Summary
There were rules.
Carefully crafted, regimented to every action and thought he had made since he turned seventeen. Their words a mantra in his head that made him scrape by just enough, made him perform just right, so no one would be able to tell that deep down some part of him was rotting.

Summary
The fall of the great Grigori Rozanov began long before anyone could spot the crumbling foundations. A series of silent strokes, the doctors had told him. Undetectable, seemingly insignificant infarctions with no outward symptoms to show for until the first name failed to find purchase in his lips, lost in a sea of memories and confusion.

Summary
Obi-Wan stared blankly at the flask as the old man gestured to the wreck around them. He remembered the children in the Young, how they reminded him of his creche mates, the girl in his arms; they weren't nearly old enough for everything going on. But they were old enough to die, a voice cried out inside his head. Obi-Wan took the flask and held it to his lips, the liquid burning his throat as it went down. He'd never felt so cold.
-
From the perspective of Obi-Wan Kenobi, from padawan up to 9BBY, this is a take on his life as if he suffered from alcohol misuse and how it impacted his life.

Summary
“If you ever talk about my fiancé like that again, then I will end your career.”
The words are pure vitriol, dripping from Shane’s mouth like venom from the fangs of a snake. He doesn’t raise his voice, he doesn’t even sound angry, he just sounds lethal. Like a man you don’t want to cross. Like a man who fully intends to honour his promise…or threat.
He’s met with stunned silence.

Summary
Slowly, the realization of what he is asking him to do sets in.
“Shane,” he croaks, his voice breaking. I can’t hurt you.
“Please,”
Always so pretty when he begs. Even like this, all messed up and bloody. Ilya loves him more than life.
“I don’t want anyone but you touching me."
That finally did it.
During the Boston vs. Montreal game, Marleau doesn't knock Shane out completely but still injures him. While a fight breaks out, Shane begs Ilya to help him, right there on the ice in front of the whole arena. Unfortunately, Ilya could never say no to him.
