    Summary

    Ilya knows that no one loves the same version of a person; his Shane is different to Yuna’s Shane, who is different to David’s Shane, who is different to J.J., or Rose, or Hayden’s Shane. And while Ilya knows he’d fall in love with every single version, he’s happy he gets this one. Happy he gets the Shane who lets himself be trusting, and vulnerable, and honest.

    It makes Ilya wish he could have loved Shane earlier - makes him wish he could have known him longer. But he’s just glad he gets to do it now, here, like this.

     

    (Or, four times people are surprised by Shane’s clinginess, and one time they completely expect it.)

    Summary

    Ilya had thought it was dumb, when Galina suggested it. A code word for when his mental health was bad—he and Shane didn’t even have a code word for sex, and Ilya was regularly tying Shane to the bed and slapping his ass until it was as red as a tomato.

    “Is there a reason you’re calling me?” Shane asks now, voice echoey over the phone. “Or is this part of your strategy to win our argument?”

    Ilya swallows hard. “Constantinople,” he says.

    --

    Or: Ilya goes through a rough patch.

    Summary

    “You are not… hole. You are” Ilya gestures emphatically to encompass Shane and his entire body “You are… whole!” He frowns. “English is stupid.”

    They’ve tried virtually everything together at this point, or at least everything they care to try, and it’s all been good, great, bordering on perfect, so why does this feel different?

     

    Or, musings on the social significance of sexual roles, internalized homophobia/misogyny, and Ilya’s perfect butt.

    Summary

    The day before the first “official” day of training camp was always a grind. They started off with medical and fitness testing and the ceremonial peeing in a cup as the first official acts of the new season. Then the hockey players - after baring more than just their souls to a team of medical professionals - would be handed over to a caffeine-fueled marketing department for a couple of hours.

    It's media day ahead of the Ottawa Centaurs training camp, and Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are ready to go through the gauntlet.

    Summary

    “Mmm. You want it bad,” Ilya purrs, teeth grazing the column of his throat.

    “Yeah,” Shane whines, hating how petulant it sounds. A fresh flare of determination rises up in response. “Just give it to me. Ilya. I can—just go hard. Just make it fit.”

    Ilya laughs quietly, incredulously. It’s hot against Shane’s ear. “Make it fit."

    -

    Or: in the midst of a stressful season, Shane's a little... out of practice. He's not gonna let that stop him getting what he wants.
