#he also answers another mack question but thats for another day

[macktism]

nico sturm on his relationship with macklin celebrini. german transcript under cut.

rough english tl: (im tired)

q: how is your daily contact to him (macklin celebrini)? you're stanley cup champion, you're a veteran in the team, does he come to you, or do you go to him and say, "hey mack, sure, ice hockey wise i don't need to tell you anything, but you should do something or other different, maybe."?

a: yeah, exactly. i think on the ice maybe he can possibly teach me one or two things, but i think the- the things outside of the ice. (doesn't finish his sentence) um, recently he had a, a situation, um, i think in, um, detroit, if i remember correctly in the second-third pause or right before the start, he sat next to me in the room, in detroit, and he looked a little, let's say, crushed because he had the feeling, that offensively nothing was happening for him in game, and i told him, that in such a season with 82 games, that in one of them you're going to feel like nothing's happening for 50 minutes and then you get an opportunity, and then - and you are too good of a player to not get this opportunity, this opportunity will always come for you in a game - you need to simply have patience. and in the very first shift in the third period he had an outstanding pass to- to ekky backdoor, and- and ekky scores. and then he came back to the bench and just kinda winked at me (smiled with his eyes) and i smiled back at him. these are just the small things, um, that- that i think help a young player enormously, and it's an incredible amount of fun to work with him.

q: wie ist ihr contact zu ihn (macklin celebrini)? der tägliche umgang? weil, sie sind stanley cup champion, sie sind ein veteran in der mannschaft, kommt er zu ihn, oder gehen sie zu ihn hin und sagen, "hey mack. also klar, eishockey mäßig brauch' ich nichts erzählen, aber so und so, vielleicht, solltest du das anders machen."

a: ja, genau. ich glaub' auf'm eis kann er vielleicht mir sogar ein zwei sachen beibringen, aber ich glaub' so die- die sachen außerhalb vom eis. ähm, letztens hatte er so 'ne, so 'ne situation, äh, das war glaub' ich in, äh, detroit (schwer zu hören, "wenn ich mich nicht falsch erinner'"?) in der zweiten-dritten pause oder kurz for start, saß er neben mir in der kabine, in detroit, und er sah ein bisschen, sag mal, geknickt aus, weil er so das gefühl hatte, so offensiv passiert für ihn nichts im spiel. und ich hab' ihn gesagt, in so 'ner saison mit zweiundachtzig spielen, dass es eins von denen spielen [geben wird] wo du fühlst es passiert fünfzig minuten gar nichts und dann bekommst du die eine möglichkeit und dann - und du bist zu guter spieler dass du diese möglichkeit nicht bekommst, die eine möglichkeit kommt für dich immer im spiel - du musst einfach geduld haben. und im aller ersten wechsel, wo er hat im dritten drittel macht er ein'n überragenden pass zu- zu ekky backdoor, und- und ekky trifft. und er kam nur zurück zur bank und hat mich nur so angezwinkert, und ich hab' ihn nur zurück angelacht. das sind halt so kleinigkeiten, ahm, die- die glaub' ich schon so 'nen jungen spieler enorm helfen, und es macht unglaublich viel spaß mit ihn zu arbeiten.

You’re into theme parks? Oh boy my best mate would love you he’s mad about them. I know so much about U.K. theme parks and it’s all against my will. Worth noting I have a crippling fear of rollercoasters so I have no idea how we somehow ended up together 💀 but the technical knowledge is really impressive!

Feel free to use this ask as a free space if you want to yap about theme parks. (Favourite park, favourite ride… idk, whatever questions I should be asking lol) :)

the thoosies are everywhere..

NO GENUINELY THOUGH @afriendofblahaj is gonna be the same in no time LOL

ramblings on an insane girl below

i'm assuming he's talked about the state of merlin at the moment? it's horrendous, entertainment is VITAL to a theme park, it's part of what makes it a complete themed experience and not just a park with rides in it, to think all that streetmosphere and those actors (namely at alton towers) that have just pushed my day there to be that much better have lost their jobs, the park is gonna feel empty.. coasters i dont know quite as much on but i know all you'd expect - your intamins from your macks your GCIs from your RMCs. id say mack is my favourite manufacturer, i love their innovation and variety. if walt disney were alive today i honestly think hed be inclined to work for them/europa park, also my favourite park in the world i cant wait to go back <3 i realise im kind of answering all these questions but i appreciate it :)

