    Summary

    They were short on time, Abram had been sick for too long, Mary had no other choice. Or maybe that's just what the twisted mother wanted to tell herself to sooth her motherly instinct-if she had any- as she abandoned her 10 year old son only 2 years after saving him and herself from his fate and that house.
    After an anonymous call, the CPS took Neil into the foster-care system, placing him home after home until he finally met Cass Spear. A lady who perfectly embodied the average curly blonde, middle-aged woman look with an overly sweet personality that made every and any child she met feel safe.
    Though her candy-like personality was loved by many children before him, Neil felt as though he had a constant toothache any time he got too comfortable.

    On the other-hand, the Spears-after Andrew's outburst, arrest and return to his maternal family, the Minyards-they decided to foster another child, one who proved to be completely mute.

    His name?
    Neil Abram Doe.

    Summary

    “Andrew,” Kevin pants, his eyes wide, chest heaving. “I found us a striker. Oh my god. I found him.”
    “Kevin, don’t-” Aaron yells from the hallway. Kevin slams the door shut, cutting him off.
    The desperation in Aaron’s voice catches Andrew’s attention.
    “Who is it?” Andrew asks, shocking himself with his own interest.
    “Neil Josten."

    Andrew thinks of Neil Josten’s abomination of an essay and resists the urge to hit something.
    “Neil Josten barely knows how to spell his own name,” Andrew drawls.

     

    In which the Foxes need a striker, and Neil somehow fits Kevin's criteria.

    Summary

    When Nathaniel was ten, he watched his mother die before he was sent off to the nest. He learned quickly to harden his heart, do not bend, do not break. Not even when he watches Kevin walk away. But what will he do when the abuse crosses a line and he knows there's only one way to survive? And what will he do when he does? What will he allow himself to have?

    Just want to make a note here for mild The Golden Raven spoilers. This fic does not follow Jean perse so no major spoilers are contained here but there are some mild spoilers for content that is revealed regarding the nest and Jeremy.
