    Summary

    Harris hadn’t meant to say anything. He hadn’t even realized what he’d said, honestly, until Ilya’s reaction: choking on his beer, eyes bugging out, looking more nervous than Harris had ever seen him look.

    Why couldn’t he have just kept his mouth shut? He was tipsy, and probably a bit too comfortable, but still. He should have known better. He felt like the biggest asshole alive.

    Hold on. Rewind. Start from the beginning.

    Or:

    Five times Ilya Rozanov set off Harris Drover's gaydar (and Harris said nothing), + one time Harris completely put his foot in it

    Summary

    “Is just a thing I do to help him,” he said quietly. Troy cocked his head.

    “What do you mean?”

    Ilya sighed, glancing around to make sure that Shane and everyone else were out of earshot.

    “He gets… quiet sometimes. Can’t talk. When I see he’s getting like that…” Ilya looked up and pressed his lips into a line for a moment before continuing. “He feels good when he helps me. So sometimes, I maybe pretend to need more help.”

    ---

    Troy knows that Ilya knows much more English than he was pretending to earlier that night. He suspects that it had something to do with Shane. After all, most things that Ilya Rozanov does have something to do with Shane Hollander.

    Summary

    “Yes, yes, was very brave. Only important thing Scott Hunter has ever done. Do not know why you need to bring this up every time,” Ilya grumbles. 
    “But when did you first kiss?” Luca asks.
    “Ah, my sweet innocent rookie. I love that you think this is all we did,” Ilya tells him. Shane hides his face in Ilya’s shoulder. “Your guess was close, Haasy. Shane and I, we met in hotel gym after draft. I gave him some of my water, because I am nice person and he did not bring any. Was very sexually charged.”
    “Ilya!” Shane complains, voice muffled by the fact that he’s still hiding in said man’s shoulder. 
    “What? Is true. But anyway, we first kissed,” Ilya emphasizes the word so that it’s very clear that was not all they did, “summer before our rookie season, after commercial shoot.”
    For a moment, there’s silence as everyone does the math and lets that sink in. Then: “2010?!?!?”

    Summary

    Hollander and Rozanov, Rozanov and Hollander — two names, linked together even before they had been drafted to their respective teams. If he had to be honest, David would have to admit that he had never really cared about this rivalry, at least not as much as Yuna. David hated Rozanov because everyone else did, not because of his own conviction.

    Seeing Rozanov in the waiting room — his body hunched over, drawn into himself, his hair disheveled and curls all over the place, skin pale and cheeks blotchy, his eyes red-rimmed and glassy with unshed tears — made David wish he'd paid more attention to the other man.

    OR

    A retelling of the famous hospital scene in episode 5 (David and Yuna find out about Shane and Ilya)
