hey dude, idk how much you remember from the party last night but- yeah, everyone saw your want. yeah no it was pretty late and winding down so it was quiet enough that every single person there saw it throbbing and twitching in your chest and so wet with hunger it was glistening under the kitchen light. they said it looked like it was reaching for something
#filip zadina !#<- no!!!!!! prevs the gurgling shriek that left my mouth!!! forewarned to stop reading if needed i will be RPF-ing this to the moon & back.#(please also just imagine the amount of no no no no nos i just said having to think about this and losing it. NO!!! NOOOO!!!!! no...)#bc you could not know but that is my little z and the psychic damage you’ve inflicted is. immense to say the least. do you ever think about#how blashill fucked zadina’s development to the point he had to ask to go away and they crucified him for it while you lay awake at night#or is that just me and dylan larkin.#AND THEN HE WENT TO THE SAN JOSE SHARKS AND I WANT TO SAY NICE THINGS BUT IF I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT HOW THE SHARKS TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME#I WILL SCREAMMMMM so normally i don't. but it is a disturbing trend of guys going to the sharks who loved detroit and i loved.#give me your fourth-liners your wounded and dreary your once-hopeful faded dreamers you know what i mean. i loved you once and now#here you are in eternal sunshine. like a dog i picture in a heaven i do not imagine for myself you know that poem. i'm going back#to minnesota (or close enough) where sadness makes sense. big svech & gi & zadina & wally all out on the coast of the ocean tasting salt.#& lot's wife looked back how could she not & i loved her for that because it was so human. something something all bodies of water come bac#anyway can you tell that i am majorly hyping myself up to think about zadina because i have loved him for such a long time like. i remember#when he was drafted and being excited for him i watched him grow up and grow sideways and struggle to break through#and he was going to be the new core. the kids were gonna be alright. and we still have moose but everyone else is gone and i KNOW#anyway that's to say u could always tell how badly he wanted to do well & to please & it didn't matter what he did it wouldn't be enough#and anywhere he goes i still love him and i’m happy for him. when i saw him play in worlds it was a joy to watch :)#deep cuts from the draft dumpster dives#um. so i wrote this before our resident loverboy (joe) got traded & all i gotta say is. if u think i’ve forgotten ur screensaver. this u?#so i guess this is really just all of my former red wings who said they loved it here and then had to leave. my god.#me 🤝 trying to say literally anything valid about detroit 🤝 if i loved you less i could talk about it more#ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. HOLD ON. HOW DID I NOT.

Works have been revealed 🎉🎉🎉
An hour early because I woke up early and got EXCITED 🗣️🗣️
PROGRAMMING NOTES
Creators who posted on AO3 - update the date on your work if you want (<- not required but both mods think it's funny af when year-end stats tracking for fandoms gets a wild spike in March that throws off the entire year's average works posted per day)
Creators who intend to post their work on Tumblr - you can do that anytime between now and March 26 🕺 would love it if you tag @theresonly1u somewhere in the post but it's not required.
Everyone - if you like a work, slam that kudos button and LEAVE A NICE COMMENT. Reblog your favorite works posted on Tumblr with nice tags! In our first year we had people do some pretty extensive rec lists as well and I would love to see that again this year since we had 591 works in the end!!
✨ THERE'S ONLY ONE YOU: A SPORTS RPF SHORT FANWORKS PROMPT MEME ✨
#WHO GOT THEIR PROMPT DONE AND POSTED AT 7:58PM??? ME THAT’S WHOOOOOO#don’t ask me abt thinking i had that PST buffer time & it wasn’t due until like. 10PM for me before i realized uh. it’s in EST this year 💀#anyway. biggest love to the mods for putting on such a fun event. twice now it has gotten me to write things i had never even ???? about.#about to spend as much time as possible this weekend going through and reading everybody’s stuff!!!#there’s only one you

update it’s still wednesday and i swear i’m gonna finish my o1u on time!!!

#this is intentionally soooo vague because. i chronically love to share things but never want to spoil them#does it make any sense idk. does the whole fic make any sense idk. am i gonna actually finish it and be happy on time idk#but there are parts of this where i’m like hmm. i like that#and parts of it where i am chasing this story down in the dark and it is sooo out of reach and i don’t know where it’s going#mostly the end. also some of the middle. also the conflict between what i THINK the prompter wanted and my sad ol’ heart#detroit ride or die forever & always#is the only hint. unless you ask because then i will be spilling every single bean i love to yap#liv in the replies#also for some reason i was convinced the due date wasn’t until may and realized probably a week or two ago? and wasn’t even convinced#i was gonna do it so. unhinged fuck it we ball energy going on here.

