polyamory would not always fix the love triangle. sometimes it would make it much, much worse. but they should do it anyway
i love men if only they weren’t evil
actually i would rather chop my own arm off than feel like i am inconveniencing someone. thus rendering myself an even bigger inconvenience
having good friends can literally save your life

santa claus but instead of naughty or nice i judge if uve been banal or avant garde
#myshane pretends he’s not nosy or a gossip but #myilya films one of those videos where he pretends to be on the phone with someone going “she said WHAT? to WHO?” and shane is like. hey. hey. who are you talking to—is this harris. who said something. what did she say. is this about lapointe’s new girlfriend. ilya what did she say
one thing in the hr fandom i keep noticing is the weird political performance of wokeness. comes in many forms, not gonna and cannot touch on everything. there is one specific thing, though.
your main character is russian. you engage with russian culture, like it or not, historical or current – it is imperial, colonial, and genocidal. there's no way around it. you can glaze over some of it, fine, but if you're willing to make ilya neutral or outright anti-establishment (making ilya anti-war etc.), it means you are engaging with the russian character of ilya, who is unseparable from government association as a professional athlete with military family. you are taking a very problematic character and situation and working with it. and it's fine! i can't tell you how fine it is! you should do it!
i'm really, really confused why this fandom then acts like israeli authors can't write fanfiction about the character being connected to israel. putting aside this being very realistic – there are many, MANY russian jews who are repatriating – no, please. how is israel different from russia. i'm ostensibly anti-zionist, pro-palestinian in my politics in real life. but i am also anti-war russian. i can understand the difference between engaging in zionist propaganda in real life and examining certain themes in fiction, borrowing and representing culture, writing out personal experience for a plethora of reasons.
how is israel different from russia, in this context. aside from the liberal public in u s of a building identity around anti-zionism and not giving a fuck about ukraine since 2022. please. genuinely explain it to me please.
the fact that shane's canadian & ilya's russian will always bring such an unbridled amt of joy it's not even funny, like maybe this is stupid but that's genuinely the cutest thing in the world to me i seriously think abt it sm 😭😭
like i'll literally cry thinking about shane making it his personal mission to find the best russian restaurant within a hundred miles, buying everything the little бабушка recommends practically the whole store because if ilya can't go home then he'll spend the rest of his life bringing little pieces of home to him instead.
& then ilya slowly starts collecting little canadian things without even noticing. picking up hollander family habits. saying something the way shane's family says it. reaching for the same snacks. making coffee the same way. catching himself doing something and thinking, ...when did i start doing that? because somewhere along the way loving shane became indistinguishable from becoming a little bit like him.
they're just little bugs..inlove...learning how to belong to each other without asking either of them to leave themselves behind 😭
if shane and ilya ever do get divorced or even if they do a trial separation, that ottawa mcmansion is becoming a grey gardens style dilapidated haunted house as soon as shane turns out of the drive. the centaurs send a group to go check in on Roz and despite the fact that its been a week maximum, all the grass is knee high and there are cobwebs everywhere. Somehow dust has settled everywhere but especially on all their wedding photos. Windows are broken and chunks of plaster keep crumbling off the walls. Ilya keeps talking about the banging cabinets keeping him awake and how he keeps waking up at 3 am in the garden and that he has to keep an eye out for the tiger and no one knows if he’s still talking in metaphors because the other stuff must be a metaphor. And then news hits that he was mauled by a real tiger so maybe the other stuff was real too.
the centaurs also send a convoy over to shane’s rental property that he’s been staying in and there are a million candles in this minimalist condo and shane’s like “sorry there’s this like weird smell i can’t find the source of. like remember when LP hit that deer and the mechanic couldn’t get the blood out of the vent system but he also refused to get a new car so he just drove around with all his windows rolled down in the dead of winter because he needed to air out the dead deer smell? yeah, kind of like that.” and they go wow shane that sounds bad why don’t you go somewhere else and he goes “oh I checked out a different condo earlier but the smell was still there. Or like it started when i walked in. Yeah like I never noticed it before when i did inspections. Weird, huh? I gotta get my super on that. I mean it’s not the smell thats bugging me it’s the buzzing.” and then he doesn’t elaborate.
the trifecta
writing hollanov smut in the living room of my parents place in toronto as two ukrainian contractors install curtains around me. the way god intended
If Shane suddenly got bitten and became a vampire he’d just carry on like everything is normal. Yeah no the sun kinda crisps me up a bit but it’s fine. I’m ravenous all the time for something I can’t name…. usual shit …
