drove a thousand miles and played a show on no sleep

Nov 01, 2013 14:52

First things first! It is November, and thus time for NaNoWriMo. I'm trying to get back into the habit of writing, so if anyone's still here, give me a fandom, character or pairing, and three words. I might write a sentence, I might write a paragraph, or I might find a picture or gif that's appropriate. Yes? OK ( Read more... )

music, writing, oh life, sometimes it's like pulling teeth, that's why they pay me the not-so-big $, commentfic, hockey, what were we thinking?

I'm working on the Brad/Nate. In the meantime... do you need a warning for underage if it's just kinda gen-ish ( ... )

Nate hasn't spoken to Brad since the morning after his resignation was official. He didn't expect to, really. Brad has shit to do, and Nate packed up and moved across the country. But he's sitting at a table by himself at Tryst, and the smell of fresh-brewed coffee and glimpse of inked shoulder he sees when his server drops off his cafe au lait makes him unbearably homesick for something that's not even home, not really, not when Roland Park is just up the BW Parkway.

That doesn't stop him from pulling his phone out of his backpack and dialing a number he hasn't deleted from his contacts yet.

He hopes Brad picks up.

Brad/Walt - fishing vs surfing?

Or whatever (gen or otherwise) based on this photo of Paul Martin sewing. http://puckling.tumblr.com/post/65705104017/nebulia13-puckyouintheglass-he-cooks-he

Brad doesn't see the point of the kind of fishing that Walt normally likes to do. He went fishing with Walt and his dad when they visited him during leave, and he's never doing that again. No waves, nothing happening, just sitting with the lines out. Just, no.

Walt, on the other hand, has tried surfing, both before and after he got together with Brad. It's just not happening. He got through BRC, he got through a half-dozen specialty courses, but he cannot keep his balance on a waxed board, and he's better in the water when he means to be in the water.

The only time they actually fish together is when Brad books a vacation in Baja, and they go deep sea fishing. There are a bunch of people on the boat, and there's always something happening, and it's a day out on the water in the sun. They both agree they'd do it again. (Walt isn't surfing; he doesn't care how gorgeous the private beach is. Have you SEEN the Discovery Channel specials about the sharks that spawn in the Sea of Cortez?)

I have yet to get to an IceHogs game this year, but I'll get to one eventually!

They scored three goals in the first period, and then they were pretty lackadaisical until the Wolves tied it up, then they sparked again. A bunch of them are up with the Hawks again right now. :)

If you do, we should get together!

You'd come to Rkfd for a game?!

I typically go with my brother and/or cousin, but we usually buy tickets at the door. It'd be fun to meet up at the arena, get tickets together, and hang out!

Not as often as Wolves games, but it'll happen, probably for a weekend game or two this season.

why_me_why_not is going to be visiting this week, and we're talking about taking her boys to see the IceHogs. They are playing the Wild, which means that if we do, I'm going to have to wear my Aeros jersey. :)

Prompt: Jeff Skinner/Justin Faulk, stop getting injured.

or if you've been following how hard Tripp Tracey's been shipping them, Jeff Skinner/Ryan Murphy/Elias Lindholm, driving, guitars, food.

I have NOT been following that! But it gives me ~ideas about how Jeff would have distracted Ryan during his suspension for the hit on Dorsett if he'd gotten one instead of being fined. :))

Tripp has been shipping them SO hard. He calls them the three amigos and never shuts up about how much they've been hanging out, down to asking them questions about how much they care about each other. Really. Also, Ryan Murphy just ships them a lot himself: http://instagram.com/ryanmurphy24

Those sound like excellent ideas.

Bless 20-yr-old boys and their love of the internet.

Now I want to sit back and imagine all the teenage boy shenanigans while they and Gabe Landeskog were together at Kitchener.
