Summer of Love

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/ahUZlg7

by samwhambam

EJ’s always known that there was something between Nate and Sidney Crosby. He knows how close they are and can only expect what they get up to during summers in Cole Harbour, but he’s never asked. It was none of his business before him and Nate got together and he hasn’t really thought to since.

But now they’re together, and he’s visiting Nate for the summer, and he sees how they look at each other. It’s worth a shot, honestly.

Watching shrek the musical and thinking about the Stevie/Twyla shrek au I wrote 🥰

So fucking proud of that one

[samwhambam]

I’ve officially forgiven Dublin Bus for all the times they were late or never showed up cos the pride Bus they done with proud dads was the most wholesome thing i’ve ever seen in my life & i still can’t watch it without tearing up omfg

[samwhambam]

❤️❤️

im still 😭😭😭

👀💖✨

sorry im so late with these, i got pulled into meetings and then we had to go pick up furniture and i didn’t have time to sit down and finish these till now!

👀 A fic that you love a normal amount

i answered this one previously, but another is Push and Pull by @samwhambam. i think about it like, daily. the animosity to love pipeline in it is just perfection and so, so perfectly balanced.

💖 A drabble that made you want 100K more words

i actually don’t read many drabbles for some reason. i can’t remember one for this, sorry! i know @yourbuttervoicedbeau has written a bunch and i always love their writing but I’m also super behind on their drabbles. but go read them all!

✨ A fic you wish you could read again for the first time

ummmmm. probably My Gambling Days Are Gonna End Like This by @whetherwoman. That’s the fic that really got my into SC fic in the first place and it’s so brilliant and perfectly balanced, I just remember reading it with so much anxiety and loving every minute of it. I’d love to experience that story unfolding again for the first time.

[samwhambam]

❤️❤️❤️

you’re making me 😭😭😭

💯 A fic that makes you think #writergoals

OOOOH so many, but!:

Falling Slowly by @thedidipickles

And in that same vein, Everything We Need by @samwhambam

They both just… the hazy, western vibes are so goddamn good in these. I love them both so much.

And literally everything by @my-nameless-bliss. The way they write emotions and thoughts and the prose is just… so good. I’m blown away every time.

[samwhambam]

Just did a deep dive on your SC fics — you are an icon and they were a joy to revisit! Love your rare pairs and your hockey fics. Thank you for the time and care you put into writing!

Omg thank you so much 😭😭 Ive put so much into my fics, so it makes me happy that even now, when I’m not writing, people are still enjoying my words 🥰🥰

if you see me writing EJ/Nate fic, no you didn’t

January was a rough month for me so I had to sit out of fic reading, but I’m so excited to give these a read 👀

Rare & Gen Rec Roundup - January 2022

Is it already February? Sounds fake. It’s been a busy start to the year, but we’ve compiled some of our faves that kicked off 2022. From New Year’s smut and soulmates to unexpected crossovers, January’s got a little bit of everything. We’ve even included a few pods that made our ears happy.

We hope you enjoy these as much as we did!

even on my worst days, feelin’ like my birthday (girl, you know you drivin’ me insane) by @turningtimeinthetardis, Rachel/Heather (background Alexis/Twyla), rated T, 801 words

Summary: Whenever Heather’s losing her mind, be it from the stubborn goats or a persnickety customer or David Rose’s almost impossible to predict, “general but very specific” cheese needs, she can always count on Rachel to help her find it.

Or, like, almost always.

For her, it’s close enough.

Rec [written by doingthemost]: This is a sweet little slice-of-life look into Rachel and Heather's relationship. I love how fandom makes minor characters come alive, and this is an exemplary instance. They didn't need tons of screen time for me to know that these two are great together!

--

Fresh Coat of Paint by @doublel27, Stevie/Ruth, rated G, 1020 words

Summary: A ding brings Stevie out of her thoughts and the picture of Ruth in the hallway is in the group chat with the caption “that face you make when the paint dries and you know you made good choices.”

What is not stated is you didn’t go with your fiancé’s apparently terrible choice of paint color. Stevie isn’t bitter about it. Can’t be bitter about a coin toss anyway.

It isn’t so much that Stevie hates the color of their new walls—it just happens to be that it’s colorless and the result of an agonizing process of looking through colorless colors, which was a waste of time. You just paint the damn walls white and get it done. Things had devolved further when David had gotten over his “Stevie’s getting a place in Toronto” funk to side with Ruth about paint colors.

or

Stevie and Ruth move into their new apartment and Ruth is beyond excited about the new paint color she chose. Stevie is still unsure.

Rec [written by doingthemost]: I love how the Stevie/Ruth ship gives us a chance to see how the Stevie we know and love from the show can continue to grow and find her own path through life through a relationship with someone who lovingly challenges her and gives her the space to do just that. This fic takes something as simple as a paint color and examines how it can mean so much more. Love this journey for Stevie!

Got This Feeling in My Body by norskheks, David/Jake, rated E, 3237 words

Summary: "You know, I'm a pretty open-minded guy. Why don't you stop by the shop sometime?"

