    Summary

    “Rozanov needs a place to stay. His visa won’t allow him to go home to Russia over the break, and we don’t have the cash to put him in a hotel.”

    Did the Harvard dorms completely shut down over the winter break? What about the dining hall? Shane supposed he didn’t really know. He’d never stuck around to find out, when he was younger. 

    “Okay?” 

    Coach raised his eyebrows. “So, he’s staying with you.” 

    Shane’s eyes went wide. 

    “What?” 

    “Come on, Captain,” Wiebe looked down his nose at Shane. “Try not to look too thrilled.”

     
    *

     
    or, Shane's a senior captain with an empty house over winter break. and Ilya's the freshman who will be crashing his Christmas.

    Summary

    “Cliff,” Rozanov said.

    Interesting. He only ever used his first name when he wanted something.

    “I need a favour.”

    Called it.

    “What can I do for you, Roz?”

    “I need you to punch me.”

    Cliff stared. He stared some more.

    "Why?"

    “Shane hasn’t let me fuck him since the bar, it’s been too long and he always rides me when I have to see the medics.”

    A beat.

    Another beat.

    Then Cliff absolutely lost it.
    Or

    5 times people clocked Shane and Ilya being absolutely unhinged about each other and the 1 time it was encouraged.

    Or

    Cliff Pov: Ilya pays Cliff to break his nose.

    Yuna Pov: Ilya calms down shane from a panic attack (with biting :) )

    Scott and Kip Pov: What do you mean i remind you of your brother? What do you mean you don't know your a bottom?

    Summary

    Shane Hollander thought he’d retire a Metro.

    Instead, he gets a phone call about cap space, strategic realignment, and how loyalty looks great in a press release but terrible on a spreadsheet.

    Montreal trades him.

    Ottawa waits with the porch light on.

    Between a late-night highway drive, a captain with pale curls and a competitive streak a mile wide, and a press conference full of carefully polished lies, Shane discovers that maybe losing a franchise means finally finding a home.

    Also, he is absolutely not getting first line centre without a fight.

    Summary

    "He hates me." It was Rozanov's only reply, frail and desperate and entirely unbelieving. Scott couldn't help but scoff.

    "No he doesn't." Rozanov kept his steely gaze trained on the ground, making a few attempts to speak before words actually found him.

    "That is what he said?" His shaky words were a timid mix of devastated and hopeful, and Scott found himself fighting back watering eyes of his own.

    "More than once." Scott confirmed. "Something tells me that you don't hate him, either." With that, the dam broke.

    or:

    Scott's still looking for his hotel room after talking to Shane Hollander. He finds Ilya Rozanov, instead.
