    Summary

    “I feel really good about this kid, I think he could be great on your wing, he just needs some help settling in. Someone to show him the ropes.”

    “Yes.”

    The line went silent for a moment. Ilya wasn’t really sure why his coach felt the need to run this by him.

    “Rozanov,” his coach said at last. “I want him to live with you.”

    Ilya blinked, then nearly shouted into the phone. “What?”

    Summary

    Soulmarks are supposed to be a blessing, or so people say. Shane disagrees.
    They appear as the first words your soulmate will ever speak to you, written on your skin in your soulmate's handwriting.
    But Shane's is a simple and underwhelming "ok." So mundane he has long since stopped noticing the words when they're spoken to him.

    "I'm not sure you're supposed to smoke here" Shane said as he approached the Russian player.
    "Ok"
