can i request something hurt/comfort with brad marchand, maybe after the team gets knocked out?
i kneel in front of the locker you're already grieving, you turn to me; eyes haunted by the game to come. yellow has never felt so sorrowful.
IN WHICH, emotions run high pre-game, dreams hang on a knife's edge, and bonds are tested in the face of impending loss
i KNOW you requested a post-game fic, but BARE WID ME. already working on a part two for you.
2.5k words, 14k characters in all, LOTTA angst. 2023 Game 7 if that helps narrow it down for you. Yeah.
a song to listen to while reading: BEING LOVED ISN'T THE SAME AS BEING UNDERSTOOD, VINES
The arenaļæ½ļæ½ļæ½s cold, brisk air tingles against my skin as I step inside TD Garden. The familiar hum of fluorescent lights, the faint scent of popcorn, and the sharp, almost metallic tang of ice flood my senses, anchoring me in this moment. Tonight's Game 7 against the Florida Panthers holds a weight unlike any other game Iāve experienced.
This is my second playoff season with Brad, and the stakes have never felt higher. As the assistant captain of the Bruins, heās shouldered immense pressure all season, trying to move past the once reckless and angry rat title he's held. Now, with the possibility of elimination looming, especially with their record this time, the atmosphere almost feels explosive with tension.
Walking through the corridors, I spot some of the other WAGs right in the tunnel. Their designer jackets, specifically made for them, and meticulously styled hair do little to hide the anxiety etched on their faces.
Itās not just about the game; itās about what happens after. The camaraderie among us is palpable yet tinged with the growing rivalry these two teams have, we all want our partners to shine. To be the heroes, if you will; but only one team can win.
I pause near the lounge area, where a few of the wives and girlfriends have gathered.Ā
Mia, a jet-black-haired striking girl with an infectious laugh, waves me over. Her boyfriend, Jake, is one of the teamās wingers. Weāve bonded over the past few months, finding solace in shared experiences and the unique rhythm of hockey life.
"How are you holding up?" She asks, her voice a blend of concern and excitement. "First Game 7, right?"
"Yeah," I nod, attempting a smile. "Itās a lot to take in."
Miaās eyes soften. "It doesnāt get easier, but you learn to ride the highs and brace for the lows. Tonightās huge, though. The guys are feeling the pressure."
I glance around, taking in the nervous energy. "Have you seen Brad?"
Mia shakes her head. "Not since the warm-ups. He seemed focused, though. More than usual."
Before I can respond, Coach Montgomery appears, clipboard in hand, eyes scanning the room. His presence is commanding, a stark reminder of the gravity of tonightās game. Iāve only exchanged pleasantries with him a few times, but his dedication isā¦ well, pretty undeniable. What heās done for this team in such a short amount of time is cinema.
"Ladies," he acknowledges us with a nod, his expression a mix of determination and weariness. "Itās going to be a tough one, but weāre prepared."
As he moves past, I catch sight of Jeremy Swayman, the young goaltender. His face is a mask of concentration, but thereās a flicker of uncertainty in his eyes. Heās the substitute tonight for Linus Ullmark, who's undoubtedly winning the Vezina, but out due to tearing his groin last game.
Jeremy has been performing well too - no doubt he's been the top backup in the league - but ever since Mia told me about his girlfriend Tori breaking up with him after three years together, heās been struggling.
In addition, he now faces the pressure of ending the best season in NHL history and potentially losing key players Bergeron and Krejci to retirement if he fails to win this game.
I catch Jeremy's gaze for a brief moment, offering him a small, reassuring smile before he turns back to his thoughts. The weight on his shoulders is immense, and I can only imagine the whirlwind of emotions churning inside him.
I make my way over to Jeremy, hoping to give him some words of support before the game begins. As I approach, I observe how his hands are balled up into tight fists and his body is tense with nerves.
"You got this." I say softly, trying to break through his pre-game reverie.
Jeremy turns to me abruptly, his eyes widening a bit as he's pulled out of his thoughts. His face is tinged with surprise, but it's tinged with another emotion that I can't quite place.
