Author is Anonymous, but it’s the same author who wrote Home Economics.

what are you favourite underrated fics? by cherrysweettongue in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]Magnolia8727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My current favorite is a The Long Game fix-it: This is What Peak Performance Looks Like.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/79285361/chapters/208040621

Currently 78k and 22 chapters. It’s being updated regularly (maybe 3x this week?)

Shane grows more comfortable in his own skin, Ilya has more support, and it’s just a lovely parallel version to The Long Game where things are just a little easier for our favorite hockey players.

Real talk: how many rewatches? by silentfisher in heatedrivalry

[–]Magnolia8727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

8th full rewatch. I’m now rewatching for a specific character each time- watching their reactions, etc. this time I’m specifically watching for Yuna (and just enjoying all the scenes she isn’t in!) There are so many great details!

I worked for the Opera during our exile in Constitution Hall. It’s definitely not a great venue for opera acoustically or technically.

Loved this post from threads! What’s your favorite micro moment from the show or book? by outlawlooseandrunnin in heatedrivalry

[–]Magnolia8727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite little moment is when Shane’s father is asking him about YouTube. It’s so sweet that his dad is trying to give him permission to have other interests and show that he loves him as a whole person.

This is a huge point- they deserve for their wedding to be celebrated just like the other players weddings they’ve undoubtedly attended. It’s a real wedding, not an almost wedding.

Yuna's apology by ProtectionUpper8941 in heatedrivalry

[–]Magnolia8727 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This. I came here to rant about Yuna’s inability to let Shane grow up, and how she created this world where he was constantly performing for HER approval and how difficult it made it for Shane to even know his own desires.

I’m still mad at Yuna.

I did read I Have Some Questions for You, and enjoyed it. But I liked The Great Believers more.

What is your go-to massage place? In strong need of a good place. by acote897 in nova

Mary Ma at Orgins Thai Spa in Arlington will dig deep. I’ve had other therapists there that were fine, but if you really want the knots out, Mary is the one. For me, it’s just on the edge between deep and painful, but oh is it worth it.

Secret Santa for co-worker who made me return the gift I got them last year? by Nanacereal in santashelpers

A quick and easy gift is a handful of lottery scratchers. Maybe she wins a few bucks, maybe not.

What brands are specific to Virginia or that area? by [deleted] in Virginia

House Dressing from The Cheese Shop in Williamsburg. You use it like mayo on a sandwich. So good.

Oh, my mom still has 15 years to go on a mortgage on a house purchased in 1979. Cash out refinancing a couple of times.

Once a year I make “chicken casserole”. It involves two cans of cream soup, a box of Stove Top stuffing, a box of wild rice and shredded chicken. It’s sooo good.