Rogers, who has worked as the catcher for all of Skubal's starts, jogged to the mound at Globe Life Field to examine his batterymate. He investigated by poking just beneath Skubal's eye with his left index finger, and then, for no reason in particular, he slapped Skubal softly on the other side of his face with his right hand.
"I gave him a little love tap there," Rogers said.
Skubal couldn't help but smile.
"He's a beauty," Skubal said.
------
"I think we have a better relationship off the field than we do on the field," said Skubal, who spent two weeks with Rogers at the alternate site before making his MLB debut in August 2020. "That's not to say we don't get along on the field. It's just, that's how close I am with that guy."
-------
Before every game, Skubal and Rogers complete the USA TODAY crossword puzzle as part of their individual pregame routines.
...
Skubal has improved significantly at the USA TODAY crossword, thanks to lessons learned from Alexander and Rogers along the way, but he still asks Rogers for help.
"I'd say, every other day I need good help," Skubal said, "but some other days I can get it. Today, I got it by myself. Typically, if you can get going and get some clues, it helps you out. If you get stuck in one area, and then you get one word, it'll unlock like 15 words. He'll help me get the one. He's like, 'OK, this is the one that will unlock the puzzle.' And then I'll be able to do a lot of it."
Skubal and Rogers also exchange at least one text message every single day, whether the Tigers are in spring training, the regular season or the offseason.
It's because Skubal and Rogers play Wordle, a web-based game in which players have six attempts to guess a daily five-letter word that's the same for all players. They have texted each other their results every day for the past two years. There's usually lively banter between them, especially if someone doesn't get the word within the allotted six guesses.
-------
Skubal had talked about getting Rogers a gift at the end of last season for catching every pitch of his incredible campaign, much like Justin Verlander would buy a watch for his catcher after throwing a no-hitter. Before the follow-up season begins, Skubal delivered in his usual low-key fashion.
“He got a nice little gift on his wrist, a nice Rolex,” Skubal said Friday. “I just gave it to him the first day I saw him here.”
Actually, two watches.
As a left-handed pitcher with a 100+ mph fastball and a nasty changeup and slider, Skubal is arguably one of one. The watch he gave Rogers is one of two, with Skubal buying the other for himself.
------
The gift is a reflection of that trust. Since then, Rogers has been trying to find occasions to wear the watch, which he joked might be the most expensive thing he owns.
“I’ve been [in] ragged shorts and a t-shirt wearing it,” he said. “I’m wearing it every day. I just got engaged and we got engagement pictures, so I got to wear it last night and show it off a little bit -- hopefully not taking away from her ring. …
“But again, it means a lot to me, so I’m going to try to wear it as much as I can.”
(source one) (source two)
#chanting pointing my finger like THOSE ARE MY FREAKSSSSSSSS also verlander mention 🥰🥰🥰#liv (baseball era)#i promise if you read under the cut it is soooo worth it. i promise. matching custom watches… wordle & crosswords….#detroit tigers#tarik skubal#jake rogers#unrelatedly was losing it reading baseball fic yesterday (posting this for 313 day 🥰) which is so funny. baseball fic is a different breed.#those memes about this edible ain’t shit me fifteen minutes later i can see the colors of the universe and it sounds like bruckner’s 9th?#yeah. baseball and classic stucky imo

nighttime reblog, status update, and realizing i didn’t give commsci harls a fighting chance:
i realized nearly immediately after this went live that no one here has seen this video and my commentary, so in fairness i will give the closest thing i could find to the beginning of commsci dj harls (daydreaming about wyjo copying broadcaster harls announcing his name like that). i am still convinced there is a post somewhere on here that actually started all of this, but in case there isn’t, planning notes:

