    Summary

    The term, he’s told, is temporary retrograde amnesia. Ilya doesn’t need the direct translation to understand: he forgot things. Ten years of things.

    Summary

    “I’m putting in a transfer request to Carleton this afternoon.”

    Ilya gets off his bike and wraps his sweaty arms around Shane’s sweaty shoulders, presses their sweaty heads together and holds him tight. “Nooo, Hollander, you cannot leave me. Who will put Barrett and Marly in time out when they fuck up too many shots in a row?”

    “I’m sure Bood will do it. He loves bossing people around.”

    Bood stands up straight and salutes his captains. “I take the title with great honor. Enjoy the Ravens, Hollander—your legacy of being a chaste Victorian debutante will be remembered fondly but not carried on.”

    This snaps that last thread of Shane’s refined patience. “I can pick up girls! I have no problem getting numbers and calling them and talking!”

    Hazy smirks. “Innocent until proven guilty.”

    “I can pick people up,” Shane says again, moving off his bike and out of Ilya’s sweaty embrace. “And I don’t have to do it by concocting schemes or stripping on top of the LAX bros’ coffee table.”

    Or, after some team chirping at Shane's expense, Ilya accidentally interrupts a few of his potential dating prospects and then keeps on doing it less than accidentally

    Summary

    “Hollander,” Ilya greeted. He was leaning over the partition of Shane's desk with a lop-sided smile on his face.

    “Rozanov,” Shane said pointedly.

    “You sound upset.”

    “I’m not upset.”

    “It is too early in the morning for you to look like you want to kill me,” Ilya pointed out.

    “It’s never too early for that,” Shane threw back, unnecessarily shuffling some papers around on his desk. “Do you need something?”

    “A pen,” Ilya shrugged, not being able to stop the dumb smile forming on his face at Shane’s reaction.
