....and somebody already wrote emo Taylor Hall fic about it, lol. Poor fanon!Taylor Hall, I hope one day he breaks out of the sad unrequited bff trope.

I don't mind it too much because it is a Pure and Noble trope that speaks to me on a deep, personal level when I'm in the mood for it and it can be a little hard to find. I find it interesting when pairings carve out niches for themselves in a bigger fandom like that.

Hey, upside of the trade: I can finally tell Hall and Eberle apart, both facially and as characters. Now if I could just figure out who Nugent-Hopkins is beyond "some dude."

RNH is the one with really good eyebrows.

Jordan is the one who has gotten earth-shatteringly more attractive with facial hair.

Taylor is the one with big teeth.

RNH stands out to me because he has a pretty angular/delicate looking face. He's probably the nicest to look at out of the three of them, imo. (I haven't seen beard upgraded Eberle tho.)

ayrt
I don't mind it too much either, I just wish there was more fic where he moves on in the end/manages to be happy with somebody else. I can get into the angst when I'm in a certain mood, but I don't want him to just be sad and alone forever!! Maybe the trade will produce some of that.

There are probably a few other Henrique fics in the mold of that other one percolating right now.

Re: Gossip and off-ice lives

[(Anonymous)]

I hope so just because everything being posted in the tag is so ridiculously bad lately. Adam Henrique fic will at least be new and (probably) original.

I thought the frat au story was pretty decent, even though it didn't use a whole lot of hockey. Some good definitely-not-porn fics would be nice, though.

My first thought was "wonder if he's going to get traded at his wedding?"

Re: Gossip and off-ice lives

[(Anonymous)]

That's more the Penguins signature move (or trading players who are attending a teammate's wedding)

Re: Gossip and off-ice lives

Traded to the Pens. The Metro division implodes on itself from the drama of it all.

Does he play left wing at all? Because I would be fine with that if so. They can have Kunitz.
