i love love loooove 'better than the fucking yankees' because shane's not just some hockey-obsessed jock, he's a straight up jock across the board. he's an all-rounder!!! he's a hockey player, and hockey players literally spend like 80-90% of their time talking about all the other sports they're watching. he watches sportscenter like it's the nightly news, has the baseball on in the background all summer. he's showing up at the olympics for sports simply because he knows the athletes, and as a top canadian athlete with his level of marketing and sponsorship, he's met and knows A Lot of athletes. he's getting invited to grand slam tournaments. he's reading all those high performing athlete biographies. he has an opinion on who's going to win the super bowl, who looks good in the nba, which teams will do best in the world cup, who's in form for the masters. in tlg he's participating in the great canadian pastime of putting on some late night australian rugby/aussie rules just for the sake of having some live sports running in the background. he and ilya put the tennis on later in the book for the same reason. that boy is a fucking jock!!!
shane being so earnest is basically a sledgehammer in a sense

wiping the drool from my mouth as i look at connor storrie and remember it's pride month: what do we think is in that big leather PURSE? 😍
“Shane fuck Shane help we fucked up, we lost Ilya, I swear he was here one second ago and now-“
“Haas, where are you right now?”
“The club by the hotel.”
“And he’s not in the bathroom?”
“No.”
“Not on the roof?”
“No.”
“Not trying to access any of the dancers poles?”
“What? Why would- Oh, Troy says no.”
“Is he hanging out with drunk girls in the women’s bathroom?”
“Umm, one sec. Harris, can you ask her if Ilya is in there? … Harris says no.”
“Ok. What were you talking about before he disappeared?”
“We were trying to figure out where to eat.”
“Did anyone bring up sushi?”
“He didn’t say he wanted-“
“Just answer the question.”
“Uh yeah, someone suggested it, but he said he wanted-“
“He’s at the pier.”
“What?”
“He got bored, sushi put fish on his brain, which made him think about water, and he likes going to piers, and the hotel is walking distance from a boardwalk by the water. He’s there, most likely trying to look at fish going under the dock.”
“… How do you know that?”
“Do you have any ideas how many times I have gotten this exact phone call? He’s easier to catch if you bait him with mozzarella sticks but make sure he knows he only gets them if he comes quietly. If you let him negotiate he will take the sticks and run. Cliff always fell for that.”
@bolshe-ilya Big fan of your tags
I made a supercut of every instance of the word partner (or partnership) in Black Sails... mostly as a side effect of wanting to analyze how the word was used in the show. More information/breakdown under the cut.

Sometimes I forget I've only known about Shane for 6 months.

My personal theory is that it was originally a Dutch vessel.
They were one of the four major powers in the colonies (with England, Spain and France), and of the drawing I find of 18th century ships, the Dutch ones are the most similar, especially when looking at the quarterdeck design.

goodmorning this is your assigned shane of the day
can we please get the ED / chronic back pain / disabled sex fic recs 👀
hello yes!! @youweremovingyourfeet requested these also
Adjustments by sheepknitssweater (2.8k) hookup era, ilya has a herniated disc, shane frets that his bottom prep was inadequate, the mortifying erotic ordeal of having a body, sex as communication, the intimacy of exposing your injuries to your rival
two hours year-round + ten years and counting by @radialarch (2.2k + 5k) long distance era, ilya takes lexapro and uses his fingers and a dildo to fuck shane, jock4jock banter, i think i have every single radialarch fic bookmarked the characterization is just soooo good
The Performer by @toxotesjc (14k) shane having sex through the years, the closeted queerness and undiagnosed autism, "It’s like everyone’s interacting naturally, and you’re an imposter, an alien trying to blend in."
a winner at heart by @ellisonwongparty (32k) depressed ilya and SSRI-induced ED, anxious shane, doing molly in monaco, the humiliation of ottawa losing, the humiliation of dating not just a loser but a quitter, sex as metaphor for hockey as metaphor for sex, i genuinely love how insane they are about hockey in this, my #shanetashi agenda
#goalbody by toomuchplor (5k) husbands era, cozy and lived-in, keeping a microwave on their dresser during playoffs for heating pads and grumbling at each other half asleep in the middle of the night to go take ibuprofen, a lovely convo between shane and yuna about infertility, sacrificing your body at the altar of hockey, and this incredible line: "And Ilya went faster, and Shane went boneless. When he came, it was better than a hot compress and ten hours of sleep and a dozen pelmeni laced with dilaudid. He was loose and liquid and drowsy." like. yeah!! IV dilaudid DOES feel like an orgasm, opioids are crazy
a nothing play by viviaano (9.6k) husbands era, shane-centric study, the ableist hierarchy of acute vs. chronic pain: "There are injuries you’re allowed to talk about, the dramatic ones. Broken bones, blood, the ones that leave scars or bruises you can point to and say, I got this one here, on this night, in front of witnesses. Those get you sympathy, headlines, and a timeline on recovery. Then there’s everything else."
another flaw in our equation by liveinsalt, @placebythering (50k and counting) husbands era, shane has a career-ending knee injury, they're both hurting and it makes them hurt each other in a gut wrenching but realistic and compelling way. the day the final chapter comes out i will be calling out of work to read it that's how much i love this fic
Route 96 Kanata by Anonymous (59k and counting) AU in which a knee injury ends shane's career before it starts, but he's still hooking up with pro athlete ilya, sex as self harm, sex as the blur between wanting to be someone and wanting to be with someone
here we are and what the hell are we going to do with it by walkingthroughwindows (24k) yet ANOTHER career-ending knee injury fic (sorry shane), but this one has the most well-adjusted versions of shane and ilya adapting to sex, retirement, and becoming a billet family (i love the sequel even more, although it's less pain/disability focused), like i just adore the casual care and access intimacy: "He rubs his face against Shane’s shoulder, yawns loudly. 'Can you sleep like this? With me inside? Or do you need pillow for your knee?'"
speaking of, i'm also going to plug the essay Access Intimacy by Mia Mingus and the book Disability Intimacy: Essays on Love, Care, and Desire edited by Alice Wong because both have been foundational texts in my understanding of disability and pleasure.
What is intimacy? More than sex, more than romantic love, the pieces in this stunning and illuminating new anthology offer broader and more inclusive definitions of what it can mean to be intimate with another person. Explorations of caregiving, community, access, and friendship offer us alternative ways of thinking about the connections we form with others—a vital reimagining in an era when forced physical distance is at times a necessary norm. But don't worry: there's still sex to consider—and the numerous ways sexual liberation intersects with disability justice. Plunge between these pages and you'll also find disabled sexual discovery, disabled love stories, and disabled joy.
shane is actually the best boyfriend that ever boyfriend’d. he’s opening doors, pulling out chairs, having his arm over back rests, holding hands while he drives, standing on the road side of the sidewalk. he’s so boyfriend coded. and ilya eats it all up! he loves being dotted on! he loves having a boyfriend!
