    Summary

    Three years into playing together at Ottawa, Shane and Ilya are invited to take part in a video for buzzfeed all designed around debunking the biggest theories surrounding them, their relationship and promising not to hold anything back. It's safe to say the hockey world will not be the same again.

    Or:

    SH: Hello, I’m Shane Hollander, the greatest hockey player of all time. 
    IR: And I’m Ilya Rozanov, the actual best player of all time. 
    SH: 5 cups to your 3.
    IR: 800 goals to your 750.
    SH: I could go into assists but we need to finish the intro so hello everyone!
    SH: We’re here with Buzzfeed who have given us conspiracy theories to look at.
    IR: We’re going to prove them all wrong.

    Summary

    The picture is leaked on a random fucking Tuesday in November, months after Ilya was last in Montreal.

    Grainy and dark, enhanced digitally to shit but still just recognisable enough; Shane Hollander smiling dopily as a broad-shouldered man in a dark hoodie has him pushed up against a red brick wall, one knee lifted to hook around the back of a thigh, a large hand possessively holding it in place as the hooded figure has his face hidden in the crook of Hollander’s neck — presumably kissing him there, intimately.

    Ilya knows his team is good, and they do the best they can.

    Summary

    When the idea is suggested to Harris, he dreads having to make the first one. It's tradition for the Captain of the team to do the guinea pig run of the social media trends they join.
    But Ilya is a loose canon on a good day.
    Giving him a mic might be giving him entirely too much power for Harris's sanity...and editing skills.

    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

    Ilya Rozanov is nothing if not determined to walk each of the million steps to the plan Shane has come up with to bring them to their much sought-after Happily Ever After. Unfortunately for him, his reputation precedes him, and it's harder to integrate to his new team than he thought it would be. Maybe it's him, maybe only one Canadian was born with the misfortune of being able to love him, or maybe, he hopes, he just needs to give it more time.

    or

    A series of misunderstandings, a bar fight, a trip to jail, and outing oneself under duress, all in the name of love.

    Featuring Luca Haas' attempts to meddle, a healthy dose of Russian diminutives, and of course, the Scott Hunter of it all.

    Summary

    The internet gets confirmation: Shane Hollander has a girlfriend. Called Lily.

    Ever considered how many Lilys there are in North America? Or how many people with parasocial delusions?

    Twitter is flooded with #findLily pretenders.


    @insomniac_bookworm42 | Did you learn Photoshop at one of those free “Computers for Senior Citizens” classes at the library?

    @insomniac_bookworm42 | If not, you should ask for a refund

    @preoccupied_educator | this is insulting to those of us who make weird self-insert clout chasing parasocial photoshopped pictures of ourselves with celebrities for a living

    Summary

    Shane rolls his eyes and spits onto the ice. “Gonna play a clean game, Rozanov?”

    Ilya laughs. “Unless you give me reason not to, Hollander.”

    “That’s pretty weak.”

    “Just like your backhand.”

    “Oh fuck off.”

    Ilya shakes his head, tutting. “Not good enough, Hollander, sorry. Want to try again?”

    Shane huffs. “Don’t have time, gonna be busy kicking your ass.”

    Ilya glances at the warm up timer, realizing belatedly that they actually only have a few more minutes. “Alright, fine. I will be expecting better during the game!”

    “Expect whatever you want, Rozanov.” Shane pauses. “Except for winning. You’re not getting that.”

    “Ooh, good one! Keep ‘em coming!”

    -

    In which Shane and Ilya are mic'd up during a Voyagers v Centaurs game. They get into a chirp-off. That's is.

    Based off of a post by littlespoonevan that basically said "What if Ilya changed the narrative by rage baiting the press" (I'll try to post a screenshot don't worry).

    That's really it.

    “No, Wiebe. Find someone else to babysit the infant. Is not my job, and not my problem.”
    Ilya froze.
    Standing in the half-open doorway was said infant, paperwork clutched in his hands.

    Or: ilya rozanov accidentally adopts a rookie and has to figure out how to let someone in without falling apart, and maybe even how to believe they will stay.

    Summary

    What the fuck.

    Soap brings his hand closer to his face, squinting hard. Making his already pounding headache worse. This isn’t real. Has to be a prank. For some reason, Gaz must’ve sneaked in here. Funny guy.

    He’s heard—even seen it, once—the stories. It’s rare, but real, or at least an elaborate hoax, spanning countries and hundreds of years.

    People brought together, Fate intervening. Everyone is supposed to have one, a red thread leading and binding them to the person they’re supposed to spend their life with, though Soap isn’t sure how true that is. No one falls in love once. But it’s not just for love, as he heard it. Maybe this is that. He’s not in love with Ghost. Wants him, sure, crushing…not something he wants to admit to in the cold light of day, but okay.

    It’s not love.

    Summary

    After launching the Irina Foundation in the fall of 2018, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov seek to affirm their newly-announced friendship and get people used to the idea that there’s more to their shared history than is commonly known. They decide that they’ll reveal new details about noteworthy moments in their shared past on the 10th anniversaries of those events.

    Chapter 1: first meeting (Dec 2018)
    Chapter 2: draft day (Jun 2019)
    Chapter 3: CCM Shoot (Jul 2020)
    Chapter 4: First NHL Face Off (Oct 2020)

    (Or: 5 times Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov tweet about a 10th anniversary before the public knows about their relationship, and 1 time they tweet about a 10th anniversary after being involuntarily outted).

    Summary

    “Point is, nobody was innocent in this situation except for you, Shane. I need to know you know that.”

    Shane makes an awful little noise. It punches right through Ilya like it were sharp and deadly.

    “I hardly feel innocent,” he complains. “The damage is done, my life is basically over.”

    Ilya taps his foot with his and moves in towards him, not touching but making his presence known.

    “It’s not.” Ilya tells him leaning in closer towards where his head was still slumped against the table. “It feels like it is right now but just wait until there’s another player with another stupid scandal, another stupid story to press and soon enough, this will blow over, hm?”

    Shane takes a minute before he lifts his head, eyes puffy and red despite Ilya not having watched a singular tear escape them.

    “Well until another player gets caught with another man’s dick down his throat I think we can agree this is pretty fucking bad.”

    Ilya swallows hard. He’d never say it out loud for Shane’s sake but yeah, this was looking like it was indeed, in his words, pretty fucking bad.

    Summary

    Farah, Shane, and his mom have a statement drafted by the end of the first period of the Boston v. Toronto game. By the time the Raiders are done showering and are pulled for post-game press, everyone with even a passing interest in professional hockey knows that Shane Hollander is an Unrestricted Free Agent looking for a new team.

    Shane watched live as Ilya blinked stupidly, took a few seconds to process, and then quickly answered into the mic. This interview would gain millions of views over the coming months and would be cited as the source of the most chaotic social media rollercoaster the MLH ever had.

    No one knew it then, but the Great MLH Seduction had officially begun.

    *****

    Or: Ilya stays with the Boston Raiders instead of trading to Ottawa. This causes quite a few ripples when Shane finally ends his contract with Montreal.

    Featuring: the Hollander Family's Spreadsheets(TM), professional hockey culture shifts, and a tasteful amount of fraud against the MLH.
