Summary
Ilya Rozanov is having a very good night. He’s scored a goal, his edges are perfect, and his chirping of the Vegas Golden Knights’ roster is reaching art-form levels of arrogance. But hockey is a game of physics and ruts in the ice, and it only takes one meaningless check in the third period for Ilya’s season to shatter in a single, sickening crack.
Three hundred miles away, Shane Hollander is forced to watch the replay in a silent equipment room.
When Shane finally breaks and calls Boston forward Cliff Marlow, he expects to be met with confusion or hostility. Instead, he finds that the Boston Bears have been keeping a secret for years— and Shane starts to realize the differences between Montreal and Boston span further than he was ever ready for.
What follows is meddling teammates who insist on doing laundry, PT that involves more sitting and standing reps than really feels necessary, and a boyfriend who is one research paper away from a medical degree. Plus, so much kale.
Or: The one where Ilya breaks his leg, the Bears decide they love Shane Hollander, and everyone argues over who gets to be who in NHL 18.

Summary
“I’m sorry I’m not him,” Shane says, looking away.
“Who?”
“Future me. Whoever you fell in love with.” What’s unsaid hangs in the air: whoever fell in love with you. Because this Shane – 2010 Shane – doesn’t love him. Is amused by their daily lessons, comforted by his presence, even grateful. But love?
“That’s the thing, Shane,” Ilya says. His eyes are shining. “You are, right now, exactly who I fell in love with.”
In 2031, Shane wakes up in the hospital certain that it's 2010. Ilya is there to remind him of the two decades he's missed and the life they've built along the way.

Summary
“Good, well then that brings me to the real topic of conversation.” Another sigh from Coach Wiebe, “As I’m sure you’ve already guessed, those highlighted names have been offered rookie contracts and they’ve each expressed interest in living with a vet for their first year.”
Ilya felt his heart fall into his stomach, afraid of the next words to come out of his Coach’s mouth.
“We asked the rookies who they’d like to live with and, well, LaPointe wanted to board with you, Chouinard. And Young with you, Bood,” Wiebe then turned to Ilya who had frozen on the spot, “And Roz, Haas wants to live with you.”
Bood and Chouinard chuckled as they watched Ilya’s eyes widen in horror.
OR
Luca Haas was drafted 2nd overall by the Ottawa Centaurs in 2018. Two years later, he anxiously moved halfway across the world to play his rookie season with the team. He requested to live with Ilya Rozanov and they slowly became family.

Summary
It seemed that Kronos, essentially, was a sore loser.
"By the gods, what are you wearing, boy?" the man inquired, taking a step closer to Percy.
Feeling increasingly uncomfortable, Percy instinctively took a step back, causing the man to chuckle. The sound sent shivers down Percy's spine. "Now, now. Don't be afraid, boy. I'm simply curious as to why you're dressed so strangely," the man remarked, tilting his head. "And why I've received reports of a boy appearing in our streets, unrecognized by anyone." There was distrust in his voice. Percy wanted to groan, did everyone think he was some type of spy?
___________________________________Join Percy on his journey through time, thrown into the era of the Trojan War. Being accused as a spy, dealing with two annoyingly ancient beautiful Greek heroes watching his every move.
Watch as the Demigods from his time deal with the fact their leader has up and disappeared after fighting Kronos.
And how the gods are dealing with these newfound memories of heroes from the Trojan War they don’t ever remember meeting. Who has an uncanny resemblance to the hero who just went missing?
(y'all don't plagiarise this??? I feel like that is very obvious?)

Summary
The older man raised an eyebrow. "My brother seems to think you are a god.”
"And you don't?” Percy asked, tilting his head.
Sure, Hazel had once told him that she had only helped him the first time they met because she had feared he was a vengeful god who would have killed her on the spot otherwise. He had thought, of course, that she was only joking.
The man took a minute to answer. "You have the eyes of a god. I feel the urge to submit to you as I would to a god. You have the requisite reverent aura of a divine executioner. But- your smile is still too human.”
-
Percy, Nico and Will are thrown into the time of the Trojan War, and each of them experiences a side of Ancient Greece that changes their view of those they call father.
Meanwhile, the one who sent them there hopes to turn the demigods against the gods. How could they eventually not hate them when they witness the immortals at the height of their power?

Summary
“So let me get this straight,” Arthur said, folding his fingers together as the man in front him awkwardly shifted. “You are under the impression if you win the favor of my servant that you will then win my favor?” he asked and the nobleman shifted again.
“Well, sire,” he said “That is the common consensus among… the chatter.”
“The chatter,” Arthur repeated and his mind flashed to all the kindness Merlin had received from other nobles. Dear God.
Or
Merlin has all of Camelot (and neighboring kingdoms) wrapped around his finger and Arthur is beginning to resign himself to the fact his servant somehow has more power than he does.

Summary
After drinking something he wasn't supposed to, Arthur's demeanor regarding his manservant Merlin has entirely changed, leaving everyone to believe he had been snuck a love potion. But when it seems to be something else, a potion that amplifies existing feelings to an almost obsessive state, the only way to pull him back is for him to willingly participate in the spell needed to save him. What is Merlin to do when Arthur won't let him out of his sight and there are no other willing sorcerers within the kingdom?

Summary
After Arthur disobeyed his father and retrieved the Mortaeus flower for Merlin's cure, Arthur's frantic pleading to save Merlin led to a misunderstanding that actually convinced Uther to take the flower to Gaius.
Now all Arthur has to do is explain to Merlin why Uther thinks they are lovers.
And while Uther is supportive of the relationship, he requires it kept secret. But in his paranoia, Uther misinterprets every innocent interaction between the two as something far more intimate, to the embarrassment of everyone involved.
And then the knights begin showing up...

Summary
Arthur gave Merlin his cloak thinking only of the warmth it would offer in a snowstorm. He never thought his manservant may be mistaken for him and snatched by bandits. Nor did he expect his dashing rescue of Merlin to turn his world so utterly on his head.
Because the bandits hadn't kidnapped a prince. They'd snatched a sorcerer, and now captivity is the least of anyone's problems.
A golden age awaits, but can they claim it together, or are they doomed to fail?
