Reading this on my phone at work was the only thing that got me through yesterday afternoon. SO MANY FEELS.

Gorgeous work!

I just have to say that I BLAME YOU ENTIRELY. I was perfectly happy with my life, watching hockey when it was on, rooting for my home team, and being mildly amused at people who enjoyed reading fic about such funny-looking guys who often have false teeth. AND THEN. You posted this fic, and I thought, "Hey, that sounds interesting. I really like her writing, and she's been talking for awhile about how much she enjoys hockey fandom. Why not check it out, what harm could it do?" Now, two months later, Hockey RPF fandom has completely taken over my fannish existence, I know way more about hockey than I did before, and I'm finding it hard to root for MY HOME TEAM in THE STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS because I and a bunch of other people think that (at least) two of the men on the opposing team are/have/should have lots and lots of sex. I'm now invested in them as people, or at least the fanon versions of them. So yes, I blame you. I mean, it's AWESOME. But still your fault. :D

(So yeah, thanks. :) )

\o/ YAY! I am so filled with pride, you can't even IMAGINE. (Um, which is your home team? I'm guessing the Wings, but it could be the Senators.)

I'm delighted you took a chance on this story, and even more delighted that it ate your life. No, wait, that came out wrong. But hockey fandom is wonderful, and I'm glad you're in it. YAY.

You don't know me, but I really wanted to tell you that this story is the best. I was thinking about starting to watch hockey, leaning towards no 'cause I live in an awkward timezone for watching live and I don't know too much (re: anything) about the sport.

And then I though, 'hey, let's read some fic and see if that makes my mind up'. It did, and now I am completely IN LOVE with silly hockey boys doing silly hockey boys things. And my top favourite thing about the hockey fandom in general is their massive love for soulbonding fic (and kidfic a close second), and oh man your is always and forever going to be special to me.

I really wanted to say something along the lines of 'I LOVED IT!!!!' or keysmash incoherently for a while, and definitely not be this longwinded or creepy.

[thefourthvine]

Neither long-winded NOR creepy! And trust me, I am an expert on being long-winded. (I would like to think I'm not an expert on being creepy. *crosses fingers*)

I'm so glad that you liked the story, and that it drew you into hockey (ummmm, partly because misery loves company, but also because HOCKEY IS GREAT and HOCKEY PLAYERS ARE ENTERTAINING). And I am 100% delighted with this totally awesome comment. Thank you!
