    Summary

    Ilya doesn’t even try to stop the litany of Russian swears from spilling out. He also doesn’t stop himself from cursing Marly’s whole family line, and then verbalizing some of his more homicidal thoughts about Scott Hunter and the kitchen sink. He lets his Russian ranting die out and takes a few deep breaths.

    Everyone has quieted to look at him.

    “Feel better?” Marly asks.

    Maybe Ilya could drown Marly in the sink along with Hunter. Maybe he could kill everyone in the suite before Shane wakes up. He’d have to kill the butler guy, too…and the front of house staff…and the wedding chapel staff…and then convince Shane to run away with him to somewhere that would neither extradite to the US nor prosecute them for being gay. Messy. Too messy.

    OR

    Ilya wakes up with a wedding ring and a WHOLE LOT of questions...but at least Marly and Scott fucking Hunter are having a good time. This is Ilya's worst nightmare which, as it turns out, features a night of blackout drinking, misguided but supportive friends, and some VERY stupid decisions.

    Summary

    intermission

    /ˌɪntəˈmɪʃən/
    noun
    An interval between two parts of the same story. Often mistaken for an ending.


    The All-Star Game is supposed to be harmless. Bright lights, broadcast smiles, forced camaraderie, famous rivals pretending none of it matters.

    Shane can handle all of that. What he cannot handle is Ilya two corridors away, wearing the wrong jersey, captaining the wrong team, and acting like they are not in love.

    Then a bomb threat empties the arena before puck drop. The players are told to stay in their dressing rooms. The delay becomes a lockdown. The lockdown becomes captivity.

    Below the ice, with the league’s most valuable players held as hostages, Shane and Ilya have to survive the night without reaching for each other, without giving themselves away, and without letting fear turn into something worse.

    OR
    A hostage crisis, three targeted All-Stars, and Shane trying not to lose his mind every time Ilya opens his mouth.

    Summary

    Cliff would probably remember if he was there when Ilya met a woman so earth-shattering that he would chase after her for nearly a decade. Probably. Cliff thinks he would probably notice something as life-altering as a meeting like that. Who on earth is this woman and how did they find each other? Did Cliff watch Ilya’s life change before his eyes and not even realize what was happening?

     

    In the fall of 2017, Cliff Marlow notices evidence of Jane all over Ilya’s apartment. He decides to investigate.

    Summary

    "It's just dancing, Shane," Hayden jokes. "We're not going to war."

    "You may not remember my wedding day that much, dude, but I do. This is going to be a lot."

    Despite all that, he didn't care. He wants to stand with his friends and teammates and show them, openly and loudly, how much he loves his husband. He wants to share this deeply special part of his life with them in the way he's stood by and watched others do for so many years, still savouring the fact that he really gets to have it all.

    Shane and Ilya are hosting the Centaurs' annual end of season send off party. Between heated food debates, arguing about early playoff exits and a few cups of rum, Shane finds himself thinking about the journey it took to get him here, showing off his love for the world to see.

    He has a lot of feelings about it. He swears he's not an emotional drunk.

    Summary

    Svetlana and Ilya do not talk about their mothers, or Sasha, or the first woman Svetlana falls in love with. They fuck, and they watch hockey, and somewhere down the line, Svetlana decides that this has to be enough.
    Svetlana does not call her mother, and she will not talk about Ilya’s mother with him. God, she wonders, why did it have to be Irina?

    Svetlana Vetrova is smart enough to know when to keep her mouth shut. Shane Hollander is too stupid to ever let Ilya open his.

    Summary

    Welcome to the Ultimate Game.

    If you’re looking for a chronicle of redemption or, worse yet, a fairy tale ending with a kiss under the snow, you’ve walked into the wrong locker room. This is the story of a sabotage.

    For ten years, the hockey world has feasted on the rivalry between two captains with the same hunger one brings to a public execution. And us? We served them the blood on a silver platter, while in the shadows of hotel rooms in Montreal or Boston, we exchanged fluids and secrets with the precision of two spies in enemy territory.

    They believe the ice is a sanctuary of heterosexual secrets. They don’t realize that while they were betting on our next elbow to the face, they were witnessing a long, violent decade of foreplay.

    Now, it’s time for El Plan.

    Shane is the butterfly flapping its wings on an underwear billboard. I am the tornado about to level the entire NHL.

    Grab your popcorn. It’s going to be a beautiful massacre.

    My name is Ilya Rozanov, and you can thank me later.

    Or: how Shane and Ilya gaslit the entire world by officially "starting to date" in 2020.

