“Barrett, I fucked up,” he says.
“Roz?” Barrett sounds dazed.

“Roz, what's going on,” Barrett says.
Bozhe, he’s going to have to say the words.

Summary
Russians do not blush. Russians do not get sick. Ilya gets concussions. He gets stitches. He skates on cracked ribs and calls it fine. He does not get sick. Which is why, when he wakes up at three in the morning in the middle of June, shaking so hard his teeth knock together, his first instinct is irritation.

Summary
Christ. All he wanted to do tonight was curl up with Jackie on the couch but somehow he was instead looking down the barrel of a night at Rozanov’s.
Though… an evening of just him and Shane did sound really nice. Like how it used to be, back when Lily was just a mysterious girl in Shane’s phone, so far removed from anything real and tangible.
“You sure he wouldn’t mind?” Hayden asked. Not that he really cared if Rozanov minded, but it was the polite thing to inquire.
Besides, now Hayden was kind of curious to see the hole in which Rozanov inhabited. Maybe there’d be primitive cave drawings on the walls.
----
or; hayden finds himself at ilya rozanov's for the night with shane, sans ilya. with every physical memento around the house and every trace of shane in the corners, it's abundantly clear that his best friend is disgustingly and all-consumingly loved by his boyfriend. hayden finally understands too just why shane loves him right back.Bookmarked by An_Orchid

Summary
Over the course of the three days, there are plenty of opportunities to tell Shane about Moscow.
There’s dinner the first night. They’re having pasta and salmon and Ilya’s whining about the amount of chicken and beef they’ll have to eat now that bulking season is approaching. Shane says well, they’re high protein foods. Like Ilya isn’t also a professional athlete who’s been doing this for just as long as he has. That’s not what he shoots back, though. He says, lamb is a great source of protein but we never have lamb. Okay, good lamb’s hard to find. You know what has lamb? Pelmeni! We should get Russian take out sometime soon, Shane says. I’ve always wanted to try. And always means nothing in this sentence, because always is only as long as they’ve known each other for.
Forget about take out, Ilya could say then. The best pelmeni can only be found in the motherland. Russia, Moscow! I am going there in ten days for a box of my dead-dad’s things and maybe, my dead-mother’s suicide note. But of course, he doesn’t.

Summary
Ilya hadn’t known the video existed. If he had known, he would have paid someone to have it destroyed. Would have paid someone to murder Kuznetsov, maybe, just for redundancy's sake. But it was peak stupidity, to keep evidence of your homosexual perversion around in a country where that crime could get you sent to jail for several decades, and Ilya hadn’t thought that Kuznetsov would be that dumb.
Now here Ilya was, watching a video of his fourteen-year-old self on Twitter getting fucked by his former hockey coach.
So. There go the plans for the rest of his life.
-
Or: in 2018, during Ilya's last year with the Raiders, an old video is leaked on Twitter. Ilya reacts, or overreacts. Shane does, too.