He runs a hand through his messy hair, the brown strands sticking up and falling back around a pale, weary face. His Adam's apple bobs as he swallows, looking uncharacteristically vulnerable for a moment.
"Yeah?" he asks, voice hushed but rough from nerves.
"I mean it." I say firmly, holding his gaze. "You're an incredible goalie, and you've got this. I've seen you play. You've been the best backup in the league this season. You're ready for this."
Jeremy lets out a dry scoff, his hands clenching into even tighter fists next to him. The tension is obvious in his muscles, in the way his jaw is set and his shoulders are taut. "Pressure's on," he mutters, his voice dripping with a bitter mix of self-deprecation and nerves.
I let out a low breath, seeing how he's doubting himself already. "Pressure's always on in this league," I say quietly but with a sharp tone. But you've risen to the occasion every other time? You'll do it again tonight. I have faith in you."
He looks at me then, the doubt still in his eyes, but something else too. A flicker of vulnerability, of need for reassurance. He's fairly new, always been reserved and private from what I know about him, but I think tonight that veneer has cracked a bit.
Jeremy lets out a shaky exhale; his brow furrowed as he tries to rein in his nerves. I can see the internal struggle in his face, the battle between fear and confidence waged fiercely inside his mind.
"I don't know," he chokes out, his voice a strangled whisper. "This isn't just another game, andā¦ -- well, I've never been the number one. They're all justā¦ all watching. Expecting."
He looks away, his gaze going distant as he speaks, his voice wavering.
I step closer, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. He's tall, but even standing next to him, I can sense the way he's coiled so impossibly tight, holding all the pressure in his body.
"Yes, they're watching." I say, my voice low and sure. "But you've been trained for this. You're one of the most dedicated athletes I've ever seen. You've prepared for this moment. Use it."
His eyes dart to mine, and there's a flash of something like hope in them, before it's washed away by another wave of self-doubt.
Jeremy lets out a bitter laugh, but it's interrupted by a sharp inhale, as if he's trying to hold back something bigger. Maybe tears, maybe a scream, maybe just his emotions bubbling to the surface.
"I have been preparing, and I have trained." He says, his voice cracking a little despite his effort to keep composure. "I don't think it's going to be enough."
His gaze is wide and raw, a mixture of fear and desperation looking back at me.
"Enough is subjective." I say firmly, my grip on his shoulder tightening. "Don't let yourself spiral. You are enough, Jeremy. For this team, for this game, for yourself."
Jeremy sucks in a deep breath, his body shuddering under my touch. It's like I can feel the tension in his muscles, the way he's holding himself together physically but falling apart mentally.
His eyes close for a brief moment, his lashes trembling against his skin. When he opens them again, staring straight ahead, they're still wide in fear, but there's a fire there too.
"You make it sound so simple," he mutters, his voice choked with emotion. "It's not, though. Not when everything's on the line."
I nod, understanding his struggle even if I can't relate directly. The pressure he's under is enormous, more than most people will see in their lives. I can only imagine what it feels like to have the weight of such a thing on your shoulders.
"I know." I say softly, my tone a mix of softness and steel. "But you're not alone. The team believes in you. Brad believes in you. I believe in you. You just have to believe in yourself."
He gazes at me with his mouth half-open and eyebrows slightly raised, as if he is touched by what I said, but he doesn't have a chance to speak before--
"Swayman, get over here NOW!"
Jeremy's gaze snaps towards the voice, the harsh sound of his name being called in that authoritative tone breaking the fragile moment between us. His body stiffens, and the expression of vulnerability on his face vanishes, replaced by a mask of concentration.
I step back, watching as he takes a deep breath and squares his shoulders. He looks every bit the professional now, but I can see the turmoil of emotions just beneath the surface.
He glances back at me for a brief moment, his eyes reflecting a mix of determination and fear, and then he does as said, walking towards Coach Montgomery.
I leave him to his thoughts before making the decision to visit Brad quickly. The game is about to start, and the anticipation is nearly suffocating. I turn to reach the locker room entrance, where the muffled sounds of last-minute strategies and pep talks drift through the door.
