    Summary

    “Your family’s nice,” Dan says quietly.

    “Dan, are you okay?” Phil asks, “Your heart’s pounding.”

    “Yeah. Yeah. I’m okay.” How can Dan explain that he isn’t just okay? He’s so much better. “Thanks for having me.”

    Phil’s answer is quiet with exhaustion and muffled by Dan’s chest, but Dan hears him loud and clear.
    “Always.”

    In 2009, certified loverboy Dan Howell crosses the country to spend Christmas with his boyfriend of two months and his family. He discovers that the Lester family handles the holidays differently than Dan's family does.

    In 2025, Dan and Phil invite their families to spend Christmas in the house they built.

    This is a fic about then, and now, and a few points in between.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is such good 1980s internalized homophobia angst, like I really really felt that. Young Dan comes across really clearly as kind of too young to be that scared, and very determined to live how he wants, with Phil showing how having gone down the gay road and living a more protected upbringing before can actually make you *more* scared.

    Summary

    I couldn't stop thinking about the stuff that's offscreen or off the page, so here is an unsexy vignette about Ilya Rozanov's rookie season and some people doing some work on themselves.

    also yeah i know enough about hockey to know there's no way a teenaged rookie from a foreign country would have been left to get his own apartment in his first season. no way, he was in somebody's house.
    so this is whose house he was in, and what he did there.

    Beginning of such a thoughtful, varied, and enjoyable series that carries Ilya and Shane through an AU—but still very close to canon!—featuring new core relationships for Ilya, extra Gritty, extra Rose, extra Sveta, and some really fun parts when Shane and Ilya get high together.

    Summary

    “It needs to be airtight,” said Shane, folding his laptop and laying it on the bedside table. “It can’t  be—we can’t just put out a statement, ‘Oh, we’re friends now.’ We need to be seen together. In public. Becoming friends.” He took off his glasses, set them on the laptop.

    “Yes, I know,” said Ilya. “We decided. I will approach you.”

     

    (Set at some point post-Season 1. Shane and Ilya need to establish the start of their "friendship" in the public eye. Naturally, this becomes seeing how hard they can covertly flirt with each other. Naturally, that becomes sexual roleplaying as a version of themselves that didn't have an almost decade-long situationship.)

    Summary

    “Mm, not stuff his pockets with the drug everyone thinks makes you gay right before a press conference? Maybe!” Ilya’s voice chimed happily from the phone.

    “You wanna tell us why you’re so acquainted with Rush that you can identify it in 780p, Ilya?” Kip asked.

    “…I have so much leather to deodorize, Kip Grady. So many sports cars, you know.”

    --

    Kip can't believe no one else can tell how outrageously gay Ilya Rozanov is, but he's not complaining, he's happy to have someone else to talk to at all the hockey functions.

    Or: Perfect gaydar haver Ilya Rozanov finally gets a taste of his own medicine. A series of looks into Kip and Ilya's friendship, starting after the cottage.

    Summary

    Sometimes life came at you with a clenched fist and Ilya had never figured out how to duck.

    So here he was, twenty-eight years old, single, dealing with the fallout from injuries given to him by the game he loved, and the second youngest assistant coach in the league to one of the worst teams. Stability was hard to come by, but he was managing.

    Then along came Shane Hollander to knock him on his ass, one more time.

    I love this Jackie/Ilya friendship. Including Hayden being a somewhat hapless and jealous husband in a way that checks out. And Ilya sharing about Shane without giving his name, which is my favorite thing.

    Hot like fire, and somehow the Robby/Whitaker of it all works - I like how it’s not this irresistible instantaneous attraction, it’s more like — we’ve had hot sex, we’ve had long days, you’re right here, why not? And then things develop from there.

    Summary

    Shane finds himself nodding, says “I know” before he can think further about it because Shane has never been good at reading people, and he wonders in that moment if Ilya is afflicted the same by this, the way they fuck.

    Afflicted by the questions that they never let out-

    How the fuck does it feel this fucking good?

    How does it feel this fucking good every time?

    Why is it you who does this to me?

    The worst one of all, Shane thinks, this is why I can’t stop doing it. It’s too fucking good.

    ***

    Somewhere in 2014-16, one of the times they fuck that we didn't see in the montage.

    The guy who showed up before service was some young guy in his early twenties, a gym rat with neatly coiffed blond hair.

    “Does an Italian DILF work here?” He motioned above Carmy’s hand with a flat hand. “Yea high, super blue eyes?”

    It took Carmy embarrassingly long to catch up. He just frowned, chugging until— Christ, he meant Richie. Carmy said the first thing that came to mind.

    “He’s Polish.”
