1. This left me a little verklempt the other day: Dad overhears gay son talking and saves him the trouble of coming out

2. And this video, featuring a kid who got the chance to get onto the ice with a few Blackhawks players through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, just gives me all the feelings. /o\ The kid looks so little in his big goalie gear, and ( Read more... )

1. That dad is beyond awesome.

2. I liked Tazer at the end, how he rested his hand on the little guy's head. It could have been his son.

3. Apollo/Johnny fic! This I am so going to read asap. Thanks for this.

4. April is coming soon and I am looking forward to poetry month!

YES. The first time I watched it (and several times after) I literally made an "EEEE" noise at that part. I read a fic about Tazer having a kid right around the time this video came out, and I think having that in my head added to the ovary explody-ness of it all.

Hope you like the Apolo/Johnny fic! It's not something I'd ever thought about reading, but I found myself drawn in pretty immediately.

April is coming soon and I am looking forward to poetry month!

You know, I've been thinking about this, and I am probably going to celebrate a month late and post for the first 30 days of May instead. I'm going to be out of town for nearly half of the month of April. I did pre-scheduled auto posts when I was on vacation for a few days last year, but it would be really tough to coordinate as many as I would need this year. :-/

I wil definitely let you know on the Apolo/Johnny fic.

May it is, then! Make it easy on yourself. And because it's May, we actually get one more poem than in April so even better (30 vs. 31).

Haha, well, I leave town again on May 30, so I'll probably do the usual number. (Plus, doing 31 would screw up my even male/female poet split. *g*)

I'd like to give that dad a Father of the Year award. He's one incredible human being.

Awwww, that video gave me all the feelings, too!

Isn't it the most amazing note? I can just imagine how his son felt reading it.

FEELINGS. *watches video for millionth time*

With the exception of Kaner/Tazer, I never have any clue who any of the Hockey RPS people are/what they look like, and usually can't be arsed to look up a primer (though I know there's another couple where they were sad for a while when they were on different teams and now they're in LA together and happy? And one has bad blond hair?) And I can't say that I've watched a second of Hockey in forever, but for some reason, keep enjoying the Hockey RPS stories I run across on pinboard, and am always glad to see more recs. So thanks!

Haha, the couple you're thinking of is Mike Richards and Jeff Carter. :) There's a primer for them for them over yonder, should you be interested.

Hope you enjoy the fic!

That letter choked me up as well. The last line is what gets me. So lovely.

It really is. ♥
