Warnings: swearing, drinking, a fight of you look hard enough. I believe that's it.

A03

I just want to put this out there this is a work of fiction. I in no way shape or form know how these players really act in really life. For those of you who may like Alex Kerfoot I am warning you for the sake of the series ONLY, I made Alex a jackass to fit the story line. I don't know how he really acts in person but I made him what I needed him to be for the story only. Please don't hate on me or the series if you don't agree with how he acts or talks within the series. Thank you

When you plan the perfect fairytale wedding, have the perfect ring, the perfect girl to walk down the aisle to you, you expect it to go perfectly smooth right? Well that's what Tyler Seguin thought the day he proposed to Tiffany. It had been the perfect beach proposal in Italy during the off season, they had been together for 2 years and she seemed to understand what it meant to be a hockey player's wife. Everything seemed like a fairytale… till last night when he found what he thought was the love of his life, fucking another man in their bed, in their house. Since then he had been hiding away in Jamie's basement, nursing a beer as he poured out his heart to his best friend over facetime.

"Ziggy, I know it hurts, and I'm truly sorry, but hiding in a basement till the season starts is not the answer." Arabella Kerfoot said with a dramatic sigh. Tyler took another sip of his beer and looked away from the camera. He knew she was right but his pride was too wounded to admit that.

"I don't know, Jamie's basement is pretty nice."

"It's May, Segs. Hockey starts in September. You gonna hide down there for over 4 months??" Ella gave him a hard look. Hanging his head the hockey forward sighed and shook his head. Running a hand through his black hair he looked back up and gave her the same look back.

"So what do you suggest, oh Great One?"

Bella laughed and flipped him off through the camera. "Wayne Gretzky is the Great One. But come spend the summer with me hiding away from the Media and just regroup. Take a breather." She said, taking a bite of her muffin as she leaned back into her chair. Tyler watched her closely, seeing if she was serious about it. He closed his eyes and ran his hand through his hair again before looking back up at the camera. "Come on, even Jamie thinks it's a good idea."

"You talked to Benn about it?" .

Bella smiled at the camera and took another bite of her muffin. "What else was I supposed to do?" She asked. "Of course I talked to Jamie about it and he agreed with me. You need to leave his basement. Like yesterday and get your ass up here to my place. Take the summer to shut out the world and regroup with me." She sighed and sat her muffin down, running a hand through her hair before leaning closer to the camera. "Tyler, what happened is shitty. What she did to you was something horrible, but if you stay there, if you let this haunt you, it's going to ruin you. The media will eat you alive. Plus if you went home… dude I love your family, but let's be honest, they won't let you have any peace trying to make sure you're okay after something like this."

He knew she was right. He honestly did. They both had shitty reputations with the media. They messed up one time in their careers and all the sudden they were uncontrollable wild childs that needed to be torn down. Tyler has done so much since his move to Texas to rebrand himself, make a better name and leave all the Boston shit behind him. He finished his beer and looked off into the distance of the darkened room. Ella stayed silent as he thought, as his mind went through all his thoughts. He sighed and picked at the sandwich Jamie had made him hours ago, but left untouched. He knew Ella was waiting for him to answer, but his mind was tired and his heart was too broken to give her one. He heard his best friend sigh, knowing she was trying hard to give them the space he needed but a push at the same time. There was a 6 year age gap between the two Forwards, Tyler taking on the role of big brother to a young girl he met in 2017 who had just won the Stanley Cup in her rookie year with Pittsburgh, and made a mistake in front of the media, earning her a nasty reputation, similar to the one he had when he played for Boston. Fast forward 4 years later and the two were more like siblings then their own siblings. Tyler stood by Ella in so many fights with her brother Alex, who played for Toronto, when he would fight her on what a disappointment her reputation bright to the family name. Ella also stood beside Tyler during many family events where his family would hound him on not having settled down yet and setting his new found reputation into stone. Over the past 4 years the two of them formed a bond, one that to the outside world looked more than platonic, but they could never see each as anything more than best friends and siblings.

Knowing that Ella was in his corner and would understand if he needed a moment to breathe and ponder her request to spend the summer in Pittsburgh with her, he finally answered her question. "Let me have the night, to just…. Let my mind shut down and figure out how to go about this. I'll call you in the morning and let you know what I'm going to do. Okay Bell?"

"Okay Ziggy. If I don't hear from you by 10am I'm calling Benn and making him put you on a plane though. Love you Bubs."

"Love you Bubs." Tyler said back with their signature sign off before hanging up the phone. The room was darker than he remembered from before Ella had called, so flipping on a light he sat down on one of the sofas in Jamie's basement. His phone lit up with text messages from Tiffany, ones he swiped away so he didn't have to see them. With a sigh he flipped his phone over and ignored it as it continued to buzz. Getting up he walked slowly up the staircase to the first floor into the kitchen. Jamie was there cooking some food, listening to a game from the playoffs from the TV in the corner.

"About time you showed your face. Ella finally got you to leave my dungeon of despair?" Jamie asked as he stirred the stuff in the pot. Tyler raised an eyebrow upon hearing the weird name for the basement and Jamie saw the look of confusion. Nodding his head and waving a hand in the air he answered the silent question. "That's what she called it when she called me this morning. Don't ask, it's Ella, that's enough said."

