    Summary

    Hal walks over to the fruit bowl.
    Studies it, in silence.
    The rotten fruit, hiding under the thin veneer of ripe fruit. The rot, slowly corrupting the façade.

    That's uncharitable. It was never a façade. Not really. There's nothing new, aside from the obvious. It's all just... been allowed to be dialed up to it's natural state of five.

    He allows his lips to press thinly together, at that thought.
    Allowed to be dialed up to it's natural state.
    That's the part Hal finds most painful.

    Summary

    This is a flaming dumpster filled with CSS and HTML experiments. It's not instructional, but I post the code and my own explanations for both our sakes. Feel free to steal the code or ask me questions- I don't know what I'm doing. :)

    (Pics are mine though)

    Chapter 5 is probably what you're looking for ;)

    I'm not going to say I take requests, but I'm always looking for inspiration.

    It seems I've broken Ao3 yet again. I can no longer add more code to my work skin so we're moving on to part two!

    Summary

    “Why did we let Harris rope us into this?” Shane mutters as he fidgets with the unbuttoned collar of the shirt underneath his half zipped jacket, and then fiddles with the first button for a bit. “Should I button it up?”

    “If you want to look like a boring accountant, sure,” Ilya replies, taking Shanes’s hands into his own and kissing his knuckles. He looks up at his husband through his lashes, playing coy, and is satisfied to see a dusting of pink on his cheeks as he looks down at their hands. Ilya keeps his lips pressed to Shane’s hand as he says, “We let Harris do this because he is smart and amazing at his job, and because Yuna says it is ‘good for our public image’, makes us seem ‘approachable’.”

    There’d been more than ‘seeming approachable’, of course: with the specialized media in a frenzy over Shane leaving the team that drafted him and that he’d captained to not only back-to-back Stanley Cup wins but to a third one just the season prior following his being outed as both gay and being involved in a long-term relationship with Montreal’s public enemy n°1 on top of that, they had needed to do something to control the narrative, to sway the public in their favor.

    Summary

    Shane is stooped over to strap on his shin guards when his phone buzzes once in Hayden’s hand.

    He doesn’t mean to tap the notification.

    And oh god, does he wish he could un-tap the fucking notification.

    Because why the fuck has Lily, Shane’s mysterious Boston hook-up of several years (no matter how fervently he denies it), sent him a picture of a fucking sonogram.

    Black and white, blurry, and undeniably baby-shaped.

    Ilya makes a joke, Hayden breaks Shane’s phone, and a comedy of errors ensues.

    He’s already in the room, shutting the door behind himself as quietly as he can before he realises that not only is there someone other than Shane in the room, but there are three someones other than Shane.

    And, as if he hasn’t already fucked up spectacularly, the someones happen to be the Hollanders and Hayden fucking Pike.

     

    // or; Ilya visits Shane in the hospital and meets his parents. He's traumatized and grieving, everything hurts, and Shane takes after his mother.

    Summary

    Scott doesn’t think he wants to be in some secret gay group chat with Hollander and Rozanov, but honestly, it would be kind of nice to speak to guys who got it, like really got it—the pressure to excel, the claustrophobia of locker room culture, the unending scrutiny of the press.

    Or, Scott clocks Hollanov at the 2017 All-Stars Weekend, just like he did in 2011, and this time he tries reaching out to connect with Shane.

    Sarah
    Does anyone have the number for Shane's girl from Boston? I feel bad that they've been seeing each other for this long and we've never added her here.

    Jackie
    Oh good point! Let me ask Hayden.

    Jackie has added Lily to the conversation

    Or: Ilya Rozanov is, apparently, one of the girls.

    Summary

    “I have ways of remembering who I am,” Azune says. “Of keeping both of us safe. Of keeping the body safe. I can bear you without losing myself, if you trust me.”

    Bolaire shakes his head vehemently. “You don’t know what I am—not truly.”

    “I know exactly what you are,” Azune says, soft but unyielding. “You are my friend, and Hal’s friend—but you don’t want to hear that right now, so let’s speak on your terms:

    “You are a weapon. But more than that: you are a weapon that wields itself. A weapon doesn’t need to understand its cause, but the wielder does, or the force behind it ends up warped and wasted. You want to fight for what you feel for Halandil Fang? Good. Let me help you name it.”

    Summary

    Every morning is the same.

    Colt wakes up with a pounding headache, the fuzzy taste of a good hangover lingering at the back of his throat and an empty bottle of old beer resting coldly against his cheek. He’s got sand in places where he’s pretty fucking sure he shouldn’t have sand, and the entire beach looks and feels like an unfamiliar, alien landscape.

    Every morning is the same.

    Until it's not.

    (NaNoWriMo fic I wrote back in 2021 which I promptly forgot about, oops. Better late than never, I guess.)

    Buttons flies happily all day long over his beloved ocean, practically without rest. Being a seagull, he can house two souls in his being, helped by the sun, the wind and the force of the sea. But during the night he loses his bird form, transforms into a human again and needs to sleep to recover his strength.

    It's then when Izzy can wake up, his soul is free to travel through our world, taking advantage of the paths that Buttons has left imprinted in the real world.
