Tkachuk has ‘really special’ day bringing Stanley Cup home to St. Louis
Panthers forward visits first responders, children’s hospital with famed trophy
ST. LOUIS -- Matthew Tkachuk remembers visiting family in Boston, the first stop usually being the North End fire department where his grandfather, John Tkachuk, was the chief.
“We’d ride the pole, try the hat on, sometimes we’d go for a ride even though I don’t know if that’s allowed,” the Florida Panthers forward said with a laugh on Thursday. “It was super cool and anytime I see firemen, on duty or off, I always make sure to go say ‘Hi’.”
And when Tkachuk had his day with the Stanley Cup on Thursday, the Brentwood Fire Department, located about 15 minutes west of his hometown of St. Louis in Brentwood, Missouri, was one of the stops he definitely had to make.
It was an enjoyable day for Tkachuk, who had 61 points (24 goals, 37 assists) in 71 regular-season games and 22 points (six goals, 16 assists) in 24 Stanley Cup Playoff games to help the Panthers win their first Cup championship last month.
His time with the Cup actually began Wednesday, when he took it to lunch at Grassi’s Ristorante in Frontenac, Missouri, about 15 minutes west of St. Louis.
On Thursday he brought the Cup to his elementary school, Villa Duchesne in St. Louis, the St. Louis Children’s Hospital and the Brentwood police and fire departments.
“It’s been amazing," he said. "I’m trying to have that little mix of fitting everything I want possible in, but also want to enjoy it with those who are close to me. It’s been awesome so far and I’m sure the day’s going to continue to be awesome.”
There was no riding on the pole at the fire department this time, but Tkachuk did try on a fireman’s hat, saying that “it was a little snug. I’ve got a big head, but it was good.” He also took photos with the firemen and their families, displaying the Cup in the department and outside in front of one of the fire trucks.
Brentwood assistant fire chief Ed Beirne said when he told his staff that Tkachuk would be coming by with the Cup, “I didn’t think their eyes and mouths could open any wider.
“It’s an honor for us to actually be considered,” said Beirne, whose grandson, Faris, was placed in the Cup for one of the photos.
“Although we know the Tkachuk family is part of Brentwood, growing up around here, this is a massive effort to win the Cup. For them to remember and humble us by sharing his day with the Cup, I know he gets it for a short amount of time, but to share that time with us and then bring a lot of joy to the staff and family we were able to assemble, that is what’s really special about public safety and the NHL in general. It’s a family sport. All of us have played it, it’s a family, and this is a testament to that.”
When Tkachuk brought the Cup to the police department, he was joined by his immediate family, including brother Brady, captain of the Ottawa Senators, and father Keith, the former NHL forward who had 1,065 points (538 goals, 527 assists) in 1,201 games with the Winnipeg Jets, Phoenix Coyotes, Atlanta Thrashers and St. Louis Blues.
Brady was catching up with Matthew after some early-morning training.
“I can’t just be riding his coattails. Have to prepare for next season,” Brady said with a laugh.
“This is our childhood dream, just to see it up close and personal, to see how happy and genuinely excited and fulfilled and satisfied Matthew is, it’s amazing to see. It’s been awesome to see, and it’s definitely created that burning desire for me to provide that for my family and friends, too.”
Matthew took photos with individual officers and staff members, who were hesitant as they approached the Cup.
“Anybody that knows anything about hockey knows the Cup is sacred, so we’re scared to touch it,” Brentwood police chief Joseph Spiess Jr. said.
“The Tkachuk family has a strong presence in Brentwood. Not only do we get to protect them, but we get to share in their celebration, so it’s cool for us. Most of the people in this building are huge fans, sports generally, but hockey in particular.”
When the Vegas Golden Knights won the Cup in 2023, it marked the first time that names were engraved on the Cup prior to players and staff getting their respective days with it. It was something Matthew appreciated.
