potato puns are the key to my heart

Howdy. 👋

Not only will there be a new volume of CHECK, PLEASE! in the works...

But CHECK, PLEASE!: YEAR FIVE will be...

…THE YEAR OF THE FROG. 🐸 🏒 ✨

Below, find a summary of what the newest volume of CHECK, PLEASE! will have to offer… highs, lows, and a whole new SMH!!

Samwell mens hockey’s favorite baker—and championship-winning senior captain—has graduated! How will the team survive? Problems abound as their new captain, Dex, learns that the effortless balance Bitty maintained on the team isn’t as easy as it looks. Then, ultra-aloof Nursey must finally drop his “chill” and get vulnerable in a senior poetry seminar. And to make matters worse, Chowder faces the dreaded ‘SSGS’ and is having the worst season of his college career. But when change arrives at Samwell hockey, it not only threatens to rip the team apart, but could destroy Dex, Nursey, and Chowder’s friendship forever. Before they graduate, to save their team and themselves, the three seniors must come together and ask the question: ‘What does Samwell hockey mean to you?’

I can’t reveal any more spoilers, but I’ll leave you with that question—what does Samwell hockey mean to you? Look out for more Check, Please! news in the months to come!

guys I definitely think Year 5 is gonna be Dex-centric:

he's the main current student who bakes since Bitty graduated

he's (afaik) the only character to have an Android phone

Britney’s Love Letter to the LGBTQ community🌈 

“This is my letter of love to all my LGBTQ fans. Continuously throughout my career, you’ve always been so vocal about what a positive impact I’ve had on you – that I’ve instilled joy, hope and love in you at times when there was none. That my music is an inspiration. That my story gives you hope.

But I have a secret to share with you. You see, it’s actually you that lifts me up. The unwavering loyalty. the lack of judgment. The unapologetic truth. Acceptance! Your stories are what inspire me, bring me joy and make me and my sons strive to be better people.

I love you.

Britney”

and we said what if nursey keeps suggesting girls from everywhere for dex to go on dates with? he has to ask ransom for help after he runs out because even though nursey knows a lot,,, of people,, ransom knows everyone

but dex keeps rejecting them and nursey is disappointed because he is nursing (,,ha) a crush on dex and just wants to make him happy even if it isn’t with him but dex keeps turning them down like “she sounds frustrating” or “she sounds boring”

ransom ends up saying dude pack it in and stop asking me for girl recommendations that boy is clearly Not Interested

so in the end they’re in the basement and dex is fixing the dryer for the 500th time and nursey is reeling off this list of girls when dex turns round and says “dude, i appreciate the, um, huge and ongoing effort but you do realise im gay right”

nursey drops everything he’s holding. just drops everything to the floor and he’s like “will im sorry i didn’t know” and he expects dex to fight him or chirp him or something but dex just smirks, turns back to the dryer and says “chill”

I'm so happy to finally share a fic I've been working on for literal years. Yes, It's a Check, Please fic, but unlike all of my others fics this one is focused on Alicia Zimmermann. The @wipbigbang finally motivated me to complete it, and @mapleapplepiee contributed two absolutely amazing art pieces that bookend the fic. Here's one of them!

Check it out on ao3!

The thing is, his follower base is delineated into two camps:

One camp is those who follow Jack the hockey star and husband to Eric Bittle. They end up get baffled that his account is a gallery with artsy shots of historic structures, old military sites, and some hockey.
