    Summary

    As soon as the plane landed, Shane pulled his phone out with everyone else, planning to text Ilya and let him know they'd arrived, but before he could bring up his contacts, his notifications were flooded, phone pinging wildly.

    9 missed calls
    9 new voicemails
    1 text: Ilya <3

    Don't worry about the calls. I just missed you. Everything is fine. See you soon.

    Summary

    A squawk, followed by an incensed, “Jesus! It’s Hayden! Hayden Pike! Shane’s best friend? A guy you’ve played against for years?”

    Oh. This is… not good.

    Ilya very slowly lowers himself down on the bed, spine straight. “Why are you calling?”

    Pike huffs. “Trust me, I don’t want to be.”

    “Okay, then, why? How do you know… Lily?”

    A beat. Then, “You’re Lily.”

    Protectiveness rears its ugly head. Severely, Ilya declares, “This is none of your fucking concern.”

    “He’s asking for you.”

    OR: when Shane gets hurt on the ice, Hayden Pike reaches out to Boston Lily.

    Summary

    “Yes, sweetheart. I’m here.” She tries to school her voice into something neutral, something that hadn’t been up all night, pacing Shane’s luxury hardwoods.

    The place felt haunted without him, not just empty—but expectant. Ginger ale and coke in the fridge, four pieces of salmon marinating in lemon and thyme. There’d been condoms on his nightstand. And lubricant—which was good, wasn’t it? He obviously cared about his partner. Or partners, David had said, unhelpfully.

    ~~

    Or: Yuna visits Shane in the hospital.

    Summary

    Sarah
    Does anyone have the number for Shane's girl from Boston? I feel bad that they've been seeing each other for this long and we've never added her here.

    Jackie
    Oh good point! Let me ask Hayden.

    Jackie has added Lily to the conversation

    Lily

    what is this

    Or: Ilya Rozanov is, apparently, one of the girls.

    Summary

    “And this is Svetlana! You guys have a fun hockey connection. She’s BFFs with—ooh. What’s his name again, babe?”

    “Ilya Rozanov,” says Svetlana. Feeling virtuous about it, she offers her hand first. “Don’t tell him I said you have the best hands in the league.”

    Shane’s face is rigid. “Um. I won’t?”

    “Thank you,” she says gravely. “You have saved a life.” Rose laughs, stroking Shane’s arm, and he suddenly remembers Svetlana’s hand is hanging. He takes it limply and disposes of it quick. His eyes look a little wild.

    Summary

    "Not because he is gay," Ilya says as if to a child. "Because Scott Hunter is seven million years old. It's not right. He should not be with someone so young."

    Shane throws him a tiny, perfect smirk. "When Scott Hunter was his age, he wasn't even born."

    "Exactly! You get it, Hollander," Ilya says, using the excuse to throw an arm around Shane's shoulders. "We must stage intervention. Cannot let nice young man be cradle-snatched."

    Summary

    Ten minutes passed, and Ilya, who normally could drift off easily, only felt more and more wired. He definitely didn't want sex while the other person was feeling bad. The thought made him nauseous. But he found himself still yearning for the release that came with being with Hollander. If not the physical release, the emotional and mental one. Behind his eyelids, all he could see were those damn freckles.

    Ilya gnawed on his lip and decided to toe a line they haven't crossed yet. Ironically, this was one that usually came way before every other line they've already crossed. He picked back up his phone.

     

    Lily: You are sleeping for a few hours in the hotel.

    Jane: Yeah? And?

    Lily: Does it matter if you are sleeping in your room, or in mine?

    Summary

    His hand is steadily aching. Will says, “You shouldn’t have punched him.”

    Mike pushes his fingers into his thighs. “That’s stupid.”

    “I wish you didn’t,” Will readjusts. He brings up a hand to hold Mike’s face again, fingers a little damp where they press against his cheek, his jaw. Mike wants to lean into it. “He isn’t – he doesn’t bother me anymore, you know. What he says. It doesn’t matter. He doesn’t matter.”

    Mike shrugs. “I don’t regret it,” he says, and Will leans away, looks at him properly. “I’d do it again.”

    Mike gets hurt, and Will fixes him up, in more ways than one.

    Summary

    It’s at that very moment that, for reasons completely and utterly unknown to anyone at all, every single possible word he has ever learned from any language ever has suddenly disappeared from his brain, and his throat feels relevant to the Sahara Desert.

    None of this, of course, has to do with the fact that Will is very, very, very – shirtless.

    Will blinks at him. “Are you okay?”

    “Shoulders,” Mike says, sounding vaguely chipmunk-like, and he hears Max barely choke down a snicker.

    Will comes back for the summer, and Mike deals with it.
    Kind of. Not really.