Before I can enter, Iāmā¦ well, intercepted by Patrice Bergeron, the captain and Bradās best friend. His usually warm and inviting eyes are shadowed with worry. Tonight could be his last game, and the weight of that knowledge is etched into every line of his face.Ā
"Hey," he greets me, his voice hushed. "You doing alright?"
"Trying to be," I admit. "Howās Brad?"
"Heās focused," Patrice replies. "Butā¦ itās tough. We all know whatās at stake. Not just the game, but the future. Especially for guys like me and Krejci."
I swallow hard, feeling the lump in my throat. "Itās not going to be the same without you."
He smiles faintly, a bittersweet expression. "Thatās life, isnāt it? Constantly changing. Just make sure youāre there for him, no matter what happens."
"I will," I promise, feeling the weight of his words settle over me.
As Patrice heads back into the locker room, I linger for a moment, gathering my thoughts. This is it. The culmination of an incredible, record-breaking season, and the potential end of an era. I take a deep breath and step inside.
As I push open the door to the bustling locker room, my gaze immediately lands on Brad. He sits on a bench in a secluded corner, his head bowed and hands knotted together as if in prayer. His shoulders are tense, his jaw clenched, and my heart sinks at the sight of him in such distress.
I cautiously approach, not wanting to disturb his intense focus. As I come closer, his gaze meets mine and my heart races with conflicting emotions. In his eyes, I see a fierce determination, but also a hint of fear and uncertainty. Yet there's something else, something deeper that I can't quite decipher. My mind is torn between wanting to ease his worry and wanting to understand the turmoil within him.
"Hey," I whisper, kneeling in front of him. "How are you holding up?"
He exhales sharply, reaching out to take my hands in his. "Iām ā¦ hanging in there. Lockin' in."
His grip on my hands is firm, almost desperate, and I can feel the slight tremble of his fingers. The weight of the game, the season, and the potential end of an era is bearing down on him, and itās almost palpable in the air between us.
āYou know youāve got this," I say, my voice steady. "Youāve been incredible all season, Brad. No matter what happens tonight, youāve given it everything."
His fingers tighten around my hands, a silent thank you. His expression doesnāt change, but thereās a small glimmer in his eyes that wasnāt there before. Despite his usual fiery personality, he looks more vulnerable than Iāve ever seen him, and itās almost disconcerting.
"I justā¦" he starts, pausing to collect his thoughts.
Itāsā¦ well, rare for Brad to struggle with his words, and the brief moment of hesitation speaks volumes about the intensity of his thoughts. He takes another deep breath, his gaze fixed on our intertwined hands.
Ā "I just donāt want to let anyone down," he continues, his voice quieter. "The team. The city. Myself. Iāve worked so damn hard to get here."
He lets go of one of my hands, running his fingers through his hair in frustration. I canāt tell if his expression is torn between hope and resignationā
"I donāt want this season to be over," he admits, his voice barely above a whisper. "Itās been the best damn year of hockey Iāve ever played, and I donāt know whatās going to happen next. Nothingās certain."
He clenches his jaw, his shoulders tensing. The thought of the future, uncertainty looming, is clearly weighing heavily on him, adding to the already immense pressure.
I squeeze his hand, trying to offer him some comfort, some reassurance. I honestlyā¦ donāt know that words arenāt enough to ease the anxiety coursing through him, but I do my best to convey my support and understanding.
"Youāve already done so much this season, Brad. Youāve broken records, led the team to greatness. This season is already a success, no matter what happens tonight."
"It doesnāt feel like enough."
His voice is tight, filled with a mixture of disappointment and determination. The drive to win, to push further, is just a part of who he is. Anything short of victory, no matter how incredible the season, will never be enough for him. "I want the fucking cup."
Thereās no need to sugarcoat the truth. Winning the cup is the ultimate goal for every player in the league, and Brad has tasted its sweetness before. The hunger for that feeling, the need to experience it again, fuels his every move.
"I know you do." I sigh softly, rubbing my thumb over his knuckles soothingly. "And you know this team can do it. We all believe in you."
As the door creaks open, I see that there are only three of us in the room: myself, Brad, and now Patrice walking towards us. No one says anything, but when he reaches us, Patrice extends his gloved hand for Brad to take.
