    Summary

    “Tell me nothing is wrong with me,” he begs, his big brown eyes welling with tears that haven’t yet spilled over, and Ilya miscalculated somewhere along the way. Ilya fucked up.

    This is not Quiet Shane. This is the Shane that Ilya can’t control himself around no matter how many years it’s been. The Shane that’s always lurking underneath the surface, ready to drown him at the first sign of Ilya’s weakness—the first drop of blood in the water. This is the Shane that Ilya would send home with bitemarks on his face and arms, all the way up through the second grade, because Shane would smile at him, like Ilya’s own personal sunflower.

    Shane gets hard when a classmate from school hits him during a fight. Ilya, his best friend since diapers, knows everything there is to know about sex. Surely, he’ll have a way to fix this.

    Summary

    Searching I woke up with a pussy brings anything from porn results to Creepypasta forums. Shane miserably clicks on a Reddit thread, trying in vain to find any sort of answers when there's a knock on the bathroom door. 

    "Shane? Are you feeling ok?" 

    "I- yeah." Shane jumps, nearly dropping his phone. "I'm fine. Why?"

    There's a pause. "Are you sick?"

    Shane swallowed. Was he sick? Is that what triggered this? 

    "You have been in there for almost half an hour. If you are sick, I want to know." 

    "No, not like-  not like that." Shane flushed. God, how was he gonna explain this? 

    ・・・・・

    On their first day of summer vacation, Shane wakes up with a pussy. He decides to hide it from Ilya and wait for it to go away. This decision has consequences.

    Summary

    Wouldn’t it be heartbreaking if, after Ilya casually suggests Shane could sleep with other people when they’re apart, Shane takes it completely the wrong way? He becomes deeply insecure, convincing himself it means he isn’t performing well enough in the bedroom. Desperate to fix it, he starts googling ways to be better in bed, trying things he never would have considered before, all in a frantic attempt to keep Ilya satisfied.

    Or: After Ilya tells Shane he could sleep with other people, Shane tries to change himself so that Ilya wouldn’t want to look elsewhere.

    Based off a conversation briefly mentioned in TLG

    Summary

    5+1

    5 times the Centaurs and other GC friends think Ilya is being a pushy or bossy twat to Shane, and one time they see Shane's true colors.

    Aka, that one time Shane walked Ilya like a dog in front of the Cens and they all had to recalibrate their opinion of their captain's relationship

    Summary

    “Papa,” Shane starts, raising his voice to be heard, “who is that?”

    His father finishes sipping the wine in his goblet and turns his head to face Shane, who is still looking at the gladiator, and raises a brow at him. “You don’t know? He’s the most beloved gladiator in Rome, perhaps the entire empire. Never lost a fight.”

    He can’t be that beloved if I’ve never heard of him, Shane thinks. He does not voice this, but hums in acknowledgement instead.

    “And what’s his name? This great gladiator?”

    The voice of the Emperor of Rome sounds tinged with something almost like respect when he answers.

    Xanthos.”

    Shane, son of the Roman Emperor, attends a gladiatorial games for the first time in his life. He finds something much more entertaining there than the combat.
