    Summary

    Getting information out of Ilya about his family was like getting blood from stone. Maybe harder. It had been one of the first things Shane had noticed about him. Any questions about his parents – the kind of typical things Shane’s mom had taught him to ask to make polite conversations – would result in brusque, emotionless answers or, worse, actual anger.

    But somewhere out there was Irina’s granddaughter. The only remaining blood relative that Ilya gave a shit about.

    And Ilya could never go back, which was Shane’s fault.

    So that bothered him.

    Summary

    "9-1-1, what's the address of your emergency?"

    He freezes, his mind far too scrambled by panic and pain to answer.

    "Hello?"

    "I-I don't know," he says, realizing that he's shivering violently.

    "Alright, sir, can you give me your name?"

    "Shane."

    He can't tell them his full name. He isn't supposed to be here.

    "Okay, Shane, can you tell me what's going on?"

    "They broke in," he says, his voice just barely above a whisper.

    Or

    Shane is injured during a game and he gets left behind while the Voyageurs are on a road trip. Ilya invites him to stay in Boston. Neither of them anticipates what comes next.

    Summary

    It was over. Arthur was here. The Lamia was slain. Gwen was alright. The knights would be back to normal. It was over.

    Able to relax for the first time in days, he let his knees buckle and his back slide down the wall. He hit the ground, and his vision turned to mist.

    Merlin didn't make it out of his encounter with the Lamia unscathed, or so Arthur thinks when he slays the beast and finds Merlin slumped against the wall and bleeding. When he learns the true source of Merlin's injuries he is furious. He does his best to push that anger away though, because being there for Merlin matters far more right now.

    or

    The Lamia episode but Merthur, and the knights actually injured Merlin.
