    Summary

    The last thing Ilya thinks before the plane crashes is "I would have always chosen you, Hollander."
    The first thing Shane feels when he meets Ilya is curiosity.
    Everything in between is a love story told in opposite directions.

    Or:

    Shane's story is told from the beginning. Ilya's is told from the end.
    Eventually, they meet in the middle.

    ──
    One day I was singing "See I'm Smiling" from The Last Five Years in the shower and thought
    ...what if I told Shane and Ilya's story like this?

    And then this *gestures around* happened.

    Summary

    Shane is in the front pew. His face is—Ilya does not have words for what Shane's face is doing. He has seen Shane angry and afraid and exhausted and soft and undone. He has never seen this: living at the very bottom of a person, surfacing only when every single thing above it has given way.

    This is what it looks like when Shane has nothing left to manage.

    Ilya reaches for him.

    His hand passes through air.

    -

    Or: Ilya Rozanov turns the same age his mother was when she died. Featuring strange dreams, tarot readings, and a woman with her back to him who keeps appearing where she shouldn’t.

    A man who spent twenty years preparing to die, and one husband who refuses to let him.

    Summary

    "Shane felt himself ascend out of his body. So overcome by Ilya working him all night, and then taking him like this with no effort to get Shane off, just to use him. Just to show off how Shane was perfectly shaped, perfectly put on this earth for Ilya to fuck. How Shane’s whole life, his success, his career, his family was just a byproduct of being wholly and entirely Ilya’s. Of his knowledge that if Ilya wanted to keep him down here in this basement with this crowd for the rest of his life, Shane would be just fine because even in his most forlorn state, Ilya knew exactly how to care for him and protect him, how to bring him right to the edge and then effortlessly sweep him up and walk him right back."

    OR

    As they prepare for their second season of being married and playing together, Ilya plans a special date to confirm a few suspicions about some kinks Shane has been harboring. Through an exclusive dinner, show, dance, and darkroom, Shane learns more about himself and the millions of ways Ilya knows and loves him.

    Summary

    Shane’s heart dropped. He nodded once and sat up straighter, shoulders rolled back. “It is. I’m sorry if this is too far or whatever, but it’s what I want and I have to ask for what I want. It’s okay if you don’t want to. I’m not going to break up with you over this.” Or anything, really. Even if Ilya said he couldn’t stay a secret and wanted to fuck other people, Shane would let him.

    Ilya’s own heart split in two at that. He turned, metal scraping wood on the deck, and took both of Shane’s hands in his. Time and trust linked their fingers together automatically.

    “I’m not saying I do not want this,” Ilya began. Shane let out a small breath, shoulders relaxing. “But you must know, the things you are coming up with for sex are not things I have done.”

    Something about the cottage made him be honest. Maybe it was the promise last summer of being honest and saying how they really felt. Maybe it was the distance between that unknown precipice and the leap of faith they took together. Whatever it was, Ilya had to come clean if he was going to keep giving Shane whatever his brain and body wanted.

    Summary

    “It won’t stop,” Shane said to the floor. His hands slid down and grabbed at his crotch, rubbing frantically over his boxers. “I can’t make it stop.”

    They were still in the fucking hallway, and yes, it was six in the morning, but it was not private. Anyone could walk in, from their own apartments or the elevator. And Shane wasn’t exactly being quiet, gasping and groaning as he massaged himself. Viagra didn’t do this. It didn’t make you lose all sense of space, of boundaries, of… yourself.

    This wasn’t normal. This wasn’t natural.

    ***

    The morning after Ilya watches Shane and Rose together at the club, he gets a call from Shane. Something is wrong, and Shane says Ilya is the only one who can fix it. Ilya knows it's a bad idea, but that's never stopped him before.

    Summary

    Ten years ago, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov were the two most ruthless students at University of Michigan Law School. Brilliant, combative, and incapable of staying away from each other, they spent three years trying to out-argue, outmaneuver, and outlast one another in lecture halls, libraries, and the privacy of Shane’s apartment. Somewhere between the rivalry and the obsession, they fell disastrously in love.

    And then it ended horribly.

    Now, a decade later, Shane is a partner at a big-time law firm in Montreal and Ilya is the star attorney in Boston who sticks up for the little guy, and they have been hired to fight on opposite sides of a heated civil trial. The case is supposed to be standard, easy, simple. Instead, it becomes a slow-motion collision with everything they spent ten years trying to bury. In court, the burden of proof is everything. As the trial drags on and old wounds reopen, Shane and Ilya are forced to confront the question they never answered the first time around. Can they prove to themselves that what they had is truly over, or has the verdict already been waiting for them all along?

    Summary

    Starting over was never easy, but Ilya Rozanov wanted to try.