    Summary

    Five times Ilya asks Shane to dance.
    On a dock under candlelight, when love is still too new and too frightening to name properly.
    On a balcony in Brazil, when the whole world has finally been allowed to know.
    In their kitchen, on the worst night of a good year, when love had to be fiercer than comfort.
    In their living room after the last game has already been played.
    At their daughter’s wedding, in front of the life they built together.
    And once, years later, Shane asks Ilya.
    Just for one more dance.

    Summary

    The Swiss National League doesn’t care about the legendary Hollander-Rozanov rivalry. When the MLH can’t negotiate with the Hockey Players’ Union in time to prevent a hockey lockout at the start of the 2015 season, the Zürich Lions jump at the chance to sign both Shane and Ilya to short-term contracts. For four months in Switzerland, they share a team, a line, a house, and a bed. 

    Then the lockout ends in January, and it’s time to go back. Back to different countries, cities, lives. Beds.

    Reentry is harder than expected.

    Summary

    “You are planning to rob me or what?” He hears Rozanov call, and he can’t help but smile slightly even as he rolls his eyes, closing the door to the linen closet and feeling strangely lighter than when he opened it, reassured that he’s just trying to read into a blank page, that today doesn’t mean anything more than Rozanov doesn’t mind him being around, which is strangely flattering.

    “I don’t know,” he calls back. “Don’t Russians like diamonds and fur and stuff? Where should I start looking if I want to know what my options are?”

    He hears Rozanov laugh, and it makes him smile.

    When he joins him in the living room once more, Rozanov tugs him down to lean against him again. Shane goes easier this time, settling into it, knowing it doesn’t mean anything other than the fact that he just happens to be the closest warm body, the person on Rozanov’s roster who filled today’s slot.

    (the tuna meltdown doesn't happen) (this does not mean they get ANY better at communication)

    (or: how shane didn't realize he had a boyfriend for several months)

    Summary

    “Can’t hang out tonight, Hayd. I have plans.”

    “Bullshit,” Hayden responds. “You never have plans.”

    Objectively, this used to be true. Nowadays Shane has many, many plans, between his nightly plans to look at Ilya’s penis through Skype and his various long-term plans laid out helpfully in his notebook, Canva (For Ilya’s sake. He is a visual learner), and more recently, Excel. Shane loves that excel sheet. He’s colour coded it.

     

    In 2017, Shane Hollander spirals and proposes to his boyfriend of 4 days (or 7 years, or 9 years, or not his boyfriend at all, depending on how you look at it), which leads to a lot of plans, weird theories in the Montreal Voyageur locker room, some Twitter drama, and Ilya Rozanov entering his WAG era.

    Summary

    After the tuna melt meltdown, Shane meets Rose Landry, has several deeply inconvenient revelations, and decides to do the only sensible thing: win Ilya back with sincerity, logistics, and a frankly alarming amount of emotional effort.

    Ilya, meanwhile, mistakes every tender gesture for the kind prelude to an inevitable goodbye.

    Or: Shane is living in a romcom. Ilya is living in a Russian tragedy.

    Summary

    “...you don't think they want you to captain Team Canada?"

    Shane was wearing a nervous little smile, like he thought maybe everyone’s confusion was a prank, like he hadn’t handed the reporters a solid gold brick when they’d expected two cents.

    “Well. If the C goes to one of us, of course Ilya will be captain.”

    There was a moment of silence before half the cameras turned towards Ilya and the sound of shutters struck like a tsunami.

    Ilya Rozanov, not just in a red Canada jersey, but with a “C” on the front—?

    The MLH, the media, and apparently the entirety of Canada reacted Very Normally to this.

    Summary

    “So, how long have you been holding onto that bellboy fantasy?” Ilya asks, smooth as anything.

    Smooth as the ice after double overtime, Shane spits mouthwash all over the mirror.

    They catch each other’s eye in the spotty reflection and both double over laughing.

    Ilya cleans the mirror and the counter while Shane cleans himself, and Ilya wisely waits until they’ve finished breakfast and Shane’s loading the dishwasher to repeat his question.

    “Why do you think I’ve been holding onto it? I could have just made it up on the spot,” Shane tries.

    “I have known you ten years, Shane.”

    “I might have!”

    Ilya just looks at him.

    Or, Ilya wants to know more about Shane's sexual fantasies and doesn't quite get that Shane's fantasies of all kinds are Ilya Rozanov.

    Summary

    “You said Rozanov is a great captain,” one of the reporters says, deviating from the usual script. “What makes him one? Do you think he’s better than you?”

    If Ilya was here, Shane would immediately answer with a negative. He would also let Ilya be the one to brag about his many, many accomplishments, and maybe banter with him about who’s got more.

    But Ilya’s not here.

    And Shane is bored.

    Or.
    Shane spends a post game interview explaining that his husband is the best captain in the league and accidentally starts a hashtag.
