Shane-goes-to-Boston Fic Recs

This is hands down my favorite trope in the HR fandom right now. I love every version of it and there are so many great stories that deserve to be highlighted and celebrated. If you haven't given this type of story a shot so far, I can only implore you to give one of the following fics a shot.

And if you have more recs or feel inspired to write your own fic, please for all that is hollzy share. the. link. with. me.!!! I'm serious. I need more food.

A Ghost in Boston by sostarry: Complete. Ilya gets outed while in Russia. Which ends with Shane joining the Bears. It'll make sense, I promise!

all the stars aligned by heydoeydoey: Shane Hollander literally blows up his own 10 year plan on the first day back to work and, like Ilya, I love him for it. Such a great story. First part in the series is complete.

Better Days To Come by PlatitudinalTeen: Complete. Oneshot. One thing I really love about this one is that Shane chooses to come to Boston for Ilya and himself as opposed to a lot of trade fics, where he has either no or litte control over the situation. A wonderful read.

Boston Boys by xpityx: WIP. Shane gets traded before the tuna meltdown. They're both trying their best and somehow the vibe is just very sweet. I really appreciate how great the team is too and how you can see through some of their interactions with Shane how they support Ilya.

Home Ice Advantage by taywrites11: First part in series is complete. And absolutely wonderful. Shane gets traded in his rookie season and that experience shapes him. Ilya is the consent king we know and love. I love the way their relationship has the chance to develop differently here and also the way Shane's relationship to his parents is explored. Cannot reccommend this enough.

Recalculating the Ten Year Plan by MegsChaos: WIP. After All Stars 2017 and an ugly betrayal by the Metros (fuck the Metros) Shane gets traded to Boston. Both he and Ilya are trying their best while navigating their still very new relationship. Beautiful. I cannot wait to see where it's going. As an added bonus: also contains social media posts.

Shane Hollander is not a Coward by crimson_lunar_473: WIP. Shane gets traded for reasons. The reasons being that the Metros are assholes, which we're not gonna question because we hate the Metros in this house. Also Shane gets to be unhinged as a treat.

something you can fix by some1_around: Three completed parts in this series. One of the two reasons I fell head over heels in love with this trope and never looked back. Part 1 hurts despite the comfort, but Part 2 makes up for all of it and then some. Wonderful character development, some bittersweet moments and so much genuine love. Also the hospital scene with Victor and Cliff is maybe the entire reason why I love those two characters. 10/10 read at any time.

The Great MHL Seduction by Lady_of_War_and_Heartache: WIP. Only 2 chapters so far but the premise is just *sighs dreamily and stares into the middle distance* I need Ilya to publicly "woo" Shane to the Bears so bad, you have no idea.

Tiny Moves by cassykay: WIP. Technically we don't know that Shane will go to Boston yet but I am very hopeful, so I've decided it counts. Supportive Bears for Ilya is really all I ever want from a fanfic and I cannot wait for them to force-adopt Shane too. Also I absolutely adore the hospital scene *chefskiss*

(We Could Be) Something Great by Anonymous: WIP. Second of two reasons I fell head over heels in love with this trope. Absolute Must Read. I cannot oversell this. Even if you don't read WIPs, you need to make an exception. Go read it now. You will not regret it. (KIDNAPPED SHANE (AFFECTIONATELY)!!! THE FEELS!!!!!! THE SOFTNESS!!!!!!!!!!)

I love the idea that Bruce bought Twitter when he heard that Elon was sniffing around for it, and made it so all the JL have verified superhero accounts. And Superman posting pics of him waiting for Batman to stop working so they can go to bed or make out is how the general population finds out they're together. And Batman has an account, but never posts or replies to anything, except to reprimand other JL members for posting pics or info they aren't supposed to (like pics of inside the batcave).

[thesunwillshineonusagain757]

I have a Superbat headcanon that’s very much inspired by the "cat my dad said he didn’t want" meme. But Damian’s version.

