heated rivalry show you will always be famous. budget so low the sex was explicit and the hockey was implied

[penandinkprincess]

laughing about the idea of shane and ilya being in a cold war of trying to accomodate the other one's preferences on something where they land on opposite sides.

like shane likes the house colder because he hates getting too warm and would rather just wear some comfy layers and some thick socks, but ilya likes the house warmer because he likes having his tits out for his husband not wearing a shirt.

and i'm cackling about the idea of them fucking with the thermostat like. thirty times a day. trying to put it on the OTHER person's preferred temperature. because no YOU get to be the most comfy in our home. no!! YOU get to be at your most comfy temperature!!!

shit REALLY gets serious when shane has someone install a smart thermostat and now has control over it on his phone via app and refuses to give ilya the password and also changes the code on his phone because take THAT asshole. now he can LOCK the house to your best temperature. checkmate, motherfucker. >:)

they come into the locker room with like. OBVIOUS tension between them. and everyone is like oh?? a fight?? a married quarrel???

ilya goes out drinking that night (because he knows shane will at least get a few hours at HIS preferred temperature that way because he does truly HATE being too warm, and this is ilya's ONLY MOVE right now in this battle), and they finally get him loose enough to talk and he's just *resentful voice as he stares into his glass of vodka* "my beautiful horrible husband likes the house to be 20, but he keeps setting it to 23 instead. he is horrible person." "...b-because that's too warm for you?" "no, 23 is perfect temperature." "...??????"

When Shane and Ilya fight I think they resolve it the same way they did before they got together just sped up which is to say one of them leaves and they don't talk to each other for a few hours and then one of them comes back or goes and gets the other and they exchange some cordial and impersonal comments and then they fuck. And then one of them will be like hey btw I'm sorry can we talk and they talk. But first they have to refuse to communicate and fuck. They don't know how else to do it. It would never occur to either of them to skip that part. They don't even realize that's what they're doing.

[hr-rep]

Consider Shane just wakes up one day and realizes that he’s hot. It’s a big day for Ilya Rozanov in particular.

[fractally]

I feel like an aspect of the reaction to hollanov too has gotta ba like....doesn't it fucking piss you off to imagine the two best players in the world just off in their own little world and you KNOW they're shit talking everyone else. I feel like suddenly people would realize oh no it's not just Rozanov who thinks he's better than everyone Hollander does too. And they're fucking about it. They're probably watching back games and tittering about how much better they are than everyone else and it's the worst because they're right. That would piss me off

Oh this Peloton campaign is HUGE, he's featured on their website and it's supposed to be national TV, streaming, etc . . . Go Hudson!!

you know what's so telling in all this? their official press release doesn't mention Heated Rivalry. They don't need to because everyone knows who is he.

[xohxoo]

Of course they dropped this while I was sleeping, what else is new

[kutputli]

Ok so in 48 hours Hudson Williams has first

participated in a music video with an all-wasian cast, directed and produced by Asian-Americans with a predominantly As-Am crew

and second

been the first non-athlete in a sport equipment ad where his co-star is a Black woman, his choreographer is a Black man and his director is a Mexican-American woman.

Motherfucking politics in your goddam art, y'all.

BUNNY SHANE CAUGHT IN 4K

[hrgifs]

I like you. I like you, too.

[firstprinced]

the way ilya, here, thought that shane thinks he's pathetic, and that shane will say he doesn't need ilya anymore 😭 he doesn't make eye contact for this entire first part of the convo.

[gaynehollander]

The way the line "Shane Hollander can have whatever he wants here" delivered after refusing to serve him a ginger ale without a side of attitude absolutely infuriates me.
