I Say The Quiet Part Out Loud

We (rightfully) make fun of shane for putting on a suit before their first hookup but we should also be making fun of ilya for wearing a fashionable denim jacket. They were staying in the same hotel. he put that jacket on just to down the hall and up the elevator. he only wore it because he thought shane would think it looked cool (he did) and that shane would love a sexy little striptease (he did). Embarrassing!

hollanov wherein shane can understand russian better than he can speak. he has a few years under his belt studying it but just can't really speak as fluently as he wants to, he can hold simple conversations and longer ones just slower but still not as fluent as he likes. BUT he is better at listening and understanding it.

so when ilya wants to speak russian, he just does because shane understands him. he just responds in english. there are times shane encounters new words and ilya will translate it for him but for the most part, shane can understand ilya when he's speaking russian.

centaus locker room after practice and ilya's rattling out russian and shane answers in english. and theyre talking like that for a few minutes. ilya talking in russian. shane talking in english. the other centaurs cannot even guess the subject of their conversation because shane also peppers his answers with some russian words

One thing about the Hollander men; if you hit them with a social situation they don't know how to react to, they will straight up leave ✌️

call that the Hollander Goodbye

thoughts and prayers to ilya, who is marrying into a family of flight risks 🙏

Random hockey player: Shane Hollander loves hockey so much that he'd probably marry it if he could!

Shane: *marries generational hockey player and living legend Ilya Rozanov*

Random hockey player: well I'll be damned! The crazy son of a bitch did it!

shane buying a new bottle of hand soap because ilya made an off hand comment a few days ago that he liked the smell of jasmine on his hand. ilya picked up the bottle and asked “you bought different soap? i thought you liked the texture of the old one?” and shane said “well yeah, it’s the same texture, but it has the jasmine scent you like”

and ilya tears up because well the last person that cared that much about how he wanted things is svetlana having his fav scent in her oil diffuser out whenever he visits and put out his fav set of bedsheets and gets him things he couldn’t remember saying he wanted and now there’s shane who loves him too.

and so he called svetlana and went “he remembers i like jasmine hand soap” in that teary voice that sounds so out of nowhere but sveta understands. sveta always understands. and sveta tells him yes because you deserve to have people knowing things about you, and shane loves you, and i love you, and i am so happy someone loves you enough to buy that soap you like.

It's heartbreaking to think how if Shane had realized that his initial draw to Ilya was in fact attraction, if he had known he was gay at that time he never would have approached him in that parking lot.

Something tragic in the idea that him being unaware of himself and his desires was the only way he was going to actually let himself want and to act on it.

Re Ilya being the one obsessing about marriage I loooooove how their post Tampa dynamic is like

Shane: listen I like you and I think you like me too

Ilya: ok SO WHAT. What are we gonna do. Hold hands?? Kiss on the ice?? Get married?? Have three kids and a vacation home in the Dolomites because I know you’d love the skiing there?? Whisper to each other each night how lucky we are to have found each other? Die hand in hand like the end of the Notebook? Don’t be RIDICULOUS Hollander how could you even think about these things

Shane: I was thinking maybe starting with like you could come over?

shane, face down ass up panting and moaning, telling ilya to fuck him harder because “wanna still feel you inside me tomorrow when i beat your ass”, and that proves to be a challenge for ilya because that turns him on so much he almost blacks out and blows his load on the spot

shane and ilya at their daughter's peewee hockey game, judging the FUCK out of the coach for roster mismanagement and mediocre in-game adjustments.

(they don't realise that this is a middle school annual tournament for kids and not the NHL playoffs)

edit: since you guys liked the tags so much;

Eddie hugging Buck:

Literally forces Buck to smush his head into the crook of Eddie's neck. Okay alright, I'm fine.
