Jack Hughes devoured Canucks playoffs, surprised Quinn before Game 7

Luke Fox

His shoulder recently repaired by season-ending surgery and his arm in a sling, Jack Hughes plopped himself on the couch this past April and binge-watched the Stanley Cup playoffs.

The New Jersey Devils star would fire up two TVs at once so he could catch the end of the Eastern Conference tilts and not miss a second of older brother Quinn's shifts in Vancouver.

"I was mostly watching Canucks," Jack told Elliotte Friedman and Kyle Bukauskas Tuesday during a recording of their 32 Thoughts podcast.

"The playoffs are the best. That's why you want to get back to 'em. When you're on the couch watching, you feel like a loser. You want to be in the mix."

But after Quinn's Canucks knocked off the Nashville Predators in a low-scoring first round — "just lock-it-down playoff hockey," Jack enthuses — simply watching in 4K wasn't enough.

Jack never forgot Quinn's effort to fly to New York attend Jacks' playoff games against the Rangers in the 2023 post-season and wanted to return the favour. Show his support.

So, Jack and his fragile shoulder made plans to jet to YVR for games 1 and 2 of the Edmonton series and cheer on the Canucks in-person, a la Brady Tkachuk representing big bro Matthew.

Alas, there was a snag.

"Bro, I can't find my passport," Jack told Quinn over the phone, prior to Round 2.

A disappointed Quinn didn't want to make his brother feel guilty for forgetting his passport in New Jersey while he rehabbed in Michigan.

Plus, he had their mom in town to cheer him on.

Following the morning skate of Game 7 of the Canucks-Oilers series, Ellen Weinberg-Hughes asked Quinn to bring home some extra pasta for lunch.

Quinn found that strange. Mom had never requested pasta in the five years he'd been a Canuck.

When Quinn returned home with lunch and prepared for the most important game-day nap of his career, Ellen told him she had to go downstairs and fetch a coffee order.

She returned with Jack, who'd arranged to have his passport shipped in time for him to fly out for Game 7.

"I was shocked. I couldn't believe it. Obviously, the pasta was for him," Quinn chuckled. "I didn't want to go for my nap. I just wanted to stay up and shoot it."

Of course, the Canucks lost a 3-2 heartbreaker to the eventual Western Conference champions. But Quinn was grateful to have his brother there for him postgame.

Jack assures his shoulder is now fully recovered (enough to beat Quinn heads-up in the family golf contest), and both brothers expressed their hunger to return to the playoffs.

At the same time, for the first time.

Jack admits that his Devils took a "step back" from '23. Defensively, they were looser. Gave up too many chances.

"We weren't a hard team to play against," said Jack, encouraged by the Devils' off-season injection of talent and the arrival of coach Sheldon Keefe.

"You know, you get a taste of the playoffs, you win a series, and you think you're going to be in the playoffs every year. It doesn't work like that. It's hard to get back to the playoffs."

Heck, sometimes it's hard just to attend the playoffs.

5, 12, 30 for the rapped askss

AHH thank you kind anon 🙏🏻 if anyone else wants to indulge me and make me the happiest of humans the list of AO3 Wrapped Questions can be found here. (Please... please send more... I will write you anything you want if you send more 🙏🏻 might even do a double fic update if I get my act together and am also sent more lol)

5. What work of yours got more feedback than you expected?

I was expecting maybe two people total (myself included!) to read You Know Where the City Is (my Matty / Taylor 2014 Fake Dating AU) and have been so pleasantly surprised that there are more than two of us reading it. Even after the whole May situation, people have continued to be so lovely and I am very grateful. (Sometimes) is another one I was absolutely blown away by the response to. It deals with a difficult, delicate subject matter and people have just been so absolutely lovely, commenting on AO3, and reaching out on Tumblr about it even months later and I am just so thankful to everyone who has given it a chance and also who has reached out. I wasn't expected much of anything with it (especially with it being one of my first fics in the fandom) and am still just absolutely blown away by how receptive and kind everyone is. (Not going to lie it is also still probably my favorite completed fic and one that I am the most proud of.)

