*And people are wrong about urban myths. Logic and reason say that these are fictional creations, retold again and again by people who are hungry for evidence of weird coincidence, natural justice and so on. They aren’t. They keep on happening all the time, everywhere, as the stories bounce back and forth across the universe ... Urban myths are alive.

It started with that dead guy next door book but there has been a huge boom in 'book titles that make me think the love interest will be some type of Creature but it's just a boring dude who owns a small business or whatever. but there's also a Creature. peripherally.' *Chuck Tingle voice* Not pounded in the ass by the undead entity haunting my home because a) they are incorporeal and b) they are not the love interest probably because they're incorporeal and everyone wants their romance novels to be [spicy/insert whatever juvenile term we're using this week instead of just saying it has sex in it]. False advertising and cowardice.

booktok has caused years of irreversible damage on society but i’m not sure if we’re ready to talk about that yet.

"He’s one of the most important players in the league, one of our top guys... We follow him on the ice, and when he speaks in here, you know it’s important." - Mats Zuccarello

"It’s the way he comes to the rink every day — everyone feeds off it." - Jared Spurgeon

"If I walked out of the tunnel with that guy every night, he wouldn’t need to say a word." - Wes Walz

In a handshake line. Grip a crushing strength, almost enough to break his hand. Sweat beading on his tall nose, his icy eyes hot with grief. David snakes his arm up and clutches at Willy’s drenched hair, whispers, “I love you.”

No - further back. In a handshake line. Grip a crushing strength, nearly enough to break, certainly enough to hurt. Light eyes lidded to near darkness, that plush mouth flattened carefully to give nothing away. David brings his arm up, clutching at him.

Even further back - in a handshake line. Still young enough that the beard on Willy’s face is more of a suggestion. Still young enough Willy wears sorrow on his eyes and mouth like paint. David brings his arm up and -

Or maybe fast forward - David is holding his new wife, blindingly happy, smiling so wide his cheeks ache. Her sweet face pressed to his chest, his nose in her light hair - her eyes the blue of the sky spread out above them. The summer breeze feels like heaven on his skin. But he can’t help but feel - there’s a strange, small pit in his stomach, not quite an ache, more a memory of one. Like something’s missing.

He has never been more in love in his life. Has he? Well. Sometimes you say things when you’re a child, 17 and not knowing any better.

David whispers, “I love you.” Means it like he never has before.

i love how this one little idea turned into a much bigger thing!!!

honestly nico WOULD venmo quinn money, first because he felt bad and second because he is, also a menace.

in this universe nico would get the c and quinn the a and they actually have their little team conversations scheduled every friday afternoon (when they’re home). there are so many posts on their finstas about their team leadership meetings that have jack moping because he can SEE nico cooking for his brother who DOES NOT APPRECIATE it the way he should. also, how come quinn gets to photograph nico looking all soft and cuddly? and, seriously quinn, jack doesn’t talk about nico that often to be muted. the only way he gets a response now is through the group chat they have with luke.

i think he got nico’s number because jack got banged into the barriers a little too hard once and nico, knowing how much the hughes brothers love each other, dutifully updates jack and luke, reassures them that he doesn’t have a concussion or anything. first, he does it from quinn’s phone, but then he texts jack his number and whoa, it’s downhill from there on. they text so much, that nico’s screentime is up by 40% and he’s constantly asking quinn for a charger. quinn seriously has to ask himself if hockey is worth this (it is. also, he unfortunately loves his brothers and his best friend).

but then jack brings trevor over, only to ditch him immediately for his roommate. so now he has to watch as trevor eats him out of house and home AND he has to dodge the super obvious match making attempts they get up to.

he can’t believe luke’s the most normal out of them.

I love a good brainstorming sesh ❤️

love the idea of nico breaking rules but in like. a rule following way. Quinn gets a notification for a couple hundred bucks in his account and he sighs and tells nico "that wasn't the point" but nico is now all 🥺 but I do really feel bad 🥺 and now we're even 🥺 and Quinn's like "I've seen you make this exact face at a ref to try and get out of a penalty, don't even start."

they would be so responsible and have little side meetings together! very serious very earnest very leadership core of them. their friends and teammates comment about how cute they both are while jack seethes in silence in his dorm.

the beautiful irony that is quinn doing everything in his power to keep jack and nico separate if only because he's certain he will not know a moment of peace once those two realize their mutual interest in each other (his eldest sibling senses can feel it). for christmas he gifts nico a power bank and tells him he'll have to get glasses if he keeps this up. and then tells jack he better be studying instead of texting a boy or else he's going to flunk (I have a whole side assignment about Jack being one of those 'so smart he's bored in class and doesn't pay attention but still passes with flying colours' type of students)

I can imagine trevor isn't even being subtle about it he's sitting at quinn's counter eating chips right out of the family sized bag nagging him about his favourite colours and what he looks for in a guy and hey, your neighbour is really good looking, isn't he? Quinn then sends a venmo request to trevor for all the groceries he's eating.

smile that could light up the world 🌟 (he's down 0-4 half way through the first period. his head coach has just been kicked out the game. he's a man down.)
