    Summary

    When Eddie left for Texas, he knew he’d be leaving so many things behind. His friends, his mentor, his house, and most importantly, the man he loved. But he needed to work to get his son back. And if that meant leaving his own world partly behind, then so be it.

    He never expected to be left in the dark after he got into an argument with Buck. He regrets what he said to him, but by the time he finds the courage to apologize, it might be too late, and the last words Buck would ever hear from Eddie were ones he didn't mean.

    Summary

    After the Tuna Melt Incident, Shane and Ilya gradually started drifting apart. Texts became more scarce, hook-ups less frequent and feelings pushed aside until, in the moment of absolute panic, Shane ghosted Ilya fully.

    Now, three years later, Shane Hollander and Rose Landry are engaged. Shane's life finally seems to be going in the right direction. No distractions, great girl, lots of hockey.

    And then the new season starts and trades between teams happen.
    And Ilya Rozanov, whom Shane promised himself to forget, is suddenly on the same team.
    And, worst of all, he becomes the Alternate Captain.

    Summary

    When a petty morning argument is the last thing Ilya says to Shane before he boards the Montreal Metros’ team plane, he thinks the worst consequence will be a bruised ego and an awkward apology.

    Instead, the aircraft declares an emergency.

    As social media explodes, the hockey world halts, and Shane’s Instagram messages turn from apologies to goodbyes, Ilya is forced to confront the one truth he’s been hiding longer than his feelings:

    Shane Hollander is his. And he may have just lost him.

    A mixed-media, Long Game–era angst spiral featuring breaking news alerts, trending fan edits, locker room confessions, and the most devastating Instagram DM thread you will ever read.

    Summary

    He basically fled LA to escape the blazing fires and the haunting memories that always come with them. And where did they send him to? The fucking desert. There is no escaping the heat. It’s like Buck is burning from within—not just because he’s sweating buckets, but because he’s hurting.
    All his grief and anguish, all his feelings—everything he so carfeully supressed—it’s seething and blazing right beneath the surface. That’s why he had to go. He couldn’t deal with any of it. So he did the next logical thing, what anyone would do in his situation. He asked his former commander to be reactivated from reserve into active duty.
    He went back to the SEALs.

    OR: Buck doesn’t handle Bobby’s death very well. So he leaves the 118 to become an active SEAL again and only Maddie knows about it. But the truth always comes out eventually. How will his family react when they finally find out?

    Summary

    When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
    ____

    Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.

    “Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”

    “Mom,” Shane managed.

    “Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”

    Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

    Summary

    "Yeah, well, we have—moved on." Eddie's expression didn’t soften. "You should too, Buck."

    He deflated, the fight draining out of him. For the first time since they met, Buck felt like he was staring at a stranger.

    “Uh— yeah I get it,” he finally said. “And I really am sorry.”

    He watched as Eddie's figure retreated.

    If Buck had stayed quiet, maybe he could have kept pretending that time would heal this wound. After that disaster of a conversation, Buck wasn't sure it ever would.

    He stood there, windows forgotten, feeling something he’d known his whole life shift into place.

    Buck never thought Eddie would be the one to show him he was right.