anyway. i regret to inform the public i was not very productive mostly because my keyboard h button was not working but i AM almost through season 5 of jet lag and i crocheted an entire bee :)
wip wednesday!! crowdsourcing for this fic i’m not writing… everything i have so far CAN feasibly exist within these two frameworks so i want to make y’all pick which direction to go <3
#surely crocheting and detroit breaking their six game losing streak is not tied to the superstition i had earlier in the year. surely not.#we have yet to lose a game while i am watching and crocheting. lmaooooo sorry guys#liv in the replies#also i very much may be confusing the ghost post that EYE think exists with my Thomas hickey posting. or it’s a post in my drafts#OH ALSO when i said legally obligated to say your secret third option in the replies i meant it!!!! come to the inbox. the dms. anywhere.#i am feeling soooo stuck on all my creative ventures and i keep going hmm. well maybe i’ll make a zine for vladdy with each team a page?#but even then I’m like girl you don’t have a PLOT. you have no direction. help.#same for my old man broadcaster yaoi ✊😔 although i might start looking for a st patrick’s day flannel. just for fun to edit & two A/N lines

#me when i write. alternates of alternates of fics that don’t exist. also my own brain is swiss cheese#anyway i went back to the original dj harls tags and i had harls hockey player secret dj with wyjo normie#vs the most recent sets which evolved from color commentary where harls is a commsci major (still who never talks in class)#& wyjo is on the hockey team but still gets off on a bad foot with harls in class. the thing is that either is feasible to me so idk what#to write but i need to figure out which direction it should go bc it is uh. very big change. completely diff wyjo character here)#also i’m so serious when i say i’m not writing it 😭😭 i have like. five DJ intros but this fic feels like a 10k minimum it will be A While#the ACTUAL fic i am trying to write today is my very very late holy jumpin and my o1u#also i have been trying SO hard since somebody liked it to find the rest of the dj harls notes and for once I think they’re all in the doc??#not in the tags??? which means you guys don’t even know about dj harls commsci major…

honestly all of us who have suffered from moderate to severe That's the Puppetmaster Who Cursed My Dick Travis Konecny Derangement Syndrome from roughly 2018 onward have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of given that BRAD MARCHAND succumbed immediately and completely to the same affliction within like 10 business days. that's helen of troy with a scraggly beard and it's not our fault we noticed first.
#no notes. nothing to add. agreed.#travis konecny#philadelphia flyers#honestly this has been here since i first saw it because i just went ‘correct.’ and had nothing to add#like op the way this immediately entered my vernacular. that’s Helen of Troy with a scraggly beard and it’s not our fault we noticed first#AND the truth in the tags which is possibly the best way to explain the fact that eye have zero say in who i’m compelled by ->#you must choose your faves with your dick.#not even that. you must allow your dick to reveal your preordained faves unto you.#WHICH IS SO FUNNY GIVEN HOW MY DICK *DID* CHOOSE TK BEFORE I EVEN KNEW HIS ASS but that’s a different story.#let’s just say longtime chronic that’s the puppet master who cursed my sick travis konecny derangement syndrome. it is cyclic and recurrent#and every time i think i’m normal i see him and i go oh noooooo and then we are back in the hole. charmed.#happy birthday beloved mouse!!! teemmkays!!!!