“It’s really special for my family. Years and years and years of hockey in our blood and for grandparents and extended family that come to my house and see that Tkachuk name on the Cup there, it’s truly such a special thing,” Matthew said.
The family had its own time with the Cup by midday Thursday. After bringing home some barbecue, Brady and Keith, along with Matthew’s sister, Taryn, mom Chantal and his fiancée, Ellie Connell, took turns taking a sip of beer out of it.
Tkachuk had already spent some quality time with the Cup. He and a few Panthers teammates brought it to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on June 25, the day after they defeated the Edmonton Oilers 2-1 in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final. That day, they brought it to the Elbo Room, a bar near the beach, and Tkachuk carried the Cup into the Atlantic Ocean.
But there’s something special about bringing it back to your hometown.
“It hasn’t sunk in,” Keith said. “It’s been so much fun watching Matthew with the Cup with other people. That means more than winning, so it’s so cool. We’re pretty proud. He’s been around, grew up here, wants to be a part of it and he took it everywhere. Everybody’s loving it. We’re loving it.”

Music Monday & "Which child of Agamemnon and Klytemnestra are you?" quiz
Tagged by @socially-awkward-skeleton
Tagging @adelaidedrubman @shallow-gravy @cassietrn @chazz-anova @strangefable @wrathfulrook @josephslittledeputy @josephseedismyfather @voidika @onehornedbeast @vampireninjabunnies-blog @g0dspeeed @direwombat @strafethesesinners @jillvalentinesday @inafieldofdaisies @minilev @a-rose-in-a-garden-of-weeds @snake-in-the-garden and @nightbloodbix
You can find the quiz here. Music and results below:
After my last WIPs only showing angst, here's a love song for OCs Azriel and Schrödinger Turquoise specifically from Far Cry The Silver Chronicles (however, as of typing, I do not make any promises that quiz results will not include angst). Song below:
youtube
"Well I don't care what they think Drag racing my little red sports car I'm not unhinged or unhappy, I'm just wild
I'm on the run with you, my sweet love There's nothing wrong contemplating God Under the chemtrails over the country club We're in our jewels in the swimming pool Me and my sister just playin' it cool Under the chemtrails over the country club
Meet you for coffee at the elementary schools We laugh about nothing as the summer gets cool It's beautiful how this deep normality settles down over me I'm not bored or unhappy, I'm still strange and wild
You're in the wind, I'm in the water Nobody's son, nobody's daughter Watching the chemtrails over the country club Suburbia, The Brentwood Market What to do next? Maybe we'll love it White picket chemtrails over the country club
My love, my love
Washing my hair, doing the laundrey Late night TV, I want you on me Like when we were kids under chemtrails and the country clubs It's never too late, baby, so don't give up It's never too late, baby, so don't give up."
And now three results from the quiz!
First we got Eleanor (from The UnTitledverse). And hot damn she got called out. Considering she was created by the first evil being of darkness (by function) to be created into existence only to side with its twin which is an Eldritch that is the embodiment of good and light (though take caution, both Eldritch take their moralities to the extreme) definitely fits the vibe Elektra is giving off.
Tumblr media
Next we got Ezekiel (from Far Cry The Silver Chronicles). A man just looking for any survivors from the Tumultite Massacre, hoping his diversion had succeeded in driving away the Enforcers from the Omar sisters (+ Silva's infant daughter). Only to find a world broken down by war and hoping to fix it alongside Thomas Rush as his Captain of Security.
Tumblr media
And lastly we have Inviticus (from Life, Despair & Monsters). An antagonist apart of the Midnight Rise, he is Malvolio's main enforcer, and he takes pleasure in the pain he inflicts on his endless hunts.

Daddy Diaz
Summary: You’re the teacher of an eight year old girl named Diana Diaz. Pairing: SingleFather!Oscar x Teacher!Reader POC Visuals Warning: If you are not a POC (specifically black women) some things mentioned/said may offend you. All things said in reference to PWOC (people without color) can be proven true. PWOC heed at your own risk lol.
