Your AFTG OC?

Your take on a new AFTG book (focused on an existing character)

Canon divergence time! What would your fresh take on an aftg character be (i.e Raven Neil, Vixen Allison?)

so the new aftg oc is Neil's younger sibling they were about 2 years old when Mary took neil and them on the run (I say about 2 because neil was 10 when he and his mom went on the run in 98 and the unnamed oc (finding names is so fucking hard) was born somewhere between 96 and 97 so yeah, so as of the start of tfc the oc would be about 9-10 and then in tkm would be about 10-11 if that makes sense to people (I'm legit reading on timelines so that this makes sense from a fic point of view and like Mary died at 38 putting neil at 17 and the oc at like 8-9 depending on what month I have this kid born, I do have a drawing already done using a base/reference from mellon_soup so I will post that after I find a name for this kid, if you lot wanna give name recs you can

PREACH BAMBAM

like I can get how the line can get taken out of context but like it was the 2000s from what I remember from cousins I've had tell me it wasn't all that great for lgbtq+ people, plus what Kevin said does make sense from the state of it being a sport team and a college 1 thingy at that as well as the fact that they'd be in the public eye and under scrutiny for things like ik we don't fully know how the exy fans reacted to Neil going for riko but like we can just tell that from what the raven fans did kost likely no one liked him.

and like "it's easier to remain heterosexual" the whole wording of that is like to me he doesn't care what you do with other people about your personal relationships however going I the public eye it would be easy to play off being straight like going with paparazzi today they are invasive with what they do to people in the public eye like imagine the backlash from homophobic people if they find out one of their favourite footballers/soccer players are gay it wouldn't go down well, so Kevin was being very caring on suggesting it he wasn't demanding that neil remain straight Kevin couldn't really care less about Neil's swing situation he wasn't really raised to care relationships anyway If I remember correctly so yeah.

Kevin was being a good teammate and giving a suggestion that he believes/believed (irk if it changed) would help neil in the long run plus he says this like before finding out who neil is (if I recall correctly) so he was saying it while also having hopes that neil would go pro

biggest pet peeve rn is people taking "it's easier to remain heterosexual" entirely out of context. no, Kevin was not on his high horse about the fact that he's straight. no, he was not telling Neil that being gay is wrong. i am holding you so gently by the shoulders.

"you know better than anyone how prejudiced people can be" (to nicky) literally said not 2 seconds after the first line

he's just looking out for him cuz he knows that his career is gonna be that much harder if he dates a man like i don't-

guys help me plz so I know we gave casey hart as a kid oc for aftg however do I make a new one cuz I have an idea and like this oc may have health issues (I'm not fully sure) so do I have this oc be like present at the start or pop up because of some underlying factor I don't much about said oc yet but I do have a desgin for them planned out in my head (I'm a bitch with to much creativity and I make way to many ocs for just about everything this is like a normal thing I fear)

IVE FINSISHED THE KINGS MAN GIYS OMG THAT WAS SO FUCKING LONG BUT LIKE JESUS CHRIST I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH I ALMOST FORGOT HOW MUCH, Jeremy there like 😊 when handing over the list of his teams players for the match like omg you go boy you radiating sunshine engery, rikos death the way ichiro cradles rikos cheek like the thoughts that would have been going through his head (he's a bad person don't get me wrong he's awful but like to only meet his brother when his brother wants to kill him is somthing)

'now he couldn't help but smile and pull andrew in, this was everything he wanted, everything he needed and Neil was never letting go.' LIKE OMG WAY TO FUCKING END THE BOOK, I'm never gonna shut up eved again I was like simmering in this series for years never again I'm gonna be so annoying that I will not apologise for it because woooo fun

does anyone else suffer from the aftg effect? i remembers the moment i finished tkm and I was looking into the air thinking "nothing its ever gonna top these books", like, yeah, after aftg I read more books, but i wasnt able to connect as hard as i connected with the Foxes; and it never matters how long i stay away from the books bc im busy with my life, every single time i go back to them without fail, to the way too sweet andreil fanfics, to the beautiful fanarts, to this cursed fandom that always likes to suffer for some reason, they always drag me back. it never fails to impress me how much these silly little books mean so much for me and for many people too, and thats the aftg effect, the feeling of knowing ur fucked bc theres no way ur going to get over the books in this lifetime or the next one, once u start liking the characters, theres no way back.

