Summary
Two years into their run as teammates, the "First Couple of Hockey" has reached an internal collapse. Shane Hollander is spiraling into a dangerous obsession with bodily control, while Ilya Rozanov has succumbed to a deep, depressive episode. When their mutual resentment finally erupts into an on-ice altercation during practice, they are forced into a two-week suspension. Trapped together in the suffocating silence of their home, they must confront the physical and emotional wreckage of their marriage before they both completely fade away.
This story explores a much darker timeline for Shane and Ilya during their second year together in Ottawa. Please take the content warnings seriously, as this fic deals heavily with the physical and psychological toll of their high-profile relationship, including disordered eating, unmedicated depression, and a breakdown of their domestic safety. If you feel like any of these things might trigger you, please prioritize your peace and step away from this story. Your wellbeing is far more important than any narrative.
