Summary
“Our kid is going to be so spoiled,” Shane groans. “Maybe we’ll learn how to be stricter during camp. It’s long hours and kids need structure.”
They lay there in silence.
“I wish I knew you when you were a kid,” Shane admits. “Those pictures of you make me want to cry.”

Summary
He looks at Yuna, who looks at him back, seeming like she wants to say something but doesn’t know how.
“Shane says you have been a Metros fan for your entire life,” Ilya offers.
It’s a good starting spot. Things they both know. Shane. Hockey.
Ilya is determined to earn the right to love Shane the way he’s had to earn everything. He doesn’t expect for that to extend reciprocation, but it does, anyway.

“What did you actually think?”
He can’t help it. He looks at Ilya. Ilya only stares at him. “I say that now, in hindsight. Back then, I wasn’t thinking. Not really. It would come to me in waves, the anxiety, the fear. Most of the time,” he says. “I was just…”
“Waiting for me to speak?” Ilya offers.
Shane shakes his head, “I was trying to make it to tomorrow with you alive.”

Bookmarker's Notes
tanto la primera parte como esta (la segunda) son una UNA PUTA LOCURA i'm in the verge of fucking tears omg. Dividido en sesiones de terapia, Sveta y Rose siendo las mejores amigas del mundo, los Centaurs y los Hollander, lots and LOTS of couple and individual healing. Fue todo lo que leí en el día y mi corazón ya no podía más. Con qué alimentan a estos escritores wtf this is fire, the definition of "Angst with Happy Ending"

Summary
Ilya doesn’t even realize when Arthur slips from his thoughts. There’s no sharp turn, no clear moment where the article stops being about a little boy who loves reptiles and starts being about the man lying beside him in bed. It just… happens. The way his mind always seems to find Shane eventually, like water finding its lowest point.

Summary
“Hi Irina.”
Ilya feels his blood still in his veins. His vision almost immediately blurs at the sound of his mother’s name falling so gently from Shane’s lips. Shane rambles something, almost to himself, before:
“I’m Shane. Shane Hollander. And I’m in love with your son, Ilya.”
Ilya’s breath catches, heart lurching in his chest, fluttering almost painfully as the realization hits him: He’s introducing himself to her.

Summary
Canada had given him his life as he knew it, but it had never felt one hundred percent comfortable, either. He missed Russia sometimes, but it didn’t have the thing that mattered most. Ilya had exactly one home, and it was this: his face pressed into a smooth chest, his head tucked under a strong jaw, with freckled arms wrapped around him and delicate fingers combing through his hair. Anywhere else was a temporary excursion.
A treatise on second (and third) languages, homesickness, acceptance, Shane's struggle learning Russian, and the things people do when they care.

Summary
"I'm a professional athlete, of course I'm not going to treat my body 'normally'."
"So am I," Ilya reminds him, "and I don't do the things you do. That excuse might work on your mom or your friends, but it does not work with me."
"It's not an excuse, it's the truth."
Watching Shane do this to himself is a hell like no other. Ilya has no idea how to bring it up, but he doesn't have a choice.
He's fucking terrified.

Summary
“This one is almost full,” Ilya said from across the living room. He was holding something up.
They’d both ditched their jackets and rolled up their sleeves, so Shane’s eyes followed the line of Ilya's arm: shoulder, to bent elbow, to bare forearm, to wrist, to hand. Ilya’s fingers were wrapped around the neck of a champagne bottle. Shane wasn’t really certain how many there had been lying around–Yuna and David had been in charge of handling refreshments–but an open, nearly-full bottle indicated that perhaps there had been too much.
“Bring it here and I’ll dump it out.”
“Dump it out?” Ilya frowned, crossing the living room towards the kitchen. “And waste it?”
“What would you rather do?”
Ilya set the bottle on the counter and came up behind Shane, strong arms slinking around his waist, Ilya’s lips just barely brushing against his ear. It wasn’t surprising–they’d both been a little clingy ever since the ceremony.
“I want to share it with you.”
Shane and Ilya's wedding night, after the guests have gone home, and a bit of the day after.

Summary
Shane pats Parker’s shoulder, such a genuine gesture that Ilya wonders where he’s going with this. “Do a favor for me?” He leans in a little closer, physically blocking Parker from seeing Ilya.
“What?”
Shane’s smile fades away. His voice is stern, final when he answers. “Get back to your team, and step the fuck away from my husband?”
He doesn't bother to mince his words. Not tonight, with Ilya being as exhausted as he is, and not with Ilya being uncomfortable. He rarely gets to see him this outwardly protective. He expected Shane to come over, grab his hand and lead him away from the booth with some random excuse. But this—this is Shane losing his patience for all of those manners. His only concern is Ilya.
—a collection of moments where Shane takes care of Ilya during a depressive episode.

