  1. It's the 2020-2021 season. Ottawa Centaurs forward Derek Briggs, an undrafted player from the Swedish Hockey League, is having a fantastic rookie season. He makes the team out of camp, claws his way up to the second line, lives through an almost plane crash, and has a crush on his fellow rookie that just might be reciprocated. The Centaurs might even make the playoffs.

    Then, news breaks that Shane Hollander is suing the Metros and MLH for terminating his contract after he came out to them in 2017. Derek, who played with Shane in Sweden after he was forced out of Montreal, gets a lot more popular for all the wrong reasons. The media seems to think he's the secret hockey player Hollander's dating, Crowell is breathing down his neck, and all of a sudden, Centaurs captain Ilya Rozanov has it out for him.

    Shane Hollander was perfect; the perfect son, the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friend. He had spent years refining perfection, making sure he was the picture of it. It was second nature after all these years; a suit that didn’t quite fit, but that he’d gotten used to.
    Enter Ilya Rozanov.

  3. “Holy shit,” Carter says from the stall next to Scott, also staring at his phone. “Did you all see about Rozanov and Hollander?” The way Vaughan says it, it doesn’t sound like good news. Carter thrusts his phone in Scott’s face, and he takes it, pulls it back so the headline will focus. HOCKEY STARS CAUGHT IN STEAMY AFFAIR, the headline proclaims, and Scott skims through it quickly. Rozanov and Hollander, years—years?!—worth of videos and photos leaked. Scott is in an NHL locker room, watching his worst nightmare happen to someone else. Holy shit.

    Shane: Oh my God stop
    Ilya: What? I do that

  5. Ilya Rozanov returns from the 2017 All Stars different from how he left for them.

    Then his father dies, and he takes the call in their locker room after a game, and Cliff Marleau sees more than people think.

    And then Shane Hollander goes down, and Ilya Rozanov fucking loses it - not to the untrained eye, no, but Cliff Marleau has lived out of the locker next to this kid for the past seven years.

    He’s also not a fucking idiot.

  6. “So,” Cliff starts. “Ottawa.”

    “Ottawa,” Roz repeats, and the way he says it, half-amused, half-quizzical, gives Cliff nothing.

    “It’s not Montreal.”

    Roz looks offended. “Why would I go to fucking Montreal?”

    Cliff shrugs, going for casual. “Montreal Girl? I thought, you know, if you ever go to Canada…”

    Roz scoffs. “You and Montreal girl. You say I am obsessed with her, but is you who always talks about her.”

    “Yeah, because you’re always texting her!”

    “Well, I like to get laid.”

    And there’s Cliff’s opening.

    Or: Cliff has been suspecting that Roz moved to Ottawa for his Montreal girl for a while now. And tonight, they’re going to go out for drinks and he’s finally going to get some answers. Not even two overeager rookies are going to stop him. Except things don’t quite go as Cliff planned and Jane from Montreal is not what he expected.

    Contrary to popular belief, Cliff Marleau is not a complete idiot. He’s not exactly the sharpest knife or tool or whatever the fuck—too many concussions, not enough, like, reading or whatever—but he knows how to smell a rat. And Ilya Rozanov quietly moving to Ottawa as a free agent? Rat fucking central. Especially—especially, because Cliff’s 90% sure he knows why.

  9. Emma is the Boston Bears' A-WAG, and has been so for as long as she and Cliff have been together.

    The idea of Rozanov having a partner was crazy. The idea of him having a male partner (even an omega) was even crazier. But the idea of him having been with this male partner for multiple years, with children in the mix, and with none of the WAGs or the team knowing?

    Yeah, Emma wants answers. Sue her.

  10. After two months of being on Rozanov watch post him being dumped by Montreal Jane, the Raiders all breathe a sigh of relief when their captain goes back to his usual happy self after All-Stars.

    Cliff, Victor, and Connor notice that the timing of Ilya’s good mood coincides strangely well with the speculation (read: open secret) that Hollander and Rozanov definitely banged it out sometime during that weekend and after some theorizing, they’re pretty sure their captain has had a years long crush on Hollander and that his happiness hinges on making his giant crush on Shane Hollander come to fruition.

    Of course, as his friends, they need to help him to the best of their abilities.

Thankfully, a solar storm finds it for him. or: Near-death, zero gravity, and the wrong man’s hands in exactly the right places. A Cosmonaut!Ilya x Astronaut!Shane AU 🚀

  15. Cliff Marlow isn’t gay.
    It’s a fact that he’s calm, confident and unbothered by.

    He’s been hooking up with Ilya Rozanov on and off for a while now, but that doesn’t count.

    Rozanov just plays better after he’s been laid.
    And the team always plays better when Roz is playing well.

    It was really as simple as that.
