  2. Summary

    I discovered Young Royals this summer and fell in love. I think the ending is perfect for the show, allowing for both closure and enough openness to be fertile ground for the fandom's imagination.

    HOWEVER. After cogitating on it for a few weeks and reading a LOT of fanfic, I realised that in order for me to buy any kind of canon compliant happy ending for Wilmon, I needed to see much more character growth, development, and conversation happening. Hence these stories. Hope you enjoy!

    Summary

    When Ilya Rozanov goes down on the ice, the Boston Bears are already moving to defend their captain. No one expects Shane Hollander, captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, to be the one who throws the first punch.

    Or: the Boston Bears figure out Ilya and Shane’s relationship first—and decide that instead of letting their captain move to fucking Ottawa, they’ll just kidnap a his boyfriend instead. Shane Hollander would make a better Bear anyway.

    Summary

    When it happens the puck has just left his stick.

    It's a clean hit, but Shane takes it horribly, crumbling on impact and colliding with the boards. While he tries valiantly to keep his head up, he feels himself slide sideways and his last fully coherent thought occurs as his head cracks against both the ice and the bottom edge of the boards.

    Immediately, the arena starts to wilt.

    “… We just want a future.”

    “I have only been in love with one person…”

    Shane falls backwards and sinks, the ice turning to water beneath him.

    “Holy shit. I love you too…”

    “I love you…”

    The words—memories?— are swimming amongst him, angled and distorted; they consume him, they’re are all he can process, even as someone else—a medic, maybe?— on the periphery now, says, "Just stay still Hollander."

    -

    Or, upon appearing in a parallel world, canon-Shane is on a mission to fix AU-Shane's fucked-up life. Stat.

    Summary

    When Shane Hollander looks into the future he sees— not a flat sheet of ice, not that, not anymore, but something equally as empty.

    His backup plan was always to go to university. He hadn't thought he'd ever need it, not really. Especially not near the end, when everything felt so certain. But his grades were good, his mom made sure of that, so when he woke up in the hospital he already knew what he was going to do next. But after?

    There's a standard path people take, he knows, that comes after school. But when he tries to picture it, slot himself into the picket fence and the corporate overhead fluorescents, it disappears. Like it was never going to be real at all.

    (Or: after ending up at a jazz bar to celebrate the end of finals season, Shane Hollander finds himself where he never thought he'd be— in the orbit of NHL superstar Ilya Rozanov.)

    Summary

    HOLLANDER AND ROZANOV IN SHOCKING VEGAS PHOTOS!

    Star Players Have Yet to Issue Comment on Alleged Wedding Photos Leaked Online.

    The photo below was of the two of them in their tuxes, with dopey, boozed-out, lust-drunk expressions on their faces. Rozanov’s hand was gripped tightly—possessively—around Shane’s jaw, their mouths inches apart, clearly about to kiss.

    Rozanov’s hand had a wedding ring on it.

    Shane sends the “we didn’t even kiss” text. Their night in Vegas doesn’t end there. And their lives will never be the same…
