    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is having a very good night. He’s scored a goal, his edges are perfect, and his chirping of the Vegas Golden Knights’ roster is reaching art-form levels of arrogance. But hockey is a game of physics and ruts in the ice, and it only takes one meaningless check in the third period for Ilya’s season to shatter in a single, sickening crack.

    Three hundred miles away, Shane Hollander is forced to watch the replay in a silent equipment room.

    When Shane finally breaks and calls Boston forward Cliff Marlow, he expects to be met with confusion or hostility. Instead, he finds that the Boston Bears have been keeping a secret for years— and Shane starts to realize the differences between Montreal and Boston span further than he was ever ready for.

    What follows is meddling teammates who insist on doing laundry, PT that involves more sitting and standing reps than really feels necessary, and a boyfriend who is one research paper away from a medical degree. Plus, so much kale.

    Or: The one where Ilya breaks his leg, the Bears decide they love Shane Hollander, and everyone argues over who gets to be who in NHL 18.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is not, by any means, supposed to be a poet. It was never in the image that he had slowly chiseled and etched throughout his life, a sculptor carving the marble statue of his perfect future self. Never, in any of his careful, precise whittles and scores, did poetry appear. Not when he was shaping his jawline, or molding the set of his shoulders, or threading the ridges of his veins. No one practical, when thinking up a career for themselves, produces ‘poet’ as a prospect.

    In some ways, however, poetry has always been a piece of Shane. A piece of who he was before, a piece of who he is now, and a piece of who he's always been, the marble figure which was waiting to be freed from its slab all along.

    If only he could display this true marble statue of who he is, the poet, where he wanted, in what pose he wanted. No, instead he had to be hired by Ilya Rozanov as his little entertainer so he could pose him instead.

    or:

    Ilya, a rich model who's desperate to impress some artsy girl he's trying to fuck, hires Shane, a broke poet who's a little pretentious about his literary work, to be his private poet for parties.

    Summary

    Shane's been shitting bricks all week. Hitting the ice in his hometown, for their home opener while repping his hometown for the first time since he was a teenager is something completely different from his thousands and thousands of other face offs.

    He's really not ready for how they welcome him home, in return.
     

    Just a little blip about Shane's first game with the Centaurs in a happy way

    Summary

    imagine Heated Rivalry but with a slapdash of magical realism, ghosts, and the slowly dawning realization of just how much Shane and Ilya have to gain, if only they could figure their shit out. featuring: the most supportive team in the world (the Bears), the seething underbelly of malice (Montreal), and three tiny babies (boston's rookies), who just want to meet their stepmom.