12. How many WIP’s do you have in your docs for next year?

Too many 💀 Official Running List Below: 1. Hopefully finish Make Way for Ducklings 2. Hopefully finish On a Friday 3. Hopefully finish You Know Where the City Is 4. *NEW* Equestrian AU - first chapter is 100% finished, the next few are in the works - potentially will go rogue and start posting before the new year 5. *NEW* another visit to the Infection Fic 'Verse - Fictional!Matty and Fictional!George getting together the very first time as teenagers (has been started - probably a one shot like the Eye/Ear infection fics) 6. *NEW* yet ANOTHER visit to the Infection Fic 'Verse (my precious baby) - I received a few asks about Fictional!Matty adjusting to life after rehab / post his second inpatient hospitalization and am interested in exploring that as well (rough outline stage - probably a one shot like the Eye/Ear Infection Fics) 7. *New* The Nashville Fic™️ - outlined, chaptered, I am very thankful to the kind anons who were so encouraging with this one because once again I fully thought I was going to be the only audience for it. Because I have no chill there is also more but these projects are my priorities at the moment moving into the new year - don't worry this can and probably will change 💀

30. Biggest surprise while writing this year?

There have been a few! One is how much fun I have been having writing in this fandom instead of just lurking, and how many special wonderful people I have started chatting with here on the internet because of writing fic. Historically, I just kept to myself and posted my fics without really getting to know anyone else because I'm shy and awkward, and it's been so special throughout the process in this fandom to have made some internet friends 🥰 I am also so shocked by how much the Infection Fic 'Verse has become a thing for me - someone sent me an ask asking if I would write about the whole droopy eye situation this summer and somehow Fictional!Matty decided he had AILMENTS and he needed to SHARE THEM which has been a lot of fun! That version of Fictional!Matty has become very special to me - he is my precious little baby and even if I torment him, I also love him very much.

Thank you, so, so vey much for indulging me and sending in asks for the AO3 Wrapped [writers edition] situation! I find this kind of stuff so much fun and it makes me so ridiculously happy! So thank you so very much kind anon who sent this in! I hope you are having the absolute best day (and if you have any fic / prompt requests send them my way!!) and if anyone else wants to send any the list can be found here.

[bowtiesnmusicals]

Here is my recap of the What’s Up Pitches! (w/Tim Davis) episode of the podcast.

Tim has his voice and fingers in everything.

You can hear him singing in or he arranged the music for the big fireworks show at Disney.

He did many different jobs within the music department at Glee. His main job was vocal arranger.

He was the unsung behind the scenes hero.

Tim was there from the beginning.

He worked with the background singers arranging the vocals.

Adam Anders called Tim because he needed a vocal arranger.

The first song that Tim worked on was Rehab.

Someone else had been doing it before and sent 6 different versions to Ryan and he hated them all.

Adam and Tim would work all night putting the music together.

He created guide vocals for the actors to make it easier for them to learn the songs.

Kevin said the guide vocalists were so much better then them. They were studio singers. Well except for maybe Amber.

Kevin said it made him a better singer.

They had like 30 minutes to record a whole song.

Tim would be on set to make sure their voices matched up to the prerecorded song.

At the start of the show the cast would do the background vocals but that quickly changed. It took a long time to record a song and do the background vocals.

All the instrumental tracks were done over seas.

Tim would wake up and record himself doing all the parts of the group vocals. He loved doing this and he is quick at it.

He would get to the studio in Calabasas at around 11 and the other sings would come and they would work on guide vocals. They would then spend several hours doing group vocals. They would do one song a day. Sometimes the would spend the night working at the studio.

Paradise By The Dashboard Light took him 27 hours to do. It was rare for a song to take this long to put together.

Other days he would spend on set working with he cast.

Tim came up with color coded sheets for the cast. It made things so much easier for them. Kevin and Jenna still use this system.

Kevin can hear a song they did and will start doing the background vocals.

Tim would sing the background parts to help the cast learn them.

Tim was there for support and to make the cast look good. Jenna said this.

Tim trained them how to lip sync.

No one knew the background for My Love Is Your Love. Someone safety pinned their lyrics to Jenna’s back.

