I don't read fic about guys who live within a ten mile radius of me because I dislike the thought of, lile, eating pancakes or getting groceries in the same place as dudes I've read about. If I ever got past acquaintanceship anybody in the hockey world I'd probably peace out completely, because of how (figuratively) incestuous the hockey world is and using fic as a form of vicarious living wouldn't be necessary anymore.