hiiiii!!!!! coming over from spp and just wanted to say i still have your graphic as my phone lockscreen + wallpaper and continue to be Very much obsessed with it. and i hope you don’t mind my rambling ahead, but on a related note, Merry Christmas, Please Don’t Call came on shuffle earlier this week and i was right back to thinking about Them and all of your lovely thoughts and tags over there! had no real time during the week but blessedly spent this sat. and sun. splayed out on the beach, listening to music, sunshine on my face toes in the sand rpfing 🧖♀️ what better way to spend a weekend! all the while was especially thinking about these two videos in particular:
https[:]//www.tumblr.com/nathmackinnons-blog/134213681294/in-case-anyones-mcstrome-heart-was-hurting-this?source=share (like. what the actual hell lmao. sick and twisted)
https[:]//www.tumblr.com/graveyardgayme/776311014522273792/caps-vs-oilers-g57-20250223-hey-davo?source=share (gobsmacked is an understatement. and after the “it was an honor to be your friend” and the joint connor birthday cake sequence?? goodness gracious)
going to be all over the place because wee hours of the morning haphazard notes app copy paste but some of the songs that have a few lyrics that jumped out to me in various ways: Better Than This by Lizzy McAlpine. i dunno about the whole song but “someone is going to love me better than this / someone is going to love you better than this” reminded me of, like, the dylan finding his home with the caps and connor finding leon of it all. actually a good few lyrics off of her Older album had me lips pursed stroking my chin like hmmmmm. i see it.
Squirrel Flower’s cover of So Hot You’re Hurting My Feelings by Caroline Polachek (“you’re out there killin’ the game, but damn, i miss you tonight”). Sadness As A Gift by Adrienne Lenker (“the seasons go so fast, thinking that this one was gonna last”). unfortunately the word “season” in any song or poem Will make my mind go to hockey for at least a moment. The Hardest Part by Olivia Dean (“you say i’m different now like that’s so strange, but i was only eighteen. i was always gonna change”). Hard Feelings / Loveless by Lorde all-timer!!!!!!!!!!! and as always Hot & Heavy by Lucy Dacus. teekays edit and sassthatsarcasm’s fic both crazy awesome ooh yeahhhh!!! connor back in Erie for his jersey retirement. being back here makes me hot in the face. dylan liking that tweet of connor’s goal during the playoffs. i wish i was over it over it over iiiittttttt!!!!!!!! you’re better than ever but i knew you when!!!!!!!!!!!! wahhhhhhhhh.
anyway i must wrap this up but thank you again!!! truly don’t think i’d be feeling this crazy about these guys if it wasn’t for your response back in january:) wishing you all the best <333
every day i come here and there are just. beautiful missives in my inbox. you send me devastating links (connor/dylan erie otters snapchat story, a deep lore that is Fundamental & DYLAN CONNOR TWO SLOW DANCERS IN 2025 PAIRING OFF IN A FIGHT, respectively) and like. i hope you know there is a playlist. you have built me a PLAYLIST!!! i don’t even have words i’m just here to be the messenger of the visions you gift to me for everybody else <3
#god what an ideal weekend… anon i am wishing you all of the best i am so for real right now. truly think being by a lake rn would fix me#feet in the water… nothing but hrpf-ing… rotating this message like a little sunshine snow globe. ALSO THE PLAYLIST BESTIE PLEASE#i will Tell u time and time again. i love getting your messages. this is like. letters from my bosom friend in a jane austen novel vibes#also when i say devastating links i mean it the connor/dylan Snapchat story takes me 3-5 business days to recover from every time i see it#it truly is a deep magic moment to me it imprinted on soooo many of our psyches but I HADN’T SEEN FROM 2/23 THAT CLIP THE FIGHT AND I HAVE#SO MANY THINGS TO SAY!!! first of all op’s notes? gold. beautiful. 👌🧑🍳💋✨. BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW YOU CAN SEE THAT CONNOR SEES HIM#and THAT’S why he goes so easy. like they’re both skating up to the fight at the same time to pull the guys off? make it fair? but the refs#are there and I can’t tell if dylan says something but connor turns to look at him and drifts off into him and dylan wraps around his back#and they’re slung over each other easy as anything and i watched it on a loop about a hundred times. i’m losing it my guy. what do you MEAN#also taylor is possibly one of the funniest people her & dylan on instagram are just a delight and while i get most of this joy secondhand#bc i am terrible at instagram i do love it here. she loooves a good roast of dyl & also a baby picture cake as evidenced by the dylan 500#cake so I don’t know if this is like. a trend that I just don’t know about bc I’m not hip with the kids to print pictures onto cakes or#if the wags are all into it or if she saw laurenkyle1’s printed cake with connor and was like oh? 👀 but anyway. anyway.#i need to go- *shrieks echo in the distance*. also I have the same affliction re: seasons and hockey I have sooo many little things that#catch in my noggin like that there’s whole tags of them over at spp & also here tbh where it’s either me going ‘this is like that 1 thing’#or players have just developed motifs (dyl my rabbit… cloud petey & brock notably… bert l m a o &then also sometimes guys just get assigned#songs/artists & i have ZERO input for this. zB trevor zegras YOU are assigned suki waterhouse sad girl sparklemuffin pop & i can’t help it)#liv in the replies#also. cover art incoming for the playlist specifically because of the way that dylan’s arm drapes off of connor’s shoulder in their#different uniforms but i swear i’ve seen the same picture of them but both in erie so depending on my skill this is either gonna be drawn#or a mashed together photo edit or we’re gonna see how it goes. i make zero claims to be an artist y’all help. send requests if you have em#davo!!!! god. kills me every time. that’s all i gotta say about THAT because if i think about it for too long AND IF I HAVE TO NOW THINK#ABOUT YOUR IMPLICATIONS ABOUT DAVO COMING HOME TO ERIE AGAIN but dylan’s not there to welcome him but he is in a way and for once now it’s#DYLAN the ghost haunting the narrative of connor walking through the erie streets… oh terrible. delicious. lucy dacus hot & heavy eTERNAL#mcstrome song to me. also you come here and devastate me with the connor/leon dylan/finding the caps of it all… like yeah i know i’ve said#it but HELLO CAN I HAVE A SINGLE SECOND TO BREATHEEEE shot after shot after shot.#mcstrome#connor mcdavid#dylan strome#symbiotic relationship of the mcstrome brainworms bc i would not have gotten as deep back into them w/o u so we’re just that one 🧠〰️🧠 meme

