    Summary

    When asked in the past by curious sons of what happens when a person dies, Baelor Targaryen sat them down and patiently explained that the Faith of the Seven teaches them that the righteous are blessed in the Seven Heavens as long as they lead a virtuous life and repent for any sin committed. He had never questioned it himself.

    Falling to a blow by his brother's mace while defending what was right, even against his own family, Baelor should have been feasting in the Father's golden hall and waiting until the moment he would be reunited with his family. That did not happen.

    Instead, the former Prince of Dragonstone woke up far from home and everyone he knew, though the faces he found himself among were not unfamiliar to him. But what does it mean to find yourself in the pages of your family's own history books?

    Summary

    Continuation of episode 4/the club scene:

    “If I was dancing with you,” Ilya crowds Shane against the wall, hands coming up against the wall caging Shane in. “Would you let me push boring shirt up and run my hands all over you.” He leans in closer, ducking his head to look Shane straight on. He can feel Ilya’s breath on his face, the smell of vodka on his tongue.

    Shane’s heart is racing. It’s been so long since he’s been this close to Ilya off the ice. They’ve gone longer, but for some reason it’s felt like an eternity.

    “What are you…”

    “Would you tip your head back from the feeling of my hands running over your body?” He leans in further till his lips are ghosting over Shane’s ear, sending a shiver down his spine. “Would you let me kiss you? Suck on your neck?”

    “Rozanov,” Shane says as a warning that doesn’t carry one ounce of authority because it sounds more like a whimper than anything else.

    They shouldn’t be doing this. Shane shouldn’t be doing this. He left Ilya’s house that day for a reason.

    Shane has a girlfriend.

    They can’t be doing this.

    Or Ilya's teammates add "Jane" to the Boston WAG group chat in the height of their "no, we aren't falling in love, whatever do you mean" era (2014-2016-ish?).
