    Summary

    The memory of Shane’s face the first time he had entered him has been permanently tattooed on his brain for years. There have been very few nights where the image of Shane arching back with his eyes closed in bliss has not haunted him, so many times that he knows it as well as his own. But this Shane, the one underneath him right this very moment, is going to be his undoing. It’s the same mouth open around a soundless cry, the same eyelashes fanning over freckled cheeks, the same shock of black hair against a pillow, but the expression is peaceful in a way that Ilya has never seen. 

    In comparison, Ilya is unraveling. He can feel every cell of his body vibrating on a frequency that threatens to dissolve him into an entirely different state of matter. Here, inside Shane with nothing between them, he is going to split apart and be made new, something beyond flesh.

    Summary

    What if Ilya has a panic attack in the locker room after getting the news of his father's death after the Winter 2017 Montreal @ Boston game and no one can figure out what is going on? What if, while scrambling for answers, Cliff Marleau has the brilliant idea to call Jane?

    Or,

    What if Shane and Ilya's deeper emotional connection begins just before Ilya leaves for his father's funeral in Russia instead of on a phone call while they are separated by oceans?

    Summary

    Rather than give him the joint, Ilya takes it back between his own lips and sucks in a deep breath, the tip glowing as he does so. Then, before Shane can process it, he’s reaching up and sliding one large hand around the back of Shane’s neck, pulling him down so their lips meet.

    Shane gasps softly, and Ilya takes the opportunity to blow smoke into his open and waiting mouth.

    Oh, God. Are you there? It’s me, Shane Hollander. We’ve had our differences, but I think I’d like to convert for real this time. I’m ready. Open the pearly white gates. I’m coming up.

    Shane goes to a house party, gets high, then gets on his knees. bon appetite

    Summary

    When you’re going up in flames, sometimes other people can smell the smoke. On the flip side, at least: when you’re on fire, sometimes other people can feel the warmth.

    Or, scenes from Home Economics, told from the perspective of everyone else.

    Summary

    The Swiss National League doesn’t care about the legendary Hollander-Rozanov rivalry. When the MLH can’t negotiate with the Hockey Players’ Union in time to prevent a hockey lockout at the start of the 2015 season, the Zürich Lions jump at the chance to sign both Shane and Ilya to short-term contracts. For four months in Switzerland, they share a team, a line, a house, and a bed. 

    Then the lockout ends in January, and it’s time to go back. Back to different countries, cities, lives. Beds.

    Reentry is harder than expected.