i think id have to say hyperia is my favourite coaster, although i do really adore shambhala, it's between them. okay i dont have a favourite but i have a top three: hyperia, shambhala and velocicoaster. i think thats a kind of basic bitch answer but oh well, they're all amazing :) honestly i feel like i underrate velocicoaster, i remember going on it for the first time and that second launch hit me like a TRUCK. oh my GOD you don't see it coming, it's already intense then BAM. and that mosasaurus roll.. oh my god i've never felt G Forces quite like it. i'd love to get back on. hyperia's much closer to home, we're so lucky to have such a marvel in our country. the feeling of gliding is phenomenal and for me can only be compared to shambhala, but i'd say hyperia tops it because of those inversions. there's such a weightlessness yet simultaneous weight it's amazing?? i do wish it were longer but it's a fantastic ride. all 3 of these make AMAZING night rides and the ones i've had on all three have turned out to make incredible memories. another i'm quite a fan of is WODAN. now this one is ROUGH but oh my days i love it, it's a similar feeling to velocicoaster where its pace just doesn't slow and it pulls you around every turn and drop with such an intense force. i'm not usually a fan of woodies but i just adore that one, i think it has fairly stellar theming too. i can't wait to get on stardust racers some day, i think that's probably gonna make my favourites because it looks PHENOMENAL. the duelling too UGH. universal TAKE MY MONEY!! make a wicked land pretty please. with a cherry on top. shiz university i beg, i see mostly people suggesting emerald city but imagine SHIZ. boat ride NOW. "uhh bit its for 8 year old girls" AND THE 8 YEAR OLD GIRLS WOULD BE PAYING UP!! ITS ME, IM THE ONE YOU WANT, ITS ME!!! IM THE 8 YEAR OLD GIRLS!!! also no, a defying gravity roller coaster would be dog shit, like theyre just not going to do that are they? this is an ip that appeals mostly to children, theyre just not gonna build a massive roller coaster for it are they? its probably gonna be a show an e ticket and a flat ride or two with some streetmosphere and themed food and probably meet and greets as we've already seen with the experiences. i think wicked has been successful enough and universal seem to be considering it, quote "this needs to be a theme park". although, it wouldn't be a theme park it'd be a theme park land. i feel like the gp really need to brush up on their terminology it bothers me. anyway back to favourite rides, like i have favourite coasters but rides? god. oaky i'm tempted to say it's a small world purely for nostalgia factor. i'm stumped on a favourite ride, it'd probably just be my favourite coasters again. navi river journey is another one, i really like slow moving boat dark rides i dont know if you can tell. i feel at peace in the nature and i NEED a similar attraction for wicked. maybe i'm crazy but i think hagrid's is overrated but that's definitely up there. i dont know it just didnt really wow me as much as it did for other people, although i did have a meltdown in the queue so that probably didn't help. hm, i guess hagrid's yeah! i honestly think it'd probably be a ride either in fantasy springs or epic if i could get to them. i'm tempted to say monsters unchained would be my fav. battle at the ministry maybe or hell even mario kart!! people shit on MK WAY too much!! it's a GOOD ride and the AR is fine imo

anyways i need to shut up LOL

don't worry about rollercoasters too much, work your way up! i imagine your friend would be happy to go on a day trip to thorpe or alton or whichever park is local to you! start small and go up, sure they look scary but they're not too bad when you're on them! just let go and trust the ride, it will be okay. if you do this you'll probably just end up having a ton of fun :) it's all just about trust

“I'm just a Broadway Baby, walking off my tired feet, Pounding Forty Second Street to be in a show. Broadway Baby, learning how to sing and dance, waiting for that one big chance to be in a show.” - Cast of follies

Life can be hard and some days can be rough, especially in your line of work where people competed for the spotlight on a daily basis. but that's life and that’s the road you chose to walk through.  And it's alright, after all, what's life without a spark? A movie without a breaking point? or a shift at Clayton's without drama?

This was one of these days, the kind of days who kept you on an edge as your body and mind both ached for a break.

'Just roll with it. just a few hours for your day off.' You silently said to yourself.

