Summary
“Well. I came out to the team as gay a few weeks ago. Apparently they decided they’d rather spend their time calling me a ‘geisha whore’ and standing around than doing their fucking jobs,” Shane said, dejectedly. He kept his voice low as they got into position for the game to start so the ref wouldn’t hear. His eyes trained on the ground, ready for the drop. He couldn’t force himself to look at Ilya in that moment.
“What.” Rozanov’s voice was low as he growled the word out.
Shane braved a glance upwards, hoping he wouldn’t see more disgust. While he did find it in Ilya’s eyes, it seemed to also be mixed with a twinge of sadness and pure, unadulterated anger. Ilya let out a harsh puff of breath.
Unsure of how Ilya felt about his confession, Shane went on, “Yeah it’s whatever man. Sorry, I shouldn’t have-“
“No. You don’t apologize. Motherfuckers.”
AU where Shane is slightly older than Ilya. Shane captains the metros while Ilya captains the centaurs. Shane tries to come out to his teammates and much to the horror of the centaurs, they do not take it well.
Aka Ilya decides it’s time for Shane to learn what it means to be loved and supported… romance shall ensueee

Summary
“It feels so strange. I’ve known you for eight years. I love you. No one alive knows me more than you do. But also. There’s so many things I’ve missed–things that I should know.”
Shane worries his lip for a moment, thinking. “What if…what if we just. Ask. Everything you can think of. Everything you want to know. We spend the last day we have just. Learning everything we possibly can. No question’s off limits. Will that feel better?”
Ilya nods, eyes closing as Shane kisses his forehead. “Yes, I think so.”
Or: Ilya realizes that for all of the years he and Shane have spent together, there's still plenty left to learn. As their last day at the Cottage before returning back to their respective cities, they get one full day of questions and answers to catch up on everything they’ve missed.
