    Summary

    A world without marriage or sexuality labels, everyone is just waiting to shake hands with their soulmate. I put the canon in a blender and added a little recognition from elfquest. (Soul meets soul, when skin meets skin)
    ---------------
    Then Rozanov leaned in and Shane felt his breath catch in his throat. They weren't touching but the proximity alone was enough to make Shane's whole nervous system sizzle.

    “Can’t you feel it?” Rozanov whispered, his voice rough with desire.

    “No,” Shane lied.

    “I ache to touch you,” Rozanov almost moaned. His voice was so soft and full of need. Shane could feel his own body respond to it. He knew exactly how Rozanov felt.

    But he didn’t want to feel this way about this man. It should have been someone else. Anyone else.

    “We are nothing,” Shane said. “Go away, Rozanov.” And then he got into his car and drove away. He didn’t look in the rear view mirror as he left because he did not want to see the look on Rozanov’s face.

    Summary

    Everyone knew that love could heal. With just a kiss to the cheek or forehead, it could heal papercuts and little scrapes. And there were rules, of course. It could only be healed by a kiss, the press of lips to skin of the injured person. The more kisses shared between two people, the more potent the magic became. The love had to be mutual and genuine. The intensity of love altered what one was capable of healing. Stronger love could heal wounds that were deeper, concussions and diseases and gashes large enough to need stitches. Nothing much bigger, though.

    Unless you were soulmates.

    Soulmates were supposed to create such a bond that they could heal anything that afflicted their soulmate. The love between soulmates still had to be there, but the magic was more potent. The stronger the bond between soulmates, the more they could heal. There were even a handful of cases where a person had brought their soulmate back from the dead. A love so pure, so strong, so genuine, that it reached beyond death, that it pushed air into lungs and restarted a heart. All healed with a true love’s kiss.

    These were just stories, though. And, besides, soulmates didn’t exist anymore.

    Summary

    Ilya Rosanov cares too much. He forms a soul bond with Shane Hollander: a bond he knows must be one-sided, since Hollander would never love him back. So, he does what he knows is best, and tries to stay away from the man. No matter how much it hurts.

    Staying away is easier said than done, though. Especiallly when Hollander is on the news for his terrible hockey playing. Especially when Boston have a game against Montreal, and Ilya sees Shane struggling himself.

    Ilya is selfish. Even so, he can't stay away from Hollander, not when he's hurting. He'll fix things, no matter how painful it is to get close to Shane, knowing that Shane could never love him back.

    Summary

    It was during this hysterical lament that Ilya realized what was wrong, what was off. The initial softness, the confusion, the vulnerability. It was out of character — Shane was so often in control of himself, of what he said, even when emotions were high . . . with one exception.

    If Ilya fucked him particularly . . . intensely, if he got Shane feeling a lot, he'd get soft afterwards. Quiet, a little ditzy, emotional. The first time it'd happened — or the first time he'd recognized it — was years ago in Las Vegas after winning MVP. He remembered the look on Hollander's face when he left — wide and teary-eyed, lip trembling, tripping over himself.

    Since then, with a little trial and error, Ilya had learned how to manage it. Had grown to love it. If he treated him right, he could buff away all of Shane's sharp edges and be left with the soft, gooey inside. Floating and tethering himself to Ilya.

    Now, Shane was out there, floating, without anyone to tether himself to. Falling. And suddenly Ilya was panicking, too.

    or: shane, trying to get over rozanov, has sex with someone else and and falls into subdrop. scared and confused, he calls ilya.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander starts a job as an Equipment Manager at one of the best hockey teams on the United States, the Boston Bears. What should have been a normal, boring job after his career ending accident, turns out to be a migraine inducing, all because of a boundary stomping captain. And his inability to maintain them when it comes to him.

    Summary

    The ice made sense. His blades cut through clear glass and chipped snow. Warm ups calmed him enough that he didn't even freak out when Rozanov approached him.

    “Strange," he said as he made lazy circles around where Shane was stretching out his thighs.

    After a beat, he knew Rozanov was waiting for him to take the conversational bait. “What's strange?"