Both men have a soft chuckle at that and Jamie went back to stirring his food. Tyler walked to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water, chugging it down like his life depended on it. He hadn't drunk anything other than beer in the past 14 hours, and he didn't realize how thirsty he was till that moment. Throwing the empty water bottle in the small bin beside the sink, he leaned against the countertop and ran a hand through his thick hair.

"Ella wants me to come to Pittsburgh for the summer…. Instead of going home." He broke the silence after a bit of deep thinking. Jamie hummed in response, turning the stove off and removing his dish he had been stirring. Tyler watched him closely as he poured the stew into bowls. "You don't seem surprised." Jamie put the pot down and turned to face his best friend. He placed his arms over his chest and leaned against the table.

"Tyler, going home is only going to end in 1 of 2 ways. Your family going overboard on trying to keep you happy and giving you no time to grieve this, or being all up your ass about how shit went wrong and how this is going to look in you. They won't let you have any peace."

Tyler folded his arms and hung his head, giving a slight nod. "That's what Ella said too."

Jamie pushed off from the table and walked over to the forward and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Ella is right. And she's right in the fact you should go spend the summer with her. Lord knows that girl can't go home to her family. Not fair you two spend your summer with people that don't understand you. She's your best friend, so go and recover from this."

Tyler nodded his head and looked down at his bare feet. He knew they were right, there was nothing holding him here for the next few months. So pulling out his phone he shot a text to his one friend, asking if they could fly them on their small private plane to Pittsburgh in the morning. Then he shot a text to Ella that he knew she was probably already expecting.

*Pick me up at the airport in the morning*

∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆

Stepping off the private plane around 8am in Pittsburgh instead of getting ready for a bachelor party that night wasn't how Tyler saw his weekend going. But here he was getting off his friend's plane at the airport to meet up with Ella. Flipping his sunglasses up onto his hair he looked around for the tall brunette he called his best friend. Looking off to his right he saw her walking his way. Ella was one for fashion. She knew what looked good on her tall, thin but muscular frame. Clad in a white deep V neck shirt that hugged her curves, a pair of dark blue skinny jeans with black ankle boots. Orange tinted Aviators kept her eyes from the morning sun, her hair fell to her shoulder blades thick and wavy down her back.

"You definitely know how to make an entrance Ell-Bell." Tyler said as he took the last few steps off the private plane. Ella's bright laugh filled the air around them as she stopped in front of her best friend.

"Please Ziggy, you dress to impress all the time, you lady killer." She said waving her hand at his current outfit. He had on a dark green shirt that was so tight it was a second skin. Every muscle on display. Tan pants clinged to his thighs, dark brown Hey Dudes on his feet. His hair was styled in the blown away look, curls perfectly messy. Dark sunglasses now perched on top of his head. His wide, full white smile lit up the runway, reaching out he pulled his best friend into a hug. For the first time since he found his now ex-fiance with another man, he really smiled. Pulling away from the hug, Tyler grabbed his bags he had dropped at his feet and followed Ella to her car. Tossing his bags Into the back seat of her Jeep, he climbed into the passenger seat and turned to look at his best friend.

"Thank you Ella…. For helping me during this. For being my best friend."

The brunette smiled back at him and took his hand, giving it a squeeze. "You are welcome Tyler. I know this is hard, and shitty. What she did was unforgettable. You are more of a brother than my own flesh and blood and I will always stand in your corner." She let go of his hand and started up her jeep, the warm spring air floating through the windows as she pulled out of the airport parking lot. "And you know that whenever you want to talk about it, or vent, or just sit in silence and drink a beer together, you just have to ask."

Tyler watched the scenery go by out his window. Pittsburgh was a beautiful town, the people here passionate about their sports teams with flags and banners blowing in the light breeze. What had once been a small coal town was now a booming city with people from all over flocking to its doors to watch hockey and football and baseball, for jobs and major opportunities that showed up each day.

The trees were just starting to green up, the grass turning a pretty shade of green, early spring flowers blooming in the yards of the homes they drove past. Tyler was lost in thought as he watched the town go by, the wind blowing through his curls as he leaned his head back against the headrest. The sound of a phone ringing broke him from his thoughts. Looking over at his friend, he watched as she looked down at her phone, a scowl across her face as she quickly hit decline to the call.

"Is everything okay Ella?" Concern in his voice. The forward sighed as she came to a stop at a red light. She looked over at Tyler through her sunglasses and he knew right away she wasn't happy.

"Alex keeps calling." She finally spoke as she turned back to look at the road.

"What does he want?"

"It's Alex. The only reason he ever calls his baby sister is because he wants to yell at me for being the family disappointment." The light turned green and Ella started moving the Jeep again, flipping her turn signal on and going right, towards her house. "Every year my family goes on a vacation together and last year I just…. Hide away and not gone. And I don't plan on going this year and I'm sure he is calling to bitch me out for it among other things….. shit."

Tyler looked from his friend to the front windshield as he felt the jeep come to a stop. He looked up the driveway to Ella's house on the outside of town and saw a car parked right by the front door. Looking back at his friend he gave her a pissed off look.

