Summary
But Brady had laughed like it was a joke, and then Brady’d said, no you’re not. C’mon, you’ve never been like that, and then Brady’d gotten upset and said but wouldn’t it be easier if—
And then Brady hadn’t talked to him for five months.—
After Matthew loses in the Stanley Cup Final, Brady takes him to a cabin for a weekend. They have a lot they’re not talking about.

Bookmarker's Notes
the prose in this fic is really, really gorgeous -- there's a really nice balance of slick and creative phrasing alongside extremely effective simplicity. the pacing and tone is beautiful. i keep a screenshot of the 'what's it like to have siblings?' paragraph on my phone to reread and send to friends every now and then! brady & matthew's relationship (as well as the wider tkachuk family) is very compelling and honest. i really enjoy how the situation is slowly revealed to the reader; it adds a lot to the impact. the actual substance of this story makes me sooooo emotional, the homophobia is portrayed in such a realistic way while also maintaining matthew's own sense of self and how he might realistically react. this is one of my favorite hrpf oneshots, i really couldn't recommend it enough! i've read it thrice since it was posted and i'm sure i'll revisit it again. amazing work!!!!!