I grabbed all my supplies out of my car and began to walk towards Brentwood Elementary (ik its not creative). As I heard my heels click and clack against the freshly cleaned tile floors of the hallway I thought about the long unnecessary conferences I would be having with my students’ parents. The principal mandated that all teacher must have face to face conferences with parents to discuss the progress of the students. I say that is useless because I had already held a parent teacher conference last week, but the principal only wants us to re-hold (is that english??) the conferences because of the observers that are supposed to be visiting. 
“Ms. (L/N)” 
A scratchy voice boomed through the hallways. I turned to see that it was Mrs.Adams the 4th grade history teacher. I turned to face her with a half hearted smile.
“Good morning Mrs.Adams. Can I help you with something”
“I just wanted to remind you that the observers were coming today and I was wondering if you were going to fix your hair”
She said this with a look of distaste.
“I don’t know what you mean Mrs. Adams. Can you be more specific as to what is wrong with my hair” 
I was biting my tongue trying not to waste any of my energy on this white lady’s shenanigans.
“I mean it’s just so unprofessional. Did you forget that the observers are coming today, because I don’t think you would’ve come to school consciously with your hair looking like that”
The more she talked the stronger I had to suppress myself from unleashing a whole world of hurt upon this white lady. She knows what she’s doing. She wants me to act out in front of the guests and parents. She’s had it out for me every since I transferred into the history department. It’s pretty obvious what her problem with my hair or should I say her problem with me is. Just before I could say something I felt a strong somewhat reassuring hand land on my shoulder. Just as I turned my head to see the owner of this reassuring hand a deep commanding voice began to softly echo off of the walls of the hallway.
“Don’t you think it’s pretty unprofessional to comment on a co-worker’s appearance” 
A tall Latino man wearing grey coveralls with a name tag that read Oscar spoke.
“I wasn’t making a comment on her appearance i was simply making a suggestion. I’m entitled to voice my opinion, don’t you have some floors to clean” Mrs. Adams glared at Oscar with a condescending tone.
“Keep your opinions to yourself, nobody cares for what you have to say. I’m actually here for the parent teacher conference, but i don’t know about having my child in a school with such a racist bitch like you” he glared back at her.
Mrs.Adams’ jaw dropped. She had just insulted a parent this could be the end of her career. 
“I definitely hope yo ass aint Ms. L/N because then I think we might have a fucking problem”
“Actually I am Ms. L/N. If you follow me I can lead you to the classroom and we can begin the conference” I spoke up as I politely pushed Oscar away from Mrs. Adams.
As we walked away from Mrs. Adams Oscar sent her the evilest stank eye I have ever seen. I would personally never want to be on the receiving end of his glances of disgust, because if looks could kill Mrs. Adams would drop dead in the blink of Oscar’s eye. 
I fumbled with my classroom keys as I attempted to make small talk with Oscar. 
“Thank you for intervening Oscar. It’s too early for me to handle her” I said with a hand gesture in her direction. (i didn't know how to describe the specific hand gesture but if you know you know) 
“No problem Maestra, but how you know my name? Did we fuck?” he smirked.
I quickly opened the door and replied with a swift No.
“Then how you know my name Oscar Morenita “
“Your name tag. Your name is literally plastered across your chest” 
“You checking me out Maestra” He stepped closer to me and stared at me playfully.
“Maybe” I matched his playful energy and smirked at him. 
I know i’ve been gone for a long ass time and this is hella short, but I just wanted to show y’all i’m still alive cuz some of yall seemed a lil worried. Tell me if I should turn this into a mini series✨

Tim’s Complicated School History
So I’ve noticed there seems to be a fair bit of confusion on where Tim went to high school, whether he dropped out or not, if he went to private or public school, etc., so I thought I’d create a general chronology of (Pre-Flashpoint) Tim’s tumultuous high school career. The confusion about this is deserved, as Tim has literally gone to no less than FIVE high schools and also homeschooled for a bit, so it’s a LOT to keep track of. Tim has attended both private schools and public schools, and has gone to school in Gotham and Bludhaven (and almost Keystone!), ultimately ending his school days when he dropped out of Gotham City High School during his senior year to go search for Bruce after the events of Final Crisis.