    “We have never been on the same side of the blue line before."

    He was bracing for a chirp, so this plain statement threw him off. "Yeah, I guess.”

    "Do you think they know?”

    "That we're on the same team?”

    "That we're going to destroy them.” Rozanov stalled his restless circles to lock eyes with Shane, and the whole arena fell away. "You and me, we will be incredible.”

     

    Or, Shane and Ilya are not soulmates, they just have really, really good sex.

    Summary

    The story is the one you know. Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are the two best hockey players in the league. On the ice, they’re fierce rivals. Off the ice, they share a bed, share secrets, share their hearts.

    But in a world where soulmates exist, where at a young age you form a mental connection with the one who was made for you, what happens when the lines between what’s in your head and what’s in front of you begin to blur? When Ilya is desperate for the man that he talks to every day who is both blunt and shy? When Shane is searching for the man whose voice matches the low, accented one in his head?

    What happens when you fall in love with the same man twice, and you don’t even realize it?

    AKA the Hollanov “you share a telepathic connection with your soulmate” AU of my dreams

    Summary

    Ilya’s heart shattered. Tears sprang to his eyes, and he buried his face in Shane's neck to hide them, kissing him and whispering how much he loved him as Shane whined and begged and whimpered for something he couldn’t give him. It lasted for hours, no matter how hard Ilya fucked him or how many times he used the knotting toy. Shane was delirious, could not seem to comprehend that Ilya was a Beta, no matter how many times he reminded him, apologized to him, begged him with his eyes to please stop. When Shane finally passed out, Ilya sat up staring at the wall for hours.

    He’d finally figured it out, the one thing he could never give Shane, no matter how much he tried. There was no substitute, no toy that could compare. Ilya was lacking, and Shane knew it now, would come to his senses and realize Ilya couldn’t give him what he really needed. For the first time since his childhood, Ilya thought about dying. Not killing himself, never that, but maybe somehow going to sleep and not waking up.

    Or, Beta Ilya Rozanov loves Omega Shane Hollander so much it hurts. A hit on the ice changes everything between them, but not the one thing that matters.

    Summary

    At seven years old, Shane and Ilya swapped bodies for fifteen minutes, just enough time to change everything. That first swap, and all the ones that followed, marked the beginning of the most epic love story the hockey world has ever seen.

    Summary

    Did you figure anything out? Shane writes, and flips the page around for Ilya to read it.

    Wont like the answer, Ilya’s written, in his quick hand.

    So he doesn’t have to take the pen back, Shane just shrugs. What?

    Ilya sits down at the desk for a steady surface to explain.

    3 things
    1 its curse. if true we can break it
    2 its spell. if true we can break it
    3 we are soulmates. if true we are fucked

    “No,” Shane mutters, before he can stop himself. Immediately, he slams a hand over his mouth.

    or: Ilya and Shane are soulmates, and their bond prevents them from both talking and being apart. Unfortunately, the only thing that’ll make the pain stop is confessing the one thing they can say: that they’re in love.

    Summary

    They found 2 seats next to each other in the lecture hall, three rows from the front. “I don’t know why you insist on sitting so close.” Rose teased, pulling out her laptop from her backpack.

    “Some of us have poor eye-sight, Rose.” Shane teased back, struggling to get his laptop out. He finally got his laptop out, opened up and typed his password in when he heard a familiar voice.

    “Hello class, sorry I’m late. I’m Mr. Rozanov and I’ll be teaching you Russian Culture through Cinema.” Ilya finished unloading the stacks of paper on a table near the teaching podium. He stumbled slightly when he looked up and locked eyes with Shane who was having a very difficult time keeping a straight face.

    Summary

    "Tell me Mr. Hollander...did you touch yourself after seeing me work out?"
    Shane froze. The words hit like a jolt straight to his core. His face flamed hotter than it had ever been. His whole brain felt like it hit an ice block and couldn't move.
    "I-I... no.." Shane said weakly.
    "No?" Ilya asked, cocking one eyebrow up.
    "I've never...really...done it...I don't do that stuff..." he admitted, voice barely above a whisper.
