“Did, uh,” Frankie starts. She sounds faint. “Did you just say your boyfriend?”
Ilya’s stomach drops. Oh. Oh, fuck.
He doesn’t know what his face does. There will probably be pictures of this moment all over the internet by tomorrow morning. He doubts it’s flattering, considering there’s a non-zero chance he’s going to throw up all over the microphone.
Ilya scrambles. Too tired, too shocked at his own brain’s betrayal to know how to fix this. “Blyat,” he spits. Then he laughs, and even he can hear that it sounds more wild than genuine. “English language is hard, yes? I meant my boys, my boys who are my friends. The Centaurs, yes? They are all my boy friends.”
OR
Ilya Rozanov has a no-good, very bad two days and accidentally outs himself. He's not having a great time.

Ilya leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, a silhouette painted in moonlight and shadow. And Shane thought, as he often had, that he might explode from loving this man so much. That thank god they’d had a kid because now Shane had someone else important and hallowed to pour this love into, or else it might be too much to bear.

Right idea, a little to the left by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-04-25
Pike was back to calling Roz by his first name. This whole thing was really weird. Zane didn’t even know they were friends. But now Hayden Pike was on the phone, asking about Rozanov like they’re best buddies, or long lost lovers. He’s begging, he’s desperate, and Zane has never been more confused in his life.
When Zane Boodram receives a text from his wife after their almost plane crash in Tampa, telling him to please call this number because there’s someone on the other end who desperately needs to speak to his Captain, he definitely is not expecting Hayden Pike of the Montreal Voyageurs to be the person on the other end of the call.
Whilst he tries very hard to listen to Barrett and mind his own business about the whole thing, he’s got one question that he can’t stop swirling around his head.
Are Ilya Rozanov and Hayden Pike together?

Look, I Know You've Got This Thing For Rozanov by Anonymous

“Look, I know you’ve got this...thing...for Rozanov.”
Shane’s stomach dropped. “What do you mean?”
J.J. smiled sadly at him. “Why do you think I keep trying to set you up? Having a crush on a straight man is no good, buddy."----

Canada had given him his life as he knew it, but it had never felt one hundred percent comfortable, either. He missed Russia sometimes, but it didn’t have the thing that mattered most. Ilya had exactly one home, and it was this: his face pressed into a smooth chest, his head tucked under a strong jaw, with freckled arms wrapped around him and delicate fingers combing through his hair. Anywhere else was a temporary excursion. A treatise on second (and third) languages, homesickness, acceptance, Shane's struggle learning Russian, and the things people do when they care. A rewrite of Plentiful, but Ultimately Finite.

A Danger to Yourself or Others by Anonymous
Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
2026-04-15
Galina stopped writing to look at Ilya. "Do you think he'd be willing to talk to you next time it happens, even if it's late?"
Ilya's stomach turned over. He didn't even want to consider it, but he knew the answer. "Yes. But he silences his phone at night."
"Most phones these days have an option to let certain numbers ring through, even on Do Not Disturb. Do you think he'd be open to setting that up for you?"
Imagining that conversation made Ilya nauseous. Yes, no fucking doubt, Shane would be open to it if Ilya explained the reason. "I'm not going to ask him to do that."
Set during The Long Game, an alternate version where the plane scene doesn't happen. Instead, there's this: a car crash, a therapist's duty to report, and an urgent reckoning with priorities.

[Inside the Ottawa Centaurs’ locker room, Harris Drover attaches a microphone to Shane Hollander’s shirt as Ilya Rozanov sits next to him at a table. The two prepare to share the contents of their backpacks, which sit on the table in front of them]
Shane: I thought when people did these interviews, they got to like, pick what’s in their bag beforehand. It’s not usually a spontaneous thing, is it?
Ilya: How would you know this?
Shane: I watched one that Rose did.
Ilya: Oh, of course you watched Rose doing one of these videos. Did she have a framed photo of you in her bag so she could gush about how much you love each other?
Shane: Do I seriously need to remind you that I chose to marry you, and that we live and work together, and Rose is just my friend I see like twice a year?
Ilya: Yes.
Shane: Are you sure you want to do this with us, Harris?
Harris: I can’t help that the people love you. Besides, I’ve convinced myself this will be fun.
Shane: That’s not very comforting.
Harris: Neither is the look on Ilya’s face that’s telling me I will definitely come to regret this, but that’s the job!

is this how it feels to be in love by Anonymous

The funny thing about the whole thing is that Luca really sees none of it coming.
Because, yes, maybe he did have a tiny, very little crush on Ilya Rozanov growing up. And sure, maybe he did have his poster hanging up next to his bed. And okay, fine, maybe there had been a time in his life where he watched every single Raiders game with a hyperfocus on a certain player, and then secretly ventured onto his Tumblr feed after to watch and rewatch his favorite gifs from the game.
Or, Luca Haas is finally settling into who he is as a hockey player and a person. And then a certain rival of his comes bulldozing his way into his life.

Shane Hollander is benched following the fanmail video that outed his relationship with his rival Ilya Rozanov. While walking alone in Montreal he passes by a sports bar showing the Metros losing without him and he meets two unlikely companions.
“Didn’t mean to interrupt,” says Shane in soft English, looking at the bartender only, “Uh, just saw the game was on when I walked by, wanted to know the score.” He swallows thickly, “Guess we’re losing?”
The man who’d called him a homo ducks and with considerable effort, puts the table back where it had been before. He mutters something that Shane thinks is an apology to the bartender. The other man shakes his hand and reaches for a nearby chair.
In English, the man who’d called him the pride of Montréal says loudly, “A ginger ale for Monsieur Hollander, yes?”
Shane hesitates, then nods at the bartender, who wordlessly starts to pour. The two men finish righting the place and gesture for Shane to sit with them. Shane shouldn’t. But he does as the bartender comes over and sets a glass of ginger ale in front of him.
“So,” says Shane as casually as he can, “Uh, I guess you’re both Metros fans?”

Or: everyone thinks Shane abuses his girlfriend Lily, and Yuna Hollander is not at all amused about, while Shane is just upset that his parents have such an issue with him being gay.

A year after those first two weeks spent at the cottage in the summer of 2017, everything seemed to be looking up. Ilya Rozanov would soon hang up his Boston Raiders jersey in the name of love, and Shane could not adore this man more. Naturally, his brain chose that exact moment to resurrect some deeply buried fantasies he couldn’t bulldoze past this time. He blamed Rose. or Shane Hollander reinventing kinky interrogation roleplay with his own mind.
