  1. ~And from your lips, he drew the Hallelujah

    Ilya Rozanov leaves Boston and signs with Ottawa, trying to fight a slow slide into emptiness and find meaning in his life again. Shane Hollander is a lonely, struggling artist who lost his spark. When they meet by chance, they both have to decide what's worth living for.

    Or…Shane never gets the chance to become a pro hockey player, so they meet later in life. Basically, they’re both sad boys, but the healing will be worth it (mostly soft fluff, very low angst). More baggage, fewer hangups.

    ~You see I used to live alone before I knew ya.

    ——————————————————

    “So maybe we would have played together,” Ilya said.

    “Yeah. Maybe we would have been rivals,” Shane said, and that got a grin out of him. He couldn’t quite imagine it, but he thought that would have been fun, facing off against Ilya Rozanov. In another life.

    Ilya nodded slowly. “And yet here we are, meeting anyway. Maybe we were meant to.”

  3. 5 times that Eric fell for Luca (kinda) (even if he didn't realize it) + the 1 time he realized he needed to do something about it.

  4. “Today,” he says loudly. “Today, I will tell you about the time Shane got jealous because Tro–”

    “NO, Ilya,” Shane interrupts him, and Ilya greatly enjoys watching Troy’s head snap towards Shane, who glows like a freshly picked tomato. 

    And that’s fine, really. Being Shane Hollander’s husband means he has so much material to work with. 

    “Okay, well, what about the time you bought us a sex building?” he asks, and barely gets the sentence out before Zane Boodram makes a loud exclamation. 

    “A what now?” he asks, as the eyes of everyone on the plane flit back and forth from Shane to Ilya. 

    “Definitely not,” Shane snaps, and Ilya grins.

    “What about the time you panicked so much you got into a relationship with Rose Landry because I said your first name?”

    There’s an audible intake of breath, and Ilya watches as a number of emotions cross Shane’s face before it finally settles into something that looks resigned. 

    “Fine,” Shane says with a roll of his eyes, and the team cheers as Ilya’s smile grows so wide he knows his cheeks will start to hurt soon.

    Ilya claps his hands in front of him. “It all started with tuna melts.”

  5. Ilya sits down carefully and takes Shane’s hand. “I am going to ask you something, and I want you to try not to freak out, okay? Take a breath, think about it.”
    That sounds… serious.
    “The Centaurs are having a barbeque,” Ilya says. “I would like to go, and I would like you to come with me.”

    Shane meets the Centaurs. As Ilya's close personal friend slash charity partner from Canada.

  6. Ilya and Shane go to bed satisfied after a huge win and a night of celebrating. Shane fell asleep easily and Ilya is stuck awake, but fortunately for him, Shane’s subconscious seems just as needy as when he's awake.

  7. This made him realize something else about himself— something he’s never felt before, something he never thought he’d be. Ilya realized just how possessive he is over Shane and their marriage. or 5 times Ilya marks Shane and 1 time Shane marks Ilya aka the hickey fic

  8. After a great win against Toronto, Shane is walking out of the locker room with Ilya, Wyatt, Troy, and Luca, it’s Luca that mentions that 420 is on Monday and since they have three days off as of tomorrow, he asks if they’d like to come to his place and smoke some weed with him and some of the other— younger— players. “No, but thank you,” Shane says first before Ilya is looking at him with puppy dog eyes. “Ilya, no.” “Shane, yes,” Ilya smiles. “It will be great bonding moment, yes?” OR Shane smokes weed for the first time and has no issues with loving up on his husband in front of their friends.

  9. Shane is already nervous about hosting his new team right before the regular season starts for the Ottawa Centaurs. A lapse in the rigid rules he's set for himself leads to a few...consequences he definitely didn't foresee when he woke up that morning expecting the worst of their gathering to involve awkward small talk and making sure no one got so drunk they wouldn't make practice tomorrow.

    ~*~
    “Oh my god,” said Shane, his breaths coming in shorter pants.

    “You said you would not panic,” Ilya reminded him. 

    “That was before I did drugs!” Shane cries, way too loudly for the quiet of the room.

