Summary
When Buffy the Vampire Slayer dies just a few days after her Watcher, Merrick Jamison-Smythe, a new Slayer is called. There's no one to tell the Watcher's Council that Buffy is alive again. They certainly won't be told by her parents, who don't believe in vampires and are distracted by their imploding marriage. The only person who knows is her boyfriend, Oliver Pike...
Will a Buffy abandoned by the Council that never really knew or appreciated her end up becoming the Slayer they want, or the Slayer they deserve?

A Guide to the NHL/MLH: Everything But the Hockey by facingthenorthwind (spacegandalf), SiladhielLithvirax
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Men's Hockey RPF

Summary
What the hell is a "free agent" and why is Ilya Rozanov one at the end of Heated Rivalry? Would Cliff be suspended for that hit on Shane? How many times a season do Montreal and Boston play each other? How is the order of draft picks determined? How do hockey trades work?
All this and more is answered in this guide to how the NHL (and thus maybe the MLH) works! This isn't about the rules of playing hockey, but instead the rules of the league itself. Even the boring bits can become great prompts for fic if you believe in yourself!
If you're writing Hockey RPF, this guide makes sure to point out where the NHL and the fictional book series/show differs, so it still works as a simplified guide for that too!

Summary
Yuna Hollander is really quite good at Super Smash Bros. David Hollander isn’t bad, but he’s not particularly amazing, either. He tries his best.
It’s only after they turn off the TV—after Yuna pulls Shane aside to talk about some sponsorship meeting before Shane and Ilya leave for the night—that Ilya finds out why Shane’s parents know how to play.

Summary
Kowalski believed, for a brief and surreal moment, that Ilya Rozanov was coming on to him in the men’s room of the hotel bar. This was unexpected, but Kowalski owes a significant portion of his professional success to his reaction time. In the restroom in question, Kowalski called on the skills he had honed on the ice and made a move in order to capitalize on a potentially fleeting opportunity.
It didn’t work out the way he hoped.
