I'm only mildly embarrassed by all this

On ao3 @fourthlinefic

[crossguild]

why are jason’s only solutions for any problem either ‘molotov cocktail’ or ‘marriage’

[nbjanet]

Most people: fight or flight

Jason Mendoza: fight or fuck

[sairayesha]

He’s got the the face of a Greek god and the problem solving ability of one too

I Give it a Year (and a day)

I had a lot of fun writing this for @cakemakethme, thank you for giving me such awesome prompts! All the feedback I've received so far has just been super lovely, and is so so much appreciated 💜💜

I have moved my fic!

Because I’m starting to write in other fandoms, I’ve moved all my hockey fic to the pseud ‘fourthlinefic’. It’s still all there, I just want to keep my RPF stuff separate from general fandom.

[fourthlinefic]

@ anon is that prompt for the mulaney meme or the signs of affection meme?

[geeky-jez-deactivated20231025]

Signs of Affection: Romance Prompt Meme

Decided to write up my own prompt meme for Valentines Day, rather than hunt down one that suited my tastes. Fair game for other writers to use it.

Send me a NUMBER AND A PAIRING and I will write something to describe:

A Touch

A Gift

A Fantasy

A Massage

A Nap

A Whisper

A Moan

A Love Bite

The First Kiss

The Last Kiss

A Surprise Kiss

A Slow Kiss

A Drunk Kiss

A Reunion Kiss

A Goodnight Kiss

A Doomed Kiss

A Frightened Kiss

A Cute Kiss

A Kiss Below the Waist

A Confession

A Request

A Promise

Any of the Above (aka Author’s Choice)

I’m going to open this up now and work through any prompts I get between now and the 14th. If I get duplicates that feature the same pairing, I will either fill them with the same drabble (or write a second, if I’m feeling fancy).

And if you don’t send me a pairing, I’m just gonna pick one.

UPDATE: I AM CONSIDERING THIS PROMPT MEME CLOSED FOR THE TIME BEING. The response that I got to it was incredible - far more than I could have expected - and it will take me awhile to catch up. I look forward to opening it up again in the future. (For rebloggers, feel free to edit out this note.)

here she is in all her glory:

Got His Teeth Fixed (I’m Gonna Break Them)

(Nicke/Ovi, bodyguard AU, 38k, archive locked)

Nick looked like himself. Older, of course, but not so much so as Alex himself. Same flaxen hair, and long like he’d always worn it. Same green eyes, like light through a bottle. Same pointed nose. Same soft cheeks. And he looked surprised to see Alex there. Yeah. Surprised was the word. But he didn’t look angry. Thank god, he didn’t look angry.

Nick Bäckström is a billionaire CEO and heir to a corporate empire. Alex Ovechkin is his personal security detail. It’s been a while. They’re reconnecting.

So since this site seems to be tipping into a puritanical hellscape, I'm going to set up a Twitter to keep ppl updated on new work. It'll probably be a private account, bc there are actual real life hockey players on there, but I will probably accept most requests. I'll let you know when it's up, and you can always find me on AO3 @ XylophoneCat
