I still cannot fathom the HEATED RIVALRY fandom, where even before it exploded it was full of so many talented authors who were having an absolutely great time and giving us so much humor and angst and smut (all the things that I love in a good fandom), but since the show started? It has been a long time since I've been so consumed with trying to keep up with it all, to the point of watching entire reactions that are over an hour long, because I cannot get enough of watching people fall in love with these characters and these actors as I have.

I once again meant to post this sooner, but somehow it was just "oh, I'll read a couple more stories first..." and then, WHAM, suddenly it's a week later and I'm stumbling back into the room in a fugue state with a desperate need to make everyone read a bunch of fic with me, because I have spent that entire time shriek-laughing and/or crying because the feelings are so intense. I AM UNWELL IN THE MOST HEALTHY WAY I HAVE BEEN IN A LONG TIME BECAUSE OF THIS FANDOM.

HEATED RIVALRY - NO I WON’T BE CHILL ABOUT THE GAY HOCKEY PLAYERS SHOW:

One Bite for Luck by PrincessOfTheDesert, ilya/shane & centaurs, 2.1k The Ottawa Centaurs don’t believe in superstitions. They believe in routines, rituals, and whatever Shane Hollander eats before a game.

they'll come around by falleraatje, ilya/shane & david/yuna, 1.1k He was about to get up, maybe just to check out of the window really quick that Shane was fine, but before he could move, he heard David clear his throat. Right, Shane’s Dad was still here, sitting opposite him and looking at him expectantly.

It's hard but it's harder to ignore it by losernotfound, ilya/shane & david/yuna, 1.4k “I think I saw your charger.” David blinks as he turns back in his chair. “I’m sorry?”

the fanmail incident(s) by kwonflwr, ilya/shane & hayden & ocs, 3.4k Hayden Pike is notoriously terrible at noticing the many details his FanMail videos contain. It's a good thing that fans know how to keep silent.

Chemistry, huh? (or how Ilya Rozanov gets added to the Hollander family group chat) by you-cant-spell-subtext-without (ayreisha), ilya/shane & david, 2.3k “Uh, Ilya? More vodka?” David offers tentatively. “Sure, okay. Maybe one more,” Ilya says. He’s not entirely sure what's considered an acceptable drink limit for the occasion of ‘Surprise! Your son is gay and I’ve been fucking him in secret under the nose of the entire MHL and Scott Hunter in the hotel room next door, and I’m in love with him, actually,’ but given the look on his face, well - David might need the second drink more than Ilya does at this present moment.

a marvelous night for a loon dance by powerfulowl (playmyace), ilya/shane & david/yuna, 3.2k The morning after Scott Hunter comes out in sweaty, ice-swept technicolour, Shane Hollander wakes up with a soulmate loon.

In Dissonance by cjr2, ilya/shane & hayden, 1.9k High on pain meds after his injury, Shane entrusts his phone to Hayden to answer his texts and tell everyone he's okay. Hayden realizes that no one else would have called Lily, because no one else knows she even exists.

Shane Hollander's Unexpected Nurse by mightyd0lphin, ilya/shane & hayden & j.j., 4.3k When Shane falls ill and isn't answering his phone, Hayden and JJ decide to be responsible teammates and go check on him. They find a very sick Shane, and a very surprising caretaker.

So, you like New Yorker? by oxfordcommachameleon, ilya/shane & david/yuna, 1.5k While Shane is outside with his mother, Ilya finds unexpected understanding and warmth in a quiet kitchen conversation with the man who helped raised the boy he loves.

Jealous by AC91, ilya/shane & hayden & svetlana, NSFW, 2.6k Shane never thought of himself as a jealous person. But Ilya Rozanov made him feel like he was losing his mind.

last one to leave the bleachers every time by Anonymous, ilya/shane & david/yuna, 4.5k She’s not mad, David wants to say. We’re so proud of you. We’re so happy for you. We just didn’t know. Somehow we missed it, you falling in love.