Here’s the breakdown:
Pre-High School: Tim attended private boarding schools until he was about 13-14 years old. To my knowledge these schools are never specifically named, but 13-yr-old Tim mentions in Batman #441 that he attends a boarding school just outside Gotham. In Robin III #4 Tim angrily tells his dad that him and Janet “shipped [Tim] from one boarding school to another and nobody paid any attention as long as [his] grades stayed high.” This seems to imply that Tim attended a number of different boarding schools, when there’s really no reason for him to have attended more than two (an elementary and middle school), and even then a number of private boarding schools are actually K-8 (if not K-12) so I don’t know why he attended so many schools?? Nevertheless, from K-8 Tim attended private boarding schools, primarily in the Gotham area presumably.
Tim was probably still in middle school in his earliest appearances (Batman: A Lonely Place of Dying, Batman: Rite of Passage, etc), but he starts high school right around the time he finishes his Robin training (around the time of the first  Robin miniseries).
High School #1---Gotham Heights High School: The first reference to Tim being in high school comes from the 1991 Robin II miniseries. Tim has recently started at Gotham Heights High School as a ninth grader. This comic takes place after Tim’s parents were kidnapped and poisoned, and so while Jack is in the hospital Bruce is acting as a guardian of sorts for Tim. It’s at Gotham Heights that Tim befriends Sebastian Ives, as well as his friends Hudson and Callie Evans. When Ives asks Tim about the fact that he seems too rich for public school, Tim explains that he used to go to private school but that Bruce had him transferred into public school because he thought it would be “more broadening.” Even after Jack gets out of the hospital he allows Tim to stay at Gotham Heights HS, although Jack clearly has a low opinion of public schools. Tim presumably started at Gotham Heights HS at the beginning of the ninth grade and attended for about a year and a half.
Interlude---Keystone: After the events of Cataclysm, Tim’s family moves to Keystone to avoid the chaos going on in Gotham. (They only end up staying a few weeks at the most, but they moved with the intention of living there permanently, meaning that Tim was transferred out of Gotham Heights HS.) In Robin #63 Jack mentions trying to get Tim into Keystone Academy, but that it’s tough in the middle of the school year and that he was working on getting him a tutor in the interim. Tim was supposed to meet his new tutor the same day that he went back to Gotham to be with Steph while she had her baby. He left without telling his dad, and so Jack and Dana come back to Gotham to get him and they all decide to stay in Gotham after all. It’s unclear if Tim returns to Gotham Heights HS briefly or if he just doesn’t return to school until he’s enrolled at Brentwood.
High School #2---Brentwood Academy: After the events of No Man’s Land, Tim is enrolled in Brentwood Academy, a boarding school in Bristol Township (a wealthy suburb directly to the north of Gotham, where the Drakes and the Waynes both live). After missing so much school, Jack forces Tim to go to a boarding school so that his grades will hopefully come up. (I think the reasoning here is that if Tim lives at school then he’ll have no good excuse for missing class?) In Robin #75 Tim refers to himself as a “new sophomore,” and he transferred to the school some time after sophomore year started (almost definitely after winter break, but I can’t find an issue that confirms this?) but before spring break. Tim’s main friends at Brentwood are his first roommate Ali, his second roommate Wesley, and his classmates Buzz, Kip, and Danny. Tim isn’t at Brentwood for very long though. After only a few months (maybe even less) of Tim being at Brentwood, Jack finds out he’s lost a good portion of the Drake family fortune in bad investments. He’s forced to withdraw Tim from school as he can’t afford the tuition anymore, and the Drakes sell their home in Bristol Township and move into their townhouse in inner-city Gotham.
