you ever hear a song come on and you're like wow, this is just like the scene in the fanfic that I made up in my head that one time but never wrote because I'm lazy and I don't know how to read

#I hear Gypsy by Fleetwood Mac and suddenly I'm in my AU where Pat and Jonny played hockey together in the 80s #and one of Pat's sisters got a Mirage cassette stuck in the tapedeck of his car and he was forced to listen to it until it grew on him #and that was the soundtrack to the good old days #when they had to hide their relationship from literally everybody but at least they were together. #and 2 decades + half a dozen cars and a failed marriage later he's driving down the freeway #(and driving away from his problems) #when a caller on the radio requests the host to play his late wife's favourite song (and you better believe it's Gypsy by Fleetwood Mac) #so Pat exits at the next offramp because you don't know what you got til it's gone #(wow this is a great story. wish it existed outside of my imagination. anyway where was i) #(oh yes. in my feels) #text