Being a young artist in New York was a challenge you’ve taken on yourself, luckily for you working at "Clayton's" was a good way to start a career.  most people who started working there were young talented artist who were determined to make an impression over the industry. The place was always packed with many famous people, from actors to singers and producers. So, in many ways, working in "Clayton's" could be a ticket to Broadway or the music industry. And that was the reason you moved there in the first place.

You tried the traditional way, but after months of trying to get into college and fix your past mistakes, like your high school career, you decided that this path wasn’t for you. no matter what you did or how hard you tried your ADHD still managed to kick your ass. So, that’s how you ended up as a singing waitress in NY. You liked your job, truly. You liked singing and dancing and meeting cool people along the way, but sometimes it was just too much.

"You look like shit" Aaron said from his spot at the bar.

Aaron was a sweet guy and probably the only straight person in your group of friends. He was charming and talented and most importantly; he was the first friend you got in NY.

Aaron pulled his long brown hair into a bun as he chuckled at you. You huffed in frustration in return.

"Thanks" you muttered as he passes you a mug with coffee, hoping to help you get a grip before the restaurant opens.

"You need to rest" he said. "properly" 

"that’s overrated" you joked and took a sip.

You felt an hand on your shoulder and you turned around to meet your friend's stern gaze. "You, okay?" she asked

"Always" you answered Mackenzie's question and she raised her eyebrow, knowing full well you were lying. 

"we should sing as a warm up!" David, another one of your coworkers and Aaron's twin brother said.

"Let's not" Aaron said as he rolled his eyes at his brother's enthusiasm. 

You laughed quietly as the two started bickering. Mack and you glanced at each other knowingly. Both of you already know who will win in the stupid argument.

15 minutes later, after a group warm up and Aaron's dramatic sighs 'Clayton's' was open for business.

It was a nice evening, not too full, not too loud. And most importantly, not too many known faces.

Of course, you liked to have famous people on your shifts, and it could obviously be a game changer for you but it can get intense at times and you want in the mood. Seriously, how can you be the only one who found singing "defying gravity' in font of Idina Menzel as a very stressful experience?? You were terrified by the idea you'll fuck up in front of the original singer- and make a total fool out of yourself. 

When 10 pm rolled around, every opinion you had about the evening flew out the window. at this point, the restaurant was full with costumers and some known faces as well, and you found yourself holding every inch of you together as you approach the table who was occupied by the one and only Meryl Streep, and some fellow little women cast members.  

 *rule number 1 of working at Clayton's: don't make costumers feel uncomfortable. Don't annoy the costumers, don't ask for autographs if they're famous and generally treat them as normal and respectfully as you can. *

 "Hello, my name is Y/N and ill be your waitress for tonight" you introduced yourself with a small smile. The women smiled at you brightly.

"How does it work" Meryl held the tablet with a puzzled expression. "Am I that old?" She joked

"Barley" One of the other women, Emma fucking Watson, said. 

"I know it looks complicated-" you told them as you took the tablet from Meryl's hand."-But it's pretty simple, actually, I promise. As you can see the top part of the tablet is divided into two sections: The right one who says 'ask for a waiter'- which means that your waiter- which in this case, me, is busy- probably performing at the moment, and you can ask for a different waiter." You said with an ease, knowing the explanation by heart.

"The left section says 'ask for my waiter' which is a pretty simple one to understand... I guess- if you'll need me for whatever reason, you can press it and it'll page me. Feel free to use it."  You said with a smile as you scanned their faces, making sure they understand the first part.

"And the bottom section?" Saoirse asked. 

"The bottom section is the 'refill' sections. It will get into validation only after ill place your order in my own tablet and send to the kitchen." You explained as you gestured to your own tablet. "It's pretty useful, the point of it is that you can ask for a refill without having to social with me. Its awesome"

You noticed one of them, Florence pugh, scanning the tablet with a small smile- as she listened to your explanation. She was absolutely a sight for sore eyes, that's for sure.

"Thats pretty cool" she said and you nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, I got really excited over it when I started working here" you admitted awkwardly "most importantly- When a section isn't relevant its will be grey instead of in color so you won't get confused. Like, for example - if You haven't ordered anything yet you can't get a refill, for the obvious reason. or if I'm not performing you can't ask for another waiter... which means you're stuck with me for the time being" you finished with a small chuckle.

