    Summary

    And so Shane steps into the Voyageurs' locker room, Luca on his heels, leaving the door open just a crack so Ilya and the others can hear what's going on.

    The room goes quiet immediately, all faces turning to Shane in shock.

    Hayden's the first to react, scrambling up from his stall, eyes wide. "Shane? What's going on?"

    "I just wanted to see if any of you were willing to talk? So quiet on the ice today. I thought you'd have things to say to me, all things considered." Shane sweeps his gaze over his former team, uses his disappointed-Captain-voice and feels a smidge of smugness when it clearly hits them as it always has. "So say them to my fucking face, not behind my back."

    ---

    Shane needs to clear the air with the Montreal Voyageurs. Post-Book 6: The Long Game.

    Summary

    What if Cliff Marlow, after Ilya came back from visiting Shane in the hospital, put his detective cap on and sleuthed out more than Ilya was prepared for?

    Perhaps Ilya, in bed with Shane at his cottage months later, finally shares this detail with him. Which perhaps encourages other unspoken details to be shared, and some fantasizing about who else they would like to tell. On purpose.

    Perhaps the late night fantasizing snowballs into an actual plan. A labour day weekend party where they surprise everyone that matters to them (Marlow is also invited). For better and for worse.

    Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps…

    Summary

    “Ilya, what are we gonna do?” Shane says.

    Ilya finishes whatever he has been doing on his phone, and tosses it gently to the bed beside him. He crosses the room to Shane, stands in front of him, squeezes into his shoulders with his big hands, rubbing them like he means to warm them up.

    “Looks like we will have a little vacation,” he says, with a big obnoxious grin.

     


     

    Boston and Montreal are sent to Paris to play against each other in an exhibition series in January 2017. Ilya and Shane decide to stay in Paris for one more night. Just one more night, so they can talk. Maybe finally understand each other.

    They aren't expecting a volcano to erupt in Iceland and close all the airspace in Europe, leaving them stranded there. Together.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov, a professional dom, lives in the space between. Between shifts, between countries, between versions of himself. Control is what keeps things from falling apart. Control, and distance.

    Shane Hollander lives the life that might have been his. He spends his NLH career closing distance, closing gaps, moving toward things instead of away from them.

    When a chance meeting at the animal shelter crosses their paths, something unexpected carries between them, like a call, waiting to be answered.

     

    *This work is a remix/ heavily inspired by Wolfbird (OpalApparition), including people and locations. In my mind, a “what could have happened if they met in a different way and made different choices.” It’s sweet, has (mostly/eventual) soft landings, and features many puppies who absolutely did not ask to be a part of this, and one very dramatic chiweenie who did. 

    Thank you to OpalApparition for the encouragement to write what I love.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is a junior at McGill University, he is smart, he has friends, he had a loving family and everything a young man could ever dream of. Except Shane Hollander is a virgin and he is sick of that, so his friend Rose takes matters into her own hands and indirectly introduces him to Ilya Rozanov, a student that was transfered from Russia and is currently in danger of failing his English exam.

    Now clearly, exchanging English knowledge for sex experience sounds like a good deal, right?

    Summary

    What if Shane Hollander got on his knees in a dirty club bathroom in LA, and got more than an orgasm out of it? What if he also made a friend who helped him stand up for himself?
    What if Ilya Rozanov had his very own pet dinosaur?
    What if Scott and Kip met differently?
    What if the queer NHL hockey players found each other sooner, and had each other's backs?
    What if they didn't have to navigate self-discovery, queer love, and homophobia on their own, and what if they all got to come out on their own terms?
    ___
    A funny, sweet, and (briefly!) angsty story about unexpected connections and the power of queer friendship. Told through characters' POVs and text history.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is a straight man. So what if he can't get hard every time he tries to have sex with a woman? So what if he drinks himself silly just so he has an excuse to sneak into his captains bedroom?

    He was straight.

    Right?

    Or

    Shane Hollander is convinced he's straight, Ilya Rozanov convinces him otherwise.

    Summary

    [Post TLG - Ilya and Shane both play for the Ottawa Centaurs]

    This time it's Ilya down on the ice.
    Shane's world shrinks down to his unconscious husband; nothing else matters.

    Shane must support Ilya through recovery and deal with the consequences of leaving the match without permission. They must both deal with some restrictions on sex as Ilya recovers, but they take every opportunity to find possible outlets as he improves.

    The extended recovery period impacts Ilya's mental health, and he has to face his own worth without hockey.

