hi! my name is everest, i'm in my 20s, i live in the midwest USA.
i post/reblog heated rivalry, top gun/TGM, twister(s), the PWHL (go frost), and occasionally the winnipeg jets (and other teams that i'm sympathetic to for college hockey-related reasons). sometimes there's pictures of the sky, too.
wanna be friends? cool, me too! send me an ask or a message, tag me in WIP wednesday chains or other posts, anything goes.
my blog is not childproofed. do not follow or interact with me if you are under 18.
(and no, i don't actually believe in chemtrails. i'm a big fan of basic thermodynamics and the upper-level wind.)

highlight reel of my fics below the cut!
top gun / top gun maverick
built my life around you (goose/maverick, t, 9.9k)
fluff, love confessions, and notes from a secret admirer over the years. disabled goose, smitten mav, shithead teenager bradley.
i'm gonna sleep ('cause you live in my daydreams) (carole/goose/maverick, e, 3.7k)
goosemavcarole threesome with a light sprinkling of somno. exactly what it says on the tin.
above us, the stars (hollywood/wolfman, m, 2.5k)
hollywolf under the stars, on sea and on land. kinda prose-y, super sweet.
true north (hangman/rooster, t, 5.9k)
newlyweds road tripping and sightseeing along I-94. it's a hangster relationship study but more importantly it's a vessel for my "slider is from fargo" conspiracy theory headcanon.
heated rivalry
hold me like your cards (close to your chest) (hollanov, e, 2.8k)
ilya feels some type of way about shane's tits. i found out the hard way that i can't write porn without feelings. bon appetit.
full attention (hollanovpike, e, 8.1k)
operation put hayden pike in the cuck chair was a mixed success, in that he did not stay there for very long but a good time was had by all.
twisters
wash, rinse, repeat (boone/javi/kate/tyler, e, 15.3k)
curly hair routines, shower handjobs, and polyamorous storm chasing practices. i would say this was the story of my life for a while, but i cut off my hair specifically to avoid the curl care.
collision, coalescence (boone/javi, e, 3.3k)
scott is javi's pseudo-ex, boone is javi's seasonal situationship, one of the tags is "homoerotic tailgate practices" and i think that about sums it up.
but ykw at least i'm not on mount everest. at least i'm not paying tens of thousands of dollars to slowly suffocate in a 300-person line at the gates of hell. never in my life will i have to be steered in a hypoxic stupor through the maze of poop and corpses atop mount everest. on this earth a lot of horrible things can happen to you without your permission but there are a few that you have to opt into. you can just say no thanks! and be guaranteed never to have to be on mount everest. much to be grateful for actually
I hope in season 2 if we get an episode from another couple’s perspective they have a moment watching Shane & Ilya interact & they’re like. #WhatDatMean
At the All Star Game Eric’s watching Shane Hollander nod his head towards the elevators then seeing Ilya Rozanov follow after him like an excited puppy #WhatDatMean
i lied im not sleeping im thinking about sugar daddy shane buying a $250,000 watch for ilya and ilya wearing it everyday and then they’re getting ready in the locker room for practice and someone whistles super loud and is like “damn cap, you spent my entire salary on that watch or what” and ilya takes it off gently and places it in his duffle and looks up at all the boys looking at him “no, shane bought it for me.” and then everyone is hootin and hollering and shane walks in from the physio room smiling at the antics asking everyone what’s going on and someone is like “roz just told us you’re his sugar daddy.” and shane rolls his eyes and starts getting his skates out “so i like buying pretty things for my pretty husband, sue me.” and ilya is like “you think i am pretty?” and shane frowns cutely “of course baby.” and then the entire locker room starts gagging and someone yells out GAAAY and then ilya is like “i will show you gay! Shane take off your pants.” And then shane throws a sock at him. anyways they fuck after practice and shane calls Ilya his pretty boy when he rides him.
wordle in 1: joyless. it is statistically inevitable that your go-to starting word will be the solution one day, and this is no more of an accomplishment than running a random number generator once a day until it gives you "1"
wordle in 2: misleading. you may think that this is the highest achievement, but it suffers from the same disappointment of a lucky guess that wordle in 1 causes. your second guess is a strategic choice, but ending the game this early just isn't interesting
wordle in 3: the peak. your starting word gave you some information and then your second guess contextualized that information into a solvable position. your sharp intuition and restraint is what truly separates you as above average.
wordle in 4: statistically average, par for the course, the baseline against which all other wordles are compared.
wordle in 5: you're sweating. you made a mistake at some point, or your starting word was effectively useless, and it took an extra guess above average to close things out. wordle in 5 comes as a relief.
wordle in 6: crushing humiliation. you have technically succeeded but at what cost. your thirty square grid will stare back at you like barrels of a firing squad. a failure in all but name.
wordle failure: never your fault. what kind of stupid word even was that like come on
