Tell me that's not what influenced that part of the choreo...
This MV and song make me laugh. It's such a sweet thing at the start and then you get to the chorus and they're all doing Taemin's Guilty style choreo....

The thing that makes me a little sad about the sport is that there are few teams who can compete with USA and Canada. Which means that 90% of the time, you already know who is going to be in the gold medal game. There are occasionally a couple of upsets, but overall, it's always going to be them.
Canada vs Slovakia is just starting now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5Lb...
Oh I didn't realise that this was the first Gaku/Nico fic on AO3. Other people need to write them too please
USA making me sad now. I know they're amazing but I wanted Italy to do better.
USA, you can stop scoring now, yeah?
(if you find my account because of my para ice hockey posts, you probably don't want to follow me. I'm very much not into sports usually, unless it's of the Heated Rivalry type...)
Declan Farmer (USA) really is worth the hype though. He's considered one of the best players in the world, with good reason. He was always good, but he's improving year on year.
USA vs Italy has just started with an amazing goal by Italy less than a minute into the game!
I'm very much rooting for the Italian team this time, sorry American friends. But I have a soft spot for that team. Plus they're the underdog, at least on paper...
Thank you @thistidalwave.bsky.social and @syngekitsune.bsky.social for nudging me in this direction! I don't know if I'd ever have written this without the prompting!
New fic!!
Gaku/Nicholas, T, 2168 words, no archive warnings
My original thought was "Nico takes Gaku shopping, dresses him up in pretty clothes and kisses him". That's pretty much the summary, I guess.

Two good preliminary para ice hockey games today, airing live on the Channel 4 YT channel:
USA vs Italy in 4 hours time
www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlK_...
Canada vs Slovakia in 7 hours time
www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5Lb...
Both definitely worth tuning into, especially if you've never watched before.
I just feel so meh at the moment. I'm finding it hard to get excited about anything for more than a couple of minutes.
A quick google and I'm pretty sure they're completely made up "groups". And quite possibly some kind of gross AI thing.
Three postcard sized cards showing "k-pop stars", Ara from Purple Rogue, and Saya and Nari from Moonmuses....
Any idea at all who these are?
A packet called "k-pop stars" that apparently contains a lollipop and 3 photocards....
This is going to be so shit, isn't it? It cost me ยฃ1....
Pie!!
Or rather Pi.
Got it!
It wasn't a fandom reference. It was a "real world" reference. Like "247" or "711".
It's neither of those.
Got a new suitcase a couple of weeks ago.
With a built in lock.
Set the lock code to a 3 digit number that we wouldn't forget.
We've forgotten it...
For absolutely no reason at all, here is the 2023 Firework dance challenge featuring Nicholas (&Team) and Gaku (aoen)...
I totally understand how you feel. I've been like that for a couple of weeks now too. I've not done any of the things that bring me joy. Just work, doom scrolling, and sleeping...
This made me giggle this morning. Italian Paralympians in training...
For two hours, I ate everything I could find in the house (within reason for my diabetes).
Now I am struggling to stay awake.
Only another 40 mins and I can log off work...
Mine were all early this morning. Also should be illegal..
The quote on the article about a lot of athletes missing the opening ceremony because they're competing in the morning is also true - for both Olympics and Paralympics. When I was there, the numbers of athletes at the opening ceremony was much lower than the closing one.
The Paralympics and Olympics have different boards. It's not the IOC who make the decision about Paralympics, it's the IPC. They're two very separate organisations.
"I can't write at the moment", I cry into the abyss. "Nothing is working."
Three hours later and I have a new double drabble written and published, and 1400 words of a crossover that I absolutely blame on @syngekitsune.bsky.social and @thistidalwave.bsky.social...
What if Nico offers to take Gaku shopping? Dresses him up in pretty clothes and kisses him in the changing room...
Let me watch their TikToks and have a think...
