My Family In Gaza Lives Under Indescribable Difficult Conditions. The Home That Was Once Our Safe Haven
My family in Gaza lives under indescribable difficult conditions. The home that was once our safe haven is now a source of anxiety and fear. My father used to work hard to provide for us, but the war stopped everything, leaving us facing hardships without support. My younger siblings dream of living a normal life, playing and studying without fear of the future. Every help we receive means life, means hope for a better tomorrow. We need a hand to reach out to us, to light our way and ease this pain. Your donation is not just money, it is hope and an opportunity for a dignified lifehttps://gofund.me/ba5b76e9

Aftg keeps finding new ways to ruin(affectionately) very simple things for me. Like I can never hear someone start a sentence by saying “You know, I get it…” anymore.
Even someone just saying “I’m fine” makes me think of Neil mf Josten
And don’t even get me STARTED on anytime someone mentions Baltimore…
Can’t wait to read The Sunshine Court so I can add to this list of things <33
To me, it's fascinating how hell-bent Andrew is about protecting his people; people he didn't even know about for half his life. He gave up Cass - the one good thing he thought he could have - in a second when he found out about Aaron. He moved in with Nicky; a strange, older man who he had never met before, because Nicky could give a home to his brother (tbh I don't think Andrew even thought about himself in that scenario). He took in Kevin, and later on, Neil. And all that for what? For someone to keep near, someone to see him as useful, as important. Someone to give him purpose.
Oh right, this was supposed to be a question. Thoughts?
Oooooo honestly that’s a really great question! My memory of the exact timeline might be a bit all over the place so I could be wrong or misremembering, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it had something to do with Andrew immediately suspecting that their bio mom (Tilda I think her name was?) was abusing Aaron.
I think there’s a possibility that Andrew was able to see parts of himself in Aaron, no matter how much he might deny it.
I think that, for the first time, Andrew met someone who was at least somewhat familiar with the pain he himself had endured and decided that keeping Aaron safe above all else, was more important than his possible future with Cass. The fact that they were brothers probably added to that sentiment, but Andrew would’ve probably made the same decision even if they weren’t.
And from there Andrew attempted to carve out a home for himself surrounded by the people he chose to let in.
Maybe during that time he started to understand that he could have some semblance of a family without Cass, without having to endure what he did in order to keep her. Maybe he was so determined to keep his chosen family that he felt he needed to prove his worth in order to make them stay?
Sorry this got kinda long but I really enjoyed thinking of an answer for this! :DD
I swear I would pay a RIDICULOUS amount of money to get to read the aftg books from Andrew’s perspective.
This 100% has to do with my fascination with him as a character and how he works, but I also just think it would be so funny to get a look into his thoughts when Neil is mouthing off at someone.
Like I imagine that from the outside Andrew just looks bored but on the inside he’s having THE TIME OF HIS LIFE.
“From The Ashes” Chapter 2 is out!!

(Basically the “Neil finally gets therapy” chapter LMAO)
Here’s a little snippet from the chapter:

Help my baby please
🍉I am Hala, a Palestinian from the besieged and destroyed Gaza Strip 😭😭. I fled the war with my husband to Egypt..
The story began on March 21, 2024 when my beautiful child was born.. He was a wonderful and special child.. Suddenly, a week after his birth, my child Abdul Aziz's belly swelled up a lot and I visited several doctors without discovering the reason.. After another week of the child's suffering, I took him to a specialized hospital and the doctors there discovered a blockage in Abdul Aziz's colon that prevented him from excreting stool.. It was decided to perform a surgical operation consisting of an opening in Abdul Aziz's belly to temporarily remove stool from his intestines until the affected part of the colon was removed in another complex surgical operation that cost thousands of dollars..😭😭
I am speaking to you now with great sadness about my child's condition and I ask you to help me and donate to me to collect the costs of the operation within a month from now.
I appeal to everyone who can donate any amount, no matter how small, because it will save my child and give us hope.
Please don't leave my son alone to suffer and struggle in these difficult days alone.. You can support my campaign by donating what you can or share my posts to reach others who can help us by raising the cost of the surgery you are helping in the life of an innocent child with your small contribution. ❤❤🍉🍉
Every donation makes a difference in his very difficult life
