Happy Pride!!! đ
Here's a quick drawing of my favorite ship!
this isn't captured well in screenshots, but underrated Dusteve moment is the fact that Dustin starts shaking his head in panic before Steve even finishes explaining his thought because he already knows what Steve is trying to say
Jonathan keeps being like what?? what are you trying to say?? and Dustin is already preparing himself for Steve driving full-speed at the gate because they understand each other that well
also he has no excuse to act all panicked as if he WOULDN'T come up with a plan that reckless

There is a kid out there who did every single one of his school essays and projects and short stories and friendly introductions at the beginning of the year about Shane Hollander. He did his book reports on the books Shane recommended in interviews. He saved his money to buy that stupid cologne Shane advertised. He got a puck from Shane once at warm ups and he slept with it in his bed for three weeks. He writes his moms name on his stick tape because Shane did it first. He watches the Olympics in awe. He gets into fights with kids at school about whose a better hockey player and its Shane all the way, no matter what the other kids told him or what their moms and dads said. Shane is the best.
And this kid did not have a lot of friends. His teachers thought he wasn't very smart because he made everything about hockey. And they dismissed him when he struggled with math and reading. "if you could just put some of your hockey energy into school, then maybe you would get better." His classmates laughed at the hockey themed valentines day cards him and his mom had to hand make because nowhere was selling hockey themed valentines day cards. And they laugh at him when he repeats the same thing over and over about "getting pucks deep, pucks deep, pucks deep." When he would play all by himself on the yard pretending he was skating, picking up any big stick he could find on the ground, they'd push him around. "Can we play? We'll be defenders" and ram him and take his stick. And he'd just go through all the penalties they would have just gotten over and over again until he can calm down. He celebrated every birthday at the ice rink in his full hockey gear even though he didn't really have classmates showing up. Not for lack of invite.
And his parents try to steer him away from it. They try and watch new sports, they try and get him to watch kids shows, get into things kids his age like, but all he wants to do is watch reruns of the metros cup wins. Wants to wear his hat backwards with his black shirt because that's how Shane looks in the interviews. Memorizes the answers he gives in french even though this kid never learned french in school. And its useless. This kid is hooked and they just kinda have to ride this wave.
So when the announcement comes for the Game Changers camp, these parents do absolutely everything to get him there. They don't care what it takes, this is like a light for all of them really in the midst of all the bullying at school and the meltdowns at home and the obsessive routines that fall apart if even one thing is out of place.
And they explain to the camp that their boy might have a hard time. Might need some time to adjust. That he struggles with math, and reading, and can get caught up in all the rules sometimes. Preemptively trying to say "he's not a bad kid. he's trying his best."
So at the end of the first day, his parents are prepared for a meltdown. Its new, its a lot of kids, the rink can get loud and cold, and he doesn't always do well with transitioning out of hockey. He's hard to pull off the ice at home.
And they can see some upset under the surface when they arrive. He clearly doesn't want to go home. Thats no surprise.
What is a surprise is the way Shane gets down on one knee next to where the boy is sitting upset on the ground. He doesn't move to touch him. He just gets down and the two of them softly have a chat. The boy is tugging on his hair and nodding at what Shane says. And eventually he stands and the parents walk over to them.
"You must be the parents. Its good to meet you," Shane says softly. "I was just going over some things about tomorrow. So that way he would know the schedule."
And they can see their son isn't quite happy, still clearly exhausted. He'll nap in the car and be grumpy at dinner. But he is much more regulated than they expected him to be.
"And, I was telling him about my schedule when I go home. About getting some quite time, making sure I can decompress. I think that's what all good hockey players need, right buddy?"
"Right buddy," he repeats.
And for all the understanding that seems to be there, his parents are just grateful that of all the things their kid could have a special interest in, its Shane Hollander.
Steve would be so offended if he found out that some people don't believe him and Dustin are friends because they think that Steve is too cool. Like, what the hell? Have you met Dustin? He's a twerp but that kid is awesome.

