    Summary

    After the Boxing Day fight, they don't talk it out. There's no crash, no final words over instagram. Just a letter on a coffee table saying "I'm done" and a blocked number.
    Shane's world crashes around him.
    Now it's 7 years later. Shane is retiring, reminded of everything he and Ilya planned. After an off the cuff comment at his retirement press conference he hears from Ilya, for the first time since the fight, asking to go out for drinks.
    How bad could this be?

    Summary

    The fight on Boxing Day 2020 end with Ilya asking Shane for a break and Shane walking out the door. Ilya never thought that will be the last time he saw Shane, for a very long time. During this time, everyone Shane loved struggle to cope with the grief, some better than others. Ilya stays in Ottawa and watches over Yuan and David Hollander, grieving their only son, and each in their own, do not survive it. Hayden searches for answers in the wreckage of his best friend's disappearance, turning over events in memory, unable to shake the feeling Shane told him something before he vanished.
    When Shane finally reappears, enduring the unthinkable, broken and barely recognizable, what comes next is harder than anyone anticipated.

    Or: AU after the Boxing Day fight in The Long Game. It's a story of grief, found family, a love that withstands hardship and passage of time, and the most unlikely friendship. Recovery is slow and costly and nonlinear, but that's what makes the happy ending hard won. Major Character Death warning are not for Shane or Ilya.

    Updates Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday.
