Summary
Eric Bittle is just out of college and is moving into a house inhabited by a bunch of total strangers. The permanent lodgers include an artist, a law student, and an ex-hockey player, but they're often joined by old friends as well. Eric starts his job at the local bakery and begins to adjust to being an adult, but he learns that sometimes being an adult means acting like a complete child. He also develops his first crush and learns why people call it that.

Bitty never went to Samwell AU

Summary
I place the fault for this squarely on the shoulders of 1electricpirate who said "Imagine Shitty writing terrible zimbits fic in a Facebook chat that he send to Jack in instalments and it's all just full of terrible euphemisms and synonyms and also bro speak"
Thanks to the fabulous DoubleNegative for the beta!

Summary
“You do that,” Jack says, but he’s not even looking at Eric again. His eyes are fixed back on his soup, like he’s waiting for it to spill all the secrets of the universe.
Maybe if it does, Eric thinks, Jack will stop being such a miserable bastard.
Of course Eric can’t please them all, and he should take that to heart. It’s something his momma taught him years ago. But Eric’s still a stubborn little shit, and he knows himself. Knows that rather than giving up on getting Jack to like him, he’s going to die trying.

Summary
“You have to understand, Jack’s stuff, it’s so specific to his perspective,” Lardo says. “I like his photos because it’s like looking at the world through his eyes. So I guess you could say his world is…”
“Bitty,” Shitty exhales. “His world is Bitty.”
Or: 4 times Shitty was oblivious about Jack’s sexuality, +2 times he wasn’t.

I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS, Eric types furiously into Twitter. THIS IS LIKE RENAMING LAKE WOEBEGONE “LAKE SCOTT WALKER.” // Or, the only person in the entirety of Canada who is upset about Jack Zimmermann’s first Stanley Cup is Eric Bittle, and by God is every single one of Eric’s 160,000 Twitter followers going to hear about it.

Summary
Bitty wants to pull Jack in by the collar of his shirt and kiss him right here, right now. Instead, he says, “I don’t get it. Why I’m supposed to hate you, I mean.”
Jack shrugs. “Teams like having a common enemy. It bonds them, I think,” he says. And then, so quietly Bitty almost doesn’t hear it, “For what it’s worth, I’m not doing a very good job hating you either.”
Or: After the overdose, Jack traded in his hockey stick for a lacrosse stick. This proves to be very inconvenient for Bitty's budding crush on him.

Summary
The night air at the rest stop is warm on his skin, there’s a phone in his pocket full of voicemails he still doesn’t know what to do with, Jack and all his best friends are beside him, and he hasn’t talked to his parents for a week now but he feels almost unstoppable, ignoring the tugging sensation that reminds him that he’s not.

Summary
Eric Bittle is Samwell United’s last deadline-day signing. He’s 5’6” (and a half), plays on the left wing, and has the pace of a thoroughbred racehorse. He bakes in his spare time, has a soft, vaguely southern drawl, and has only just recovered from a knee injury that prevented him from finishing the 2013/2014 season.
He's also the first openly gay professional player in the Premier League.
It’s kind of a big deal.

Summary
This whole thing feels so weird, like they're betraying some clause of the homosocial bro code that says it's only for fun, you can't actually be gay, like they're letting someone down. But on the other hand, being with each other is the most natural thing they've ever done. Like a chemical reaction, or two halves of something whole, or one of those hand puzzles where the two pieces of metal are all twisted around each other, or the logical and satisfying conclusion of a really good book.
