ok HR ep6 basically made me want to a) go reread my own sports fic where they go on off-season vacation together and b) once again pick up the DECADE OLD (😭) unfinished wip where they get married, which got shelved in part bc writing their families was so awkward

Not even halfway through Heated Rivalry ep6 and without spoilers I am really enjoying its commitment to putting every "sports rpf guys spend time alone in the summer" trope from AO3 in a blender

I had three lovely Yuletide gifts! First, my main gift, a sweet Emily of New Moon story running with my desire for the main four to end up in a comfortable and happy polydirectional relationship archiveofourown.org/works/75936266

Heated Rivalry ep5 doing that thing so much romance/fanfic/etc does of "they're famous enough they can't come out and everyone online follows their every move, yet they can eat or drink in public and have intimate conversations without fear"

choosing to believe Heated Rivalry used Wolf Parade’s “I’ll Believe in Anything” for multiple episodes because someone on staff read my baseball rpf story with the same title archiveofourown.org/works/2763422

Watching Heated Rivalry ep4 and these scenes at Ilya's house are making my mind start trying to do an Anora crossover

With Hockey RPF the fanfic was for the romance and the sex, the things canon didn't provide. But in Heated Rivalry canon does provide. So logic dictates that the fanfic is there to make them actually play hockey.

good morning, I have noticed that some of the critical responses to the Crave show Heated Rivalry have been, let's say, incomplete

sex scenes are craft! goddammit!
Anatomy of a Sex Scene: Heated Rivalry Edition - Reading the End

my very particular jam and also wheelhouse 😈
my favorite thing about a dual POV enemies-to-lovers is when they each have baggage that the other person is perfectly suited to understand and have empathy for and maybe help them through it but they’re too proud to reveal it so they and the reader just SUFFER waiting for the reveal 🥰🥰🥰

yeah I have been trying to sell people on entry level Thai or Japanese BL this week because there is SO much of it
There is so much gay romance TV out there, she yells into the wind. It's just not in English, she screams.

Watching Heated Rivalry ep3 and dying at how many enormous phallic objects there are in this smoothie shop

finally watched the first couple eps of Heated Rivalry; I haven’t read the book so I don’t know what minor hockey errors are from there or the show but luckily the actors are charming enough to overcome my nitpicking

I know “likes the idea of” means nothing but holy shit this is exactly the show I wanted after Andor
ANDOR creator Tony Gilroy likes the idea of a Kleya and Vel ‘Nazi hunters’ spin-off series in which the duo hunt after former Imperials following the fall of the Empire with the assistance of Dedra Meero in a Hannibal Lector-esque role.

something I’ve been reading lately made me go reread something I wrote a few years ago and while lately I no longer enjoy my own stories anymore (after years of being my own biggest rereader!) every word of this one got its claws into me again and I felt like yeah. this is my one real story.

You have to have changed your main fandom platform at least four times AND you must have at least three fandom-related subjects that cause an overwhelming wave of exhaustion to hit you whenever people start arguing over them
what constitutes a fandom-elder and when do you hit that milestone? is it by age? or through years of service? or is it something indefinable and ungraspable?

also this morning I woke up with some bit of a pop song I couldn't remember the lyrics for so I hummed it into my phone and laughed when it turned out to be the escalating part of "Golden"

(which reminds me I have 30 minutes of the movie left, I went to bed at Rumi's low point)