Writing Tip: Donât Be Afraid of Mixing Dialogue and Action
So Iâve been reading a lot of amateur writing lately, and Iâve noticed what seems to be a common problem: dialogue.Â
Tell me if this looks familiar. You start writing a conversation, only to look down and realize it reads like:Â
âIâm talking now,â he said.Â
âYes, I noticed,â she said.Â
âI have nothing much to add to this conversation,â the third person said.Â
And it grates on your ears. So much âsaid.â It looks awful! It sounds repetitive. So, naturally, you try to shake it up a bit:Â
âIs this any better?â He inquired.Â
âIâm not sure,â she mused.Â
âI definitely think so!â that other guy roared.Â
This is not an improvement. This is worse.Â
Now your dialogue is just as disjointed as it was before, but you have the added problem of a bunch of distracting dialogue verbs that can have an unintentionally comedic effect.Â
So hereâs how you avoid it: You mix up the dialogue with description.Â
âIsnât this better?â he asked, leaning forward in his seat. âDonât you feel like weâre more grounded in reality?âÂ
She nodded, looking down at her freshly manicured nails. âI donât feel like a talking head anymore.âÂ
âRight!â that annoying third guy added. âAnd now you can get some characterization crammed into the dialogue!âÂ
The rules of dialogue punctuation are as follows:Â
Each speaker gets his/her own paragraph - when the speaker changes, you start a new paragraph.Â
Within the speakerâs own paragraph, you can include action, interior thoughts, description, etc.Â
You can interrupt dialogue in the middle to put in a âsaidâ tag, and then write more dialogue from that same speaker.Â
You can put the âsaidâ tag at the beginning or end of the sentence.Â
Once youâve established which characters are talking, you donât need a âsaidâ tag every time they speak.Â
ETA: use a comma instead of a period at the end of a sentence of dialogue, and keep the âsaidâ tag in lower caps. If you end on a ? or !, the âsaidâ tag is still in lower case. (thanks, commenters who pointed this out!)Â
Some more examples:Â
âIf youâre writing an incomplete thought,â he said, âyou put a comma, then the quote mark, then the dialogue tag.âÂ
âIf the sentence ends, you put in a period.â She pointed at the previous sentence. âSee? Complete sentences.âÂ
âYou can also replace the dialogue tag with action.â Extra guy yawned. âWhen you do, you use a period instead of a comma.â
So what do you do with this newfound power? Iâm glad you asked.Â
You can provide description of the character and their surroundings in order to orient them in time and space while talking.Â
You can reveal characterization through body language and other nonverbal cues that will add more dimension to your dialogue.Â
You can add interior thoughts for your POV character between lines of dialogue - especially helpful when theyâre not saying quite what they mean.Â
You can control pacing. Lines of dialogue interrupted by descriptions convey a slower-paced conversation. Lines delivered with just a âsaidâ tag, or with no dialogue tag at all, convey a more rapid-fire conversation.Â
For example:Â
âWeâve been talking about dialogue for a while,â he said, shifting in his seat as though uncomfortable with sitting still.Â
âWe sure have,â she agreed. She rose from her chair, stretching. âShall we go, then?âÂ
âI think we should.âÂ
âGreat. Letâs get out of here.âÂ
By controlling the pacing, you can establish mood and help guide your reader along to understanding what it is that youâre doing.Â
I hope this helps you write better dialogue! If you have questions, donât hesitate to drop me an ask :)

remember how in bbc merlin the titular bbc merlin had a drag persona where he used magic to transform himself into a bitchy old queen in order to yell at/hand out life lessons to arthur. and this was not supposed to be a gay metaphor