Tim did a lot of the movie musicals that came out after Glee.

Tim did the music cues on the show.

Tim would bring the cast Chick-fil-A. The cast loved him for it.

Tim said he was taken by the casts kindness, openness, and humility. He said they really wanted to learn and that they were doing their best. It was very heartwarming.

Don’t Stop was Tim’s first day on set.

On the call sheet it said Tim was the lip sync monitor.

He hadn’t spent much time on set before working on Glee.

He loved to ask people questions.

He asked Cory about his background within the first two weeks of working on the show. He said Cory was so opening and vulnerable.

He said Kevin and Jenna were consistent and easy to work with.

There were times Tim would pull over at night and just cry because he was so stressed. He said some people were difficult to work with.

Tim and Zach never complained or had attitude. They just did their jobs.

Kevin said Tim is warm and kind. It made it easy for them to open up to him. He said Tim is like a gigantic hug.

Kevin told a story about Tim coming into the booth to help him while he was recording the background on one of the songs for the first Christmas album. Kevin was a mess and Tim helped calm him down.

Tim has a degree in business. He was in paper sales and was terrible at it. He couldn’t sell something he didn’t believe in.

His first music gig was for a gospel choir.

He met his wife in the gospel group.

Spider-Man was the first movie Tim sang in when he moved to LA.

Tim worked with Nikki, Adam’s wife in Nashville.

Adam brought Tim into working on Glee.

Tim’s work life exploded during Glee.

Right after glee Jane Lynch asked him to go on tour with her and Kate Flannery.

Things bottomed out for Tim after Glee ended.

Tim said it is important in the entertainment industry is to diversify and try new things.

Bohemian Rhapsody and any other Queen song was hard for Tim. He wanted to get them correct. He didn’t want to dishonor the original arrangements or the band itself.

Welcome Christmas was important to Tim. It is sentimental for him. This was the song Kevin couldn’t do and Tim had to come into the booth to help him.

The Judy Garland inspired set in the second Christmas episode is one of Tim’s favorites.

Kevin wishes the guide vocal versions of the songs could be released.

Tim said Adam is an anomaly. Most music producers are instrumental arrangers and don’t know how to work with people.

When you find people that work at such a high level it makes you want to work harder to meet them at that level.

Tim said he cannot work with people that embrace mediocrity.

Jenna said they were lucky to work with people at the top of their game.

Jenna knew she would challenged going into the recording studio. She liked being challenged.

Tim’s least favorite song is…(He never answered the question.)

The feeling Glee left Tim with is gratitude. He is grateful that he got to use every tool in his tool box. It was challenging.

He grew so much because of Glee.

There will never be another Glee.

No one will spend that kind of money.

Tim worked with them on the tour.

Tim is the best.

Tim has a podcast.

I made @papabay 's Zelda design with a lot of my own tweaks.

I was in the Master's division(for the first time ever!) for MTAC and I won best wig because of the heavy rehab I had to do on a 6/7 year old wig. Unfortunately in these pictures you can't see the braids in the back

I also won first place in the Nashville cherry blossom festival cosplay competition which was very exciting for me! I made a full bow and arrow that I didn't actually take any good pictures of but that I'm very proud of.💖

Partial Hospitalization Program by Southeast Addiction Center TN

PHP treatment can help people to overcome addiction without having to stay in a rehab center full-time. If you struggle with addiction, this might be the type of treatment that works best for you. If you want to know – what is a partial hospitalization program? – before you begin treatment, we can discuss the details with you.

What is a Partial Hospitalization Program?

When finding the right addiction treatment program, there are many options that you will come across. One of those options is called PHP treatment or partial hospitalization program. Congress defines PHP treatment as an outpatient treatment program designed for diagnosing and treating serious mental health disorders. PHP treatment will diagnose and treat these disorders when there are reasonable expectations the person will improve their lifestyle after attending the program. If you want to turn your life around, reach out to our Nashville admissions coordinators and talk to them about partial hospitalization today.

