So, Tequila_Mockingbird at A03 posted a new fic set in the Superstition Hockey universe from the perspective of fans tweeting and blogging up a storm (in both French and English) in reaction to a Major Event in the series. (If you haven't read the series and don't want to be spoiled, start at the beginning. I haven't linked to the title because it in itself is a spoiler.)

(1) Fandom meta is hilarious.

(2) Philadelphia has become one of my heart's cities, and I am inordinately entertained by mentions of their hockey mascot. (One of my favorite tweets of all time is this summary of the city's reaction to Gritty's debut, and then there was a wedding...)

(3) Within the fic, there's a blog post titled "the eternal continuity of ducks." And suddenly there's a comment thread on which positions various Wimseys would play.

Some days fandom is the best.