your month, your mini cat!
ilya: shane. why did your dad buy me 3 costco sized boxes of nerdâs gummy clusters?
shane: ??? what? you said you liked them the other day?
ilya: yes? but i donât need 600 thousand of them?
shane: *shrugs* thatâs just what dadâs do ilya???
then ilya starts tearing up and shane has to sit in his lap and caress his hair until he stops
Before Shane and Ilya move in together, Shane's at Ilya's place lamenting the lack of ingredients. As he looks for any kind of vegetable and protein he can cobble together for a meal, Shane's like, "Baby, when's the last time you cooked? Is this why you order so much takeout?".
And Ilya responds with a shrug and, "Maybe. Maybe I don't like to be alone with the knives too much."
And Ilya means it as a joke, Shane knows he does, but there's something hollow and scraped raw in Ilya's usual shit-eating grin that makes Shane's blood run cold. He immediately strides across the kitchen to pull Ilya into his arms. And Ilya tries to scoff at first, says that Shane's being so over-dramatic about a joke, but Shane just holds tighter, until Ilya's breathing goes funny against his chest in that way that tells him he's trying not to cry.
Shane doesn't trust himself to speak right now. The weight of what it would mean to lose this man is too much for him to talk about again, so instead he just holds him and hopes that this is enough to tell Ilya what he means. And when he eventually feels Ilya let go and sob against him, Shane guides both of them to the floor, pulls him into his arms, buries a hand in the back of his curls and just lets him cry until he's had enough.
When Ilya's tears finally stop, Shane presses a kiss to his forehead, trying to soothe down the crease that's etched between his eyebrows. As much as Ilya needed that release, Shane can see by the panic and embarrassment on his face that he needs a way back out of it now.
Shane rolls his eyes dramatically. "Fine, jesus, we'll get takeout then."
And Ilya looks up at him with a small grateful smile before letting out a shaky laugh. "See? I would say anything to get you to buy me McDonald's."

ANYWAY!! shane and ilya have kids via surrogate. ilya sort of makes an argument for not using his sperm on account of his depression and genetics and shane is like hey, shut the fuck up? end of conversation. also shane imagined a toddler with ilyaâs unruly mop of curls one single time and now he will crash out if he doesnât at least get a shot at making that dream come true. they do the nph/david burtka thing and each fertilize one donor egg and itâs a long shot that theyâll both take but theyâre trying it anyway and they also manage to turn it into a sort of competition because they are freaks like that. both eggs take, obviously, thru the power of true love and the universeâs own unwillingness to pick a winner between the two of them. ilya full on fucking cries one summer when the kids are 3 and theyâre getting them ready for bed after a long day outside at the cottage and he notices the tiniest smattering of freckles across the bridge of his toddlerâs nose. shane of course gets his curly haired baby because he is the #1 I Get Everything I Want Through the Power of Visualization motherfucker this world has ever seen.
The Cens are in the locker room after a pretty light practice, the season not yet in full swing, and the topic turns to married life, as it often does.
Ilya and Shane mostly stay quiet, giving each other pointed looks when Bood and Wyatt swap stories about their fucking awesome wives. That is untilâŚ
âYeah but like, Roz and Hollzy have the most ideal situation.â
Thereâs a mix of eyebrow raising and general murmurs of agreement, half of the team unsure if this is Holmbergâs way of coming out.
âWhat do you mean?â Shane asks, ever one to ignore a social rule.
âYou spend all day together kicking ass and being the best at hockey, and then you get to go home together and be and love and shit but also still talk hockey.â Holmberg sighs and stares into his locker a little wistfully. âI wish I was gay so I could have a hockey husband.â
The team is quiet for a minute, some of the younger members nodding in sage agreement. Bood even looks like itâs an intriguing idea.
âWhy donât you date a PWHL player?â
Wyatt says it with it much fuss, shoving his pads into his bag unceremoniously. Holms, however, looks like heâs just been struck by lightning.
âSay that again.â
Wyatt turns to the kid, eyebrows raised like heâs confused by the reaction.
âYou know that the PWHL exists, right?â
Holmsberg is too thunderstruck to scoff.
âYeah. The Charge. TheyâreâŚoh my god.â
And thus starts the social media scrolling to figure out which Charge players are 1) single, 2) in Holms age range, and 3) into men
