Summary
Ilya's co-worker, Kendall, has been harping on about his incredible boyfriend, Shane, for months now. It's both annoying and endearing, hearing him talk about finally finding 'the one' after so many failed relationships. Ilya doesn't mind though. In fact, he's happy for him, and he always loves to tease Kendall about his newfound love—after all, Kendall's boyfriend sounded so boring.
That is, until he finally meets Shane at an office Christmas party.
Suddenly, Ilya can't stop thinking about him.
(or Ilya slowly finds himself falling in love with his co-worker's boring boyfriend)

Summary
Again, Ilya feels the shame flare in his belly. He imagines his father across the counter from them, watching this unfold. Watching Ilya be babied by his fucking boyfriend over an injury. He remembered how he’d yell at his mother for babying Ilya, the word soft being thrown around a lot.
But Ilya likes being babied. He likes watching Shane fuss and frown as he portions out the pills, filling a glass with Ilya’s favorite juice to wash them down with, then bustling up and back down the stairs with Ilya’s favorite pillow and the sleep mask he keeps in his travel bag for planes and hotels.
He is soft. Weak too, probably. His father’s voice spits through his thoughts, sharp and disgusted. Ilya feels them settle on his shoulders, tug at his spine.
“You okay?” Shane asks, hair messy from the shower, Ilya’s pillow against his chest.
His father’s voice fades.
“Yes, moya lyubov. I am okay.”

Summary
He can’t tell Ilya though. He can’t tell Ilya that his team might not be right for Shane. That this perfect solution is making Shane a worse hockey player, a bad teammate.
That maybe Shane Hollander of the Voyagers really was his full name. That Shane Hollander of the Centaurs might not exist.
He can’t say that. He can’t ruin everything. He can’t dim the shine in Ilya’s eyes, the bounce in his step, the color in his cheeks he didn’t have the last few years.
Ilya sacrificed hockey for their relationship for two years, played on a crappy team and watched Shane win. It’s Shane’s turn to sacrifice, to figure out how to make this work and let Ilya lead this time.
Or:
Transitions are hard for Shane. Joining his husband's team turns out not to be an exception to that rule.

Summary
Ilya wasn’t trying to kill himself that night. Suicide is something that belongs to his mother- he’s just lazy, and he wishes Shane would stop making excuses for him.
Shane has everything under control. His body is a tool, the one that’s given him both his career and his relationship, and he wishes Ilya would stop prying into the way he maintains it.
or: Ilya learns a whole lot more about his mother, Shane remembers a whole lot more about his childhood, and they both get diagnosed.

Doing The Work by bomberqueen17, sassaffrassa
Fandom Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Game Changers | Heated Rivalry - All Media Types, Heated Rivalry (TV)
03 Jun 2026
Summary
Heated Rivalry fics, a mix of showverse and bookverse but showverse somewhat favored (no shade, I just love the work they did in the adaptation). In my usual fashion, I find sticking to canon as much as possible to be a fun challenge, I try hard with timelines and weird canon details and things, but I ultimately try to serve the characters most of all. I do tend to make people too nice to each other but I try to keep emotions vaguely plausibly-realistic.
Stories aren't in a sequence but I have also, because this is how I am as a person, largely tried to make them in continuity with one another.- Words:

Summary
His mother’s eyes darken with weariness Shane recognizes instinctually, a grief separate but not wholly unlike his own. A tear makes its way down her cheek, but Shane’s stay put, stubborn, cradled in his lashline like if he doesn’t cry, maybe none of this is as bad as he thinks it is.
“Just—I just have to ask,” she says. Her voice lowers to a whisper, that ever-steady corner of her mouth wavering as her palm envelopes his cheek. “How long have you been hurting?”
My whole life, probably, Shane thinks. I'm sorry. I just didn’t know.
--
[Or: Shane learns that skill, passion, and meticulous control aren't necessarily immunity, and that rest isn't something he's owed so much as he has to carve out for himself; sometimes with a whisper, sometimes with his pride on the line, sometimes on his hands and knees. And still, regardless, despite—he refuses to give up on this either, even if this time it means believing in himself instead of familiar schedules or rituals. Even if it means his whole life has to change to do it.
Even if it means having to believe that he's worth that much in the first place.]

