Six(ish) Sentence Sunday
Tumblr media
Thanks @blairwaldcrf and @ssmtskw for the tags! This is technically only five sentences, but there is also some wanton semicolon abuse, so I think it counts.
The thing about Alex is, he’s always ten steps ahead of himself. When faced with a problem, more often than not the solution will come to him fully formed and he has to pick up the thread and walk it backwards through the labyrinthine pathways of his brain’s logic until all the twists and turns fit together; until he understands the steps to take to get himself from point A to point B. He’s always been this way, to the confusion of most people around him and the dismay of more than one high school math teacher begging him to show his working. The point is, he knows that what he’s looking at is how they get June home safely. He just needs to fit all the puzzle pieces together so he understands how.
Forever feeling feral for whatever y'all are up to, so tags below the cut and, as always, anyone who wants to play! (If you take the open tag please tag me so I can see!!)

I’m fascinated with the op hockey au and ur art that goes with it and was wondering what would the marines be… like would they be refs or rules officials or judges? Like hardly anyone likes the marines and nobody likes rules officials/judges.
asking cause they’re a couple good marines (Koby, Rosinante and Belle Mere)
i mentioned this a little bit in this post but it boils down to them just being generally scattered around sports and sports-adjacent jobs.
i thought mb akainu would be a ref that screws over/directly causes ace injury during a whitebeards vs pirates game; garp works in media (not sports) but doesn't really like the notion that all his kids and grandkids are in pro sports lol; and koby & helmeppo are a rookie espn sports journalism duo (writer + cameraman) that interned at garp's media company for a while before changing to espn (garp was exasperated about it haha). but ye, the marines would be scattered as judges and rules officials and people on the olympics committee, etc etc.
i said nami would be a marketer or mb a sportscaster, so i think it'd be cute if belle-mère did something similar in her day, annndddd idk about cora. i made croc mihawk's manager but i have no idea what doffy would do and how cora would play into all that. would love to hear if anyone's got any ideas tho!

in honour of it being nanowrimo, and my hyperfixation returning with a VENGEANCE, i'm back on my usual bullshit of accountability word trackers.
(as always, block '#hex's writing trackers' if these annoy you!)
because this is always fun, a length estimate that will likely be very wrong: i want to guess that this fic will be around 40k, because that's usual for me. i'm also doing this for nano, so aiming to write 50k words, ~10k of which will likely end up in a 'codas and addendums' fic because they don't actually fit here but the scenes want to be written. let's see how that goes!
nov 7th: 6,679 words (still on chapter 1) (with the caveat that these chapters will likely be sliced and diced by my betas because no one wants an 8k chapter, but this is where we're at today)
nov 8th: 11,504 words (chapter 1 complete, onto chapter 2)