ALRIGHT PEOPLE WE ON BALITMORE THE PHONE CALL WITH LOLA LIKE BTICH FUCK OFF LEAVE HIM ALONE, JACKSON AKD ROMERO (I think that's how it spelt idc anyway I hate that guy) just being in security guard getups like "yeah this will work defo", Neil looking at his foxes is just my heart is shattering I can't do this rn, him debting between speaking German to Andrew but then knowing that the fuckeds would react violently

"thank you" he finally said, he couldn’t say he meant thanks for all of it. the keys, the trust,the honesty and the kisses. hopefully Andrew would figure it out eventually "you were amazing." like him not being able to fully say what he meant, it fucking sucks like my heart is fucking wreacked. the riot part also fucking sucks.

neil being dragged away by the bitches I hate those three they can all die, fuck my heart the way it just drops lola asking him questions and him figuring out that it was Nathan's circle with the birthday surprise, lola explaining what she's gonna do to him like why, LEAVE HIM ALONE (like ik that neil gets out but like still it hurts) him being tortured also fucking hurts, lola just asking her brother for the dashboard lighter, and then being burned him calling ber sick is just like neil I love you but like bro you gonna get tortured maybe don't try and rail them up (I try to think I'd do what neil does but I probably wouldn't)

the part where lola keeps wanting to know where mary is and nwil just repeating "she's dead" and then lola just asking about his teammates and then him not wanting to tell her shit is just so brave of him.

"he traced the outline of a key into his bloody burnt palm with a shaky finger closed his eyes and wished neil josten goodbye" the way he switches to nathaniel because nathaniel belonged to his father, Neil belongs to the foxes and abram belonged to Mary and now belongs to Andrew is just like such dramatic irony that it hurts, nathaniel just going to wash his hands so they don't get infected is just such a moment like he was on his death bed or basement or floor.

I'm sorry but Nathan just coming down without wearing shows LIKE SIR YOUR BASEMENT IS PROBABLY INFECTED WITH SO MUCH BACTERIA WHY GO DOWN BAREFOOT JUST WHY. Patrick walking down behind the man like dud why let the seriel killed wear no shows or socks just why. can I say Nathan's accent is so funny like ik we meet him when he's going to kill nathaniel but like it's a funny accent.

so I'm on the final book woooo we love this honestly doing lore stuff for ocs or just scrolling on my phone while listening to the audio books is so much more easier than picking up the fucking kindle to complete my reread when im already down two of the books anyway, the character development the relationships is just so lovely to hear again

"I warned not to put a leash on me"

"I didn't" neil said "you put that leash on yourself when you told me to stay no matter what, don't be mad at me just because I was smart enough to pick up the other end of it"

hell yeah one of the best interactions in my opinion I'm looking so forward to baltimore I can't wait for it man "I wanna see you lose control." oof that was so great the back and forth those to have is just amazing.

alright its his birthday woooo locker room mess woop woop, let's go (low-key I can do the happy 19th birthday junior in December because I'm 19 then) BLOOD SPLATTER (poor boy he doesn't deserve this) God damn that sucks him going through a slight panic is just so great like it sucks.

"HAAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY JUNIOR!" LETS FUCKING GO HECK YEAH well oh well way to go shut down your panic all you want "carrie stunt double" only one of matts best lines in this books love you for that dude

guys I've finished the raven king and uhh Jesus fucking christ that shit was horror, wymack getting concerned at Neil's voice on the phone is just such a dad thing, the tattoo nooo those bitches him running for the kitchen for a knife.

"help me" he said through gritted teeth

"let me" wymack shot back

just way fo go fucking break me more afer the thanksgiving part (I completely forgot the timestamp for the audio book for when that happens, I should have probably read along with my kindle books but oh well) but like what the fuck I forgot that it was all detailed man like not fully but like gosh the audio books hit diffrent than reading them for me. Neil telling wyamck that he's still a fox and that he hadn't signed the raven contract is just UGHHHH SOBS

still no more casey info sorry to casey hart fans you don't get any new info for the moment as im still trying to fully figure out everything and still finish his character desgin sheet/art thing

so I'm on chapter 8 of trk now ummm I don't wanna relisten to thanksgiving and that's in like 3 chapters I'm not ready for that but I gotta anyway If I can read it in fanfics I can relisten to it not that hard of a thing to do, loved jeans sass at the banquet like just perfect I love that French man he's funny, riko can go get fucked someone get me tissues and like hugs for when chapter 11 starts I'm fucking horrorifed for it, raven match be happening welp