"What is he doing here?" Tyler hissed as he looked back at the Subaru in the driveway. Ella remained quiet as she pulled up her driveway to park beside the car that was waiting for them. The Jeep hadn't even been turned off yet when Tyler was out of its doors and marching towards the man waiting. After the past weekend, the drama and pain he went through, he was now ready for a fight.

"What the hell do you want Alex?" His voice boomed as Tyler stopped in front of the tall dark haired player from Toronto. He watched as Alex Kerfoot scowled upon hearing his voice and turned to face him.

"I should have known my baby sister would have gone running the minute she found out you were no longer engaged." Alex sneered as he crossed his arms over his chest.

Ella stopped next to Tyler and matched her brother's posture. "The fuck is that supposed to mean?"

Alex laughed, shaking his head as if the answer was obvious. "With the reputation you both have among players it should be very clear what I'm saying. But I'll spell it out nevertheless." He pushed off his car and stopped inches from his sister. "You couldn't wait to have him back in your bed after you were the one that probably wrecked his engagement, Arabella. People like you two don't know how to be any different no matter how much your families try to put you on the right path."

Tyler grabbed Alex by the arm and yanked him away from Ella who had a look of horror across her face. Tyler pushed Alex up against his car and pinned him there with an arm across his chest.

"Watch your mouth Kerfoot. My engagement being called off has nothing to do with Ella. Your sister is my best friend and she offered me a place to stay while all that shit back in Texas gets worked out. Next time don't speak without the facts." He said through gritted teeth. Tyler stood a few inches taller than Alex, and he put his full height to his advantage. The two glared at each other for a moment before Ella spoke up.

"Why are you here Alex?"

Pushed against Tyler's arm, Alex broke free and fixed his jacket, giving the taller man one more glare before facing his sister. "You never come home anymore during the off season. Your place is at home, with family, keeping your rep clean during the summer instead of hiding out in Pittsburgh, giving the media more drama to feed off of. So I came to get you."

"Yeah that's not happening." Tyler chuckled sarcastically as he stepped closer to Ella for support. Alex cocked his head and waved a hand between the 3 of them to make a point. "And what place do you have here to speak Seguin?"

"Stop Alex!" Ella snapped as she pushed between the two men. She could see Tyler was holding back his anger, an anger he was famous for once having. And Alex knew how to push buttons, it's what gave him an edge on the ice. Tyler shook his head and took a step back, giving space between the three of them. He hated how Alex and her whole family treated her after one mistake. It was like watching his early years play out all over again.

"I am home Alex. Pittsburgh IS my home now. And I have house guests to care for. So I suggest you leave and let me go about my life here, with my friends and my team who are supporting me far more than my family has in the past few years." Tyler watched as Ella spoke, before she turned her back on her brother and walked back to her car to grab her purse from the back seat where she had left it. Digging out her house key she turned back to face Tyler and nodded her head towards the front door. Tyler nodded and turned back to face Alex, crossing his arms over his chest and tapped his chin up towards the Subaru behind him. He watched as Alex shook his head and grabbed the handle of the car door and yanked it open.

"I'll tell Mom that you already had plans for the summer. At least call her some though." Alex called out dryly before climbing into the car shutting the door behind him. Tyler glanced over at his friend and watched all kinds of emotions cross her face as her brother drove down her driveway and then down the road. Tyler watched her from the corner of his eye as the car disappeared down the road. He was fortunate enough to have a family that still supported him even after everything in Boston. Even after up until a year and half ago when he got serious with Tiffany he bounced around from girl to bar each weekend not caring if he got too drunk and ruin all he worked so hard to build. Even now, with everything that has happened in the past 48 hours with Tiffany, he knew his family understood to a point why he didn't come home. Why he wanted see space. Sure they would check in on him and maybe suggest coming to visit but they wouldn't show up at his door and chastise him for his choice.

"Don't bother even bringing your bags in." Ella's voice broke him from his thoughts. He turned to fully face her but Ella was already heading for her door.

"Excuse me? Care to explain??" He asked, not fully understanding that statement at all. He had a split second fear that maybe she was going to send him back to Texas after what just happened. But seeming to sense his underlying fear, she stopped at the door after she unlocked it and gave him one of her famous looks.

"We're not staying here." She said with a flip of her hair over her shoulder. "If we really want to disappear, then we are going to the cabin." Tyler had only seen her cabin once since she bought it. It was in a small fishing town at the top corner of Erie county and the lake. It sat by the water with only 2 other cabins in sight across the lake. It was remote and quiet. "The three of us need a break from the world. So to the cabin we go!" Ella singsonged as she marches through her front door, leaving Tyler to stand with a smirk on his face. He shook his head as he followed through the now open door. Only Sidney Crosby and himself knew she bought the cabin up north, as a way to really disappear when life got too much in the city.

"Wait." He stopped, replaying what she had said in his head. Three of them. Three people. So someone else was spending the summer with Ella? "Three people?" He called out but Ella had already disappeared upstairs to her room. "Ella, who else is spending the summer with us?!" He yelled up the steps as he raced up them two at a time. "I've had enough surprises in the past 48 hours to last a lifetime." He grumbled as he reached the top step. He found Ella packed 2 large suitcases of clothes, bathroom needs, shoes, and other random things. She smiled up at him and just gave him a wink. With a groan He knew he wasn't getting his answers till they reached that cabin on the lake.

