    Summary

    Shane is in a post-game interview when his world stops.

    He’s just answered a question about Montreal’s offensive strategy going into the game. Clean passes, avoid penalties, draw defenders wide. It had worked and the Voyagers had beat Colorado soundly, 4-1. Shane had scored two of the goals and assisted on a third.

    Usually, Shane would be eager to boast about the win to Ilya. But ever since their fight- since Ilya told Shane to leave- winning feels hollow. Losing feels better, somehow. As if Shane deserves to lose after being so selfish. Ilya gave up everything for him- his home, his team, and to some extent- his happiness. Hockey. Ilya gave up hockey- good hockey- for Shane.

    A ripple goes through the room of reporters. Shane swears he hears the word ‘Ottawa’ and ‘crash’. But no one is paying attention to him anymore.

    “What’s going on?” he asks into the microphone, feeling strange at the role reversal. Usually, he’s the one being asked questions.

    No one answers. And this time he knows that he hears the word ‘Ottawa’ and ‘Centaurs’.

    ------------------------------------------

    Shane rushes to Ilya after the almost plane crash. Their secret is no longer a secret.

    Summary

    "He saw the corners of Ilya's lips curve up ever so slightly in that infuriating, tiny hint of a smile. “Goodbye, Shane Hollander.”

    Shane could only ogle as Ilya walked away. Fuck. His ass was fat. This was so bad.

    Shane Hollander, star athlete, D1 hockey team captain, campus heartthrob, was being completely undone by a brooding Slavic art major that he would probably crawl on his fucking knees and bark for."

    --

    Shane is ready for another boring semester where he has to pretend like he cares about anything other than hockey. Until he sits down next to a mysterious Russian art student who also happens to be the hottest guy Shane has ever seen.

    Summary

    The first thing Ilya Rozanov felt was a headache the size of Massachusetts.

    Seriously, his head was pounding so badly behind his eyes that the moment he tried to sit up in bed, a violent wave of nausea nearly made him throw up. He immediately dropped his head into his hands, elbows braced against his knees while he forced himself to breathe slowly through it.

    Jesus Christ.

    What the hell did he drink last night?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    (21) fucking hell this is delightful, there’s just so much to enjoy, Shane and Rose’s platonic soulmate supremacy as they dominate the figure skating world while being Harvard students and part-time models, Ilya and Shane in the most beautiful, trust filled, deeply adoring and devoted relationship where they honestly communicate with one another from the beginning is everything to me, also the social media interludes of hockey and figure skating fans co-existing happily as both groups fall in love with each sport and deeply appreciate the techniques and mastery needed for both while also dying over the over-achieving chaotic trio of menaces, I just love this so much and I’m so glad that this started from Shane finding Ilya in a dark place and helped give him the resources and push to break him free from his abusive shitty family and start living happily rather than just surviving
    (24) I love big brother Cliff so much, especially with him joining this little found family and supporting both Shane & Ilya after the horrible accident the German skaters went through, I think if Ilya wasn’t allowed to terrorize Scott in some format he would just perish, and the joined fanbase of hockey and figure skaters continues to be one of my fave things about this fic
    (25) fuck I didn’t know I needed a Yakov pov but I’m so thankful for it, this was so heart warming and delightfully done, like ouch in the best way: Chapter 25

    Summary

    "You signed with the LA Kings?" she demanded. "What were you thinking? You know the plan. We'd go to the draft, get first pick, and go to Montreal."

    "What are you even talking about?" Shane shot back. "If I got first pick, I'd go to Boston, not Montreal. And I don't even want to go to Montreal."

    "Why?" Mom asked immediately. "They're one of the best teams in the league. One of the Original Six."

    Something inside him snapped, and before he even realized it, he switched to Japanese.

    "I don't know," he said, his voice tight. "Maybe because they're full of racists and homophobes. Do you even understand what I'm saying? Or have you become so white you forgot your own language?"

    Bookmarker's Notes

    (14) I guess it’s official that I love all the hollanov this author writes cause this is also fucking brilliant, LA fits Shane delightfully well and I love that so much for this Shane especially with him having much closer ties to his Japanese heritage in this, I adore how healthy/accepting/friendly this LA team feels especially with Ryan, Bood, and Wyatt alongside Shane, Hollywood is one of my fave nicknames, Shane with self-confidence in regards to his sexuality is refreshing, Shane and Rose friendship always gives me life, Yuna finding her way back to her culture with David right besides her and starting to mend their relationship with Shane is so healing, Rose + Lisa + Farah = the epic partnership I didn’t know I needed, yesss give my goalie all the sponsorships, love that being on different sides of the country is still not enough distance for Hollanov to forget each other, Ilya yearning for routines/mundanity/boring stability is catnip to me, Obaachan took one look at Ilya and immediately decided to adopt him as her grandson with Ojisan smartly agreeing as he teaches Ilya about gardening, yesssss sexy grinding in a gay bar where it’s safe for them to be together, Shane on a mission to seduce his man through tequila body shots is perfection, every socmed chapter from this author is a gift, all hail his majesty and his loyal knight, BED CHEM!!! Fucking love everything about their first time just absolute perfection, the intimacy and care and honest vulnerability in their silences is so precious, “You're mine. No take-backs.", Ilya being terrified of leaving familiar abuse of his family for the warmth and joy in being wanted just as he is from Shane and choosing to try anyway is why I adore him, making me tear up over the grandparents gifting them pets so they won’t be lonely at home is rude, their love will never truly cure their anxieties/depression/insecurities but it can sure as fuck help, Yuna and Ilya bonding over moving to a new country so very different from their home is so important, I will never get over Shane guiding Ilya through his childhood stomping grounds, the Council finding Ilya as an acceptable consort is hilarious, and yes Warlord Rozanov is the best fucking choice
    (17) I love a Japandi style home for Shane, fuck “is that our house” hurts so good, we love an intense and non-toxic rivalry, Shane’s peaceful morning getting de-railed by Ilya’s surprise CK ad and then getting virtually railed by Ilya surprise gift is perfection, and Ilya being loved by the Hollander family through recipes, puzzles and endorsements is so lovely
    (18) Sveta and Ilya here are my fave type of friendship where they meet each other both as they are and who they’re growing to be, where with new boundaries and life-style changes they adapt to continue growing together rather than drag the other back, also Svera being perceptive as hell is fantastic
    (19) long live loverboy Ilya, comphet is so fucking weird babe, and emotionally secure and trusting Hollanov is delicious: Chapter 19

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is a man who thrives on structure, routine, the solid ground of a ten-year plan. Ilya likes that about him, likes the embracing squeeze of having a life organized in tandem with Shane.

    No one would call Ilya a man who thrives on structure. But it’s there, if not in his DNA then in the patterns of his brain. A call-and-response of: they do this, I do that.

    When Ilya’s life is flayed open for the world to dissect, how will they push-and-pull their way back towards what was once a well-organized life?


    “I thought we could go through the schedules and figure out what days we’ll be in the same cities this season, or when either of us have a couple of days off in a row. Maybe make a shared calendar, so we c—”

    “A sex calendar? Your parents are arriving in thirty minutes, and you are proposing making a sex calendar?” Oh, this was delicious. He’d be able to eat out on this for years, if Shane was willing to give him that long.

    “It’s not a sex calendar! It’s just … when we might be able to see each other,” he finished, already sounding defeated.

    “And what are you planning on doing when we are seeing each other? Not fucking?”
