    Summary

    “Just one more question, Mr. Rozanov.”

    “How were you able to stay focused tonight after learning of your father's passing?”

    Ilya stood frozen, eyes glued to the camera. Jaw locked. On the screen, his chest barely moved, each breath turning dangerously shallow.

    Shane didn't realize what he was doing until he was already shoving the heavy conference room doors open.

    Or: Ilya Rozanov learns of his father's death during a live press conference and has a panic attack. Shane goes to him. In front of everyone.

    Summary

    In which Andrew gets a job as a bouncer in the same club where Neil strips.

    He has a rule — a firm one, one he thinks is the only reason he stays sane despite everything — which is to touch Neil as little as possible. It's a self-imposed torture. It’s his last line of defense.

    -

    Or: He fucking breaks it.

    Summary

    Nathaniel Wesninski has only known the tower he was raised in and a grand total of five people: his father, and his father's friends. After his father refuses to take him to see the floating lights that light up every year on his birthday, he recruits the help of a morally dubious blond home intruder named Andrew. Along the way he meets a ragtag gang named The Foxes, makes several escapes from not-so-well-meaning strangers, and finds himself entranced with the grumpy blond man acting as his guide.
    But with his father close on his heels and magic burning through his veins, he should have known his journey wouldn't remain so simple.

    Summary

    “Fucking look at this shit,” Hayden pulls a rectangular object from the box, pointing it in Shane’s direction so he can clearly see the picture on the cover of the PlayStation game in his hands.

    And now Shane is absolutely having some sort of panic-and-pheromone-induced fever dream, because why the fuck is he looking at Ilya Rozanov’s face, scowling at him right then and there in front of God, the Boston seaport that’s visible outside the hotel window, and his best friend Hayden Pike?!

    “Whoever these fans are, they aren’t ones of yours,” Hayden sighs as if he’s actually disappointed in this mystery gift-giver. 

    “I - I don’t think I’ve seen this one,” Shane stammers out, his eyes still pinned on Ilya’s form in 4k HD photo relief grasped in Hayden’s fingertips - fingertips that Shane is suddenly, unreasonably, and very concerningly jealous of. 

    ***

    or - how Shane ended up owning that video game with Ilya's face on the cover, and what it meant to him over the years.
