An Assortment Of Randomness

shane when he joins the ottawa centaurs:

[raccoonspew]

When #myshane is overstimulated, he takes off all of his clothes. He can’t stand all the fabrics rubbing against him. It started as a chubby toddler when he would get upset and run around the house (ass naked) while Yuna and David chased him around with pajamas. Shanebug be a big boy and let mommy put on this damn onesie an intensely exhausted Yuna would sigh.

As he grew up he obviously stopped doing it around others, but sometimes after a brutal day at school or a bad practice, in the comfort of his own room, Shane would crawl into clean sheets with nothing on and wait for sleep to take him.

He can and does persevere through the urge, of course, because Shane Hollander is an expert at perseverance.

But after he marries Ilya and starts to accept himself a little more…he has fewer issues with letting himself be comfortable.

Which is how Ilya finds his beautiful husband completely naked (except for glasses) sitting on their couch reading a book, a folded pile of clothing abandoned next to him. He filters through several reactions and settles on bewilderment. Shane looks up and smiles sheepishly.

“Sorry, I just couldn’t take all the textures right now.” He shrugged. “You don’t mind right?”

Ilya understands that this is not sexual, and is a big milestone for Shane’s self acceptance journey, so he is forced to ignore the naked elephant in the room and nod his head. He’s half-hard and so, so proud.

Hollanov_Stories_Worthy_of_Your_Time.ao3

I made a Collection ! Not sure how it works exactly but I'm gathering every Hollanov story I love in the same place. I'm a picky reader so it's a small collection with mainly (exclusively?) well known works but in case you missed some, here they are.

Quick note on the collection: They are mostly canon compliant, post canon or canon divergent stories at the very least. Shane and Ilya are always hockey players in stories I read and they first met in the same (or very similar) situation as canon. Updates any time I read a new little gem 💜.

Summary:

Ilya is a photographer with a reputation. Shane is the golden boy on every magazine cover, and he's taken. They keep running into each other at shoots and after-parties, and it turns into a hot-mess situationship that they both think it’s casual, until it wasn't. Told through flashbacks and songs that got tangled up in all of it, this is the story of two people finding their way back to each other, and back to themselves.

I loved this story, it's a 4 out of 5 for me. I loved the anguish of the two of them and the way it was narrated.
