Penalties are only the beginning

Two for one special today. The first fic presented, “Crank Call”, was written back on April 4th. The second one, “Bon Nuit”, was written on April 15th, and picks up immediately where “Crank Call” leaves off. I got such positive feedback from my beta-readers (among them, caitlin--thanks cait!) on the latter, I decided to share with the community. :)

Disclaimer: I do not know these people. I do not know anything about what they do in the privacy of their hotel rooms. Made up. Fiction.

Characters: Milan Michalek, Mark Smith (Smitty), Jonathan Cheechoo (Cheech) [yes, THAT Jonathan Cheechoo], Jim Fahey (Jimmy), Steve Bernier (Bernie), a mention of “Josh” (Josh Gorges)

Title: Crank Call
Author: Zdarovyeh
Rating: PG-13, for language and sexual innuendo
Written: April 4, 2006
Author’s Note: harleymae threw down a gauntlet: to write a fic that begins with the line "[player] has a boner so big it's going to take my eye out!" Heavily inspired by her story, "How Not to Get Laid", I have, with permission, blessing, and orders of "DO IT!", written a variation on it. :). In real life, Milan Michalek and Jonathan Cheechoo are (or were at one point this season) roommates on the road; Mark Smith and Jim Fahey are/were roommates on the road. Milan (Czech) and Bernie (Quebecois) are both in the process of trying to learn/improve their English, and an eyewitness to a Sharks practice reported that they talk to each other in French.

Title: Bon Nuit
Author: Zdarovyeh
Rating: NC-17
Written: April 15, 2006
Author’s Note: Dialogue between Steve Bernier and Milan Michalek is all in French. The rest of the dialogue is in English. This is slightly AU of ‘my world’, wherein I write Bernie and Milan (who I call ‘Bernalek’ or ESL!love) serially; this was written as an exercise to figure out what might get Bernie and Milan past flirting with each other, and...well, why don’t you read. :)