no new casey lore for the moment while probably give some later on but oh well

guys I finished the first book and I forgot half the one liners "rat bastard" is fucking amazing I'm gonna use that so much, the interview like oh my fucking god like fuck yeah read his ass neil you go boy, also god damn the ending I like/liked seth but god damn the reactions, Kevin's reaction is just perfect like he has priorities, Neil's reaction is just as great, Andrew just knowing it's riko's fault is fucking perfect like yes dude be your smart self, THE FUCKING KEY PART OMG EEHHH, I have this on 2x speed just cuz I can't handle the voices there to funny

also update on casey's character sheet type thing it's going good currently doing like a piece of casey and his older cousin it's kinda like an au as to what the au is about idk myself but feel free to send asks about casey and his lore that I will get fully written out but not post all of it just cuz he a mystery child.

insert me playing the audio books instead of actually getting the kindle I have all the books on to read them because I cba to on 2x speed anyways.

WELCOME TO CASEY HART INFO TIME!!! WOOO!

so caseys story happens like after tkm probably like late 2007 early 2008, he is about 9-11 years old so he was roughly born in 97-98 due to him being born in mid november, uhhh timeline shit but oh well.

casey was an only kid but he did have an older cousin, casey's home life wasn't the best (cuz yk fox and all) uhhh other stuff ummm, right why casey ran intl the foxes and what state was he in to the point it worried probably a few of them, the state our little casey was in was bad, he had bruises,blood stains this is because of something I am withholding cuz I'm a bitch and I don't give away all my secrets.

that's it for the small info for now

you guys wanna know a ship I need to see jean x neil x Jeremy but neil and Jeremy are like queer platonic can also include andrew with them as well or not but I need to see this just cuz I wanna see it like its a need and want, especially if it's a raven neil au so like jean and neil end up dating and the jean gets feelings for Jeremy still like I need to experience a fic of this, like just imagine the dynamic I'd die for that dynamic

it's aftg I'm gonna either be shot or stabbed or drugged, so yeah I'd die I'd pass riko off too much that he'd kill me off quickly

*you can change the desicions you make, gowever you do not retain the knowledge of it that you have

reblog for larger sample size!!

me with all my wips when I only have a prologue written for we'll be fine eventually and just haven't written the first chapter

so uhh I just finished playing what remains of Edith finch and good god, that game deserves more l9ve its so like beautiful crafted the voice acting is amazing its like such a great game that I cat really put into words but the story is so amazing literally cried at some points

so still like drawing the aftg kid oc I've used a picrew to show what he looks like for the moment until the character sheet thing is done cuz I suck ar drawing and am using like a body base for one of thek and just some crappy ass thing I managed to hand draw by using a reference for the pose (I suck at drawing I'm awful at it so don't expect it to be any good)

He has a name now as well Here is CASEY HART (yes he is called cas for short by some ppl so angst maybe)

do y'all also have mutuals whom you’re actually a fan of? like everytime u see them on your dash u just,,,,, “u go mutual that’s my mutual!!!!! i love u mutual!!!! i can’t even believe we’re mutuals i don’t deserve u!!!! keep being u mutual!!!”

why do this, whyyy.

but also like imagine if cass had put her other foster children in the same gymnastics like theyd be concerned because theyve seen it before and before, imagine what the coaches reactions would be when the aarons case came out and all the information on what drake had done gets out.

glad people are finally starting to agree that Andrew would be good at gymnastics. anyway, Cass put him in gymnastics while he lived with them

so update on the drawing of said aftg kid oc with no name at the moment uhhh I gave up I re like outlined it I think I'll get back to sketching and drawing it all tomorrow because I'm 2 fucking tired for that shit.

uhh also low-key do kinda have a small bit of info of said kid so yeah I can give that 2 you all, should probably clarify that uhhh how do I word this uhh the kid goes through it before meeting the foxes, he meets them like while all the og foxes are still in uni/college (it was a uni right??)

also Kevin does like place a exy stick into this kids hands about a week or two of staying with abby while at the court and the kids reaction to this like full blown reaction is "this isn't a guitar, you made it seem like it was a guitar." Kevin is just like mind blown, insulted because the kid compared a damn exy racquet to a guitar, the boy love music stuff and his dad had an acoustic guitar so like father like son ig.

alright guys aftg kid oc coming soon juts as soon as I figure out how the fuck to draw a racquet whys it so fucking hard, (having to use fucking reference for the arm position which is hardly how'd one would hold a racquet.

HOW DOES ONE DRAW A FUCKING EXY RACQUET OR LAC4OSE RACQUET!!!
