Summary
"I know Jesus says we're supposed to be more into giving than receiving or whatever, but I gotta say, I'm pretty into getting shit."
"Where the hell did you hear that?" he asks, bewildered. Ellie of all people, little heathen that she is, is the last person he would suspect of being religious.
As usual though, the little shit surprises him. "From the Bible," she says primly. "Acts 20:35 mother fucker."
Well he'll be damned.
———
Or: Ellie and Joel and their respective relationships with God, religion, and Tia Blake.
OR: I project my own feelings about religion onto Ellie and Joel (but mostly Ellie).

Summary
“Well, it’s, you know, the colors,” he says, assuming she’ll know what he means.
“The colors…” she repeats back slowly, like he’s an idiot.
“The colors of your people,” he elaborates, hoping he doesn’t sound as awkward as he feels.
He has no such luck. “Are you having a stroke right now man? Do I need to go get Dr. Sargenti?” she asks, concerned, moving to sit up.
———
Or: Ellie, Joel, and Ellie's steadily growing collection of Littlest Pet Shops.

Summary
“I need you to get me a pot—”
“Just one?” he asks sarcastically, and it takes her an embarrassing amount of time to figure out what he means.
It’s only then that Ellie realizes that this probably isn’t the type of pot she’s supposed to be trading for at her age, and she spares a quick moment to mourn the death of her coolness.
***
Or: The love is stored in the cast iron cookware.

Summary
To be clear, Ilya is grateful the rookies aren’t growing up the way he did in the NHL. Ilya took the hazing to the chin – humiliation rituals, beat downs, grueling practices to prove he could “hang” with the big guns on the team.
That being said, there’s still some part of Ilya that balks at the request by the gaggle of rookies to watch The Iron Giant, a veritable children’s movie at the team’s latest movie night.
OR: Five times Shane and Ilya were the support system for the Centaur rookies they dreamed of having when they were younger.

Summary
Ilya was good at noticing things about people, and he was good at understanding them. Shane was not. That was okay. Shane had developed his own way of getting to know Ilya. It involved a lot of inane questions and, more importantly, no longer involved condoms.

Summary
Shane wanted to respect Ilya’s request for space. Shane wanted to get the fuck out of here. Shane couldn’t breathe.
Couldn’t move at all. He was frozen - from his lungs to his feet. Everything except his hands which were shaking. He should leave, but he wasn’t even sure how much longer his legs would be able to support him, and driving seemed like a bad idea in this state.
What if Shane stayed after the Boxing Day fight. Basically an exploration of the age old question - what if they just, like, talked about their feelings? (And also went to Bood's party after all).

Summary
Steve just moans at that, palming himself through his jeans. “Fuck,” he hisses, “yeah. Okay. I can show you. Need me to show you how, right? Need me to teach you?”
Eddie nods. The world feels sticky, syrupy slow. Like he’s stuck in honey. Feels good, sliding back off Steve’s lap. Off the bed, onto the floor. Onto his knees. He looks up, and Steve looks down at him.
Feels really, really good.
“Look at you,” Steve whispers. “You’re so sweet.”
