a "rose" by any other name

Summary:

When celebrating a win gets out of hand, alcohol is consumed, bets are made and lost, and a few deeply questionable decisions are made!

The next morning, #Hollandry and #HollanderHipTattoo are both trending.

Shane is not amused.

(Twitter socmed fic! Ignore the word count, the code reads as a LOT of words. It's like 40 tweets.)

Notes:

Hello hello! This fandom is big on socmed so I think most of you know the drill, but make sure creator workskins are enabled because that's how the magic happens! Or, chapter 3 is the full text of the story with no formatting and some tweaks to make it more screen reader friendly.

Usernames are either entirely made up, based on irl friends, or borrowed with permission from people in on discord. Profile photos are all off google images, I own none of them!

Post-getting together/Tampa All Stars, pre-outing. No trigger warnings.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

I don’t Sports but when a man keeps getting handed shots by his buddies and clearly does not want to die of alcohol poisoning, you help a cutie out and take a free shot or three¯\_(ツ)_/¯
