“Beautiful Writing and Good Plot” Compilation Part 1 

We got a request at some point for stories with “beautiful writing and good plot” and I missed it back then, but here’s my compilation, just from going through my bookmarks and looking for key words like *beautifully written, *lyrical, *epic, etc. So, in absolutely no particular order, please enjoy! [And feel free to list your own, and we’ll do a Part 2 Compilation for all of yours as well!] ~ mojo

[m4s0ch1st1c-pup]

Shane getting a tattoo of "property of Ilya Rozanov" across his hip with lilies wrapping around the words and up his spine and nobody knows what it means

Hayden thinks it's a tattoo dedicated to 'Lily' and the locker room teases him about it for years, both because it's for a girl and because 'flowers are gay'

Cut to Montreal finding out about Shane and Ilya, and they're talking their usual shit and start debating how long they've been together

Shane makes their new Russian rookie read what the tattoo says and smugly says that he's been flaunting being owned by the rival captain for years and nobody knew

Give me more tattooed bamf freak Shane Hollander

[m4s0ch1st1c-pup]

Ilya and Shane would totally take in the rookies and let them live with them

Baby rookies scared as fuck to get assigned to live with Hollanov, but when they show up it's like a glorified daycare

Shane and Ilya are so parent-coded, they have snacks in the pantry, drinks in the fridge, a curfew, AN ALLOWANCE

Dinner has a specific time and you're expected to be there, help set the table, and clean up afterwards

Hollanov are the best qualified babysitters out there- no matter if they're taking care of small children or adults

[danpilled]

sure, ilya's jealousy over rose is funny because shane is gay and his sex life with rose was so bad she had to intervene and make shane come out to her. however we failed to consider that ilya genuinely cannot fathom shane being bad in bed. anytime they've slept together it was under-negotiated kink heaven for both of them, so he literally cannot wrap his head around the fact that rose is not looking for a repeat performance. he did not see shane go through the five stages of grief at the thought of having to fuck his gorgeous movie star girlfriend. so to him rose being in shane's life post breakup can only mean one thing: she still wants that cookie badddd

Heated Rivalry AU where Ilya dips out early from a post-game party with Boston, and someone gets the idea to put on a Hollonov compilation as a joke.

The whole team settles in with rapt attention, ready to roast the shit out of Roz over it via group chat, only to see. Well. It's a series of interview clips over the years. It's made up exclusively of three things. One, clips of Hollander "stealing" linguistically challenging questions that the whole team knows Rozanov hates. Two, clips of Rozanov derailing questions that are about Hollander's "representation of his community," which gossip on the street says makes Hollander uncomfortable. Three, Hollander and Rozanov commenting individually on the rivalry, with vicious comments such as. "He's of course a great player, but he'll find us difficult to beat." Such fire in Rozanov's comments are especially damning, given his whole chirp-king-schtick. The video editor, with all the obsession and perception of a true fangirl, makes sure to circle every instance where you can see the shadow of Hollander and Rozanov pressing their feet together - and in one instance holding hands - beneath the interview table. (You wouldn't see it unless you're looking for it - or unless someone circles it in red for you.)

The video finishes, and the team sits in a kind of shocked silence as the next video auto-plays. This one is a compilation of Rozanov chirping Hollander on the ice. Here, the editor has helpfully drawn an arrow to Hollander's face whenever he blushes. The editor has also inserted text overlays with comments like. "Look at how fiercely Rozanov insults his rival." And then puts smaller arrows pointing to Roz's body language, with helpful texts like "excited wiggle indicating absolute fury," and "besotted grin indicating deep hatred." The sarcasm is distressingly accurate in its point.

(Listen, the whole team knows what Roz looks like when he's chirping someone. This - this is not it. This is not it at all. This is him when he's being silly with people he really likes. What is going on.)

The video finishes, and this time someone has the presence of mind to stop the auto-play before another mind-breaking thing comes up.

Someone else, trying to lighten the silence with a joke, and maybe dismiss it all as a fever dream, says, "Montreal Jane? More like Montreal Shane, am I right?"

And. Well.

Once it's out there, there's no coming back from it.

Cliff asks aloud, to no one in particular, "Are we just stupid?"

[notahungrywish]

When Yuna has her “no son(in law) of mine will have inferior brand deals and management” takeover shortly after she learns about Shane and Ilya, how long do you think it takes her to figure out his money situation with his family?

I’m imagining her/maybe Shane playfully ribbing him about how he has no real financial manger or decent investments and what do you MEAN you just let a paycheck like that sit in your account while buying luxury cars every five minutes no wonder your net worth is shockingly low for your value, etc etc. and he’s not even offended he’s surprised and pleased that his new family is so invested in him and also enjoys watching where Shane gets some of his crazy. Like Ilya Mommy Issues Rozanov is “yes please ma’am optimize my finances and worry about my wellbeing harder” while he shovels whatever David made for dinner in his mouth.

But then at some point while she’s (lovingly) harping on his financial irresponsibility he just kind of quietly mentions that actually so much of his paycheck was going back home to his family when he was younger that he needed to blow shit on cars or whatever pretty quick if he didn’t want it to disappear. And she realizes that yeah he’s a little dummy who spent a concerning amount of money on VIP sections last year and thinks bank account interest is investing but he was also a child supporting his entire family in a foreign country with no one bothering to look out for his best interest or explain planning for a future.

David gets treated to impassioned rants every night about how “David I’m not convinced anyone even read that boy his contract in Russian”.

She starts managing him as well, obviously, and she’s kind of disturbed by how easily he just signs whatever she puts in front of him and doesn’t bother asking questions before agreeing to hand over all his management to her. He just seems thrilled she got him a Lamborghini partnership and an invite to fashion week.

The only time he puts up a fuss is when he realizes she’s not planning to take any significant cut of his money because “you’re family sweetheart” and he looks like he got smacked in the head with a shovel and has to go outside on the porch with Shane for a suspiciously long period of time.

Just to make sure it’s not suspicious that Yuna Hollander is now managing Ilya Rozanov she takes on a few more clients too. And if she specializes in managing rookies with no support network or active language barriers then that’s just a coincidence.

for @shipping-at-2-am or birdy1171 on ao3!! thank you very much for this fic, sorcon are canon to me </3

please read their fic, unknowingly knowing !!

art without instagram interface + some funfacts about how I chose their numbers below :) (bc they're so niche they don't have canon numbers :()

mittys 97 is for connor (wink wink) mcdavid - you legend, olympic mvp for canada 2026

connors 88 is both a fun play on his name being a double up, and for bobby orr, a historic boston bruins player and hall of famer

I find it very very funny that since there's no literally no info on the wiki, that the only way you know their jerseys are even swapped is because 'trust me bro'. although mitty is cast and portrayed by arthur moukhortov, so I stole his hair colour lol. as for connors I referenced connor storries stunt double, ralph targgot, mostly bc anytime I tried searching "connor connors heated rivalry" all it showed was connor storrie 😔

[itshype]

Yes, the fics where Ilya goes to Shane's game in his jersey are cute and romantic. But why has no one even considered:
