what if neil had died in baltimore and Andrew started to use neil's keys in a necklace. what if. him kissing the key if the foxes won a game, also squeezing it every single night before he went to sleep, staring at it for hours in bad days, throwing the key away and then immediately regretting it so he had to ran back to rescue the key

I don’t think Andrew and Neil are very into PDA, especially in front of the freshman foxes, but then in front of the original foxes they are constantly touching. Like holding hands, sitting on top of each other, fingers in belt loops type shit. Like especially at movie nights they’re more snuggled together than Dan and Matt. Or at like team dinners they’re sat right next to each other, pressed together from shoulder to thigh, eating off each other’s plates. I’m love the idea that they are just obsessed with each other now that they both feel comfortable and safe enough to express it.

andrew picking out a scrawny calico cat at the shelter and shrugging when neil asked why the specific one, ignoring flashes of a few faded childhood photos tilda had of aaron dragging around a ratty multicolored stuffed cat, the only children’s toy he seemed to have. andrew ignored this even more when months later nicky came to visit and aaron hesitantly dragged a hand across the purring animal collecting fur on the armchair with a heavy look in his eyes

the way you can tell he is on his tippy toes

i love andrew sm nobody talk to me

that is the face of a man worried he will be next

Good news, he was not next! In fact, she accepted him as her mate, he learned the crane mating dance and now every year, he artificially inseminates her with crane semen to expand the very endangered crane population. True story.

Sorry, he WHAT? Imagine being this man's boss and having to sit him down like. Listen. Brian. We need you to fuck the bird. You have to act like you're excited about it.

crane husband.....

this is the diametric opposite of all those awful swan wife stories and i love it.

Not only is he 'married' to walnut, this has apparently happened SEVERAL times, so he has MULTIPLE crane wives, none of which know about any of his other crane wives. This man is, for some unknown reason, irresistible to cranes

the “this content has been removed for violating Tumblr’s Community Guidelines” notice really adds a lot of flavor to this post and somehow makes it MORE obscene than whatever that actually was

I regret being the bearer of bad news, but I thought it should be shared that Walnut passed away in January of this year (2024). There's a lot of mixed info about the lifespan of cranes (due to people misunderstanding what a median is...) but the average for most species I know of is 20-30 years (in the wild if nothing eats them/they don't die young), and 30-45 in captivity, with the oldest known white-naped crane having loved to be 46. Given that she was 42, this old gal did good, and I'm certain she will be missed by folks here.

Fly on forever Walnut Crane-Crowe

extremely funny to me that Kermit the Frog is the only main overlap character between Sesame Street and The Muppets. imagine your day job is hanging out in a community of lovely people that genuinely just want to help kids learn and care about everyone so so much and then your night job is the reason that you have to stay up to date on your rabies AND tetanus vaccine

at noon the giant you're hanging out with is Big Bird! a wonderful fellow who likes reading stories and singing and telling fun facts! at midnight there's a giant named Sweetums who makes you feel like you're being hunted for sport

i want to do a painting of a tiger taking a bath to put in a bathroom (bathroom-themed bathroom) and to this end i made a little maquette out of clay and i suspect this will scope creep into having both a painting and sculpture of a tiger or perhaps only a sculpture of a tiger. if i do both should they be displayed together or separately

the purpose of friends is to have people who unconditionally hate your shitty exes & relatives. like maybe YOU have a complex relationship with your father but i sure don't. i'm outside his house with a gun. he's not the unforgivable asshole who raised me he's just an unforgivable asshole

I just know that Andrew falls a little bit more in love with Neil every time that gremlin chooses to ragebait Kevin.

I think it’s normal for people to be mad at each other sometimes even if they’re close friends or family or intimate with each other. Like I think that’s a normal and healthy part of relationships that can happen sometimes

“Why were you on Mad At Me island” because at the time I was mad at you and yet our friendship has weathered that without trouble
