Summary
“You’re going to Boston.”
Long after Farah hangs up, the words keep echoing in Shane’s head. If he had thought his thoughts had been chaotic this morning, when his biggest problem had been his rival potentially fucking him when he came to Montreal in two weeks, that’s nothing compared to the code-red panic that started the instant he found out he was being traded to Rozanov’s team.
Rozanov, who was supposed to be his great career rival. Rozanov, who he’s hooked up with twice now. Rozanov, who had been planning on coming to Shane’s apartment in Montreal to fuck him the next time they saw each other. God, how on Earth is Shane going to walk into his locker room in Boston in a few days time?
The impending awkwardness of dealing with Rozanov is almost enough to eclipse the hurt he’s trying to ignore. The knowledge that Montreal values him so little that they’re willing to dispose of him only six months into his rookie season. Almost, but not quite.

Summary
Shane Hollander is an ambitious sports management student with dreams of becoming a renowned NFL analyst. Ilya Rozanov is cocky, aggravating, and happens to be the country’s best college football athlete.
When Shane is forced to do a report on Ilya for his senior project, resisting his charms should be easy. Ilya is everything he can’t stand. Unfortunately, the laws of attraction are rarely that simple and Shane may find himself with far more than he bargained for.

Summary
“You will not be so nice when we beat you,” Ilya told Shane Hollander, holding onto his hand, not letting him pull away. Not yet.
But Hollander’s brow furrowed, not in anger but in confusion. “Ah, um, sorry,” Hollander said. “Merci. My English is bad. Worse… than you. Maybe slower?” And he leaned in, like that would help him understand.
Ilya’s eyebrows rose, and his smile widened.
Or, Ilya Rozanov grew up in Russia. Shane Hollander was raised in France. When they first meet, neither of them can speak English very well. Somehow, it’s easier to understand each other when words aren’t getting in the way.
(Stand-alone remix of “I’m Reading Your Lips (You’re Speaking My Language)” but this time neither of them are native English speakers, and learning a new language is sort of like falling in love, if you think about it.)

Summary
Ilya was used to hazing. He had been subjected to it, he had participated in it, and, as a captain, he had stood guard over the rookies and protected them from anything truly harmful. But if he had been asked, Ilya would have approved of this prank. He would have authorized it, given Cliff and Vicky his seal of approval, perhaps even helped orchestrate it.
Any other day, Ilya might have been happy to play along.
But, in perfect dramatic irony, it had not happened any other day. It had happened today. And, cherry on top, of course the rookie had to walk in when Shane was already freaking out about Ilya saying his name.
+++
A prank-gone-wrong leads to the Boston Bears finding out about Shane and Ilya’s relationship in 2016. The day Ilya first invited Shane into his house. Right after they say each other’s names for the first time. Fuck his life, honestly.

Summary
“I’m sorry, but my answer is no. Someone else might be willing to switch if you ask.”
“I can’t believe—this is unacceptable! I’m going to call the flight attendant over and get this sorted out right now!”
Flustered and cornered, Shane injects his Captain Voice into the conversation. “Ma’am, I understand that you’re upset, but I paid for this seat and am going to stay here. You’ll have to find someone else willing to change places or just fly with the seat you booked. I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”
She hisses like a goddamn tea kettle, and starts to say, “You are the most selfish man I’ve ever—” when another voice behind her says, “You are blocking my seat. Move.”
Shane and the woman turn to assess the new arrival. It turns out that his seat partner is well above six feet tall, ripped as hell, and knows how to deliver an excellent bitch face. He’s also the hottest man that Shane has ever seen in real life, including a chance run-in with Jensen Ackles at a Stars game.
Or, still!famous Shane meets non!famous Ilya on a cursed flight from Ottawa to Boston and kind of (totally) falls in love with him at first sight (and first chirp)

Summary
For eighty years, Shane Hollander has made all the right decisions. Putting hockey above everything, abstaining from cake and lemonade and chicken parmesan. And never kissing boys, especially Russian boys with crooked grins who always saw right through him. This restraint has secured Shane a legacy as one of the greatest players of all time. Everything he ever wanted, and somehow never enough.
Ilya Rozanov is long dead, lost to fire and water in a plane crash half a century ago. But at the end of his carefully controlled life, Shane can’t stop dreaming about him, haunted by echoes of what might have been.
Given a chance to change the past, Shane has to decide what really matters: hockey, or the only bad decision he was ever tempted to make.
or: fate and Irina Rozanov have unexpectedly romantic sensibilities, time travel is all it’s cracked up to be, and maybe, just maybe, some lovers (no, Ilya that’s gross) are meant to find each other in every universe.

Like the fact that he may have been secretly in love with Shane the entire time they’ve worked together.

