    Celeste Navarro:
    PAUSE.
    BACK UP.
    Did Jackie add Ilya to our WAGs group chat?

    Hannah Wilson:
    Is this even allowed?
    It kinda feels illegal.
    No offense, Rozanov. It’s just that you play for the other team.

    Ilya Rozanov:
    Is that…
    How you say? Double meaning?

    Celeste Navarro:
    HA!

    ----

    Or the one where Ilya Rozanov has a minor crash out after learning Rose Landry is still in the Metros WAG Group Chat but he hasn't been added & now he must infiltrate the group because he is the ultimate wife.

    **This is a current crack fic WIP that accidentally developed a plot. I hope to have updates posted once a week-ish, but there is no publishing schedule.

    Summary

    “Can’t hang out tonight, Hayd. I have plans.”

    “Bullshit,” Hayden responds. “You never have plans.”

    Objectively, this used to be true. Nowadays Shane has many, many plans, between his nightly plans to look at Ilya’s penis through Skype and his various long-term plans laid out helpfully in his notebook, Canva (For Ilya’s sake. He is a visual learner), and more recently, Excel. Shane loves that excel sheet. He’s colour coded it.

     

    In 2017, Shane Hollander spirals and proposes to his boyfriend of 4 days (or 7 years, or 9 years, or not his boyfriend at all, depending on how you look at it), which leads to a lot of plans, weird theories in the Montreal Voyageur locker room, some Twitter drama, and Ilya Rozanov entering his WAG era.

    Summary

    A collection of Shane Hollander being a doting husband, since before they were married, from 2013 to 2021.

    ("You cheat," Ilya grumbled sleepily, goosebumps erupting all over his body as Shane softly scratched his back, his dull nails tenderly raking down his skin.

    "I know, baby," Shane replied amusedly. He pulled the blanket higher over Ilya, tucking it in below his ears and then returned to rubbing his back. "Sleepy, huh?" He asked, mirth in his voice, when Ilya yawned noisily.

    Shane's hand prevented Ilya from opening his eyes in protest, and he harrumphed. He didn't respond, didn't have the energy to pry open his mouth or even to think of a snarky response. He just pursed his lips to kiss Shane's pec, letting his touches lull him into sleep.

    "My sweet boy," Shane sighed quietly, as if not intending for Ilya to hear.)

    Summary

    After a moment, Hayden pulls back. Then he hands her the phone—Shane’s phone.

    “I grabbed this when I was getting his stuff and I saw, well.”

    He looks away from Yuna, briefly glances at David, then looks away from him too. There’s an oddly guilty look on his face that has Yuna suspicious at once.

    “Um, has Shane told you guys about Lily?”

    --

    AKA, Yuna and David find out about Lily, Shane’s... girlfriend?, while he's in the hospital. It's a while before they find out about Ilya.

    Featuring:
    - high Shane
    - Ilya angst
    - theories about who Lily could be
    - Yuna & "Lily" texting
    - identity shenanigans

    Summary

    “There’s information coming out that the Centaur’s plane crashed on its way to Tampa.”

    The entire world tilts on its axis.

    For a moment Shane feels like he’s being burned alive, and then in an instant it’s just bitter cold; there’s ice in his veins, his lungs, his heart. God, his heart. Is it still beating? He can’t tell. Surely not. Surely, if Ilya were - if he were gone, then Shane’s heart would have fallen still. There would be nothing left for it to beat for.
