[gayjeris]

Reminder that Dex is a heckey player so he’s probably a buff baby who the whole school wants 2 wheel

[heeyjuuuude]

it amuses me when people write post-injury jack as very patient and good with his exercises. very few athletes follow their pt’s instruction—trust me on this; my dad’s a pt and all of my sisters are athletes, and the eldest after me is a pretty serious athlete, so i’ve heard about/seen it from both ends. usually, the more serious they are, the more likely they are to brush it off, think they know their body better than their doctors, and push too hard too soon. yes, jack would want to get better as soon as possible, and that would maybe slow him down for the first few days, but also this is jack “110%” zimmermann. he does not lay low after an injury.

The random number 7 prompt for Zimbits?

“Can we please stop running? I think I’m dying” from this prompt list (lol sorry this took so long!!! HAHAHA LIFE!!!)

Jack Zimmermann is a professional athlete.

Well, okay—he hasn’t technically played a game in the NHL yet, but he’s in the best shape of his life and he’s proud of it. He’s on a strict training regimen that requires multiple hours of work everyday, he can bench over 175 pounds, and can usually run six kilometers without really breaking a sweat.

Apparently, all of this means absolutely nothing in the sweltering heat of Madison, Georgia.

“Can we please stop running? I think I’m dying,” he pants, tugging on Bitty’s hand where it’s clasped in his.

Bitty turns to look at Jack with a wild look in his eyes, and he decidedly doesn’t stop running. “Just a little farther, honey,” he assures him, tugging him into a narrow path off the main road. He slows them to a jog once they’re finally in the shade and pulls Jack against the near wall of a building, leaning around him to check their surroundings.

Jack gasps for breath, leaning against the cool brick in the blessedly shaded alley, Bitty doing the same beside him. It’s so humid that it feels like he’s swimming in his own sweat, and the heat is oppressive in the afternoon sun, but the warmth of Bitty’s hand in his, clammy as it may be, is a welcome comfort. Jack turns his head to look at his boyfriend, who’s looking back at him with a smile in his eyes, huffing a laugh.

“Told ‘ya you wouldn’t want to run in this heat,” Bitty says, smirking up at him.

Jack glares at his boyfriend. “And yet.”

Bitty laughs, a lovely bright sound. He claps a hand over his mouth when echoes off the walls in the narrow alleyway. “I’m so sorry, sweetpea, it’s just—I just know I saw Mrs. Jennings come out of her house right as we were passin’ by and she was probably fixin’ to ambush me about setting me up with her daughter again, and don’t get me wrong, honey, she’s a lovely girl, obviously, but I couldn’t possibly explain to her the reason why I can’t date her…”

Jack can’t help but smile at Bitty’s rambling, and he turns toward him, pulling him closer. “Which is what, exactly?”

Bitty bites his lip, eyes darting behind Jack before a slow smile spreads across his face. “Well, because I’m with you, of course.”

Jack grins back at him, because there’s a phrase he’ll never get tired of hearing. “Are you, now?” he asks teasingly, hands moving down to rest on Bitty’s hips.

“Mhmm,” Bitty confirms. He’s apparently grown confident in the fact that they’re alone in this secluded alleyway, because he rises up on his tiptoes for a sweet, lingering kiss.

Jack loses his breath again, for an entirely different reason, but it works out because all Jack wants to do now, constantly and without fail, is kiss his boyfriend. Really, he’ll take running in this godforsaken hellhole and feeling like his lungs are on fire, just as long as Bitty’s the one pulling him through it.

[troey-jibiani]

Ok but what if for Halloween Dex wears a bad blond wig and glasses and Nursey wears a white snapback and salmon shorts

[violacakes]

OK but the best thing about that is that Ransom and Holster CANNOT figure out who they are in costume as, and it just gets funnier as the night goes on because they keep guessing wrong.

[lesbian-philosopher-deactivated]

Okay but then as they get more drunk they start hyperbolically acting out scenes from Ransom and Holsters life and they keep getting more and more touchy feely and ridiculous as the night goes on. 