Brad looks up at Patrice, his gaze meeting his best friendās steady one. For a moment, they share a silent exchange, the kind that only comes from years of understanding between brothers.
Brad reaches out and takes Patriceās hand, holding on like heād fall if let go. Their bond is evident in the subtle expressions they share, as if silently preparing themselves for the game ahead.
Patrice pulls him to his feet, standing shoulder to shoulder with him. They exchange a brief nod, a silent pact between teammates, friends, and brothers. The years they spent together, the memories they share, itās all coming to a head on this one night.
Patrice claps him on the shoulder, a gesture of reassurance and support. "It's alright, man."
Brad lets out a deep breath, his expression a mix of determination and nervous energy. He gives Patrice a brief, sharp nod before turning back to me, meeting my gaze with a hint of vulnerability beneath his usual swagger.
I give his hand one last squeeze, wishing I could say more, do more, to ease his tension. "Go out there and play like only you can." I murmur, my voice soft and earnest. "Weāre all counting on you."

The Batman gets locked up in walkers prison! š²
Walker left the zone to arrest him too why? Because clearly he is neglecting the child king! Smh. š Walker greatly respects the rules but now that King Phantom is in place he respects something more. This child has brought order back to the zone (not really he kinda just wrote off some rules for Walker to enforce to get him out of his hair) and even after Walker imprisoned him too! So now hes back to his old ways of bending the rules to fit his whims. But this weird Bat Man person is deserving of a harsh punishment, that or a good thrashinā, for how hes done gone and treated their new King! Canāt the man tell the boy has a familial bond with āem? For cryin out loud the youngin already gave em core charm! No all the others can clearly see plain as day that hes apart of the boys family. (Danny made Batman an ice ward that helps protect from other ghostsā¦ or so he thought oops itās telling all the other ghosts that hes Danny fam)
Yet despite all this the man still is refusing to bring the kid into his fold. You donāt just go on and do that to a young one. Their King is only a baby and now this man has gone and ignored him like hes plans to go out to get some milk and never come back. Canāt he see how this is affecting his development? Walker wont have anyone doin that to his ghost King No Sir. Hes gonna education this man himself if he has to. Rehabilitation is something he can do. Itās within his jurisdiction after all.
#danny phantom#dp x dc#dpxdc#š¤ #discusting use of my og accent#I can get worse yall#me and walker are from the same part of the workd#hell#bruce has no idea danny basically imprinted on him and all of a sudden a ghost is here to tell him anout the child support he aint been pay#lmao he doesnāt get a choice to pay child support tho xD he will accept danny feelings#or walker is gonna lock him up xD how funny#im not worry for the emojiās#I meant sorry but I guess I am sorry#walker just come in and: you canāt reject kids like that!#bruce is confused cause walker tells him danny is like hardly 2 years old#walker using his ghost age#now bruce is super worried about phantom because he doesnāt know about ghost age#oh god two you say??!? im horrible despicable#I asked a literal toddle to give me cover fire#oh god I let a baby get shot#OH GOD I ATTACKED AN ACTUAL BABY#danny just sneezes while sippin a smoothie unaware

Season 2 part 1 of DR was just fucking amazing and I have so many feelings about it. I feel like I'm talking about this pretty late cause the first 5 episodes also aired on TV for me like a week before they dropped everywhere else. (Win for the german fans.) But then I couldn't even watch the recorded episodes of this week till yesterday cause I wasn't home and nevermind I'm rambling again.
Cole and Geo are so perfect for each other. I love them. And at this point I have to confess: I never shipped lava. (don't kill me please) Lostshipping (that's their shipname right?) is supreme.
Generally I am so happy that Geo, Bonsel and the kids were able to leave the forgotten land. Even if it was due to a villian attack. But hey. Everything has a positive side. (I'm literally so happy for them, especially the kiddos.)
Lloyd was just stressing all the damn time and I'm here for it. Sleep deprived Lloyd was also perfect.
(-> It makes me whonder why Zane hasn't really had any visions anymore since this used to be his thing. And what exactly the reasons for visions are. Since Lloyds visions seem to predict the general bad future. Zanes visions were more centered around him I think.)