    Summary

    "Rose-colored glasses" is an idiom describing an overly optimistic, positive, or unrealistic view of life, where someone ignores negative aspects and focuses only on the good.

     

    Rose Landry, famous, gorgeous movie star is maybe-dating all star, all-Canadian golden boy hockey Captain, Shane Hollander.

    One night, after several months of high-school-level dating, Rose lures Shane to Ciel Nightclub for a post-game celebration in hopes to finally seal the deal.

    But things don't quite go as planned, and what ends up happening spirals Rose into a realization neither her or her maybe-boyfriend, Shane, saw coming.

    Summary

    Cliff Marlow isn’t gay.
    It’s a fact that he’s calm, confident and unbothered by.

    He’s been hooking up with Ilya Rozanov on and off for a while now, but that doesn’t count.

    Rozanov just plays better after he’s been laid.
    And the team always plays better when Roz is playing well.

    It was really as simple as that.

    Summary

    Cliff Marlow isn't gay. He just has a running superstition that in order to win, Ilya Rozanov needs to climax before a game.
    Ilya getting horrifically dumped by Montreal Jane doesn't fit neatly into that system, but Marlow isn't afraid to improvise.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander was doing fine. He was about to start his fourth year at Concordia University in Montreal, where he was now Captain of the Stingers, he had a solid group of friends who actually knew he was gay and were cool about it, and this time next year he would be playing for the Metros.

    He was doing great, really.

    Or he had been, until none other than Ilya Rozanov, the 28 year old KHL player who had recently disapeared from the world of hockey, became his professor and mentor.

    or: Coach Theriault inadvertently sets up professor-Ilya and student/hockey captain-Shane.

    Summary

    Someone somewhere said any two people on earth can be linked with only 6 degrees of separation. Shane played this game in his head sometimes. He would make up maps of these links, just for the exercise of it. What he didn't do was map his connection to Ilya Rozanov, who had yet to walk into his life and crash down all 6 degrees of separation in one reckless fell swoop. Shane didn't know it, but he was already 6 degrees away from Ilya Rozanov. Because Shane was driving to Montreal, and Montreal was where a modeling agency he didn't know the name of was based. And that modeling agency recently put an ad out for a new campaign. That ad was seen by a girl named Svetlana who had curly hair and a quick, smart tongue. And that girl had called her best friend, Ilya Rozanov, and said, “There's work for you in Montreal, if you're good enough.” And Ilya Rozanov had been good enough, and was finally, finally getting out of Moscow after 19 miserable years. And those 6 degrees of separation would soon be just 1, because Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander would be existing in the same city without either knowing the other one existed.

    Summary

    One delayed flight. One closing airport bar. One truth or dare game that gets significantly out of hand.
    Ilya Rozanov came to his ex-girlfriend's wedding to prove he was over it. Shane Hollander came to his best friend's wedding to prove he was fine. They were both lying, but they didn't know that about each other yet.

    Then they had to share a room.

    Summary

    Rather than give him the joint, Ilya takes it back between his own lips and sucks in a deep breath, the tip glowing as he does so. Then, before Shane can process it, he’s reaching up and sliding one large hand around the back of Shane’s neck, pulling him down so their lips meet.

    Shane gasps softly, and Ilya takes the opportunity to blow smoke into his open and waiting mouth.

    Oh, God. Are you there? It’s me, Shane Hollander. We’ve had our differences, but I think I’d like to convert for real this time. I’m ready. Open the pearly white gates. I’m coming up.

    Shane goes to a house party, gets high, then gets on his knees. bon appetite

    Summary

    No serious hockey fan or sports commentator worth their salt would have considered record-breaking Boston superstar Ilya Rozanov to be Shane Hollander’s rival exactly, but sleeping with a man who had a specific offense-related vendetta against him and a wrist shot like a jet engine to back it up was probably ill-advised just the same.

    Or, Shane is a goalie. Ilya can’t score.

    Summary

    "Look at my sweet boys," Ilya purred. "So good to each other, and so good for me. Both plugs still in place?"

    But he didn't wait for an answer. A hand landed on both Luca's and Shane's silk-clad skin, fingers pressing on the end of the plugs, checking their position. He wasn't rough exactly, but his touch wasn't gentle either, and Luca forced himself to stay still as Ilya explored them with his hands.

    Luca really wanted to push back, lean into his captain’s touch, force the plug further inside. Maybe it would nudge against his prostate and then— no. No, as hard as it was, and as hard as he was, he was going to be good and stay still for Ilya.

    OR

    Luca learns from Ilya how to take care of Shane, and then in return, gets taken care of himself.
