au where bitty is french and jack is jack and it's still the enemies to lovers pipeline only stronger

@weneedtotalkaboutfic 😘

alternatively:

bitty: wesh

jack: tu veux-tu arrêter

bitty, full of anxiety about telling his parents he's dating: 1. a man 2. worse, a quebecois man

jack, full of dread about telling his parents he's dating a french man because bad bob will LITERALLY never stop chirping him

jack: bonj—

suzanne: how nice to meet you I have to say I love your accent it’s so cute! how exotic! quebecois people are so nice aren’t they, richard? have you ever seen a bear? ☺️

This just in: Holster is canonically Chronically Online

Since Hollywood is about to shut down, I will cease my fandom-envigorating* social media campaigns to get Check, Please! a TV show. #wgastrike #sagaftrastrike #solidarity

AU suggestion

Jack is the hot but surly bartender at Bitty’s favorite bar. He seems to be immune to Bitty’s flirting, but really just has an excellent poker face and doesn’t want to seem unprofessional

Is this shitty bc Bitty’s hitting on him at work?

it’s shitty because I want to read it but I don’t feel like writing it

It’s shitty bc it’s adding to my WIP pile

in the best way (AO3)

________________________

Jack has been called many things in his life. A hockey prodigy who stumbled at the last step. A history major who blossomed unscathed. A guy who many people, from all backgrounds, can talk to if they’re having a hard time (he’s pretty proud of that. Lardo told him this after a particularly difficult shift when her scholarships were declined. He’d offered her money and she turned him down, saying, “That’s not what I needed from you tonight,” and then told him). 

He has never been accused of being oblivious. At least not recently. He can tell the blond guy on the other side of the bar is hitting on him; it’s something in the curve of his mouth when he says “Vodka lemonade,” in the path his eyes take down Jack’s — admittedly tight — shirt while he runs the guy’s card. 

It’s even clearer when the guy says, with a hand on his chin and looking right into Jack’s eyes, “Don’t suppose I could get two tall sips of water tonight. Do you think I could?”

pov: you’re a student at samwell university cramming for finals and marking “interested” on a facebook event

Perks that come with re-reading Check Please online

You notice how in this panel from "Hi Honey! - Part II":

We're viewing Bitty from his closet, where he metaphorically feels he's been shoved into-

And you also notice how in this panel from the very next chapter, "Me & Jack":

Bitty's hands are shaking ever so slightly as he awaits his friends' reactions

Holster goes into Samwell thinking he’s gonna hate Jack because Jack’s soooo talented at hockey and soooo well connected and soooo rich but he actually hates Jack because Holster mentioned SNL and Jack was like “Oh. Is that … a class”

addition: Alicia Zimmermann has hosted SNL.

Jack: Ten years ago I convinced an acquaintance of mine that I had no idea what SNL was. Today I’m hosting.

Holster, from the audience: And you’re still an ASSHOLE

Jack: Sometimes I can still hear his voice.

genuinely curious to know where y'all at with fan creations atm. (*) fic/art encapsulates any form of creation

bonus points if you reblog and tag what motivates you and/or might motivate you to create again (e.g.: events, seeing more creations by other people, joining a community)

i am. so sorry if i have ever used the phrase “i have an au where—” and led you to believe that there is an actual fic out there for you to read rather than, at best, a post where i explain the concept, and at worst it is simply something that lives in my brain

if it helps i also wish there was a fic

adult life sucks when am i supposed to have time to think about jack l. zimmermann??????? when??????
