    Summary

    “I’m glad it’s us, at the top.” Ilya admitted, letting his legs spread a bit as he visibly relaxed. “All that noise, about me not being able to hear and your-”

    He motioned vaguely, and Shane finished for him, “Chronic pain?”

    “Yes, that.” he hummed, “Was all nonsense. You’re good at what you do.”

    Shane smiles, then. “I’m glad you think so.”

    “Not as good as me, obviously.” Ilya added, and Shane rolled his eyes. “Can’t be too nice to you, can I?”

    “Guess not.”

    Or,

    Shane Hollander has a chronic pain condition and Ilya Rozanov is deaf. This inevitably means that they're going to be compared to one another, and this is only made worse when they're drafted to rival teams The Montreal Metros and The Boston Bears as first and second pick.

    It was rare enough that mainstream sports received one disabled player but two? Drafted during the same season and always one-upping each other?

    Well, it was unheard of.

    Trinity shrugged. "So marry me."

    Whitaker stared at her. "You're a lesbian and I'm the opposite of a lesbian."

    "Like that's stopped people before," Trinity said.

    Summary

    In 2024, the Pittsburgh Penguins, headed up by Coach Robby Robinavitch, select Dennis Whitaker first overall in the NHL draft.

    In 1986, two generational talents, both with the ambitions of nations on their backs, meet for the first time at the 1986 World Juniors.

    What follows is history.

     

    In which: sports are political, health is political, and everything is political except for politics, which is about sports.
