1 – 6 of 6 Works in Winter Olympics

  1. Shane is sitting above the covers on the bed, which they clearly made by pushing the two twin beds together. “This is my roommate, Shane,” says Ilya. Shane looks up from his phone and shakes his head as he blushes, “you’re such an asshole.” Ilya says, “Harris asked if beds were made of cardboard.” Ilya gets close to the bed frame and knocks, showing how sturdy it is. “Is not cardboard, very strong. Hard to break.” “Ilya,” Shane says in a tone both reprimanding and chirpy. Or, Ilya takes Harris’s advice and films videos for TikTok while at the Olympic village.

  2. If you’d already decided love was more than enough, that being together was bigger than fear; if you’d already picked each other over everything else, already picked a season to make it known; if you’d exchanged rings and vows and you knew this was forever and—most significantly—no one’s idiot best friend accidentally outed you early with his stupid side-hustle video scheme: would you stick to the plan?

    Or, would you play a slightly longer game to make your point; would you wait a couple extra months if it meant seizing the opportunity to go big, go bold, shove loving this much in the faces of the naysayers and the assholes and the bigots on an oh-so-convenient, quadrennially-available global stage?

    Or: No FanMail. No outing. No forced free agency. Just their terms. Just their choice. Just their love.

    So hell yes: Shane and Ilya use the 2022 Winter Olympics as their hard launch. How’s that even a question?

    Scott Hunter’s gonna be so pissed at being upstaged that bad.

  3. "Why are you not scared?"

    "I am scared," Ilya admits. "I just am tired. Of hiding me. Of hiding you. Of hiding how much I love you. I want to go to the rink— how do you say it? Authenti."

    "Authentically," Shane supplies, automatically.

    "Yes. Authentically. I want to go to the rink authentically, as me," Ilya confirms.

    Ilya looks at Shane, pauses until Shane meets his eyes. "I want to say: I, Ilya Rozanov, love a man, and that man's name is Shane Hollander."

    Or, sometimes it takes a little more time, and some courage, to be with the one you love.

    or,
    Canada faces Italy in the first preliminary match of the men's hockey tournament at the Olympics, and Ilya is not pleased that Shane has noticed the Italian goalie. What follows: a bad loss, the great condom shortage of the Winter Olympics, and an excommunication.

  5. Scott arrives at Sochi reckless, mostly hairless, and entirely Kip-less, but he's doing completely fine. Vaughny needs to stop worrying, because he's definitely not going to do something stupid, like spend his Gold medal speech begging Kip to take him back.
