my favorite thing about navigating fanfiction is finding a really good one and being all “oh boy this was good, I hope they have more!” and literally every other story they’ve ever written was for like Miami Vice

Fans speculating about G's personal life drive me crazy. How can Anna be in Moscow when he's not? How can they be separate for six weeks??? What kind of relationship is that? lol She said she started working again and her projects are in Moscow. And Geno lets her go. I mean, god, so much drama. And I hear it from a woman fan who is fighting fiercely for woman rights lol And occasionally saying shit about WAGS. People lol

Truly. I suspect it has a lot to do with jealousy and internalized misogyny. As far as I can tell, Anna’s relationship with Geno is playful and loving and mutually supportive and respectful, she’s always giving interviews about how wonderful she thinks he is, and he seems to understand that having a career is important to her and is proud of her endeavors. Nobody is obligated to like or care about her, but the speculation and negativity is toxic.

And the way people try to use Nikita as leverage in this, my god! Seems a little suspect that Geno is given no agency here and the onus is entirely on Anna to make herself and Nikita available to Geno at all times, I guess because obviously the woman is by default the primary caretaker? Geno chose a career that frequently takes him away from his home and his family. If he really wants to be with his kid 24/7, he could always quit playing hockey to be home more. How’s that for a hot take.

Frankly, WAGs can’t win. If they don’t work and instead spend all their time at home waiting for their men, as people seem to think Anna should, they’re gold-diggers. If they pursue their own careers and interests, their relationships are clearly on the rocks and/or fake. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It warms my heart to see Sidney hanging out with G and his Russian gang. And Flower. Wow. What a time to be alive.

Apparently Sid said he’s going to stay out West for the bye week because of the ASG, so basically I took that as confirmation that he’s staying with Flower and making silver dollar pancakes for the girls every morning.

Sid, Geno, and Flower hung out last night in Vegas and I have proof:

Here we have Geno out clubbing with Tiesto [x]

Sid with one of Geno’s buddies from Russia in a suspiciously club-like atmosphere (a bunch of them came along on the road trip) [x]

Flower with the the entirety of Malkin Team including the guy from above (in the white shirt) [x]

For @youngfortrees, just a proud dad and his proud son, who came through in the clutch with a huge goal and almost-but-not-quite didn’t fall down in the process