The Interview by ticketyboo00, ilya/shane & cliff & cast, 3.1k wip Several years into Rozanov’s career, ESPN hires a reporter fluent in Russian. Suddenly able to answer questions fluently and with a wide vocabulary, Rozanov’s interviews go viral. Hockey fans around the world get a new look at what they thought about Boston’s #81. This changes not only his public persona, but his whole life.

something you can fix by some1_around, ilya/shane & hayden/jackie & david/yuna & j.j. & rose & cast, nsfw, 26.8k Shane’s conversation with Rose is secretly recorded. Months later, after the All-Star game and Ilya’s confession in Russian, the video gets leaked online. Shane is outed to the world while Ilya is in Russia, and must now finish the 2016-2017 season with the entire world in on his secret.

you know this moment, don’t you? (time is strangely calm now) by barnes_romzanov, ilya/shane & david/yuna & hayden, nsfw, suicidal ideation/themes, 15.4k Ilya’s mostly been able to cope with the fact that he’ll never be able to articulate himself fully in this country- but he’s also never been good at talking about feelings in the first place. "I'm tired" is the best he's got. It definitely doesn't capture what's going on in his head, and Shane can't read minds.

The Ottawa Centaurs Test Their Gaydar by wintersteddy, ilya/shane & troy, 3.1k Shane Hollander, Troy Barrett, and Ilya Rozanov stand in a blank white room with a text appearing above them saying, “We asked the Ottawa Centaurs to test their gaydar. First, they ranked themselves on how good they think they will do.” A straight line graphic appears hovering over them. The furthest left part of the line says “Worst” and the furthest right says “Best.” TROY I hate to say this, but I do think Ilya has got this in the bag. Like, I don’t think me or Hollander have a chance.

bruises on his knuckles, honey on his lips by yu_gin, ilya/shane & david/yuna, 3.1k Yuna and David had known about Ilya Rozanov since he first crossed their son's path. But after that day at the cottage, they discover a whole new aspect behind the mask that Ilya has worn for all those years.

Bell Ringer by fakinbrilliance, ilya/shane & hayden & svetlana & rose, 7.5k “Shane?” Ilya asks again. “What happened?” His gloveless hand twitches and he lifts it a fraction of an inch towards Shane. Shane tosses his own gloves to the ice and reaches forward, lacing their fingers together. “You took a bad hit,” he says, gritting his teeth against the fear clawing at his guts. “Flipped headfirst into the ice. Are you okay?” [...] “Hollander, get back to your bench,” someone says, but there’s no way Shane’s going. Even if he wanted to, Ilya’s gripping his hand like a lifeline, eyes finally locked on Shane’s face. Shane isn’t leaving him.

A Weird Day by dobbydowner, ilya/shane & hayden/jackie, 2k Shane finally comes out to Hayden, and Hayden puts two and two together surprisingly easily...

madra by marigoldens, ilya/shane, 4.2k Ilya’s speeding, for once, has consequences, and there’s only one person he can call for help.

MORE RECS UNDER THE CUT because this post would be three miles long if I didn't and I love you all too much to do that to you.

side effects may include: caring, falling in love, lying to yourself by renecdote, ilya/shane, NSFW, 2.5k Ilya is hurt. Shane doesn't care (lying). Sex is obviously the sensible thing to do here.

I Keep Trying, But He's Quite Wiley by spaceboyharry, ilya/shane & hayden, NSFW, 7.2k Hayden Pike has just discovered Ilya Rozanov's plans to murder Shane Hollander, and he is panicking, ok?

the come up, the blow up by Ravenesta, ilya(/shane) & scott(/kip), 1.9k Scott’s not really surprised to spot Ilya Rozanov backstage, getting lightly swarmed by a crowd of sound techs and hair and makeup crew. Even on the rare year that neither of them were getting any awards, the League always tried to get either him or Hollander, and preferably both, presenting something. And since Hollander was still out for the count and recovering up in Ottawa, that left Rozanov, standing awkwardly while a harried-looking woman straightened his bow-tie.

just another ilya & the WAGs fic by taslowrites, ilya/shane & jackie & ocs, nsfw, 1.4k a chatfic featuring ilya rozanov + the montreal WAGS

Third Round Draft Pick by arenasoundsystem (cutflowersounds), ilya(/shane), 1.9k "Mister Rozanov," the Centaurs' GM says, standing and holding out his hand for Ilya to shake. "Welcome to Ottawa."

it'll cost you, not enough to bring you down by notlichenthis, ilya(/shane) & kip(/scott), 2.6k "You are Hunter's boyfriend," the guy says, looming. He's holding a glass of vodka that probably costs more than what Kip earns in a day.

morality clause by canadadry, ilya/shane & david/yuna, 5.6k Shane is many things, and she is so, so excited to see how much more he becomes… but, for all of the many things she imagines in his future, she doesn’t see him doing anything that could be accurately described as disreputable, contemptible, or, god forbid, scandalous.

