The Perfect Court
All I could think about the entire time I was drawing this was the song "No Church In The Wild," cause I think it is the most fitting perfect Court song to ever exist, but fuck Kanye
i’ve warmed up significantly towards the concept of small talk ever since i learned that its sole purpose is to make friendly noises.
as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now.”
small talk isn’t to get to know a person. it’s just a greeting to affirm you’re buddies in the universe.
i am motivated by wanting the other person to know i am friendly, so i have gotten pretty decent at small talk when i used to hate it.

I love trans Neil headcanons for a number of reasons, specifically how funny it would make how everyone reacts to him having a secret identity is
His father being like “I don’t care that my child is trans, I will respect his pronouns, I’m just going to kill him for unrelated reasons”. Also the idea of him finding out Neil is trans and being like “Oh ok. Your new name is Nathaniel, after me, obviously. Anyway, when you’re dismantling a body your instinct will be to go for the joints, however-“
Riko, and by extension Kevin and Jean, just seamlessly accepting Neil’s new gender into their fucked up codependent evil situationship without missing a beat because Neil’s gender doesn’t matter so long as he’s good at Exy. The others being like “Wait you knew Neil used to be a girl and didn’t mention it?” And Kevin just being like “What does it matter, Exy is a unisex sport, he would be allowed to play either way” and that’s just as far as his brain got
Andrew hooking up with Neil and getting his hands in Neil’s pants and internally going “Well that’s unexpected but honestly still probably only the third most unexpected thing about him” and then just carrying on
And most of all that it would be in character for Neil to not mention it as a narrator because if it doesn’t pertain to Exy, the mafia, or Andrew and Kevin then he’s probably just not even going to consider it relevant

andrew never having kids but being the safe adult for the team’s kids. you can always tell uncle andrew anything you need to and he won’t tell your parents unless you’re in danger. he’ll guard that secret with his life. if you’re underage drinking and need a ride home, he’ll pick up within four rings and drive however far he needs to so that you have a safe way to get home, and he won’t even lecture you about the drinking, he’ll just tell you how to be safe about it
he’ll teach you how to throw a punch without hurting yourself, take you to get that piercing your parents don’t want you to get, sign that bad grade, buy the r rated movie - anything, everything.
