Summary
Nicky closes the door behind him. He can't help giving her a wider berth than necessary as he walks past the coffee table to the opposing armchair, and if he were less tense he would have hysterics at how he is circling around this truly tiny woman as if she is a physical threat. He sits, posture straight and centered. The therapist sits down as well, and crosses her legs.
"How should we start?" he asks.

Summary
"So, are you guys dating?" Nile asks during their lunch break. They are at the Indian buffet, and Nicky is telling Nile about a thrift store he and Joe went to that he thinks she would like. It takes a him a minute to parse the question. "Well, you keep mentioning him and smiling," she adds when he doesn't say anything. "And you haven't been seeing anyone for a while, so I just wondered if that was why."
"No, not at all," Nicky says. "We're friends, and he lives nearby, that's all."

Summary
"Please," Nicky whispers again. It is prayer and devotion. Sprawled loose for his love, Nicky is worshipful and worshipped. "Please."
"I know, my heart," Joe replies, just as reverent. "You are doing so well for me."

"Did we break him?" Nile finally shouts in Andy's direction.
"Like I said - now you've done it," Andy replies.
"Is Nicky a sloppy drunk?" she asks, incredulous with laughter. "I can't believe this is happening."
"It's the Catholicism," Andy says.

Summary
JJ didn't think the others saw it. Hayden, maybe, but Jackie was the only WAGs's name Shane had committed to memory so Hayden never brought it up. JJ didn't have a wife or girlfriend. He had his hookups and the names of the best restaurants in each city they player in. If JJ had a dog, Shane would probably mix its name up with Drapeau's. The others didn't get that however pathetic or sad they might think Shane, Shane thought the same of them tenfold when they missed shots at practice or ate fast food on weekdays. Shane wasn't being prissy or funny when he said, don't embarass me—JJ still doesn't know exactly what it was, but he doesn't care to find out.
Shane had poured everything into his team (possessively: it was his team) and he asked them to give it back that day, so they delivered. When Shane smiled at them afterwards, it felt like love.
Character study on neurotic batshit hardass Captain Shane Hollander. The awe-inspiring and aloof Canadian Hockey Jesus Shane Hollander. Unwilling MHL sex icon Shane Hollander, the face on many mens' dart boards.
or, JJ on the enigma of (his feelings for) Shane Hollander over the years.

Summary
Shane’s heart drops into his stomach. “Ilya,” he breathes. His vision goes blurry, throat tight. He tries to swallow it down and focus, shove his swirling thoughts into a neat little box, but it’s impossible. He feels—he might throw up, actually. “Are you seriously telling me you tried to fucking kill yourself?”
“Yes,” Ilya agrees blandly, “It did not work.”
Ilya calls Shane from the hospital. Shane handles it very normally.

Summary
"Rozy," Brian, the team doctor says, "talk to me, buddy. That puck clipped you pretty good, how’s the pain?"
Ilya blinks. He clenches his jaw against a wave of nausea. He rests his cheek on the ice, and the cold helps a little.
"Bad. Very bad." He swallows. "Is Shane here?"

Summary
Ilya chuckles. “You don’t know why the team might be scared of you? You cannot think of any reason?”
“Scared? Of me?” Shane says.
“Yes. They adore you. But they are terrified.”
“But – but why? What did I do?”
Ilya pretends to think. “Hmm. What did you do? Maybe it was the first Stanley Cup. Or the second. Or the third. Or your MVP wins. Or every single fucking game you have ever played in your life. You are Shane fucking Hollander. Did you forget?”
---
Or, five times Shane scares the Centaurs, and one time he (accidentally) terrifies them.