"I don't think any of us mind that" Florence smiled and the others agreed. The blonde smiled at you again and you blushed slightly. "You're singing, right?" she asked out of the blue, just when you were about to leave and let them look through their menus. 

"Yeah, i do. In a few minutes, actually" 

"Thats cool! Good luck" she smiled and you wondered if Emma, who set the closest to you, could hear how fast your heart's beating. 

"Thank you" you said with a smile and turned around to the stage. 

__________________

"you paged? I'm guessing you guys ready to order then" You said as you approached their table after your performance. 

"YOU WERE SO GODD!" Florence said excitedly.

"Thank you" you blushed slightly. 

What. The. Fuck. Y/N?! You scolded yourself.

The others joined into the conversation with their own compliments and you thought you'd die when Meryl Streep, the legend herself, complimented you.

After another few moments the conversation calmed downed and moved to the next, and most important topic: the food. You tried your best to not blush under Florence's soft gaze and keep your focus on the other members of her table as they consulted you about the dishes, but damn, that was hard.  luckily for you it didn’t take long and a few minutes later, their order was sent to the kitchen. 

 The next hour and a half weren't much different. you sang and placed orders, you smiled to costumers and even pretend to laugh at some old man's joke. And maybe (just maybe) you glanced over to Florence every now and then.

The thing about Clayton's is that apart for the famous people who visit there frequently, it also contains many of the rich and the snobs of New York, so you weren't surprised when you got paged from a table who was occupied by two guys with fancy clothes and their parents credit card.

"Hey" one of them said to you as you approached them. 

"hey, welcome to Clayton's! You're David's table, right?" You said and pointed at your friend who started his own performance.

"Yeah, the fag one" the other guy said and your smile fell.

Take a deep breath, Y/N. It's not worth it. 

"I see you guys already ordered a few minutes ago" you said as you checked your tablet.

"Yeah" the asshole confirmed. 

"Okay, in that case, how can I help you?" You asked politely as you could. 

"we would like to get the check." The first guy said politely as he pulled out a few bills from his wallet. "Keep the change" he said as you took it and made sure it was enough.

"Thank you" you smiled politely and made a mental note to give David his well-earned tip.

"my brother want to know if you're single" the asshole said and the nicer guy looked at his with his eyes wide.

Shit.

"I'm sorry, I'm in a relationship" you lied after a moment, hoping the lie will spare both his feeling and any more questions in the subject.

The guy nodded in understanding but on the other hand, the other guy didn’t seem to get the massage.  

"I'm sure he won't mind sharing" the asshole said and you felt sorry for the poor guy for being related to this ass.

"What the fuck Chad" the nice guy said as chad smirked at you.

"yeah... that’s not going to happen." You glared at him "have a great weekend tho" you gritted out and turned around to leave.

you were taken by surprise when you felt chad's hand on your ass. Again, what the fuck?!

"What the fuck is wrong with you' asshole" you gritted out and moved away from him. 

Don't make a scene. He's not worth it. 

"C'mon-" he started to say as he got up. You moved away, knowing you were cornered since the place was full, the lights were deemed and the music was loud. 

"Don't touch me" you said and moved away; you're back hitting an empty table who stood nearly.

"Hey what's going on here?" You heard and turned to catch Florence walking to you.

If a look could kill chad would’ve been dead. that’s for sure. It's like the sweet and excited Florence had left and a different, intimidating (and hot) version of her took her space and so help you god, you were glad she was on your side.

"Nothing! we were just leaving, really" Frankie said.

"None of your business" brad said and Florence raised her perfectly shaped eyebrow, daring him to cross her.

"I see" she said "well, I'm sure y/n won't mind my intruding" 

'Thank god for Florence Pugh.' You thought.

Before chad could press the subject any further David, who just finished his performance, got there. You were sure he noticed that something was happening.

"what's going on here?" he asked after he scanned the situation quickly.

"nothing as I said to your friend, we were just leaving" Frankie said again. 

he didn’t want to draw any negative attention, just like you, and thankfully for the both of you, not many people noticed the situation.

This time chad didn't answer, he just glared at Florence and you while his brother pulled him away from the place.

"so, are you going to tell me what happened?" David asked Florence and you after the two left.

Florence looked at you, waiting for you to answer him. 

