Summary
Sometimes Kent sits on the floor by the windows of his apartment and feels inexplicably lonely in a city seeking glory and affection, lets his heart feel full of things lost and yet to be found, and hopes for better things to come.

Summary
Kent is stunned. He’s aware that he’s leaning over the boards like an idiot, but he feels like he just got rocked by a huge hit. This is Gabriel López. The Gabriel López. The one whose career Kent had followed in Juniors. The one who set records that not even he or Zimms could break.
“López,” Kent says heavily, because he also remembers being told that Gabriel stopped playing hockey after a horrific car accident. He can’t stop his eyes from roving over Gabriel, looking for any sign of injury, which is stupid because any kind of accident would’ve taken place over ten years ago, and he’s wearing his coaching outfit of a tracksuit with the Scorpions logo.
Or the one where Kent reunites with a familiar face, becomes the unofficial mascot of a peewee hockey team, and finds love, but maybe not in that order.

Summary
Jack thought his first year in the NHL would be 100% about hockey, but the reality is so much more complicated. (AU where the Goodbye for the Summer comics didn’t happen, because I had already written 80K words of this. But just because it’s canon doesn’t mean we can’t still enjoy long, angsty, get-together stories, amirite?)

Summary
Bitty doesn't know why he even posts the video, but he can't help but be grateful for it when it sparks a friendship with a charmingly awkward internet stranger. Between arguing with his parents about his future, his fear of checking making a resurgence, and life as a college sophomore at Samwell, having someone he can talk to with no filter is an outlet he desperately needs. But as him and his new friend grow closer, Bitty starts to suspect that there may be more to his anonymity than simple shyness.
Jack didn't go to Samwell AU.
Completely written, updates on weekends.

Summary
Eric Bittle (Soon to be captain of the Samwell Men's Hockey team, almost Senior) meets Jack Zimmermann (Actual Captain of the Falconers, Stanley Cup winner, Hockey God) in a crowded bar on a Sunday night.
The attraction is instantaneous.
But it's crazy, right? There's no such thing as love at first sight.
So Bitty and Jack agree to date for three months and see if, after they get to know each other for real, they still feel the same (though Bitty's pretty sure Jack is already planning the wedding...).
Like, this might actually all work out, eh?

Summary
Eric Bittle never became a hockey player at Samwell. Instead, the national-level senior men's figure skater tries to face school with a scholarship to the Sammies, Samwell's synchronized figure skating team. He has no access to an oven, has to deal with homework, programs, hostile teammates, and very few friends.
And then there is this guy he has to share morning ice time with.
Jack just has to survive when the freshman he skates with in the morning catches his eye.

An AU in which Bitty was a figure skater at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, and met Kent Parson during a... difficult time. The two became friends, and the rest, as they say, is history. Of a sort.

Summary
Everybody in Eric Bittle’s family has a soulmate. He’s heard stories about those unlucky people whose marks never come in, and he’s even heard a few stories about people who never connected with their soulmate despite being marked, but the Bittles and Phelpses have never suffered that fate. Until he came along. Eric Bittle doesn't have a soulmark, but that hasn't stopped him from longing for his soulmate.
Jack Zimmermann has never thought too much about soulmates, even when it was still a possibility for him. He’s not like Bitty, still holding out hope a mark will materialize, proving there’s someone out there just for him. He’s twenty-four. It’s not going to happen.
When Jack signs with the Falconers, pretending to be soulmates seems like an easy solution for both of them. After all, neither of them really wants to be alone.
Or, the one where two friends pretend to be soulmates until they realize they're no longer pretending.

Summary
Jack Zimmermann was drafted first by the Providence Falconers when he was eighteen years old. He is good at hockey. Very good. His team won the Cup his second year and now, in his third year, they are looking good. Jack should be on top of the world. And some days, he manages to convince himself he is.
He’s not, of course.
Enter the Ice Crew.
