    Summary

    One evening, Shane and Ilya hear a knock on their door.
    Outside sits a plain brown box with no return address. Only one word written across the top in messy handwriting:

    Ilyushka.

    Inside, Ilya finds pieces of a life he thought he had lost forever.

    Summary

    “Just go.” Ilya said, already leaning again.

    Shane huffed a laugh against his mouth.

    “You’re literally the problem.”

    “Then stop kissing me back.”

    He didn’t.

     
    or, College AU where Shane and Ilya go to the same university, secretly sleep together, and are so obsessed with each other it’s starting to become a problem.

    Summary

    “If I gave Jackie a day of getting to have sex with me whenever she wants as a thank you for tidying the living room, I think she’d divorce me,” Hayden says.

    “Nah, man, she’d kill you,” J. J. says, which is probably true.

    Shane shrugs. “That sounds like a straight people problem.”

    Hayden is truly glad that the times of Shane torturing himself by being in the closet are over. But. Well. This conversation is kind of making him miss those days.

    ---

    Finally, after everything, Shane is a happily married man. Incredibly happily married. It only becomes a problem once he thinks it qualifies him to dispense relationship advice.

    Or, five times Shane gives relationship advice his friends disagree with, and one time he doesn’t.

    Summary

    Summary

    It was like watching ants in those transparent tunneled habitats: the intricate, horny communication rituals of the modern queer hockey player.

    Or, five or so times Mikhail Popov (award-winning goaltender and gay fairy godmother) nudged Shane Hollander (his best goalie friend) and Ilya Rozanov (annoying hot guy he tolerates) toward their happily ever after, and the one time they finally chose it for themselves.

    Summary

    Rozanov offers a hand to shake. “A pleasure to meet you.”

    “Likewise,” JJ says evenly as he shakes Rozanov’s god damn hand cordially.

    “Nice to meet you,” Hayden grits out less than politely.

    “Well,” Rozanov drawls, making himself comfortable on one of the loveseats Shane somehow has. He cracks open the single can of Coke. “At least you will not need to hide my body, yes?"

    “You’re on thin ice, Rozanov,” Hayden says gruffly.

    Rozanov ignores him, turning to JJ. “My favourite player is Shane Hollander after all.” He winks, taking a swig of his can.

    They can get along, JJ thinks.

    Summary

    There are certain benefits to being the captain of the university hockey team, Shane decides.

    The first being that he’s friends with the staff. Well, it helps that he comes in early, but Shane also has a genuine interest in how ice rinks are built for sports like his.

    Which brings him to the most important perk of being captain: ice access.

    Which leads him to his current situation: smuggling Ilya Rozanov into the on-campus rink.

    Or, Shane takes Ilya on a not-date at McGill's on-campus rink. It's a not-date, he swears!!

    Summary

    They’ve got pretty good seats, Shane notes as they take their seats.

    All the better to see Rozanov slammed against the boards, he tells himself.

    His resolve lasts exactly a minute before the Raiders are out on the ice for warm-up. He can’t help the way his eyes zero in on 81. Can’t help the way he tracks Rozanov across the ice.

    Shane watches as Rozanov pauses and then skates around as if looking for something in the crowd. The Russian skates past Shane’s section and backtracks, eyes immediately finding Shane’s. He shoots Shane a sloppy salute and a cocky smile before skating away.

    Fuck.

    ---

    In which Shane is a nerdy college hockey player (with a special interest in loons) and Ilya is still a Boston Raider. One would think this would make their years-long situationship easier. It does not.

    Or, 5 times Shane watches Ilya’s games, 1 time Ilya watches Shane. The Hollanov situationship re-heated until feelings get involved. Oh no!

    Summary

    “See you at the draft,” Rozanov smirks.

    “Uh,” says Shane. “Maybe?”

    Rozanov whips his head back to look incredulously at his new Canadian rival, only to meet the back of a black helmet as they’re both swept away by the handshake line.

    What the fuck?

    Summary

    “We can’t be seen together,” Shane hisses. A bottle girl parades a flaming champagne bottle above their heads and sidles between them, blocking Ilya’s wide, frantic eyes for a moment.

    Ilya crosses his arms, his voice breathy. “You know, if you wanted to be treated like shit, Hollander, you should have just said.”

    Shane freezes. “My relationship is none of your business.”

    “Really?” Ilya questions. A vein pops out of his neck, a greenish wire that looks purple under the strobe lights. “I saw it. She hit you.”

    ----

    Where, months after Shane's post-tuna melt panic, Shane and Ilya lock eyes across the dancefloor - only this time, Shane’s “new girlfriend” isn’t Rose, and she’s nowhere near as kind.

    “Hollander,” Ilya urges, voice deceptively level. “Who did this to you?”

    ----

    Shane stumbles back to his apartment, bruised and battered, after a grueling night of patrolling Montreal as Spider-Man. He finds Ilya waiting for him on his bed, shirtless and cocky and woefully uncaring that Shane warned him not to come by tonight.

    Lying to the world is one thing. Lying to Ilya, the one person he truly trusts, is another.

    Summary

    After Russia crashes and burns at the Olympics, six months pass where Ilya cuts Shane out completely, refusing to answer his texts. So when they both get booked for yet another ad campaign, Shane arrives on set with a strict plan to ignore Ilya entirely.

    But then he learns the premise of the entire campaign: making fun of Ilya’s English.

    It will take a lot for Shane to forgive him, sure. It won’t take nearly as much for Shane to stand up for him.
