    Summary

    “I feel really good about this kid, I think he could be great on your wing, he just needs some help settling in. Someone to show him the ropes.”

    “Yes.”

    The line went silent for a moment. Ilya wasn’t really sure why his coach felt the need to run this by him.

    “Rozanov,” his coach said at last. “I want him to live with you.”

    Ilya blinked, then nearly shouted into the phone. “What?”

    Summary

    Ilya knows firsthand that the world isn’t comfortable. It’s loud, bright, demanding, a harsh place in direct opposition to everything he’s recently learned about autism.

    Is it so wrong that he wants Shane to feel safe here? To carve out a space where, even if only for a few hours, he doesn’t have to grin and bear anything? He can just be?

    Or: Ilya Rozanov has a lot of good ideas. Telling his fuck buddy that he should consider getting an autism diagnosis isn’t one of them.

    Summary

    Connor Bedard was supposed to be Chicago’s future—until they decided he wasn’t worth the trouble.

    Traded to Edmonton without warning, Connor doesn’t react. He packs his bags, ignores the headlines, and goes where they tell him. The Oilers welcome him with open arms, but he doesn’t understand why. He’s waiting for the catch—for the cold shoulders, the whispered criticisms, the treatment he’s come to expect.

    But something about Edmonton is different. The team doesn’t just tolerate him; they see him. And for the first time in a long time, Connor starts to wonder—what if hockey wasn’t supposed to feel this way?

    Summary

    Fucking freaks.

    He wanted to yell it. Say it out loud. Throw open the locker room door and declare to every journalist with a notepad and mic, “Will Smith fucks Macklin Celebrini on game days, even when they lose!” Loud enough for every assistant coach and sportsnet segment to hear.

    But he didn’t. Because Gabe was a sweet boy, remember?

    And sweet boys didn’t say that shit.

    Sweet boys didn’t lose their minds over an old fling.

    Sweet boys didn’t burn inside when the person who used to kiss them like a secret now kissed someone else like a promise.

    -------

    Or Gabe needs a rebound.
