    Summary

    Shane and Ilya are thrilled to be on the same team this year but can't resist a little on-ice fighting. The team is very concerned.

    ---

    “Great,” Troy muttered. “They’re going to kill each other.”

    Across the boards from him, Harris squeaked, “Should we, like, do something? Call Coach? Call – “

    “A therapist?” Troy interjected.

    “I’m serious!” exclaimed Harris.

    “So am I,” said Troy. “Those two have been on opposing teams for their entire professional careers. I don’t think they have any idea how to turn off their competitive bickering. This is going to be an interesting season.”

    Summary

    If things don’t click between Ilya and Shane, if they can’t properly function and communicate in a professional setting, they won’t win anything. The rest of the team will suffer. And that’ll be Shane’s fault. Ilya led this team to the second round last year when no one even expected them to make the playoffs. Everyone already knows that this is his team. Shane is the one that needs to fit.

    So Shane, simply, will be the best. He will make sure no one can question his place in this league. He will make himself fit.

     

    or, Shane's first year as a Centaur, everyone (Shane) expects great hockey and a perfect marriage. It's not.

    Summary

    “Ilya,” he whispers. “I want this. I want to know when you’re hurting and when things are hard, because I want you. I want you when you’re sad, and lonely, and messy-“

    “-you hate mess,” Ilya teases, drawing a hard-earned smile out of Shane.

    “But I love you.

    Summary

    “You’re too far,” Shane murmurs, voice still gravel-rough. It’s barely an inch of space, but it feels unbearable.

    Ilya’s answering laugh ghosts against Shane’s cheek. “I’m right here.”

    “Not close enough.” Shane’s fingers curl at the nape of his neck, tugging him down until their foreheads meet.

    OR: Shane and Ilya, and domesticity.

    Summary

    The Voyageurs ask Shane to join FanMail in order to foster a better connection with fans. Internet sleuths start to notice some interesting details in the background of Shane’s videos, and then the internet does...what the internet does.

    Or Shane and Ilya are granted an opportunity to come out on their own terms. Sort of. And in they do it in a very Ilya way. (Surprisingly, it is Shane’s idea)

    Summary

    "They make it to their bedroom and Shane just wants to drop already, but also this itch in his throat that is identical when he feels like he will sob also climbs its way up to be known and it seems Ilya already knew when he blinks and everything gets blurry and doubled."

    Or; Ilya takes care of Shane after a bad game.

    Summary

    "Shane Hollander obviously had lost his mind. Ilya and his linemates had just skated off the Ice to make room for Shane’s line. Really – Ilya had barely time to sit down and get some water into himself when suddenly gloves were tossed and Shane punched one of the newer Boston players square in the face. A player quite a bit bulkier than Shane, one might add."

    Shane gets into a hockey fight and Ilya is not amused about it. That's it, that's the plot.

    Summary

    “My - it’s my,” Shane pants, his hand flapping like Ilya’s sometimes does when he’s searching for an English translation that he can’t quite remember. Shane’s heart squeezes painfully. “He’s-“

    He wants to say my boyfriend is on that plane. He wants to cry, and throw things, and scream the love of my life might be dying while we stand here. But he doesn’t. He can’t. His voice can’t find the words, can’t find the strength to speak, and even if he could - would he? Would Shane tell the whole world that for him, it has always been Ilya? Will only ever be Ilya?

     

    (Or, the plane scene in The Long Game goes a little differently.)

    Summary

    Ilya had never seen Shane as a cruel person. Well. Cruel might be a bit farfetched. It had only started as a tiny locker room joke. There had been chirping and good natured ribbling after the others had seen Ilya with scratch-marks from last night on his shoulders in the showers. Troy had leant over and said, “Didn’t know Hollzy was a Tiger in bed, Roz.” In that teasing tone of his and Ilya had let out an amused huff. “Please. Is not tiger. Is tiny kitten.”

    Summary

    Shane laughed. “You wanna kiss me on television?”

    “Yes. After I win the Stanley Cup.”

    Shane spread his arms out. “Oh, so in this romantic scenario, you’ve just defeated me?”

    “Yes. Sorry.”

    Luca Haas has a rough start into the new season with an injury ending his first game prematurely. But maybe now he'll find the time to sort out his off-the-ice life, far away from his family and with someone unexpected by his side.

    Summary

    "You were so scared of wanting me," Ilya said. "Was cute."

    Shane's face grew even warmer. "Shut up."

    "Like little deer. Little gay deer." Ilya tenderly stroked his hand through Shane's hair.

    "No I wasn't," Shane protested weakly as a shiver traveled down his spine. For a second he was back in that shower. Watching Ilya. Paralyzed. Transfixed.

    While watching a documentary about their year-long rivalry, Ilya and Shane reminisce about the beginnings of their relationship.

    Summary

    If you would have told Shane ten years ago that Ilya Rozanov would be cooking him his birthday breakfast that they ate outside on the porch of their shared house with their dog running around the backyard, Shane would have laughed out loud. And then he probably would have cried because it felt like such a pipe dream.

    or, a year after the events of The Long Game, Shane and Ilya spend their first birthdays together as a married couple

    Summary

    Ilya let himself soften into it. He’d missed this, the simple camaraderie between teammates. He did feel lonely, but in some ways he felt safer with this team, and Shane had given him that, it was because of Shane that he moved to Ottawa. All the good things in his life curved back to Shane. Looking around, he tried to imagine him here, not Shane Hollander the hockey player, but his Shane, the man who made the darkest rooms feel like home. He felt suddenly certain that they would welcome him with love and respect. And, God help him, he was still hoping like an idiot that Shane would walk through the door.

    Ilya tightened his grip on his roasting stick, jaw set, trying to divert his thoughts back to the present, when a ripple went through the group. Conversation dipped, then stopped completely.

    “Um… what the fuck,” Dillon muttered, eyes flicking toward the house. “Is that Shane Hollander?”

    Or Shane decides to go get his man after seeing Ilya’s instagram post in Chap.23 of TLG.