So, in this universe, Superbat has been established for a couple of years by the time Damian joins the family. All of Bruce's other kids adore Clark — they think he’s the best thing that ever happened to Bruce. But Damian? He refuses to accept “the alien” as his father’s partner. For the first month, he’s adamant about it, making it very clear he does not approve, and being very antagonistic towards Clark.

But one night, Bruce comes home late from patrol, and as he’s walking through the house, he passes the living room. There, on the sofa, is Clark fast asleep — and Damian, sound asleep on his chest. Bruce, of course, takes a picture and immediately sends it to the Batfam group chat.

Dick wastes no time replying with the quote: “The dad Damian said he didn’t want.”

And honestly? I think that’s adorable. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

This is so fucking cute, I had to draw them. It's not the best but I had to finish it quickly.

[frownyalfred]

The Justice League needing to run a seduction op and considering every member other than Batman is hilarious to me.

Like, not only do they not know his secret identity (for this idea to work at least) but they’re completely unaware that not only is Batman devastatingly attractive, he’s also one of the most charming, talented liars out there.

And he’s just sitting there watching Hal and Oliver fight over who’s going to seduce the politician/charm their way into the meeting silently laughing to himself.

[seperhim]

They think Batman would be the worst at it but in truth that man is the sluttiest person you'll ever meet

[frownyalfred]

Bruce steps in as Brucie, sleeps with the target (loudly enough to be heard on all comms, turns out he’s very adept) and hands off the intel to Clark, Hal and Ollie who are just standing by the champagne table gaping.

“…..what?” Ollie says.

“Your intel,” Bruce replies, “as requested.”

“But you….you just—”

“What,” Bruce says, frowning delicately, “Like it’s hard?”

It’s their first introduction to Batman’s secret identity. Just a slightly disheveled, grinning Bruce Wayne depositing the USB into Clark’s hand and disappearing into the crowd.

[mysticwolfshadows]

After that, any time Bruce has to sneak into a backroom at a gala or event, he grabs whichever of the three are there (usually Clark, cuz reporter, and his punishment for disappearing is more of the society beat), and drags them along. And if they're about to be caught, Bruce just grabs his partner in vigilantism by the shirt collar, throws himself back against a wall, pulling his partner on top of him and kissing the daylights out of him.

And I like to believe it gets to the point where Bruce has a longer mission, like a weekend long trip on a pleasure yacht, or something, and Batman asks the Justice League for volunteers to be his partner. The League members that don't know that Batman is Bruce Wayne, or that being undercover with Batman for that long probably means they're gonna have sex, are confused. Because Green Arrow and Green Lantern are throwing themselves at the opportunity, arguing with eachother, while Superman waits for a lull in the fighting to just state that he will be going, eyes daring Arrow or Lantern to argue. If... That's okay with Batman, of course. And that's when Bruce decides he has a favorite, and he is definitely gonna ruin Clark for anyone else.

(meanwhile, Nightwing is sitting at one end of the table, knowing full well that the weekend isn't a mission and instead a forced vacation, stares at the rest of the League. "You three figured out his identity, didn't you?" He asks, making Supes, Arrow, and Lantern blush. Nightwing makes a disgusted face, then points at Supes. "I will accept only you as my step dad, so you two back off." And then leaves without explaining while the League is completely confused.)

[violentbat]

I want you to picture mild mannered Clark Kent, with possibly a budding crush on Bruce Wayne, sitting across from a very shirtless and animated Bruce Wayne who is waving all over the place and practically vibrating with manic energy as he blabs about coffee, his kids, his enemies and tries to sell you on his whole shtick.

"You're a... vigilante" is a nice way to put, "how much fucking speed have you done, hot stuff?"

I think the fact that Tim’s childhood was actually fairly normal makes things funnier, actually.