Summary
Ilya steps forward, crowding Shane against the wall. The heat between them has grown almost unbearable.
He lowers his head to whisper in Shane’s ear.
“Go ahead, Hollander. Meet all the new people you want. Take them out, take them home, whatever.”
He can feel the shakiness in Shane’s breathing on his own face. Ilya leans in.
His words ghost against Shane’s lips, an awful mockery of a kiss.
“They’re never going to fuck you like I did.”
Suddenly, he is violently shoved away.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing?”
Or,
Shane and Ilya are hooking up, and deeply in love with each other. It’s a shame they’ve never said it out loud.
Until Shane ends things, and Ilya just can’t let it go.

Summary
Ilya’s brows quirked again, and he flicked open the first page of the textbook, ‘and you decided to learn Russian now because...?’
‘Because I married a Russian man, and I figured it was about time I learned.’
‘You never learned with me.’ Ilya said.
‘No.’ Shane replied, tersely, ‘there was a lot I never did with you.’
Or: After Shane's college relationship ends in heartbreak, he patches up his wounds by marrying a wealthy, older man, and he's so sure his life is perfect. That is, until his ex re-enters the picture, and he wonders if maybe he got it all wrong.

Summary
Rough palms slip past his coat, under his sweatshirt, to his skin. “So it’s not serious then? Your upper body injury.”
Shane almost laughs. “I don’t know.” He almost cries.
A hand slides up towards his chest. “Hollander—”
“Stop.”
He holds on to Rozanov’s wrists even as they pull away.
“Did I hurt you?”
“No,” but the cardiac monitor would’ve been palpable under his skin.
Canon-compliant through the CCM commercial shoot, then sharply diverges in September 2010, when Shane suffers a cardiac event during training camp that forces his medical retirement before he ever plays a single game with Montreal. Without his playing career, Shane goes to college, finds his way back to hockey as an aspiring coach, and somehow, even without the heat of rivalry, finds his way to Ilya, too.

Shane waited with bated breath, mentally preparing himself for the incoming judgement. “...I think I’m homophobic.”
Rose barely kept the surprised off her face. “What?”
“I think I’m homophobic.”
“What the fuck do you mean you think you’re homophobic?”
He groaned. “I don’t know! I think I’m prejudiced against gay people. Isn’t that pretty self-explanatory?”

Summary
Ilya grinned smugly. “Fine. That is what I thought. Let me fuck you, Shane, I promise it will be so much better than fine.”
“Why are you so obsessed with me?”
“You are pretty. And I like a challenge.”
“Asshole,” Shane spat.
“I get off at eleven. Come home with me tonight.”
“Fuck you. I’m not cheating on my boyfriend.”
Ilya hooked his lip between his teeth, looking Shane up and down like a predator. “...Okay. Let me have your number.”

Shane never meant to get caught up in this situation. Ilya Rozanov was a damn asshole. He was just also really, really hot.

Summary
He figures Ilya would be pretty surprised if he showed up to his house out of the blue. Surprised enough to be put off, probably. Shane is way too bad of a liar to think of any plausible excuse. If this is really happening, if Shane is actually by some miracle getting another shot at this, then he’s going to have to play this smart. His impatience to see Ilya again will have to be tempered. He’s not sure how time travel works, but he has the sneaking suspicion that one wrong move could unravel everything.
Ilya is alive.
Just the thought of it is enough to make Shane crack his first smile in a year.
--
AU in which Ilya dies in the Centaurs' plane crash. A year later, careless with grief, Shane drives his car into a blizzard and wakes up in Boston, in 2016. When faced with the opportunity to do it right this time, and keep Ilya for good, Shane knows that every decision he makes will be crucial. It's terrifying, but Ilya once told him that he's brave. Now it's up to Shane to prove it.

So what is the plan now, Mr. Spreadsheet?
“Honestly I was kind of hoping your consciousness would just click back into your body once I touched you.” Shane scratches the back of his head.
You treat me like slap bracelet, Ilya complains.
After a bad hit knocks Ilya’s consciousness out of his body — literally — Shane finds himself sheltering the soul of his decade-long situationship in the back of his head. Turns out it’s a lot harder to keep secrets when you share a body.
(They definitely still try, though.)

Summary
"Oh." Hollander has gone a little red, beneath his freckles. "I am from… French Canada? Québec? Do you know? Very… very small town there, no English, only French. I try to learn, but— is a bit hard."
Ilya feels mildly stupid. He knew, obviously, that they speak French in Canada, but he didn’t know it was, like— some people’s only language. He’d sort of assumed everyone was fluent in both.
"Huh. Cool."
"Your English is very good," Hollander offers.
Ilya laughs.
"I mean, yeah— I grew up in Minneapolis."
