    Summary

    Zarina was standing stock still at the opened door, half tucked behind it as she stared up at the figure on their doorstep. She turned, her little face scrunched in confusion as she watched her father approach.

    “Papa,” She chirped in Russian as he scooped her up, nestling her onto his hip as she pointed a glitter-speckled hand up and out the door, “He says his name is Uncle Alexei.”

    Ilya felt the blood freeze in his veins.

    Slowly, so slowly he felt the world turn and age around him, Ilya let his eyes wander from his daughter’s perfect face to the man casting a shadow over his threshold.

    Summary

    The 2026 Winter Olympics mark the first Games since Sochi to welcome NHL players back to the world stage, and the first where Ilya Rozanov will wear the maple leaf for Team Canada instead of the Russian crest he grew up with.

    Now captain of the Ottawa Centaurs and married to Shane Hollander, Ilya has built a life defined by love, safety, and belonging in the country that finally let him be himself. As the Olympic season begins and the world watches his historic switch, pride and grief collide in ways he never expected.

    Because sometimes loving where you are does not mean you stop missing where you came from.

    Summary

    Harris hadn’t meant to say anything. He hadn’t even realized what he’d said, honestly, until Ilya’s reaction: choking on his beer, eyes bugging out, looking more nervous than Harris had ever seen him look.

    Why couldn’t he have just kept his mouth shut? He was tipsy, and probably a bit too comfortable, but still. He should have known better. He felt like the biggest asshole alive.

    Hold on. Rewind. Start from the beginning.

    Or:

    Five times Ilya Rozanov set off Harris Drover's gaydar (and Harris said nothing), + one time Harris completely put his foot in it

    Summary

    Alexis: Considering how he throws Hollander around on the ice, I’m worried about you girl 😂

    Jane: Oh, he does love to throw me around.

    Jane: Haha.

    Or,
    Ilya’s decision to fuck with Shane backfires spectacularly. And Shane gets a support system along the way.
