Jane
They send like, a thousand messages a day
I don't have time to read it all
Lily
not even to see if they are lusting after the gorgeous russian?
Jane
Don't flatter yourself
Lily
imagine: whole team of mes
the moscow rozanovs
Jane
I don't think anyone wants that.
Lily
would be greatest hockey team to ever live
wags would not have to choose. everyone would get their own ilya
Jane
Yeah, good luck being goalie
You wouldn't make it past game 50
Lily
you are wrong
and I would have my wags supporting me
Jane

Chapter End Notes

thank you all for your wonderful comments! I promise I see them <3

few questions if you wanna reply:
- should I try to change the skin a bit to be a dark-mode iphone screenshot? I don't know if I'm blasting anyone's retinas with the white background lol
- would you guys want to see more textfics outside of this scenario?? more hollanov in non-canon or canon scenarios? just curious about the vibe. I'm having fun with these

Ilya
and?
Shane
I think they're calling for my head
Ilya
GOOD. Very good. Very very good
Shane
I can't read too much of that
I get it enough from you
Ilya
imagine the things I would say if I was in there
Shane
You're talking big for someone literally sleeping with the enemy.
Ilya
you know what, to stay under radar you should say things like
Hayden Pike is even worse player than he is dinner guest
Shane
How the fuck would "Jane" know that?
Ilya
I have long elaborate backstory for Jane
in my own head
Shane
You do?
Ilya
duh
Shane
You never told me that
Ilya
you do not speak with wags!! no chance to use it
Shane
What's Jane's last name?
Ilya
oh
well
I don't know that
Shane
Wow
So you have an elaborate backstory on how Lily somehow has met Hayden Pike to the point of knowing he's a terrible dinner guest, but she has no last name?
Ilya
shittalking pike in accurate way is higher priority
Shane
Get back to me when Jane's a fully formed individual.

Ilya

Today 4:10 PM

Ilya
so Jane (last name is not important) and I met three years ago in hotel bar in Montreal
Shane
Oh my God. You did have a backstory.
Ilya
shut up
I am telling my story
OUR story
she had such beautiful dark hair and brown eyes and face I could not take my eyes off her. her freckles… to die for
Shane
I'm starting to notice some similarities between us.
Ilya
similarities? you ARE jane, yes? if not, who am I texting??
Shane
Ok, yeah sure.
What was I drinking?
Ilya
ginger ale
Shane
Oh
Ilya
Jane is not big drinker
and she knew nothing about hockey
Shane
Is that right?
I remember I knew quite a bit about hockey. Maybe even more than you.
Ilya
no no she was like this sport, it is so magical, I bet you are best player that ever lived.
also wow, you are so sexy, will you have sex with me?
and immediately gives room number.
what could a man do? she was begging
Shane
Right, of course.
Ilya
Anyway. Jane is graduate student at McGill. she knew Jackie Pike in university.
and Jane has babysat for Pike children
so she cannot talk too much shit about Montreal
and why she knows Hayden Pike is terrible dinner guest
Shane
I'm shocked.
You have an answer to everything.
Ilya
except for why Jane does not come to Montreal games
Shane
Well, she might not be able to get in.
Ilya
why?
Shane
No last name.
Can't buy tickets to anything.
Ilya
you are sometimes funny
Shane
Can we go back a bit and remind me what exactly we got up to after I gave you my hotel room number?
Ilya
Jane!
that is scandalous
but, since you begged
;)