Personal (Surprise) Chef by ellipsister, ilya(/shane) & ryan/fabian, 6.8k wip Ryan Price has contingency plans for aliens, penthouse floods and the occassional emotional breakdown (his own). Finding Ilya Rozanov in his apartment - door code proudly abused and cooking food - still comes as a greater shock. Ilya on the other hand would summarize the evening in four efficient steps: Use Code. Cook. Couch. Cry internally (optional).

ring ring ring (yeah it's super important) by gurlsrool, ilya/shane & hayden & rose & yuna, 1.4k Shane: omg how did you know im on pain meds? u know everything! Shane: like how I’m gay Rose: Shane, don’t tell people you’re gay right now, okay? Shane: I know I know

biweekly appointment by Anonymous, ilya/shane & yuna, 2.5k Ilya drives Yuna to an appointment. He’s spent maybe five minutes with her alone and is stressed about making a decent impression.

Happy Holidays = Happy Endings by FuryRed, ilya/shane, NSFW, 2.8k It’s their first Christmas together, and Shane is determined to make it special. Ilya, on the other hand, is determined to defile Shane in his childhood bedroom. And anywhere else he can have him.

Shane Hollander Is Not Here to Explain Himself by theaa, ilya/shane & yuna & ocs, 5k Now thirty-one, Hollander is sitting across from me on a soft leather couch, part of a home study in the Muskoka lake house he owns. (His parents’ cottage, the one from his childhood, is a ten-minute drive away.) It’s a tastefully decorated room, with big ceiling-high windows that let in plenty of summer light, and walnut shelves full of books — mostly sports-related. Hollander looks at home here, dressed in a loose pair of light-wash jeans and a plain navy t-shirt, which shows off his impressive arm muscle. Everything is just the right side of comfortably casual.

I Hope She's Good To You by timesomewhere, ilya/shane & hayden/jackie & cliff & rose, 3.7k Waiting to visit Shane in the hospital after his injury, Rose, Marlow, and Jackie, have separate realisations about who 'Lily' and 'Jane', may really be. Hayden is also there.

the con of being well by PandaMoth, ilya/shane, suicidal ideation/themes, 1.3k “If,” Ilya hesitates. Speaks slowly. “If the rot won, would you forgive me?” He watches Shane process his words. Sees the exact moment he registers exactly what that means, and then watches him process more emotions than Ilya thinks one body should be able to hold. “No,” Shane says, soft but sure. “I wouldn’t. I couldn’t.”

needy by wow_genetic81, ilya/shane, NSFW, omegaverse, 7.7k Shane feels like another person entirely when he breathes out a quiet, “Yes.” “Then come, omega,” Rosanov hums. “Let’s get you fucked.”

transfixed by the inner sound by garlic09, ilya/shane, 1.8k What drew Ilya’s eyes was not Hollander himself, but rather what he was holding. A baby. Hollander was holding a baby.

so take a step before you start falling by thaws, ilya/shane, 1.5k Since becoming captain of the Centaurs, commentators say that Ilya Rozanov has made a point to tone down his antics on the ice in.

andante, andante (oh, please don’t let me down) by lovedays, ilya/shane, nsfw, suicidal ideation/themes, 5.1k It’s automatic, taking care of Anya like this. Despite the darkness in his head, and the pit resting in his ribs, Ilya manages to ground himself to her.

He says it like he really means, You don’t want me? “That isn’t what I mean,” Shane says gently, brushing his thumb over Ilya’s cheekbone. Ilya’s eyes flutter shut, as if being treated so tenderly causes him physical pain. Like he isn’t used to it. “You’re hurting. I don’t want you to regret it in the morning.” Ilya’s eyes open. “I have never regretted a moment with you.”
