Summary
When Wymack, Kevin and Andrew came to recruit Neil Josten in Millport, Neil decided to say 'no' instead of 'yes' to joining the Foxes and does what he does best, which is run. Unfortunately, that brings him to the attention of the Moriyamas, who return him to his 'rightful' place.
Now Neil has to learn how to survive at the Nest with his only ally another 'asset' long kept under Riko's heel.

Summary
SEQUEL TO: [don't break the glass]
// Neil shrugged and his body got heavier on top of Andrew’s. There he was—hiding it again. He had told him that he wasn’t going to wear that mask anymore, but Andrew could see clear as day the moment it slipped away. Nathaniel was the mask, and underneath it…Neil Josten wanted out. //
[While trying to get a fresh start in Palmetto, Neil's dark past has a way of creeping up on him. Andrew won't be letting him go so easily this time. Jean struggles with recurrent memories of the Nest and Jeremy bites off more than he can chew. Kevin and Aaron explore new ways of defining their relationship.]

Summary
An AU where Mary never got Nathaniel out. Instead, he became too invaluable of an asset to be killed off or 'gifted' to Tetsuji. Instead, he's raised with Ichirou and Jean as a part of Ichirou's inner circle.
He'd always had a knack for languages and lying and all the 'messy stuff' came easily enough when your father is called the Butcher of Baltimore. So Nathaniel became the Wraith. He was untraceable, unknowable, infalliable; a criminal fairytale.
When Kevin Day leaves the Nest, there's no better person to send.
~
"Who the hell are you?" Andrew demanded.
He wasn't anyone, not really; not anymore. He hadn't really been anyone in years now. There'd been a time. Once. But there were entire lifetimes between who he could have been and what he'd become. He could taste it sometimes; blackberries and sand stinging his tongue like the iron branded on his shoulder.
It was easier to pretend he'd never been anyone at all.
"I'm nothing," he answered. The ghost of a smile pulled at his lips; sharp and cruel. "A wraith." The Wraith, he didn't say, but the shadows ran through Andrew's eyes and he wondered if Andrew had heard it anyways.

Summary
“He’s joining us earlier than we anticipated.”
“He’s a flight risk. This way there should be no more risk of him getting away from you. I’ve killed his mother. He belongs to you.”
“Six years old and already training in the Raven’s nest. He will be a player that won’t be rivaled.”
Nathaniel lives a hard life in the ravens nest, choosing Jean and Kevin's safety and happiness over his own constantly. Like the martyr he is. Then one day he is given a chance. It's a fools bet, and Nathaniel is unlikely to win it.
But he has one season to take the Foxes to championships and win.
If he doesn't, well.. he doesn't like the other options.
So he makes his own. Win or die.

Summary
“Take your shirt off.”
Andrew had walked into the dorm, just home from a stupid class, glanced around the room until his eyes caught in Neil sitting cross legged on the floor with Kevin’s laptop open in front of him, Kevin beside him. Andrew had ignored the fact that Kevin (and also Nicky) were also in the room, issued this request disguised as a demand without taking his eyes off Neil’s.
Neil had looked up when Andrew had walked in, his eyes finding Andrew’s eyes just as unerringly. His only sign that this was perhaps anything out of the normal was his left eyebrow quirking up.
Neil kept their gaze locked as he sat up straighter, and then grasping his loose t-shirt by the back of the neck, tugged it off in one movement.
Andrew struggling with wanting vs having. Sex is danced around, talked over in therapy, and also had.