Interlude---Rest of Sophomore Year: When Tim left Brentwood it was rather late in the year, and it was apparently too late to re-enroll him in public school, so he took the rest of the school year off. That summer he has to take a placement test that will keep him from having to repeat the 10th grade. He passes, so when he re-enters public school he does so as a junior.
High School #3---Louis E. Grieve Memorial High School: Tim starts his junior year at Louis E. Grieve Memorial HS, where he quickly befriends Bernard Dowd and Darla Aquista. He doesn’t attend school here very long, probably for about 3-4 months (he’s only been at Grieve Memorial HS for a few weeks when he’s forced to quit being Robin, Steph takes over for about 2 months, and then it’s only another couple weeks until the events of War Games). During War Games, Tim’s friend Darla is targeted by several mobs (because her father is an Italian mob boss) and mobsters take over his school and end up killing several students, Darla included. Darla’s funeral is one of three that Tim has to attend in as many days, his dad being killed during Identity Crisis and Steph “dying” at the end of War Games.
High School #4---John Wayne High School, Bludhaven: After War Games and Identity Crisis, Tim moves to Bludhaven to try for a fresh start. He picked Bludhaven specifically for an in-patient facility that will help his stepmom, Dana, process her grief over Jack’s death. Tim moves to be close to her and starts attending John Wayne High School. He probably only attends for about two weeks though, before he has his (fake) Uncle Eddie withdraw him from the school to start homeschooling. Tim withdraws with the intention of homeschooling until he can test out of school early. But it isn’t long (maybe another month or so) until Infinite Crisis, and then Tim and Dick go on a nearly year-long training journey with Bruce.
Interlude---OYL: During the missing year* between Infinite Crisis and One Year Later, Tim isn’t in school at all, as he and Dick and Bruce are travelling the world and training. 
(*Also, with the nightmare that is comics continuity and the passage of time, Tim really couldn’t have been gone for more than like,,,,6-8 months, as it was late winter/early spring when Infinite Crisis happened---at least according to the Robin series---and it’s summer when he returns to Gotham. He’s still 17 early in the Red Robin series so it couldn’t have been a year and a half that he was gone, therefore he could only have been gone for like half a year.)
High School #5---Gotham City High School: After the OYL time jump, Tim starts attending Gotham City High School. He starts during the “summer session” (presumably to make up for the semester he missed during OYL?) before his senior year. His main friends here are Zoanne Wilkins (who he starts dating), Jared Walton, Craig Pulaski, and then both Ives and Steph transfer to GCHS during Tim’s senior year (altho Steph is usually a year older than Tim in Pre-52 canon, so it really makes no sense for her to be there??). This is the high school Tim is attending when he drops out of school in his senior year to travel the world looking for Bruce. In Red Robin #17, Tim and Ives meet for lunch (after Bruce has returned and Tim has moved back to Gotham) and Ives mentions Tim not finishing senior year. Tim asks Ives how senior year is going---implying that the events of the first arc of Red Robin only take a few months---and catches up on how Ives and Zoanne are doing.
Some general Tim school stuff: Tim is a very smart kid, but not a very good student. In the Robin III miniseries both Jack and Tim’s school counselor make reference to the fact that before high school Tim had always been a straight A student, but that his grades and attendance have slipped considerably. He is routinely too tired to pay attention in class, he’s constantly missing weeks of school, he fails to complete homework assignments bc of Robin missions, etc. Several times he even references in his inner monologue that he thinks he might fail a specific class. And honestly, Tim just doesn’t care about school. He often makes irritable inner-monologue comments about preferring practical application over learning things in a school setting, he tries to get himself out of school permanently when he lives in Bludhaven, etc. That being said, he’s never been noted to actually fail a class and even with all the school he’s missed he’s never had to be held back, so presumably he’s still earning like Cs in most classes.
