Coming this fall to ABC… MLH star Shane Hollander is The Bachelor!

Bachelor Nation, we have one question: will you accept this rose?

"Nice work today, Hollander," Ilya says. Another bright nugget of praise, the second day in a row he’s handed one to Shane. Shane wants to grab at it. "What you said to Kelsea was very useful. All those things about the responsibilities of team captain’s wife. LA will like that."  Shane fights a smile. "You told me to say that, asshole."  Ilya smiles easily, not fighting anything, and extends his arms, palms up, as if he's offering something else to Shane. "Of course, that is why it was so good." He pauses, then asks, "Tell me, do you like this?"  It's familiar for Shane to trip during a conversation; to fall behind other people without realizing he has and stumble when he tries to catch up. It hasn't happened as much with Ilya, so he notices it now: he has no idea what Ilya is talking about.  "What? Do I like what?"   Ilya's teeth are bright, his smile is not quite big enough for his big mouth. "When I shove my hand up your ass like a puppet and make you talk."

It's a crime to this day that Penguin and Shachi never made an appearance in film RED. I feel like they'd be huge stans of Uta.

In my discord server I was talking about the urge to make a dnb Au with Dream being in love with Techno but it's not known if Techno is also in love with Dream. And it ends with both of them marrying other people but still writing letters and the last thing in the fanfiction is a letter Techno writes to Dream that starts with 'My dearest, Dream' only to see if people can figure it out or not Like Dream had just received a new letter, another one of Technoblade. It was probably to remind him of their meeting in the summer where they spoke about the birth of Techno's first born. Just as Dream always did he sat down at his desk, opening the letter with a tremble he was already used to. And just as he started reading his eyes widened, the tremble came back and the letter fell to the ground. Shocked from just the first line, Dream couldn't stop himself from reading it in front of his eyes over and over again. 'My dearest, Dream....' Fin OR Dream never knew about the changed meaning and never found out about the feelings Techno had for him

"I don't think it was him," he said, keeping his voice just above a whisper. "It didn't  look like him." The words hung heavily in the air waiting to sink in. It didn't make sense and when the confused expression on Kirishima's face deepened, Kaminari just shook his head as though he didn't know how to explain what he saw. "That stuff he has does some weird shit and I think… I think he was fighting it?"

"Fighting…?" Kaminari raised his shoulders in a shrug.

"I don't know, man. I don't know, but when he looked at me, he wasn't in there."

shane hollander vs the youtube algorithm

hollanov, canon-compliant, situationship era

Maybe, when Rozanov texts him at night, it means he's home looking at his phone like Shane is and not fucking other people at all. Maybe Rozanov, too, sometimes rams against the boundaries of what they’re doing and finds them blurred, before he reins himself back in and puts his head on right.

The other half of Shane's brain thinks: he never texts you during the day because he never fucking thinks about you at all.

shane hollander is.... the bachelor 🌹

hollanov, AU (chapter 2/6)

Rozanov says, "Then what is the problem? Tomorrow you give Tiffani a kiss, it will be very nice for her. Will be nice for you, too. Yes?" 

Shane glares at him, and Rozanov's marble jaw melts into a smile. When he smiles like this, he looks like a prowling cat. Hunger lurks so obviously behind his teeth. Shane can see it. 

"Hm," Rozanov hums, when Shane stays quiet. "Maybe not nice for you. But Hollander, it will be nice for me."

Ilya tests the limits of domestic bliss.

hollanov, canon-compliant, post-cottage, sexting, ilya is not doing so well

He is nervous, for the first time, for Shane to see his home. Nervous that he will see it and then see the thing that is wrong with Ilya inside it.

None of this, of course, is enough to make Ilya change the only plan he has ever been good at making, the only plan he has consistently kept for the past ten years of his life: fuck Shane after playing a hockey game against him. Nothing would prevent Ilya from executing this plan. Ilya would crawl across burning glass for this; he would do so much worse.

Cap loves All-Stars. We all know why.

Shane ran through the acceptable things he could say. Yeah of course I like All-Stars. Because it’s hockey. Because it’s the best of the league. Which by the way doesn’t include you, Smith, you slow motherfucker.
