#johnny skittles

[fereldancore]

I don’t blog about sports, but early this morning my favourite athlete Johnny ‘Hockey’ Gaudreau was knocked off his bicycle and killed along with his younger brother the night before their sister’s wedding. He had just turned 31 years old, married his next door neighbour and had a toddler daughter and a 6 month old son (who were planned to be flower girl and ring bearer at the wedding).

I adored Johnny because he was a such a small streak of lightning in a game full of huge dudes who were regularly a whole foot taller than him. His skills were just fucking phenomenal and he was so exciting to watch. I screamed with joy and cheered him on so loudly I lost my voice on many occasions. He represented his country for International Competitions and is the highest US point scorer.

I could get technical and talk about my favourite goals of his, his stickhandling, dangles, on ice spatial awareness etc but it is all on film for anyone to see, just too much to choose from. Nobody moved like Johnny Hockey.

As a person he was a sweet, kind guy who was universally liked in the sport and beyond. I do not follow celebrities on social media, but on hockey forums there are endless stories of his voracious love of mac and cheese (so much so Kraft put him in a TV ad) and skittles candies that he had a hockey stick covered in them and auctioned for charity.

In interviews he always talked hockey and his family. Whenever asked about new contracts and paycheques he would just shrug and say ‘yeah I bought my dad a boat so we can go fishing’ or ‘I just got a cool new wheelchair lift installed in my holiday home so my cousin can come and spend time with me’, or change the subject and talk about his dog, his wife and kids or The Birds. He was a real gem of a gentleman, modest and always ready to give credit to his team and dad (legendary NJ coach Guy Gaudreau) who motivated Johnny to skate as a toddler by placing skittles candies on the ice for him to fetch.

I’m am so sad for him, his family. This is just a blurb of feels about someone I counted down the days for until I could see them make magic on ice. I wish I could write a good tribute, dammit. Thank you Johnny Hockey.

Matthew had the idea of paying tribute to Johnny by his team mates bringing purple gatorade and skittles to the arena tonight. 💜

[21kmoonz]

Robby: I really like Eminem. Johnny : I prefer skittles. Daniel: He’s talking about the rapper. Johnny : Why would he eat the wrapper?

[what-if-nct]

What NCT's cum taste like.

Johnny: Battery acid, straight battery acid. Will actually sting your lips. Do not swallow for your own well being.

Taeyong: Straight sugar, it skips right past tasting salty to tasting like sugar, specifically powdered sugar.

Yuta: Cocaine, he doesn't even do cocaine but like it just tastes like a hard drug. Do not go back for more.

Kun: Lemon San Pellegrino, extremely hydrated close to having no taste but he likes his fancy water.

Doyoung: You know the way a doctor's office smells, just extremely clean and sterile with a hint of the older doctor's cologne, Yeah that's what it tastes like.

Ten: Tropical fruit punch, he drunk his pineapple juice he knows what to do.

Jaehyun: Battery Acid part two, but it burns the back of your throat and your coughing for air and you want to smack him for asking you to swallow that.

Winwin: Nothing with a hint of blueberry and menthol, hydrated but not enough, you can still taste his habits.

Jungwoo: Candy, jolly ranchers, starbursts, Skittles, blow pops, he's more high fructose corn syrup than man.

Mark: watermelon and hot pockets, no explanation needed.

Xiaojun: Mint, just like straight peppermint oil, it's like you gave a candy cane a blow job

Hendery: Fresh homemade lasagna, and he says it's me Mario when he climax's

Renjun: Sparkling water, lemons, berries, beauty and talent. You should thank him for it.

Jeno: Cheese, specifically canned cheese and flat diet Pepsi.

Haechan: Sour patch kids, need I say more.

Jaemin: Straight black coffee.

Yangyang: Monster, Red Bull, and a blue raspberry vape

Chenle: Hot unfiltered tap water, it's literally boiling hot, call a doctor.

Jisung: Balloons, cause he's still wearing the condom and is afraid to take it off.

In Memory of Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau

Ever since seeing the devastating news yesterday afternoon while at work, I've been thinking of what the right words are in a situation as hopeless as this. There is no return button, no undo.

A family, a community left with empty spots. All the circumstances make it only sadder and more tragic.

There are no right words, but there are tokens of hope, showing up and lighting a candle in memory and remembrance for not only two incredible hockey players but humans.

When I was a little tween hockey fan, I really liked the Calgary Flames. Mostly because they drafted a Swiss guy 1st round, but they had many other young prospects, Johnny being probably the brightest. But as for many, it was his character that impressed me most, a Skittle loving child-at-heart guy that left it all on the ice. I will always remember how disappointed he was when they did not allow him to do a stunt with a burning stick at the All-Star Game.

May Johnny and Matthew rest in peace. And may we think of their family and of all families that have lost loved ones in this tragic way.

❤️‍🩹

Picture this: The Marauders + Slytherin Skittles get sent to an American rural high school as a protection program from the war. They have to pretend to be muggles and know nothing about American farming culture.

They form an alliance against the school homophobe bully and all band together when he tries to mess with Regulus.

From the fic Where the two creeks meet on ao3.

Excerpt below the cut.

When Johnny reaches Regulus’ locker, he feels James press into his back, like a guard dog marking its territory. But Regulus doesn’t care for a guard. He prefers to face his enemies head-on. The sneer on Johnny’s face as he looks at Regulus, then to James, then at their proximity, makes it clear the boy has not learned his lesson.

“A little warm for a wool hat, don’t you think Johnny?”

A near growl rumbles from Johnny’s throat. He pokes his big finger in Regulus’ direction, his cheeks flaming. “You did this to me, didn’t you, you little shit?”

James’ hand moves to Regulus’ shoulder, attempting to pull him back further, but Regulus shakes out of his grip and takes a step forward instead.

“How could he have possibly had anything to do with - “ James attempts to say back, but Regulus cuts him off, speaking directly over James’ plea.

“We were all terribly sorry to hear you fell ill,” he says, taking yet another step into Johnny’s space, forcing him to take a tiny step back. “It would be a shame if it happened again. I wonder what you may lose next time. An arm perhaps?”

Regulus looks over his shoulder at James, who’s biting on his lower lip with an odd mix of fear and bewilderment. James nods his head and Regulus turns back toward his assailant.

“Might be hard to play football without an arm.”

At that exact moment, he hears the familiar sound of his brother’s voice, and turns again to find Sirius and Remus, flanked by Barty, Evan, and Peter all appearing behind James.

Barty steps up beside Regulus, smirking at him in an almost serpentine way. Johnny wastes no time turning his sneering attention to Barty, shaking his head as if in disgust.

“You’re all an abomination,” he continues.

Barty grins fully now, and before Regulus can stop him, Barty steps forward, leaning up on his tiptoes, and smacks a loud kiss straight to Johnny’s mouth. The act stuns Johnny for just a moment before he’s wiping at his mouth, gagging as an unending slew of curses falling from his mouth.

Barty and Evan take off immediately, hand in hand, chuckling with glee and sprinting through the corridor till their out the front doors.
