Happy Birthday Neil Josten And His Little Fox Paw Doodles And His Fraying-at-the-hems Shirts And His

reyna and nico are so criminally underrated as a duo.

i just finished rereading BoO, and the significance their relationship has in that book as compared to the content (or lack thereof) of their relationship ive seen in media SHOCKED me.

i genuinely think reyna was a significant part of what helped him open up to people. with her powers, she could see all of his pain and struggles-- note, so much that the GODDESS OF MISERY said she couldn't do anything to trouble him more-- and stuck with him. she supported him, literally and figuratively, every time shadow travelling drained him, through all the bad and the ugly. she had nico hailed as a hero, by both camps that ostracized him, after the end of the battle with the monsters. she gave him--the boy who hates touch--a hug, and he had to fight himself not to break down in her arms.

even further than that, nico was there for her for all of the issues with the ghosts of her family-- something reyna has avoided and ran from ALL HER LIFE. with reyna winning the award for the most complex character with the least actual insight and focus on her character, that is MONUMENTAL

the fandom likes LEO AND CALYPSO's relationship but they underrate THEM?

Before ever having sex, they already knew each other in the most intimate away possible. They had seen each other naked of their defenses, both saw what hid on the other side of the protection walls the other had created, and fell in love entirely with what they found

They can read each other like someone reads a book

When Neil was about to be taken to his father, Andrew took one look at him and saw something was wrong. He got close and didnt need to say anything for Neil to understand that he was asking what was wrong. A lot of times they dont need any words, just one look, one touch and thats enough

They make my heart ache

I didn't notice Neil Josten's supposedly sexless narrative because he thinks too much like me and we were both fascinated by Andrew's every move. The most attractive thing a person can do is match your freak, and Neil (Identity Fraud) Josten found the one man who scratches that itch. Physical sex has NOTHING on the intricate mind games these two were playing the whole time.

as painful as it was to read, neil getting his ribs fractured was so powerful

he gets interviewed and very pointedly calls the ravens out for breaking jeans ribs. then lane, presumably in retaliation, breaks neil’s ribs. and jean watches his misplaced forever partner sustain that injury all while clutching his own ribs in memory and sympathy pain, panicked for neil

jean has never had someone truly suffer with/for him before. except neil.

pretentious moment incoming but why is everyone's idea of fashion so fucking boring these days. why the fuck did my manager just ask me "what's with the scarf". "what's with the scarf" fuck man do I need a reason to wear a faggy little scarf now? you could just say "nice scarf man". what's with your attitude

i saw someone say that cal and kilorn are like adhd + autism but which one is which???

Neil is an unreliable narrator TO YOU. I believe him.

Im finally watching Invincible's third season, and let me tell yall, Mark would have such an easier time if the people he wants to protect stopped getting into the fights as he is trying to protect them

LIKE, DUDE, IF MARK CANT FIGHT SOMEONE FROM VILTRUM, YOU ALSO CANT

And then Mark is made to have to protect himself(not particularly succeeding at that) and, now, another dumb fucker who had the bright idea to help and just became on the brink of death weight

Big examples of this are Atom Eve trying to help in the fight against the alternate dimensions invicibles and Oliver trying to tackle that dude from Viltrum right after

Like, guys, YOU ARE NOT HELPING

(Also, Im obviously not refering to Atom Eve in that last fight, she absolutely rocked that, girl rebuilt her body and even before, she actually helped a lot)

Literally about to crash out because it’s been THREE MONTHS and I just felt physical pain watching an andreil edit

Yo, if the freshman thought Neil was insufferable before the Ravens game, then they are so not prepared to deal with him when he’s sidelined, in pain, and dealing with the fact that his beloved boyfriend was almost murdered

The fuck, this is so good!!

Kandreil fanarts are gonna be death of me

Someone here is living his best life 👀
