Ilyapasta Heated Rivalry Fic Masterpost

I've been pretty busy! I like making lists so here I am finally making a masterpost of my own HR fics so far. I'll keep adding as we go, but I like the idea of having them all in one place here. NOTE: I really use and abuse that character study tag, but I think most of my fics do fall under that category.

My Ao3

Multi-Chapter Fics

Fracture and Collapse (Shane/Ilya, Rated E, 66k, Post-TLG, injury and recovery, slice of life, internal and external relationship issues, character study)

Shane gets hurt three days before playoffs begin. It's nothing to worry about, really.

I'm resigned to sail on through (Shane/Ilya, Rated E, 6.8k, Cottage, Final Boston Year, Ilya POV, Character Study, Meditations on Love, long distance, making love, bruise play, pain play)

Explorations of Ilya Rozanov, a man newly in love. Chapter one takes place at the cottage, chapter two is during Ilya's final Boston year.

Liminal Series

This fic series is a study of the in-between spaces left in the narrative. All are Shane/Ilya, are loosely related, and follow show canon.

Sweet Inside (6k, Rated E, Shane POV, Post-Olympics Pre-Ep4, dom/sub undertones, sexual discovery, sexting, oral fixation, yearning)

the name your parents gave you (10k, Rated E, Ilya POV, from Tuna Melts to Tampa All-Star Game, rejection, phone sex, infidelity, yearning)

Oh babe, I hate to go (3k, Shane/Ilya, Rated E, Ilya POV)

At some point, you have to leave the cottage. Shane drives Ilya to the airport.

The Distance (4k, Scott/Kip, Rated E, Kip POV)

There's no clean break for Kip. Takes place in the stretch of time between the Sochi Olympics to the 2017 Cup Final and deals with the push and pull of Scott and Kip's relationship while Scott is still closeted. (low-key, not to review my own fic, but this is probably my favorite thing I've ever written, strangely enough)

Talking on the Phone at My Parents' House (2k, Shane/Ilya, Rated T, Shane POV)

Scott Hunter kisses some guy on the ice. Ilya calls Shane to tell him he’s coming to the cottage. Shane must handle several things at once. (Shane is on the phone with Ilya and Yuna won't leave him the fuck alone to gather his thoughts)

a man of his word (2k, Shane/Ilya, Rated E, Ilya POV, Tampa All-Stars missing scene, a take on the sex scene)

Shane Hollander had decided it was time to have feelings. To make them known at least, and now the same determination that drove him down the ice toward the goal was aimed at Ilya; aimed at the very heart of him. (this was my first HR fic and I don't think I quite got their voices right, but I'm still including it for posterity lol)

therapy should just be One Session where they just slough off all the Goo and then you’re done. Will someone please take my Goo

[haunted-phantom-student]

When Ilya Rozanov makes Shane Hollander come three times in a row he crows obnoxiously about scoring a hat trick and it would annoy Shane a lot more if he hadn't just come three times in a row send tweet

[probablily]

also its important to me that shane Knew he was gay the whole time, it was this Thing itches in the back of his brain, something he couldn't look at head on or really think about. bc admitting it was like giving up. but its not that he didn't Know. shane hollander didn't have to have rose tell him hes gay for him to be like "oh huh really i hadn't noticed" bc he Knew. and you can see it so clearly on his face in that scene how he knew. how thinking about it scares him, how Really looking at this part of himself feels impossible. but again shanes not just completely unselfaware, he knows this about himself he just Hopes he can make it work. that it doesnt really matter. he likes rose Enough, he likes girls Enough, it can be Enough

[serenthelioness]

Go Off, Hudson...

Okay, I see you with your facial acting range. Awww, Shane - stay away from the evil man...

[grabmyboner]

i think shane would be secretly really chuffed at getting ilya pregnant with twins (through the power of his ass) like… he’d be all bashful about it when his team mates are like Hollzy you sly dog with your freak swimmers!!! And he’s like haha guysss and waves them off doing his little Kermit the frog smile but actually on the inside he’s like Yeah I fucking knocked my husband up with twins bitch he’s got two of my babies growing inside him he’s mine they’re mine im a fucking king.

[grabmyboner]

shane just showing pregnant ilya off like he wants everyone to see that he did that and that ilya is his and it’s all his and he takes such good care of ilya and makes him so happy and loved and safe and everyone must know this. they must know ilya belongs to shane

[gimmiekiss1221]

it's the summer of 2019 and ilya is in the kitchen at the cottage pulling everything out to begin prepping dinner. he knows shane will join him in a minute, just as soon as he's finished his video call with farah and yuna about an upcoming brand deal. he's got the radio turned on for background noise as he starts setting things up.

'you're listening to ènergie rouge fm, up next we have the latest single from taylor swift'

ilya is nodding his head along, not really paying much attention to the lyrics, but he likes the sort of retro vibe the music has, like he's at a dance hall in the 60s. he consults the recipe pulled up on his phone to see what spices he needs to pull out of the cabinet.