"Nothing" you lied. "it's okay David, you can go" you promised your friend. David looked at you with his 'I done believe you' expression, but he didn't press it any further. He just nodded before he turned around and left. 

 Rule number 2: do not make a scene under no circumstances. At Clayton's, everything you do while you're on the clock is practically showcased. You slip? you fall? you sing out of tune? Its under a spotlight, everyone can see that and everyone will have something to say about it. Thats the thing about this place.  most people who started there and moved on to bigger things as Broadway or Hollywood were practically trained to keep their best poker face, act on the demand or pretend that everything is okay when it was clearly not. 

 "You should go back to your table" you said to Florence 

she looked at you with an unreadable expression before she went back to her table. You didn't have much time to read into it since a few minutes later you found yourself at her table, printing their check and having a small friendly conversation with the women. You smiled at them as they left before you turned your tablet off and went to cover for Aaron at the bar.

 "I thought you guys left" You said with a smile when the blonde approached you a few minutes later. 

"Why did you lie?" Florence asked with the same unreadable expression from earlier.

Okay. No smiling then.

"I didn’t" you pulled out two shot glasses and filled them with tequila. The blonde gave you a 'are you kidding me' kind of look and you couldn't help but to chuckle. "I didn't see a reason to make a scene over nothing" you explained and downed one of the shots.

"It wasn't nothing Y/N" she said before taking the other glass. 

"its fine. I'm fine. He didn’t do anything " you said as she downed her shot.

"Yeah, because I was there" she argued.

"I can handle guys like him. Seriously, at this point it might as well be a part of my job" 

"you're not helping yourself"

"I liked you better smiling" you chuckled as she glared at you.

"I'm sure you did"

"shut up" 

"How's your back?" She asked/

The blonde definitely didn't seem convinced about the chad situation but you were just grateful for the change of subject.

"It will be alright"

"Good"

"I appreciate your worry, truly. But I'm fine and I really don't want to hold you back here over it" you said  

"Who said I was worried" she smirked at you with a raised eyebrow.

"Uh, you don't?" You played along 

"Nope"

"Then why are you still here? Its almost 12 am, don't you have something better to do" you teased her 

"no. Do you?" She turned the question and you laughed. 

"I guess not - considering the fact I work here and I'm still on clock"

"Oh, please we both know this place is about to close" she argued your logic

"True" you admitted

"So, if you have nothing better to do, and you don't, would you like to go out with me? You kinda owe me after I saved your ass earlier"

"Uh, and here I thought you did that as an act of kindness" you joked. A small smile playing on your lips.

"Ew no" she said and You laughed. "Well?" Florence pressed with a cheeky smile.

"Yeah, why not. It's not like I have something better to do" 

"Just what I wanted to hear" she joked.

reuenthals replied to your post: reuenthals replied to your post: ...

in the folder re: konhiji like we’re not told how old toshi was when he met kondo but probably a teenager considerin sougo was 6-8 so i always thought toshi’d place kondo in a place similar to tamegoro but misunderstand those feelins as smth else bc he’s just a baby + kondou’s the first to show him real (or any) affection outside tamegoro n not fear or resent him in any way but actually want to help him (he later in life realizes hed just misplaced/misunderstood their 

nature). from that same era, i think his feelins for mitsuba would fit a similar narrative as in bc of circumstances she HAD to be the woman he loved bc all men must love a woman plus she had feelins for him (tho tbh i also dont think hers were any different from the familial love she had for kondou and it was also a matter of circumstance but thats another matter) so it was a done deal but still easy to leave behind for a new life n have as backup/excuse for any other

woman hed meet or more like a shield from havin to open up w/unravel to any feelins of love of a non familial nature for anyone. his take on love is rly naive n pure (contrasted to ofc my baby whos smart n no fool) bc it also serves as shield n hes also said to be unable to relate/open up to women multiple times but is defenseless towards men (n sorachi loves that trope esp w toshi n gin chan in which theyre ‘men that are more attractive to other men than women’) which

i think is why hes so well defenseless towards gin chan durin their duel in the rooftops like for gin chan thats just a ‘crazy cop attacked me again’ moment but for toshi it like shakes the foundations of his whole bein he like lies there all wistful like wtf…..im gay? no… w a blossomin crush that only gets worse the more he interacts w gin chan (cant blame him tho gin chan is an angel) but like the way hes constructed specifically as an archetype hes too set in

