Summary
Behind him, the sound of the slamming train doors reminds him that he’s made his decision. The train is leaving the station, and with it, the chance to turn around and go home to Downton. Pretend like this has all been a bad dream, and he can wake up from it by wishing really, really hard.

Summary
Richard,
I’m sorry to have to write to you, but I have bad news. His lordship has made last minute plans to have guests over this Christmas after all. I know I said I’d be able to get the week off, but that was because the family had no plans. His lordship has been very nice about it, he’s said I can have the time later next year, but I won’t be able to visit you in London.
Thomas

Hockey Things You Might Want To Know If You're Writing Heated Rivalry Fic and You Don't Already Know Hockey by circ_bamboo

Summary
This is not fic! This is meta about the basics of hockey that might be useful if you're coming from absolute zero but you like some gay hockey boys.
(Originally I posted it on tumblr but I was asked to cross-post to AO3 for accessibility.)

A Guide to the NHL/MLH: Everything But the Hockey by facingthenorthwind (spacegandalf), SiladhielLithvirax

Summary
What the hell is a "free agent" and why is Ilya Rozanov one at the end of Heated Rivalry? Would Cliff be suspended for that hit on Shane? How many times a season do Montreal and Boston play each other? How is the order of draft picks determined? How do hockey trades work?
All this and more is answered in this guide to how the NHL (and thus maybe the MLH) works! This isn't about the rules of playing hockey, but instead the rules of the league itself. Even the boring bits can become great prompts for fic if you believe in yourself!
If you're writing Hockey RPF, this guide makes sure to point out where the NHL and the fictional book series/show differs, so it still works as a simplified guide for that too!

Summary
After his Boxing Day fight with Ilya, Shane has a game plan to fix everything. He will come out as Ilya’s boyfriend to a few people, get himself used to the idea that everyone won’t hate him for it, and then think about telling more.
Rose even has the perfect group in mind for Shane. After all, they were so kind when she and Shane were dating.
Shane really isn’t prepared to enter his WAG era, but for Ilya’s sake, he will try.

Summary
In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in room 1410, nothing goes wrong, and everything plays out exactly as we know it.
In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in before Ilya can leave—and the seven-year situationship never gets the chance to start. Instead, through the power of miscommunication, Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010. With better support, they make better decisions. Their rivalry fizzles out before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced instead by a beloved “bromance". In 2015, they come out to the NHL and the world.
No one believes them.
Or: Somehow, despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s horror.

Summary
Retirement was supposed to be easy.
For former NHL stars Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander, life after hockey means quiet mornings, a stable marriage, and finally getting to enjoy the future they waited so long for. It's just, there may be something missing.
Then they're asked to billet Charlie Knight, a seventeen-year-old prospect with talent to spare and a lot to prove.
As Charlie chases his hockey dreams, Shane and Ilya have to balance their relationship, mentoring the new generation, and becoming overnight fathers.
NOTE: Explicit Hollanov. No romantic or sexual relationship involving Charlie; his relationship with Shane and Ilya is entirely parental and mentor-based.
Mixed POVs.
