Summary
“—Okay, that’s unusual,” the first commentator’s voice is saying over the footage. “Hm. Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that, thanks to some last-minute additions to the broadcast, we’ll be able to get an audio feed straight from the arena today!”
Ilya frowns. Who the fuck was stupid enough to get mic’d for this fucking game? Some idiot rookie from Toronto, probably. They really don’t teach kids how to handle anything these days.
“That’s right!” The second announcer pipes up with an annoyingly fake cheery voice. Ilya immediately wants to send a puck straight into his windpipe. “We just got confirmation that Captain Shane Hollander himself will be wearing a microphone during tonight’s game.”
Ilya sits up and spins to face the TV screen fast enough to give a lesser man whiplash.
Shane doesn’t get injured when Ilya comes back from Russia in 2017, so Ilya follows through on his plan to end things between them. A year later, despite being miserable, he still believes he did the right thing for both of them.
Except the Voyageurs have been acting weird around Hollander lately. And wait, what do you mean he’s mic’d for this game?

Summary
“Hollander?” Ilya’s voice cracked. His heart was hammering away at his ribcage, threatening to break free.
“I’m— I’m sorry,” Hollander croaked, Ilya could hear the tears in his voice. “I just want to hear your voice.”
“What’s going on?” Ilya started to register the other noises in the background, the noises he’d brushed off as typical city noise. It sounded like people were screaming.Or what if Shane ends up in a plane emergency after tuna melt gate

Summary
From this Tumblr post: https://www.tumblr.com/whitenoisefanfiction/822195613011787776/concept-yuna-hollander-is-actually-a-member-of?source=share There are no regularly scheduled updates, sorry! I'm not quite sure where this is going past the initial set up, so feel free to comment about direction. Tags to be updated as warranted. Thank you for reading!
Yuna Hollander was a member of the Japanese Imperial family until she went to college in Canada and fell in love with a hockey player. With her parents' blessing, she renounced her status as a princess and became an average Canadian citizen and produced a son who is known as Hockey Jesus. Visits by the Hollander family to Japan are extremely low-key and most people tend to forget that she's the daughter of the emperor.
Shane is a hot prospect for the MHL when his uncle, the Crown Prince, dies from pancreatic cancer. He doesn't even actually connect his relatives with the imperial family; he's so focused on hockey that almost everything else doesn't register and hasn't for a long time.
The problem is that there are no remaining male heirs to the throne in his mother's generation and his aunts only have daughters.
It's getting to be an issue.

Summary
"Never have I ever checked out my teammates in the locker room." Comeau said, looking directly at him.
Shane left his beer exactly where it was and met Comeau's gaze without saying a word, waiting for someone else to break the silence, because surely that had to have been a joke.
"Come on, Cap. It's no fun if you're just gonna lie." Drapeau let out with a quiet snort.
Shane frowned, genuinely confused. "What?"
"You really expect us to believe you've never taken a peek at us in the showers?"
⎯⎯⎯
Or, a game of Never Have I Ever with the Voyageurs turns ugly, it's a good thing Ilya is not too far way.

Summary
“You are in bathroom now having panic attack, calling your boyfriend because you just told journalist you are gay?”
“Fuck you, Ilya,” Shane scoffed.
“I am just making sure I understand the situation. Okay, okay, you just go out and say you misspoke. You meant to say that you are… gray.”
“I’m not a fucking paint sample.”
“Maybe you said that you pray?”
“I definitely did not say I pray. Also, I’m not religious.”
“You're not?”
“Ilya, can you fucking focus?”****
When Yuna books Shane a sit-down interview with GQ, she has no idea she's about to derail the carefully laid ten-year plan Shane and his secret boyfriend had only just begun to build. Shane never realized how exhausting the secret had become until it slipped out. Suddenly, telling the truth felt just a little more bearable than forcing himself back into hiding.This is a story about bravery. About being scared and doing it anyway. About being too exhausted to keep lying. About deciding which truths are finally safe to share, and which must still be protected while real danger remains.
