Summary
“Ilya,” Shane says.
“Shane. You look very serious today.”
“Did you or did you not create a burner account to write hate tweets about Rose and me? Back when we dated?”
Ilya blinks, the picture of innocence. Which, when it’s Ilya, is as good as signing a confession. “You and Rose dated ?”
Or: sometimes Shane and Ilya go viral. It's usually not on purpose. But it keeps happening.

When Shane can't sleep, he goes down Wikipedia rabbit holes.
or: if you can't figure out your situationship.... Google him.

Summary
“Would you like to dance?”
He regards my outstretched hand for a moment, lingering long enough that I know he’s contemplating having me killed instead, but then he takes it. As I knew he would.
It’s as we wind our way though the crowds towards the dance floor that I feel it — the prickle of heat on the back of my neck. The weight of someone’s gaze trailing me across the room.
I know without looking that Cardan has decided to look at me at last.OR, Jude finds her own revenge on Cardan for what he did to her.

Summary
She’s hardly surprised, the first few times it happens. The hallucinations are vivid, but not long, not much, just short, staccato bursts of him, tiny pieces to keep her going -- his hand extended out to her to help her up from the rubble, his voice a soothing murmur in her ear telling her she’ll be alright until she finds water… of course she sees him, of course she hears him. It’s Bellamy -- who else would her mind conjure up to help her survive? There are worse symptoms praimfaya has left her with than a few too-real imaginings of her best friend after all.
{Clarke's not worried when she starts to hallucinate Bellamy. It's only when the dreams continue to haunt her even after the real Bellamy comes back that she's concerned}

Summary
“…You want to?” he asks.
Shane blinks. “What?”
“Kiss someone.”
The question makes Shane’s brain short circuit.
Shane swallows. “I mean—yeah.”
“Then why haven’t you?”
“I don’t know.” Shane shrugs again, shoulders tight. “Timing. People. It’s just… not something I think about like that.”
That’s not entirely true.
He does think about it. Just in a different way. Abstractly. Like something other people do, but not he himself.
Ilya watches him for a long moment.
“I could show you.”

Summary
If Shane had had a good, close friend, a confidante, somebody he could talk to about whatever was happening between him and Ilya Rozanov, and that good close friend got it in their head that maybe Shane liked Ilya, had feelings for him, one of the first things Shane would say to refute it would be: but he smokes.
Shane, Ilya, cigarettes - a love triangle for the ages.

Summary
The first thing you should know about time loops is that they’re really fucking hard to break. The second thing is that you can never break one in such a way that it is incapable of returning.
The third thing you should know is that everyone around you has probably been stuck in a time loop at one point or another, and they made it out alive. This is only comforting if you’re a numbers guy, or if you’re the kind of guy who talks to others about how it feels to live the same day over and over and over and over and over and over again.
Shame if you’re not; the most important thing you should know about breaking a time loop is that it helps to tell someone you’re trapped in one in the first place.
