Shane loves sex with Ilya. He was, however, concerned about a few things. The most pressing worry was the fact that he knots pretty much every time they did anything. In a panic for answers after inviting Ilya to spend two weeks with him at his cottage, Shane takes to reddit for some advice.

Author Notes under the cut!
Author Notes:
It all started when TheQueenOfFish proposed this idea in the HR writers' discord server, the rest is history...
No, but fr... this fic was so much fun to write collectively! Writing Ilya's parts were so much fun against TheQueenOfFish' Shane interpretation!
Aside from Ilya, other characters from the Game Changers' series show up too! 👀 (Have fun finding them among the reddit users!)
And finally, the coding was a collective effort to bring an accurate Reddit experience! 😆 (I fought against so many div's). So I hope that it works just as fine for mobile users/readers!

I had a lot of fun working on this with everyone! It was super fun to collaborate on a fic :) Happy reading!

I had the idea for this fic when I sent a version of the original ‘Reddit post’ to my friend, (schoolofdove here on ao3) who responded to it with a Reddit comment. It was so much that I had to pitch it as an idea in the server! So thank you to schoolofdove for inspiring the idea of a collective Reddit au, and for always being so encouraging and wonderful ❤️ Some of their original response lives on in the medical student thread!
It was a blast writing this style of fic. Thank you to all my co-authors for being so wonderful and witty! And for being so adept with the various work skins this fic uses! I couldn’t have done it without them!!
Apologies that the world didn’t see it earlier. I held up the posting by being very busy LARPing, and then going off shore sailing with friends 😂
Ilya had a tradition of doing spring-time tea with his mom as a kid. Normal lunch sandwiches cut into strips, using the Good Teapot and putting the milk in the little jug instead of pouring it straight from the carton. He was allowed to invite his friends (Sasha and/or Sveta) too.
I think he sees a boogie Ottawa hotel advertising Mother's Day High Tea and asks if Yuna wants to go (even tho Shane's out of town for playoffs).
So then it becomes a tradition for him to take Yuna to tea for Mother's Day, and sometimes he'll find places that do it year round and surprise Yuna for her birthday/Christmas/just because.
Shane brings it up to Svetlana who explains and even has a picture in her apartment somewhere. Next time Montreal plays Boston Shane and Sveta spend the whole day looking for the picture.
They find it, and it's a picture of Ilya at 10, Svetlana and Irina on either side, and the fancy "good" teapot and matching little milk jug and sugar bowl and tea cups are in the frame.
After they're married Shane spends months hunting down that exact tea set. It was a mass produced tea set, but it was made in the 80s so finding a whole set outside of Russia proves very hard. But he manages to cobble together all the pieces and on their first anniversary, at the cottage, away from the insanity of bringing Ottawa a cup after their first season playing together, he gives them to Ilya.
Ilya unwraps the milk jug first and is already crying, and then there's the sugar bowl, and the little spoon, and the teacups, and the separate spoons for stirring sugar and milk into the tea, and of course the tea pot.
They have a family tea like Ilya used to, out on the back patio, with the tea set, and Russian rye sandwiches and fillings and it tastes like Ilya's childhood.

DC confirming that Tim always kind of knew he was queer he was just too focused on everything else going on to properly acknowledge it (batman urban legends 10) was based as fuck tbh, ask a homophobe what their top ten fav Tim drake moments are and it’s possible during at least one of them he was thinking about kissing guys we just don’t know which one-

Summary:
Ilya shifted in his seat.
“…You good?” He asked, already knowing the answer was no, but also not really caring because something about this was…
“Yeah, I’m great.” Shane muttered, heavy sarcasm laced in his words. He flicked the turn signal a little too aggressively and changed lanes. “I just love when people forget how to drive.”
au where everything is the exact same but after hayden accidentally outs them shane is so stressed out that he asks ilya for a cigarette from the pack he knows is poorly hidden in his home and then they smoke outside together in silence and when they go back inside shane just like jumps back into planning mode and says nothing about it and ilya is genuinely not sure if hes terrified or turned on
Headcanon that Ilya is late to one of their hookups one time and Shane is like what kind of SICK GAME is he PLAYING. So ilya gets there and shanes super irritated which leads to some damn good sex (this is canon) and then ilya reveals that he was late because there was a canada goose in the parking lot that wouldn't let him get near the door.
i will never get a funnier comment than this on another fic. i have peaked as an author. commenter, whoever you are, how does it feel to be funny as fuck?

“It’s tiny.”
“It is fast!”
“It’s not even moving, Ilya.”

or; Post-season at the cottage, Shane learns some things about Ilya.
My hottest fanfiction take is I think people should stop posting multi-fandom oneshots as a single fic with like 50+ chapters and instead post them as individual fics
If there was one thing that anyone knew about Tim Drake, it was that he didn’t get enough sleep. It wasn’t uncommon for him to be awake for multiple days in a row, functioning off of a case of red bulls and pure spite. It was expected at this point to run into him either in the cave or at the table, typing away at a computer without any awareness of the outside world.
It was also why an unwritten rule was created. If you find Tim passed out, just leave him alone. He needs the sleep.
or; Five times someone saw Tim sleeping in a weird place and one time someone joined him.
He had grown up with expectations. He was expected to get good grades. He was expected to get into a pretentious business school. He was expected to take over the family business when he was older.
It was not expected, however, for him to be kidnapped by aliens.
