and everyone around him while he was going through withdrawal? Did he know to go into that room and put his hands on Andrew when Andrew couldn’t fight back, couldn’t move except to pull those bindings tighter?

Did he know about the scars on Andrew’s wrists, and did he know just how hard to bite them so they would bruise? Did he know how to mark them and ruin them, to taint a symbol of survival and choice with the new memories Andrew would always carry of him?

Did he know that Jesse liked to choke Andrew during sex so Andrew couldn’t wake anyone else up? Did he know Samuel used to whisper you fucking like this, you stupid fucking whore I know you wanted this? Did he know Steven made him say Please?

Did he know Andrew was ticklish? Did he know what Drake did with that knowledge and how he used Andrew’s own body against him? Did he reenact it whenever Andrew was being difficult and uncooperative?

Did he learn what Andrew looks like on the verge of a panic attack and the ferocity Andrew fights with when he’s clawing back from that dangerous edge? Did he see the look in Andrew’s eyes when the knife went a little too deep, connecting one psychological scar to another and blurring the lines between them?

Did he violate Andrew? Physically, emotionally, psychologically?

Did he what?

Whichever question you meant to ask, the answer is yes.
