Summary
In a world of magical gifts, Joshua cannot use his magic freely in Korea under the eye of a conservative culture. Being caught doing so? It invites disaster… When the worst happens, Joshua faces a frighteningly quiet new world. In the midst of Seventeen's debut, Joshua must adapt quickly – but he’s not alone and can count on some treasured friends on this new journey.
With each passing moment Joshua can feel the easing in Seokmin’s energy, the illness slowly relenting. The sharp fraying feeling that had reached up Seokmin’s throat gentles under Joshua’s will. A smile breaks across Joshua's face, his hands pulsing with the gentle warmth of the healing magic. Seokmin won’t be up tomorrow, or the next day – but. But he might be up the day –
“What - are you doing.”

Summary
There was a burst of static, a gusty sigh. "Shanushka, you have the biggest 'bottom eyes' I have ever seen."
"That's not a thing."
"It is absolutely a thing, and that thing is you," she cackled, and he hung up the phone, ears so hot they should have been smoking.

Or, Shane meets Svetlana first, and it changes everything and nothing.

Summary
It's been three years since Shane was kidnapped in Montreal before Sochi, and he had discovered the completely healthy coping mechanism of not thinking about it.
He had other, more pressing issues: a third Stanley Cup run, a secret marriage, a murderous fan base, and free agency on the horizon.
The whole kidnapping thing was easy to ignore now. He could almost believe it was just a story that happened to someone else.
Or: Shane and Ilya are just trying to move past it all, and the past says no.

Summary
They may not have any idea how to do it, but there’s no way in hell the Montreal Metros are going to risk losing their Captain to a more accepting team. Full of determination, grit, open hearts, and absolutely no savvy, this team is going to learn how to be allies, come hell or high water.
Hayden: did anyone do the optional inclusivity training last season?
J.J. Boizeau: no
Lawrence Olsson: no
Gilbert Comeau: no
Petro Andropov: no
Matty Wilson: no
Cam Stedlund: no
Albert Schneider: no
Aleks Miitka: no
Georges Gagnon: no

Summary
Rough palms slip past his coat, under his sweatshirt, to his skin. “So it’s not serious then? Your upper body injury.”
Shane almost laughs. “I don’t know.” He almost cries.
A hand slides up towards his chest. “Hollander—”
“Stop.”
He holds on to Rozanov’s wrists even as they pull away.
“Did I hurt you?”
“No,” but the cardiac monitor would’ve been palpable under his skin.
Canon-divergent from September 2010, when Shane suffers a cardiac event during training camp that forces his medical retirement before he ever plays a single game with Montreal. Without his playing career, Shane goes to college, finds his way back to hockey through coaching, and somehow, even without the heat of rivalry, finds his way to Ilya, too.
