  1. Summary

    There is a Russian phrase, Перед смертью не надышишься, or ‘you cannot breathe enough before death’. Tim wished he could tell you it was a cool idiom, but it was not. Although, Tim had always found the phrasing interesting even if it had a different meaning.

    Because it was true, no amount of breathing could stop death from coming.

    Summary

    “What do I get out of it?” Neil asked.

    “Pardon?”

    “I'm assuming I won't be playing,” he reiterated, “nearly as much as the rest of the team or not at all- and don’t try to tell me any different because I can tell from your lot,” Neil gestured to Ralph and the rest of them. “That you love to pick up lost causes. So, what do I get out of filling your line so you can throw balls to each other.”

    "Oh~ I like this one." Andrew said. "Can we keep him, Coach?"

    Or

    Neil gets a head injury that changes his mental stability. He is put on antipsychotic that causes him to become numb. After the Foxes recruit Neil's teammate in Milport and he's at the right place at the right time, he signs as well.

    Yummy yummy. Badass medicated Neil Josten…and I love him. He’s lowkey kicking ass and taking names but cannot recall a single thing from his past. Also, he's sort of just batshit insane. Love Ralph in this, he's becoming my baby and if anything happens to him I will lose mind. (38)

    Summary

    It’s the profound tragedy of Lando’s life, he thinks, to realise he’s in love with his teammate – just as Oscar Piastri makes a habit of standing one step higher on the podium, forcing Lando to crane his neck to look at him.

    Oscar hates watching the light fade from Lando’s eyes with every victory he takes from him. He accepted the inconvenient truth long ago: he loves Lando. But he loves winning more.

    Summary

    Neil Josten has spent his whole life running. He knows the rules: keep moving, keep lying, keep quiet. But when a chance at something more dangerous than safety drags him off the sidelines, Neil finds himself caught between a past he can't run from and a future he didn't think he could have.

    Or what if Neil were a little more anxious, a little more traumatised and a little more scary?

    Summary

    “Just got the word from the officials, Metros are shutting Miitka down for the night," LeClaire says almost dispassionately. “Third period we’re up against,” LeClaire consults his clipboard, “Shane Hollander. Drafted 2009, current starter for the Laval Maples, posts a .905 save percentage.”

    Ilya stays where he is, rolling the name around in his head once, without much interest.

    Hollander.

    Doesn’t ring a bell.


    Inspired by that one twitter post, what if Shane was a goalie?

    Shane scores a goal from his own fucking net. Reminds me a bit of Andriel. I love the Goalie!Shane agenda and their relationship is so stinking cute. (12)

    Summary

    "We're setting you up with a billet situation," Fletcher continued. "It's pretty common for first-year players, especially international guys. Gives you a chance to settle in, learn the city, have someone looking out for you."

    "Okay," Ilya said slowly, not entirely sure what a billet was, but not wanting to admit his ignorance.

     He could guess from the context – he’d heard of rookies being assigned to live with older single players, veterans who could show them the ropes. Maybe that was what Fletcher meant. Connors maybe, he was probably a handful of years older than Ilya. Or perhaps Becker. Ilya just hoped it was someone who–

    "You'll be staying with Nikolai Petrov and his family."

    The words hit Ilya like a punch to the gut. For a moment, he forgot how to breathe.

    "Petrov?" he managed, his voice coming out strangled.
    __________________________________________________________________

    The Bears decide that Ilya should be set up with a billet for his first season. The idea of spending a year living with a man that Ilya is sure hates him is completely terrifying. And yet, it ends up being the best thing to ever happen to him.

    This one hurts for some unknown reason. Reminder to yourself Terri: You will cry. Read it anyway. (11)
