Summary
“My apartment,” he says, keeping his tone deliberately even. Casual. “I mean… it’s close by, right? You could stay there instead of dealing with the hotel nonsense.”
The words hang in the air between them, fragile and irrevocable. Rozanov goes very still.
Shane feels a flash of panic—wonders if he’s misjudged, if he’s pushed too hard and too fast. He rushes to fill the silence, almost tripping over the words, trying to frame it the way he rehearsed in his head.
“It’s more practical, right?” He adds. “Less media. No teammates. You’d have your own space. And it’s only until flights start up again. You can leave first thing when they resume.”
--- After Rose, after Florida, but having barely reconciled since, Shane and Ilya are stuck in Montreal during a snow storm. Shane offers for Ilya to stay in his apartment, and offers up the rest of his heart with it. Or, an alternate take on what happens after Episode 4.

Summary
The Voyageurs ask Shane to join FanMail in order to foster a better connection with fans. Internet sleuths start to notice some interesting details in the background of Shane’s videos, and then the internet does...what the internet does.
Or Shane and Ilya are granted an opportunity to come out on their own terms. Sort of. And in they do it in a very Ilya way. (Surprisingly, it is Shane’s idea)

Summary
“Please fire me,” Merlin laughs. “I dare you to sack me for longer than two days.”
“You don’t think I can make it two days without you?” The idea is absurd. As if he needs Merlin of all people.
“You haven’t yet.”
. .
Or: Arthur doesn’t know what the point of his manservant is. (Until, of course, he does.

Summary
“Hey there, Jamie,” Ted says with more than his usual enthusiasm. “It’s awful nice to see you. How’ve you been?”
“Oh,” Jamie says, smug like he’s been for days now, “I’m doing great, thanks for asking.”
He surreptitiously separates his hand from Roy’s, bringing it up to his face to show off the ring.
Roy watches Nate lean too far forward in his seat on the shelf and jerk back, overcorrecting, watches Beards eyes widen like saucers and his mouth drop open. Roy was right. Fucking with them is so much fun when it’s not paired with deep emotional turmoil.
Trent’s face hasn’t fully settled back into a passive expression, but his voice is casual when he asks, “new ring, Jamie?”Or, Roy and Jamie finally communicated with each other; now they have to tell everyone else. (And Jamie has decided they’re engaged.)
This is very much a sequel/epilogue and I imagine it won’t make much sense without reading thumbs because it is a bit self-referential and very indulgent, but it’s also just a silly coming out fic, so maybe it could be? Proceed at will (and if it doesn’t make sense, feel free to read thumbs or to abandon ship.)
