  1. When an injury puts Ilya in a coma during the Ottawa Centaurs third game in the Stanley Cup final, Shane must decide whether he can handle the pressures of leading the team to victory with the worry that at any moment Ilya's condition could go from bad to worse. * Shane didn’t want to go home. It was one thing to be in another country clinging to the unfamiliarity of the people and the places to try and rationalise that this was a strange nightmare. But when he had to wake up in his bed alone and walk streets with people wearing Ilya’s jersey that pathetic hope would be extinguished. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. The next game was the 11th, and if they hadn’t won by then they would have done by the 13th. Either way, by the time Ilya turned 32 on the 15th he was supposed to be a two-time Stanley Cup winner. They would spend the summer at the cottage, bathing in the joy of success and each other and forgetting that there was a world out there that demanded things of them. Title from Walt Whitman's 'O Captain! My Captain!' RIP Walt Whitman you would have loved hockey yaoi.

  2. It's New Years' Eve and Shane takes a Vodka-induced spiral through a level of jealousy he didn't know existed.

    ----

    He looked over the rim of his glass, eyes immediately landing on Ilya’s laughing face on the other side of the club near the bar. He had his arm slung over Svetlana’s shoulders, her neck comfortably at the bend of his elbow. Shane’s teeth ground together when Ilya used the crook of his arm to pull Svetlana closer, Ilya's head tipping down to place his ear near her mouth.

    It was Ilya’s turn to lean in to speak in Svetlana’s ear, a grin spreading over Svetlana’s gorgeous face as she listened to his words. 

    Shane could vividly imagine what Ilya’s voice would sound like at this point. It would be raspy and rough, like a rumble. He’d heard him sound like that a thousand times and Shane would never be sick of it. It made his chest tight, his heart hammering to think about the way Ilya’s soft lips would brush along his ear. How his tongue would lick up the shell before nipping at the spot under Shane’s ear that made him moan.

    But he wasn’t doing any of that. He was talking to Svetlana. His friend.

