    Summary

    The Eridians have finally gotten the water feature in Ryland's personal zoo enclosure just right (even if Rocky would like him to stop calling his dome that).

    Rocky refuses to believe that humans naturally float. There is no way Ryland's entire species regularly goes into deep water for fun.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    Summary

    Shane Started. “Well, I’ve been doing some reading, on the IIHF. Y'know, their rules and stuff. I was thinking, now that you have a Canadian passport, maybe you didn’t have to stop playing in the tournaments. I mean- you don’t have Russian citizenship anymore, so it doesn’t make sense for you not to be allowed to play anywhere… so I went through the rulebook for a nationality transfer.”

    Shane pulled up a document on his phone and turned the screen for Ilya to see. Big bold letters flashed in front of Ilya’s face: Application to Change National Eligibility.

    Ilya stayed silent. His brain was still having trouble computing what Shane had just said to him. He hadn’t even realized this was an option for him, but now that he knew it was all he wanted to do. There was a real possibility that he could compete with Shane for Canada.

    -

    OR

    Russia was Banned from International Ice Hockey Federation + Olympic contention in 2022 (This is not an AU, this is a fact). With Ilya Rozanov’s new Canadian citizenship, and 4 years until The NHL Four Nations Faceoff, he comes up with an idea nobody considered. Ilya’s POV and Internet POV.

    “I don’t want to drag you down with me.”

    “You’re not,” she says. “Maybe I’m not perfect, Haymitch. Have you considered that?”

    “You’re my rare and radiant girl-”

    “Nowhere in my poem does it say that the girl is perfect,” she says. “Maybe that’s why he can’t forget his lost Lenore. Because she was less than perfect. Because she fascinated him.”

    “I’m still less than you deserve,” he says, and she smiles.

    “It’s not about deserving,” she says quietly. “I want to give you everything. If you’re bad, let me be bad with you.”

    Summary

    No matter how much he loved his husband, Shane had always wanted to be a star hockey player first and foremost, not a 'gay hockey player' defined first by his sexuality.

    He had also made peace with what their marriage meant, and the challenges they faced in hockey because of it; he had found happiness in the bubble they had in Ottawa with the Centaurs.

    That safe bubble burst one day with an unexpected call from Hockey Canada, and by the time it was all said and done, there was going to be a picture of Shane beside ‘gay icon’ in the urban dictionary.

    Summary

    It doesn’t take long for the rumors to start.

    The Fire Nation prides itself on its civilization. It isn’t like the other, lesser, nations who throw their children away by sending them into war. Those uncultured and unfeeling savages who are destroying their own future faster than the Fire Nation can save them from themselves.

    Every Fire Nation child goes to school. They learn reading and writing, the illustrious history of their country, and what will be expected of them as proper, upstanding Fire Nation citizens. They are to be protected, because children are the future glory of the nation.

    The crown prince is thirteen when his father burns his face in front of an audience of hundreds.

    Summary

    Sokka wanted to see his dad more than anything in the world. Some nights, after everyone had gone to sleep and it was just him, he thought he would let the Fire Nation burn as many Earth Kingdom cities as they wanted if it meant that his dad could hold him close one more time and never have to let go. When Katara offered to stay behind, to let him see Dad, he was a hair's breadth away from agreeing.
    But Sokka knew his sister better than he thought he knew himself sometimes. For all her talent and kindness, she didn't have the same mind for strategy; she'd never needed to rely on it like he had. And while they’d traveled, she had been too focused on mastering her bending, and then teaching Aang to do the same, to notice all the little things that could make the difference between a successful invasion and a tragedy. Sokka had been the one to take note of everything. He was the one with the experience, and he knew that if this plan failed, it wouldn't matter if he got to see Dad right now anyways because he'd never have the chance to keep him.

    So he let Katara go instead of him.
    And that changed a lot of things.

    Summary

    “You’re not carrying me.”

    “I don’t mind,” the lifeguard says easily.

    “I can just hop over.”

    “On sand?”

    Zuko will never admit it, but being carried feels pretty nice. The lifeguard sets him down and eyes him warily.

    “Are you really all by yourself?” he asks in a worried tone. “No friends in town you can call to check on you?”

    “No,” Zuko confirms. Tears are forming again with alarming speed; his foot throbs painfully with every passing second.

    “What kind of burrito do you want?”

    “You don’t have to —“ Zuko repeats.

    “I’m getting al pastor. You like al pastor?”

     

    AU: Zuko falls for Sokka, the super hot lifeguard who helps him after an unfortunate encounter with a stingray.

    Summary

    Sokka traced the lines that made up the name of his soulmate, confused as to why he was unable to read them. The characters weren’t like anything he’d seen before, jagged and complex, whereas the language he did know—the one on his parents' wrists—was far softer, simpler.

    Summary

    On July 4, 2018, Ilya announces to the world that he has already played his last home game on Boston Raider ice. He's an Ottawa Centaur now, for better or for worse.

    Most all of Boston Twitter agrees it's for worse.

    Shane Hollander, watching alone on his couch at the cottage that Ilya just left a few days ago, knows it's for the better. And he thinks he knows that Ilya thinks it's for the better too, that Ilya's excited for the move, excited to be closer to Shane. It's just hard to remember that when Ilya looks so distracted and sad in the wake of the news breaking.

    But one day, Shane's going to promise this man that he'll be there for him through better or worse, so he may as well start practicing now.

    Summary

    Ilya’s been muzzled his whole life.  

    He’s been told to sit, to stay, to stand and smile. When to be quiet, and when to speak. He’s been dressed up and paraded around with a high collar tight around his throat. He’s been kicked in the ribs and patted on the head by the same cruel master. Total obedience expected, and enforced by discipline when adoration failed. He was torn from his mother too early, stunted forever, given over to strangers when his limbs were still gangly and he still whimpered in his sleep. 

    Shane is the first person who’s ever loved him like a human, and not like a beast.
