rushing to be together and then absolutely trying everything possible to slow time to stay together

I know everyone hates Hayden except for me, but Hayden referring to Shane as the twins' "older brother" instead of uncle is so fucking funny.

Like yeah I am a surrogate child to my married friends who have a car. They drive me places, get groceries for me, take me to doctor's appointments, etc. When they start having kids, I will say I was practice!

I guess this is my life now- changing jersey colors, trimming hair, and removing earrings/facial hair 😂 No complaints! No Ai!

while I 1000% support crackfic writers who write about Ilya spilling about their sex life, in reality I think that shit would be locked DOWN.

like, I think the only details the internet would get would be Ilya liking posts about Shane being a god in bed, into freak sex, that things get real wild after big hockey victories and that the rivalry was foreplay, etc

only stuff that’s funny and wild, but ultimately contains exactly zero details of their actual sex.

like yes, for all the sexy possessive reasons, and all of the privacy and ‘I share the internet with my in-laws’ reasons’, but also because of how Shane would be treated if it was actually known that he was a bottom.

It’s not super explored in canon, but cmon… Shane is a half Japanese gay man in hockey. Those are both two very loaded identities for an incredibly bigoted sport, and they come with a lot of really vicious intersectional ammo.

Shane would already hear so much about how Asian men are submissive and all of the other bullshit I refuse to write out, imagine how much more brutal it would be if there was actual confirmation that the stereotypes are on some level, accurate?

in that same way that homophobia would have hit so much harder for Shane after he was outed and knew that the other player MEANT it, all of that would be even more hurtful and degrading.

And so yeah, I don’t think either Ilya or Shane would EVER reference what positions or anything they prefer in bed anywhere near the public, because the public fucking sucks :((

oh training a pet is hard? well Shane Hollander domesticated his little bisexual freak without even trying, so maybe you’re just not doing it right babe

shane is just definition polite young man. rose complains about her feet hurting so he picks her up and carries her. no biggie. he opens svetlana's car door. he writes 'thank you' on the bill at restaurants. he buys his mom AND his dad flowers. he always mowed his elderly neighbor's lawn growing up. he offers his condolences to his opponents if he catches wind of a family member passing. he won't let anyone pay him back if he buys them something. in fact, he is the first person the ottawa rookies go to if they want something because he will just roll his eyes and hand them his card. if someone is cold, he will give them his jacket. he's just a good little canadian boy who had the importance of chivalry taught to him early