Treatment That’s Affordable and Effective

There are millions of people who struggle with addiction. However,  people may find that inpatient treatment programs are more than they can afford. In these cases, professionals recommend that people enter PHP treatment or partial hospitalization. If you attend the PHP program at our Southeast Addiction Center, this will cost you much less than the typical inpatient treatment program. This automatically removes one of the biggest barriers that people face when trying to get clean and sober.

Getting a Structured Recovery Program

If you have an addiction to drugs or alcohol, PHP treatment is likely to help you overcome it. One of the best benefits of this type of treatment is that you will have a structured recovery program. While you won’t live full-time in the treatment center, you will have a treatment schedule that you need to abide by. Our treatment coordinators will discuss the details of this schedule with you. We will also help to ensure you have the most success from your PHP treatment program.

Beautiful, Relaxing Environment for Recovery

Many people think of an addiction treatment center and think of darkness and things being uncomfortable. However, that is not how we have our Southeast Addiction Center set up. When enrolling in our PHP treatment, you will have a beautiful environment that promotes relaxation and recovery. This way, you can overcome obstacles and move into a recovering lifestyle. 

Sleeping in Your Bed While Getting the Help You Need 

Many people don’t want to go to addiction treatment centers because they would rather live at home. They may be nervous about leaving their home. If you don’t want to leave your home while receiving PHP treatment, you don’t have to. Our PHP treatment program allows you to receive intense treatment in our facility, but you get to sleep at your own house. 

Longer Treatment Programs Means More Help in Recovery

PHP treatment programs allow people to attend a more extended recovery program than they might get with inpatient treatment. The more intense treatment program can set you up for more success and progress in your recovery. With individual therapy, group therapy, specialty treatment and dual-diagnosis treatment, you can continue getting the help needed to overcome your addictive lifestyle. 

Partial Hospitalization in Nashville Has Many Benefits for People with Addictions 

There are many great benefits you will receive when enrolling in PHP treatment or a partial hospitalization program. From the structured treatment to sleeping at home, you can create the recovering lifestyle you need and deserve. If you are struggling with an addiction to drugs or alcohol, this type of treatment could be the right option. Reach out to Southeast Addiction Center Tennessee for access our partial hospitalization program today.

Teen Mom star Ryan Edwards’ troubled girlfriend, Amanda Conner, has reportedly lost custody of her son due to neglect, her divorce papers from her second marriage claim. 

Ryan, 35, began dating Amanda, 33, over the summer of 2023 while the two were in rehab.

The U.S. Sun has exclusively obtained court documents from Amanda’s second divorce to her ex-husband Brandon Hancock. 

Amanda filed for divorce from Brandon on November 7, 2019. 

The court papers read, “The parties have irreconcilable differences which require termination of their marriage.”

Amanda and Brandon are parents to their son, Brandon Scott Hancock II, who was born in 2013 and is now 11 years old.

The court papers claim neither Amanda nor Brandon had custody of their son at the time of the divorce, as "said child is currently subject to a custody order in favor of the maternal grandfather.”

Amanda then filed a temporary parenting plan, where she noted that her father has custody of their son per a “Juvenile Court Order.”

The court papers include the Juvenile Court Order dated May 2014. 

The documents reveal Amanda’s dad, Jesse, was granted temporary custody of Brandon on January 31, 2014. 

Jesse’s wife, Lisa, was added as a co-petitioner. 

The document dated May 16, 2014 reads, “Mr. Conner testified the mother, Amanda Conner, was currently incarcerated in Nashville, Tennessee for a probation violation with her release expected in February 2015. 

“The father, Brandon Hancock, was currently incarcerated on a probation violation and has new matters pending in Hamilton County. 

“Paternal relatives have informed the father may be facing several years of incarceration.”

The court papers continued, “The court found said child dependent and neglected based upon both parents being incarcerated and leaving the child in Hamilton County without a legal guardian.

"Therefore, in the best interest of the child, the Court awarded legal custody of the petitioners.”

The mother and father’s parenting time is at the discretion of Lisa and Jesse. 

In February 2020, Amanda filed a Motion for Default Judgment, as she requested the judge grant the divorce without Brandon responding to her petition. 

