    Summary

    Ilya is relieved to get out of Montreal and forget he ever saw Shane at the nightclub. That is, until his plane starts to go down and he's forced to confront everything he's tried so hard not to think about.

    Or, what if this specific event occurs earlier on than it did in The Long Game?

    Summary

    Shane remembers the way the world tilted, how he stumbled out the door, how the air felt wrong in his lungs. He was laughing, he thinks. At one point. He was crying. He couldn’t tell the difference. Somewhere behind him, Hayden’s footsteps followed, distorted, distant, like they were coming through water.

    He remembers thinking, with a terrible and absolute certainty: Ilya is dead.

    And then, just as quickly, just as absurdly: I need to talk to Ilya about this.

    -

    Or: An alternate/expanded take on the days following the Centaurs' emergency landing, featuring Shane's inability to accept proof, Ilya's stubborn insistence on being alive, and the particular difficulty of loving someone whose heart has had every reason to stop, maybe even before the crash.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov does not come pre-installed with good communication or healthy coping skills. Is he going to seek out help on his own? Hell no! But when a family member kills himself, fellow Boston Raider and friend Cliff Marleau decides that Ilya is going to therapy come hell or high water. And Ilya... well, Ilya is just playing along to keep the peace. Right? He doesn't need therapy. But if it helps his friend be less worried, so be it.

    OR

    What if Ilya came into the tuna meltdown with slightly upgraded social skills and no one actually ran away before they had a conversation?

    Summary

    The Centaurs’ plane makes an emergency landing in Ottawa, and in the moments before impact, Ilya calls Shane thinking it might be the last time they ever speak.

    While the world waits for official updates, Shane races to the airport and finds the other WAGs trapped behind police barricades, watching smoke rise over the runway. The moment the players emerge alive onto the tarmac, Shane is the first one over the barrier.
