Summary
Someone’s posted a shaky video from the stands, just behind the whole altercation. It’s close enough to catch the snarl on Rozanov’s face as he charges up the steps. He’s so pretty, Shane thinks faintly. The video starts too late to show what set him off, but it catches the tail end of what the man is yelling, the things he's saying about Shane, before pivoting to calling Rozanov a cunt and bitch and a pussy instead.
Rozanov drops his gloves for Shane. He wishes he could just be grateful, but it feels a little bit like the end of the world.

Summary
Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”
“Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.
“No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”
“Go fuck yourself.”
+++
Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.
And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

“I'm serious. We can’t just—what, you want us to dress up and wander into Times Square like idiots? To celebrate the New Year? In public?”
“See?” Rozanov grins wider. “You already understand concept."
“You are unbelievable.”
“And you,” Rozanov counters, leaning in just enough to steal Shane’s attention again, “are very boring.”
---Shane and Ilya, in the middle of their will-they won't-they, ring in the New Year together.

Summary
“It makes sense for you to go to Ottawa,” Cliff said slowly. “Because it’ll be a lot closer to Shane Hollander.”
This time, Ilya did drop his beer.
“Fuck.” Ilya moved to clean it up, Cliff’s words bouncing around in his head. “Sorry, the bottle was damp, my fingers slipped, I-”
“Hey, it’s okay, man,” Cliff said, bending down to help him. “The bottle and…the other thing.”
“The other thing.” Ilya gulped.
“Yeah. Look, I’m sorry, man, I didn’t mean to spring it on you like that, but I know, Roz. Shane is your Montreal girl. Your Jane, right?”
or
Ilya tells Cliff that he is not re-signing with Boston, only to find out that Cliff has known about him and Shane basically the entire time.

Summary
When Shane was freshly sixteen, Yuna came home to find him freaking out by himself at the kitchen island.
He was perched on one of the bar stools with his entire torso slumped across the counter and his arms extended in front of him, hands balled into fists on the granite. His head was buried between his shoulders and he didn’t sound like he was breathing.
Yuna didn’t say anything for a solid thirty seconds. Alarms blaring in her head, she silently tossed her purse to the side and beelined for her son with her hands out to comfort him.
---
Or: Five times Yuna suspected Shane was gay, and the one time she finally found the right words to say.

Summary

Ilya Rozanov is the biggest hockey talent of his generation. So is Shane Hollander.
But over the years Ilya notices that the vicious media and the clamouring fans and some of his more foul-mouthed teammates treat Hollander differently than any other hockey player.

“I get kind of–” Shane makes a little whining noise in the back of his throat, tips his head toward the ceiling for a moment before looking back at Ilya. “I hate those fucking press conferences. I hate them, Roz, and sometimes it just feels like too much and I can’t–” One hand goes up to run through his hair, already a little mussed, and Shane gives it a slight tug, making a frustrated noise that Ilya hasn’t heard before.
And Ilya decides that’s enough.

Summary
Shane didn’t have an eating disorder— he wasn’t some teenage girl who saw a fat reflection staring back at her in the mirror. He just had a strict, nutritionist-monitored, macrobiotic diet that helped him maintain control when life felt unmanageable, which caused him enormous amounts of shame and distress whenever he broke it. That was totally different, and he really did not appreciate Ilya’s insinuations to the contrary.

Summary
His outstretched glove hangs there, frozen, as the noise of the arena mutates into a ringing buzz. Then he’s moving, pushed away by Marlow, and then Boston’s goalie. There’s a flurry of movement, a trainer with a towel, more blood dripping onto the ice, and he just. Stands there. Staring.
Ilya is helped off the ice. Shane doesn’t even tap his stick.
Remember when Sidney Crosby caught a puck with his jaw? That doesn't happen to Shane. That happens to Ilya.

Summary
Ilya wasn’t a quitter, but even he eventually had to admit defeat. If he kept this up, he’d probably end up with rug burn—hand burn?—on his dick.
He groaned and let his arm thunk down on the mattress at his side. What the fuck was wrong with him?
Maybe it was just a fluke. Yes, maybe his body knew there were much better places to come than in his own fist. Namely, in or on his husband.

"Rozy," Brian, the team doctor says, "talk to me, buddy. That puck clipped you pretty good, how’s the pain?"
Ilya blinks. He clenches his jaw against a wave of nausea. He rests his cheek on the ice, and the cold helps a little.
"Bad. Very bad." He swallows. "Is Shane here?"

A traitorous tear escapes the corner of Shane’s right eye, and he is helpless as he feels it track down his temple and onto Ilya’s chest.
