Falconers’ newest PR member, known as “Eric” to most of the corporate team and “Bitty” by the players, he’s easily the most well loved of the PR members by both the players and media coverage teams. His charm keeps interviews from getting out of hand and his pies are NHL famous for their bribery worth. 

Less known, that is only to the Falconers’ upper management and a handful of key players, he is the former teammate and husband of Falconers’ captain, Jack Zimmermann.

George is either recounting something one of the Falcs did or chirping Jack about his shoes. Jack & George, run buds.

prompt: insecure Bitty

Crack.

Jack’s head whipped round at the sound of Bitty’s stick hitting the ice.  He watched as the gloves were next, and Bitty’s hands–soft and clever–pushed into his hair.

Jack had known him, loved him, long enough to recognise the signs of stress.  It was almost automatic, the way his legs moved, the way he shifted across the ice until he was in front of his boyfriend whose cheeks were pink–and not from the cold.

“Talk to me,” Jack said, lifting Bitty’s chin with the tips of his fingers.

Bitty swallowed, then shook his head

“Bud…”

“I just,” Bitty said, and there was tension in his tone which, before this moment, had been there but was underlying, soft, subtle.  “I can’t do this.”

Jack blinked at him, his fingers moving from Bitty’s chin to his cheek.  His palm was warm from the glove, and Bitty leant into it.  “Can’t do what?”

“Any of it,” Bitty said.  “I was so…I was so happy when I heard the vote.  I couldn’t believe it, and I love those boys with my whole heart.  But Jack I’m not…I’m no one’s captain.  I’m not like you.”

“No, you’re not,” Jack said, and took Bitty by the shoulders gently.  “You’re not like me.  You’re different, and that’s…that’s good, Bits.  That’s better.  You’re the captain they need, and they saw that in you.”

“I’m never going to be a leading scorer,” Bitty said.

Jack’s eyes softened, and he curled one hand round the back of Bitty’s neck.  “You don’t need to be.  You need to know them, inside and out.  Their strong points, their weak ones, how to talk to them, to motivate them, to keep them together.  As a team.  And you and I both know you can do that.  There’s proof right here.”  He took Bitty’s hand, pressing it over his heart.  “You and me, what we have, is proof.”

Bitty swallowed thickly, daring to look up into Jack’s eyes, his hand pushing against the strong beat of Jack’s heart reflexively.  “You helped with that one, you know.”

Jack chuckled, leaning down to nose against Bitty’s temple, to lay soft kisses there, over and over, and over again.  “Yeah, bud.  I know.  But you played no small part, and they can see that.  They voted you their captain because you’ve earnt it.  And they need you.”  Jack urged Bitty to look at him again, keeping his gaze firm, his tone matching it.  “They believe in you, and so do I.  You’ve got this.”

Bitty let out a shaking breath, then nodded and squared his shoulders.  “Well, Mr Zimmermann, you haven’t lost your touch with those captain pep-talks.  It’s like old times”

Jack chuckled softly, then cupped Bitty’s cheek once more, drawing him in for a kiss.  “Except,” Jack said as they broke for air, “I get to kiss you after.  And I think I like that better.”

Bitty laughed, his smile finally, finally reaching his eyes.  “Yeah, honey.  I think I do too.”

headcanon that when Jack and Bitty retire, Bitty opens a pie stand like this to sell all the extra pies and jam and cookies that he can’t give away to his friends.

So, I’m going to keep asking @robochai for beautiful artwork every month, and then I’m going to keep coloring it every month. Because it’s a lot of fun! [x]

Ford! Looks like Bitty has won over yet another tadpole with his talents.

the omgcp fandom really has trouble fathoming the fact that jack spent the entirety of his time at samwell deeply in the closet. he wasn’t out to anyone. he wasnt out to shitty or any of his teammates, or bitty. jack zimmermann went through all 4 years of college surrounded by his favorite people in the world, completely aware of his own sexuality, and told absolutely none of them that he was queer. 

this isn’t a story about a private man who prefers to keep his private business to himself. this is a narrative about a terrified, world-renowned athlete who grew up in a homophobic environment and has been conditioned to tell as few people about his attraction to men as possible. it’s about a young, queer addict who’s burdened with an anxiety disorder, who was planning to go the rest of his life without telling another living soul that he liked men. and i firmly believe that if he hadn’t met and fallen in love with bitty, he would have gone through with that plan.

“bro it’s not gay. it’s hazing” is definitely something the smh boys say all the fuckin time

[zimmermannseric-blog]

Ok so I got inspried by a post from @onethousandroaches where they mentioned the smh team and a buzzfeed quiz so I spent a few hours making this. I’m definitely, probably going to make more in the future. It was tons of fun but I like when there’s a lot of options, which is why it took me so long lol.
