    Summary

    One clip from the sentencing made the rounds—the world and Ilya watching with sick fascination as Hollander, seemingly shocked by the verdict, jerked toward the spectators before the guards came to lead him away, his eyes wide and full of terror. “Mom!” he cried, just like a little boy. Mom herself stood weeping with one hand over her mouth.

    So much for the Rozanov/Hollander rivalry.

    In December, 2008, Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander met during the International Prospect Cup and jointly sized up the competition. Their rising stars were destined to follow a parallel course. But only days before the NHL draft, Hollander inexplicably committed a series of shocking murders and was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
    Now, fifteen years later, Ilya has been arrested in connection with an international drug trafficking conspiracy, and will be granted immunity in exchange for information. There’s only one catch – authorities have discovered new evidence in connection with Hollander’s crimes, and the FBI want Ilya to visit the Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane to see if a previously uncooperative Hollander will speak to the man who was once destined to become his rival…

    Shane Hollander is Dating a Nice Man From Montreal! by

    Summary

    Shane Hollander has a secret boyfriend, and it’s not Ilya Rozanov. That’s for the best, though, because Shane’s boyfriend is absolutely perfect on paper. He’s also completely on board with the need to keep their relationship out of the press to avoid ruffling any feathers at the MHL commissioner’s office.

    There’s only one problem with Shane’s boyfriend. He’s not Ilya Rozanov.

    (Canon divergence where Ilya and Shane do separate photo shoots pre-rookie season and never hook up. Somehow. So then Shane has a “normal” dating life.)

    Summary

    Sometimes they’re curled up on the bed together afterwards and Shane runs his hands up and down Ilya’s body, rhythmic and smooth, touching just to touch. Ilya is stunning in the literal sense of the word: Shane is paralyzed by him, struck dumb. Desire may never be a problem here, but understanding is: Ilya feels distant and incomprehensible to Shane.

    Til They Retire Your Number by

    Summary

    They lapse back into a comfortable silence. Shane looks at Ilya as he is and thinks about Ilya as he was at seventeen, smoking in the back of a Saskatchewan parking lot. The image is almost unbearably tender for Shane, where his own seventeen year old thrill at seeing Ilya Rozanov meets all the things Shane knows about that lonely boy now.

    Shane thinks: Do you love number 81 more than you love this man?

    "Hey," Ilya says, brushing his knuckles over Shane's cheek. "Whatever I do, I will be there when you come home."

    Ilya decides to retire. Shane is very normal about it.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Ilya retires due to an injury. Shane adapts but in his Shane way. Eventually they both figure it out. (No, Shane doesn't retire, he wins the cup)
