    Summary

    When the media asks Kent what he was feeling as Mrs. Durand drove him to the Colisée Financière Sun Life for his first day with the Rimouski Océanic, he feeds them a cocktail of emotions: excitement, nervousness, and determination all at once. He isn’t lying—he was feeling those things—but his feelings were pushed to the back of his mind in favor of the Smell. The closer he got to the rink, the more detail he could pick up: freshly mown grass, fir, birch, lilac, and upon stepping into the rink, Kent swears he can smell maple syrup.

    Summary

    Jack put a hand on his hip and Kent shook his head. “I need you to know that I can’t do that again,” Kent said. “If we’re doing this, we’re doing this.”

    “How?” Jack asked.

    Kent shook his head. “We can figure that out. However - however is best for both of us. But you - I can’t have you ghost me again. I can’t-”

    “No,” Jack said. “I don’t want to do that.”

    Kent’s breath hitched. “Zimms,” he said, with some warning there.

    “I know, Kenny,” Jack replied.

    ‘Yes, you are lovely, a bit old, but I would love you, and take care of you, and create glorious things with you, oh sweetheart, if only…’
    The guy was not talking to Jack. He was talking to the oven.
    He was also, apparently, completely drunk.

    Summary

    Jack Zimmermann was not the most self-perceptive human on the planet. But when it came to his feelings for Bittle, he desperately wanted to understand exactly how, when, and why he had gone from "resent" to "like" to "love." In fact, he'd very nearly ruined his life--a second time--because he'd failed to piece together how important Bittle was to him. And he needed to know how that had happened, so he could recognize other momentous decisions when they came flying at him.

    Or: In his rookie season, Jack tries to make space in his life for the NHL, Bittle, and romance all at the same time.

    Summary

    The silence stretches, syrupy and slow as Lisa considers, looking uncharacteristically hesitant. “Mr. Parson, Kent, when I was reviewing the right up from the officers and paramedics who found you, there were some… inconsistencies.”

    Kent doesn’t know how to answer that, fixing his gaze forward.

    “Apparently in these types of accidents-” she says the word delicately “-there’s swerving, a result of the drunk driver’s confusion. Once they realize they’re off the road, there’s some sort of over correction, skid, and then the impact is made.”

    Kent might not have full memories of the night, it might be a blur, but he knows what she’s getting at before she even finishes her conjecture, can still feel the cold clarity of it.

    Summary

    "This guy might be someone Jack would have later – but Kent would get there first, and Jack would never have that. Jack would have to settle for Kent’s seconds the way he’d so very clearly chosen to do with everything else."

     

    Kent never said that he made sensible decision. When he runs into Jack’s teammate on the stairs at the Hockey Frat's Epikegster, he isn’t exactly thinking of making good choices. Hooking up with the guy seems like an easy way of getting the last word with Jack - but that was without counting on Bitty himself and just how quickly Kent would forget what he set out to do.

    AKA: TFW you set out for a revenge hookup, but you catch feelings instead.

    Summary

    "It isn’t until he’s half an hour away from Samwell, truck rumbling beneath him, that he wonders what in the world he’s actually doing. He’s driving but there’s no destination in mind. There’s just a burning need to get away."

    A month into his senior year, Eric Bittle leaves Samwell behind for beautiful Las Vegas skies.

    Summary

    When Kent and Jack were racing toward the National Hockey SuperLeague, they made lies of the vampire-werewolf rivalry and crossed bonds with each other, sharing their emotions at will. But Jack’s fear of his wolf got the better of him, and Kent went to the draft alone in body and mind.

    Years later, Kent starts receiving Jack's emotions again. Jack's happy at college, and Kent's glad to feel it. But when glimpses aren’t enough, he goes to visit, and finds a cheery blonde fae has Jack wrapped sinisterly around his finger. Though he knows he may lose Jack forever over it, Kent challenges Eric Bittle, binding them together until one stands victorious, with Jack the prize.

    A vampire, a werewolf, and a fae walk into a lake house. There may be more than one bed, but there is also garlic, and iron, and fangs. And eventually, Kent starts to realize that he may be wrong about more than just Eric.

    Summary

    Jack and Bitty have been secretly dating for a few weeks when Epikegster happens.

    Kent looks at Eric again, and apparently he's done with the polite hinting.

    "Could we maybe get some fuckin' privacy?" He snaps, directing it half at Eric and half at Jack.

    Eric just raises an eyebrow and looks up at Jack. Jack looks back down at him.

    "He's fine," Jack says to Kent. "Whatever you've got to say, you can say it in front of him."
