Summary
Ilya has always liked it when he can reduce Shane into a whimpering, crying hypocrite. He can already hear in his head how smug Ilya would be later on; he said so himself, all that pestering Ilya about how dangerous his non-sensible sports car is, only to act like a cheap slut getting fondled in the passenger seat.

Summary
The thing about making your bed is that eventually, you’d have to sleep in it. The thing about making wishes is that at some point, you’d have to live in it. And the thing about Ilya, well, the thing about him is that he’s always going to want an out, isn’t he?

Summary
Shane spends all of Thursday in the state of a daydream, imagining what it would be like to finally have Ilya within the metaphorical arm's length, fully and without the restraint that he’d reserved for himself when they were much younger and he still wasn’t sure if Ilya even thought about him outside of their irregular hook-ups. Weekend dinners at his parents, date nights at his favorite restaurants in Ottawa, taking Ilya to skate at the Rideau skateway when it freezes over in the winter. Shane is so lost in his thoughts that when he sees his parents swaying in their kitchen late in the afternoon, all he could think about is him and Ilya in their image, sharing a life. And then he stubs his toe and gets an odd look from his mom for interrupting the moment.
He really has high hopes, is the thing. And Shane can always dream. He’s really good at doing that.
[Or, Shane and Ilya in brief moments between the cottage and moving to Ottawa]

Summary
In fifth grade science class Shane learned that a mouse would always return home no matter how terrifying home is, because it's home. He relays this fact to his mom the minute he steps out of school, their clasped hands swaying in between them. He remembers her laughing, and then he remembers her saying, "Of course they would, Shane. Where else could they possibly go?"

Summary
my collection of anonymously published hollanov fics
usual disclaimers:
1. i use NHL instead of MLH/MHL (cant ever rmmbr if the show uses MLH or MHL so i just use NHL), but i mostly just refer to it as the League
2. i use Stanley Cup (same reason as above)
3. i will mix book and show canon when it suits my narrative
4. i reuse themes a lot but the fics here are not connected unless they're published under a different collection
5. fics reference songs, poems, movies, tv shows, other literary stuff---talk to me about them
