The next time Wymack’s doing shopping he buys a carton of half-and-half and he doesn’t even realize he’s done it until he gets back home.

i think it’s a testament to how much kevin cares abt neil that even when he KNOWS that if neil leaves they will be out of the season, he still tells him to run and save himself because he cant deal with the idea of neil dying. even when it happens, and neil’s taken away, this kid’s still in denial:

“[Kevin] kept thinking, Is this it? Has it finally happened? and he wavered between fury that the Moriyamas/Wesninskis had taken Neil before Neil could finish the year on his terms like he’d wanted, and a wild and gnawing grief he wasn’t expecting. While the Foxes were waiting to be treated he obsessed over Neil’s racquet, trying as hard as he could to fix the strings and straighten the head and clear the smudges from its paint. By prepping Neil’s things for Neil’s return, he was delaying the ugly reality of Neil’s disappearance.”

“I’m not a hallucination,” Neil said, nonplussed.
