    Summary

    In the middle of the night, Ilya receives the call that ends his and Shane’s world. He spends the morning shielding their daughter, bright-eyed Lucy, with cereal parties and extra cuddles, delaying the moment he must break his husband Shane. Once the news is out, Ilya and Shane summon every ounce of strength to shield Lucy’s innocence from the pain of the world. Only after dark do they finally collapse, clutching a pair of tiny, pristine baby shoes that will never be worn.

    OR

    A one-shot where Shane and Ilya grapple with the loss of a child.

    Summary

    On a whim, Shane sends Ilya a postcard after they reunite in Tampa. And while it may have started out as an impulse, Shane and Ilya continue to send one another postcards using their code names. This takes place primarily between Tampa and the Cottage. While they text and FaceTime, the postcards are another way to communicate, but they're also more than that. They are something both Shane and Ilya can hold onto out in the open.

    Summary

    “I pee on a stick every day, take my temperature, app tells me when to fuck,” Ilya summarises succinctly. “App says we fuck today. Possibly tomorrow also.”

    “Tomorrow too?” Shane teases. “Are you just trying to get into my pants?”

    “If I was just trying to get into your pants I wouldn’t be on bottom,” Ilya points out, and he does have a point there. Not that topping is unpleasant, or anything, but it’s not exactly something Shane tends to do without an occasion. “I also wouldn’t have to use app. I would say ‘Hollander, get your dick out,’ and you get your dick out.”

    “Are you calling me easy?”

    “Yes. We are both easy, it is the best thing about our relationship.”

    —————

    Shane and Ilya want kids, preferably soon. The details of making that happen prove to be slightly more complicated than initially anticipated.

    Lovers, or, English is a damn funny language by

    Summary

    Ilya asked Shane’s father while Shane and his mother were talking outside: “Is boyfriends correct? Lovers is incorrect, but I am not sure what is correct.”

    “Well,” Mr. Hollander said. “‘Lovers’ is usually used for, hm, a mistress or an affair. Something kind of sordid. Though--you would say Romeo and Juliet is a play about two lovers,” he said. He paused his knife on the chopping board. “Somehow that’s right and using it for real people isn’t right. English is a damn funny language, Ilya."

    “Yes,” Ilya said from the bottom of his heart.
