    Summary

    In an attempt to get rid of a long standing crush, Akira avoids his best friend for a month to no avail. Akechi Goro does not take to the idea very well and resorts to petty methods to force Akira to hang out with him -

    like insisting he needs help on a boring case involving a string of thefts he never had any intention of looking into.

    Summary

    A record of the slow but inevitable assertion of gravity, or: moments captured on the silver rail, as an endearingly weird golden-eyed amnesiac convinces his judicious guard-slash-archivist trailblaze companion that he may in fact be for real.

    Caelus blinks at him in surprise.  "Since when have you paid attention to that kind of stuff?"

    "I have always paid attention," Dan Heng says, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.  "But I have only recently come to realize that observation without action has little value, when action is what is required."

    That sounds more profound than it should, out of Dan Heng's mouth.  "Am I really coming off that pathetic?"

    "Would you not do the same for me?"  Which isn't a no, actually.

    Summary

    Forgetting to mention that whole almost becoming an immortal abomination thing wasn’t Caelus' finest moment, no.

    That still didn't explain how he ended up sandwiched between a cargo container and Dan Heng.

    Summary

    “Ilya Rozanov,” Shane repeats slowly, letting himself taste the words. He grins. “Wow. You’re, like, a really good player. How come you’re in Canada for summer camp? Is that weird to ask? Sorry if that’s weird. I just meant-”

    Shane is cut off by a hand on his mouth. He flushes.

    “Too fast,” Ilya says. “My English… not good.”

    “Sorry,” Shane mumbles into Ilya’s hand. Ilya grins and shakes his head, curls dancing, as he pulls his hand away.

    “Is okay. Slow words. Okay?”

    This year marks thirteen year Shane Hollander's third summer at Coach Marakov's elite hockey training camp. In attendance for the first time: Ilya Rozanov, visiting from Russia. Shane isn't the most sociable, and Ilya's English isn't the greatest, yet the unlikely duo soon become the best of friends.

    It's just one summer, but it makes a world of difference.

    Summary

    Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”

    “Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.

    “No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”

    “Go fuck yourself.”

    +++

    Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.

    And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?
