Summary
“Shane, I never want to, how you say, step on toes, but you were not focused on nutrition. You were obsessed. Was actually a little scary.” They had never really talked about Shane’s eating habits. They danced around it over the years, Ilya always poking fun. But Shane knew deep down it was a minor problem (okay, okay, a bit bigger than minor) and he knew Ilya was worried. Ilya knew it would creep back in every so often. Shane went to therapy for a few months but never really shared with Ilya what they talked about. This was the one area in his life he had a hard time talking about, even with Ilya. “Maybe we need to talk about therapy again, it helped, yes?” Ilya continued. “A little. Yeah, I guess I should consider it”, sighed Shane. “Shane, I know it is hard for you to talk about. If you cannot with me, you should talk to therapist. Galina has helped, you never know”. Shane sighed again and Ilya kissed his cheek, getting up to make a quick snack for them both. Shane had so much more he wanted to say, but had no idea how to say it. Maybe Ilya was right, maybe therapy would help.
OR
Shane's ED never really went away, and it has resurfaced in his 30s with a child.

Summary
Shane isn’t crazy, no matter what anyone tells him. Ilya might love his mental illness a little too much.

But they discover love, and life, is never that easy.
As they grow into themselves at Sana Wellness and beyond, they're forced to reckon with their own minds, each other and decide what in this world is truly worth living for.

Summary
In 2022, Ilya wakes up in a hospital in Ottawa with no memory of how he got there. He has hazy recollections of 2015, but he can't remember anything about the past seven years. He is shocked to learn he is now married to Shane Hollander, a fact that forces him to reconcile the decisions of his past self with the expectations he inherited from his father.
--“I have this for you.” Hollander reached into his pocket, pulling out something gold, glinting under the cold hospital lighting. Holding his fist out, Hollander unfurled his hand, and the bottom fell out of Ilya’s heart, cratering through his stomach and spilling onto the floor.
Shane Hollander stood before him, palm outstretched, cradling Irina Rozanova’s golden crucifix.
Ilya flinched back, like he had been burned. Hollander’s warmth had moved too close, too fast, morphing into a threat and a violation. Hollander should not have that cross.

Summary
Galina makes it a point to remind Ilya that people aren’t mind readers, and unfortunately, if there’s something wrong, he has to actually communicate this. He's aware of this. He is. Even though it's always been so much easier said than done, even on a good day.
But when the unthinkable happens, Shane ends up seriously injured, and Ilya can't bring himself to reckon with his role in it all, or how they'll move forward.
Now it's all the more impossible to communicate the weight of his guilt, the feelings of inadequacy, and the all-consuming fear that Shane might not survive.
Alternatively, life as everyone knows it falls apart when Shane takes a bullet that was meant for Ilya.

Summary
*COMPLETE* (There may be a part 2)
Set after the events of The Long Game. Shane has joined the Centaurs in Ottawa. I wanted to look at how Shane would recognize and cope with his eating disorder. I did my best to keep this realistic but please take care when reading. I promise this will have a happy ending if you stick with it.
