Summary
In hindsight, Shane should have known that it could not last, that he should not trust the apparent ease with which they found a rhythm, a set of hard boundaries they silently drew and tacitly agreed not to push against. He should have foreseen the unsustainability of building walls over growing feelings. Shane should have known, but he didn't.
Or, an extended study of Shane's marvelous journey of self-discovery as he fucks his way into a committed relationship.

Summary
Hayden ran up, grabbed his hand and said in his dad-of-a-kid-having-a-meltdown voice “Hey, hey, it’s going to be okay Shane. They’re going to take good care of you. That appendix is going to come right out and you’ll be back in no time.”
Shane’s teary eyes widened and then narrowed.
“What?” he gasped out between shallow breaths.
“Fuckin' hell, I told him not to say that.” the doctor muttered.
“What do you mean? It’s not his appendix? What’s going on?”
“Hollander is in labor and the baby is coming very soon, so Pike please let the EMT’s load him up. He’s going to Montreal General. We called his parents and they’re on their way.”
______________________________
Shane Hollander had been under a lot of stress lately, coming out to his team, supporting his secret boyfriend, ect. So something may have slipped through the cracks and was now going to make itself known right here on the ice of this Ottawa vs. Montreal game.

Summary
“I know you said you couldn’t do this week,” a woman was yelling from outside, “but I have to take an extra shift, and Magda is away. Ilya! Are you th-” She paused upon finally stepping inside, a colourful backpack hanging over her shoulder and a bag in her hand. “Oh.”
Shane could hear Rozanov scrambling behind him, probably wiping his stomach off and pulling his clothes out of their rumpled sex state, before he stepped into view of the door.
The small child who had been staring at Shane with her gigantic blue eyes turned at the movement, and her face split into a wide grin. “Papa!”
Picking up right after the tuna melt scene Shane is confronted with Ilya Rozanov's secret child, a move that everyone except for the child is embarrassed and awkward about.

Summary
“Did we win the game? Why is Il— Rozanov here?” Shane croaks, confusion written plainly on his face. One of his arms is in a sling. He shifts and winces, his good hand hovering idly over his stomach, then pressing into his eyes. He’s aching all over, this sudden feeling of wrong, wrong, wrong engulfing his entire body.
“What happened?” he asks, more alert now, “Where am I?”
Hayden just looks at him, shock and heartbreak written all over his face.
Or, post-marleau’s hit, shane ends up in the hospital. he ends up with a broken collarbone, concussion and a devastating loss he’d never anticipated.

Operation O Canada, or The Hollander-Rozanov Method of Soft Launching a Marriage by robbinscinquefoil

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
Shane let out a put-upon sigh and stepped into Dr. Terry's office, closing the door behind him. “So, I was really nauseous this morning. Threw up a little. And Ilya is making me come talk to you about it.”
Terry quirked an eyebrow at him. “Husband Ilya or Captain Rozanov?”
“Both.”
“Oof.” Terry gestured at him to take a seat. “You sure you’re not dying, bud?"

Summary
After a rocky start, Michael and Pen become friends much to the chagrin of two of the Bridgertons. Together, they cause all sorts of mayhem. One dance was all it took to rustle the hidden feelings and baffle the minds of a charming Bridgerton and a quiet Bridgerton.
RMB + WHWW Cross-Over- Set after Penelope asked Colin to kiss her in (RMB), and set after Michael comes back from India (WHWW)
TL;DR: Basically Pen and Michael become friends, they would make the best of friends (or lovers!), and Francesca and Colin aren’t having it.
