    Summary

    “I’m here. I’m here,” comes through, finally. “Sorry, just- I’m here. What do you need?”

    “Just talk,” Ilya begs, not even caring how pathetic he sounds. “Please.”

    “Okay, okay,” Hollander breathes. “You know. I keep thinking. This isn’t right. There’s something fucking wrong.”

    “Of course there’s something wrong, Hollander! Your building is on fire!”

    “I fucking know, Rozanov!”

    Or:

    Pre-tunamelt, in peak situationship era, Hollanov’s building catches fire… with Ilya still inside.

    Summary

    Ilya is relieved when Shane seems to rally at least somewhat towards the end of morning skate, chasing after Ilya for the puck. Ilya gets it past Hayes, whoops, whirls around and sees Shane fall.

    For a moment, Ilya can’t move, and then he skates faster than he ever has in his life.

    He skids to a halt next to where Shane is slumped over on the ice and topples forward onto his knees.

    ---

    Shane tries to pretend to be fine when he's ill, until he can't. Luckily, he has Ilya to take care of him.

    Summary

    Shane doesn’t get laid out by Marlow, so his plans with Ilya after the game aren’t cancelled… that is until Shane overhears Ilya talking with his teammates, about him. Scared that what he overheard was true, Shane cancels their night together. Lucky for Shane, Ilya refuses to stay away.

    Summary

    They’d agreed on a plan. It was cautious. Designed to keep them safe. Laying the foundation for a future after hockey. It didn’t include Shane going nuclear one fucking day into pre-season, blowing up his entire life on something he should’ve expected to happen if he was being honest with himself.

    Or, when the long game falls apart, Shane and Ilya need a new plan. (Or or, from the ten year plan to the one week speed-run.)

    Summary

    In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in room 1410, nothing goes wrong, and everything plays out exactly as we know it.

    In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in before Ilya can leave—and the seven-year situationship never gets the chance to start. Instead, through the power of miscommunication, Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010. With better support, they make better decisions. Their rivalry fizzles out before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced instead by a beloved “bromance". In 2015, they come out to the NHL and the world.

    No one believes them.

     

    Or: Somehow, despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s horror.
