Summary
“I don't think I can keep pretending I don’t like you anymore.”
The words barely have time to sink in before Ilya fires back, “You don’t like me.”
Too quick. Too practiced. And not enough to make Shane back off.
“Yeah, I do. I think I like you maybe a little too much.”
Forget the band-aid. Shane is ripping him open and doesn't even realize it.
After two months of complete silence that follow after Shane runs out on Ilya, they finally get to talk to each other in Tampa Bay during the All-Star game weekend.

Summary
"What are you talking about, Hollander?"
Shane is pressed against Ilya's back, head propped on his hand. One careful finger strokes Ilya's left cheek, then taps twice.
"I mean the beauty mark."
Ilya shifts onto his back and looks up at Shane. "I thought you meant the fucking."
"Don't be a dick." Shane chuckles and swats at his chest lightly. "I want to know the Russian word for beauty mark."
A stolen hour of closeness, seen through the eyes of Ilya Rozanov.

Summary
For many decades, Rhyme's life hasn't exactly been a stroll in the park. After escaping her tormentors, defeating the Netherbrain, and finally regaining her body half a year later, she is now happily married to Gale and enjoying the quiet, almost boring days of domesticity. Life is better than it has ever been.
So what if the little magic home improvements that Gale has installed start failing one by one? That's nothing to be upset or worried about… right?

Summary

“We should make a tradition out of this gathering!”

A Guide to the NHL/MLH: Everything But the Hockey by facingthenorthwind (spacegandalf), SiladhielLithvirax
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Men's Hockey RPF

Summary
What the hell is a "free agent" and why is Ilya Rozanov one at the end of Heated Rivalry? Would Cliff be suspended for that hit on Shane? How many times a season do Montreal and Boston play each other? How is the order of draft picks determined? How do hockey trades work?
All this and more is answered in this guide to how the NHL (and thus the MLH) works! This isn't about the rules of playing hockey, but instead the rules of the league itself. Even the boring bits can become great prompts for fic if you believe in yourself!
If you're writing Hockey RPF, this guide makes sure to point out where the NHL and the fictional book series/show differs, so it still works as a simplified guide for that too!

Summary
This fic lives in the spaces Rachel Reid leaves quiet. It follows Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov from the end of Heated Rivalry through The Long Game, then imagines a future shaped by love, community, and consequence.
Chapters 1–16 focus on the four-year gap between Heated Rivalry and The Long Game. These chapters trace the long, uneven process of staying in love while being forced apart by careers, secrecy, and fear. They linger on stolen moments, missed calls, private rituals, and the emotional labor of choosing each other over and over again after committing exclusively to each other.
Chapter 17 is a deliberate rewrite of a key scene from The Long Game that I couldn’t live with as written.
Chapters 18–45 imagine what comes after The Long Game in the upcoming Unrivaled era through my thoughts. This section centers on Shane and Ilya learning how to live publicly, build a community. Luca Haas becomes a vital part of that future, not as a threat, but as proof of how love expands rather than divides. Together with their growing chosen family, they confront an antagonistic podcast, TopShelf.

Summary
There had been a tragedy. The Ottawa Centaurs' plane had crashed in northern Georgia, during the course of their flight from Carolina to Tampa. They didn't know much else yet. All NHL activities were suspended for the next seven days.
Wait, what?
At seventeen, Shane Hollander met the love of his life. At twenty-nine, gravity took him away.
Shane wishes he’d died, too.

frequently, secretly fond of each other. by milominderbinder

Summary
Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, “I like both. Is secret, okay?”
“Okay,” Hollander says, voice cracking.
He doesn’t say anything else. The air’s so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; it’s the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves men’s bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.
Nobody knows why Shane Hollander dropped out of the 2009 draft at the last second, and a year later it stuns the whole hockey world when he's signed by the Boston Raiders. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston - but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.

Summary
In the crumbling depths of the Underdark, Astarion has carved out a fragile sanctuary for the spawn he freed—and now leads. Gale, no longer a divine errand boy and with no adventure left to occupy him, arrives seeking purpose—and finds only rot. He tells himself it’s altruism. It might even be friendship. But Gale’s never been good at lying, not even to himself.
Can he survive what the Underdark demands of him? What Astarion wants from him? Or is he simply chasing redemption in all the wrong places?