    One year in hell. Then—Canada: a foreign country and a fresh start.

    He had to find himself again. His pride was shattered, his confidence gone. Almost nothing remained of the person he used to be. Still, he had to keep living, even if it was the hardest thing he'd ever done.

    Shane Hollander had never felt so far from Yuna.

    Once, she had been the closest person in his life—then she wasn’t.

    He had spent years being angry at her. There was nothing left between them. Things with his girlfriend weren’t going much better, either. Maybe he just needed something new—a distraction.

    Shane knew he’d be meeting his biggest rival in Saskatchewan. People said he was weird. Brilliant, too.

    Rozanov, right?

    Summary

    Dallas Kent, CEO of a notorious chemical company, is brutally murdered days before he was scheduled to present at an environmental summit. And no one heard or saw anything—not his bodyguard, not his business partner, not the hotel staff, not even the tenacious journalist who keeps popping up around the crime scene.

    It would be a normal day on the job for Detective Ilya Rozanov, except for one thing. The partner he's been assigned for the case is his old flame from his academy days: Shane Hollander, the man he's spent five years trying to forget.

    A speculative fiction noir AU. My love letter to port towns, detective fiction, Disco Elysium, sea shanties, and of course, Hollanov.

    Summary

    Ilya’s brows quirked again, and he flicked open the first page of the textbook, ‘and you decided to learn Russian now because...?’

    ‘You never learned with me.’ Ilya said.

    ‘No.’ Shane replied, tersely, ‘there was a lot I never did with you.’

    Or: After Shane's college relationship ends in heartbreak, he patches up his wounds by marrying a wealthy, older man, and he's so sure his life is perfect. That is, until his ex re-enters the picture, and he wonders if maybe he got it all wrong.

    Summary

    It’s the most famous cold case in hockey history. Up-and-coming Russian phenom Ilya Rozanov mysteriously vanishes the summer before his rookie season. Despite extensive police work, no trace of the young superstar is ever found.

    Shane Hollander remembers Ilya Rozanov. Better than most. And now, several years retired and with two highly successful hockey biographies under his belt, he’s taking a crack at the mystery that’s haunted his own career with strings of what-ifs and memories revisited so often they’ve softened like old cotton.

    Perhaps now, with the long eye of perspective between him and those memories, he can unravel the short lifetime of the man poised to become his biggest rival and best kept secret. Travelling to Russia he searches for stories and the answers they hold.

    If only this damn dog that’s apparently a local cryptid would stop raiding his trash cans.

     
    It has wandered this place for years. It knows every stream, every hill, every tree. Every pale, flat face in the place of straight lines. It does not know this face.

    But it remembers dark eyes and star-dots across the cheeks.
    It cannot remember its own name.

    But it remembers him.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander was doing fine. He was about to start his fourth year at Concordia University in Montreal, where he was now Captain of the Stingers, he had a solid group of friends who actually knew he was gay and were cool about it, and this time next year he would be playing for the Metros.

    He was doing great, really.

    Or he had been, until none other than Ilya Rozanov, the 28 year old KHL player who had recently disapeared from the world of hockey, became his professor and mentor.

    or: Coach Theriault inadvertently sets up professor-Ilya and student/hockey captain-Shane.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander moves from his hometown of Ottawa, Ontario to New York City where he can follow his dreams. Kind of. Like most artists, he pays his dues tending bar while making short films with his friends in his spare time. He gets a job working at the Kingfisher, a gay bar owned by hockey player Scott Hunter and retired goalie Eric Bennett. Ilya Rozanov plays for the Brooklyn Beasts, and, while he respects Scott Hunter a lot more since he came out, they play for rival New York teams, so they don't exactly love each other. Ilya likes to visit the Kingfisher, though he hasn't come out yet. Since his father died and he has no one back in Russia he cares about, he's felt a lot more free to be himself. One night, he gets mesmerized by a bartender with pretty freckles, and he won't stop until he gets what he wants.

    Summary

    Once upon a time, in the city of angels, Shane Hollander took a brief journey to hell and back.

    Dying and coming back as a vampire at the age of twenty-seven was never part of Shane's longterm plan, but just because he's now staring the desolate perpetuity of immortality in the face doesn't mean that anything about his life has to change. He can still play hockey. He can still win another Cup. He can still keep his secrets. The only difference is that he has to drink a little bit of blood sometimes. No big deal.

    So what happens when Shane's trusted blood delivery service sends a handsome feeder to his doorstep and all of his careful plans suddenly become dust in the wind? What do we do with desire when we're so used to denying ourselves of it?

    OR; Shane is a rich vampire, Ilya is a broke grad student, and they enter into a mutually beneficial arrangement that involves a lot of blood, biting, and gay sex.