  4. "I can't wait for them to put your tooth back in," Shane tells him when they get back home after the game. "What? You do not like sticking your tongue through my hole?" "Ew. No, I do not like it when you push my tongue into the spot where your missing tooth is." OR boston fans attack ilya before a game but he is determined not to let it ruin his season "I am so fucking sorry." Hayden repeats again. Shane nods, his chest is tight and that is as much of a response as he can manage. Yuna finds the words for him. "It's okay Hayden. We all know it was an accident." The crisis response team has gathered at Shane's house in Montreal. Shane's parents, Hayden and Jackie, mill around the living room. Farah, Shane and Ilya's shared agent joins them over a video call. "I knew we shouldn't have given the kids screens. Let alone ones that connect to the internet." Jackie sighs. Hayden's phone had been glitching so he signed onto Instagram on the girls' tablet to scroll. He had left his account logged in and somehow Ruby had managed to post a video to his account. Not just any video, but a video the kids had taken on the day Shane and Ilya had spent babysitting them. It showed the two men exchanging their vows, dressed up in play clothes standing in the Pike's living room. It showed their quick kiss, and the dance party that followed and the longer, more tender kisses they had stolen when the kids weren't looking. "I just still can't get over how I wasn't invited to my own son's wedding." David jokes. A small laugh comes from around the room. Shane brain is stormy with anxiety but he manages to fire enough neurons to put a small smile on his face. "I didn't even notice the girls were taping us." The video, admittedly, was very cute. If it had been kept private Shane would've cherished it. But despite Hayden deleting it minutes after it was posted, it had blown up and was all over the internet. "It is nice that we have a video," Ilya says, returning from the next room where he had been taking a phone call. He places his hands on Shane's shoulders and tries to squeeze some of the tension out of them. "Of the happiest moment of my life." "You know I still expect a real wedding, right?" Yuna says seriously. "One with an officiant and flowers." "We will have a big wedding." Ilya smiles and leans down to kiss Shane's cheek. "With a giant cake, and hundreds of people on a private island. Maybe fireworks, yes?" As nice as it was to imagine a big wedding to love of his life, the shadow of reality was still looming darkly over Shane's head. "If we both lose our jobs in the NHL it might be hard to afford a big wedding," Shane mutters. "But that's not going to happen. Right Farah?" Yuna says. It takes a second for Farah to unmute herself. "We're not going to let that happen. The commissioner may not be happy about this but you've got a lot of people on your side. The fans, your teammates, and our lawyers are suiting up. We're ready to fight whatever the league throws our way." "She is right. I just finished call with Coach Wiebe. He says we have his full support. Both of us." Ilya states. "We're here for you. Anything you guys need. Really." Hayden adds. Shane lets out a sigh. It's not quite relief, but something inside of him starts to settle. It's tough at first. The first few practices, the first road trip after they are outed are tough. Shane's team gives him icy looks. Some hockey fans travel to Ottawa with homophobic signs and are kicked out of the arena. There's a media circus about it. But soon another hockey scandal comes and takes some of the attention away. A Carolina player tests positive for steroids, and he's benched. There are good changes too. More and more hockey fans bring pride flags to games. Articles are written about the hockey husbands. And Shane and Ilya can go out in public. At first, they start with private restaurants, walking trails. Then there's a charity gala and they are photographed on the red carpet together. And they look good together. Really good. They are asked if they want to be on the cover of OUT magazine together. They discuss the opportunity over the phone, while lounging in their respective hotel rooms. "I don't know. Wouldn't it kind of be pushing it in everyone's face?" Shane worries. "I want it in their faces. They should be jealous of me and my hot boyfriend," Ilya makes a kissy face and smiles. Shane chuckes. "Yeah. I mean it would be fun. And it might be nice to finally have photos together where we aren't in hockey gear." "Yes. I want a photo with you in sexy clothes. We should practice our modeling. You should send me a picture." "The only problem is I think I forgot to pack my sexy clothes." "Ah. No worries. No clothes will work too." The photoshoot goes viral. Not so much with the hockey fans, but the rest of the internet eats it up. People use the photos as reaction pics on twitter. A few influencers try and recreate the elaborate athletic poses featured, which turns into a TikTok challenge of its own. They partner with a charity supporting homeless LGBTQ youth to auction off a signed Hollander-

  5. It is the beginning of Shane’s second season with the Ottawa Centaurs. Last season saw them go from strength to strength, and Shane is on a mission to compete for the Stanley Cup. His husband, Ilya, also has the same goal; however, he thinks it may be a tad ambitious this season. Of course, he won’t let that affect Shane’s drive, as when it comes to hockey, Shane can achieve anything when he is motivated enough. That is until one fateful game, when Shane is knocked out cold and unresponsive. Ilya is forced to relive the trauma from many years ago, as Shane battles the effects of a traumatic brain injury.

    Shane told Rose that he's never been kidnapped before, but there have been plenty of threats, enough that he already knows to dub this latest one the "Hospital Incident." There's just one factor that makes this particular incident very different from all the other past threats—this time Ilya is there to save him.

  11. “…Big hit from Buffalo defenseman Nate Ryland, and Rozanov is down.” His head spins around when he hears the commentary, his heart clenching immediately when his eyes land on the horrifying sight of his boyfriend down on the ice with obvious pain on his face. “Not looking good for Ilya Rozanov, who seems to be in a fair bit of pain at the moment. This injury could put an end to Boston’s winning streak and their hopes of another cup this season…” Or, the first time Ilya gets injured after they make their relationship official.

Things escalated in a way neither of them ever thought they would. Or: In all the years of their rivalry, Ilya and Shane have never fought on the ice before. At least, not before tonight.

  13. He doesn't really know what he wants to say. He can't tell Rosanov straight up that he's sorry he won't see him; he can't say he wishes he was there. He doesn't want to know what Rosanov would say back. None of the options feel good. (Four times Shane or Ilya were injured and couldn't see each other, and one time they could.)