DATING WITH JACK

parings: jack hughes x girlfriend!reader

summary: how I think it would be to date jack

authors note: I'm going to start writing about hockey, so if you have any requests, feel free to send them.

✩. . . masterlist !

You and Jack met at a local coffee shop in New Jersey. You didn't really follow hockey, so you had no idea who he was. He noticed you and tried to hide, thinking you might be a fan, but you just thought he was being shy.

When he finally mustered the courage to strike up a conversation, you didn't recognize him, and we had an awkward exchange about our favorite coffee flavors. Jack was pleasantly surprised that you wasn't starstruck.

Our first date was at a local art gallery, as you was more into art than sports. Jack, wanting to impress you, did some quick research on famous artists, which led to some amusing mispronunciations of artists' names.

Jack and you tried to keep our relationship low-key, given his status as a professional athlete. We enjoyed quiet evenings at home and occasionally attended games where you'd pretend to be just another fan.

Jack becomes your personal hockey tutor, explaining the rules and strategies. You start to attend games regularly, and your interest in the sport grows.

You and Jack enjoy watching movies and cooking together on your off days. He's a huge fan of your homemade dishes.

You support Jack in his career, even if it means traveling for away games. You become a true Devils fan and proudly wear his jersey in the stands.

He teaches you the basics of ice skating, and you share cute moments on the rink, occasionally falling but always laughing.

On off-days, you both enjoy exploring the beautiful parks and beaches along the Jersey Shore.

Jack's teammates adore you, and you've become a regular at team gatherings, where you've made friends in the hockey world.

You've introduced Jack to some of your favorite non-hockey hobbies, like hiking, cooking, and binge-watching TV series.

He's always there to comfort you after a tough day, and you support him through the highs and lows of his hockey career.

You two have a playful rivalry in mini-hockey games at home, and Jack swears you have a hidden talent for slapshots.

Date nights often involve watching classic hockey games together or attending charity events to give back to the community.

You've traveled together to see other NHL arenas, making it a goal to visit every one over the years.

So JUMP just dropped the first 11 chapters of a series called DOGSRED - a republication of the hockey serialization “Supinamarada!” by Satoru Noda (Golden Kamuy!) back in 2011-2012 - and between the slapstick (or….slapshot….?) comedy, the over-the-top action, the beautiful visuals and the already adorkable characters….

…yeah I can see this becoming a new hyperfixation, not only for it being perfectly up my alley but also there’s one panel of a dude in an AVs jersey and I already love him for it.

Slapshots and Contracts Blurb:

Upon returning from a lengthy road trip, Sidney Crosby walked through the front door of the Crosby-Noir household, expecting the usual warmth of his family's welcome. Little did he know, Isabelle "Izzy" Noir and the kids had something mischievous up their sleeves.

As Sidney kicked off his shoes and dropped his bags, the house seemed unusually quiet. Suspicion crossed his face as he called out, "Hey, where is everyone?"

Just then, a series of giggles erupted from the living room, and Sidney walked in to find a scene of controlled chaos. Izzy and the kids were huddled around a table, suppressing laughter, and an array of colorful items lay scattered.

Sidney, raising an eyebrow, asked, "What's going on here?"

Izzy, with a sly grin, replied, "Welcome home, Sid! We thought we'd spice things up a bit."

The kids couldn't contain their excitement as they explained their elaborate plan. They had filled the living room with balloons, created a makeshift obstacle course with streamers, and strategically placed whoopee cushions in unsuspecting spots.

Sidney, realizing he had walked into a prank, chuckled. "Well, well, looks like I underestimated the creativity in this household."

As he navigated the balloon-filled room with a playful smile, the whoopee cushions let out their signature sounds, eliciting laughter from the kids and an amused smirk from Sidney. Izzy, enjoying the show, couldn't resist a teasing comment, "You've got to watch your step around here, Sid."

The family prank turned into a lively evening of shared laughter and playful banter. Sidney, while being the target of the prank, appreciated the effort his family had put into welcoming him home in such a unique and entertaining way.

Later that night, as they sat together for a cozy family dinner, Sidney couldn't help but feel grateful for the warmth and joy that surrounded him. The prank became a cherished memory, a testament to the playful spirit and love that defined the Crosby-Noir household.

Chair de poule - snippet

Rating: General audience but with warnings Trigger warnings: Walburga Black's A+ parenting, corporal punishment, book burning, bad French* (although less than expected because it was a very unproductive weekend and I didn't get my act together.) Description: A view into Sirius's childhood, and how Pascal Dumais ended up with multiple complete sets of R.L. Stine's Goosebumps series in his basement. Thanks to @lumosinlove, @noots-fic-fests, @hazelnoot-analyst for their excellent work, @1-800-shedevil for the fun line divider, and to R.L. Stine for giving me many nightmares (not that I ever read a full book, just the thought of the stories and YTV show gave me nightmares.)

-Sirius. SIRIUS! Descend de là tout de suite. Tu étais censé commencer tes exercices il y a cinq minutes.

