Riko Moriyama's Groundhog Life by scribbleb_red
Fandoms: All For The Game - Nora Sakavic
12 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
Most people don't get a second chance, let alone a third or fourth. Most people would use those second chances wisely. Riko Moriyama is not most people - but even he can only die so many times before the lessons start to stick.
Riko Moriyama, across four deaths and one last chance, figuring out if monsters can change.
AKA: It's Groundhog Day except the day is the worst years of your life and the lesson you're supposed to learn is that you are, in fact, the villain of the story (unless you do something to change it).

Summary
"Andrew was driving back to his apartment, taking one of the less salubrious routes simply because he could. Down a backstreet full of cramped bars and neon lights, past a string of shuttered shops and a 24/7 laundromat – it was dangerous down this way, well-known for the number of men who’d been murdered after working its corners. Young men. Beautiful men. Junkie men. Men who could be hired by the half-hour for a couple twenties. When they turned up dead, the police called it an overdose and ignored the bruises and broken teeth."
Seven years have past since the Bearcats game where Neil Josten disappeared. Seven years since Andrew Minyard last saw him. Seven years since the last candle was blown out and Andrew realised he was never meant to have nice things. And then one cold, bitter night in New York changes everything.

Summary
Your wish is my command. Here are the "Morning AUs" compiled into one space.
Come and discover a load of Andreil AUs with coffee shop, magic, ghosts and demons, Neil as a witch and Andrew as a bodyguard, or maybe a half vampire. There's angst and fluff and plenty of domestic happy, there's post-canon and emo music and honestly hopefully there's one you'll like.
ENJOY!

Summary
It was a Tuesday.
A miserable, mizzling, nightmare of a Tuesday.
He should have known better. Should have never left the house.
Because he'd just managed to accidentally marry his secret office boyfriend. And he'd managed to do it in front of Kevin 'it's quiet today' Day.
AKA A Morning AU in which Andrew is a Selkie and Neil is a human who doesn't know any better. Or something like that.

tell me the story (of who i am) by scribbleb_red for justadreamfox

Summary
One last roadtrip. One last chance to save a friendship.
14 years ago, Andrew and Neil met on a beach. It was hate at first sight. At least until they realised they were both looking for Alice Flagg's grave - it was a bonding moment that shaped them for a decade. They travelled the length of South Carolina, then the USA, then Europe. Nothing could break them apart. Until Baltimore.
Now, two years have gone by in silence and their friendship is almost as abandoned as the dust towns they used to visit.
Can one last road trip bring them back to where they used to be? Can it save a friendship (perhaps even make it into something more)? Or is it all over for Andrew and Neil?

Summary
He's back again.
The man with the scars in his eyes.
Andrew watches as he gets into the nearly empty carriage, all coiled muscle and too sharp gaze. He clocks Andrew quickly, mouth tightening into what could have been a smile or a grimace.
AKA: The Morning AU where there's a stranger on the same train as Andrew Minyard, crime correspondent for the NYT, and he's pretty sure that there's a story to unearth. He just doesn't know if he should tell it.

Summary
When Jeremy Knox arrives in the famous surfing village of Taghazout, Morocco, he's looking for a chance to relax and reconnect with the ocean and the sport that he loves. He doesn't expect to come face to face with Jean Moreau, owner of the snarkiest eyebrows in California.
Then again, Jean wasn't expecting to run into Jeremy "how fake is my smile today" Knox either. And he's far from pleased.
It was hate at first sight, but can the Atlantic surf, desert skies, and distance from their pasts help them see past their differences? Not if either of them can help it.
AKA The Morocco AU.

Summary
Neil is aware of everyone around him - he has to be if he wants to survive - but he can’t help being distracted by the man clambering around on Allison Reynolds’ roof.
She was the one who pointed him out, to be fair. “I have an absolute beefcake fixing my roof. Just look.”
Neil looked, frowning.
“A very small beefcake,” she added, “but still. Beefcake.”
***
AKA Andrew Minyard is a roofer and a beefcake. Neil Josten is an adorable, dangerous, mess. He also needs a lot more than his roof fixing.

Summary
Taking a monster to bed ought to be more complicated – or at least, that’s what the sensible part of Andrew’s brain liked to tell him.
But for all that Neil was made of phantasmagoria – for all that he tasted of brimstone and fire, that his tongue was sometimes forked, that his skin sometimes shimmered black – it was remarkably easy to drag him out of the shadows, push him down on the bed, take him apart until he was hissing in a language that didn’t belong on any mortal plain. Always had been.
A smutty valentines exchange fic.

unbeing dead isn't being alive by scribbleb_red

Summary
Andrew Minyard can’t die - he’s been killed a number of times. Once by Drake, once in the car with Tilda, he should have bled out after being stabbed by one of the men who bashed Nicky... he always wakes up though.
Which is why he takes a bullet for Neil Josten, a perfect stranger (and Andrew really means ‘perfect’).
Problem: instead of fleeing the scene after being saved, Neil sees a bullet push itself back out of Andrew’s skull.
“You’re like me,” Neil says.
And Andrew’s whole world shifts on its axis.
