    Summary

    «A safe space, somewhere he could breathe. I know things didn’t end well between the two of you - but did they actually end at all? I’m not supposed to tell you this - I know I’m not - but he asked me to, so… I’m just trying so hard to be a good friend: when they asked him what he’d miss the most, he said ginger ale. Hollander - Shane, I have never seen my man Roz drink a ginger ale.»

    The room spins around him at full speed and Shane needs to hold on to the kitchen counter not to fall flat on his face.

    “That better just be ginger ale, rook.”
    “There’s ginger ale in the fridge.”
    “Ginger ale cold enough?”

    Fuck, Rozanov.

    or: Shane comes out to Ilya in Tampa, but terrified of what loving him would mean, Ilya walks away.
    After Grigori Rozanov’s death, the loneliness Ilya has carried his whole life becomes too heavy to survive alone. Months later, he attempts suicide.
    While hiding away at his cottage in Québec, Shane receives a phone call from Hayden Pike.
    This story begins eight minutes later.

    Shane.

    The only person who makes every scary moment better.

    Another bang. A crack. A weird huff of air sensation, feeling like something was blowing out. The plane, Ilya thought, dropping slowly, uncontrollably, falling out of the sky.

    “What the fuck?” The familiar voice of Wyatt Hayes, coming from the row in front of Ilya, tinges of fear and confusion. “Are we falling out of the fucking sky?”

     

    OR, the centaurs’ plane does crash.

    Summary

    “Oh shit.”

    Shane looked up, turned his head to where J.J. was sat across the aisle. The blue glow of his phone lit up the too-wide whites of his eyes staring down intently at whatever was on his screen. Shane’s stomach lurched again, anticipating a sudden stop his body hadn’t quite caught up to yet.

    “The Centaurs’ plane crashed in Tampa.”

    There was a moment where everything was still moving, where Shane and the world were still spinning at the same speed they both always had, and then it all came crashing down. Shane wasn’t sure whether it was him that had stopped, or the world around him, but either way, in a matter of seconds the distance between himself and the bus he had only a moment ago been sitting in became staggeringly, dizzyingly vast.

     

    The Centaur's emergency landing plays out a little bit worse, and Shane is left with the harsh reality of the cost of loving Ilya in secret.

    Summary

    It's 2023.
    Ottawa has a real chance at the cup again this year.
    First win could've been luck but a second one in a row would cement their reputation.
    And if these few remaining games go right, they will be looking at back-to-back wins.
    Shane might be the first player in MHL history who has consecutive wins in two different teams.
    He will never do anything to jeopardize that opportunity.
    But his body. Something's happening... Not to mention his temper.
    It can probably wait until after they get the cup though.
    Probably.

    Or, it’s Shane’s second season with the Centaurs and he’s getting that cup, no matter what his body’s screaming at him. Ilya’s more stressed about it than he is. They get the cup and a pretty amazing souvenir out of it by the end of the season though.

    Set in a universe where everyone can get pregnant. Men just have a harder time being carriers. It usually takes a while for them and is normally done on purpose. Hollanov is really just that “casually beats the odds” couple.

    Summary

    Wyatt’s gaze flicked from Hollander to Rozanov – who looked absolutely delighted with this turn of events – and back again. “You two follow playoff traditions as well then?”

    Hollander shrugged, still catastrophically casual, “I mean, when we played on different teams we sort of had to. Conflict of interests and all that. But I meant more generally. You know what it’s like, right?”

    Wyatt wasn’t sure that he did, and was suddenly very conscious of the fact that he might not be in the least bit emotionally prepared for whatever was about to come out of Hollander’s mouth.

    “Like, the other day,” Hollander continued, seemingly unaware of the proverbial bombshell he was about to drop. “Ilya tied me up and edged me for…was it two hours?”

    “Three, moyo solnyshko,” Rozanov corrected, sounding like Christmas, his birthday, and the Easter Bunny had all come at once.

    Shane Hollander joins the Centaurs, and the team discovers that their Captain might be a certified menace, but his husband is so, so much worse.

    OR: five times Shane accidentally terrorizes the Centaurs locker room, and one time he chooses to hold back.