Sirius sort de sa chambre, tourne pour se présenter pour une rapide fesser (peut-être il pourra ainsi éviter une punition plus sévère), puis se dirige vers le foyer ou se rangent tous les patins. Il avait oublié que son père n’avait pas un match ce soir, et sa mère était toujours plus stricte et attentif quand son père était là. Se peut-il que son père entrerait assez tôt pour observer un peu de son entrainement? Sirius savait qu’il était toujours un petit peu trop lent, qu’il n’avait pas réussi à surpasser les objectifs fixés par Orion pour le mois peu importe qu’il ait fait des intervalles pour une heure chaque soir sur la patinoire dans la cour, même après les entrainements avec son équipe les lundis et mercredis. Devrait-il tenter de changer l’objectif pour démontrer son contrôle de la rondelle? Il a beaucoup amélioré sa technique depuis la dernière fois que son père l’ait vu. Mais, en ce faisant, il sera peut-être puni pour avoir l’audace de changer le régime qu’Orion lui avait dicté. Non, mieux qu’il se prépare pour une double session sur la patinoire avec son père. Sa collation n’était qu’une banane, s’il vomisse, ce ne serai pas trop dégoutant. De toute manière, s’il ne se gave pas à diner, son père ne croira pas qu’il s’est efforcer jusqu’au bout. Ce soir, il n’ira pas au lit affamé. Perdu dans ses calculs, il commence ses étirements puis se lance dans sa routine. --

He was right, he was in for a double session on the ice, and then a lecture after supper to boot, since he both failed to meet his father's speed goals and missed the net with one of his slapshots. What he hadn't expected was for Walburga to then bring Regulus into the room, carrying his stack of Chair de Poule novels. He had convinced his parents to buy him the series and each new novel, because it was what most of his team was reading on the bus, and it was important to fit in with the team. He had been passing them on to Regulus after reading each one and they would read them together on the few nights that they could sneak into each others' rooms - usually when Walburga and Orion had a team event.

Walburga showed Orion how she had been tracking the boys' practices and progress, and more importantly, how they had been lacking in discipline and failed to follow his set training regime. She claimed that these books were a distraction, were the reason the boys had failed to meet Orion's expectations. She had seen both boys reading on multiple occasions over the past two weeks, when they should have been studying the plays Orion had designed for them to practice. Sirius had been late - late! - to start his practice sessions twice - twice! - in the past month, because he was holed up in his room reading.

Orion looked very disappointed as he ordered both boys to lower their pants and bend over. He reviewed the boys' lap times, and told Sirius that he would remove his signet and Cup rings this time, since Sirius had gotten faster, albeit if not fast enough. Afterwards, he lectured the boys about the need for drive and discipline if they wanted to make it into the NHL and win Stanley Cups for Slytherin. Distractions would derail their career before it ever began. Distractions must be eliminated. Their team mates would respect them more for their dedication to the game if they studied playbooks on the bus. He and Walburga then ordered the boys to feed the books into the fireplace, one by one, until they were all reduced to ash. It took over an hour to burn the 60 books they had - nearly the full collection. Sirius blamed the smoke for the tears he and Regulus were both blinking away.

-- « Sirius, tu as un livraison », cria Celeste Dumais quand elle entenda Pascal et Sirius sortant du garage. «C'était un peu lourd, et je ne voulais pas descendre les escaliers avec un tel poids...» --

Celeste and Pascal were expecting their third child, and Sirius didn't want her attempting the basement stairs with a heavy package either. He hadn't been around many pregnant people, but even he knew lifting wasn't what they should be doing.

He hefted the box, and brought it down stairs. Pascal watched with a raised eyebrow but made no comments as Sirius started unpacking a complete set of Chair de poule books.

Pascal's eyebrows raised further when Sirius ordered, and unpacked, the exact same series three months later.

He figured it was a Black secret that Sirius would eventually unburden himself of when over the course of the next three years, Sirius bought more than thirteen complete sets of the series. He thought he had it nearly figured out - as far as he could tell, Sirius ordered a new set around the time he reached a point milestone, or if he broke his own scoring record within a season.

When Sirius moved out, he only took one set of the books with him, and asked Pascal to give a set to each of his children, and donate the rest. Pascal did that, but also left a set on the basement shelves. He would often find Logan reading one of those spare copies in the quiet hours of the morning, or at night when he was still too keyed up after a game to sleep but none of the Dumais kids were awake to be read to. In fact, he himself had started grabbing one or two of them when he was still keyed up after a game but Celeste and the kids were in bed. Adele had outgrown them, and never really liked that brand of horror anyway, but she had loved snuggling into Sirius when he started reading aloud. She had recently sent her complete set back to the basement because she had run out of space on her bedroom bookshelves. Marc and Louis were about the age to find them the right amount of frightening, and Katie was into anything that would get her snuggle time with Logan, so they were still getting lots of use.

He hoped that whoever next billeted in the basement would be able to carry on the tradition with the kids' horror books. He didn't expect Regulus to tear up when he saw the complete set on the bookshelf in the basement bedroom when Pascal gave Regulus a tour. He certainly hadn't expected it to be the deciding factor when Regulus was hesitant about moving into the basement. Maybe one day Regulus would explain the attachment the Black brothers held for these books? Although, given how attached the two brothers were to just these books, and what he knew about their childhood, maybe he didn't want to know.

