    Summary

    This was the part he had not wanted to say.

    The part that made him feel genuinely stupid.

    Shane waited.

    Ilya swallowed. “You did not think maybe they would hear I give you black eye and not believe the accident part?”

    Or:

    Shane exploits Ilya being ticklish and takes an accidental elbow to the face.

    During a game against Toronto, Dallas Kent jumps to a conclusion that sends Ilya spiraling.

    Summary

    Ilya has two problems.

    The first is that his best friend is freshly single and needs to get laid. The second is that Ilya is having some...weird feelings about it.

    These are completely platonic and heterosexual concerns for his friend, of course.

    (or a college au featuring shane and ilya as best friends, and shane as ilya's bisexual awakening)

    Summary

    So Rozanov had a fetish. It didn't matter. Montreal didn't play Boston again for a month, and by then Shane would have gone through a dozen new bruises blooming and fading away. They played hockey; it was a fact of life. The next time they met Rozanov would have forgotten about it.

    Shane didn't, though.

    Summary

    “Ilya,” he breathes into Shane's open, slightly panting mouth. Shane jostles their position, pointing his thumb at his own chest in an exaggerated manner.

    “Shane,” he replies. Quietly, like it's a request, not a statement. Ilya's eyes gentle, and he kisses Shane's nose.

    “Shane.”

    Or: another "Shane stays post-tuna melt scene" fic.
