25 years old and i still have no idea how tumblr works
but thatโs not gonna stop me from screaming about
my hyperfixation like itโs a full-time job
hi hello !! ๐
so ummโฆ iโm technically not new to tumblr (been lurking in the shadows for years ๐)
but i kinda wanna start actually posting now??
itโll probably just be unfiltered thoughts, hyperfixation rants, and general chaos lol
Iโm still figuring out how this whole thing works so pls be patient with me ๐ฅน
Iโd love to interact and maybe make some mutuals?? I promise Iโm friendly just slightly awkward ๐
I have been thinking who Centaurs reminds of. And I found it. As a former Haikyuu girlie, Centaurs remind me of MSBY Jackals from time skip. SakuAtsu is Hollanov but different front. I donโt know it made perfect sense when I saw old skit of MSBY. MSBY chaotic vibes translate perfectly into Centaurs. ๏ฟผ
Shane is not friend with Ilyaโs friend. I think ilya was super excited for them to get along and they do. Shane likes to spend time with them while Ilya is there with him. But he doesnโt consider them friends a least not a close friend.
However, he has his own friend even his own rookies. He doesnโt know how that happened but now he has them and itโs fun. Nick and Boyle arenโt as loud as others. They are reserved like Shane but they like Shane bitchy side. Rookies worship him but out of the rink they call him gramps and make fun his knowledge of internet, mostly lack of. With them he is not the Shane Hollander. Just guy a is good at his job. They donโt care when wants to talk about hockey gor hours and they listen ask questions. When they canโt listen they schedule it. (Hey! We can meet next week you can tell me about the evolution of the pucks) so he doesnโt feel too much with them. Best part is they donโt hate his husband. They even like him, respect him. Are they close? No. Shane is pretty sure Nick finds Ilya little much but they never bring it in bad way. Thatโs Ilya. He is annoying little shit but he is ours. He loves that he doesnโt defend Ilya 24/7. He can complain about him without feeling like they would hate him. So he loves his friends
I donโt know where this โShane canโt get the jokeโ idea comes from but it is wrong. He is funny. Sure heโs not cracking jokes left and right but when he feels comfortable he is sarcastic and funny. Most of time you need to know him to understand his jokes. Itโs not even head canon. We saw this on the show with Rose, Hayden, and Ilya different versions so stop this nonsense.
extremely funny scenario in which rose joins shane as his plus one and moral support for going after the guy he wants at all stars because she can be his buddy and also his cover for making up for lost time with ilya
which is complicated by the fact that ilya takes one look at rose and shane at the bar (rose's arm looped through shane's in what ilya doesn't know is just a friends move) and BOOKS IT so he doesn't have to see this
and then proceeds to avoid them at EVERY fucking turn
this all terminates into rose going "fuck it I'm a true bro and I'm making this happen so help me GOD" and managing to arrange locking them in a closet together (which is. so funny. but this is not the time to point out the punchline.) (she'll save it.) so ilya can't run away.
and it's very sweet and they have their moment of honesty and yay back to ilya's room now fo-
the-the door is locked.
because it turns out that rose got a LITTLE too enthusiastic in locking it after her plan worked PERFECTLY and now something in the mechanism is broken.
so in one sense, shane did come out of the closet, but in another sense that's going to be funny only probably a few months from now, he AND ilya are now stuck in the closet in a way that is both metaphorical and also. painfully literal.
This scenario is also raising mental images of Rose from Minnesota "I have brothers" Landry being so determined to pin Ilya down to make him talk with Shane that all glamourous movie star persona drops away and she just fucking tackles him, and Ilya has no idea how to react to this attack so she actually succeeds in wrestling him to the ground
Shane's looking slightly scared by all this in the background, Ilya's saying "Shane! Your girlfriend attacked me!" And she's going "I'm NOT his girlfriend, now you two are going to TALK to each other, or so help me god" and drags them both to the closet
the idea of petite movie star rose landry tapping into her roots and turning into a linebacker to take down giant professional athlete ilya rozanov is SO goddamn funny
because also ilya would NOT know how to fucking react
like he wrestles with svetlana for fun but this is?? NOT FUN?? IS THIS?? AN ATTACK?? WHAT THE F U C K IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW?? HE CAN'T ACTUALLY HIT HER BUT HE IS BEING FUCKING?? PINNED DOWN?? OH MY GOD???? DID HOLLANDER TELL HER ABOUT THEIR PAST TOGETHER????? IS THIS JEALOUSY?? THAT'S EXCITING BUT ALSO GET?? OFF??? WHAT THE FUCK???
"she's not my girlfriend!" "i'm not his girlfriend!"
