MATURE | M/M | CHAPTER 1 ✦ 3.8K

Frederik Andersen & Pyotr Kochetkov other characters: Sebastian Aho, Rod Brind'Amour, Seth Jarvis, Jesperi Kotkaniemi, pretty much the entire Canes roster gets a mention

tags: gritty medieval fantasy au, gritty like dark not gritty like orange, hockey players as mercenary knights, there's magic! but its rare and The Church™ doesn't like it, intrigue, rod brind'amour mad king trope?, what if the hockey gods are real, and jaccob slavin can talk to them

Freddie is the keeper of the Stormgate, Carolina's last line of defense. They've spent years at war, and he is still outrunning the shadow of his service in the North, hoping that the darkness of his deeds would not come for him here. But his oath has been called due, kneeling at his feet with irons binding his wrists. A mage that Carolina's banner lord bid him make into the weapon that would finally bring their southern enemies to heel. Pyotr.

FULL SUMMARY BELOW | READ ON AO3

“We’ve lost two major engagements to Barkov’s men in three years,” the lord said. “We are bleeding ground. The Black Banner has been humbled. And do you know why?”

Freddie said nothing. Roderic looked crazed, gesturing larger with every word.

“Sorcery,” Roderic spat. “Every time we meet them, they bring fire and lightning. Even the bravest men cannot fight magic with steel.”

it's been forever but guess who updated (!!)

hi hello i just finished reading *until it's time for me to go* and i had to reach out because it was *so* good and i was just kind of. staring at my phone afterward, wondering how it's been up for over a year now and this was the first time i'd (a) read it or (b) seen it. that fic is being criminally under-appreciated on that website but gd it i see you

you executed the pacing and exposition so well, and made the tension in the rba/jw14/sa20 affair triangle tangible and i was *hooked.* and it was so good to see another sa20 demon twink truther in the wild because i have been preaching from that bible for a minute and it gets lonely out here.

truly a first ballot hall of fame canes fic for me. i know you've been flames down recently but if you ever return to our carolina boys i'm so unbelievably sat

This is going to deadass make me cry and I mean it. Sorry I have like no words othwr than thank you I’m literally in tears

[pokechetkov]

(you’re too sweet omg)

Reposting my ask to the writing blog so I can continue to rant and rave about this:

“Until It’s Time for Me to Go” is primarily rookie Sebastian Aho/Justin Williams with flashes of Justin Williams/Rod Brind’Amour and mentioned Sebastian Aho/Rod Brind’Amour. It follows JW through the course of Sebastian’s first seasons as a Hurricane, where JW is trying his best to behave himself and Sebastian is making that very difficult. And then there’s the Rod dimension (!!).

The word count is daunting for a one-shot but it’s worth it!

omg I just found your freddie/jarvy fic during lunch break and omg I ate this fic instead of eating my lunch

The necklace!!! Wifey!Seth (had to double check to see if it was a omegaverse fic)

Curious about their past but can’t wait for the 🇩🇰wedding & their future daughter?!?? (If you choose to write more of them in this universe)

Sorry for the incoherent thoughts

helloooooo sorry i took forever to respond, i just got back on tumblr after a short break

i’m happy you liked it 🥲

the ~universe~ i have been working on is a lot more angst-heavy than just like heaven, which i edited to be fluffier and easier to read as a standalone while i worked on compiling some things for a full story that’s… not as kind to the main characters 🙈

i may give them that HEA depending on the outcome of this SCF. watch this space

without saying too much about that other work, which was (is?) going to be a fairly big project, portions of it deal pretty heavily with contract angst because of an uncertain offseason upcoming… but the recently departed made significant appearances given his role as freddie’s agent and it’s been hard to revisit this draft since, and i’m not sure when that will no longer be the case

but! i’m working on another freddie/jarvy getting-together fic in the interim that i think those who liked JLH will like as well‼️

[pokechetkov]

unfortunately for everyone waiting patiently for this i am so sorry my loves

i predicted freddie’s free agency with such shocking accuracy in my first draft of this fic that i think my ellipsus account might be made of whatever material they made the death note out of so i have to stop writing that for a bit before terrible things happen

[pokechetkov]

having: thoughts

[pokechetkov]

first chapter soon? please 🙏

I may give them that HEA depending on the outcome of this SCF. I have no fighting dog in the final this year so I’m solely rooting for the canes just for you 😭🤞

I’m wondering if the ghosts of Toronto (Auston Matthews) haunt your fic universe? The narrativessss

i am so behind on writing literally anything because of work but god. hopefully. and am34 is always haunting the narratives of frederik andersen

[pokechetkov]

seth & fred throughout your fic be like: https://www.tumblr.com/rask/802509834997104640/yall-want-seth-jarvis-to-join-a-broadcast-instead

the fate of the 2046 danish olympic women's hockey team depends on it

[pokechetkov]

how convenient of jarvis to go on LTIR for an upper body injury ending approximately 9 months after the olympics

frederik andersen YOU will be a stay at home father

[pokechetkov]

now i've got the entire arc of their relationship mapped out in my mind.

Please I’m so invested in Seth/Freddie that I would love to see more of them

so happy to add more folks to this army. i love them and i can’t wait to publish more of what i’m working on for you ‼️

i got another ask about just like heaven where i say more about how my first attempt at delivering on a bigger story arc for y’all was impacted by Recent Events so that’s why there hasn’t been more yet despite them being on my mind constantly

but… i’ve got another work in progress about them that i’m hoping to get done before the end of the final. first chapter soon? 👉👈

Seth and Freddie have fallen into a rhythm. Seth pushes, Freddie pulls, both tumbling forward together with no destination in mind. Then comes a lazy afternoon in the dip between the regular season and the postseason, and the suddenly the future has never seemed quite so near.

"You don't—" Freddie started, then stopped, then swallowed. "What you just—when you said that—" "The baby-trap thing?" Seth laughed, incredulous. "Freddie, I was kidding. I was trying to—I don't know, make the fact that I nearly came just from imagining your name on my jersey a little less embarrassing—" "I know." Freddie's hand slid lower, back to the waistband of Seth's trunks, hooking his fingers in properly this time. "I know you were joking."

tags: drinking, drunk texting, sloppy makeouts, frottage, dry humping, explicit sexual content, aftercare, marking, biting, fingers in mouth

When Nikita left that morning to return to Philadelphia, Fraser wasn't upset. He wasn't worried or fearful; he had something to look forward to, something to cling to until they saw each other again. That was plenty. OR What I have decided happened after Nikita and Fraser's first time playing against each other since March 22, 2025.

On the night that he scores his first NHL goal, Joel discovers that all it takes for his D-partner with benefits to get into his first NHL fight is a little jealousy.

FULL SUMMARY BELOW | READ ON AO3

On the night that he scores his first NHL goal, Joel discovers that all it takes for his D-partner with benefits to get into his first NHL fight is a little jealousy.

"If I do not want to fight, I do not fight. Tonight I want to fight. I need—" He stops, hesitates for a second. "I think maybe it feels good." "Did it?" Joel asks, eyes flicking to Sasha's hand, his red knuckles. He remembers that hand at his jaw twenty minutes earlier and his thoughts wander—he thinks about later, the threats Sasha made. He wonders what it would feel like to have Sasha's hand on his throat, gripping hard. "Feel good?" Sasha meets his gaze, his blue eyes dark and dangerous even under the harsh arena lights. "Very. It is…" His face screws up a little as he looks for a word in English he realizes he doesn't have. "Катарсический," he settles on, saying the Russian instead. "Is like a release."
