not a bot just too lazy for an icon

-love for the minnesota wild, hatred for the avs and stars, neutrality for most other teams

-rpf (usually hugheses and some tzjd)

-fic; usually i do a post over here and it is also all consolidated here on ao3

i am extremely deeply in love with genet quinn, I can't imagine him as anything else now!! I'm always going to associate him with a genet haha

I love how you've portrayed his relationship with his brothers, and the kind of outsider pov we get of them, and matt and fabes worrying if minnesota isn't enough/if they've done something/if they're not enough!

I also love how it's always so clear that those three are like a Unit™ and everyone else no matter how close, will be an outsider!! Like yess they're weird and intense and extremely co-dependent

and ahhh the comparisons of jack with quinn, and the shock that actually no they couldn't be more different when it comes to their shifted forms!! but they're actually kind of similar too!! and i love how careful boldy is lmaoo, how his interal dialogue is just don't fuck this up don't make it a big deal because he's drawing from his experience with jack also!!

and ahhh the scene of quinn finally shifting around them and then going around each one, to show he's comfortable, it had me cooing and making weird noises ksjshk

AND THE LAST SCENE AT THE WILD GET TOGETHER!!! I HAVE NEVER LOVED ANYTHING MOREE!!! I love the idea of quinn as a little spoiled genet, eating his weight in berries and brock enabling him djsheidhkdbdkd, that was perhaps my favourite along with him riding on moose's antlers!! he would be such a little asshole knowing that he has the team wrapped around his finger on the ice but also off of it, and like not to the level as with his brothers but he would 100% be making the most of his shifted time lmao, I can imagine him jumping on nick and plotting to scare people or just prank them (both the folignos give me huge pranker vibes and quinn would be down for it as long as he gets away with it lmao also I just love the mental image of two big animals letting a tiny ass genet whisper in their ears and the entire time it's just plotting to steal the moon!!) but yess he would be such a menace omg, and I can Imagine the wild having internal bets like "fuck you I'm his favourite he let me pet him 5 times this week!!" Or "he spent an hour napping in my fur jacket that I got from russia it's his favourite napping spot now that makes me his favourite" and quinn would know about this somehow and he won't ever say anything because he's having too much fun being spoiled. jack and luke shake their heads at him saying this is the greed they talk about in their bible but they're pleased secretly

thank you so much for gifting us the shifter au, it (and you) have genuinely given me so much joy!!! it's a treat to read!!

ANON U ARE SO SWEET WAHHH

i am SO glad you like the fic and the au!!! genet quinn is very near and dear to my heart and i am soso glad that other people are also liking him 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

i am deeply deeply fond of how fucking Weird the hugheses are about each other and i think quite honestly that it's difficult for someone who loves them but Isn't part of that little group to not feel a little bit excluded/inadequate at times no matter How understanding they are/how much they respect it; with this circumstance in particular, boldy and faber kind of get a shock that they weren't expecting learning that quinn actually Isn't open with them the way they've been thinking he's starting to be, and there's this whole part of him that he's been hiding. that's tricky! and i think that they both feel some amount of guilt/responsibility for not realizing that it Was discomfort, because they're going off of what they know from other shifters, which is that they Don't shift as much as quinn does! it's just a messy situation and no one feels good about it but they're doing their best lol

and yesss the differences between how quinn and jack approach shifting, i'm so glad you like that because it's one of my favorite bits lolll. i think in this universe there is a definite tendency for shifters who've gone through the ntdp to be a little fucked up by it in different ways, and for jack (and to a lesser extent trevor) that ends up being a distaste for shifting because it feels like a loss of control, whereas for quinn, he kind of uses it as a way to hide a lot of the time (partially because he's so much smaller and so he Can hide in a way that jack can't!) which jack finds fucking insane and kind of unsettling lmao. and then of course if you compare both of them to someone like leon, who is european and also did not go through the national team development puppy mill, their whole vibe is even More insane bc he's just. fine and chill about it 😭😭

i am soooo glad you liked that last scene, i was hoping that it worked as the emotional payoff for this fic :PP i think that quinn is like,,, sort of accustomed to people being very gentle and careful and indulgent with him in genet form and it's 75% jack's fault lmao. but also who wouldn't be!! he's just a little guy!! and especially for the wild who know it's SUCH a gesture of trust for him to be so comfortable with him and actually Let them coddle him like that, they are over the moon to be able to lmaooo. i definitely think they'd be kinda smug about him letting them do it

i am also soso glad you liked his vibe with the folignos, i fucking ADORE the mental image of this teeny tiny genet with a pair of guys who weigh like fuckin 250x as much as him but you Know they'd be so chill and indulgent with him. it would probably take him a bit to be this confident about it but i do think quinn eventually takes to taking little naps in moose's antlers :] best of both worlds (up high And being held)

i am an ellipsus guy! used to be google docs before i Saw The Light and now everything is on ellipsus lol. i find that it's more trustworthy, nicely streamlined and does exactly what i need it to, and i use the nature theme so it's this very nice soothing green color :]
