    Summary

    Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.

    So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

    Wyatt Hayes character study. Reminiscing about his time in Toronto and then Ottawa and budding friendship with Ilya as he realizes that Ilya and Shane are in love. Amazing character study, very interesting. Wyatt is so funny.

    “I could ask Roz, they’re friends.”

    “Does Roz know?”

    “That they’re friends?”

    The most hilarious exchange I've read in a fic by a mile.

    10/10. No noted.

    Summary

    “We had a wedding this weekend, Miss Emma! With Uncle Shane,” Ruby Pike announces during Monday morning circle time. Miss Emma nods and tries to play it cool. It was exciting when the Pike twins mentioned Uncle Shane. Like he was just their dad’s totally normal BFF instead of the greatest hockey player Canada had seen in two decades. But she wasn’t going to fangirl in front of the kids.

    “Well, it was a pretend wedding—” Ruby starts to clarify, but then Jade Pike interrupts her.

    “Uncle Ilya said if you do the rings it’s a real wedding.”

    Miss Emma’s eyebrows shoot up into her hairline. Uncle…Ilya? As in…

    “Uncle Ilya said the rings and kiss made it real so we should tell Daddy to get him and Uncle Shane a very, VERY expensive gift,” Jade continues.

    There’s that name again. Uncle Ilya. In the same breath as Uncle Shane. With the word kiss. That couldn’t be right…

    Or: Five times someone unexpected keeps Shane and Ilya’s secret, and one time they don’t have to. Featuring the Pike twins, Zane Boodram’s pregnant wife, Ilya’s neighbors, and more.

    Outsider POV fic. Several times people noticed that Ilya and Shane were in love but kept it to themselves. Super sweet. Very well written.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov never goes to the cottage.

    He goes home to Russia instead—and disappears from Shane Hollander’s life without a word.

    Years later, the news reaches him anyway: the Hollander family is gone, Shane’s career is over, and the boy who once lived and breathed hockey is learning how to exist in a body that no longer moves the way it used to.

    Ilya returns for a funeral he was never invited to, carrying years of silence, regret, and a love he never stopped feeling.

    Some wounds don’t close.

    Some love arrives too late to save anything—but still refuses to die.

    Very sad fic. Ilya didn't go to the cottage, he does back to Moscow. Years later Yuna and David die, Shane is paralysed and Ilya comes back. Sad but beautiful. Worth the pain.

    Summary

    It’s perhaps the sweetest Svetlana has ever known Ilyusha to be. She has always been granted access to the more affectionate side of Ilyusha, the one that he rarely shows to anyone else, but it was never anything compared to this. This tenderness, this adoration, that he gives so freely to Shane. It’s like her best friend is a completely different person right now, and she starts to wonder if maybe she was wrong earlier.

    Maybe, instead of being too boring for Ilyusha, perhaps Shane Hollander is giving him the space to become something soft. Something without walls, or masks, or armour.

    (Or, 5 times people doubt their love for each other, and 1 time they are certain of it.)

    Summary

    It was one of his favorite things to do. Watching his person play. Ilya was the most alive during it, and Shane just loved seeing him shine. In the arena, all the weight Ilya carried seemed to fall away, allowing him to be light.

    Shane’s eyes never left Ilya, and when it happened, he barely registered at first.

    It happened so fast. Suddenly the puck hit Ilya’s throat. Shane’s stomach dropped.

    Ilya couldn’t breathe.
