Ilya laughs. He finds that once he starts, he can't stop. He laughs at the fact that he's in France with Shane Hollander. He laughs at the fact he's Shane Hollander's boyfriend. He laughs at the fact that he gave up Moscow for a better life, only to end up in fucking Ottawa.Â
Ilya's dick stops working one month before he's supposed to leave for the South of France.

The only trick is to have no fear, and even less fear than that the more trouble one is in. Ilya cannot teach that to a man who has directed his energies into becoming, not like a saint, but like a painting of a saint, all dripping in symbolism: the way the robe drapes here, yes, that is on purpose, and the angle of the light, the patronâs face in the crowd, the instrument of the martyrdom in his hand and the fruit in the bowl on the table, all arranged except whenâ

Rozanov cocks his head to the side curiously. âThis is porn thing?â
âIt isnât a porn thing!â
âIt feels different?â He asks, nosing along his throat. âFor you?â
âI donât know, but I donât think so.â Psychologically, yes; physically, probably not. He hadnât felt whatever Rozanov had clearly felt the moment the condom broke. âThough I think itâll feel different for you. Maybe better.â
Rozanov pulls away until they can look each other in the eye.
âI always feel good with you.â It doesnât feel like a compliment, but like heâs making a point. âYou donât need to do this for me.â
âI know. I want to do it.â Shane insists.
Shane and Ilya experiment. It's a success.

Ilyaâs blood has always run hotter than Shane's.
Or: Yay Hollanov free use! Everybody cheered!
cottaging by gone_girl (explicit, 10k) âŁïž
Ilya was good at noticing things about people, and he was good at understanding them. Shane was not. That was okay. Shane had developed his own way of getting to know Ilya. It involved a lot of inane questions and, more importantly, no longer involved condoms.
Everything You Know by ineptshieldmaid (explicit, 6k)
"Is it weird," Ilya says, and Shane turns a little to meet his eyes, "That I have never done this?"
"What, fingered me on a couch? I'm sureâŠ"
"No, Hollander," Ilya says, in the voice he reserves for when Shane is being particularly obtuse. "That is not what I mean."
fall in love again and again by Ehlihr (mature, 25k) âŁïž
Shane wakes up on Tuesday at 5:26 AM on game day in Boston, four minutes before his alarm goes off. Shane wants it to be Wednesday. But no matter what, Shane wakes up on Tuesday at 5:26 AM on game day in Boston, four minutes before his alarm goes off.
âFuck,â he croaks. âFuck, fuck, fuck.â
Chapter 1: Shane wakes up on the same Tuesday over and over again after leaving Rozanov in a rush. Tuesday is his second least favourite day of the week, so he's not really happy about it.
Chapter 2: Ilya notices Shane acts strangely. He just never remembers.
found it on my own by coldhome (mature, 3k)
In the stale hallway of the Sports Hall of Fame, he understands the cottage more. He has to wander down unpaved paths for privacy.
Ilya looks over at the growing crowd around Shane. There are things to learn, he decides. There are things to learn that cannot be kept behind glass in this wretched museum.
Or, Ilya and Shane learn each other.

âActually, uhââ Shane scratched the back of his neck and dropped his gaze to the floor by Ilyaâs chair. âWould you mind if I sucked you off?â
âWould I mind?â Ilya asked. âNo, I would not mind. You want my cock again that badly, Hollander?â

Shane's brought Ilya to his cottage, which means something, doesn't it? And whether it's a test, or an experiment, or an audition - Ilya is determined he will triumph. By any means necessary.
jumping someone else's train by HeartOfDecember (explicit, 11k)
"Typical dirty Americans," Rozanov said. He took the pitcher and started pouring water into the four glasses. "You wear your shoes indoors and then you want to fuck someone else's husband and then you expect him to sleep in the same filthy sheets."
Scott opened his mouth to retort back, but Rozanov, the gracious host, was handing him a cold glass of water. "Well, we will all get very dirty together tonight," he continued. "Shane, my sweetheart, you are outnumbered. Better hydrate."
Hollander drank obediently. Needing something to do with his hands, Scott sipped his water, too. Kip traced circles lightly along his back. The silence that felt so pleasant outside by the fire now settled heavily over them. Scott cleared his throat. "So," he said. "What are we doing?"
Rozanov looked at him like he was stupid. "Is it not obvious? We are going to run a train on my husband."
listen how the heart beats lying next to him by pumpkinless (explicit, 8k)
Every time a text came through about flight times, Shane thought that would be the last one. That Ilya would say, no, actually, but I cannot come to your home over the summer and fuck you in your bed for two weeks and kiss and play house like we are boyfriends, because we are hockey rivals and this has been a seven year long mistake. Also, I will be blocking your phone number and never want to see you again unless I am beating you on the ice.
He had doubted every second until Ilya was finally in his car in the airport parking garage.
love and lust (wanna be yours) by blankjournal (explicit, 12k)
âYou really wouldnât mind if I had sex with someone else?â
Ilya does mind. Hearing it said back to him, almost makes him flinch, a sudden and brittle sound right next to his ear that he fails to recoil from in time. But he swallows back the bitter truth and replies, âOf course not. If that is what you want.â
He waits, sitting on his living room couch, phone pressed painfully against his ear, his other hand gripping his knees till his knuckles blanched. He could feel his own heart rattling behind his ribs, pulse rockingloudly. His mind was an echo of alarm, demanding of him: Why isn't Shane saying anything?
It was the loudest silence heâs ever lived through, until Shane finally said, âOkay.â
OR: inspired by the fight in TLG where Ilya tells Shane he can sleep with other men. But this time, Shane actually takes the offer.
Menace by Charlotte_Stant (mature, 5k) âŁïž
Of course Ilya had known that Shane would come back but it was gratifying, still, the text from Jane, Can we meet up when youâre here tomorrow, I donât care where. I really need to see you. The intimation, probably accidental, that Shane was so very desperate he was open to the idea of Ilya fucking him in the street. Ilya typed and deleted many potential replies, which was not characteristic of him.
(Or: Shane gets blackmailed. Ilya handles it.)
See You at the Melting Point by DeclaredDove (explicit, 1.5k)
Hollander has a lot of commercials. Ilya has favorites. For normal reasons.-- --OR Ilya wants. Itâs a problem.

82 games in a season doesn't leave much time for braving traffic on the 417.
sympathy fuck by lustmord (explicit, 10k) âŁïž
We wonât release a statement right away, someone from the front office said, but if youâre missing a couple games thereâs going to be questions. What are we going to call it? A family emergency?
Ilya had almost laughed. What emergency? His father is already fucking dead.
the gift by stammiviktor (mature, 8k)
Ilya wanted so badly to just tell Svetlana: Itâs Shane Hollander, itâs always been Shane Hollander. He wanted to invite her over after the game so he'd know it was possible for her and Shane to exist in the same room without the world collapsing.
He was calling Shane back before he even thought about it, his heart in his throat.Â
âIlya?â
âCan I invite Svetlana?"
He could never have expected what happened next.
Or: Only a few months after the cottage, Shane meets Svetlanaâand goes to great lengths to defeat his jealousy.
whispers carried on second wind by MilesbyMicah (explicit, 5k)
In which Ilya perceives Shane a little more than heâs allowed to, so Shane uses the tried and true Ilya Rozanovâą method of deflecting with sex.
Set ambiguously sometime in episode 4 just before the tuna melt scene.
