Summary
Ilya Rozanov thinks it's probably best to decline the invitation to the 2017 All-Star Game. It's not swaggering, knothead alpha male bullshit; it's a survival strategy. He doesn't think it'll end well for anyone if he's forced into playing an instinct-driven, blood-pumping sport like ice hockey with Shane Hollander right now, not when Hollander is probably going to bring his new girlfriend to Tampa for the weekend.
But it's Hollander. It's Shane. So of course Ilya doesn't decline the stupid invitation. And of course the game goes sideways.
That doesn't mean it doesn't end well.

Summary
It’s been almost three years since the last time they played against each other. Not in an exhibition, not a ceremonial puck drop or a smiling photo op. A real game, with real skates and real hard contact. Shane could swear, right now, that if he closes his eyes he’d remember the crack of sticks, the echo of blades against ice, the roar of the crowd rising and falling like a living thing by its own right. He won’t even have to try hard. It’s always there in the back of his mind. The way Ilya skated across the rink, visor fogged slightly, mouthguard half out of his mouth in that familiar, infuriating way.
Three years is nothing in the grand scheme of things. Three years is also an eternity. Long enough for routines to change and for habits to calcify like bone. For absence to become a kind of presence all on its own.
--- In which Shane and Ilya break up in 2017, after Florida. It's 2029, and both have retired and put the game behind them. An invitation to a charity event sets things in motion. Or, another alternate take on what happens after Episode 4.

Summary
“We’re basically, like, mortal enemies. Total opposites.”
Maddy snorts loudly from her stool next to him, where she’s coming very close to fellating her paper straw.
Simon narrows his eyes at her. “What?”
“Oh, come off it. You champion underdog authors and like reading about people getting dicked down. He works for his rich family’s newspaper and regularly engages in flirty repartee with you on Twitter. It’s hardly the Montagues and the Capulets.”The one where they’re rival book critics (it’s definitely a thing) who argue (read: flirt) about soapy romance novels and pretentious literary fiction.
