    Summary

    Several years into Rozanov’s career, ESPN hires a reporter fluent in Russian.

    Suddenly able to answer questions fluently and with a wide vocabulary, Rozanov’s interviews go viral. Hockey fans around the world get a new look at what they thought about Boston’s #81. This changes not only his public persona, but his whole life.

    Inspired by the look on NBA star Nikola Jokić’s face when he was asked a question in his native Serbian and my own struggles learning a new language.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov hoped he would be a neutral, a disappointment to his father.
    "A Level 10 dominant. Even higher than me. Ilya, you are destined for great positions, great things."
    But instead, Ilya had breathed through the heat, the pain and directly stared at his father with a fury unmatched for a 13 year old –when he spoke, he held no emotion in his voice, or face.
    “I want to skate and play hockey. I am going to practice, father."

    Two weeks into the age of 17, Shane Hollander had woken up with his entire body burning, every muscle in his body cramping in pain until his mother had sensed it, and rushed to him.
    “No, no. No. No.” He crawled to his knees on the bed, his entire body spasming. “No!” He yelled. “Mom, get me to a doctor. Today. I’m going on blockers. I have ice in three hours, then I have to go to school, and I have high impact training at 6. I cannot.”
    Yuna had cupped her son’s cheek, completely calm and stoic in his panic and anxiety.
    “Mom, I have hockey!” He yelled in panic, and in pain as he groaned in pain, his muscles rebelling.
    “...Level 10.” He repeated, just to make sure his brain wasn’t fucking him over. “A level 10, submissive.”

    Summary

    When Ilya Rozanov goes down on the ice, the Boston Bears are already moving to defend their captain. No one expects Shane Hollander, captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, to be the one who throws the first punch.

    Or: the Boston Bears figure out Ilya and Shane’s relationship first—and decide that instead of letting their captain move to fucking Ottawa, they’ll just kidnap a his boyfriend instead. Shane Hollander would make a better Bear anyway.

    Summary

    Ilya is plummeting to his death when he closes his eyes, heart full of regret.

    When he opens them in what feels like just a second later, he is standing outside a rink in Regina, Saskatchewan. There’s a banner on the building across the street:

    World Junior Hockey Championship 2009.

    What?

    Summary

    When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
    ____

    Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.

    “Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”

    “Mom,” Shane managed.

    “Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”

    Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

    Summary

    “Cat fur?”

    Ranpo nods enthusiastically. It looks like the whole situation is more fun than anything else to him, whereas Atsushi still feels quite worried and confused.

    “Seems like our ability user wasn’t one, after all. And that our dear Dazai got turned into a cat!”

    Dazai nullifies abilities, not witchcraft.

    Or: Dazai gets turned into a cat and is picked up by none other than his former partner, Nakahara Chuuya.

    Summary

    Dabi is in the strange position of hiding from his past by being really, ridiculously obvious to everyone from his past on national TV. With the League bar a smoking ruin, he jumps straight from The Bachelorette into Bachelor In Paradise with the hope that the program’s “secret” location and army of bodyguards will keep him from being kidnapped a second time… or. Well. A third time, really. He just needs to play it cool, but that’s hard when Hawks has followed him to Paradise too, and Dabi can’t seem to concentrate on any of the other contestants.

    Hawks is in the strange position of playing secret bodyguard for the man he’s fallen for, because the only other informants for the HPSC’s darkest secrets have either disappeared or been killed. This piles more angst on top of his already-confusing crush. Is he even allowed to have a crush? Emotions are hard. Hawks is suffering.

    Meanwhile Natsuo is horrified but vindicated when he learns that the details of his brother’s death were forged; half of the U.A. staff is on the hunt for Oboro Shirakumo, who called into a radio show despite being dead for over ten years; and the League may not be villains, but they don’t take an insult laying down.

    Summary

    “The people are angry,” one advisor seethed. “They’re hurt, afraid, and they are demanding reparations. Some even go so far as to demand that the savages assimilate into civilized society, that we deliver an ultimatum.”

    “What if we compromised, and made an attempt to obtain reparations and a peace treaty?” Zelda made a point to draw her eyes across each man seated at the table.

    Her father’s hand stilled at his beard, face cast as if shadowed by an autumn storm. Finally, after what felt like years of silence, he stroked his beard thoughtfully.

    “It will be so.”
    -
    While they may not have negotiated peace, the war chief reflected, he had a piece that would guarantee it squirming in his grasp.

    Summary

    Cheng Xiaoshi spends the next several minutes just staring at the photograph, his finger running gently down the curve of Lu Guang's sunlit features. His mother's voice sounds from the back of his head.

    The photograph is a window into the photographer's soul. Look, baobei, what does this photo tell you about the person who took it? What emotions do they feel?

    Attraction. Longing. Desire. It might as well be written in Sharpie over Lu Guang's face, big bold characters in Cheng Xiaoshi's handwriting.

    Fuck. He really has been blind.

    Over the course of a year, Cheng Xiaoshi learns to see what's been right in front of him this entire time. (Or, familiarity as a love language.)

    “You sound like a mortal.” She said, with the faint glimmer of amusement in her eyes. Zagreus chortled too, but then fell silent. Nyx gave him a knowing look. “What is it, my child?”

    “You said the curse is tied into my godhood, right? What if…” The words tasted unnatural in his mouth, a blasphemy before they could even take shape in the air. Zagreus coughed them out regardless. “What if I could shed my divinity? What if I became a mortal?”

    --
    Or, despite being a god, Zagreus keeps running out of time. A "Zagreus Becomes Mortal" AU.
