  1. And there.

    Through a break in the trees, there is a house. Wooden, old, the pale white paint of it greyed with age and dampness.

    "I—" His voice comes out level, at least.

    The man has tilted his head. "What? You want to sleep in your car?" He pulls his chin toward the dark interior of the house, a small gesture. "No. Come in. Is no trouble."

    God hasn’t abandoned him yet, ha.

    Shane Hollander's car breaks down in the middle of nowhere. The man who answers the door is charming, warm, and just his type. Ilya Rozanov is a very religious man. He has a lot to say about repentance.

  2. “I am not scared,” he lies. Each word is soft but crisply enunciated so Shane can't miss them. “Do you want me scared?”

    “Obviously not,” Shane snaps at him. He gestures toward Ilya's waist, toward the slim outline of what he had clocked as a folding knife the second Ilya started carrying it, and adds, “but I know you're not just ‘happy to see me.’ I want the truth, I need to hear that-” he chokes over his words, his lips moving too quickly for his brain to keep up. “Please, be honest with me, for once.”

    For a long, silent moment, Ilya just stares at him, grinding his teeth behind a placid expression as if Shane can't tell. 

    -

    Shane and Ilya talk about their feelings, kind of.

  3. “Are you gonna hurt me?” “Baby, I would never hurt you.” Shane couldn’t take his eyes off the other man, the atmosphere in the room layered with fear and heat and something deeper, something almost primal. Like prey caught between the teeth of its predator. 🗡 Or: scream au ft. freak4freak hollanov and slight ilya whump!

  4. Everything Shane has ever done has resulted in something else. People would call that karma, or physics, but Shane knows better. There are moments he’s sure he has the ability to control everything with a right or wrong thought. And there are moments of clarity where he knows this isn’t true.
