    Summary

    we don’t collectively talk enough about how good shane is at riding ilya

    -🏒-

    Ilya groans, head tipping back against the pillow. He can’t stop staring at the way Shane’s quads flex and release with every rise and fall.

    Shane starts slow, long, deliberate strokes, lifting high enough that Ilya almost slips free before sinking back down to the root. Each drop sends a jolt through Ilya’s spine. Shane’s hands stay braced on Ilya’s chest at first, fingers splayed, using the leverage to help control the rhythm.

    “You good, Rozanov?” Shane murmurs, voice rough.

    His lidded eyes are staring down at Ilya’s sex drunk face. He clenches on the next upstroke, deliberate, and Ilya’s hips snap up helplessly.

    “Ni khréna sebe…” Ilya curses in Russian under his breath.

    Summary

    For years, Ilya and Shane have kept what they are to each other carefully hidden. The stolen moments in hotel rooms and late-night phone calls. Rivals don’t love each other, everyone knows that.

    Then Shane hits the ice and Ilya has to decide how much he's willing to say out loud.

    He chooses to say everything. He just doesn't expect Shane to have been able to understand.

    In the aftermath, the secret is out to their teammates, to Shane's parents, to anyone paying attention. They are the MLH’s most recognised rivals, on opposite sides of one of the league's biggest divides and suddenly there’s nowhere left to hide. The question now isn't whether they love each other. It's whether they're brave enough to see what that looks like in the light, and whether the world around them is ready to let them find out.

    Summary

    “Hey, did you hear about Rozanov?”

    Shane’s head snaps up at the mention of the Boston captain, eyes locking with Hayden’s. His friend looks amused, motioning to his phone.

    “No, what about him?” Shane asks, trying to sound casual.

    “He got some girl’s name tattooed on his leg. Apparently he was out partying with his team after their win and got it done. An Instagram post is going viral about it.”

    or, Ilya gets a tattoo. Shane is very calm about it.

    Summary

    The nights were already cold and Berlin's streets were poorly lit, but Shane didn't mind. Berlin wasn't a pretty city; apartment blocks repeated themselves in washed-out mustard tones, aseptic blues and greens, off-putting reds. The windows of the newer buildings were so small he wondered if those rooms even got any light.

    Now that he thought about it, he could barely remember Hannover's architecture. He'd never paid attention. Hannover simply was.

    How many things in his life simply 'were'? When was the last time something had demanded his full attention?

    Or: Shane and Ilya meet in an erotic massage parlor in Berlin in 2012. They're both sex workers.

    Or: an exploration of desire as a world-building force.

    Summary

    Ilya let out a quiet laugh, shaking his head. “I want to be perfect for you, Shane. To make up for all the time we lost.”

    “I don’t want perfect,” Shane said quietly, stroking Ilya’s cheek. “I want something real. Something that we fight to make work, because we want it so much. Because being together is so much fucking better than being without each other.”

    ***

    Ten years ago, Shane and Ilya loved each other in secret and let each other go anyway.

    Now Shane, captain of the Ottawa Centaurs, is a single dad to four-year-old Ollie, and good at pretending he doesn’t think about the man he lost when they were younger and terrified of the fallout of being caught. Then one chance meeting turns into drinks, lingering looks, old feelings, and suddenly Ilya Rozanov is everywhere again.

    Some things, it turns out, never really leave you.

    As Shane and Ilya fall back into each other’s lives - and into something softer, steadier, and openly theirs this time — they realise maybe they’re finally ready for the life they used to dream about.

    Or: two hockey players who were each other’s first love reconnect ten years later and slowly build the family they always wanted.

    Summary

    Shane really isn't looking for a relationship, which is why having Ilya around is nice. No strings attached, only great sex. It's a win all around.

    The only problem is that Ilya is way, way too nice to Shane's stupid cat.

    Summary

    His outstretched glove hangs there, frozen, as the noise of the arena mutates into a ringing buzz. Then he’s moving, pushed away by Marlow, and then Boston’s goalie. There’s a flurry of movement, a trainer with a towel, more blood dripping onto the ice, and he just. Stands there. Staring.

    Ilya is helped off the ice. Shane doesn’t even tap his stick.

    Remember when Sidney Crosby caught a puck with his jaw? That doesn't happen to Shane. That happens to Ilya.

    Summary

    Ilya billets with the Hollanders as a teen, during which time he and Shane fall into an intense, obsessive, codependent unnegotiated d/s dynamic that continues to escalate years after they are both adults and no longer play on the same team. Special mentions also to denial, repression, pining-while-fucking, and being unbelievably horned up every single moment of the day.

    - Not a teen fic I promise! They start messing around as teens but are adults after chapter two.

    Shane Hollander and Troy Barrett have never really met.

    According to a deeply unqualified group of friends, teammates, and one extremely overconfident instigator, this is an opportunity.

    A group chat is created.

    This is a bad idea.

    Ilya and Harris are not happy.

    OR: The Metros, Centaurs, and Admirals hatch a plan to get Shane and Troy to hook up. And they're all idiots.

    OR OR: Scott Hunter is a chaos magnet.

    Summary

    As a straight man, Ilya Rozanov has never had a gay roommate before, but it’s going pretty well. Shane Hollander is kind, silly, and an even bigger hockey nut than Ilya.

    So when Shane starts bringing men over, and Ilya begins to want to bash their fucking heads in, Ilya comes to a startling conclusion: He must be homophobic.

    (He’s jealous.)

    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.

    ”The meds should kick in soon. They should be pretty mild, but if you feel nauseous, try and let me know before, not after. There’s a bucket here if you need it.”

    ”It’s kind of- fruity” said Rozanov, and Shane said, “yeah, people say that” instead of “so am I. Wanna taste?”

    And with that, the ambulance pulled away from the curb.

    Technically, Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander meet at a club. The gun shot wound is a bit of a mood-killer, but I'm sure they'll make it work.

    Anyway, Shane didn't remember exactly what was in the folder ... But he knew they were all good shots of him.

    He hastily clicked open the folder, his eyes barely glancing through the dozen or so shots there, vaguely registering a picture with a sunset background from his condo balcony, something of him laughing, a picture of him working at his laptop with his glasses on...

    The director called him again, and he shook his head, the photos blurring. Whatever. It would have to do.

    He clicked "select all," then the messages icon, then Rozanov's name. Hit send.