Prenatal Predicament by ThePromptWasntThisLong (shredded_potato)

Summary
"Ilya, I'm not—we can't—I'm not pregnant."
Ilya grins. “Not yet.”
All Shane wanted was a nice, romantic weekend. A little yoga, a little relaxation, quality time with his husband. What he got was three days of prenatal classes, a room full of pregnant women, and Ilya treating the whole thing like his personal comedy special.
They were the only couple without a baby bump. Ilya decided this was a minor detail. By the final day, he was more invested in their "pregnancy" than half the actual parents in the room.
Or;
Shane books the wrong yoga class. Ilya makes it everyone's problem.

Summary
On the road, VI can’t stop looking at Caitlyn. Her thoughts are a roaring mix of affection, guilt, curiosity, hunger. When was the last time she felt like this? Has she ever?
What is confounding Vi the most is that Caitlyn still hasn’t asked for anything, nothing concrete. Nothing, anyway, that could give Vi any guidance on how to proceed.
What does one do, when they desire someone without any other kind of strings attached? Without the need to hide away, be quick not to get caught, be rough to not be seen as weak? Is she simply allowed to take and be taken? What if it breaks her? What if it breaks both of them?***
Caitlyn is out of options- the only chance she has of avenging her mother is by partnering with Vi, the sister of her mother's killer, convicted in her place ten years prior. Together, they set out through the country on a desperate search, with the Chembarons on their tail.
Caitlyn is struggling with her grief and her guilt, Vi has to learn how to live. The road will either save them, or swallow them whole.

Summary
Vi looks at the big clock on the far wall. 7:46AM. She’s one minute late today. Every morning for the past six months - well, every morning Vi’s been on shift, so she’s just assuming about the other days - she’s passed by at exactly 7:45AM, always at a brisk walk, always in a perfectly-tailored suit, not a single long, silky-looking hair out of place.
7:47AM. The crisp clack of heeled boots on concrete pulls Vi out of her musings. There must have been some sort of emergency, because the subject of Vi’s (minor) obsession walks past the fire station at a faster clip than normal. Which is sort of saying something, because Mystery Woman’s got legs for days, long and slender, visibly toned with long, lean muscle through her suit pants. At the faster clip, Vi has less time to admire her ass and tiny, tiny waist as she walks by, but that’s fine, because the view as she leaves is fantastic.
OR
Caitlyn's route to work as a detective at the 51st Precinct takes her right by Fire Station #516, and Vi's been pining after the gorgeous Mystery Woman for six months...what will happen when she finds out that Caitlyn's a cop (AKA: The Enemy)?

Summary
“Houston, do you copy?”
Caitlyn panicked, feeling extraordinarily unprepared having been thrust into her new position without so much as even a handbook to consult. What were the formalities? What was she supposed to respond with? Where was the damn push to talk button…
“Hellooo? I said Houston, do you copy?”
Caitlyn fiddled with her headset, having finally found the green button on the side and hastily letting out a rather breathless reply. “Um, yes. Hello? This is Houston. I copy.”
There was a long pause in which Caitlyn sat twiddling her thumbs, anxiety pushing the frantic pulse of her heartbeat through her eardrums. Was that wrong? Did she already fuck up? She took a steady deep breath, finger hovering over the talk button until the familiar voice of the astronaut came through her headset once more.
“Damn, Houston. I didn’t expect you to sound so sexy.”
OR
Caitlyn has been assigned as the personal capcom to one of the astronauts currently on a year long expedition at the international space station. Cue long months of pining and desperate longing.

Summary
It wasn’t an earth-shattering kaboom, or an upheaval of her life, or any other dramatic nonsense she’d heard from Jayce and Viktor, from Claggor and Mylo about the searching for and the discovering of love. It wasn’t this moment of lucidity, a thunderstrike of passion and feeling that overcame her senses and pointed her home. If anything, it was understated, quiet, a simple pleasure.
It was an exhalation.

Summary
“How’s it going?” Vi asked after a beat, her words tentative, careful.
Caitlyn hesitated, managing a faint smile. It was strained but genuine in its intent.
“I’m... readjusting,” she said quietly, the word carrying more weight than she could put into words. Her hand instinctively brushed against the eyepatch, a tangible reminder of how much had changed.
Vi nodded slowly, her gaze distant, lost in thoughts Caitlyn could only guess at.
She exhaled deeply, the sound heavy with grief. “I’m... readjusting too,” she echoed, though her tone was heavier, burdened with emotions that threatened to spill over.
OR
The first conversation between Caitlyn and Vi after the war.
