    Summary

    It was a Friday when the video dropped.

    “What is happening?” He asked St Simon, who was holding his phone tight to his chest, his expression odd. “Someone has died?” 

    Across the room he could see Marlow moving slowly upright from where he had been doing floor stretches, his phone in his hand as well, his face pinched. 

    “It’s Hollander,” St Simon said. 

    The bottom of Ilya’s stomach fell out, closely followed by the rest of Ilya’s organs. His chest hurt so acutely that he thought he must be having a heart attack. 

    “Not dead,” St Simon added quickly, reaching out to grab Ilya’s shoulder when Ilya’s knees actually buckled. “Jesus, sorry. I should have - no it’s just -” 

    “Someone tell me what the fuck is going on,” Ilya snapped, “and everyone else shut up.” 

    Marlow reached him now, held his phone out to Ilya, open already to an article with a headline huge enough Ilya could easily make out the HOLLANDER blaring out of it even before his eyes focused and he took the phone from Marlow. 

    A video is posted online, for Shane it feels like a death sentence. For some parts of him, it is.

    💜 I liked this version of S&I very much, also loved Marleau, and him being such a supportive teddy bear. and liked Pike. I wish it was longer and had explored some topics that were just barely touched.

    Summary

    After Tampa, Ilya is excited to see Shane again. Only in the locker room before the game, the news breaks that Shane isn't playing. And even worse, he's at the hospital.

    Original Threads fic idea post:

    "Hollander is what?"

    "He's out, Roz."

    "What?"

    "He's not playing tonight."

    "That's not possible."

    "Well, it's happening."

    Lily: you are not playing?

    Lily: are you ok?

    Lily: Hollander?

    Lily: Shane, please.

    "Roz... He's in the hospital."

    Very sweet AU - no crash on ice but a car crash involved instead.
    I would love to see this AU Shane taking care of Ilya afterwards after some sort of incident as well and the level of frustration that would likely cause Ilya, unused to being taken care of and prioritised as he is 😏

    Summary

    Yuna's breath caught. "What did you say, baby?"

    "Please." Shane's forehead was still pressed to his knee. "Please, please, please—"

    Hayden shifted closer. "Please what? Tell me what you need, Shane.”

    Then, so faint that all three of them had to lean in just to catch it. "...I need him.”

    Yuna's hand found David's. "Who, sweetheart? Who do you need?"

    “Ilya."

     

    Or: It's been a month since the tuna melts. Shane's been getting closer to breaking every day, until he finally does, in front of his parents and the Pikes. In the middle of the panic, he blurts out the only thing he needs: Ilya. So they call him.

    Very interesting premise of the boys' inhibitions just going 'poof' during the club scene because all the yearning and jealousy just override literally every other emotion for long enough.
