Is normal. Building is just excited. (And other lies Ilya told himself while wearing the captain's jersey) by Nullevoy

He waited. The ref held the puck.
Then, a sound echoed through the arena.
Maaaaaa.
Ilya froze. He looked at the ref. The ref looked at him.
From the Zamboni entrance, a goat trotted out onto the ice. It was a small, brown-and-white goat wearing a tiny, custom Boston scarf.

The captain's jersey is cursed, it takes a while for Ilya to notice. -

Summary
It wasn’t like he had to throw up, Ilya reasoned. It was just a bad habit, and he quit those all the time. But he was leaving the cottage in two days, and the thought of packing up this life with Shane into his carry-on and flying back to Boston alone was tying him in knots. He was just stressed, and vomiting made him feel lighter. He didn’t need to, though.
Or, a study of Ilya's recklessness and unhealthy coping as a foil to Shane's ED-coded behaviors, where he develops his own disordered habits. Chapter 1 follows the events of Heated Rivalry, but chapter 2 picks up after the events of the show during Ilya's first season at Ottawa, but with major canon-divergence from the books. This work is fully finished, just updating as I edit :)

Summary
His outstretched glove hangs there, frozen, as the noise of the arena mutates into a ringing buzz. Then he’s moving, pushed away by Marlow, and then Boston’s goalie. There’s a flurry of movement, a trainer with a towel, more blood dripping onto the ice, and he just. Stands there. Staring.
Ilya is helped off the ice. Shane doesn’t even tap his stick.
Remember when Sidney Crosby caught a puck with his jaw? That doesn't happen to Shane. That happens to Ilya.

Summary
If there’s ever been any doubt in his mind just how much Shane loves this man, it vanishes with the glossy blankness of Ilya’s expression. Blood from a stone indeed.
“My father was very fair,” Ilya says immediately, and it’s got the rigid, almost mechanical emphasis of something practiced a thousand times. “If I was bad, I pay price. No problem.”
“I think maybe we have a different definition of the word fair.”
“Yes,” Ilya admits. “Probably. Shane thinks so.”

Summary
“I’m sorry, buddy,” he says, “I should’ve known you weren’t feeling it.” Shane finally looks at him. He makes a low, unfamiliar sound, vibrating through the water. It is confused and searching, a sound Hayden doesn't hear from him often.
Somewhere deep in the facility, a heavy impact reverberates through the walls, metal groaning under the strain. Ilya. Hayden closes his eyes. Ilya is bigger, faster. And he wants to kill Shane.
//
Hayden thinks the new wild mer in the aquarium, Ilya, is trying to murder his best fish friend, Shane. Turns out he's got it all wrong, and murder is the last thing on their minds.Series
