whiskey business, chapter 9: we'll make it up as we go along
:) happy friday! have an update.
rereading check,please! because im in a ngozi Renaissance the last time i read it was in 2021(??)
currently reading madison, it's so peak..
sub top jack is so dear to me
You know, I love all the characters from the Game Changers Universe, but for some reason, even if I think they are really cute, Skip is my least favorite of them all.
At least a little of that is the fact that they feel like they are the Most Written For the Straight Gaze couple by far, but there was something else I couldn't put my finger on.
I was thinking about it just now, and I realized that its because I already have one set of queer hockey boys who break the internet by kissing on the ice after one of them has just won the Stanley Cup, and that is my perennial favorite boys Jack Zimmermann and Eric "Bitty" Bittle. I just think there is a little more situational tension in the Check Please! verse because the tension is not about staying closeted killing their relationship, its Bitty's family, Jack's past with anxiety/meds/Parse/his father's legacy that makes it more cathartic when the kiss.
Like, I'm not complaining here, this is very much a 'wow two cakes!' type situation. I just really love the Check Please verse more for this specific storyline.
Also it makes it really hard to do a crossover, bc now you gotta remove one of them from being the first, and that kinda makes it not fun to do a crossover.
i’ve been re-reading check please just thinking about how a tv show would work.
a’s thoughts about a check, please! screen adaptation
since it starts when bitty is 18, the vibe has to be a cross between the innocence of heartstopper and the risqué-ness of heated rivalry
we obviously divide the seasons the way ngozi does the books, where we get the first kiss at the end of s1
but i need to see bitty and jack falling, i want andi mack levels of look backs (I've never seen that show)
but do we adapt to in the current year? or keep it in the 2010s? - i think the vibe of overcompensating is perfect where you’re not sure what decade it is but there’s a LOT of nostalgia
how serious do we want it to be, in terms of the realities of frat life with hockey boys
IT NEEDS TO BE FUNNY. and very campy. check, please! is so good because it is pure camp
bitty as a vlogger
And if I said every single song from the great divide is about Kent and Jack

So, I wrote this fic almost a year ago. Which means I've been writing this last chapter for almost a year.
It should be ready to post very, very soon. I'm sure you can guess exactly when I'm gonna post it.
Either way, read it as a refresher. Or read it as a first timer.
Anyway, here is a preview of the shenanigans that's about to take place in the last chapter.
Happy July 1st, I guess?
