    Summary

    ...the god may speak in the forms of geometry as well as in the shapes of dreams; in the harmony of pure thought as well as in the harmony of sounds; in numbers as well as in words.
    -- Ursula K. LeGuin

      Part I: The Absent World. The planet vanishes, but her people go on.
      Part II: An Archaeology of Loss. The world-death left a scar in spacetime, and a void in the heart of the Federation.
      Part III: Time and Darkness. In which Ambassador Spock fires unexpected shots.

    Summon the Future

    One man can change the present. -- James T. Kirk

    Appendix: Vulcan vocabulary


    I am interested in the lacunae of the destruction of Vulcan, and the shape of its future, post-Nero. This story does not explore all of my ideas about that, but it explores some of them. At one point I said to Beatrice, "am I secretly writing a post-apocalyptic story about utopia as praxis?"

    This series uses Kelvin/AOS style stardates.

    Summary

    After the tuna melt meltdown, Shane meets Rose Landry, has several deeply inconvenient revelations, and decides to do the only sensible thing: win Ilya back with sincerity, logistics, and a frankly alarming amount of emotional effort.

    Ilya, meanwhile, mistakes every tender gesture for the kind prelude to an inevitable goodbye.

    Or: Shane is living in a romcom. Ilya is living in a Russian tragedy.

    Summary

    It’s like they’re in a fucked up game of relationship chicken now, increasingly doing things together that Shane can’t describe as anything other than domestic and romantic and boyfriend-like. They text constantly, detailing their days and sharing everything from complaints about teammates to jokes about other players in the league to the kind of quiet worries about family that don’t need to be responded to, just heard by another person.

    Or maybe it’s like Schroedinger’s cat. As long as Shane doesn’t ask, doesn’t speak out loud, he can have this. It can exist, and it cannot exist at the same time as long as Shane doesn’t press too hard. Doesn’t want too much.

    It feels increasingly like agony now that he’s realized that he loves Ilya.

    ...

    Tunameltdown AU where Ilya makes him tuna melts and says his name and Shane doesn’t freak out and run away. Well, he does freak out, but he also stays. Or the one where Shane doesn’t realize that Ilya’s his boyfriend for a solid three months.

    Summary

    No matter how hard Shane tried, he could never erase the memories of the night that echoed in him every time they bent their heads over the puck, every handshake a shock to his system.

    So when the call came early last week that he had been flipped to Ottawa in exchange for a decent defenseman, one of their top prospects, and a handful of draft picks, of course the first thing he thought of was Ilya Rozanov.

    Not his family, not his hometown, not the exciting team they’re building. Shane only thought of eyes the color of the sea, his hand pulling on dark blond curls, and the sound of a Russian accent moaning his name that rang out in his mind more often than not when he jerked off.

    —————

    In June 2010, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov hook up for the first and last time.

    In July 2021, Shane Hollander is abruptly traded to the Ottawa Centaurs.
