Summary
"The battle churned around when Steve finally fell. No one seemed to notice at first, no one until Robin looked at him- looking for what? To ask him something? Just to make sure he was still there? Whatever it was, it was forgotten the instant she realized he was on the ground."
Steve goes down in the final battle. This is just what happens next.
*Steddie if you squint*
Title from "Achilles Last Stand" by Led Zeppelin

Summary
Shane returns from the showers to find the locker room far more animated than when he left it. Everyone has their phones out, and when he sees Shane coming, JJ says, “Câlisse, Hollander, about fucking time! Ilya Rozanov got caught kissing a man.”
After the tuna melt debacle, but before Rose, Ilya makes the reckless decision to go to a gay bar to take his mind off of Shane. When photographs get published, Shane has a realization and devises a plan: he's going to ask Ilya Rozanov to marry him.
Ilya's going through enough without things he can't have being dangled in front of him. He needs to figure out a different way to avoid going home, because eventually Shane Hollander will realize what Ilya already knows: Ilya isn't worth what Shane wants to do for him.

Summary
“You shouldn’t have provoked him.”
“I can handle myself in a fight, Hollander,” Ilya bites back.
Then Hollander breaks, showing Ilya something other than the veneer of cool professionalism that, until now, Hollander has worn like armor.
“I don’t want to watch you get hurt!” he says, voice cracking with anger. “Do you not get that?”
---
Breakout pop star Ilya Rozanov is all that anyone can talk about. His music is phenomenal, he’s devilishly handsome, and he’s great with the ladies. Which means he frequently gets himself into trouble, until the stone-faced, no-nonsense Shane Hollander starts working as Ilya’sbabysitterbodyguard.Bookmarked by SparrowsLyre

Summary
“Should call you the Ottawa Puppies,” says the Toronto centre, Svensson. As an insult it makes no sense, so Ilya ignores it, until he continues, “Hear Hollander keeps you on a short leash.”
Ilya is the captain, so if anything, he should be holding the leash. In English, you can be singular or plural, but he knows what Svensson is trying to say. He is saying Ilya Rozanov, you are Hollander’s bitch.
“Only sometimes,” Ilya replies, grinning. He wins the face off.
OR: Ilya trains himself to be a very, very good guard dog for Shane.

Summary
Moderating the annoying youtuber’s livestreams was only ever meant to be a brief favour to her internet friend. Joining their team discord server was only ever meant to be a distraction. Pretending to be an old woman through it all was an accident. But as the 22-year-old tailor left running an ailing family business during a global pandemic, Sophie Hatter can be forgiven for making some questionable decisions along the way.
[Or: Sophie's strange lockdown hobby grows violently out of hand.]