    Summary

    "He's way too young for you," Mike muttered, whipping his head away from Robin and tucking his knees up to his chin. For some reason, he thought this conversation might go a lot worse for him if he looked her in the eye. "And you took him into the woods— where he got taken, I mean, I don't even—" and he shook his head, frowning deeper. "You went against his mom's orders! Can you not even respect his parents?"

    A choked noise snapped Mike back to reality. "You— what?" Robin blinked at him, her mouth hanging slack. "I respect Joyce Byers. Very much."

    With Will unconscious, Mike and Robin find time for a tense chat.

    Summary

    Mike should be waiting by the door for him. Mike should be dropping whatever he’s doing to greet him the moment that he gets home. Nine hours is too long to be apart, and Will is going to lose it. 

    Mike takes approximately eighteen minutes to welcome Will home -- not that he's counting, or anything.

    Summary

    “You’ve really never?” Will asks, finally pulling a box of matches out of his pocket, not the lighter Mike had been expecting. He tips the box of Marlboros out towards Mike again, and this time, he takes one, trying to pretend like the subtle weight of it is not as foreign in his hand as it feels. “Not even once?”

    “No,” Mike says, trying to figure out whether he should be getting defensive or not. “Why? Is it that hard to believe?”

    “I just figured, you know, it’s easier to bum a smoke off of somebody than it is to get your hands on some booze,” Will says thoughtfully. He tucks the cigarettes back into his pocket and plants both hands on the stack of hay behind him, taking a careful step onto the bale already resting by their feet — and then, when it holds his weight, he hoists himself up, legs swinging. “And you’ve done that, so.”

    Will sneaks out for a smoke break. Mike decides to join him.

    Summary

    “You’re thinking,” Will says, skating a finger down the line of Mike’s nose, under his eye, over his cheekbone, then resting, finally, just at the corner of his lips– “about me.”

    Oh, Jesus. Mike’s throat is very, very dry. “What?”

    Will opens his eyes – slow, a little hesitant – and smiles. “You are,” he says, way, way too smug for Mike’s liking. “You’re turning red!”

    “Shut up,” Mike mutters, and Will’s smile grows. “You– I’m just nervous!”

    It should be illegal for someone to look this pleased with themselves. “Yeah?” Will says quietly, index finger still hovering at the corner of Mike’s mouth, thumb pressed gently under his chin. “I make you nervous?”

    Mike thinks Will might be psychic. (Kind of.) Will is being very irritatingly vague about the whole thing.

    Summary

    “Nah, man,” Lucas shakes his head, leaning back as he snacks on an apple, “he got, like, buff. Do you see his arms?”
    Mike does, in fact, see Will’s arms. He has not stopped seeing his arms.
    “She definitely sees his arms,” Dustin very unhelpfully points out, waggling his eyebrows, and Mike gets the overwhelming urge to bash his own head in.

    While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.

    “Yeah, you said that but I’m having trouble understanding.”

    “What’s there to understand?” Will asks him.

    Mike contemplates, then says “Why you’re so quick to defend me.”

    Oh, he’s so fucked. Beyond fucked, even. If there’s such a thing.

    Summary

    Stede can’t help crying out in pain, in the next beat, finally giving in when an instinctive sound comes up. It’s loud, and the crew goes dead silent around him.

    Stede doesn’t even notice. He’s just trying to breathe, skin tugging painfully, when a door bangs open at the opposite end of the ship.

    “What the fuck was that?” Ed demands from afar, voice heard easily over the crash of the sea around them. “Was that Stede? Where the fuck is he?”

    “Oh, no,” Lucius says quietly.

    “If you jump overboard, babe, I swear I’ll come back for you,” Black Pete promises him.

     

    or: lucius accidentally gives stede a flesh wound, and ed loses his mind like they're not all pirates.

    Summary

    Stede follows his gaze, walking over and running his finger over the spines until he stops at the right one. He pulls it out and scans the cover. “‘The Tragedie of Orpheus and Eurydice’. Oh, oh no,” he frowns. “This one’s a bit sad for such a late hour, isn’t it?”

     

    Ed shrugs. “I wouldn’t know, would I? What’s it about?”

     

    Stede’s face does that funny little thing, first assumed to be exasperation that Ed needed such simple, culturally basic clarification, now understood to be Stede organizing himself to not ramble on endlessly, far past the requested answer.

     

    Ed doesn’t tell him he’d prefer the long way ‘round.

     

    In which we tell stories, each a little different than the time before, until something sticks to the wall.

    Summary

    See, Stede had dreamed of many things when picturing his life at sea: adventure, intrigue, fame.

    Romantic encounters, of any particular sort, had not been one of those things. Particularly not with the fearsome pirate Blackbeard, a hulking figure of legends made of ichor, and smoke, and gunpowder.

    Though, to be quite fair, none of those images come to mind at this very moment when Stede looks down at the man who has made his chest into a full-body pillow.

    Or: this time it's Stede's turn to watch Ed sleep.
