Oh my heart ♥️

[sydnikov]

winter fic fest fairy here again 🧚🏻‍♀️ PLEASE tell me more about figure skating!!! i was literally obsessed with the movie ice princess when i was younger but im the least coordinated person on earth so i could rly never… also what kind of music do you like?? most likely unrelated to the fic but it’s such a good way to know more about someone’s vibe <33

I could go on forEVER about figure skating so this is going under the cut LOLLL

Okay so I've always followed the sport since I was a kid but my parents could never afford to put me in classes bc it's super expensive, so now that I'm an adult with a job and a flexible schedule bc of college I decided to pick it up myself 😌 I've been skating consistently for around 9 months now and it's genuinely the most fun I've ever had doing a sport. I'm not advanced yet but I am learning single jumps, but people who have been doing it since they were kids can do double jumps and triples if they train enough (when I say single, double, and triple jumps, that's just referring to how many times you rotate in the air before landing. The more rotations, the harder the jump)

Uhhh let's see—most figure skaters practice on freestyle ice which is for figure skaters only, and the sessions are super early in the morning, like I go to the 7 and 8 am sessions which means I'm waking up at 5-6 am multiple times a week. For skaters who compete they're waking up at those times practically every day; it's definitely exhausting and takes up a lot of time, not to mention EXPENSIVE

The best of the best compete in the winter Olympics but it's extremely hard to make it there, so for most skaters it's honestly not achievable and is probably the most annoying question you can be asked LMAO and if we can do a triple axel. The axel alone is the hardest jump bc it's the only one with a forward take off and no toe pick assistance, and a triple is only landed by a very small amount of skaters in competition

I can go more into detail about jump types, spins, and the different disciplines in the sport if you want those details! I just don't want to make this post a fic within itself 😭

As for music, I'm ngl I mostly listen to 2000-2010s pop consistently. I do enjoy most genres though, and I love listening to piano music w/ no lyrics

hiiiii it’s your winter fic exchange writer!!!!! ❤️ im SOOOO excited to write for you, i have a couple questions to help me get some inspo for ~~fic crafting~~

-i got the list of players you like to read, who are your favs?? (i assume andrei but let me know if there’s any others u rlyyyy love)

-what are your fav (and least fav) tropes to read?? i wanna make sure this speaks to ur soul!!

-do u want a wintertime fic?? if so plz tell me about any of ur fav winter activities/traditions 👀

-what are ur dealbreakers/least fav things in fic??

-anything about yourself/personality/occupation you’d want reflected in the fic??

again SOOOO excited to write for you! i love reading ur fics so i think this was meant 2 be <3

Hiii!!

1) Andrei is definitely a favorite, you didn't assume wrong LOL Aho, Jarvis, Drury, J. Hughes, and Hischier are also favorites of mine to read for!

2) I love a good enemies to lovers and strangers to lovers + angst—those are my top two "tropes". Honestly I just love reading drama aka angst, gimme ALL the feels, good and bad. As for least fav tropes, I'm not a big fan of fake dating, love triangles, marriage and/or pregnancy

3) Pregnancy or just kids in general, marriage, and cheating (I say cheating only bc this has to be a standalone and I want a resolved ending for angst, otherwise I'm all for it lmao)

4) I'm okay with either! It would be cute to go along with the winter theme but if you have a whole other idea then I won't be bothered at all

5) Even though I said you can choose to set it in the winter or not, I actually do figure skate irl so that's something personal about me to consider including since it goes along with winter. I'm a big introvert and also short asf (I'm 5'3" lmfao) so there's a few other details! Otherwise feel free to get creative, or ask more about me if you wanna get more personal

I'm so excited to see what you come up with, and thank you for the little compliment as well!! I love when ppl tell me they actively read my fics <3

I NEED A BIG BOY, GIVE ME A BIG BOY

I wonder if this will make our front office actually realize we can't ride on a 3rd string goalie when our other two injury prone goalies are out

[sydnikov]

Almost peed myself laughing when I saw this come on screen

[sydnikov]

I hate all our goalies we need a new one asap