  12. "Ilya was a genius. Like, actually.
    The next match between Ottawa and Montreal was played in Ottawa in three weeks. On April 1st.
    April Fool’s Day.
    And Ilya, the ultimate prankster, had the perfect idea.

  13. The Centaurs rookies go for a "special walk" during one of Bood's bonfires. Chaos and gayness ensue.

    OR,

    This is a one shot from my larger fic, "Growing Outward", which is basically book 7 of the Game Changers series if it was about Luca Haas. In that fic, Luca moves in with Ilya for his rookie year and slowly gets adopted by Hollanov. He also starts to develop a crush on fellow rookie, Eric Young. Some people wanted some scenes from Eric's perspective, so here we are!

    This scene is briefly alluded to in Chapter 13: Navigating of "Growing Outward" from Ilya's perspective, but this can be also read as a cute stand-alone fic if you really wanted to.

    Hope you enjoy :)

  14. 5 times the Centaurs (and Harris) stand up for Shane +1 time they didn't need to.

    Weakly, he protests, “Hey, I wasn't going t–”

    “I'm letting you off easy,” Evan says, pulling his hand back. He folds his arms over his barrel chest and glowers down at the man. “I get paid handsomely to protect that man. I take out guys bigger than me to make sure that he's good. His husband is also a big scary Russian who does not play about him. He's bound to come looking soon. So I'm giving you an out, pal. Take it.”

  16. Shane and Ilya have written their own vows for the wedding.

    -----

    “I cannot stop thinking about him. This slow fucking hockey player with the freckles. Since we were seventeen in Saskatchewan. In that car park. I cannot stop thinking about him. That car park and the gym that night after draft pick and all the hotel rooms and All Stars and all of my texts you never answered and all of the ones you did.” He takes a breath, confesses. “And when I drank a whole bottle of vodka after I won the Stanley Cup to stop myself from fucking texting you.
    “Was a terrible problem, then. When I was twenty. And twenty-two and twenty-four. Twenty-five. And I would think, this is going to kill me. I would think, then, that maybe I had spent more time wanting to see you when I could not than I had spent doing anything else. Even hockey.”

    ----

    Is Ilya going to tell Shane he has a weak backhand in their wedding vows? Yes, yes he is. Will Shane speak Russian? Did he secretly get help from Svetlana to prep for this? Is anyone going to mention the secret sex condo? Can Ilya avoid having to thank Scott Hunter in his actual vows? He’s certainly going to try.

  17. He went silent again, his brow furrowed so hard it looked painful. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He stood up, his hockey gear clanking loudly. "I have it. I see on internet. A man. He has jar. He has bubbles." Shane blinked. "Bubbles? Like... a fish?" "No," Ilya said, pacing the room like a caged bear. "He make life from dust. He mix powder and water. He wait. He feed it like baby. Then... BREAD." "Oh so baking, you want to try baking bread?" Shane asked skeptically. "Not just bake, Shane. Sourdough. Is complex. Is science. Is war with yeast." Ilya's voice grew passionate, his Russian accent thickening. "It is sour, like my childhood. It is hard crust, like my heart."

  18. "Okay, so let's say that what you're saying is correct, and he is in fact making heart-eyes at Hollander. That doesn't immediately explain moving to Ottawa for him, does it?" Troy asked, looking genuinely interested in Wyatt's theory.

    "We know Ilya, don't we? When that guy likes something then he is absolutely gone for it; look at how he treats Chiron. Just imagine. He develops a crush on Shane Hollander and then decides to do anything possible to get together with him. Even if it means moving across countries and joining a shit team.

    "You know… I'd be willing to see it." Bood relented. "He did start a charity with him."

    Or, the Centaurs figure out how down bad Ilya is for Shane, not realizing the feeling is mutual, and decide to try and bring them together with ridiculous plans.

  20. Shane has finally been added to the Ottawa WAGs group chat and is now officially expected to turn up to the social events, but he has more fun than he was ever expecting, and is happy to finally have friends who understand him. This is continuing on from the other works in this series so if you want full context please read the others, but I don't think it would be completely unreadable if you don't.
