Summary
Arthur, a young man raised by his sickly mother on stories of a great kingdom ruled by a great man after whom he was named, has spent the better part of his life researching the existence of this lost and oft-forgotten land. After receiving a mysterious letter simply signed with the initial M soon after his fifteenth birthday, along with inheriting a silver sword pendant after his mother's death only a few years later, that gave him few answers and even more questions, Arthur has been more dedicated than ever to discovering what destiny has awaited him through countless lifetimes.

“jimin-ah?” kim seokjin asked, his voice holding a hint of concern.

Baby's First Fight (How's That For Boring) by SageGreenSadness
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV)

Summary
Shane throws one punch, gets a god complex, and Ilya realises he is so down bad for his husband.
“You were defending my honour, Hollander?”
There’s warmth laced in the words, and Shane can’t help but laugh ever so slightly, but he catches something serious in Ilya’s expression.
“Can I tell you something?”
Shane nods, hoping he’s finally going to get some sort of explanation for Ilya’s bizarre behaviour. For a second, he worries that he might be mad, although it would be ironic for Ilya to lecture anyone on reckless behaviour since he's been its number one proponent since birth.
“It was so hot.”

Summary
“I need to talk to you.”
Ilya pretends to peer around, exaggerated, chin jutting, then points at himself. “Me?"
“Who the fuck else, Ilya?” Shane hisses Ilya’s name, sees his pupils dilate. “Go to the bathroom. I’ll meet you there in five.”
Ilya looks dazed, then shakes his hair out of his face and rights himself, reaches for another shot. “You do not tell me what to do, Hollander.”
Shane is going to kill him.
Or, Shane and Ilya, at the club, post-game. Ilya has let Boston’s victory get to his head and Shane brings him back down to earth.

Summary
“I want to eat you,” Ilya tells him.
Shane laughs, loud and bright and carefree, and Ilya feels it blooming inside of his chest like a sunflower. It only makes the desire to consume him grow even stronger. Not in a crazy way (probably), but because he feels like he can never get enough of this man. His Shane. His husband. No amount of time, no amount of closeness, ever feels like it could be enough.
He wants them both to be eternal, wants to live with their ribcages locked together and their hearts thumping against each other.

Summary
This is not fic! This is meta about the basics of hockey that might be useful if you're coming from absolute zero but you like some gay hockey boys.
(Originally I posted it on tumblr but I was asked to cross-post to AO3 for accessibility.)