Dex: Bro…Share a beer with me bro…

Nursey: Bro…I’m going to fucking cherish that beer with you bro..

Dex: I just..I need you to know that this is such a special fucking moment for me man…

Nursey: Bro…

Holster: Bro…Are they like….a Meme…or something?

Ransom: I don’t know man…Hey share a beer with me bro?

Holster: Wait.

Friendship Week Day 3: Kegster

Connor does not like parties. Especially after the LAX party that Bitty showed up at. He didn’t even want to be at that party, but Chad asked and he thought it was the one party where no one from the hockey team would be. But he was wrong and now things between him and Bitty have gone from cool to tense. The point is, Connor does not want to go to the Kegster on Friday. 

But Tango asked if he’d go. And then Ford asked if he’d go. And as much as he hates parties, he likes them. And maybe he can just hang out with them all night and not have to interact with people he doesn’t know or drink alcohol he doesn’t want to drink. 

The twin smiles Tango and Ford give him when he says he’ll go are probably worth a slightly uncomfortable night at the Haus. (At least if it’s at the Haus then Chad won’t be there and he can’t do something dumb like kiss a boy where other people can see). 

Two days later Connor is walking across campus with Tango on their way to pick up Ford and he thinks maybe this won’t be as bad as he’s expecting it to be. They pick up Ford and he tells her she looks nice and she grins at him.

Sometimes it feels like he can’t do anything quite right, but if he can make his friends happy maybe that’s good enough. 

They walk to the Haus and fall into their usual routine of Tango and Ford talking over each other while Connor listens with the occasional interjection. He thinks that if it were anyone else, the enthusiasm they show when he participates in conversation would feel condescending, but they’re both so genuine that it just feels nice. 

——

“What the fuck in the house!” Wicks yells when they walk in, and Tango and Ford both whoop.

“Yo,” Nursey says, “Bitty will be glad to hear you guys made it.”

He knows that Nursey’s just talking about him since Ford and Tango are at almost every Kegster, but he appreciates that he’s not making a big deal about it.

“Where’s Bitty at?” Tango asks.

Nursey tells them that he’s at some event with Jack and Connor feels a little bit like an asshole for being relieved that Bitty isn’t there. It’s just that sober Bitty has seemed to realize that he’s never going to want to talk about the party and he’s stopped pushing. He’s not sure drunk Bitty would show him the same courtesy. And if he’s being honest drunk Bitty is also comfortable with himself in a way that makes Connor all too aware of the ways in which he’ll never be comfortable with himself. Before he can get too far down that rabbit hole, Ford is there handing him a drink.

“You better drink all of this, I mixed it special for you,” she says with a wink.

He takes a sip. It’s just soda. He smirks.

“Yeah I can tell you put a lot of effort into this.”

She smacks his arm then drags him into the kitchen where Tango is insisting he pour them shots.

—-

To Connor’s surprise, he actually kind of has fun. Tango and Ford never leave him on his own and he’d feel bad about them babysitting him except when he asks if they’re having fun the both yell “yes” loud enough that he can tell they mean it.

They play beer pong and crush some of the girls from the volleyball team. He manages to hold a normal conversation with Chowder and Ollie and he can admit that Nursey and Louis put together a pretty solid playlist.

At the end of the night as he’s walking his very drunk friends home Tango asks if he had fun.

He says yes and he actually means it and they both scream and Ford hugs him and Connor can’t help but be really grateful that they’re his friends.

He is never going to like parties, but he can admit that good friends make them a lot better. 

For @birlcholtz‘s friendship week!

an omgcp redraw bc I’m a cruel person

(for @amurasakibara)

[myastoners]

[omgcpausandstuff]

Nursey and Dex have been together for a few months, and one thing that Dex has discovered is that sometimes Nursey likes to send him flirty/suggestive messages and really likes it when Dex responds in kind.