Also Zane just being the designated guy to stay at the monastery with frog dude
SIBLINGS. So much good Kai and Nya sibling content, especially with the flashback. The last season was already good on RGB sibling content so I really love them continuing that.
Also Kai still being a dad/older brother/mentor to Wildfyre. He just took full custody over her. On accounts of that Wildfyre not listening to him like the little gremlin she is.
So much good Kai in general.
Bonsel and her witch mom. That scene was so beautiful. I'm not the only one that saw the coming out allegory here right?
Jay showing up again and him just being absolutely done working with the administration. Bureaucracy is truly hell.
On that note. The bureaucratic back and forth between Zane and the two agents was amazing.
The dehumanizing of Zane from the Agent wasn't very amazing.
KAI AND BONZEL ARE TRAPPED IN THE OTHER DIMENSION šššš It's destroying me innerly. Especially with how Kai did not care about his own safety at all. My dude. You're trapped in a dimension with 4 of 5 evil spirits wandering around in there somewhere. Not to forget the only (known) ways to get out there are another blood moon in like a million years or smthng or a core dragons power who are scattered around who knows where.
So yeah. Lots of feelings. About Kai especially. I might even start write Ninjago fanfiction. (Surprised I didn't do that yet)
#ninjago#lego ninjago#ninjago dragons rising#dragons rising#ninjago dr s2#ninjago dr spoilers#ninjago spoilers#dragons rising spoilers#kai ninjago#kai smith#ninjago zane#zane julien#jay walker#lloyd garmadon#ninjago cole#geo ninjago#cole x geo#ninjago nya#nya smith#ninjago wildfyre#kai jiang#nya jiang#Are they finally gonna find Jay in part 2????#Is Bonsel gonna tell Kai about Jay somehow?#The second option would be super devastating cause Kai literally can't do anything from where he is#What is gonna happen to Kai in the hell dimension?#Never space? Whatever I can't remember what they called the dimension#So many ideas flooding my head#ninjago bonzle#Bonzle

saying this in a normal and not serious way. but i think my local library has a vendetta against me (in any context outside of being a patron)
#personal#like. trying to get an entry level job and never hearing back#(or being insta rejected if i try to follow up) depsite#a friend of mine getting a job there w/ similar experience#and then i applied for a gallery show. Got in. dropped off my work#and then i was completely snubbed? like not in the main show#not in the 'community submissions' part. even when i asked#if they got my work (they did. and said it would be installed). like what the hell man#like idk man š they just dont like my vibe i think#it is what it is. but also it feels ridiculous. but also none of this is actually true#necessarily. but it feels that way. anyways#if i get my masters in library science im deadass gonna have to move to a new city or something š#sigh. maybe museum round 2 will be successful š#courtney job search update once more..

Anyway, people saying to forgive the writing of Rise of Red and the way the movie handled everything can shut up now with, "Wait for part 2!", because now Descendants 5 is out here confirming its not gonna be a time travel movie that continues Rise of Red's plot but instead, a whole ass different plot that focuses on sports and a new villain.
#disney descendants#descendants#descendants 5#honestly this defense was stupid anyway because even seperate parts need to be critised but#hey guess what that part 2 is never coming#rise of red is gonna be the messy film it is always#with a rushed as hell ending to complete it and a vague time travel consquiences line from uma that will never be followed up on

Yeah got through the main quest with the gerudo, it wasn't painful! It wasn't even bad! Still got them outfits but for the most part it was like oh cool!
