You bring a good spirit to the team, Chowder!

@classystaches’ first illustration was so moving, I had to commission her for a companion piece! While it won’t be in the KS print set, it’s one of the most lovely reinterpretations of Check, Please! I’ve seen!! ;-;

Dex: Crushes are the worst. Nursey: Yeah. Whenever I’m near someone I have a crush on, I start acting stupid. Dex: You’re always acting stupid. Nursey: Yeah, don’t think about that too hard.

I have a massive need for a fic where Nursey keeps finding poems in his bag, notebook, on his door, etc. He assumes it’s someone else in his program cause, damn dude, they’re good poems. All originals about Nursey, unrequited love, crushes and so forth. He feels a bit like he’s being wooed but he has no clue who these poems are from. Turns out his secret admirer is none other than William Poindexter, most admired poet of his little town.

AU where Sam Wilson is Nursey’s cousin and needs a place for him and the rest of the team to hide so Nursey sneaks him into the basement of the Haus, cause really, who’s gonna suspect Captain America and Falcon crashing in a hockey frat Hause. ”Trust me you can trust these dudes. Several of these guys have secrets that the media would have a field day with and no one says a word.” Nursey reassures the team. Dex nods furiously in agreement, both in shock and awe at his fellow D-man’s famous relation. He’s gonna have words with Nursey later about omitting that bit of information. Bitty finds them first when he goes down to grab some of the extra flour in the storage closet. They’re all passed out except for Steve who is of course on watch. Bitty lets out a little squeak and Steve just holds up a shush finger and Bitty nods. He tip toes upstairs and sets to work baking the most amazing apple pie and chocolate chip cookies because, Captain-fucking-America is in his basement and he deserves the best.  Jack finds them second and this time Sam’s the one on watch. He looks around, he’s heard the news so he knows what’s going on, Jack’s not stupid. He crosses his arms and waits, the question left unsaid. Sam just answers, “Nursey” and Jack nods. He’ll have words with the frog about not telling him his favorite super hero and war hero is asleep in the basement and that Steve Rogers DROOLS when he sleeps. There’s a mandatory team meeting later to make sure the SMH Captain is always kept in the loop about things that affect his team. After the meeting Ransom and Holster find this strange dude with metal arm digging into Bitty’s cookies like he’s never tasted anything so delicious. The dude freezes when he sees them staring at them but relaxes when Rans says, “DUDE! You’d give Chowder a run for his money at goal with that arm!” The entire ragamuffin group (”You poor dears, you can’t stay in that dump of a basement forever”) is now perched in the kitchen, curtains drawn, so that Bitty can feed them a decent meal when Lardo and Shitty walk in. Two sets of “Holy Fuckballs, Batman!” show just how in sync Lardo and Shitty are. Scott just looks at them and shakes his head, “I’m Ant-Man, we’re not even in the same ‘verse. Get it right.”

Dex: (instigating) Chowder: touch the lobster, nursey!!!

“All right, I’m just gonna start reading it out loud.” “I’m not helping you.” “’However, it’s interesting—’” “—Dex, you can’t start an essay with however. What? Contractions? Why?”

[deniceford]

give me holster and ransom offering to find dex a winter screw date at team breakfast one morning with their spreadsheets and over enthusiasm and a long rambling discussion of all the girls they thought he would like and Dex says through like a bite of toast "I'm gay, though" and keeps eating like nothing has happened

Happy 30th Birthday Jack Zimmermann you Canadian Meatball!

I would wish him all the happiness in the world but I think he already has it. To my favorite fictional character's 30th birthday!
