Summary
Family is a sensitive subject- Ilya hardly ever talks about his brother or father, but once in a while he’ll mention his mother in passing. He’ll do it so casually it almost always takes Yuna aback to remember she’s not alive.
I get my sweet tooth from my mother.
Oh, I don’t know the name of the song. Just something my mother would hum while baking.
My mother loved poetry. She could recite her favorite poems by heart.
My mother would’ve loved your garden, Yuna.
Yuna began to think of Irina while she was working in her garden.
Did you see Ilya today? Him and Shane looked so handsome together.
Ilya made us laugh so hard today. I bet you were as quick witted as he is.
Ilya’s having a hard time right now, Irina. I’m doing what I can, we’re doing what we can. I wish I could call you and ask for advice.
He seems better. Does he talk to you? I hope so.
Irina, Mother’s Day is coming up. I have an idea.

Summary
I woke up with an idea for a fic of Ilya in The Family Man (the 2000 movie with Nic Cage,) then immediately nixed it because it’d be incredibly short with no tension because Ilya would be like hell yeah no further questions, your honor.
Then I decided to write it anyway because you know what, we all deserve a little sweet treat.

Summary
“Hayden,” Jackie began gently. “I need you to see past the Rozanov you thought you knew. I need you to see where this is going- where this really looks like it’s going. They’re in love. If they get married- if they have a family- don’t you want to be around for that? Don’t you want to be Uncle Hayden to their kids? Or do you want to keep sniping at Ilya until Shane’s had enough and doesn’t invite you over anymore?”
(She doesn’t say invite “us” over, because she knows that Shane would definitely still invite Jackie over, and she would go without Hayden, with absolutely no qualms about it.)
Hayden shuts his eyes and there’s a clear picture already there.
Their four kids, a little older, running around, followed by a curly headed toddler on unsteady chubby legs. Maybe Shane holding a mini him, a baby with tufts of straight black hair sticking out everywhere. Okay. Yeah. He wants to be there for that. For his best friend. He wants whatever Shane wants.

Summary
“When you’re with her,” Ilya continues, voice rough and breathless, “and she does fuck all for you no matter how hard you close your eyes, do you try to angle your hand so she brushes up on the scar? Do you do everything you can to remember it exists? Am I there with you, Hollander? Always?”
Shane wants to touch him—so he does the only thing he’s allowed to do.
He throws the first punch.
Or: After Shane and Ilya's first on-ice fight sends the media into a frenzy, the league forces them to date to control the narrative.

7.5/10 Medium dick but he ate my ass like he was starving for it---
Shane and Ilya call it quits after the All-Stars game when Ilya says they can't be anything. He says no one will fuck Shane like he can, and Shane takes that personally, starting a two year cycle of sending each other ratings of the other people they fuck

What Remains (Major Editing) by RimsHiddenQuill

Summary
Shane Hollander disappears in the middle of an ordinary week.
What follows fractures everything: the search, the media storm, the slow collapse of certainty, and the horrifying realisation that survival is not always loud. Sometimes it looks like silence. Sometimes it looks like endurance mistaken for consent.
While Ilya Rozanov tears through every lead trying to find him, Shane is trapped inside a house where cruelty wears the shape of care, and where the most dangerous thing of all is how easy it becomes to doubt himself.
A story about captivity, aftermath, love, shame, survival, and what remains of a person after someone tries to rewrite them.
Or: A break-in leaves Shane Hollander terrified of the world outside his door — and vulnerable to the kind of danger that doesn’t look dangerous until it’s far too late.

Summary
Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, “I like both. Is secret, okay?”
“Okay,” Hollander says, voice cracking.
He doesn’t say anything else. The air’s so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; it’s the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves men’s bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.
A year after mysteriously dropping out of the 2009 draft, Shane Hollander is signed by the Boston Raiders, right behind Ilya Rozanov. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston — but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.