I would say a lot of that oh cool is from the fact they didn't do a lot to even fuck it up to begin with, I'm gonna be real with yall this game is NOT worth $60USD
Edit: lemme say one thing, you know when people were being like damn totk story wasn't dark or mature at all why was this compared to Majora's mask again? And then all the zeldatwt people came out and said zelda is just a kid series domt expect good writing uH
This one feels like a kid's game. That ain't to say it's terrible I would say, hell I'm not far in it if I get something crazy that's like OH FUCK I'll reblog this post and say something but uh.....game for babies I'm gonna be shocked if anyone struggles with any puzzles cuz you CAN CHEESE THEM EASY ITS š«¢š¤

i can almost guarantee ive said it before but. he would thrive in a zero escape game
#an octopath ze au would be kinda fun actually.. especially the octo2 party#would love to see these guys in an escape room . it would be so awful#temenos would fit in perfectly and might even make a good mc given his 'truth lies in the flame' segments..#i could see partitio doing well bc of his creativity and general demeanor#osvald is great at math but idk how trusting hed be of everyone in this situation.. especially if they assume zero is one of them early on#thronĆ© . girlie im so sorry#i think shed do fine for the most part (hard to say how much her thieving skills would be of help here) but she did not deserve this </3#do not let ochette into any pantry or food storage room. i dont trust any of that food#i wonder if shed have her partner(s) here tho.. how do u handle an owl and/or jackal in this situation..#she would be great for morale tho#same for agnea tho i worry for her emotional state a lil bit . help her#who am i missing .. CASTTI#shes good at managing stress (both hers and others) in awful situations . thank god#and shes there if anyone gets hurt š#not that its likely outside of bad end situations ? tho i may be thinking of the 999 map too much..#would it be more fun to use that as the setting or something else altogether.. more modern or more like octopath 2..#how the fuck would someone even make an escape room in . what is it like the industrial revolution. steam era#would it make sense to be able to use magic in universe to pull off something similar..#the canonicity of some ingame mechanics is dubious so its hard to tell how malleable magics uses and effects are..#itd probably be easier to place everyone in a modern setting but i have no idea what some of them would be that way#.. modern fantasy setting ??????#what if they had smartphones in octopath. would that be fucked up or what#also who the hell would be zero . would anyone be in kahoots w zero.. or at least Know Things but be unable to say smth abt it#i straight up forgot to mention hikari earlier but hes prolly like. fine#his intrusive thpughts would probably Suck Bad here but hed want everyone to get out alive as much as everyone else combined#wait who would even be the 9th person. would it be zero. but who..#if it were octo1 id say kit but its harder to get a good octo2 equivalent of him.. hm..#oh god im out of tags . tho what would the game style be like.. nonary game ab game etc etc.. what would be unique but fitting..#am i gonna look into actual scientific theories for this . and how would the morphogenetic field come into play.. and Why..#octotag

Great googley moogley itās all going to shit! Every day becomes exponentially more terrifying!
And all perfectly timed to just right at the start of whatās supposed to be my adult life where I get my shit together and be useful and productive!
#weāre cooked#weāre doomed#idk the end is nigh or whatever god damn#I just wanna be able to live in my own house and draw a guy sometimes without the ever present threat of the horrors is that too much#apparently yeah cause houses arenāt achievable anymore but man#m a n#especially if you didnāt/couldnāt go to college and arenāt capable of working most jobs#doesnāt help thereās the chance some part of my existence might be suddenly illegal or extremely dangerous yippie!#the options are literally 1. people die 2. people die what the hell do you even do man#how the fuck is this the election Iām gonna get forced to be a part of weāre living in hell#and nobody around me believes itāll get bad yay great oh so wonderful#I canāt wait to lose rights and cause millions of deaths regardless of who gets chosen#I think one of these days Iām literally just gonna die of stress#itāll either be a stroke or a heart attack or cancer or uh well ya know#weāre fucked#weāre screwed#I wanna have some kind of an actually visible break down but ive suppressed everything so much that I donāt outwardly emote much anymore :)#and the constantly dissociating thing too I guess#if you ever think āoh yeah I can just think of guy in a situation thatās so coolā donāt itās a trapā#although tbh this would be significantly worse without it so uh law of equivalent exchange I guess#fuck fuck fuck anyway#not putting this in the main tags#definitely deleting this later#if anyone in my house got any hints that I may or may not have different opinions than them well uh Iām financially dependent on them so um#literally wouldnāt have anywhere to go if anything happened#oh weāre really in it now Simon#hell world#thereās like what 7 genocides going on too I hate everything I hate everything I hate everything#I canāt do anything to help anyone either cause I donāt have a job and I could get kicked out or treated badly at home for it#not that anyone thinks very highly of me at home anyway I am kinda family disappointment number 2 I pretty sure
