Summary
Shane's eyes squeeze closed again. “We had reason to put rules in place. Protocol. If ever—if it got to a place where, if he was ever feeling like he might—"
Hayden’s body understands before his mind catches up. His blood runs cold for a second, stuck on the scrunch of Shane’s face, the clench of his fist, how desperate he’d been to see Rozanov—Ilya—just now. To make sure that he was okay. Here, in person.
Not hurt. Alive.
“Oh,” Hayden hears himself say distantly. “Oh, fuck, Shane.”
--
or, Ilya needs a place to go, and Hayden's happens to be the closest. It turns out to be a good thing.

Every time I reread this story I carry it around with me for a few days, just sort of mulling it over
I just want Ilya to be surrounded by people who he can be gentle with, who make him feel safe -

This series bravely addresses two of my favorite questions:
1. Will Shane & Ilya always find their way to each other in every universe? (duh, always)
2. What happens if every single character you know is queer and in love? (sunshine and rainbows and joy) -

Summary
After coming out to Rose, Shane decides he doesn't want to lie anymore, even if he isn't sure coming out will mean he gets happily ever after with Ilya. When coming out to the Voyageurs leaves him wondering what his future in Montreal might look like, he lets himself be a little selfish, he lets himself wonder if there might be somewhere else he might be happy. If Montreal wants to get rid of a generational player, he's not about to stop them, especially if it means he can get a little closer to joy.
--
Or: Shane Hollander leaves Montreal in search of something better.

Bookmarker's Notes
This story (and the equally incredible part 2, with it's truly heroic number of manips) reminded me that I need to spend more time thinking about Skip because Scott Hunter really is That Guy. It also made me so deeply said for canon Shane & Ilya getting outed against their will - getting to watch them do it on their own terms was so healing and lovely.

Summary
“What are you doing here?"
He’s thankful his voice doesn’t shake, but he’s trembling. And he knows Ilya notices. Even all these years later, he’s sure he can still read Shane like a fucking book.
Ilya’s smile softens and he points to the ice, where the player whose eyes had brought Shane back to Before lines up with the other boys.
“My son."
Ilya never goes to the cottage. Nearly two decades later, they meet again.

Summary
“Should call you the Ottawa Puppies,” says the Toronto centre, Svensson. As an insult it makes no sense, so Ilya ignores it, until he continues, “Hear Hollander keeps you on a short leash.”
Ilya is the captain, so if anything, he should be holding the leash. In English, you can be singular or plural, but he knows what Svensson is trying to say. He is saying Ilya Rozanov, you are Hollander’s bitch.
“Only sometimes,” Ilya replies, grinning. He wins the face off.
OR: Ilya trains himself to be a very, very good guard dog for Shane.

Summary
Geralt was never supposed to survive the Trials. A submissive witcher was an abomination, an insult to the order of the world. He can never let anyone know his nature, can never accept a gentle touch or a kind word. It's too risky, too dangerous. He might slip up and that would mean the end of everything.
But Jaskier refuses to keep to the script. After the boisterous (alluring), overly invasive (affectionate), and stupidly persistent (brave) Dominant walks into his life with bread in his pants, Geralt starts to think that maybe he could break this endless cycle of deprivation and pain. If only he could figure out how to deserve it.
(This is a low, slow exploration of trauma, recovery, and learning to live with oneself. BDSM is the lens through which all that is explored, but this is not a story based around sexual encounters. Rather, it is one about intimacy, communication, agency, familial bonds, and seeing people as they are.)

Summary
A warm hand dropped on her shoulder, a gentle touch that stilled her. Gazing up into Phil’s blue eyes, she wasn’t sure she wanted to see the concern there, the extra emotion laced around the edges. “It’s important to me; you shouldn’t have to do anything that makes you uncomfortable.”
The closest he’d ever come to acknowledging her sexuality; the statement sent a tendril of heat through Natasha, a tingle of response. What were the odds of finding two men who understood? That the three of them would wind up here, together, the most successful strike team in SHIELD?

Summary
He hasn’t heard from him in almost a year.
Hesitant, he says, “Henry?”
There’s a sniffle. “Alex.”
Alex’s shoulders go taut with tension; he may not have heard from him in a year and had only seen him in tabloids and the occasional interview or ribbon cutting on a shitty stream that Alex had no business being on, but he hasn’t forgotten Henry’s tells. He hasn’t forgotten the edge to his voice on his dark days; the way it clings to the very molecules of air surrounding him, as if it wishes to seep into every ounce of air he dares breathe in.
Alex swallows, sets his highlighter down. “Henry,” he says carefully, “what’s going on?”
-
Or, a year after Henry tells Alex to leave, he does something unthinkable.
