Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Check Please! (Webcomic) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Eric "Bitty" Bittle/Jack Zimmermann, Kent "Parse" Parson/Jack Zimmermann, Kent "Parse" Parson & Jack Zimmermann Additional Tags: Las Vegas Wedding, but not like you'd think, Apologies, Second Chances, Alcohol Abuse/Alcoholism, Past Drug Use Summary:

A wedding in Vegas stirs up a lot of things Jack has been steadfastly trying to ignore. Things Kent can't help getting hit by. It's a funny kind of crossfire, shared trauma and first love.

you spin my head right round (9.2k e)

It started — where else? — on Twitter. First, the Aces official account re-posted a fan video of that new theater in Vegas — the one with the video screens that everyone was either pissed off about, amused by, or both — which showed a single white spade tracking slowly across it's surface with the date of the Aces first playoff game below. In retaliation, the Schooners had taken the video and added a quickly photo shopped boat crashing into it, turning the whole thing into a meme overnight. The comparatively subdued logo swapped out for children's drawings, images of the Aces' horrifying bug-eyed mascot, and of course, player photos. Then, someone in the Aces organization talked to someone at the Sphere and a contest was born: Your Idea Here for the rest of their playoff run. All of which lead to here and now; Jack standing at a window, freshly flown in for the first game of the 2023 Stanley Cup Finals, looking at Kent Parson's smirking face twenty feet high and shining straight into his hotel room.

my @pimms-fest-2025 fic! featuring: a title from that flo rida + kesha song, hockeysexual jackzimmermann, an ill-advised semi-public hookup, and breaking up and getting back together without really dating.

you know, all the hits!

for better, for worse [check please. kent/jack. ~4.3k.]

“Dare,” Kent had joked — mostly, sorta, not really at all — and Jack had blinked in confusion and then stared at him with wide eyes and a slack mouth for long enough to make Kent nervous before wrapping his fingers carefully around Kent’s wrist and tugging him inside. [Or: Kent and Jack get hitched. Which would be fine if Jack wasn't already engaged to somebody else. Kent's life is a running joke.]

@ AO3

a/n: for the @pimms-fest-2025 "what happens in vegas..." event. thanks to the mods for organising this and to the pimms fandom for coming in clutch ♥︎

A Chip on One's Shoulder

7.9k Words, Mature. Kent Parson/Jack Zimmermann

Wrote a fic for @pimms-fest-2025!!! <3

Check it out here!

Summary:

Kent starts walking towards him, quickly slipping a hand in Jack’s coat. Jack is electrified by the touch even beneath layers of clothing. “Just a little something to remember our bet by.” Kent then looks up at Jack with a smug smile, and Jack… he fights a powerful urge to get close… and before he allows himself to daydream, Kent already starts walking in the other direction. He reaches down in his pocket and fishes out a casino chip.

the physics of falling (again)

The Providence Falcons play at the Las Vegas Aces. An unfortunate hit leaves Jack tunnel-bound and Kent reeling