Summary
A series of canon-compliant Hollanov oneshots that (mostly) take place post The Long Game. Mostly lighthearted, with a variety of different stories from both Shane and Ilya's POV. They all take place in the same universe; however they all are written to work as standalones. Read them in any order you like. They are ordered in chronological order. Posted order is as follows:
1. Plentiful, but Ultimately Finite/Another Home (Another Home is a PBUF rewrite)
2. Absolutely Not
3. A Full Night's Rest
4. Newlywed Games
5. The Other Side of the Road
6. One Unending Fight
7. Shots
8. Invisible String

Just a Habit by mar1p0sa_papp1l0n

Summary
It wasn’t like he had to throw up, Ilya reasoned. It was just a bad habit, and he quit those all the time. But he was leaving the cottage in two days, and the thought of packing up this life with Shane into his carry-on and flying back to Boston alone was tying him in knots. He was just stressed, and vomiting made him feel lighter. He didn’t need to, though.
Or, a study of Ilya's recklessness and unhealthy coping as a foil to Shane's ED-coded behaviors, where he has his own disordered habits. He has it under control, until he doesn't. This work is fully finished, just updating as I edit :)

Summary
Later, he’ll blame it all on a momentary lapse of judgement.
He’ll blame it on the loneliness maybe—on the fact that, despite never having been physically closer to Shane this consistently in his entire life—that despite regularly getting dinner with Shane’s parents—that despite finally having found what he’d spend his entire life searching for he’s also, somehow, never felt more alone.
He’ll blame it on Cliff not texting him back since he’d signed with Ottawa. He’ll blame it on Sveta, face pulled into a perpetual frown during every facetime call.
Or maybe he’ll blame it on Anya—sweet, beautiful Anya—who’d been just a little too cute not to share.

If it wasn't for that meddling kid by ARustySpork for TastyTeeth

Summary
“I feel really good about this kid, I think he could be great on your wing, he just needs some help settling in. Someone to show him the ropes.”
“Yes.”
The line went silent for a moment. Ilya wasn’t really sure why his coach felt the need to run this by him.
“Rozanov,” his coach said at last. “I want him to live with you.”
Ilya blinked, then nearly shouted into the phone. “What?”
* * *
or, Ilya stays in Boston, gets a rookie, and tries to figure out how to make a secret long distance relationship work while there's a Russian teenager in his house

Summary
It’s dark, and Ilya’s not quite sure where he is.
His entire body is numb. His shoes are soaking wet from trudging lazily through the snow. His nose is running, and his lips are chapped.
Selfishly, he wishes Shane would fuss over him now. Pull him close, whisper “I forgive you” even though he shouldn’t, because Ilya would never change, because something inside him- in his family line, in his soul- was broken.
Ilya wondered how long ago it had clicked- when Shane had realized that Ilya wormed his way into this country and tricked the Hollanders into caring for him, then returned the favor by botching their language and leaving a trail of mess in his wake. He still can't help but wonder if that will be part of his punishment- being doomed to miss him in death, too.
or: Ilya’s mostly been able to cope with the fact that he’ll never be able to articulate himself fully in this country- but he’s also never been good at talking about feelings in the first place.
"I'm tired" is the best he's got. It definitely doesn't capture what's going on in his head, and Shane can't read minds.

It will take time, obviously, he thought, for Shane’s parents. Big shock, a big weird thing. Ilya would be very good to their son, and she would see it, and they’d figure out what to say to each other. A few years of proof. He could work.

“Did you like them? My parents?”
Ilya squints at him. “I love them,” he says simply, like it should be obvious. “They’re your parents.”
But, Shane thinks idly, there's a difference, isn't there, between loving them and liking them?
(5 times Shane thinks Ilya doesn't like his parents and 1 time he finds out the truth)

Summary
Anyway, he thought as he drove to the rink. We were never together, and we’re extra not together now. He would not be letting that man see every inch of him and carry him to bed from his shower floor. He would not let him kiss his earlobe, which he liked to do every time for some reason. He was certainly not going to let him scan every inch of his body anymore. So whether there was something under the surface, spilled out messy guts getting stains on everything, Ilya wouldn’t know about it.