'...can i go where you go? can we always be this close?'

he grabs what he needs and sets them out on the counter in front of him. he grabs a carrot and starts to carefully chop it up.

'...you're my, my, my, my; lover...'

ilya immediately stills. a wide grin spreads across his face as he processes the words. it's at that moment that shane walks in.

"hey." he murmurs, smiling sweetly as he leans in to kiss ilya's cheek. "what's so funny?"

ilya turns to face him, still grinning like an idiot. "you know shane, taylor swift thinks it is okay to call your boyfriend your lover. i think everyone would agree with her over you."

shane rolls his eyes. "oh my god ilya, what're you even talking about?"

"the song right now, she says 'you're myyyy loverrrrr." he sing songs. shane stops and listens.

'...i take this magnetic force of a man to be my... lover...'

shane shakes his head, though can't help but smile stupidly back at his boyfriend, at his own magnetic force of a man. he raises his brows in surprise as ilya holds his hand out.

"dance with me, lyubimyy."

shane lets out what could only be described as a giggle. "really?"

"yes, sweetheart. come here."

shane takes ilya's hand and presses close; laying his head on ilya's shoulder as his other arm wraps tightly around the other man's neck.

neither of them really knew how to dance, but they slowly swayed along to the melody anyway.

'...and at every table i'll save you a seat, lover...'

"ya tebya lyublyu, shanya." ilya whispered into his ear, his fingers gently running through his hair. shane nuzzled in closer to ilya's throat.

"i love you too, ilya."

'...darling you're my, my, my, my... lover'

shane decided then and there that maybe it wasn't such a bad word after all.

[eemolu]

don't get me wrong i love the fact that shane and ilya retcon their relationship to be love at first sight. like good for them!! but when i look at the source material im like .. you were charmed. you were jealous. he had everything you wanted (supportive family and his country behind him, able to be big and brash and move through life with ease) and you wanted to see if you could make him feel good (can you debauch the golden boy, can you be good for the man who's had everyone) but the love didn't come until you started to take apart the things that attracted you to this person in the first place. shane fell in love with the ilya who checked in on him and with the sweetness behind the barbs and with the ilya who couldn't stop kissing him in that stairwell. and ilya fell in love with the shane who thinks buffalo is stupid and can barely get his shoes off before he throws himself at ilya and can't tell his parents he's gay because he's suffocating behind his own image not because he thinks they don't love him but because he wants to honor everything they've done for him. and so it's really nice that ilya goes "i loved you from the first time i saw you" but i, omniscient reader, call bullshit. i think you love that boy now because no version of you could ever not love any version of him. but at the time i think you were mostly just curious and then the love grew despite all odds in the most hostile of circumstances because everything you learned about each other made you want more and more and more. and also probably that's even MORE beautiful. so.

[darlingofdots]

the thing is that Shane LOVES when Ilya is an asshole and he is right there with him. he's joyfully participating. he's setting him up for jokes so he can enjoy the punchline when Ilya delivers. they're gonna be cuddling on the sofa watching a game and tearing every single player to strips while giggling and jerking each other off. asshole4asshole relationship 💖

[hudconvent]

can i share my controversial opinion

[hudconvent]

i like when ilya is nice to shane

[sexchangedotcom]

ancient roman women whose husband keeps looking at the neighbour's boy quintus and he never looks at her that way and she can't even chainsmoke in the kitchen because they don't have marlboro blues in ancient times. and she can't even go to the club because they haven't discovered drum and bass music yet. her friend clodia's having visions of a woman named doechii but neither of them knows what that means

[ellisonwongparty]

actually have nothing funny or snarky to say about episode 5. this is just actually the most moving and heartwrenching television i've ever witnessed and it changed my life. it changed so many people's lives. sometimes i'm like the hr hype is lowkey a little too insane and then i watch this episode and i feel like the world writ large actually underreacted to how legendary this episode was. i too would actually soul bond with francois, hudson, and connor if i witnessed this live in the dead of winter.

[ellisonwongparty]

like i'm sorry rr/tierney ate with this....... like the idea that someone else coming out being the impetous for you yourself taking a big leap of faith too is so like. what being gay and in a community is about. like you just literally don't know you aren't the only one if someone doesn't come out and do something so ridiculously brave. sorry i'm being so earnest about this because i'm writing this mid tears. like that thing jacob said about how scott's coming out needs to be outlandish and loud to contrast the like quiet and tender coming together of shane and ilya. the problem with this show is that it's literally that good.

[lesbian-stick-handling]

Interviews with hockey players are fantastic, because it is a complex game that can be spoken about at length, but during the intermission they'll find the Wettest player imaginable on the losing team and for thirty seconds they'll ask them things like "what do you need to do to get more pucks in the net?" And the player (panting, haunted behind the eyes) says something like "well, we've got to get them in there"
