    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is twenty years old when Svetlana calls to tell him she's pregnant. He is twenty-two when she dies, leaving him with two sons under the age of two, a promise he doesn't know how to keep, and Shane Hollander's number saved in his phone under a different name.

    or, a story about grief, fatherhood, and the long way back to yourself (and the man who has been waiting there the whole time).

    Summary

    Shane said nothing else. He just sat there, completely fucking numb, and watched with hot bile rising in his throat, as that first damned medic leaned over Ilya’s chest, hands locked, counting loudly, repetitively. He winced as he watched Ilya’s chest dip with every compression, his precious ribs probably cracking under the sheer pressure. There was a mask over Ilya’s nose and mouth, the same sweet, perfect nose that Shane liked to nuzzle with his own, the soft, pink - and helplessly parted - lips that Shane liked to kiss with his own. 

    “Dyshi, Ilya,” Shane was crying now, entirely fucking inconsolable as he watched the man he was engaged to marry lie on the ice, lifeless and cold and dead. “Dyshi, pozhaluysta. Breathe, Ilya. Please.” 

     

    shane hollander took a hit from cliff marlow years ago. he can't remember much of it.

    ilya rozanov takes a hit from one of shane's old teammates, and shane sees red. but it's not because he wants to kill jj. it's the blood pouring from ilya's nose and staining the ice.

    it's watching the love of his life die in front of him.

    Summary

    They pulled in a man, bound by his wrists and throat, the lower half of his face hidden beneath a metal muzzle. He walked with a limp, weighed down by the chains on his body and stumbled as the guards pulled at the chains viciously, just barely able to keep himself upright.

    It took a moment for the scent to fill the room. 

    Or: Rebel Leader Ilya gets captured and presented to the Crown Prince of the Empire, Shane. By logic, they should hate each other. Something's in the air that makes it hard to.

    Summary

    Luca Haas has a meltdown on the ice in the final five minutes of the game.

    Confidence scarred, he throws himself into a summer athlete campaign with the Centaurs to outrun the fear that he’ll never be as skilled, confident, or sexually expressive as Ilya Rozanov was at his age.

    But when “polite” Luca Haas snaps and shocks everyone by starting a fistfight with Filipino-Canadian youth athlete Angelo Perez, summer quickly derails into a dilemma to be seen as mature, living up to the expectations of the team, and these newfound, guilty urges for the very guy he fought on day one.

    Centaur matchmaking. Missing home. A messy summer fling. A mean article. An exploration of what sparks are supposed to feel like. And Ilya catches Luca buying condoms.

    And a “bad influence” that makes Luca feel—maybe for just one summer—that it's okay to be a little selfish.

    OR; Practically a character study of Luca Haas' insecurities + his foil to Rozanov disguised as a fan-made imitation of Rachel's scrapped Haas book

    Summary

    “Is someone chasing you?” Ilya drawls. 

    He turns, and yeah, this guy doesn’t look like much of a smoker. Ilya’s learned through time and experience that stoners come in all shapes and sizes, but it’s clear that he isn’t one: hair cut neat and short, straight-laced, brows furrowed into a scowl, shoulders all tight—too squared away. He’s probably not much of a drinker, either, if Ilya had to guess. 

    And he’s wearing a fucking suit, for Christ’s sake. 

    So boring, Ilya thinks, strangely delighted. He wants to take him by the collar and scruff up his hair, if only to see what he might do in response. 

    Or, Shane's struggling with anxiety. Hayden thinks his grumpy weed dealer might be able to help.
