Heated Rivalry Week 2026 | Day 1: Favorite Episode | Episode 4 + text posts

it’s their first season playing together and a video goes around of ilya calling shane sweetheart on the ice. it sparks a dumb controversy where people are calling them unprofessional and speculating that their teammates are uncomfortable having a couple on the team.

cut to their next game where the centaurs have assigned each of their players their own unhinged pet name. bood is big daddy. hayes: snookums. troy is doll face. luca is obviously baby boy.

when asked about it in a press conference, coach weibe is just like, "every player in hockey gets a nickname or two. the centaurs are just a little more creative than most teams. why, is it making people uncomfortable?"

What Ilya says: Hollander.

What Ilya means: #loml #sweetheart #autistic angel #hockey god #hottest man alive #literal sunshine #endearing little bilingual shit #my future husband

The way he went from "Holy shit" I just hooked up with a man to "Holy shit" this man loves me.

God I love these little details.

I like to think the Tunameltdown chirping never ends. They’re in their 50s and Shane innocently asks Ilya if he wants a tuna melt for lunch and Ilya goes, “Yes, but let me hide your running shoes first.” Shane just throws a fork at him.

"Yeah I'm probably autistic but I'm also a closeted gay non-white hockey player fucking my archrival on the downlow so honestly I'm gonna pick a struggle at this point"

And then the struggle he picks is his fashion sense.

“Ilya couldn’t believe what he had been reduced to. He was...infatuated. It was disgusting. But it was hard to care when Shane was lying on top of him (…) His bangs hanging down to brush Ilya’s nose. His dark eyes, and his freckles, and his smile. Shane looked so happy. Somehow, Ilya made him happy. Ilya wanted to always make him happy.”

I desperately need more fics that focus on people's surprise that Shane Hollander, Mr. Polite Canadian with his Media Perfect Smile and Practiced Bland Answers and Good Sportsmanship and Sweetheart "Let's Go!" Cheer when he beat Scott and Ilya's time at All-Stars, to realize that the real Shane's vocabulary is literally 30% the word "fuck". "Fuck you", "fuck off", "you fucking moron", "I fucking hate you", "this fucking guy", "go fuck yourself", "are you fucking kidding me", "I will fucking kill you, motherfucker", "fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!" are all things he will say within 45 minutes of showing up to practice. I need more fics of everyone being a little shellshocked about just how much Shane Hollander swears and meanwhile Ilya is just laughing in the background because he told people Shane swore like a sailor and nobody believed him until now.