do you think haunting is requited?
In the right stories, the house and the haunting are the same. It's requited in the same way self-love is requited. Or perhaps more accurately, self-hate
#hEY RUSTY SKATE BLADE I’M EATING YOUR DRYWALL (lovingly ferally weeping-ly) i MEAN. THESE ->#what is the lca but a continuation of an ever-growing malevolence in the form of a haunting#stevie brandon seeing ghosts au#can’t remember if i saved this post before or after i absolutely lost it about the joe & the haunting of detroit in so many ways abandonmen#as a form of ghosthood the casual acceptance of your own personal hauntings (worked in a building from 1904 & we all just casually went#yeah it’s haunted. you can hear people all the time when they’re not there the acoustics are weird it’s an old building there’s tons of#nooks & crannies & sometimes you see somebody turn a corner when nobody’s there but it’s just old & haunted it’s not harmful in the least#the ghosts just come with the place & even if you patch over the walls & build new the bones are still there. you can’t renovate a haunting#but there’s something there to it abt the spirit of the joe/the haunting of the lca/same force different vessels/different force same arena#left this for a minute & went ‘now why tf did i tag this stevie brandon seeing ghosts when it is clearly about the building/lca/joe louis &#the sentient stadiums au#EXCEPT IT HIT ME LIKE A LIGHTNING BOLT IT’S THE REQUITED LOVE i tagged it that because stevie/sergei the love is requited (almost typed tha#as required & isn’t that fucking something but also: the ghost alive because you love it because you acknowledge it can a ghost even haunt#something if no one’s there to see it but ANYWAY that’s not what i was on about) it’s stevie brandon seeing ghosts for the real ghost au &#the line about requited like self-love or rather: self-hate OH FUCK OH NO I’VE JUST MADE IT WORSE THIS ADAM IS THE REQUITED LOVE THAT#BRANDON CAN HAVE THIS IS HIS SELF-LOVE HE MADE THIS ADAM UP THIS IS HIS SELF-CONSCIENCE & THIS IS HIS SELF-HATRED TOO THE MANIFESTATION THA#HE THINKS ADAM COULD NEVER REALLY LOVE HIM HAUNTED BY THE POSSIBILITY OF IT the haunting only lasts as long as the self-hatred does that#ghost adam goes away & the end of the story is brandon sitting down under the tree to call real adam & work things out i HATE IT HEREEE I D#the house trying to understand god i KNOW i keep inventing this side plot but isn’t that. like oh this is so the sentient stadiums au actua#because doesn’t the stadium recreate everything it goes through every night playing the game again & again & again i’m going to make myself#unbearable about yet another thing in this post (proceeded to immediately forget what i was going to say thank u brain that works too fast)#& it’s sentient in the sense of a time loop / the way that hockey games are the same thing the same rules sometimes even the same people &#every time it turns out different the stadium is a place for this ritual until it is the ritual the stadium loves you the hauting’s requite#& the stadium doesn’t understand. creates the conditions a perfect replication & yet. the self love / self hate idea of requited is brring#[continued because it’s also relevant to this re: where i put] THE ZAMBONI/GM STEVIE SERGEI HAUNTING FIC THAT ONE TOO. THAT GHOST FIC. guys#wow i really took so what if they fuck on the zamboni which like yeah for sure that happens in this and went ‘hahaha FUCK’ okay wow anyway#<- that one. which has even more unhinged notes for it than i think are on the post but when is sergei not haunting the narrative. in every#way. what is a haunting but an absence! a house trying to make sense!! i also did fully get spiraled into this bc of hughesapalooza’s post#so i need to mention that but. sergei’s number that should be there that isn’t. his presence. the space to steve’s right conspicuous empty
