A painting of a fair-skinned woman in profile. She has copper hair and wears a coral pink dress. She's seated at a table with a round glass bowl with red liquid in it, a book open in front of her with a circumscribed circle and illegible text on it.

Ultimately an attempt to answer the question: what would it take for Veronica to learn a useful lesson from those college psychology classes?

    Summary

    JJ didn't think the others saw it. Hayden, maybe, but Jackie was the only WAGs's name Shane had committed to memory so Hayden never brought it up. JJ didn't have a wife or girlfriend. He had his hookups and the names of the best restaurants in each city they player in. If JJ had a dog, Shane would probably mix its name up with Drapeau's. The others didn't get that however pathetic or sad they might think Shane, Shane thought the same of them tenfold when they missed shots at practice or ate fast food on weekdays. Shane wasn't being prissy or funny when he said, don't embarass me—JJ still doesn't know exactly what it was, but he doesn't care to find out.

    Shane had poured everything into his team (possessively: it was his team) and he asked them to give it back that day, so they delivered. When Shane smiled at them afterwards, it felt like love.

    Character study on neurotic batshit hardass Captain Shane Hollander. The awe-inspiring and aloof Canadian Hockey Jesus Shane Hollander. Unwilling MLH sex icon Shane Hollander, the face on many mens' dart boards.

    or, JJ on the enigma of (his feelings for) Shane Hollander over the years.

    "She here 'cause she family." And Annie meant every word.

    Left behind by their men, Annie Greenwood and Mary Petitpas share some quiet conversations in the tumultuous storm they call life. Even when their meetings become fewer and their stories darker, they remain steadfast friends. They build themselves a strong bond, explore the way the other thinks so differently to them, and even have an argument or two. But they're still family and linked together by more than just the lovers who left them behind.
    Or
    An exploration of Annie and Mary's relationship in those 7 years between the SmokeStack Twins leaving Mississippi and returning.

    Summary

    After the rescue. When her mother makes a questionable choice that leaves Natalie without support, she's forced to move to Portland, OR to live with Travis and his mother, the last people she ever wanted to rely on. It quickly turns out that avoiding the past is equally hard in a suburban setting. Living together isn't only about claustrophobic spaces, nosy family members, or revisiting old feelings; it's about survival.

    Or, Natalie and Travis each get a clean slate in a new environment.
