    Summary

    Ilya can’t be realizing, at nearly thirty-five years old, that he isn’t as happy with who he is as he thought he was.

    Because then, what? What is he supposed to do with that realization, except grieve? Should he mourn a life he might have had if his childhood hadn't been the way it was?

    He has Shane now, and Shane loves him just the way he is, just as he's always known Ilya. This life led him to Shane, and being able to build something with him is the best thing that's ever happened to Ilya. He can’t, ever, fuck this up. He will always try fold himself into smaller pieces to preserve this.

    But I don’t want to have to do that, his heart shouts at him. I don't know if I can do that anymore.

    Or: Ilya Rozanov fights against and then accepts the fact that there's no such thing as being too late to learn more about yourself, and still be loved.