Hockey-Ella Morgan Rielly x OC

Arabella Kerfoot is the younger sister of Alex Kerfoot and she one of the only female hockey player in the league. Ella as she likes to go by is the wild child of the family and also of the Pittsburgh Penguins. With a reputation of the "Wild Cinderella" Ella is the media's #1 target. Her best friend is Tyler Seguin, who had a bad reputation in Boston before going to Texas, so he understands her better then her own family and is trying to help work through her rebellious reputation. After a wild and not so pretty night out on the town Ella is quickly not the favorite anymore in Pitt and is soon traded to Toronto who is looking for a power forward with the speed and risky skill set she brings to the table. The catch: they need to fix her tarnished reputation before the Toronto media tears her apart. The solution: have her fake a relationship with Morgan Rielly to show she is determined to settle down and leave her wild Cinderella life behind, and make a fairytale lifestyle in Toronto instead. Only Ella wasn't planning on falling for the red haired man who offered the solution to her problems. With the media and her brother breathing down her neck to fix her past, her best friend telling her that a fake relationship will only hurt her and the man she never new she needed in front of her, she is about to ether live out a Hockey-Ella fairytale or an ultimate disaster.

Welcome to the Slapshot Series!

Enter below ⬇️

To get you started here is how this series works. Each story is interconnected through the casts, knowing each other in some way, shape or form. Each book can be read as a stand alone, but after book 1, there will be spoilers through each book that will point to a chapter or event that had happened in a previous book. This won't affect the outcome of you reading the story you picked, but reading in order will help you understand some things within the story. (but the path you choose is totally up to you! Don't feel obligated to read about a player you don't like.) Below is the books in order of how I would read them based on the events that happen within each story. Main blog Masterlist