He was raised in boarding schools and a bit of a latchkey kid, but he knew his parents loved him and he was supervised the majority of the year. He has normal interests, like skateboarding and superheroes. He has plenty of friends and meets up with them outside of school and everything. Even when he has to go to a new school, he finds a friend group. He dislikes school and he’s a dork. He has had multiple girlfriends, a homoerotic friendship, and a boyfriend. He’s intended to be the reader-insert, the Everyman, the guy that teenage boy readers identify with. As far as Batman comics go, he’s practically Normal McNormal Face on a surface level.

He also:

Responds to a temporary lack of adult supervision by stalking Batman with a camera to prove that Batman is being reckless. How did Tim know Batman was being reckless in the first place? Who knows! Maybe he just stalked him recreationally first.

Travels to New York City alone to break into Dick Grayson’s apartment.

Tries to clone his dead best friend (the other half of said homoerotic friendship).

Climbs out the window in the middle of a conversation with his guidance counselor.

Fakes an entire uncle and hires an actor to play him because he wants to live independently.

Runs away to a quarantined disaster zone, resulting in a huge manhunt.

Deduces Batman’s identity at age 9 and keeps it a secret (look, 9-year-olds are chatty).

Falls asleep on a rollercoaster, in the middle of a stakeout, and other inopportune places like the freaking dormouse from Alice in Wonderland.

Desperately attempts to keep the family together in Gotham War to a frankly disturbing degree.

Routinely ends up in random countries without adults, but it’s fine because he’s Competent (TM).

Hero worships Dick Grayson so hard he literally steals his identity.

Like, no, Tim’s insanity is not the result of cartoonish childhood neglect. Which means…

He’s just like that.

ZOOS ARE NOT ANIMAL CRUELTY FACTORIES THEY ARE RESEARCH CENTERS, HOSPITALS, REHABILITATION CENTERS, ANIMAL RESCUES, SANCTUARIES, SCHOOLS, AND REPOPULATION PROGRAMS. DONT SAY "ZOOS" WHEN YOU *MEAN* "ROADSIDE ATTRACTIONS, PRIVATE COLLECTIONS, CIRCUSES, AND POACHERS"

[agro-carnist]

Zoos ARE verified conservation organizations, dipshit

[wild-west-wind]

Accredited zoos are held to higher standards than sanctuaries, which are rarely accredited or subject to any oversight. Many of the ‘sanctuaries’ you see, at least in the US, are nothing more than terrible for-profit menageries that milk their animals for cash.

Others bank hard on ‘animal rights’ issues, and end up creating facilities run by folks with little experience, overcrowded and ripe with disease.

Zoos do SO MUCH critical conservation work. Zoos are responsible for saving many species from extinction, and protecting animals in and out of captivity. Zoos are not the enemy.

[forever5hines]

I worked at a zoo as a student and lemme just tell you. They fund so much research, they're part of international breeding programs, saving and helping animals from near extinction. The people working with these animals are highly educated and so passionate about their job and the animals. They work on enrichment all the time.

There are 'bad zoos' but so many zoos are important and do incredible work

[beggars-opera]

Also if a sanctuary is legit, they won't let you visit, because it's more important to them that the animals are left alone.

[0pickwickian0]

The fact that I made this profile so I had somewhere to post about Star wars and then never post anything because I get self conscious is killing me so I'll slowly go ahead and drop some art okay thanks bye

The Last Temptation of Christ / Dean and Chuck

[jarenka]

That should be illegal to send pics like that to your friends who are working in the really cold climate.

[wlwanakin]

at the end of the day when it comes to padmé i think it’s really important to remember that her closest friends are literally her employees. her only other friends are her coworkers. her closest friend for years was a girl she met at 14 whose job it was to pretend to be her and potentially die about it. another friend with the same job died in her arms while pretending to be her. she does not have friends outside of her squad of employees who pretend to be her and sometimes die about it and then her politician coworkers. too many of you are way too surprised that this woman is not normal about love or relationships or her own self considering all this

[jarenka]

What a great way to learn that you master is an eldritch being.

[stealingpotatoes]

downsides of being super ill for a few days are being ill, plus sides are i finally sat down and watched the 2003 clone wars cartoon!
