    Summary

    According to widespread folklore, a red cardinal is a spiritual messenger or a sign that a deceased loved one is near.

    Snow has been falling since late afternoon the day before and has only just stopped, from what Ilya can tell anyway. The whole house is quiet beneath the blanket of snow. It feels so empty and he would feel lonely if he wasn't so fucking happy to be away from Andrei and The Colonel.

    And he's not alone, anyway.

    Because there is a red something just outside.

    ___

    Ilya keeps seeing cardinals when needs them most.

    Summary

    Once Irina died – Accident, Grigory had said – she saw Ilyusha change. The boy who liked flowers and fed the stray dogs and cried at sad movies was gone.

    He found sex and alcohol. He found women and men and parties and cocaine. Sveta couldn’t stop him. What she could do was follow him. They always followed each other everywhere, ever since they met. She could follow him into the fire and make sure he didn’t get burned too badly.

    Summary

    By the time Shane’s Uber was pulling up to Ilya’s home in Boston, Shane could feel it starting. Well, really it had been starting for a few hours now, but that’s when the final crack started to split open.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov pays attention. He pays attention to the puck, the crowd, where the other players are, where his next opening might be.

    He does not pay attention to the footsteps approaching him. He registers the sound, but he does not pay attention.

    Summary

    Ilya has had plenty of sex. That's no secret to anyone. He had long since confessed to Shane that sex with him was always special and different, and that he's never felt like that with anyone else, but the self doubt that lives in Shane's mind had told him that you can never be too sure.

    But he can be sure of this: Shane Hollander is the only person on earth who has ever fingered Ilya Rozanov. They had had the conversation when Ilya first asked to try bottoming. He had never trusted anyone to see him like this. He didn't want to feel vulnerable. But Shane is different, he had said. He knows Shane will take care of him.

    ---

    (aka: hollanov switch for the first time and its very sweet and sappy)
