Summary
“I’m telling you, Shane,” Ilya says. “I take birthdays very seriously.”
Shane lets out a dignified snort. “Sure.”
“And I take your birthday the most seriously. It is my job as your boyfriend, yeah?”
Shane’s heart squeezes in his chest. “Yeah, okay.”
Ilya smiles, his eyes softening. “Moy lyubimiyy,” he murmurs. “I am going to celebrate you the way you deserve.”
* * *Shane is used to being told he’s impossible to buy a birthday present for. It’s not exactly fun to be reminded of this fact about himself year after year, but he’s come to accept that it’s probably his own fault. After all, what do you give a man who has zero interests outside hockey and keeps his cards close to his chest?
Turns out, his boyfriend might have a few ideas.
(Or, Shane celebrates his birthday with Ilya for the first time since they started dating, and Ilya proves he’s the indisputable king of giving gifts.)

good for my heart (bad for business) by xogray for RIVALKONNIE

Summary
"Do you think…" Shane says, focusing too intensely on washing the glass, "that, um, the team will care? About us, like… being in the locker room together? Because we're married."
Ilya pauses. Shane can feel him inhale, then exhale, Ilya's chest moving against his back. Without a word, Ilya takes the glass and the sponge from Shane's hands, sets them in the sink, and then runs their hands under the water to clear the soap. He shuts the tap off and reaches for the towel, drying them both off. Shane almost smiles at how Ilya does everything for him, rather than just telling him to put the dish down.
Ilya steps back just enough to place his hands on Shane's hips and spin him around, eyeing him curiously. "What do you mean, moya lyubov?"
Shane twists his mouth to one side, fiddling with the edge of Ilya's sweater. "I was just wondering if we should, like, establish rules with how much PDA we do. I worry that being too… touchy might make people uncomfortable. Especially if we're doing it every day."
- or, 5 times PDA around the Centaurs makes Shane nervous, plus 1 time it doesn't

Summary
“Il…ya” He wheezed, and Ilya lurched forward, barely making it in time to catch Shane as he slid down to the floor.
“Sweetheart, what’s happening, is it panic attack?” Ilya looked horrified, his hands clamoring to press into Shane’s chest in an attempt to ground him.
Shane shook his head, tears springing to his eyes as his throat continued to close in.
“You’re not breathing right.” Ilya said, suddenly noticing the panicked way Shane attempted to inhale, and Shane wanted to just kiss away all the worry in his voice. “Fuck.”
“I…” Shane gasped, the sound all raspy and weak as he inhaled, or rather attempted to, the edges of his vision starting to darken and spin with dizziness as he gazed up at Ilya’s beautiful eyes.
Maybe this is how he was going to die, unable to breathe and clawing at his throat on Zane Boodram's kitchen floor.
Well… at least he was in Ilya’s arms.
Or
Shane, already nervous for his first team hang with the Centaurs, allows himself to finally relax and enjoy the night with his husband by his side, only to run right into trouble when he has an adverse reaction to something unexpected.

Summary
“You know - my biggest fucking fear came true on a huge scale. The entire planet found out I’m gay, Ilya can never go back to his home country again, my life blew up, and none of you asked if I was okay. I can’t believe I almost gave him up just so I would never have to face this exact reaction from people who yesterday I would’ve considered family. I can’t believe what I almost let you all cost me.” And then, quieter, “I can’t believe how little it took for you to throw me away.”
Hauling his bag over his shoulder, Shane stared around the room, one more glance at the men he’d given the best years of his career to.
“Best of luck next year without me.”
OR
Hurt by the team's accusations that he let the Centaurs win, Shane gets his pain off his chest before leaving the Voyageurs' locker room for good.
