Summary: “Pens PR wants to pimp us out for charity,” Sidney says when he can finally focus on Geno’s blank look. Geno still looks sweetly confused, and Sidney doesn’t know if it’s the sex, the sleepiness, the English, or some combination of all three, but he doesn’t mind nearly as much as he should. “I really don’t want to be sold off to rich cougars or puck bunnies, Geno.”

“Cougars?” Geno asks, now looking alarmed.

Fastening One Heart to Every Falling Thing by thefourthvine
Fandom: Hockey RPF
Pairing: Sidney Crosby/Evgeni Malkin, Evgeni Malkin/Alexander Ovechkin

Summary: Geno can't. Sidney won't.
Additional tags: Alternate Universe - Soulbond, Trope Subversion/Inversion

I love this story a lot, it gave me ALL THE FEELINGS in the universe! Hyperbole to the MAX! It is told through the dual pov of Geno and Sid, a narrative style I enjoy. I love the way thefourthvine subverts established ideas and tropes (see the other amazing story The Work of Wings, which I also rec highly). The story interrogates these tropes from different angles, and the two perspectives create an interesting picture for the reader. Sidney: who feels too much, to his detriment. Geno: who can never be a part of a 'soulbond', but longs for a connection.

The world building is excellent and I would love to read a million words of different stories set in this universe. I liked the cast of interesting side characters (even though Russian names are a pain to pronounce), and I really liked the Geno/Ovechkin and thought it was interesting and integral to Geno's development and the story.

It is not always a happy story, there is a melancholy tone with pining and pain and the road is hard. The characters have to work for their happy ending. This story made me think hard about the tropes I love and why I love them. Did I want the story to follow my wish fulfillment ideas? Or carry down this interesting path, but with an uncertain foundation? The story built beautifully and ultimately I cannot think of a more satisfying resolution. A incredible piece of writing and a great reading journey.

... and yes this may mean that I have almost finished podficcing it (blanket permission to podfic is awesome).

Summary: Geno and Ovie move to America. Speaking English all the time is a little difficult; falling head over heels for Sidney Crosby is a lot harder. Especially since Geno can't seem to make himself talk to Sidney to save his life.

Summary: BAKERY AU. Mark is Mark, Eduardo owns a bakery/café near the Facebook offices. Mark does not have time to have a thing for him, but he totally, totally does. Sadly for Mark's continued enjoyment of a harassment-free existence, Dustin is still Dustin and is entirely devoted to his causes of a) getting Mark laid, b) acquiring all the gossip, and c) acquiring all the baked goods he can. Featuring novelty shaped cookies, frosting in places frosting should never be, and ~feelings~.