ON THE NAIL! - Heading to Cranberry for Game 5

(0-0) The Nailers went on the road to start the playoffs, losing game 1 to the Fuel. What went wrong in this game to cause Wheeling to fall behind in the series early? After how poorly the regular season went for the Nailers against the Fuel, it had to be expected that Wheeling would struggle with Indy at some point in this series. And the fact that it happened in the first game gave them enough time to get over it and bounce back to avoid falling too far behind in the series overall. While you never want to lose a game in the playoffs, game one can be seen as the “feeling out” game, so a loss there isn’t quite as detrimental as some others could be. The first period of game one was completely owned by Indy, as they outshot the Nailers 16-4 in the frame and maintained puck possession and pressure to the point that Wheeling found it tough to exit their own zone at times. The only bright spot of the period for the Nailers was probably Jaxon Castor between the pipes, who made 15 saves in the period, with the only goal being scored during a Fuel power play. Aside from that, Castor made several strong plays to keep his team in it through the end of the period. The second period started off much stronger for the Nailers, who came out firing and finally found the back of the net just over a minute into the frame thanks to a hard slapshot off the stick of Davis Bunz to tie the score. Unfortunately, the rest of the period belonged to Indy, who managed to score just four minutes after Bunz drew things back to even, then pumped another into the cage less than a minute later to give themselves a two-goal edge. One more Fuel goal with just over seven minutes left in the frame capped things off and, when the horn sounded, Indy found themselves with a 4-1 lead and the game well in hand. Neither team could take full control of the game in the third, but with the score where it was, it didn’t really matter. Wheeling did manage to get one more on the board on a 4-on-3 power play with eight minutes left in regulation thanks to Dillon Hamaliuk which brought it back to within two, but Indy earned one more goal with less than four minutes remaining, and when the horn sounded, the Fuel skated away with the series lead after a 5-2 victory. (1-0 IND) Game two was played the night after game one, with the Nailers finding a way to tie the series up with Indy. How did Wheeling find a way to turn it into a best-of-five series? After how the game played out the night before, you had to assume the Nailers would come out with a real fire to try and get back into the series. Generally, a team going down 2-0 in a series isn’t exactly a death knell, but it’s very hard to dig yourself out of it. Especially when you’ve struggled to win games in the other team’s building this season, as Wheeling has in games played out in Indy. Despite Indy working hard to earn the first goal for the second night in a row, it wouldn’t work out for them thanks to another strong performance from Jaxon Castor. Then, just over six minutes into the period, Matt Koopman gave the Nailers their first lead of the series on a strong play on a rebound. It turned into a bit of a back-and-forth affair from there until Wheeling received their second power play of the game with ten seconds left in the period, and with only four seconds left on the clock in the period, Evan Vierling managed to push another puck into the net to make it a 2-0 Nailers lead when the horn sounded. Wheeling was one of the best second period teams all year in the regular season, and it held true in this game as well. The Nailers managed to net four goals in the period, including two from leading goal scorer in the regular season, Jordan Martel, only 21 second apart, and the rout was on. Goals by Justin Lee and Jared Westcott just over a minute apart late in the period made it a 6-0 game and put Wheeling only 20 minutes away from tying the series coming home. You could tell the third period was merely a formality as both teams had a couple chances, but nothing really seemed that urgent. The Nailers did manage to get their seventh goal of the game thanks to the second goal of the game by Evan Vierling just before the midpoint of the period on the power play before Indy broke up the shutout bid on their own power play thanks to former Nailer Cam Hausinger, but it was too little, too late as Wheeling managed to keep that score through the final horn and left the ice with the series back to square one. (1-1) Game three was the first game played at home for the Nailers this postseason, with Wheeling earning a big win. How did the Nailers take the lead in the series? With how lopsided the first two games of this series were, it made sense that this game would be much more evenly matched and come down to the wire. I’ve noticed over the years of watching hockey that series like these tend to even themselves out somewhat, and this game turned out to be exactly what I expected. Especially when the series is tied at this point, game three turns out to be make or break rather often, so both teams wanted to come out strong and take the series lead again. The ice was tilted in favor of the Nailers in the first period, as they managed to outshoot the Fuel 12-5 over the first 20 minutes. Neither team was able to find the back of the net until just over eight minutes left in the frame, as Isaac Belliveau earned his first playoff goal of his professional career to put the home team up in the game and send the fans in attendance into a fervor. Neither team could get much going in the way of offense the rest of the way, and the period ended with the score still 1-0 Wheeling. The second period was tilted just as much, but in the other direction, as Indy managed to outshoot the Nailers 17-8 in the middle frame. Right around midway through the game, Indy finally broke through and deposited the puck behind Jaxon Castor to tie the game back up, but with less than five minutes left on the clock, Davis Bunz restored the lead for Wheeling. With the Nailers enjoying the lead after 40 minutes played, you just knew the Fuel would come out firing in an attempt to bring the game back in their direction. Wheeling was able to withstand the Indy onslaught for the majority of the third period. The Fuel outshot Wheeling in the period 11-4 (and had a 33-24 shot advantage in regulation), but Castor was playing just as strong as he did coming down the stretch of the regular season and through the first two games of this series. Unfortunately, Indy was able to find one crack in his armor and took advantage of it to tie the game with less than seven minutes remaining in regulation. With the score tied and the series lead hanging in the balance, the Fuel continued their onslaught, but Castor and the defense stood tall once again and found a way to force the game to overtime where, just 30 seconds into extra time on the first shot of the overtime period, Justin Addamo netted his first goal of the postseason and gave Wheeling the series lead heading into game four the next night. (2-1 WHL) Game four was the fourth game played between Wheeling and Indy in five nights, with the Nailers winning another big game. How did they jump on the Fuel and come away with another huge victory? Well, it’s not exactly optimal to have what could have essentially been your entire series decided in less days than I spend at work in a week. To have four games played in five days, with the one day off being spent on a bus for five plus hours traveling between cities, doesn’t exactly portend both teams being at their optimal levels in that last game. And while I’m not saying that either team didn’t put everything they could out on the ice, their tanks had to be running pretty low by the time the third period rolled around, so it has to be somewhat understandable that there wasn’t much big-time action in this one. The first period was probably the slowest period they had played in the entire series to that point, as both teams combined for only 12 shots on goal (Wheeling ended up with the lead in that category 7-5). The Nailers were the only team able to find the back of the net in the frame, as Jordan Martel pocketed his third goal of the postseason, this time on the power play, to put Wheeling on top with under seven minutes left in the period. Neither team had much going for them the rest of the way, and the horn sounded to end the frame with the Nailers in the lead. The second period was more of what you saw in the first, with both teams getting seven shots on goal in the frame and neither team getting very many high danger chances. Both goalies were making the plays they needed to make to keep the score where it was until Martel showed up again, once again on the power play, and extended the Wheeling lead to 2-0 with under six minutes remaining. Once again, Indy just didn’t have the pushback needed to try to get back into it before the horn, and the Nailers took that lead into the final 20 minutes of the game. The final period of hockey in Wesbanco Arena for this series (game five is scheduled to be played in Cranberry on Saturday due to a schedule conflict at the arena over the weekend) was a little more explosive in more ways than one. Both teams were able to put nine shots on goal each, so the keepers were a little more active than they had been through 40 minutes. Jaxon Castor played possibly his most complete game of the series to this point and kept the puck in front of him all night, despite a push from Indy to try to tie the game when they pulled their goalie late. But Wheeling was able to get possession, and David Jankowski iced it with his first professional playoff goal into the empty net to put the game out of reach. Then, as the final horn sounded, a dirty play led to Matt Cairns of the Fuel apparently getting into a fight with himself (as he was the only player penalized with a fighting major according to the official stats of the game) and two other players from Indy received 10-minute misconduct calls after time had expired, with hopefully supplemental discipline coming from the league. With any luck, this won’t carry over into what we can only hope is the final game of the series (and the final game of the season for Indy) on Saturday, but it wouldn’t surprise me if their frustration gets the better of the Fuel players. The Nailers are now firmly in the driver’s seat of the series, leading three games to one, forcing the Fuel to win all three of the remaining games to hope to advance. What does Wheeling need to do in Cranberry on Saturday to finish this series off strong and not have to go back to Indy? As I said, playing four games in five days isn’t exactly optimal for good hockey. So, hopefully with a few days off before this series goes back on the “road” for a Wheeling home game (thanks to the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex for being available to be our home away from home), both teams can rest up and get ready to play some good hockey. And with that, hopefully the Nailers can go up there and finish this thing off and get ready for the winner of the Toledo-Kalamazoo series (the Walleye lead 3-0 with game 4 scheduled for Friday night). The most important thing for the Nailers in this game will be to not feed into the nonsense I’m sure the Fuel will try to do in this game. You saw at the end of game four how their frustrations are bubbling to the surface and threatening to take over. They were one of the most penalized teams in the league in the regular season, and they’re trying to maintain that lead here in the postseason. I say, let them. Let them play with too much emotion, let them get out of position, let them beat themselves. If you are a Wheeling player, your main task is to get to your own game and play within your system. That system has gotten you to a 3-1 series lead and the opportunity to advance. Use it to your advantage, let the Fuel lose their heads and cost themselves their postseason, and work hard. It’s time to finish this thing off and get ready for an even harder series against your biggest rival in the division finals. Let’s get up there and support these guys and show them that we want more playoff hockey here in the Friendly City come next week. Read the full article

Slapshot by Jami Davenport is now live!

