I miss Route 96 Kanata and I hope the author is doing well <3
I just neeeeeed ten thousand fics about hot cocky high-end escort ilya whose job is to fulfill his high-end clientele’s every sexual fantasy without blinking but who will never ever ever let anyone in emotionally. that’s not what he’s for and that’s not something he would ever want (LIAR!!!!!). paired with a shane who’s like oh my god it’s so fucking embarrassing that I’m falling in love with the guy I pay to fuck me. it’s so mortifying that he makes me feel safe and held and seen in ways that no one else has ever seen me and my brain interprets that as maybe we like each other. maybe there could be something tender & rare & real blossoming between us. I should probably end this and start dating a famous actress so I stop feeling confused and kind of sick about it in my head/heart
the rose of it all absolutely fucking kills me. an ilya whose half-repressed interior monologue the entire time has been this means nothing to him / you mean nothing to him / people like you aren’t real to people like him / you are on the exact same level as his personal chef or the women who clean his condo you are here to unobtrusively provide a contracted service you are utterly replaceable to him to combat all the intense emotions he’s having & the mixed signals he’s getting from shane. but underneath it all, against his better judgment, slowly letting himself feel like maybe there’s a genuine connection here. then shane terminates his contract and IMMEDIATELY is getting papped dating exactly the kind of gorgeous mega-famous actress he should be with. like really, ilya? you thought the rich hot superstar pro athlete had feelings for the help?
diabolical heatriv recs part iv:
A Friend of the Family by roadtripexpert - THEE jackie pike fic of my dreams. i read this and then i stared off into the middle distance getting emotional about women and how much i love women and their inner worlds.... has anyone else heard of women.....
ptb by cchapsticck - a really good stream of consciousness exploration of like... how race and autism interact with hockey's lack of bodily autonomy and how that plays out through violence and kink and sexuality, i guess. that makes it sound academic but it's really just what the inside of shane hollander's head is like to me.
the marble leaves the man by citrusses - ohhh ilya thinking how much he loves his beartrap his beartrap is so homey and cozy and it's proof somebody wants him, what a lucky boy he is he's never had a beartrap of his own before. his foot doesn't hurt at all stop asking about his foot.
skin still wet, still on my skin by IsvsWorld - I normally avoid genderchanged Heated Rivalry fic because I think it kind of strips the work of intended themes. this manages to expand on the themes. i cared about these characters as their own characters, not just shane-and-ilya-in-a-different-font.
with your fists for once by luminoussbeings - the intimacy of violence is the theme of the post i guess. i loved this take on ilya it felt really grimy and visceral and poetic
A Beginner's Guide to Light Weight Travel by noNic02 - did i mention i love women. SVETLANA!!!!! i loved her voice so much in this, sardonic and flighty and immature and fun and jagged and defensive and refusing to let anyone including the reader see her soft spots. and that ending. much to consider.....
HOLLANDER VS ROZANOV I by gone_girl - mein gott i really lost it at this one. like i fucking LOST it. i learned a lot about boxing, and beyond that, it just. oh my god. i felt like after i finished the movie atonement for the first time. like such a stunning aesthetically beautiful work of art that also made me feel like an empty old plastic bag.
Clean Sweep by YankingAwry - THEE ilya AU oh my god nobody has ever gotten it as much as this fic got it. i also absolutely fucking adore irina in this, she's such a whole presence. did i mention my feelings about WOMEN!!!
limerence by cloudsurfing - i haven't really delved into hanahaki before but i kinda gave it a go randomly and like oh my god. this was so good. i had so much fun. i mean it's upsetting but i had fun.
I'll Fuck You Forever, For Now by Anonymous - 🚬😑 can you come off anon i just wanna talk
this year's wine by Anonymous - THE BEST TO EVER DO ITTTT like for real my fav heated rivalry fanfiction ever written. ilya's voice is amazing, the author's style is amazing, the ability to create these little bubbles of reality is so stunning, the world feels so inhabited and full of these random side characters that are so lived in.
I See Boats Moving
by Fernando Pessoa tr. Jonathan Griffin
I see boats moving on the sea. Their sails, like wings of what I see, Bring me a vague inner desire to be Who I was without knowing what it was. So all recalls my home self, and, because It recalls that, what I am aches in me.
Love version of by Richard Scott