Thats fine! Dex still feels a little awkward doing it, since he’s not as confident or good with words.

What’s really awkard right now, is that Nursey think he’s home alone but he’s actually in public - at the grocery.

He panics a little, unsure what to do, and his eyes catch on a big jar of pickles and he ends up sending a flirty message back that involves pickles somehow.

This continues, with Dex sending more messages that involve food in bizarre ways until Nursey is like…

Nursey: Dex. Are you hungry? Did you forget to eat again? Go eat something. Dex: I’m actually at the grocery right now and couldn’t think of anything sexy Nursey: babe, that is cute as hell but you should have just said something Nursey: we’re almost out of those chips I like, could you pick up some more? Dex: way ahead of you *picture of the chips already in the basket*

And Nursey realizes some things: 1. Dex notices and remembers the things he likes 2. Dex hates those chips and never eats them 3. Dex must have specifically checked to see if they were out of them 4. Wow, they are like, In Love aren’t they?

i have too many wips so here’s a bullet nurseydex fic about this song!! listen to it and the lyrics 1. if you want a random song rec and 2. if you want to better understand the following…

• so dex finds this song on spotify but since he doesn’t have premium he can’t skip it

• he adds it to a playlist of songs he thinks would be easy to learn on his brother’s old guitar without listening to the words

• he eventually learns the words when he’s practicing the chords and jesus that’s gay as hell

• but practice is practice and it’s not like listening to a song about a dude makes him gay or anything. he’s not a freshman anymore; shitty and nursey taught him well

• it gets stuck in his head–not because he particularly likes it or anything–it’s just catchy, ok?

• it’s stuck in his head when he’s on a really bad date and wishing he could just fast forward to being comfortable with and understood by someone who feels comfortable with and understood by him

• it’s stuck in his head when nursey gives him a cold and they feel like shit and they watch animal planet and fall asleep on each other’s shoulders

• and it’s stuck in his head when he’s making nursey cinnamon rolls as a surprise and starts humming it 

• nursey notices it’s the same one dex has been practicing a lot and asks him about it, dex fibs and says he forgets bc that title says a lot that he isn’t ready to say yet

• but the next time they go to murder stop n’ shop nursey gives him aux just to play that new favorite song of yours, dexy, won’t you enlighten me on music this time?

• dex can’t lie his way out this time so they play it and listen in awkward silence and once it’s over and they pull into a spot, nursey asks in this high-pitch voice if anyone in particular comes to mind when you listen to that?

• dex doesn’t do words very well so he just kisses him instead

• somebody’s elbow bumps the horn and it startles them but then they’re laughing and holding each other and maybe this parking lot is the most beautiful place on earth and maybe this is the best song dex has ever stumbled on

[zimmermanns]

i was looking through my tag and found an old headcanons and. like i’m just saying but i’ll bet you ten thousand dollars that when jack l. zimmermann retires from the nhl he’s gonna take a look around at what he can do with the rest of his life–cause it’s just. always been hockey??? and he’s gonna think about what he likes to do and what he’s qualified for and it’s gonna hit him like it’s the most obvious thing and so he just. goes to grad school and gets a phd in history and eventually becomes a professor. imagine: salt and pepper haired jack zimmermann with glasses cause he’s getting Old giving surprisingly animated lectures on civil war history

all the ratemyprofessor reviews are basically “i took this class cause he’s a literal hockey legend and i just wanted an excuse to be in his presence but he’s actually a great teacher?? gives really good feedback on essays and sometimes brings the best pies i’ve ever had in my life to class”

[dontthinkaboutzimbits]

And one day Jack checks himself out on ratemyprofessor, and when he gets the hang of it he’s super proud of the little chilli peppers in all of his ratings.

And people comment about how all of his powerpoints are so pristince and well-structured, but they’re curious about all the dick jokes. (Ransom and Holster actually produce the powerpoints and Jack screens them, adding actual learning content, but some jokes make it through anyway.)
