    Summary

    “That’s wild, man. That is just weird.” Yannic paused. “You really think someone speaks Russian but is hiding it from you and just using it to do nice things for you?”

    “Well, that is the question. Why would anyone do that? Why not just say they speak Russian?” Rodion had been wondering this all morning.

    … … … …

    A side story wherein Shane accidentally reveals that he speaks Russian while still playing for Montreal, which results in a cat and mouse game with a minor leaguer.

    OC Rodion Tsetsov - Laval Arrows minor league center called up to replace a player.

    Summary

    Maybe if the video ended there, Shane thought, it would be okay. Okayish. Still incriminating. Still a fucking disaster. Still embarrassing, to have his breakup with this beautiful actress filmed and disseminated on Reddit of all fucking places, but not a nail in his coffin, burying him alive. But the video didn’t end there.

    “Can I ask if you’ve ever been with another guy?” she had to ask.

    And he, tears visible in his eyes, had to nod.

    Just once. Just a single nod.

    Why did he have to nod?

    “Have you ever told anyone that before?” He shook his head. “Was it different? With a guy?”

    “Of course.”

    Of course.

    “Was it better?”

    “Yes.”

    Summary

    Ilya looks over from the sofa as Jackie heads into the living room, perking up in interest. “You are calling Pike? Was good play today. You remembered how to score! Well done.”

    Hayden groans. "Rozanov? Dude, what are you doing in my fucking house?

    "It is girls' night," Ilya informs him primly. "I am one of girls."

    Or: Game day at the Pike house.

    Summary

    When she spoke, it was in a quiet whisper, as she caressed the planes of his chest through his shirt. “I think someone discovered the first afterglow in a moment a lot like this one.”

    He propped one of his knees up, framing her a little more protectively as he hummed in approval. “And you, Niima. When Eros laid eyes on you, he blushed.”

    She swatted at him, mostly playfully. “What’s that supposed to mean?” she asked.

    He raked a hand through his hair, laughing. “I mean, that if I hadn’t been so turned on, I’d have been tempted to tease you until you begged me to wash your mouth out with soap. And I’m not sure even that would be enough."
