neil choosing andrew over exy with no hesitation will always be my favorite thing like exy is everything to neil and what kept him going for so long so the foxes all think that of course neil would choose exy over andrew but when neil is asked about it he is so floored and shocked by it because he can’t imagine any reality where he would choose anything over andrew, even exy.
