Summary
"You will bend for me many times, I think, before this production is over."
Shane means to say no. He means to tell Ilya Rozanov—arrogant Bolshoi principal dancer and professional pain in his ass—to fuck off and stop moving set pieces without permission. Instead, he ends up on his knees in a dressing room, which is definitely not how the Royal Winnipeg Ballet’s stage manager is supposed to handle conflict resolution.
Three weeks until opening night. One impossible rivalry. And absolutely no way this ends well.
or: Ilya comes to Winnipeg for The Nutcracker. Shane tries very hard to hate him. The mindblowing hate-sex doesn’t help.

Summary
Five times the Centaurs show up for Pride Night on the road, imperfect and unscripted. Plus one time they do it at home, deliberately and out loud.
Takes place after The Long Game, once Shane has joined the Centaurs.
Featuring: rainbow tape, merch tables, fashion mistakes, friendship bracelets, and Pride as something you do, not something you announce.

On the night of the MLH awards, Ilya corners Scott Hunter on a quiet balcony.

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 tiny.
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.
In Juniors, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov are set up as hockey's biggest rivals. There's just one problem - after Shane unexpectedly drops out of the 2009 draft, they both end up being signed by the Boston Raiders. And, as it turns out, it's a lot harder to avoid your feelings for someone when you see them every single day.
