people write sports rpf because ultimately sports are heartbreaking. it does not care for the narratives it itself has set up. and one writes rpf because they try to say that, well, there was love. love will always be there. maybe the team failed, and maybe they’ll never see each other again but there was love in the meantime

few things more humbling than the realization that you really do write the same fic(s) over and over again

Another Summer Night (c3s) additional notes! (spoilers ahead!!!)

This fic started brewing in my head when I was at game two of the series against Hartford and I sent this to a gc w friends

And then as I was starting my 4+ hour journey home I started sending my buddy voice messages. And did not stop.

Some fun quotes contained within:

"Let's just live in the imaginary world where they make it to the Calder Cup Finals again"

"If it was a thing, where, say, like the Bears had just fucking won, like they had just fucking won the Calder Cup I feel like I can absolutely see matty just being like "would you marry me" just in the heat of the moment"

(Then, later, as we were screaming our heads off and people around us were soooo happy for us bc of our bdogs matty jerseys, after he'd won the cup for them, I looked at my friend and went "oh yeah, matty is fucking proposing")

The recycles dumpster not getting emptied for a month is not only a true story, but it happened many times. I've worked (full time) at five locations (guest help at 3 more) and at least three of those had this problem at least once. Here's one of the only pictures I could find (this isn't nearly as bad as it could get)

The employee that switched locations w tip for a week is the one that the steelheads traded him to Saginaw for

The kettle at work really is named cleveland

A couple of the managers group chats were verbatim (or nearly verbatim) from the one I had three bakeries ago, in 2019-March 2020. Things were always happening there fr

(Yes they sure were two days apart)

This is the pic from mattys insta that popped into my mind when I was writing the muppet and mr ive had this face my whole life scene. There are many many other examples but this was the one in particular that it made me think of lol

There are an insane amount of things that happened to me throughout the course of following the Bears (quite literally, in many cases) through this run that were absolutely wild. My god.

I'm very very tired at this point and I can't remember what all I wanted to talk about in this, but here's one last thing: I find the playlist that I listened to while writing and the one I listened to while editing (which for me means retyping the whole thing. Twice) to be so funny bc of how vastly different they are in vibe. So here they are: writing / editing

“Remember how I was talking a little while ago about maybe going to Hershey if the Bears make the playoffs?” Ryan asks him as he scoops bubbles out of the sink Nate is washing dishes at, placing them gently atop his friend’s head. “Yeah,” he replies, unbothered as always. “I still think you should.” “I think I might.” "Good."

uh hiiiiiiiiiii <3 long time no see everyone. guess who's back with another installment of the cvsverse/bakery au
