He’d left Russia, he was uneasy in America, and he’d spent his entire adult life drifting between continents and between lovers. But now he had been reeled in by this annoying Canadian, and all that he knew was that he wanted to stay. He wanted to anchor himself to Shane and just...stay.

Shane and Ilya having dinner at Yuna's and David's house:

Shane - embarrassed, uncomfortable, crashing out

Ilya - having the best day ever, enjoying the first made by mom meal he's had in over a decade, briefly pausing shoveling pasta into his mouth to calm down his boyfriend and give him a little kiss

he was bracing himself for bad news

[eastofshane]

do you ever think about ilya and just go a little insane? I mean, that's the guy who won the stanley cup for his dead mother. he wears his mother's necklace. he keeps ginger ale in his fridge for shane. he play fights with svetlana. he got nervous when shane kissed him on the forehead after they had sex. he tried to combe back his hair back before opening the door for shane. he asked shane to stay. he made shane a tuna melt. he played with kids in the pool. he gets scared of loon noises. he cried when he told shane he loved him. he confessed his love in russian first. he checked the meaning of compatible to make sure he understood what it meant. he wanted to hold shane's hand at the beach. he devoured those spaghetti. he loves being shane's boyfriend. he loves being part of a family that actually loves him. he is so full of love!

actually do you know what I’m glad this season only has six episodes. I cannot keep logging onto my silly little corporate teams meetings while thinking about shane riding that d like it was his job. I am 33 years old. I have a mortgage. I have not opened this app in ten years. I have spent the last 3 evenings madly writing fan fiction. I am NOT DOING WELL but equally I have never felt so ALIVE

Queer Miracle!

Okay. Okay. Okay. Is there a universe where Hollanov, FirstPrince and Mslex exist on the same time and space? Like could we pull this off in a project IRL? This scenario popped into my head randomly last night, and now I'm OBSESSED!!!!! 3 of my favourite fake couples (forget sexual preference) EVER in even just ONE scene together?!?!? You know what? NVM. I'll probably not survive it, and I don't need that to be the story of my untimely demise.🤣

One of my favorite little details from episode 5 is when Ilya texts Shane to come over for an hour, even though they don't have much time. Shane immediately texts back--multiple times--that they have a game tonight! and scowling at his phone, texting no!, it's a terrible idea!, meanwhile the entire time he is getting dressed to go over there. What a way to communicate that their bickering is foreplay, that Shane does this specifically because he likes being contradictory, he likes being bothered by Ilya, that that just is their dynamic and Shane is 100% into it.

HEATED RIVALRY 1.06: THE COTTAGE + HRTwT VERSION

[alittlefrenchtree]

The precedent Hudson and Connor are setting in terms of press tour is absolutely insane. Marketing teams everywhere are going to look at their two random leads who barely tolerate each other and say "we want you do that" and "that" starts with a mating dance all over the floor of a wrap party and ends with moaning in each other ears for 3 hours 😭 The least crazy thing they did is a matching tattoo that say sex sells can you imagine?? 💀

[honeyglazedbabe]

Also can i say that i think the elevation of Svetlana’s inclusion in the show was so fantastic not just because Ilya needed another character in his life to bounce off of dialogue wise but also because it showed how he behaves when he’s comfortable. He’s always laying in her lap and getting pet, joking around with silly voices, he likes to play and rough house and we see glimpses of that with Svet because she’s his childhood friend, so slowly seeing those behaviors come out as he gets more settled with Shane was so incredibly sweet and rewarding.

conner storrie going from silly lil texas born boy to tortured bisexual russian in seconds flat is fucking diabolical

meanwhile hudson williams portraying a submissive autistic canadian while actually being an uncensored freak (affectionate) is something else entirely

[intergalacticmca]

Hudson Williams is acting his ass off as Shane Hollander and in my opinion a lot of criticism about his performance is directed at clearly intentional acting choices.

He deserves just as much credit and flowers as Connor does. Shane is an incredibly difficult role to play and the amount of work he’s doing with his face and body is immaculate. His stilted line delivery feels like a very intentional portrayal of his emotional repression and social awkwardness.

[skyrigel]

what makes it even more funny is that shane didn't date Rose to rub it on Ilya's face he just happened to like her for who she is, infact shane didn't even think it would rub on Ilya let alone make him lose his damn mind, breaking leg, mouthing ears, agressive depressive jerking. like great, we know who's the CRASHOUT of the relationship and its not the man who tears up when there's no goodbye kissie

[millenialmfa]

I would be totally fine watching Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie “fall in love” in various ways over the next 50 years. Don’t separate them.

I’m talking like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy.

Let my screen be filled with various love story interpretations as they age and grow and change.

We have 2, I need at least 5 👀
