Take Your Fandom Home With You Day. (What do you mean that's silly, shut up.)

Mar 28, 2011 13:01

Last night gyzym wrote this adorable thingy where Danny and Steve are living in her home state and doing home state-y things, and it got me to thinking - a few years ago somebody hosted this awesome "Take Your Fandom To Work Day" (which I still want to revive at some point, seriously) where you took your characters and sometimes your canon plots and ( Read more... )

Clap Ur Hands

"Canadians are weird," Alex says after the umpteenth person apologizes to him after he bumps into them. "It's like they have their own language, and two-thirds of it is different ways to say 'sorry'."

Scott tugs his coat tighter against him and pulls his toque down on his head. It's a ridiculous affair, white with a blue maple leaf on it, a symbol for the Toronto Maple Leafs, that Scott is only vaguely aware of as a hockey team, mostly because they lose every year without fail, but also because Scott doesn't actually give a shit about hockey. It was the last hat the store had that wasn't one of those goddamn hats with earflaps or pigtails, and Scott had to sacrifice a huge chunk of his pride to even consider wearing it in public.

"This," he says after a moment, with a side glance at Alex, who actually bought the hat with the earflaps because Australians don't have a word for 'shame' in their vocabulary, "coming from an AustralianAlex scowls over at Scott. "What's that supposed to mean ( ... )

only vaguely aware of as a hockey team, mostly because they lose every year without fail, but also because Scott doesn't actually give a shit about hockey. - I get funny looks a lot, because I am the same way. It's actually worse because our town has a Junior B team that 98% of the town loses their *minds* over, and I can't stand it.

"So." He cranes his head back to look up at the tower and shudders at the thought of even going up there. - Meeeeeeee, too, Scotty. Me, too.

...and now I will commence with the SHRIEKING OF GLEEEEEEEEEEE.

My brother pushed me onto the glass floor when I was like 11. I shrieked in rage and proceeded to chase him around the circle-y thingie.

I still haaaaaaaaaaaates it.

Haha, earflaps. Oh winter, how I hates you.

"There are laws," Alex argues, shivering as the wind whips around him, creeping into any openings it can. Winter in Toronto, as Scott is discovering, is a miserable fucking time. Everything is either snow and ice or slush and dirt, everybody's cold, wet, and pissed off, and so far, the only one who seems to be having any fun is Alex. Of course, Scott only enjoys himself when Alex enjoys himself, so technically, he's having a good time.

"Can we just go someplace warm?" Scott asks, knowing he sound tetchy (a word that previously only his father had ever used, and Jesus Christ, he's turning into his dad, and he realizes this in Toronto, goddamn his life), but really feeling too cold and shitty to care. "Whose brilliant fucking idea was it to visit Canada in the middle of winterAlex smirks at him because he's an asshole. "Yours," he says, his voice mild, even though Scott can practically hear the smug tone beneath it. "You were feeling all nostalgic for the Toronto of your debauched youth ( ... )

It takes them ten minutes to figure out tokens and Canadian money, the guy who sits next to Scott smells like pee while Alex strikes up a conversation with a nice old man from Guyana who tells him about his father fighting for the British army in World War II, they miss their stop four times, get on the wrong streetcar twice, and learn the ballet of jaywalking and darting between slow-moving cars on the downtown streets ( ... )
