HUDSON WILLIAMS as SHANE HOLLANDER Heated Rivalry (2025-) 1.01 "Rookies"

[chachi-baby]

I like to imagine Rose’s brothers gave her shit for not sticking it out with Shane Hollander long enough for him to meet the family then when they find out it’s because Shane is gay they give her shit for not passing him along to one of them and she’s like??? you’re not gay??? to which they’re like !!!! everyone’s gay for Shane Hollander, Ilya Rozanov ain’t special

Hudson Williams, #1 Shane Understander

I think Shane was a character who, soon as I read him, made all the sense to me. I felt immediately a kinship and an ownership over Shane. I was like, “I need to be the only person to tell this story. I get it. I want to be the person to be Shane and I want to spend time with him.” [x]

shane taking care of ilya ♥️

Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams presenting Mumford & Sons on Saturday Night Live (February 28th, 2026)

jacob tierney gave us a voicemail.

“hey, this is ilya, i will never listen to your voicemail”.

and it has just hit me like a freight train how devastating that specific wording will sound, when a certain shane is desperate to contact his boyfriend during a certain event in the long game (season 2).

jacob you’re a genius and i love your emotionally destructive mind

[bambicoded]

it's important to me that ilya remains captain of the centaurs after shane joins, but i have a specific picture in my mind of shane being assistant captain and being generally harmless and super chill , so the centaurs see him as like the chill parent (something to be said about shane being content in letting someone else, specifically His Someone, have the reins and enjoying not being in charge) but then ilya has to be out for a few weeks for like health or smth so shane goes into Captain Mode and the centaurs are scared shitless by how intense he gets all of a sudden. the most intense drills of all time. the hardest plays they've ever heard of. the strictest practices on earth. and they suddenly understand why shane led the metros/voyagers to victory so many times and why ilya treats him like the boss in their relationship. and then as soon as ilya comes back he turns it off and the centaurs are like Oh Thank Fuck Because What The Hell Was That

Shane loves his personal space. Ilya also loves Shane's personal space.

i like this show in a cool ironic detached intellectual way btw

a lot of fic leaning into the whole ilya is a horny motherfucker who wants to fuck all the time and shane is like prissy about it like No we can’t because X Y and Z and not nearly enough fic depicting the opposite

“shane wouldn’t let ilya hit it during-”

shane would let ilya hit if the roof blew off their house and they started tumbling through a tornado over the rainbow

shane would let ilya hit if someone seriously sat him down and said there is a 5% chance you will die the next time a dick is inside you he is taking those odds

shane would let ilya hit if his whole extended family dead and alive were asleep in the house he would simply tell ilya to muffle him into the pillow

shane would let ilya hit on stage behind a curtain being held up by one single thread

ilya could break both his legs and arms and he’d be like well shame we can’t fuck and shane would put on his big Yuna Hollander Patented lets-solve-this-problem eyes and go We WILL make it work.

Normally Shane doesn't meet Ilya's eyes during their face-offs.

But in the last one he not only catches his eye but he *smiles* and Ilya fucking *melts*.

Ilya knows by this point eye contact does not come naturally to Shane so seeing him actively seek it out and seem so comfortable and relaxed probably made Ilya feel all warm and fuzzy.

[sunnys1de-d0wn]

so i was watching heated rivalry (again) and paused randomly on the gem of a moment that is david assuming they've been together since the All-Star game and i laughed so hard because THIS-

is the face of a man who's going to have to tell his parents that no, it hasn't been about 6 months, maybe try 7. Years, actually. of him fucking his arch rival and proceeding to pathetically fall head over heels for him. Despite said arch rival being a man. And his rival. And an egoistic asshole, in theory.

AND SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM IS THIS GUY-

who whored himself out put unspeakable amounts of effort into kickstarting this situationship-turned-marriage before his career even took off solely to witness this exact moment in time HES SO SO PROUD OF HIMSELF LOOK AT HIM OHMYGODDDD IM CRYING💀