*brief moment of ooooh??? yay???? before returning to 'pinned to the ground with his face in the dirt' reality* "OKAY WELL GET YOUR WHATEVER OFF OF ME."
GOD a huge contributing factor to rose not keeping track of time and noticing how long shane has been mia is that baby girl gets DRUNK on how many people are buying her shots for being the one to take ilya rozanov DOWN.
the mention of younger brother Ilya vs older sister Rose is killing me, because I think Ilya would just be soooo WILDY unprepared for this dynamic.
like, his older brother is both absentee and abusive, so I imagine his entire view of sibling relationships is incredibly tarred, and this woman is also his Greatest Enemy In Life.
so heโs getting youngerbrotherbodyslammed by this women who (like all older sisters, can just clock a younger sibling idk what to tell you) is supposed to hate him, but is treating him like a twit child???????
heโs squawking at her to get the fuck off of him, and sheโs all โshut up you dramatic loser, youโre literally fine stop whining. Get your shit together and get your man oh my god!!!โ And heโs like โDO I KNOW YOU????โ
rose being a little worried this isn't going to work out because they can't even get ilya in front of them to even say hi, but then she gets eyes on ilya JUST long enough to go OOOH! you are Little Brother Shaped, and now she knows EXACTLY how to handle this.
the idea of rose also finding this SO fun and it becoming part of their dynamic moving forward is so special to me. she won't do it in public because neither of them wants that press coverage, but the second they're in private??
svetlana finds it really funny but doesn't usually actually want to get physical when he's goofing off, so she's happy to offload mma fighting to rose
shane and svetlana at the cottage chilling out on lounge chairs with umbrella drinks and sunglasses while supervising rose and ilya lightly drowning each other in the lake after trying to shove each other off of the dock first
oh MAN rose stopping by camp as a pr move to get more attention for the foundation and joining in with the kids
which means there's footage of ilya and rose dropping gloves and "fighting" with each other on the ice as ilya complains about her being a bad influence
One thing about Heated rivalry is that they make me believe they genuinely want each other. The way that they kiss and all the other scenes, it is so obvious they like each other. Sooo why are we writing Shane that he always annoyed at Ilya? Did we forget about bathroom scene? He was looking at Ilya with stars in his eyes, mind you, after got ghosted for 6 months. That man donโt get annoyed at his husband. On the contrary he is the enabler. Ilya wants to prank people. Shane makes the plans. Ilya wants to eat out. Shane finds the restaurant for them. Ilya wants kiss. Shane is running to give him. So no Shane doesnโt get annoyed when his husband acts himself. He loves it and makes sure Ilya feels good enough to be himself.
I love Time travel fix-it fic but what if instead of Hollanov, Yuna goes back in time to fix their relationship. Just think about it. Yuna finding Ilya on draft day and saying he is really good and his mom would be proud of him. Forcing Shane and Ilya to spend time together. Giving Ilya her number so he should contact her about the brand deal.
She would do a lot and make their image so different from the beginning so they wouldnโt suffer like the first time. No one can stop Mama Hollander if she needs to protect her sons.
I think Shane having โthe support systemโ makes it harder for him in the long game. Bear with me. Boxing day fight, Ilya mad/sad he doesnโt get to have people knowing about them(I am oversimplifying) and Shane doesnโt understand him. Not at all. He doesnโt understand why would Ilya want to tell people because his experiences of telling people about either their relationship or him being gay is not helpful at all.
I donโt think his coming out was something glamorous like they supported him. It is just another thing to put up with him. And also I firmly believe that if Shane didnโt win the third cup, everyone would blame him. Only reason we donโt see his team having problems with him being gay is he is hockey god.
So coming back to my point, so he has a team that tolerates him at best. A best friend who knows about his relationship but keeps trying to convince him to find someone. So people knowing doesnโt help. It adds to the pressure it already crushing him.
So why would Ilya want that pressure? So yeah it doesnโt make sense to him at all.
Do we know what position Holmberg, Young, Lapointe plays? If there is no certain position I have my headcanon which I need for my Shame with rookies fic.
In my perfect world Holmberg is a center but not good enough. He has instincts but he is little cocky to take advice on other people. So Shane is perfect mentor to shape him. โ you think you good let see if you can score more me Iโll acknowledge you.(spoiler alert he didnโt score more) Shane think he is similar to Ilya in some sense. So canโt help himself to be closer to Holmberg.
Young is a defense man. He is the first rookie to ask for Shaneโs help which is surprising because Shane isnโt a defense man. โIf I can stop you I can stop anybody in the league. You are Shane Hollanderโ He doesnโt care other peopleโs teasing. He knows shane is the best player. (Did you hear that Rozanov) even though Shane helps him practice, He asks Chouinardโs help for Young. โIโll help but Chouinard is a good defender he could help you more.