An Affidavit of Witness was filed by an interested party who claimed, “I have known Brandon and Amanda for around 10 years and have witnessed the abuse and adultery from Brandon to Amanda. I agree with the divorce.”

At a May 19, 2020 court hearing, a judge found Brandon guilty of inappropriate marital conduct and granted the divorce. 

The parties were ordered the personal property in their possession and Amanda’s last name was restored to Conner. 

As for custody, the court is “without jurisdiction” to rule on custody of their son because of the juvenile court order. 

Amanda last posted her son on social media in May 2020. 

Amanda’s father, Jesse, died on September 28, 2021. 

Her mother, Lisa, posts and mentions Brandon on her social media. 

This is Amanda’s second divorce. 

The U.S. Sun previously reported Amanda was married in Florida in July 2010. 

Her then-husband filed for divorce just four months later. 

Their divorce was finalized in January 2011.

Cool Down:

Notes:

Even tho' Instagram Kayla was absent, we still had plenty of food to go around. It wasn't as fun tho'. I must admit.

Food:

Robert had excellent Chic Fil 'A delivered to the Barn. At first he tried to go cheap, but I made him realize there would be more than 5 people here to eat after the workout. The chicken Sandwiches were HUGE (they musta known it was Mr. Butler) and several of us cut them in half. Miss Linda brought Piggies in the blanket with spicy mustard and chips and hummus, and other chips and dips appeared.

Wines:

I couldn't count them. There were 2 whites, a Rose', 2 bubbly Prosecco's, and at least 6 reds. I didn't count the empties. Nobody was shit-faced.

We had a lovely new girl today. Cherrita (SP?) has had several years of CrossFit experience at CrossFit Mayhem, and at Power Monkey in Crossville. She also has extensive experience teaching Yoga. I have visions of her leading our mobility warmups. She works in Maryland Farms, so she should be a definite regular attendee at LHCF. We showed her our very best side (except that she missed out on Kayla) but even with all we have to offer people at the ONLY FREE AFFILIATE in Nashville, we know from experience that very few new people become "regulars". Somehow people seem to think that if something is free, it isn't worth anything. Is that Biblical? Yes, she got a T-shirt.

48 Hours ago we had a OPTIONAL Cool-Down that had 5 sets of 3 "Anyhow Dips". Today's WOD was a 9 Minute Couplet AMRAP that had the possibility of athletes doing Dips in excess of 100 total Dips. As usual, scaling and low motivation could protect the athlete from doing an excessively hurtful number of Dips. So imagine my consternation when a supposedly experienced CrossFitter actually complained that I had programmed Dips 2 workouts in a row. That was 48 hours ago. Apparently he only did 60 Dips today. Dana, a little girl, did about twice as many and didn't complain. Some people say I'm a "Grouch".....

I have been thinking that in order to keep my heart and mind pure and my eyes on heaven, I should assign a designated "Listener" so that pusillanimous CrossFitters could take their whiney-baby LHCF complaints to a wise and thoughtfully forgiving Father Figure. I'm nominating Herb. Maybe Ed ? Please put your nominations on the whiteboard at the Barn so I can quit being a "Grouch".

Saturday at 0730 and at 0930.

Meet Sadie

✦ ANNE HATHAWAY, CIS FEMALE, SHE/HER ✦ SADIE GAUTHIER the FOURTY year old has been in Hidehill for TEN YEARS. Whispers on the streets are that the OWNER OF BLOOMING TRAILS who lives in HARTLEY AVENUE  are said to be AMBITIOUS and OBSESSIVE but I guess we’ll find out for ourselves. { MANDY, 36, PST, SHE/HER }

full name: sadie louise gauthier gender and pronouns: cisfemale she/her age and dob: 40, November 12 1982 residence: hartley avenue time living in hidehill: 10 years occupation: owner of blooming trails faceclaim: Anne Hathaway positive attributes: ambitious, independent, protective negative attributes: obsessive, perfectionist, recovering alcoholic

BACKGROUND

The most consistant praise throughout Sadie's childhood was that she was such a well tempered, happy child. It seemed as if anger were an emotion she simply couldn't hold onto for more than a few fleeting moments. She slept through the night the day her parent's brought her home from the hospital, seemed to skip the terrible twos and threes stages that everyone warned about. Even the hormonal preteen and teen stages had been shockingly easy, growing pains and first heartbreaks lead to soft tears and her pouring her heart out to a safe place. But she was never angry. Tired yes, anxious, sad, lonely, annoyed...but never that anger that roiled in your belly, that made your body temperature rise. Her truest true love was botany, she was only five when her mother began letting her take control of the garden, her green thumb having made itself known. She could save a plant moments away from demise, could coax buds out of the most stubborn soil.

