“Shane, how does it feel to be back on Montreal ice?”

[state-ofgrace]

Out of all the heated rivalry analysis I’ve seen I’ve never seen someone mention that after the all star game Shane no longer drafts and deletes texts. He says what he intends to say the first time and stops editing and second guessing himself and it’s one of my favorite details showing that their dynamic has changed and no one talks about it

“What’s that for?” Shane says.

“To celebrate.”

“Celebrate what?”

“It’s our honeymoon.”

Someone said “The slow burn of becoming yourself” and I think that might be one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. It’s such a good reminder of how much it takes, how much character development, how much change, and beauty and courage it takes to reach your soul and I hope no one ever gives up on becoming themselves because it’s a never ending journey that only gets better.

reminds me of a piece of art I love

Michael A Davenport, 3,090 Degrees Fahrenheit (Oil on canvas, 2025)

“3,090 degrees Fahrenheit is the temperature at which sand becomes glass, in a process known as the Pilkington Process. This is not the temperature of burning; this is the temperature of becoming something.”

Shane and Ilya end up using a surrogate for their first kid and decide to just mix their sperm into the same vial and let randomness determine who the father is. And yes Ilya has already teased Shane that he is physically faster than him and he’s going to win. And Shane’s like ‘This is our child, not a competition and you only sometimes beat me at speed skill tests, so I’m just as likely to win asshole.”

Meanwhile the surrogate is watching them have this argument like ‘oh what cute, funny banter!’ for exactly 30 seconds before she realizes ‘oh no they are deadass trying to win this pregnancy.”

The stakes are raised further when it turns out they are having TWINS! and the excitement of that announcement is only dampened by Shane and Ilya both individually thinking “I’ve got to go 2-0 on that motherfucker who is also the love of my life and maybe the father of our children”.

The day finally comes and there they are- Aaron and Milo: the latter dark-haired and already dotted with freckles, first born and not happy about it. Aaron was smaller, light blond hair curling on his little head and quieter. It’s only when they put them together and Aaron reaches a tiny fist over to brush Milo’s cheek that he finally stills; as if he’d only been asking where his brother was this entire time. (A beautiful moment destroyed when Shane and Ilya are holding their new family and Shane whispers over the infant’s heads “If Milo is mine- I technically won.” Ilya wisely bites his tongue versus waking the entire neo-natal unit.)

Crucially, as the boys grow up, whenever they do something to piss off their Dad/Papa, they are sure to blame it on ‘Their other dad’s genes”. Milo spent almost 10 minutes in the Sin Bin last game? “It’s those Rozanov genes.” Shane says with a shake of his head. Aaron’s boyfriend and girlfriend and boyfriend found out about each other? “You’re just like your Dad when he was your age.” Ilya says wiping a faux tear from his eye. It’s never funny to Milo and Aaron. It makes their parents piss themselves laughing Everytime.

This Dan Piraro comic always makes me cry.

[tuttle-did-it]

When I lived in London there was a murder of crows that lived near me. I fed them often, they brought me presents (shiny rubbish and cigarette butts they found on the floor to thank me.)

When I moved, I’m certain they understood I was leaving because I had all my stuff and gave them lots of food and compliments.

But, they chased down my friend who lived in the next burrough over. They had recognised that friend with me several times and followed them to their house when they couldn’t find me.

They adopted my friend and it was now my friend’s job to bring them snacks and receive the presents.

This was maybe 6-7 years ago.

I visited London last year. Went to see my friend. The crows all not only recognised me, they tracked me down. We got into my friend’s flat and not twenty minutes later there was chaos on the balcony.

We open the curtains, the entire fucking murder is there shouting because they wanted to see me.

Crows are the very best birds.

One of the best days of Ilya's life! 🤤🍝👍💃👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

Ilya wanted to tell Shane that it had been one of the best days of his life. It had been awkward, sure, but Ilya felt that, if he hadn't quite been already, he would be welcomed into Shane's family, and that was no small thing. In fact, to Ilya, who had barely been welcome in his own family, it was huge.

eta: did i do a switcheroo of the pic because the proportions were giving me a heartburn? well if i did, nobody's gonna know. 🤫