(Btw Chouinard Shane is bestie in the team. No one knows but they love to gossip in French)
Last but not least Lapointe. He is a left wringer. One thing everyone needs to know about Shane that He despises Tanner Dillon. You may ask why? That excuse of a hockey player should retire and never allowed on ice again. He hated him when he was on Ilyaโs line. Now he despise him when he has to play in his line. So if you canโt choose your line mate youโll grow one in lab. So thatโs how he started to help Lapointe. Kid is promising, in practice he can keep up with shane no problem but in the match he looses his nerves so he messes up. His best idea was an exposure therapy so he convinces Wiebe to put Lapointe to his line. Kid thought he was gonna die but it work out when Shane helps (forces) him to score end goal of the match. So one stone two birds.
He doesnโt help Luca. Thatโs Ilyaโs responsibility he has enough rookie to help. (He may see himself in Luca)
My TikTok algorithm assigns me the character I have no idea from the tv shows that I never watched. Now my assigned Off Campus character is apparently John Logan. Not complaining but I have no idea who that is lol. I keep seeing edits of him being hot. Not complaining though

This is part 6 of the the secret society of stick handlers series.
My Shane is not the mom of the Centaurs. He is a prick and asshole. His media persona is absolute bullshit. He doesnโt do novelties or make you feel better about yourself. He looks at you up and down, if youโre not worth his time he doesnโt care. Especially now he doesnโt have the responsibility of being captain. Not his circus, not his monkey. Unless youโre in his line, then you fucked because you have to be good. You donโt have a chance to be bad, not even mediocre.
And I need shane to talk back to his captain aka his husband about the practice and strategies. Every time Ilya tells him โIf you wanna comment about my team you gotta accept the A on that jersey Hollander.โ And every time Shane says โ No fuck thatโ he just wants to play hockey and enjoy it with no responsibility beside playing his best
Tag, DM, or use #HollanovArchiveFicRec if you want your fic added to my rec list โก
Unhyperlinked titles means the list is finished but queued to post โก Currently have lists queued all the way through July right now so if you requested a fic list, just know there is a wait, but it will get posted!
This is the Luca Haas boyfriends masterpost which I will try my best to keep updated! Basically, this was born out of a desire to find out how many boyfriends we have invented for him.
This is likely not complete, and always a work in progress, as I've mostly based it on the Luca Haas/Original Male Character tag on ao3 but I've noticed a few being tagged different, so if you find any boyfriends not included, slide into my dms or comment on the post with their name, link and description! If your OC is in this list and I've gotten something wrong, please also dm me with how you'd like your boyfriend to be described!
Now, I have not read all of these fics, and this is not a fic rec post. The boyfriends are listed in alphabetical order. This is also not a post or space to critique people's OC's or fics, just to celebrate the hivemind creativity of what a fandom can do with a minor character with what, ten spoken lines? I hope this post inspires everyone to give all these fics and boyfriends some love <3
The criteria for the boyfriends (and non binary partners) of Luca Haas to be included are as follows:
Not a named character from the Game Changers universe (i.e. Young, LaPointe, Cliff, Hollanov, or even Theo the Mascot Guy);
They must interact in the fic at least once OR be a central point of discussion/plot and not be a one off mention;
They must be the main pairing involving Luca (for example, boyfriends he breaks up with to be with hollanov are not included)
Endgame relationships only (not because I don't like slut era Luca, but I am defining boyfriend as a loving, long-term relationship. This also means this list excludes any abusive fuckers who don't deserve the title of boyfriend)
They must have a name. I know there are a few fics that are set up for Luca to have an OC boyfriend, but the OC has not been introduced yet; I will add them to the list when they are named!
Let the boyfriend fest commence! (Under the keep reading because this is about to get LONG. I've tried my best to keep the little blurbs spoiler free! Heed the warnings and tags on each fic as you read!)

Now I want to say things may trigger some people but I know we love the idea of codependency for Shane and Ilya. They deserve to spend time together as a couple. But they need their own time. It isnโt because they donโt love each other or they have marriage problems. Shane is autistic and Ilya has depression. Sometimes Ilyaโs bad days require him to have alone time because seeing Shane trying to help makes him feel guilty. Sometimes Shane needs to have no one to around to decompress not because he doesnโt want Ilya. But his nervous system wonโt stop working even his husband breathes so needs alone time.
And I am a firm believer that they need different friends and friend groups, especially after Shane moves to Ottawa but thatโs a another post
I reblogged this last month, tagged it, and said โmight as well see if it works.โ I used this video as a reference to find all the forms that i needed (which is A LOT, especially if youโre a dependent) and sent them through the mail, not really allowing myself to hope.