In college she met Levi, who seemed to be as unable to hold onto anger as she was. He was the epitome of a golden retreiver boyfriend, in school to become a veterinarian. The kindest, most genuine soul she'd ever known. They'd only been twenty-three when they got engaged, but Sadie had been so sure down to her bones that he was her forever person. Forever shattered three days before Thanksgiving, when the phone rang and ruined every future she'd ever hoped for. An attempted mugging, once of so many in New York City...but this one had ended with a knife slicing through arteries...with Levi's blood staining the sidewalk well before an ambulance could get there.

Sadie finally knew anger. An anger that ate pits into her spirit, that felt like it was rearranging her very bones. She'd always been a one glass of wine with dinner woman, but now she was wine...tequila...vodka slipped into her orange juice at work. Functioning sober hurt too badly and so she just stopped doing it. It took two years for the people around her to start realizing she was in trouble, to start fighting for her in a way she was not willing to fight for herself. At the time she hated them for it, wanted them to let her drink herself into oblivion. But when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, she finally went to rehab. It was a deal she made with god. Don't let her mother die and Sadie would be the best damn recovered alcoholic, the picture perfect of a person coming back from the edge. And damned if her mother didn't make it to remission a year later.

A relapse hit Sadie shortly after, and it took another year for her to admit she needed to go back to rehab. At 30 she realized that maintaining sobriety in New York was not a realistic option for her. She couldn't keep healing when she felt like she was living in the empty imprint of the life she was supposed to have with Levi. It didn't make sense...why Nashville of all places called her. Or maybe it did make sense...that the little town of hidehill, chugging along trying to shake off the darkness of it's past history would feel like the right place for her to reclaim a new future for herself. Blooming Trails became her pride and joy as she set up shop in the town, which was truly beginning to put itself on the map again when she was first settling in.

If she'd known that darkness and death was going to turn out to be inescapable maybe she would have just let the liquor have her. But these days she clings to the obsessive need to be the perfect recovered alcoholic no matter how badly the world around her is burning down.

ABOUT.

Name: Felix Rojas FC: Froy Gutierrez Gender & Pronouns: Cis Man | He/Him Sexuality: Bisexual Relationship Status: Single Age & Date of Birth: 25 years old | September 29th, 1998 Where Do They Live: Eastside Time Living In Nashville: 25 years (whole life/native) Occupation: Construction Worker Positive Traits: Kind, self-aware, hard-working, determined, strives for self-improvement Negative Traits: Doubts himself, reckless, impulsive, prone to fatalistic thinking

QUICK FACTS.

Felix has been sober for 9 months. He's able to be around alcohol in social settings, but is usually more comfortable in bars if he has a trusted friend with him.

He dropped out of high school but his goal is to get his GED, maybe go to community college.

In his teens and early twenties, Felix was involved in petty crime. He wasn't violent, but he'd break into places to steal money for drugs.

He's not particularly close with his family and feels rejected by them. They made sure he had a roof over his head and clothes on his back, but he never really felt loved by them.

CONNECTION IDEAS.

High school classmates (would have gone to school in Nashville).

Someone Felix's addiction has hurt in the past. Maybe someone he stole from, lied to, etc.

Friends.

Room mates.

People he used to drink/get high with.

Flings, exes, etc.

Someone he met on a job.

Met in rehab or a support group.

BACKGROUND.

