Hi everyone I wrote a Check Please fic a while ago for the third volume of @omgzineplease, now that there’s a fifth OMGCP book coming out next year I figure now’s the time to put my first ever fic up on AO3.

The Frogs Are Back

Chowder had noticed things had been different between Nursey and Dex since the end of last season. A preseason road trip shortly after their return to Samwell ensued.

Their new fondness of each other was even clear as Chowder spotting them heading towards Annie’s from his table. For a start, they’d walked there from the haus, and they were laughing at something one of them must’ve said. Even like… six months ago, they would’ve driven down in Dex’s truck, not said a word, and maybe even argued about something on their way through the door.

The bell over the door rang and the pair walked in.

“Shut the fuck up, Nurse.”

I JUST realized I never posted my full piece for @omgzineplease Issue #2!!!!

Alright here y'all go

The third volume you've all been waiting for is here! Following the success of our previous two volumes, the Zine, Please! team is proud to announce we'll be bringing you another volume full of Check, Please! goodness made by the fans for the fans!

This volume's theme is.... #TripleTrouble!

'Swawesome things come in threes! For this volume, we want you all to explore the shenanigans, celebrate the triumphs, and dive into the inner workings and dynamics of all your favorite Check, Please! trios!

There's endless trios to choose from, some more familiar than others. I mean, who can forget the most iconic canon trios? We're talkin' Ransom, Holster, Lardo! We're thinkin' Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot! We're screeeamin' Chowder, Dex, Nursey!

If you're willing to go outside the box, think about trios you'd love to see together who the fandom hasn't seen! Who among us is brave enough to put the Jack's Type Trio of Bitty, Camilla, and Kent in a room together? Hell, we could even take a dive into Deep Fandom Lore that OG fans may remember with the No Chill Trio of Lardo, Nursey, Kent.

Be it everyone's faves with polyfrogs, tadpoles content, or unlikely trios we'd all kick and squeal about, it's all welcome for this volume!

Gather your fave Check, Please! trios, go forth, and wreck havoc with #TripleTrouble!

Sign-ups open October 15, 2024!!!

Contributor Feature: Ciarán

We are so proud to make a feature post highlighting one of our previous contributors. Today's contributor is Ciarán! The art you see above was featured in Zine, Please! Vol. 3: #TripleTrouble! #TripleTrouble was all about exploring the shenanigans, celebrating the triumphs, and diving into the inner workings and dynamics of all your favorite Check, Please! trios.

Let's Hear A Bit From This Amazing Creator!

Can you tell us a bit about your piece? ''if i remember correctly, it was inspired by some boy band sort of stuff i had gotten attached to at the time – the idea of a jack + lardo + shitty matching outfits photoshoot was also just really entertaining to me and i knew in my head they each had distinct colors to use for the suits (at least to me lol) :)''

How did you feel about the journey of participating in this volume? ''i have a tendency to change my mind on ideas the moment something else fun pops into my head so a lot of the journey was figuring out what appealed most, but i think in the end i had a lot of fun getting to that point and eventually seeing the volume in its entirety !!!!'' Tell us a bit about yourself and where our audience can find you! ''i’m a really casual and for fun artist who makes things because it’s exciting to see ideas actually turn into something i can see, and i love having a way to appreciate the media and characters i enjoy :)) i’m cowbeaus on most social medias but currently using elclon as a handle on my main tumblr blog !!!''
