@Barrett if youāre paying people for being gay where is my money?
Or: It's Pride Month, and the gays are posting their Venmos/Cashapps/Zelles in the hopes of straight people pay up for their crimes. Troy Barrett also pays.
To all of the SMAU writers: y'all are absolutely crazy. 3k took me FOREVER. And these guys are doing 10k+. My god.
Anyway this is based on this post I made back in April.
One of the sweetest things is when you post a new work on AO3 and then one of your old works gets a comment because it means that somebody read the new thing and liked it so much that they went and checked what other stuff you wrote and they liked that enough to tell you about it and I just think that is so fucking precious!! thank you thank you thank you to the people who do that, keep doing it it's the best feeling as an author
By now I think my most dedicated fools know of my next project as a take a lil break from Luca Series to experiment with something else. For those of you who donāt know? Hereās a snippet. Note: Itās not fully edited, mostly because I donāt know which rookies say what. Or what their group chat name is going to be.
Plot: During Pride Month, there is the joke where queer people ask their straight friends to pay them āØreparationsāØ. Troy lurks Twitter for these requests and pays them.
~~~~
CENS CHAT WITH HARRIS
Wyatt: [twtscreenshots] @/Troy why are we sending people money?
Bood: Man WHAT is going on over there
Rookie: HAHAHA itās pride month
Wyatt: I know that! I donāt have THAT many concussions
Rookie 2: During pride month gay people ask straight people to send them money. As an apology for being straight or some shit
Dykstra: Theyāre making us pay reparations now??
Troy: Uhā¦
Ilya: @/Troy if youāre paying people for being gay where is my money? Is it because Iām bisexual?
Harris: Ilya letās maybe NOT accuse our teammates of biphobia in the team group chat?
Rookie 3: Wowwwwwww! Homophobia against the captain!
For a couple months now, Iāve had the idea to create a fictional version of Never Offside but with Cassie [Boodram] and Jackie [Pike], and sometimes Lisa [Hayes] because I think it would be funny.
The major question.
Should WAGs Podcast be in the same Universe as Luca Series? [propaganda/plot below]
Yes
No- keep Luca Series and WAG Podcast separate
Shelfieās button
Voting ended onMay 31
Propaganda:
Pro-crossover
Less fresh worldbuilding which will keep my brain from screwing up the lore
Aka I wouldnāt have to give the rookies DIFFERENT personalities than the ones I currently possess
Make Luca and Jamie go on the podcast
Anti-crossover
Make it as canon compliant as possible, just with the added podcast
Will this force me to have Cassie and Jackie interview Crowell?
Allows me to create new rookies for the WAGs to interview (iykyk) which could potentially be interestingā¦
Plot
Cassie (Boodram) and Lisa (Hayes) meet Jackie (Pike) at the Hollanov wedding and they get to the topic of their husbands/hockey
Cassie makes a joke about starting a podcast and Jackie agrees.
Thatās it. Thatās the plot.
Iāll do a handful of episodes modeled after the most popular episodes (the rookies, a couple of the other WAGS/players⦠someoneās MOM - Possibly Yuna? DEFINITELY Hollanov)
Itāll be a oneshot series rather than a multi-chapter fic
Luca Haas on Coming Out, Showing Up, and Finding Love
Read on AO3
āWe chatted on June 19th, just two days after the Ottawa Centaurs took home their first Stanley Cup in team history. Iām not quite sure how we were able to fit this interview in, but we did. Haas was adamant we conduct this after they finished the playoffs, no matter what that looked like, and I can finally understand why. He may be hungover, and I may be exhausted from editing this in, *checks notes*, two days, but in the spirit of gay audacity, weāre vibing and thriving this Pride Month."
- excerpt from āLuca Haas on Coming Out, Showing Up, and Finding Loveā by Jordan Avery
This is the Luca Haas boyfriends masterpost which I will try my best to keep updated! Basically, this was born out of a desire to find out how many boyfriends we have invented for him.
This is likely not complete, and always a work in progress, as I've mostly based it on the Luca Haas/Original Male Character tag on ao3 but I've noticed a few being tagged different, so if you find any boyfriends not included, slide into my dms or comment on the post with their name, link and description! If your OC is in this list and I've gotten something wrong, please also dm me with how you'd like your boyfriend to be described!
Now, I have not read all of these fics, and this is not a fic rec post. The boyfriends are listed in alphabetical order. This is also not a post or space to critique people's OC's or fics, just to celebrate the hivemind creativity of what a fandom can do with a minor character with what, ten spoken lines? I hope this post inspires everyone to give all these fics and boyfriends some love <3
The criteria for the boyfriends (and non binary partners) of Luca Haas to be included are as follows:
Not a named character from the Game Changers universe (i.e. Young, LaPointe, Cliff, Hollanov, or even Theo the Mascot Guy);
They must interact in the fic at least once OR be a central point of discussion/plot and not be a one off mention;
They must be the main pairing involving Luca (for example, boyfriends he breaks up with to be with hollanov are not included)
Endgame relationships only (not because I don't like slut era Luca, but I am defining boyfriend as a loving, long-term relationship. This also means this list excludes any abusive fuckers who don't deserve the title of boyfriend)
They must have a name. I know there are a few fics that are set up for Luca to have an OC boyfriend, but the OC has not been introduced yet; I will add them to the list when they are named!
Let the boyfriend fest commence! (Under the keep reading because this is about to get LONG. I've tried my best to keep the little blurbs spoiler free! Heed the warnings and tags on each fic as you read!)

Luca Haas, the Ottawa Centaurs Darling on Coming Out and Other Life Events
by Jordan Avery
All quotes taken from the video interview have been paraphrased or edited for clarity.
When I was approached vaguely with this interview a couple of weeks ago, I said, ācount me in.ā As a queer sports journalist, Iāve interviewed queer athletes across every sport. I was one of the first to talk to Scott Hunter, the first openly gay NHL player after he came out, so I was happy to take on the unnamed hockey player ready to talk to the world.Ā
Little did I know that the unnamed hockey player would be Luca Haas, Centaurās Darling, 2021 Rookie of the Year, and hockeyās overall new golden boy. Of course it would be a Centaur, seeing how they are statistically the queerest team in the NHL to date (three openly gay players, two of which are married⦠to each other.)Ā
The current date of this interview is June 19th, just two days after the Ottawa Centaurs took home their first Stanley Cup in team history. Iām not quite sure how we were able to fit this interview in, but we did. Haas was adamant we complete the interview after they finished the playoffs, no matter what that looked like. He may be hungover, and I may be exhausted from editing this in, *checks notes*, two days, but in the spirit of gay audacity, weāre vibing and thriving this Pride Month.
It was mid-May, the Centaurs had just won the second round of playoffs, and they were gearing up for the Conference Final.
The day after they beat Tampa Bay in a hard-earned 4-2 series, Pride Tape had sent Harris all of the media for the Campaign. The plan was that immediately following practice, they were going to sit the team in front of the screen normally meant for play reviews and show them all of the footage Pride Tape captured of Ilya, Shane, Troy, and eventually, Luca.
And Luca would tell his team, Hey, guys. By the way, Iām queer too!
They would cheer, and everyone would have their happily ever after.
A straightforward, foolproof plan.
Or: Luca and Jamie come out to the team!
Luca Fic 2: Electric Boogaloo is upon us! I know I said that I would wait until June to post, but when do I ever keep fic-related promises?
