Summary
It took several weeks for Zoro to talk to Sanji in Wano. It didn’t have anything to do with how beautiful Sanji looked in his lemon-yellow yukata, or how happy every one of his customers seemed to be, or how busy all that cooking kept him. Nope. Nothing to do with it at all.
OR: Zoro and Sanji have always communicated best without words

Summary
In another world, in another life, his victory would have been complete. He would have triumphed over the Master and the padawan, and his place at his Master's side as a true Lord of the Sith would finally be his. With Darth Bane's vengeance so close at hand, Maul was meant to be his Master's right hand at the head of the New Sith Empire. Darth Maul, the Fist of Sidious, that was his destiny.
It was not his destiny to be dragged to the Jedi’s citadel of self-righteousness by an apprentice no older than himself.OR
The first time Maul and Obi-Wan meet, a connection is forged. What it is for, and why it has appeared remains to be seen.

Summary
"Too many secrets can poison a well."
"What?"
"Something my mother used to say."
"Our mothers were very different."Setting up an Inquisition would be twice as easy if the Herald of Andraste would let someone, anyone, refer to her that way. But Hestia Trevelyan is a rebel mage first, a sister second, and prophet a distant third. If she's going to save the world as they know it, she'll first have to learn to trust the ones around her. And it's been a long long time since Hestia has trusted a templar.
Cullen wants two things, a new life away from his past and for the Inquisition to succeed. Those are already difficult tasks without The Herald of Andraste getting in his face, reminding him of all the mistakes he'd made. Hestia Trevelyan is a good liar and even better rebel, and Cullen wishes she would give him a break, or at least a chance to get her out of his mind.
The world may be ending, but the story is just beginning. They'll have to find a way to work together, or die trying

Summary
It does mean missing out on things like barbeques and team dinners sometimes, but it’s not as if he would have been able to participate anyway. At this point in his life, risking someone not taking his allergies seriously would mean potentially missing games, which makes it unacceptable. Jackie always makes sure he has a dish or two that’s safe when he’s over at their house, but if he was going to be the one guy sitting and drinking ginger ale instead of taking part in sharing nachos or Korean barbeque or burgers or any other delicious thing he goes in knowing he can’t have anyway, there’s no point in making a fuss about it. He eats at home, has a drink with everyone else, and he calls it a day. Easy. Safe. Foolproof.
But also the reason it doesn’t occur to him that he hasn’t actually told Ilya about any of his allergies until it becomes immediately relevant five days into being at his cottage together.
(how ilya learns about shane's food allergies) (and how shane learns what it's like to have someone who always saves him a seat at the table) (and who also makes sure there's food he can eat on the table to start with)

Summary
A butterfly flapping its wings in one part of the world may cause a hurricane somewhere else.
A conversation with Rose Landry leads Shane Hollander to make a decision that he may ultimately live to regret. Far from the eye of the storm, he crashes along the waves, beaten down by wind and rain.
Ilya Rozanov lies in the eye of a hurricane. Sometimes he drifts just close enough to the horizon to get into trouble. Just dangerous enough to keep life interesting - enough to remind himself that he's still alive.
A safe harbor can be found for both, if they can only get there.
--
Or, Post Tuna-Meltdown but before All-Stars in Tampa, Shane comes out to the Metros and it does not go well. He comes up for air in Boston.

Summary
When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
____Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.
“Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”
“Mom,” Shane managed.
“Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”
Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

Summary
“Hollander’s Metros have had a challenging few years, with back-to-back knee injuries and a concussion keeping the two-time Stanley Cup winner and Olympic gold medalist off the ice for three consecutive postseason runs. Hollander is apparently back to fighting trim, but everyone’s wondering if that will still be true come April. The Metros have promised that they’re behind their franchise star one hundred percent, but there are signs they might be hedging their bets. The Metros announced last week that they have penned a deal with San Francisco’s dynamic young Russian star, center Ilya Rozanov. The move has sent shockwaves through MLH, as San Francisco was widely expected to sign a contract extension with Rozanov, who became a restricted free agent in June.”