An early trailblazer in the fight against HIV/AIDS and a staunch and outspoken LGBTQ+ ally, Elizabeth committed her time and energy to the cause when her friend and co-star Rock Hudson was diagnosed with AIDS prior to his passing in 1985. Elizabeth went on to become a co-founder (alongside Dr. Mathilde Krim) of the first AIDS research center amfAR, and later founded her separate Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation in 1991 with the specific focus of providing nutritious meals (as well as medical and financial assistance) to people living with HIV and AIDS. She also lobbied the U.S. congress to contribute more money for AIDS research and education, devoting the last twenty-six years of her life to the cause. After Elizabeth passed away in 2011 at the age of 79, a large portion of the $156,800,000 raised at the Christie’s auction of her legendary jewelry collection was bequeathed to her charity in order to continue providing the services and assistance she believed were important in perpetuity. Still actively raising funds today, Elizabeth’s grandson Quinn Tivey is now an officer and co-trustee of her foundation. Reflecting on his grandmother’s humanitarianism and advocacy, he recently stated: “The fight against HIV/AIDS was such a vital part of her legacy, and although the fight is far from over, I’m honored to see the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation continue her work, educating legislators, raising awareness for the public, disproving myths and decreasing fear and stigma. Grandma stood up for what she believed in, living boldly and courageously. She would never buckle under pressure, and she certainly would not support the status quo if the status quo didn’t feel right.”
nobody better say a goddamned word against Elizabeth Taylor in front of me, is all I can say. She fought this fight before it was popular, before it was acceptable, even before people knew it WAS a fight. She didn’t care if it made people think less of her. She fought it.
What's the hollanov fic where there's a slowly unravelling story about abuse in the NHL ? Journalists are circling the WAGs and a data breach might out Shane and Ilya. It's terrific and I can't find it.

Just Walking Around
by John Ashbery
What names do I have for you? Certainly there is no name for you In the sense that the stars have names That somehow fit them. Just walking around,
An object of curiosity to some, But you are too preoccupied By the secret smudge in the back of your soul To say much, and wander around,
Smiling to yourself and others. It gets kind of lonely But at the same time off-putting, Counterproductive, as you realize once again
That the longest way is the most efficient way, The one that looped among islands, and You always seemed to be traveling in a circle. And now that the end is near
The segments of the trip swing open like an orange. There is light in there, and mystery and food. Come see it. Come not for me but it. But if I am still there, grant that we may see each other.
this is what happens when I'm asked to elaborate on 'the guys you're always talking about bruh who exactly are they'

everybody neeeeeds to go read this new yorker cartoon article with jacob tierney!!!!! it's so good
pretty boy in loveee
Loads of Hollanov fics have them getting walked in on while making out etc which is great
But I’d love a fic where one or both of Shane’s parents drop by the cottage for phone charger/laundry pod reasons and find Shane snuggled on the couch fast asleep on Ilya’s chest and that’s how they find out
They’re dressed in soft casual clothes, sleeping like the dead and wrapped around each other like vines and Ilya’s hand is in Shane’s hair and Shane looks so so comfortable and relaxed
Meanwhile his parents are staring slack-jawed at the sight of their son using his archenemy the Russian Rage Machine as a teddybear/pillow
Lesser known HR fics
Been lurking for a long time but think it's time to put my hat in the ring :) Been reading lots of HR fics lately, and have come across several which are just amazing but don't get enough appreciation. Most of these will have fewer than 1k kudos on ao3 - time to share the good news!!
Controlled Contact Is Still Contact by @parcai - E/36k/Complete -Part Two of the ongoing Boys Will Be Boys series
I read this this morning and it inspired me to make this post. Shane's mind in this is a sight to behold. I love Shane's obsession, the way his mind works is really something to sink your teeth into. Cannot wait for the continuation of this.
show me how to be whole again by @rozanohwell - E/43k/WIP
Shane is seriously injured prior to winning his cups. Ilya loses it. Ilya is so cruel in this, but also so hurt. Their relationship is so tense and amazing. Every chapter of this I have no idea what is coming.