ok Batman Hockey AU (no capes or superpowers of any kind)
first the team
Gotham Knights (probably)
I want them to have like Pittsburgh Penguins financial problems like they nearly get moved because of it but Bruce turns his owed salary into equity post career and helps keep the team in the city
Philadelphia Flyers style team history though like they won their first cups through physical play not being highly skilled
currently have a monochrome uniform now but everyone likes their more colorful uniforms from the 90s
Bruce Wayne
nickname: Wayner
position: left winger
play style: power forward
drafted: 5th overall
50 goal scorer in the dead puck era
one of the last guys to be high scoring and have 100+ penalty minutes
retires due to back injuries
wins one cup in the 90s
and like I said before he agrees to get partial ownership of the team to keep it in the city post retirement
Dick Grayson
nicknames: Tracy, Mr. President
position: center
play style: playmaker
drafted: 1st overall
first sign of hope as the team has been bottom of the league post Bruce's retirement
I did consider making him a goalie because of flexibility but felt him being captain was more important so center it is
one of the youngest captains in the league as he's named at the start of his sophomore season as he entered the NHL at 18
only one to go CHL as he's not American so no US National Team Development Program
cheats at face offs because if you're not cheating you're not trying
can use heel to heel for puck protection and can get off the ice on his own if he loses a blade on his skate
no one thinks he's fast until he's coming after them on the backcheck
favorite thing is stealing the puck, second favorite thing is breaking ankles
doesn't fight but he can WWE slam guys to the ice
everyone thought he was a bust for the first two years because he had no one to pass to
third year he decides to start shooting and begins to rack up more points
chats with everyone teammates, opponents, refs
always stops to sign stuff for kids
Jason Todd
nicknames: Toddy, Hot Toddy
position: right defense
play style: offensive defenseman
drafted: 62nd
dropped in the draft because he was short
got into a car accident that destroyed his knee after the draft so everyone thought his career was over
rehabbed his knee to the extreme and came back a season later and suddenly 6'0"
went NCAA before NHL to get back into it and scored a ton
cannot play defense
thinks punching guys in the face is gap control
has totally had pucks go off his ass and into his team's goal
will jump into the rush
silent wrist shot for power play goals
never talks to Dick when he gets mic'ed up
Tim Drake
nickname: Goose
position: right winger
play style: goal scorer
drafted: 15th
also dropped in the draft because he's short
USNTDP to NCAA
actually not that fast
always loses defensive coverage in the offensive zone
deceptive shot, can change the angle on goalies
always squeezes out from getting hit
active stick on defense, good at poking the puck away
lots of high sticking penalties in the early years
did get checked into his own bench one time and no one will let him forget it
Damian Wayne
nickname: also Wayner
position: center
play style: goal scorer
not drafted yet still in USNTDP
Talia refuses to get into hockey even after being with Bruce but when Damian was three she asked Bruce if skating would wear him out and he said yes so she let Damian go skate
didn't learn to how to stop until he was six because going fast was more important so either fell down or slammed into the boards to stop
vicious in family games of floor hockey
definitely practices trick shots
gets both power skating and figure skating coaching
not even in the NHL and already annoyed with media as he's predicted to go high in the draft
he'll learn to pass and play defense eventually

Dorcas narrows her eyes at her. “I’m actually running through drills, you’re just standing there.”
Marlene shrugs. “Wanna race? I’ve got nothing better to do.”
“Clearly.”

I am not a football girlie so I don’t know how long messi going to inter miami has been brewing, but it’s so funny to think about leon’s presence there being completely overshadowed by messi like you can turn the world upside down but you can’t escape fate (playing second fiddle)!!! but not to matthew! like maybe when they meet all the pr people are shoving matthew and messi together like FLORIDA SPORTS! GIVE US OUR SOCIAL MEDIA ENGAGEMENT! and then matthew goes on to only post him shaking hands with leon and leon is like What Does It All Mean
i am also not a football girlie so i also have no idea how long it's been brewing, but i have learned in the past few hours that it was brewing long enough for people to, like, preemptively grab inter miami tickets before the prices inevitably shot up. and good for them!
but anyway: i am dying at the second-fiddle fate of it all. in real life he has connor, in this footballer au he has lionel fucking messi. somehow i can't see him becoming besties with messi the same way he's besties with connor 😂😂😂
the thing is, matthew is such a media-savvy good boy that he would give the correct sound bites about how cool it was to meet messi and post his little insta post about it, but then he would also follow the inter miami account and share the picture of him shaking hands with leon and add as a little caption "this was right before @drat_29 chirped me for my skating ability" but not actually follow leon's personal account (yet) (he'll follow back when leon follows him, which will only be a few days later, because leon is too curious for his own good, at which point matthew will start dutifully liking posts but hold off on starting to leave flirty comments until they actually meet in person again)

me, earlier this week: i'm just gonna write a short little one shot, kind of a prequel thing, but mostly an excuse to write some more smut. short, sweet, nothing major!
me, 5k in with no end in sight, sweating buckets: there may have been a slight miscalculation here!!!
