Summary
Then like an anomaly in one of his datasets, a green OPEN tag appears next to one of the restaurants. Shane squints his eyes, having difficulty seeing properly without his glasses.
Irina's Kitchen
4.02 stars
3 reviewsShane doesn't bother reading them. He taps on the website and waits for it to load. Only to be met with error.
Sighing he exits the page and keeps on scrolling. Nothing that is open catches his interest and the rest are closed. He's wondering how stale celery would taste dipped in pickle juice when his eyes land on Irina's Kitchen once more.
There's a phone number under the address. Shane bites his lower lip and wonders if he should call.
A woman with an accented voice picks up after the 5th ring.
“Hello?”
“Uh, hey, are you guys still open?”

关于(((与)))的故事
shane在与ilya交流的过程中学会了用括号表示笑或者悲伤,他把这个用到了自己社交媒体的发言上,在媒体的猜测中他才意识到这是俄语中常见的用法而非英语
可爱幽默的对话,有着作者一如既往的精美交互设计 -

This is so adorable. I always crack up at how Ilya uses emojis. The whole plot where Shane keeps coordinating with people to fill up the gift basket is such a clever, sweet touch—and every single item inside the basket ends up being something Ilya absolutely adores. It’s so romantic and thoughtful.
Who wouldn’t want that gift basket? of course I can’t.
btw can him actually put a signed copy of MLH15 by Hollander into a Raiders gift basket? I can’t even imagine how fans back then would’ve reacted😂lol(Anyway they finally caught on years later -

Summary
Anyway, Shane didn't remember exactly what was in the folder ... But he knew they were all good shots of him.
He hastily clicked open the folder, his eyes barely glancing through the dozen or so shots there, vaguely registering a picture with a sunset background from his condo balcony, something of him laughing, a picture of him working at his laptop with his glasses on...
The director called him again, and he shook his head, the photos blurring. Whatever. It would have to do.
He clicked "select all," then the messages icon, then Rozanov's name. Hit send.

Or: When never-hooked-up Shane and Ilya have to collaborate on a league charity project, Shane accidentally sends Ilya a nude.

有趣而sooooo hot的剧情展开🥺🥺🥺特别喜欢这个故事,shane错误地向ilya发送了一张照片成为了一切故事开始的导火索,shane惊恐发作时ilya打电话安抚这一段简直是对二者性格和相处方式最完美的复现...温暖甜蜜而sexy的故事,同时想到在无人知晓的某个冰岛小镇见面也太浪漫,身处此地,莫斯科与渥太华也遥远在世界两段🫶

Bookmarker's Notes
What first drew me in was the intricate interactive design of this work. Every letter came with an authentic-looking address bar and lovely stamps (Shane consistently used Canadian landscape stamps, while Ilya was initially obsessed with all kinds of lizard stamps, lol)Watching the letter’s contents unfurl gradually as you opened the envelope’s cover was an absolutely magical experience.
As the chapters unfolded and time passed within the story, information delivered through many other forms of media was woven in: postcards, emails, instant messaging apps and more. Every tiny detail built an incredibly immersive, tangible universe. I adored the email usernames hollowderloon24 and boringshane, their silly, endearing doodles, and how they used Snoopy and Woodstock to represent themselves. All these touches felt so charming and genuine that I could practically picture Shane and Ilya’s expressions and tone as they lived through each moment.Beyond the immersive design, the author’s storytelling and writing are brilliant; every line in the letters reads exactly as if the characters themselves had penned it. some plot points stuck with me most. The first was Shane coming out to Ilya. When I reached the final chapter and saw all the draft letters he’d written then discarded, I flipped back to reread the final version he’d sent. My heart ached — Shane tread so carefully, terrified that being honest would cost him Ilya, yet Ilya caught his confession gently and tenderly. It brought me close to tears.
The second sweet, humorous moment was when Ilya sent Shane two loon plushies. In his signature gruff, teasing way, he wrote that he’d bought two loons for himself too, so Shane wouldn’t have to feel like the odd one out, the only person in the world with two loons. Beneath that brash demeanor lay the quiet promise of staying by Shane’s side. He also said their combined loons would form a wolf bird flock, his subtle, quirky way of hinting he wanted to meet Shane in person. Later, once they finally met, I laughed out loud at the chat photo showing all four loon plushies grouped together — it was utterly adorable!This story is filled with countless little details I revisit again and again. You’re such an incredible author, your prose and design craft are absolutely exquisite 🩷🩷🩷 Once more, you’re phenomenal
I used a translation tool, hope my words don’t sound too awkward
