    Summary

    “I shouldn’t have told you this.”
    Ilya held Shane’s jaw like he did that first night and kissed him softly. “Yes, you should have, because I love learning new things about you, Hollander.”
    “That’s nice. Almost worth the embarrassment of telling you I tied a whole-ass tie for a quick hookup,” Shane said, opening his eyes.
    “Ah,” Ilya said, seeming to remember something, and opened a mischievous smile. “But I bet that was not the most embarrassed one of us felt that night.”
    “I highly doubt that.”
    “I bet I win,” Ilya sang a little.
    “This is not a competition,” Shane said. “Or if it is, it’s the weirdest one we’ve ever had.”

    Or: Five times Shane and Ilya share embarrassing early-relationship lore because the other needs to hear it, plus one time they inadvertently share it with the internet.

    (Fics in the series are standalone stories that share loose connections and references.)

    Summary

    Yuna and Ilya might not be close yet, but she certainly isn’t going to abandon him in some random Ottawa hotel room when he’s sick. And Ilya's powerless against these Hollanders — their earnest kindness, and their insistence on caring about him as though he deserves it.

    Or: Yuna + Ilya's mortifying ordeal of being known.
