this is a pretty good summary of what Amsterdam is like
THERE IS SO MUCH GOING ON IN THIS VIDEO WHAT WAS UP WITH THE GUY RUNNING AT THE VERY BEGINNING AND THE ONE CAR HIP-CHECKING THE OTHER INTO A WATERY OBLIVION AND THE SPEEDBOAT AND AAAAAAAAAAAH
And then they destroy the stoop on that building, and just drive off???
anon i do not know i really don’t!!!!!!! we gotta Remedy This but first we’re remedying it with some hcs bc i am SWAMPED with fics to write but like…. if anyone wants to write some nhl!bitty fics……. and like tag me……. that would be amazing
oooooookay so let’s establish that there are a lot of teammates in bitty’s year. we don’t KNOW any of them, but they’re there, trust me
so scouts start coming in bitty’s 4th year and there’s a whole POOL of people who they might be coming for so nobody knows (although everyone has their own opinions about who they’re there for)
samwell is going p far, they get to the frozen four and i have no idea whether they win or not idk not relevant rn BUT THEY GET TO THE FROZEN FOUR
i cannot decide if i think bitty would be captain or not? like he’d be a great captain but i could also see him not getting it, idk it depends. let’s compromise and say he’s an a and there’s a captain who is not him? but he gets a dolled up jersey so that’s fun
aNYWAY. most people think that the scouts are either there for the as-of-yet-unnamed captain or for chowder (who is pro material fight me) a year early (i don’t know how these things work but i’m pretty sure that’s possible)
aaaand maybe one of the scouts is there for the captain but like? most of them are there for bitty?
and a lot of the team is like ‘I KNEW IT’ or well, they didn’t but they’re not really surprised bc bitty is really good even though nobody (including him) has really envisioned him going pro after graduation
Fantasy AU where Nursey is the prophesied hero on a quest to finally take down the tyrannical rule of the Chads. Dex is a fisherman who gets roped into sailing Nursey across a sea for his quest and unwillingly becoming the salty sidekick on the adventure
Some more on this AU
Bad Bob was the loving, kind king before the Chads took over
Bob, his wife Alicia, and his son Jack were like, the cutest family ever everyone loved them
The Chads were able to take over because they somehow got their hands on something that gave them ice powers
When the Chads take over, the Zimmermanns take refuge with the Bittles, a family of bakers a few towns over from the capitol.
(This got really long so the rest is under the cut)
i’ve been thinking a lot about size differences and how jack is massive and bitty is not and i Need™ to talk about it more, because the black and white facts of this are very important to me as a writer and i’m weirdly defensive about it (athletic family, more knowledge about athletic bodies than an amateur should have, driving ferocity to be Accurate and Right all the time).
first off, there is the height thing to address: jack is 6′1″. bitty is 5′6.5″. it’s not a huge difference, sure. it’s only the length of a subway sandwich, which i think we can all agree is not super impressive. However. it is a noticeable difference, and a difference that both of them are obviously aware of. bitty is often shown reaching up to jack, or jack is shown bending down to bitty.
regardless of their marginal height difference, however, there is a Much More Important aspect to their size difference – and this one they are both very, very aware of. [clue: bitty’s an ex-figure skater, and jack’s a fuckin professional hockey player]
I just think someone should not criticize his boyfriend’s fashion sense
Mihashi, mentally: ok Do Not tell these people you hardly know Everything about you
Mihashi: so anyway wanna hear, in extensive detail, how fucked up i am
jack likes to feel huge and just be all over bitty. some ways this happens:
bitty is standing there mid-conversation w someone and jack comes up behind him and drapes himself over bitty’s shoulders and settles all his body weight on bitty’s back
bitty’s knees buckle
“jack whY”
“increase your weight class bittle”
must be big spoon (”jack let me breathe” “no”)
bitty sitting on the couch and jack just throws himself across bitty’s lap #highdrama
sitting on bitty’s lap at parties (”you’re crushing me” “stop skipping leg day”)
bending down in exaggerated ways to kiss bitty and leaning down over him and wrapping his arms around him
bitty is asleep in bed and jack comes home late (roadie? game? who knows rly) and just flops on top of bitty
first time it happens bitty thinks he’s being smothered
he wakes up and screams
jack is like “shut up i’m trying to sleep”
any time bitty is lying down anywhere. reading on the couch? studying on the floor? sunbathing outside? must lie on top of him.
Must Pick Bittle Up™
fireman lifts
bridal style
just throw him over your shoulder it’s fine
i see you’re sitting on that bench bittle. well NOW you have to wrap your legs around my waist haha.
i can’t be bothered bending down so i’m just going to lift you up to kiss you okay
oh you’re sitting over there. well if i pull you across the couch, you’ll be sitting in my lap. imagine that.
(”jaCK ZIMMERMAnn let me live”)
“here sit between my legs and lean back against my chest”
making out? cool cool cool. would be better if i were lying on top of you though.
lying with his face mashed into bitty’s chest, bitty playing with his hair
“you’re drooling on my shirt, honey”
“shh no i’m not”
“ew”
folding bitty into a little ball and curling around him entirely (”jack my knees hurt” “let me love you”)
bitty pancaked across jack’s chest this time
“are you lying on top of me? i can’t actually tell because it’s like someone laid a tiny cat on my chest. or like a feather or something.”
AU where Jack’s mom is a terrible baker and finds Bitty’s blog, who explains things very easily, is incredibly charming and doesn’t make her feel like an idiot when she gets things wrong, so she slowly starts gaining confidence and improving a lot.
She becomes a true, 100% fan, when her simple totally on point brownie recipe, kicks the ass of Sharon’s from down the street at the next neighbor party. That horrid woman who was convinced she married Bob for money and tells everybody about it.
As if there was enough money in the world that could make someone put up with Bob’s snoring, that she hasn’t smothered him with a pillow yet is true love.
She finds his other blog, the one where he talks about himself and Alicia loves hearing about Bitty’s life. He does hockey and while she cannot picture this tiny adorable boy slamming himself against guys like her husband and son do, is just another thing that makes her feel a connection.
just moving along like everyone else
