Thank you to DeaththeKat, JWS1993 and ClowniestLivEver for beta-reading this for me.

All mistakes are mine. I tinkered heavily.

This is my first AH, and it revolves around a sport I live and breathe: Roller Derby.

This fic is based around Men's/Mixed Roller derby.

For context: Roller Derby 101: Gameplay and Roller Derby 101: POINTS

 
Disclaimer: These characters aren't mine. I just enjoy playing with them.

Okay, life has been doing life things and getting in the way. 

I have another chapter. 

To all who have commented and liked this. Thank you. I am terrible at replying to comments. 

Thank you, ClowniestLivEver and DeathTheKat, for beta reading this. Any mistakes are mine and all mine. I like to tinker.

Okay, so it's been forever. I have no guarantee that I will remember to upload another chapter anytime soon, but I needed a change of pace and have been slowly getting back into FF after taking some time off to focus on my novel. 

 

A/N: The Royal Assassin is a high-quality roller skate wheel. They were discontinued thanks to Covid (Stupid supply and demand), but for the sake of this chapter, I'm bringing it back.

If it's not clear—that's definitely on me and my inability to write, hahaha—Buffy works at a Skate shop.

(Other not-so-important context tidbits: Gumballs are a toe stop, Solaris is a model of Rollerskate boot, and Bont is a brand.)
