Summary
If you’d already decided love was more than enough, that being together was bigger than fear; if you’d already picked each other over everything else, already picked a season to make it known; if you’d exchanged rings and vows and you knew this was forever and—most significantly—no one’s idiot best friend accidentally outed you early with his stupid side-hustle video scheme: would you stick to the plan?
Or, would you play a slightly longer game to make your point; would you wait a couple extra months if it meant seizing the opportunity to go big, go bold, shove loving this much in the faces of the naysayers and the assholes and the bigots on an oh-so-convenient, quadrennially-available global stage?

Or: No FanMail. No outing. No forced free agency. Just their terms. Just their choice. Just their love.
So hell yes: Shane and Ilya use the 2022 Winter Olympics as their hard launch. How’s that even a question?
Scott Hunter’s gonna be so pissed at being upstaged that bad. -

Summary
So: the thing about controlling your own timeline for coming out to the public about being engaged to the your very public rival who just so happens to also be the love of your whole goddamn life?
You’ve got a lot of leeway. A lot of opportunities to slip up and give yourself away.
Though: should your fiancé just so happen to be an absolute menace and troll extraordinaire on main, you might end up giving yourself away all the goddamn time, and on purpose, while no one fucking notices.
OR: three times Ilya and Shane really should have been caught out for being halfway married, and one last time when they (read: Shane) finally accepted that people were generally too stupid to put the obvious pieces together, even if those pieces were painted in neon colours, sitting right in front of their faces.