performin masculinity (kyuchan says this but he also says this abt himself also multiple times) n sorachi is aware to an extent (plus hes drawin from men who were practicin mlm themselves) what this trope entails wrt sexuality n its expressions like for toshi its comfortable not to think abt love or any of that bc he has a goal n the excuse of a dead woman but its impossible to read him as anythin but not straight no matter the degree to which he is aware of it (which

tbh i think its a lot more than what ppl in fandom give him credit for) i have more detailed backed up analysis of this somewhere but i cant find them but basically at the end of the day i think toshi meetin kondo n at least havin some mixed up feelins abt what he feels towards him that hes able to resolve as bein brotherly later on in life set the path for him realizin he can love other men not in a brotherly way n in the way he (as a man) is supposed to love women

wow long but yes like toshi’s archetype in other manga/literature is easily read n can be coded as mlm/gay n is often the case but his issues run too deep for him to even consider that part seriously (at least tbh until 551 maybe baragaki but i dont think that early) so he has to suffer for it he deserves the worst the only reason gh is okay is bc he provides economically for gin chan n would be willin to pay any outstandin debts as shown in the soul switch arc. the end

i feel like this was just a sneak peek into that folder, but I loved it 200%! it’s super hard for me to reply without going into my own headcanons about gh and how they relate to one another, cause the way toshi relates to gin is so different from kondo in my perspective; in fact, it’s why i can’t get romantic konhiji at all, though i admit you make a fair point when u address the transition of toshi’s “most important person” from tamegoro to kondo (at that young age mixed feelings would be acceptable) plus, i always saw kondo as the character that ‘saved’ toshi, while gin was the one that ‘healed’ him. ofc both relationships go way beyond these dynamics, but without any actual canon romantic proof it’s difficult to postulate from toshi’s limited pov. 

so, while the shinsengumi became his substitute family and kondo tamegoro’s substitute (the family core), it’s a given that toshi perceives this love as unconditional, would-die-for etc. however, it would be interesting to explore his feelings for kondo back then in relation to mitsuba; like in an effort to answer the love of a woman (as you so brilliantly put, that in those circumstances toshi HAD to love a woman) he tried to shift his romantic feelings/attraction to kondo’s masculine figure to her ? (IM ONLY  REALIZING NOW THAT THIS WAS PROBABLY WHAT YOU MEANT BEFORE? IM SORRY) tho i don’t agree that mitsuba’s love for him was familial cause ponytail toshi, mack, like pls, she had to be blind ???

then we come to ginchan, whose whole relationship with toshi is based, imo, in the fact that they not only see a part of themselves in each other (the guilty, self-hating, rebel part) but that in seeing it they understand themselves better and are able to open up, share their experiences and encourage one another; not to mention protect what’s dear to them. aka they love each other. there is literally no other explanation for ginchan waiting in the rain for toshi so they could go out for a meal? i mean, sakata gintoki sat in the rain, under his umbrella, looking all complacent & shit. ALRIGHT. 

btw i bolded some of your bits cause i rly relate to them in the way i see toshi, especially the ones about him putting up a shield. toshi has always had problems dealing with his feelings, even before we knew of his past with his brother (which for continuity’s sake was probably what triggered him to bottle  everything up), he had always been written/regarded as a cold, level-headed character who doesn’t let emotions get the best of him. his rank in the shinsengumi further emphasizing this (and his otaku persona as well). so, without disregarding ginchan’s merits, i think that kondo’s influence (and even mitsuba’s to some extent) may have contributed to lowering toshi’s shield enough that he was able to give himself a chance to connect with someone outside his comfort zone/past. the fact that that person happened to be a man only makes more sense given his background and the hints that tell us he was never able to relate to women or feel like he could make them happy. it’s Tough on my heart to say that ginchan is basically ideal because, even though he is the mc, it’s like he was made to play that role in toshi’s life. he doesn’t bring all the answers but rather more questions cause there’s no way toshi can be confused now because his attraction to ginchan cant be excused with the role of ‘brother’ or ‘fated woman he was supposed to love’, gh bond is their own, their closeness in canon SHOULD raise suspicion cause it sure doesn’t seem straight.

well, i digressed WAY more than i should, but yeah that’s it, kudos on that folder.