TW: Death, Addiction, Parental Loss, Neglect, Drugs

Some people might say that the circumstances of Felix’s birth set him up for his life. His first look at the world was through a lens of the cocaine and amphetamines that induced his mother’s early labor. She picked a hell of a time to fall off the wagon. The doctors in the room were just relieved when Felix’s screaming, underdeveloped lungs filled the room with sound. The birth was rushed, messy, dangerous. His mother didn’t survive and Felix spent his first few weeks in the NICU. His father remarried when Felix was still young, had a bunch more children. Felix was raised by his father and step-mother, and while they did the best they could, they lived mostly on welfare and food stamps. Felix’s father treated him like a reminder of a reckless woman whose addiction had cost her life, and almost Felix’s, too. He was a reminder of failure and thousands upon thousands of dollars in hospital bills. He started acting out from a young age, staying out too late, sneaking beer and cigarettes from his parents’ house, money from their wallets. Petty theft and vandalism, casual marijuana use and drinking beer way too young eventually degenerated into addiction. There were times when Felix couldn’t remember waking up sober or going to sleep without downers. He couldn’t hold down a job or an education, and his trouble with the law started to become more serious when he didn’t have the excuse of being a minor any more. Felix just about managed to stay out of jail. His lawyer argued that his offences were non-violent and a result of his addiction; an illness. He was ordered to a rehab facility that felt worse than prison for a while, but it helped, even if it was hell. When he was released, his step-mom helped set him up with a job at his uncle’s construction company where he began to learn a trade. Now, Felix is trying to put his life back together and mend the mistakes of his past, all while attempting to find outlets that don’t consist of substance use.

He couldn’t hold down a job or an education, and his trouble with the law started to become more serious when he didn’t have the excuse of being a minor any more. Felix just about managed to stay out of jail. His lawyer argued that his offences were non-violent and a result of his addiction; an illness. He was ordered to a rehab facility that felt worse than prison for a while, but it helped, even if it was hell. When he was released, his step-mom helped set him up with a job at his uncle’s construction company where he began to learn a trade..

Now, Felix is trying to put his life back together and mend the mistakes of his past, all while attempting to find outlets that don’t consist of substance use.

Milwaukee Brewers-Minnesota Twins Series Preview

6.13.23-Corbin Burnes RHP (5-4) 3.36 ERA Vs. Pablo Lopez RHP (3-3) 4.25 ERA

6.14.23-Colin Rea RHP (3-3) 4.47 ERA Vs. Bailey Ober RHP (3-3) 2.61 ERA

The Brewers At A Glance- The Brewers have fallen on hard times with four straight losses. The A’s of all teams swept the Brewers at Miller Park over the weekend. The Brewers make their annual trip to Minneapolis for a quick two-game set. Owen Miller has been the team’s most consistent hitter with a .315 average and nineteen RBI’s. Andruw Monasterio has provided solid defense and a .273 average. Rowdy Tellez leads the power department with twelve homers. Jesse Winker has missed time with a neck injury, but is on a rehab assignment with Nashville. Tyrone Taylor has missed time with an elbow injury. Eric Lauer (shoulder), Wade Miley (lat), and Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) are all out at the moment. The Twins will face their best starter in Corbin Burnes on Tuesday. Julio Teheran is turning back the clock with a 1.48 ERA in 24 innings of work. The Milwaukee bullpen has a 4.17 ERA, which is twentieth in baseball. Closer Devin Williams has allowed just one run over 21 2/3 innings. Bryse Wilson and Joel Payamps have been solid relievers for the Brewers. 

The Twins At A Glance- The Twins had an odd road trip. They got swept by the Rays then took the first two from the Jays in dramatic fashion. The bullpen was depleted, so Emilio Pagan blew the game in the series finale. The Twins sit at (33-33) and return home with a 1.5 game lead in the Central. They will have a ten-game homestand to get right. Joey Gallo hit a home run on Sunday in his rehab assignment for the Saints. I’m thinking either Kyle Garlick or maybe Trevor Larnach will get optioned to St. Paul to make room. Byron Buxton could be back during this homestand. Kenta Maeda might make one more start for the Saints before returning. Caleb Thielbar was put back on the injured list with an oblique strain. Royce Lewis was 7-for-8 in the last two games in Toronto and is now hitting .317. Donovan Solano is hitting .313 in the month of June. The Twins need to get Jorge Lopez right. They only have Jhoan Duran, Griffin Jax, and Brock Stewart as very high leverage options. Jovani Moran has been used at times late in games with Caleb Thielbar out. Jose De Leon has been gaining more confidence from Rocco Baldelli as well. 

