    Summary

    “Can you wait outside for a sec?!” Shane demands, feeling his face flush. 

    Ilya looks down at him, furrowing his eyebrows in confusion. “Everything okay?” 

    “Yes, but I’m on the toilet, Ilya.” Shane frowns at him. He’s holding it now because it feels awkward to keep peeing while Ilya is literally making eye contact with him. 

    “Is no problem,” Ilya says with a very slavic shrug and wide gesture, then turns to grab his toothbrush. 

    “It’s a problem for me!” Shane protests.

    A tale of intimacy between Shane and Ilya, as told through different bodily fluids.

    Summary

    Nick and Selena are the first to fall victim to the retirement curse. Six months after Chewy hangs up on his skates, he shows up to the weekly Old Fucks Monks Meetup with a hangdog expression. “She filed yesterday,” he tells them.

    Shane is appropriately sympathetic in the group, jumping up to grab another round whenever Chewy’s bottle gets low, making vague but good-sounding noises whenever Chewy says something depressing, but Ilya knows that gleam in his eyes.

    "Out with it," Ilya says, once they're safely ensconced in the dark interior of Shane's car.

    “I can’t believe they’re giving in,” Shane says, a touch of glee in his voice.

    -

    Or: near the end of Shane and Ilya's careers, an epidemic of divorces sweeps the Centaurs.

    Summary

    “Is just the new routine, okay?” Ilya pleaded, his voice breaking. “The pills were working and now there is more stress so I just need to get used to it and will be fixed, okay?”

    “How bad is it?”

    “Shane, please.”

    “Ilya, you promised no more secrets, no more hiding. How bad?”

    He covered his face in his palms, his elbows resting on his knees, and took in a shuddered breath. “...bad.”

     

    OR

     

    After Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander get married, Ilya discovers that his depression won't magically disappear just because he finally has love and a real family. He gets to live and work with Shane full time now that they are on the Centaurs, but it's becomingly increasingly difficult to hide his deteriorating mental health from his husband. He's haunted by dreams of his mother and the fear that his depression and the hockey world's eruption about their relationship is ruining Shane's life. He has to swallow his pride and begin taking SSRIs, navigate the side effects of medicating his depression, and learn to accept love and support from those he loves most. Will the shame eat him alive or can he finally learn that he's worthy of love even at his lowest?

    Summary

    November, 1985

    "You have a light?"

    David Hollander looks up from rummaging in his hockey bag and sees the most beautiful woman he has ever laid eyes on with an unlit cigarette between her fingers. Her long black hair is tied up in a ponytail but her bangs frame her face, which is golden tan against her white turtleneck. She arches an eyebrow after a moment and he realizes he's been staring with his mouth hanging open. "I… no, sorry. I don't smoke."

    "Ugh. Athletes," she sighs, putting her cigarette back into the pack. She leans back against the brick, her breath visible in the cold air. She surveys him with eyes the colour of coffee and he has never been more awake in his life. "You're Hollander, right? Left winger?"

    "That's me, yeah. You a big hockey fan?"

    "The biggest." Her mouth curves up into a smile. David feels like he's been jolted into the boards.

    Summary

    Ilya could remember how his father had stared at him a little too knowingly, as the gossip spread about Sergey running off with another man.

    If either of you ever did that, he’d said, while Alexei smoked by the open window, I’d shoot you dead.

    And Ilya had always been Grigori’s biggest inconvenience, so it only seemed fitting that his father would have to kill him twice over. After all, Ilya would one day dedicate his first death to Shane Hollander in their wedding vows.

    A study of Ilya Rozanov and a lifetime surrounded by men.

    Summary

    After the death of his father, Ilya Rozanov cut ties with his remaining family in Russia. Ten years later, his niece comes to Canada for school.

    Ilya has walked many a gauntlet: loss and abuse in his family, nearly two decades playing a violent sport at the highest level, a forbidden love affair and shocking public outing. Now he meets a new foe: the withering sneer of a thirteen-year-old girl.

    Summary

    "Why are you not scared?"

    "I am scared," Ilya admits. "I just am tired. Of hiding me. Of hiding you. Of hiding how much I love you. I want to go to the rink— how do you say it? Authenti."

    "Authentically," Shane supplies, automatically.

    "Yes. Authentically. I want to go to the rink authentically, as me," Ilya confirms.

    Ilya looks at Shane, pauses until Shane meets his eyes. "I want to say: I, Ilya Rozanov, love a man, and that man's name is Shane Hollander."

    Or, sometimes it takes a little more time, and some courage, to be with the one you love.

    Summary

    "You're disappointed in me," Ilya says when the silence drags on too long.

    It snaps Irina out of her thoughts. No, she wants to say, you're my perfect boy, though she knows she shouldn't. She can't bring herself to say yes either. "You're my son," Irina says. "I love you."

    "I'm sorry, Mama," he says, voice small, smaller than Irina has heard in years. He sounds like a child again, five and besieged by nightmares of a snowstorm, begging for reassurances than their house won't be buried under an insurmountable blanket of white, that she would find him and hold him even if it was.

    "It's not my apology to accept, Ilyusha," she says instead.

    (Irina Rozanova lives! It doesn't fix Ilya.)

    Summary

    “I was trying to be cool about it.” Shane's confession is a quiet whine, muffled into his palms. “Go with the flow, y’know?”

    It’s almost unbearable, how much Ilya adores this perfect, neurotic man. “Hollander,” he says patiently. “You have never once gone with flow. Not ever in your life.”

    There is only one grey cloud in the perfect blue sky of Ilya’s summer.

    His two weeks at the cottage are almost over, and Shane still hasn’t asked him to stay.

    Summary

    Svetlana could give Ilya everything Shane could not.

    She shared his language, his culture, and knew what it was like living in Russia–she didn’t have to try and learn Russian in secret so if Ilya wanted to just talk freely with her he could. She’d known Ilya his whole life, known his father and brother and, most importantly, his mother–the most precious person to Ilya. She could date Ilya, in public, and it wouldn’t cause a scandal–Ilya wouldn’t have to sacrifice his country to be with her or have to secure citizenship somewhere safe just so that if people found out he wouldn’t get arrested. She could stay with Ilya during the hockey season and share his space–she could get groceries with him and argue with him in the produce aisle about what to make for dinner that week. She could love Ilya, freely, and Shane could not.

    In the end it was not about Ilya or even Svetlana at all really. It was about what Shane could not be, what he could not give, to the person he loved most.

    OR: Shane and Svetlana meet for the first time and Shane battles with his insecurities.

    Summary

    Ilya liked Shane’s parents. He really did. David and Yuna Hollander were entirely devoted to their only child–maybe sometimes a bit intense, if not a little overbearing, in Yuna’s case–and their attentiveness had moulded him into a kind, hardworking, and thoughtful man. Truly, their son was a testament to the quality of both their character’s–Shane’s soft underbelly nurtured by his father’s patient tone and earnest gaze and his shrewdness and talent sharpened by his mother’s fierce mettle. Shane was the sum of his parent’s parts, yet entirely his own, and Ilya was very grateful to the tender, yet firm, hands that had shaped the man he loved. But right now, well, right now Ilya was not their biggest fan.

    Jane:
    My parents are going to be staying at my place after the game on Friday.

    Ilya missed Shane. Ilya really needed to have sex with Shane. Now the man's parents were in the way.

    Or: Ilya is finally seeing Shane for the first time since their summer at the cottage but Shane's parents crash their first evening alone in weeks. Set during that agonising final season Ilya plays for Boston.
