i've never needed a reason for keeping secrets from myself by blongblong

Summary
Shane’s immediate reaction is to say that he doesn't know when it started. He doesn’t know who his soulmate is. This is what he’s been telling himself for years, because if he stops for more than a second to think about how long he's been collecting little pieces of Ilya Rozanov, he thinks he'll spiral out of control.
He'll hit the deck like a firecracker dropped unceremoniously onto the sidewalk, burning wildly and spiralling haphazardly, until he's fizzled out with nothing left to show for himself but smoke, ashes, and the knowledge that his soul is bound to Rozanov's.
or:
shane spends twenty-five years not thinking about his soulmate. the drawer in his apartment filled with cigarettes, toothpaste, and awful t-shirts says elsewise.

Summary
Ilya’s debating whether to pull away when Hollander lifts Ilya’s fist to his lips and kisses over the broken skin, so carefully Ilya’s breath catches. He swallows, holding very still, until Hollander finally stops and looks at him. His eyes are bright.
Ilya doesn’t know how to be handled this way. He wants to step back, to chalk it up to Shane Hollander simply being a very nice guy, but he knows this is tenderness, and that’s not what’s between them.
Ilya Rozanov has never belonged to anyone but himself. An Ilya character study, tracing canon events.

Summary
“Lily,” Hayden says automatically. “You know about Lily?”
Something flickers across Rozanov’s face. His jaw twitches. “Yes, I know about Lily.” He raises his eyebrows.
Hayden feels like a complete asshole, all of a sudden. There’s just been too much going on to even think about Shane’s mystery girlfriend. “Shit, I should probably, like, call her, or something? I don’t know this girl at all, but Shane’s been obsessed with her for years. If she was watching the game, she would have seen him get hurt.”
“You don’t need to call her,” Rozanov says, and when Hayden glances at him, he still looks fucking miserable but now he’s rolling his eyes, a much more familiar expression of disdain on his face. “She’s sitting right here.”

Summary
Diminutive forms are usually emotionally colored and used in friendly and intimate communication. It's generally not appropriate for a foreigner to use these forms when travelling in Russia. If you are close friends, it may be ok.
When Shane can't sleep, he goes down Wikipedia rabbit holes.
or: if you can't figure out your situationship.... Google him.

Summary
Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.
So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.

Summary
He thinks about the list more and more.
He wants a new dryer, some new clothes, for Christopher to think he’s cool again.
He wants to pay the truck off, to fly his sisters out for a visit. He wants –
He wants to be happy. He wants a partner, he wants to be seen, he wants to feel like he has someone who can read his mind and knows his next move before he’s even decided to make it. He wants someone who loves Christopher as much as he does and doesn’t mind that Eddie’s a little screwed up, who doesn’t see him as a problem to be solved. He wants to be loved because, not despite.
He wants, wants, wants.

Summary
Missing Chris is less of an emotion these days and more of a physical entity. He’s sure everyone can see that he’s slowly hollowing himself out, that he can’t do much of anything else.
But when Jee laughs at him trying to get his tongue to touch his nose, and Mara loops one of her arms through his to keep him from tossing the rest of his cup in the garbage, Eddie feels solid again.
Maybe he likes yellow birthday cake ice cream after all.
(or, gerrard messes with the team's schedules and eddie 'i just drove my son to flee the state' diaz is the only option to watch mara and jee-yun after school on tuesdays, which, shouldn't be a problem at all, right?)

Summary
The rest of the world had faded away. There was just this: Ronan’s arms strong and sure holding him, Ronan’s smell of gasoline and sweat, Ronan’s body heat warming Adam up like a fire, Ronan’s voice whispering his name like a prayer. It was Ronan, just Ronan, and Adam never wanted to move away.

Summary
A love song. Who the hell was listening to such whimsy, amongst the murderers and the thugs of the Barrel?
(You are, and you’re the cruelest of them all.)
Kaz scowled into the darkness of the room. It’s not like he had much choice, unless he opened the window and shot the singer.---
Most sensible people avoid the Barrel during major celebrations, out of a healthy sense of self-preservation and fondness for their limbs and wallets. Kaz, on the other hand, does not have the luxury of avoiding everyone else's good cheer. What he does have is a useless gang full of teenage idiots, an irritatingly persistent three-legged dog, a few memories he'd rather forget, and a time limit.