What To Watch For- The Brewers took three of four games from the Twins in 2022. They won the opener at Target Field then Jose Miranda hit the walk-off homer in the series finale. Milwaukee then won both games at Miller Park. Pablo Lopez is (1-1) with a 3.19 ERA in five starts against the Brewers. Corbin Burnes is (2-1) with a 2.45 ERA in four games versus the Twins. Colin Rea and Bailey Ober have not faced their opponents in their career. Tuesday’s match-up bodes well for Corbin Burnes, who will rack up some strikeouts against the Twins. The Twins have been striking out at a high rate and Burnes is a strikeout pitcher. The Twins should get some guys back during this homestand. This should be an interesting match-up of two teams in the playoff hunt.

Brainstorming. Before season four aired I had this idea for a fic (tentatively titled Crash & Flow) where Billy is an ex rocker who left his group to go solo due to artistic differences (aka everyone was blasted on drugs and they were starting to lean into xenophobic and homophobic bullshit that billy wasn’t down for). After a stint in rehab he moves down to Nashville to stay with Max and gets a menial job at a studio to pay the bills while he works on his album, exorcising his demons- instead of going to therapy Billy wrote some songs. Anyway the music isn’t flowing like it used to and Billy’s frustrated and secretly afraid (because who is he if not this and maybe Neil was right about him) which isn’t helped by the fact that he’s stuck cleaning up for these country music assholes who look down on him. At first Billy thinks Steve is like all the rest (albeit super hot) and is rude and standoffish to him, but he can’t help but keep watching - there’s something about him.

When Steve starts coming to the studio late at night Billy realizes Steve has a gift, and that he is lost too. Billy gets all thinky and meta about how lonely is the head that wears the crown, and gets his flow back. He becomes a little obsessed with watching Steve/writing lyrics about how America kills its darlings, feeling caged and ready to kill etc. It’s not long before he wants to fuck Steve’s shit up and bad, but he’s afraid of doing anything to ruin “the flow”. He’s gone all phantom of the opera on us.

Steve is in a popular pop/country duo with Nancy “King & Country” and they are like America’s sweethearts, and it was a love story for the ages - except behind the scenes they fell out of love ages ago but stay together because of the pressure. Steve struggles with depression, sexual confusion, and an increasing apathy for his music and life in general. But instead of going to therapy he seeks out new ways to get high. Dustin and everyone are very worried. He ends up at this bar one night in a sketchy part of town and it turns out to be an underground club for queer folk. Billy is playing there and Steve is really moved by the music and attracted to him. Recognizing him, Steve approaches him to talk about music, but Billy can spot a guy who wants some from a mile away and is like “do you wanna talk or fuck?” And they have some pretty nasty but thrilling sex in some place not nearly private enough.

Steve is hooked. Like this is the best high he’s ever had and if Billy could eat his soul he would. He pulls Steve down the rabbit hole of the wonderfully strange and wicked world of the 1980s queer punk rock scene, and he watches as Steve grows wings and sets fire to his ‘good boy’ image and the career that went along with it and Billy will do anything he can to keep fueling that fire (because he knows that when it goes out, Steve leaves and he’s alone again). He doesn’t realize that Steve thinks the same way, that Billy is only interested in deflowering America’s sweetheart and will be gone as soon as the thrill stops. So Steve keeps roping Billy into trying more dangerous and depraved shit (sex and drugs mostly) and they just become this codependent mess that results in gorgeous music. Poor Dustin and Max are pulling their hair out and trying to stop the train before the inevitable crash.

Haven’t worked out an ending yet… maybe they get their shit together and start learning healthier ways to cope. But I am leaning towards they have to go their separate ways, because when you’re that close to a situation and stuck in a cycle with someone, sometimes distance is the only thing that can save you. Any thoughts?