In which David stops by the shop.

Rec [written by yourbuttervoicedbeau]: Y’all know I am Jake trash and this is straight fire. It’s also charming, fantastically in-character, and easily slots into canon. (And did I mention it’s hot as fuck?)

--

i rule with a velvet tongue by @hullomoon, Stevie/Ruth, rated E, 789 words

Summary: Ruth takes Stevie apart

Rec [written by doingthemost]: "Nothing says happy new year like porn right?" says the author's note, and the answer is YES. Stevie deserves a great body celebration, and this fic (and Ruth) delivers that in spades. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

--

If, Then by HungryHungryHippo, Patrick/Rachel, rated G, 1526 words

Summary: If-Then statement: A conditional statement (also called an If-Then Statement) is a statement with a hypothesis followed by a conclusion.

Soulmate

/sōl māt/

Noun: a person ideally suited to another as a close friend or romantic partner.

Well, they’re at least one of those things. They used to be anyway. Patrick and Rachel. Rachel and Patrick. Three distinct words that had morphed into one over the years. And now Patrick was on a mission to begin the messy business of disentangling them once again.

Rec [written by yourbuttervoicedbeau]: I will read every iteration of Patrick and Rachel’s relationship until the end of time, and this one HURT in the best possible way. It’s a snapshot of a brief moment in time, but the audience knows what a pivotal turning point this is (and what comes next), and that foreknowledge brings more weight to every carefully written line.

--

[Podfic] in her brown eyes (the ones she gave to me) as read by @godoflaundrybaskets (written by @sarahlevys), Stevie/Ruth, rated G, 600 words

Summary: "I'm dating someone. Her name is Stevie."

Her mother tsks under her breath. "Stevie, ha? Sounds like a boy's name."

A laugh escapes Ruth despite her nerves. "Well – yes. I guess so.

Ruth tells her mother about her new relationship.

Rec [written by petalwrites]: This short-and-sweet piece tells a more complex story than any 5-minute pod (or 600 words) has any right to. Ruth’s relationship with her mother and her queerness comes through so well in both the work itself and the voice reading it.

--

[podfic] kiss me beneath the mistletoe as read by @hullomoon, @schittposting, @thesleepyskipper (written by @landofsonlali), Alexis/Twyla, rated G, 2100 words

Summary: twyla's body magically produces plants whenever she feels any strong emotion, but she has it completely under control. that is, until she meets alexis rose. now what is she supposed to do with all these roses?

Rec [written by petalwrites]: I already loved this fic — such a unique, clever, and enchanting concept — but hearing it read aloud was such a delight… especially considering that the holidays felt like they were over far too fast for me this year. The characters’ voices were captured so beautifully and I don’t think I stopped smiling the entire way through!

--

live again (and love again) by blneberrys, David/Stevie, rated T, 3549 words

Summary: She’s angry. She’s angry all the time. The thought came to her fully realised a few weeks ago and now it won’t leave her. David is a closed book, padlocked, thrown into the ocean and Stevie has tried to fish it out but he's all creased pages and running ink. They don’t talk. David goes to his parties and his openings and returns with eyes blown wide and shaking hands. Stevie has never asked him a question. David would probably never answer.

The weight of it hits her at full force.

“I love you.” She says. She means it. It’s like something crushing down on her chest all at once.

*

In which the Roses sell the town at the end of season one, and David agrees to a one bedroom apartment with Stevie. It goes about as well as a relationship between two emotionally stunted people is expected to.

Rec [written by yourbuttervoicedbeau]: All I can say is OUCH. But like, the good kind of ouch. This is one of those canon divergences that could SO EASILY be canon. These are the characters in season one, before so much of their growth, and knowing what they become in canon makes this story’s knife twist all the harder.

--

[podfic] twist yourself around me as read by @hullomoon, oakleaf, @thesleepyskipper, & @sunlightsymphony (written by @stereopticons), David/Rebecca Bunch, rated T, 1597 words

Summary: He’s seen her here before, he’s pretty sure, but this time, her friends have left her sitting alone, having wandered off to dance or drink or fuck. His friends have done the same, and he’s just drunk enough and lonely enough to approach her. Not that he never approaches strangers in the clubs. On the contrary, he does it with enough frequency that it would be alarming if he stopped to think about it (so he never stops to think about it). Those interactions, though, rarely involve many words, all sweaty bodies and hands and tongues. Something about this woman makes him want to strike up a conversation. So he slides into the seat across from her.

Or: the angsty pre-canon SC/CXG crossover that no one asked for!

Rec [written by petalwrites]: The summary says “that no one asked for,” but I’m pretty sure I telepathically asked for this before the incredible stereopticons put it on paper. It’s the perfect crossover between two of my favorite characters, only made better by an impeccably read pod. David and Rebecca really are kindred spirits of sorts… and, in this pre-canon imagining, neither of them have any idea how different things will be someday.

Happy reading, friends!
