#how many cats were exposed to their loveydovey-ness and just went jfc

[ratatatastic]

you dont think it gets worse until you listen to senkos first presser held as a cat and then you cry again like youve stopped crying in the first place lmao

"Aaron Ekblad just said you skate here in the summer with the guys. Do you feel like you kind-of know them a little bit? Not only playing against them so many times, but just working out here in the offseason?" "Yeah, I knew some guys from the summers. I knew some guys from way long ago like Bob, and Niko Mikkola. They were always joking to me to come join them so it finally happened... And even in the summer when we skated here it seemed like a good group of guys. I'm excited to be a part of it."

"they were always joking to me to come join them so it finally happened" THE WAY HE HUFFS A LITTLE LAUGH AND CANT HELP SMILING THINKING ABOUT IT ABOUT ALL THE TIMES BOBBY AND MIKKSY MUSTVE ANNOYED HIM ABOUT IT

to know mikksy and bob were manifesting this so hard... they are nothing but teenage girls going wish you were here <3 while theyre in completely different countries GOD

to ALSO know on mikksy senko calls/texts this is what that goof was doing... going come join me here in florida like im gonna be sick SICK I TELL YOU RECRUITING HIS CRUSH AND IT ACTUALLY FUCKING WORKED WHAT IS THIS

"Skating around with Niko...How much—Did you talk to him before things? Or anything like that? He's only been here a year, but you guys have obviously been together for a while." "Yeah, I talked to him after games, and he just shared his thoughts on the group—How good the group is and how much he enjoys his time here. We played together in St. Louis for like 4 years...I was happy to see him again this morning."

youre telling me mikksy and senko kept up regular correspondence after games and mikksy just kept splurging about how much he loved his new fambily and his new home to senko...he was new to the cats and he still did that...

"i was happy to see him again this morning :)" being run over by a 18 wheeler would literally be less painful than this

also senkos lips twitch the second george richards says "niko" like he was poised to say something but waited until he finished his question and i think thats something we should talk about

philadelphia flyers @ florida panthers pregame interview | 3.7.24 (x)

very obvious how much they enjoyed sharing ice again during morning skate the yearning was so palpable how i keep finding footage of it is genuinely beyond me (x)

GIRL STOP LOOKING AT HIM AND SMILING YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF PRACTISE

senko is also not immune to mikksy "i was happy to see him again this morning" yeah no i couldnt surmise that at all it actually wasnt supremely obvious from the way you find excuses to touch him

you can just tell the minute he sees mikksy in his vicinity hes already made up his mind to go over to him like he cant keep fighting the magnets stuck in his jersey that makes him float over to mikksy...

patting his elbow in encouragement during drills....looking back in longing desire...girls we are in public can we tone it down you are at an 11 i need you to take it down to a 2 🫳

and may we find each other again just like we did before
