UPDATE: I am no longer dating Jane.

 

Ilya and Shane return to reddit.

Notes:

Welcome back 😎
This was originally where I planned on finishing this fic, but after rewrites and editing and seeing just how many of you really want Janebears identities to be revealed it's become clear to me I'm not done yet.
I'm not sure when the next and final work in this series will be out since I haven't even started writing it properly yet 🤷‍♀️ but do not worry I will be back.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

UPDATE: I am no longer dating Jane.

Sorry for very late update. 4 years ago I posted this https://www.reddit.com/r/BORUpdates/search/?q=Lesbians&cId=9dc784e6-2cbb-4465-9629-5b4943ee7663&iId=53c5d91d-4f4f-42e8-a027-2f68d51b1549 

I do not know if anyone from the original post will find this, but 4 years ago, I posted about my relationship with my rival Jane, and I have gotten many messages asking me to update. If you do not know what I am talking about, either read the post I linked or go away. 

A few weeks ago, you snitches sent my post to Jane after she posted this  https://archiveofourown.org/works/79322026/chapters/208320091#workskin about problems we were having at Christmas. It is a long story, but Jane and I talked, I almost died, then I came home and found my living room covered in candles and Jane with a ring. We are no longer dating because we are now engaged 🎉💍

      I knew I would be asked about this🤦🏻‍♀️No, I sold the property after Lily and I became official, and donated the proceeds toward charity. 

      I would like to clarify something because I’ve seen a lot of speculation around this. It was not some huge apartment complex. It was only a few condos and an industrial space, which I leased out during the day. In hindsight, I do regret my decision to purchase the property, and recognize the lack of consideration I gave to the struggle many face to access safe and affordable housing in cities like my own.

               We are planning on coming out and getting married around the same time, but we haven’t finalized an exact plan for either. We would rather not get married in secret, so we have been talking about publicly announcing our engagement not long before the wedding. 

               On the other hand, Lily thinks it would be funny to just post our wedding photos without any explanation, and I am not completely against the idea.

          Thank you for this comment! A lot of people seem to think I must know nothing about sports for some reason, and I have been wanting to clarify that I am the bigger hockey (and organized sports in general) fan than Lily.  As for my favourite player, do you mean of all time or out of active players? Some of my all time favourite include Sidney Crosby and Angela James. 

As for active players, I have been closely following the careers of talents like Shane Hollander, Hayden Pike, Matti Jalo, and Leah Campbell, and I guess Rozanov isn’t too bad either.

                             Here are a few of the songs that always remind me of Jane.

                             We found love- Rihanna for obvious reasons. 

                             A.T.u Ya Soshla S Uma. I listened to this song many times over the years while I was failing to push down my feelings for Jane. 

                             You’re Still The One- Shania Twain, because I am big sap who loves Jane very much. 

                             Hotel Room Service- Pitbull, because we have fucked in a lot of hotel rooms.

                  Jane’s real opinions of JaneBear fanfiction: 

[cropped screenshot] 

                  Jane: 

Why do they all assume I’m an only child? They’re right, but how do they know that??

And WHY AM I ALWAYS FROM THE US? This is defamation. 

Okay, I admit it's probably for the best privacy-wise, but like fuck off! I am not from fucking Texas!

Lily: 

So, you are enjoying the fanfiction I sent you?

     Jane: 

I mean, it’s still very weird to read about myself, but I think I get why you like it so much. 

Even though they keep writing me as an out-of-shape American with a million property developments.

                        Jane is so real for that. I, too, experience deep rage and disgust when someone on the Internet confuses me for an American.

     I am sorry. Most of my family also sucked growing up. I hope you find a new, supportive family like I was lucky enough to with my friends and Jane’s family. Sadly, we are not looking to adopt more children right now.

You guys must have been through so much to be together, so I gotta ask. Was it worth it?
