I Think One Of My Favorite Things About Aftg Is How It So Subtly Shows Such A Deep Level Of Affection

andrew: happy birthday kevin [hands gift to neil]

one of the funniest things neil ever did was talk katelyn into talking aaron into talking andrew into having joint therapy sessions like damn he was plotting

headcanon that kevin starts to pick up on a bit of german since he's around the monsters so much and he absolutely hates that he's starting to understand andreil's insane brand of flirting when they think nobody who could understand it is around

can't escape him

i need aftg as a mockumentary more than anything. imagine the confessionals after neil says or does anything. the amount times andrew would just look directly at the camera.

the way any combination between neil, andrew, jean and kevin works is so funny you can pair any of them or all of them it just works

one thing that will always fuck me up is the thought of neil and jean being ravens together. of the brief time neil experiences in the nest, where the two universes intersect, neil the raven and neil the runaway, and understands what his life would've been if his mother hadn't ran away with him but also understands what jean had been living through all this time. jean being angry at neil for getting caught but also mitigating that anger by daring to hope, to wonder what if he stays? what if jean finally has his permanent partner? and it's a foolish hope of course because neil doesn't stay, but he makes sure that renee gets jean's number and when jean needs her the most she shows up, one single girl against the mafia, and takes him out of the nest. and neil makes a deal for him so jean can keep on living, he makes sure, in his blunt way because neil is not a soft person, that jean fully understands that riko is dead, that neil saw him being killed with his own eyes. and he shows up at jean's new house and acts like a little shit with the fbi when he notices jean feels off and needs some time to recover. he kills his abuser. he tells jean he is worth saving. they are not friends, but they are still connected in a way. neil isn't jean's partner in suffering, but he's there to try to make that suffering more bearable.

they should invent an anime/manga that doesn't make you want to blow yourself up

thinking about wymack just looking at his foxes one day and realizing that they are doing okay, they are doing so much better than they were the moment he took them in. they're learning to heal, they're learning to accept love and care and affection and to give it back. they are fighting for each other instead of against each other. they're good people and they deserve good lives, and if he had even the smallest role in that, he's happy. he did good by them.

some people thought this was about neil gaiman? im crying what does he get up to

love how neil is always up to something. a little scheme. a little plan. maybe giving a crazy statement in front of a camera. he'll probably give it in writing too if you ask him. he survived so much what's a little public beef going to do to him? perhaps even committing some murder. fixing some relationships. teaching some people that they're worth saving. antagonizing some fbi agents. iconic
