    Summary

    On very bad nights, Lyosha lets himself look. He pulls up KHL scores, reads articles about Dynamo’s powerplay. After a while, he wanders into articles about ex-KHL players who play for the MLH now. He’s a Dynamo diehard, of course, and prefers the KHL, but he’s a casual Valery Garipov fan, and it would not be a surprise to anyone that he occasionally keeps tabs on how the Puffins are doing. It would not be a red flag, to anyone watching.

    The Puffins are not doing so well, as it happens. Not like another team, that leads the league and dominates conversations, to the point that even articles about the Puffins can’t help talking about them. To the point that sometimes, sometimes, there are even stray pictures. Nothing that Lyosha will ever linger on. He is his father’s son. He lives in Moscow. He has a daughter who is fifteen.

    Summary

    Rose swallows, shifting underneath her. “Well, I mean, it—this doesn’t really count, right?”

    Svetlana’s eyes narrow. “How do you figure?”

    “We—we’re drunk, and, like. It’s just—girls being girls, you know?”

    Panic flickers in her chest, sours the mood a little. She’s not lying, really, or she doesn’t think she is. But there’s also something not quite right about it when it sits there in the space between them, a feeling in the pit of Rose’s stomach that jeers liar! anyway.

    Actress, maybe. It’s hard to tell the difference sometimes.

    Summary

    He didn’t even have to think about it anymore. If it ever came down to choosing, Shane would go to Ilya every single time-over the noise of his friends, over the disappointment of his team, over the expectations of his own family. There’d be no hesitation, no looking back. Ilya had chosen him with his whole life, and Shane would meet that devotion with his own, again and again, forever.

    Or a 3+1
    Three times Shane chose Ilya and the one time he wasn’t asked to

    Summary

    He wants to see Ilya with his own eyes, in person. He wants to ask him, invite him, to the cottage. He’s been rehearsing the conversation in front of the mirror for days. In his head, for weeks before that.

    The universe, as always, takes Shane’s carefully curated plan and curb stomps it.

    Because they never even make it to the rink.
