  1. Shane is in the front pew. His face is—Ilya does not have words for what Shane's face is doing. He has seen Shane angry and afraid and exhausted and soft and undone. He has never seen this. This is something below all of those things, something that lives at the very bottom of a person, that surfaces only when the thing above it has given way.

    This is what it looks like when Shane has nothing left to manage.

    Ilya reaches for him.

    His hand passes through air.

    -

    Or: Ilya Rozanov turns the same age his mother was when she died. Featuring strange dreams, tarot readings, and a woman with her back to him who keeps appearing where she shouldn’t.

    A man who spent twenty years preparing to die, and one husband who refuses to let him.

  2. “A lot of people were surprised by the video of Rozanov and Hollander last season, especially given the distraction it created around the playoffs. What was the reaction in the Bears locker room?”

    Or, Seb and Marly are left unsupervised at a post-game Bears press conference, and share their unfiltered thoughts.

    POV Cliff Marlow, set during the start of the 2021 season.

  3. “Capitaine!” J.J.’s booming voice greeted him as if he was on speaker. It had been over two seasons since Shane signed with Ottawa, but J.J. insisted on calling him Capitaine still.
    “Hi J.J., what’s up?”
    “What’s up with you, hat trick against Toronto yesterday! Crisse, what are they feeding you in Ottawa?”

    Even when on different teams, the “J.J. always calls and never texts” rule still applies.

  4. Marly is hungover and absolutely not ready for a trivia brunch about Roz and Hollander the morning after their wedding. The Bears know almost nothing about the couple, so they fall back on what they do know, the lovely Montreal Jane, but the more they answer, the stranger it gets.

    Or, just how similar were Jane and Hollander, and how did Roz end up with what was a carbon copy of the same person? The lucky asshole.

    POV Cliff Marlow, who is the real MVP!

  5. Ilya knew, right from the very moment he met Shane Hollander, that he would never be good enough for him. He’d seemed so…pristine, when they first met. Untouched. And Ilya knew his unclean hands would only dirty him up. He’s always been selfish, though; his father used to tell him that. So it’s no surprise, really, that Shane has finally gotten tired of it. Of him, always needing more from Shane than he deserves - always begging for more than he has earned. Ilya would leave himself, too, if he could. (Or, five time Ilya thought Shane would leave, and one time he knew he wasn’t going anywhere.)

  6. Shane was still trying to settle Max, cupping the back of his head, pressing him back against his chest. Body warmth, familiar scent—that was supposed to be enough. That was supposed to be some innate thing, some animalistic pull newborns had toward their parents, hardwired in them from the beginning. Shane had read that. He was pretty sure he had read that. It was probably really bad that his baby didn't have it toward him. Or, Shane is not bonding with his new baby.

  7. In the midst of a press conference announcing an expansion of the Irina Foundation to include two camps in Europe, a homophobic “activist” attempts to disrupt Shane and Ilya's statements. He seems to have forgotten that Shane is a professional athlete. It's a swift reminder.

  8. Harris put the finishing touches on Ilya's new 'pregnancy bod' tugging at the clear wrap to ensure that it was snug enough and that it wouldn't budge whenever Ilya moved. He then grabbed the digital scale from the bathroom to make Ilya stand on. "Alrightie, step up here and we'll see what your final weight is and if it matches Shane's current weight." "Oh we don't want to even get into that— let's just say I weigh a lot more than I did." Shane begrudgingly admitted, shifting around on the couch when his pup gave him a kick to the bladder reminding him that he needed to pee. Or Ilya wears a watermelon for a day to see how Shane survives everyday life, chaos ensues.

  10. Ilya Hollander (Mila's Dad) [2:18pm]:
    Are you free tomorrow? Mila is very excited for Maddie to come over

    Bring your Centaurs fan husband!


    The minivan is the first thing Jane notices when they pull up the Hollanders' driveway.

    “See?” she says pointedly to her husband. “They drive a normal car.”

    “Janie, that’s a ninety-thousand dollar minivan,” Chris says. He puts the car in park; he’s been nervous since they left the house, but he’d never say so.

    “You need to relax,” Jane laughs. “They’re just two nice, normal dads, who invited us over so our kids can play hockey.”

    “Yeah, just normal, millionaire dads with like, seven Stanley Cups between them–”

    Jane cuts him off. “You know how hard it’s been to make friends with some of the hockey parents here. These guys are nice! And the girls get along so well!” She points a finger at her husband’s face and lowers her voice. “Don’t screw this up for her.”

  13. Ilya had Shane only in fleeting moments for nearly ten years. Rushed hookups and greedy hands grabbing at anything and everything he could to savor every second of the limited time he knew he was running out of.

    And then they got married.

    Now, at night, Ilya slips into a bed that’s already warm with his husband.

    Or, all the ways Shane and Ilya say I love you without actually saying it.

  14. In the offseason, a steamy video of Shane and Ilya dancing at a club goes viral. Already out and married for years at this point, the first husbands of hockey can't believe this is news. For once, it's Shane whose media responses blow it up even further. Ilya’s not about to let an opportunity to compete with Shane go to waste.

    Or

    The rivalry still hasn't died, they just find new ways to keep it going. Why choose silence when you can choose violence?

  19. Shane was exhausted and as it turned out waddling around the house and being this heavily pregnant was actually quite tiresome.

  20. "Papa just needs to give Daddy a bandaid. He has a small ouchie." "Ouchie?" "Just a little, itty bitty one." Or maybe his brain was hemorrhaging, but Ilya tried hard to shove that thought down. Mila frowned. "I wanna give Daddy a bandaid." "This is a special bandaid only Papa can give," Ilya said, thinking rapidly and coming up with very little. "You can give him a special Mila-only bandaid when we see him later. Okay?" Mila nodded slowly. She swallowed her fruit snacks and looked at Ilya in the mirror. "You have to ‘member to kiss his ouchie, Papa." Ilya reached his hand back between the seats and held it there until her small fingers wrapped around his. "I will kiss Daddy's ouchie." Or, Shane gets injured during practice. It is, to put mildly, a lot for his very attached husband and children to handle.
