    Summary

    All Kent had wanted to do was watch some mindless videos before going to sleep and instead he was now wide awake going down the rabbit hole of some random college kid’s vlog. Because the kid went to Samwell...with Jack. Because the kid was on the hockey team...with Jack. Because this very openly gay kid was talking about Jack in a way that if hockey commentators got a hold of this it would be a fucking PR nightmare. Not to mention could make Jack even more toxic then he already was to other teams in the league. Kent could see Jack's trade value going up in smoke the more he watched. And the Twitter? Nightmare fodder.

    Jack's first year in the NHL doesn't go as planned.

    Summary

    Bitty doesn't know why he even posts the video, but he can't help but be grateful for it when it sparks a friendship with a charmingly awkward internet stranger. Between arguing with his parents about his future, his fear of checking making a resurgence, and life as a college sophomore at Samwell, having someone he can talk to with no filter is an outlet he desperately needs. But as him and his new friend grow closer, Bitty starts to suspect that there may be more to his anonymity than simple shyness.

    Jack didn't go to Samwell AU.

    Completely written, updates on weekends.

    Summary

    “My dad texted me today,” Bitty says, apropos of nothing.

    It’s a testament to how long they’ve been rehashing this same issue that Jack only says, “Ah.”

    [Jack's been in therapy for a long time. Bitty, however, is a different story.]

    Summary

    "Aren't there six of us?" Jack asked as Swoops took five beers out of the fridge.

    "Yeah," Swoops replied, as he rooted through his drawers for a bottle opener, "but Parse doesn't drink."

    That was news to Jack.

    ---

    Jack gets traded to Vegas two years after his first Cup win. In between that win and his trade he does some soul-searching and breaks up with Bitty.

    Inspired by 'I quit drinking' by Kelsea Ballerini & LANY

    Summary

    Kent Parson requested a trade back to the east coast in order to be closer to his family. Walking the narrow path to redemption might have been the main reason for his journey back home, but he found hope, love, and forgiveness along the way. (a.k.a. That time when Kent had a rough end to his playoff season and started his summer by visiting Nursey and Dex at their place in Maine, and ended up falling sideways into a relationship with Dex’s conditioning trainer.)

    Summary

    Eric Bittle is the director of the City of Samwell's Parks and Recreation department. He loves everything about his job, including overseeing the city's municipal ice rink, where generations of kids have learned to skate. Unfortunately, a citywide budget crisis has put Eric's proposed rink renovations on hold, and out-of-town auditor Jack Zimmermann is insistent that the best course of action would be to shut it down entirely. Too bad Eric isn't willing to give up his rink without a fight. He's got a plan. And he may just melt the heart of Samwell's iciest auditor along the way.

    Summary

    Jack's life as a goalie. Sometimes being queer and neurodivergent as a kid is just seen as being the weird kid, and goalies are weird, so maybe if he's a goalie Jack can control how weird people think he is.

    Summary

    Every hockey player knows the Stanley Cup is supposed to be magic.

    Most of them know the stories about wishes and curses and visions of things that never happened.

    A few players know for themselves what the Cup's magic can do.

    What no one knows is what the Cup's magic is.

    What it is, is old. Powerful. Dangerous.

    And it has been waiting for someone like Jack Zimmermann for a very long time.

    Too bad Jack can't remember why. Or what he's supposed to do about it.

    Summary

    No one drafted him.

     

    He awoke the day after the draft--the first draft that is-- in a dimly lit hospital room, his father passed out in an uncomfortable chair, his mother awake and staring out the window at the hospital parking lot.

     

    No one drafted him.

     

    “It was an accident,” he lied.

    Summary

    Kent grins when his name’s called first, no edge of your seat waiting, no anxious butterflies. He grins when his mother screams in his ear, lips so close it’s almost a kiss, and when his step dad claps him on the back. He grins through handshakes and photos and as he’s pulling the Aces jersey over his head.

    By the end of it, his grin feels more like a grimace.

    (Or Kent’s first year in the NHL)
