#andreil hc

technically speaking, for the character plotline and development its what makes sense. neil dies first.

neil who spent all his life running from death and in doing so accidentally outran life. neil who had to learn when it’s okay to stay put, to risk it all, for the right people. and andrew is the right people.

andrew who spent years living for others, for their safety. andrew who spiraled when he couldn’t find neil and felt sick because he couldn’t guarantee his safety. andrew that had to learn to trust neil to be okay on his own, had to learn to give up control.

andrew is taking an acting class after he loses a bet.

neil is taking an acting class because matt made his schedule.

kevin is taking an acting class because he’s annoying.

they are all juniors.

first day of class neil sits across the room from a blonde freshman with tattoos and ripped jeans. ugh and he’s sitting next to kevin. why did kevin steal the only interesting person.

kevin and neil have had classes together every semester since freshman year. this was not intentional. neither of them are happy about it.

andrew sees a kid engulfed in a metallica shirt glaring at kevin from across the room. when did kevin have time to piss off a freshman?

the professor has them go around the room, introduce themselves, and ask a classmate a question

neil asks andrew about his tattoos. kevin is upset that neil didnt ask him.

andrew asks neil to name three songs. neil is confused by this, which andrew does NOT find endearing.

after class ends kevin approaches neil and is like “this cant keep happening. switch your schedule.” and neil’s like well that’s too bad, because i have a writing class that cant be moved. so does kevin. the same one. why does this keep happening.

andrew decides to improve the situation by claiming neil as his partner for every assignment going forward. kevin is betrayed. neil is pleased.

the next week when andrew and neil are leaving, their professor pulls them to the side. and asks them if they knew each other before this class, and they’re like uh no ???

and he’s like hmmmmm. interesting. i just wanted to let you know that i noticed such a strong connection between you two on the first day, i assumed youd been intimate for years. ah this is exciting. i cant wait to see how your relationship blossoms.

andrew is mortified. neil is never going to speak to him again.

as soon as they leave the room they just kind of look at each other before neil starts giggling and then fully laughing because what the fuck was that.

neil being a math whiz but struggling in his required english or history class meanwhile andrew can pop out a six page paper in like an hour but is contemplating assassinating the professor for the statistics class he’s required to take

andreil hc just bc i want to

when theyre at a restaurant, andrew always steal neil's dissert n then Neil started ordering andrews favorites ones for him cause he'll eat it anyway.

they doesnt fight too much, just some discussions abt neil being inattentive to things like buying cats food it pisses andrew a lot cause he told he wouldnt take care of those fat hairballs (his words)(but he ends up buying it bc otherwise the cats die of hunger).

Andrew have a letterboxd acc.

in their cart at supermarket, you don't know if they live with kids (cart is full of sugary drinks and snacks for andrew) or with a 70yo man (with all vegetables and Neil's Healthy Foods).

Neil picked up Andrew's habit of eating things in small pieces.

with time Neil become vegetarian. (don't ask me anything)

Andrew always wake up in the middle of the night to eat something and he makes a pre-breakfest to Neil's run in the morning.

Andrew HATES fish & LOVES chicken

Andrew secretly watch trash tv shows.

neil is afraid of giraffe.

Neil is very good at swimming.

Andrew has the type where he has trouble falling asleep. As a child he never felt safe enough to sleep properly, so he got so used to not sleeping and staying up late that even as an adult Andrew’s not able to get to sleep until 2-3 am or later. No matter how tired he is he can lay awake in bed for hours just staring at the ceiling. Sometimes he just has to get up and do something, smoke or watch a movie or do laundry, because he cant stay there with nothing but his thoughts. Neil usually hears him get up and goes to chill with him, even if it means he’s exhausted the next day. Andrews a pretty light sleeper but not as bad as Neil, so once he does fall asleep he can typically sleep the rest of the night as long as he’s not grabbed or disrupted by a loud noise.
