put the biscuit in the basket
Dec. 26th, 2025 03:17 pmHockey season. I do watch actual hockey as one of the only sports I don't find unforgivably boring but this month has also been hockey media.
Half my tumblr dashboard became obsessed with the new gay hockey show Heated Rivalry so I was like 'okay, I will try it' and yeah, it gave me feelings. I am, however, like the 1% of fandom that cares way more about Scott and Kip than Shane and Ilya. I've watched episodes 3 and 5 multiple times. After episode 3 I also decided I was going to read the Scott/Kip book so:
Game Changers by Rachel Reid. This reads like what I imagine hockey RPF fic to be like. Book Kip is annoying to me but I love show Kip. Overall I think the show hugely elevated the source material.
I will now begin my annual Christmas to New Year's vegetating phase :)
