It's not called gym-nice-tics for the wip ask game?
Rio! Ty for the ask
It’s not called gym-nice-tics is a willex stick it au. Which is basically disgraced former gymnast turned skateboarding hooligan!willie (jk, he just gets into shenanigans) who is arrested for vandalism and is sent to Molina Gymnastic Academy instead of juvie or army camp. Which would be a good thing except for willies sworn off gymnastics for life, the entire gymnastics world hates him, and MGA’s team contains one Alexander Mercer, Willie’s ex…something. The last time willie saw Alex, he was walking off the floor at Worlds costing Alex, and the rest of his team the Gold.

Lowkey haven’t written any of this in months but have a snippet
It was like the entire world slowed down until it was just him and the wind in his hair, the steady vibrations of the wheels gliding over concrete under his feet. Willie felt like he could finally breathe. Like the weight of the world had lifted off his shoulders the second he took off. Nothing could touch him, nothing could bring him down, not when he was hanging in this wondrously strange timeless free fall.
It was what he’d spent his entire life chasing.
Elation bubbled up in his stomach, chasing away all the nerves and he couldn’t help the bright smile that stretched across his face. This was it. The feeling that he loved so much. The one he thought he’d walked away from when he walked off the mat at Worlds.
The thought sent his concentration scattering and then Caleb’s voice was echoing through his mind. You can’t simply try, William. You must do. Trying is for children and failures and I don’t tolerate failures. Do it again.