Available on All Platforms BRYCE: I'm the guy the entire team loves to hate. Not only am I one of the Sockeyes' best players, but I make sure everyone knows it. No woman has ever held my heart until I meet Tia. She's everything I am, gorgeous, rude, arrogant with a capital 'TUDE, and we're both concealing soul-shattering pain. Together we're fire and ice, a combo I can't resist and one that has me worried I've finally succumbed to the worst four-letter word in the English language--LOVE.

TIA: After my mother's tragic death, I've lashed out and driven away everyone who ever cared about me. The pain is so great, I feel I don’t deserve friendship or love. Along comes Bryce. We're kindred spirits. He's as damaged as I am. Out of our grief, something special begins to sprout, but our tendency to destroy anything good in our lives threatens the best thing that's ever happened to us. Only Bryce refuses to give up while I'm finding old habits die hard. Barricading my heart is easier than taking the risk of being hurt again.

Book Rec Ask Meme (Part 5 of 7)

63. a book that actually made you laugh out loud

Heroic Wife Reborn by Mei Guo has a pretty cliche plot. You know the drill- badass lady gets transmigrated to pitiful historical woman on the verge of being murdered/raped/married off and proceeds to turn all expectations upside down. It's soooo predictable and I can never get enough of it. Wonderful trope 10/10.

Anyway, this iteration is low on scheming and high on shamelessness. The MC is a phenomenally strong airhead in a position of power (she is the only daughter of the emperor) and is mostly awed by the food options in this new non-ravaged, non zombie infested land and politely confused by everything else. She searches for things to eat and do, sowing chaos in her wake. Her father, the Emperor, is also very airheaded, but is generally fond of his daughter. They end up blatantly lying to powerful people (he's a very low level emperor and there are a lot of other more powerful states) in tandem a lot. It's so fucking shameless. It's so hilarious. Absolutely wonderful dad/daughter comedy duo. I laughed a lot.

QUOTE: Hard to keep track of these for webnovels. Which is a shame, because I cackled a lot. Also, it loses something out of context, probably.

71. your favourite LGBTQ+ fiction

I'm just saying that in general, faves are for people who have not read enough. Consume enough media and you'll have LISTS of faves, not a single fave. So, as always, I'm going to go with "thing I liked that I remember first" instead.

Unhallowed by Jordan L. Hawk takes place in a weird little town in the USA during the uh- I guess Late 1800s? Anyway, Victorian vibes, even if it's not strictly Victorian. A bookbinder with a monstrous (heh) secret joins a library in a creepy little seaside town, and in the process discovers that the town sees everything he's thought of to date as "monstrous" as "normal" or even "really super cool actually". It's technically a horror-mystery with a bunch of grisly deaths and madness-inspiring architecture and some genuinely creepy scenes. But it's also a lovely little story of being accepted for your kindness and goodness instead of being shunned for your potential world-endingness. Also, Noct is just the fucking cutest and I love him.

QUOTE:

“There is a dangerous magical book hidden in our library,” Mr. Quinn said, beaming as if announcing a special treat. “The nature of its magic is unclear, as is its location. Has anyone noticed any of the books behaving in an unusual manner recently?” One of the younger men raised his hand. “The Confession of Ovid Gilman spoke to me while I was dusting the other day.” “It speaks to everyone, Mr. White. Ovid Gilman murdered thirteen people and requested to have his confession bound in his own skin after he hanged. It is impossible to shut him up on the subject of his crimes. I asked for unusual occurrences.” Ves looked around to gage if Mr. Quinn was joking. He didn’t appear to be.

80. a book that reminds you of a loved one

Insert helpless handwaving here. So uh- I don't come from a family of readers. Like, at all. And precious few of my real-life friends are also readers, because reading for non-academic reasons is not really all that popular here.

One book that did come to mind is Book of Signs by John Peel, mostly because I borrowed it from a friend and we moved away from each other before I could give it back. But that's okay! She has books of mine too. Equivalent-ish exchange.

Anyway, Book of Signs is part 2 of this actually really interesting magical universe thingy, with a bunch of different worlds and stuff. I loved the heck out of it when I first read it as a kid, and it's thirdon the list of series I would import-buy if I didn't have so many rational arguments against it. (The first is The Encyclopaedia of Vernacular Architecture, and the second is Slapshots by Gordon Korman, if you're curious.) It's really fun sword-and-sorcery fantasy and I do want to read the whole thing someday.

QUOTE: Oh please, like I can even remember anything. But I'm going to go out on a limb and say how everything involving Shannara and the Centaurs were good because it has been DECADES, possbly and I still remember that bit fondly.
