this is real though, right?
They move in together full time and Ilya notices that Anya acts differently with Shane than she does with him, more quiet and less playful, and he worries that means she doesn’t like Shane or is jealous, so he hires a dog trainer to come over and see if there’s anything they need to do to help
After a while of talking about how Anya acts the trainer says there’s nothing to worry about, Anya likes Shane just fine, it’s just that she sees him as the boss and is acting accordingly
And Ilya is like. But. I’m the one who adopted her? And raised her before Shane got here?? And the trainer is just like yeah well she sees you more like an equal. And Ilya is like WAIT she thinks Shane is in charge of both of us?? And the trainer is just like well do you interact in a way that would make her think that?
Ilya’s life flashes before his eyes as he thinks of all the times Shane has come over with a snack for Ilya and a treat for Anya, or all the times Shane has announced they’re all going for an after dinner walk, or pets Ilya’s hair and tells him he did a good job at practice, or the fact that he uses the same warning tone with Anya when she misbehaves as he does with Ilya when he’s causing problems on purpose
Shane comes home to Ilya with his face in his hands going oh god I’m not Anya’s dad I’m her brother and she thinks we’re both your pets. And Shane just goes. What.
since there is like no wulfxthrit content, i shall make my own in the form of some headcanons:
wulf is definitely taller than thrit, like i just know wulf is one of the big boys
thrit has a more slender build as he focuses his training mostly on shooting arrows while wulf prefers sword fighting
they do hand to hand combat for fun and it turns wulf on when thrit beats him
thrit is definitely a menace; like i imagine him being a little shit who likes to play pranks and laughs at wulfs two left feet (as we saw in the epilogue)
they would somehow find a way for thrit to meet esbar and tuva and tuva would love thrit but esbar would full on adore him as if he were her own son — the power dynamic that they would have!!
thrit teaches siyu how to shoot an inyscan bow and they bond and become super close and bully wulf for his horrible skill of picking up on a crush
thrit fell first but wulf fell harder
thrit knows how to braid hrothi braids and since wulf has long hair thrit always braids it for him
wulf would sometimes still doubt himself due to karlstens bullying but thrit would always be there to catch him and wipe away his tears
sometimes they both mourn their lost friends and when these times come they cannot be separated at all; they are always attached at the hip anyways but during hard times their codependency can become insufferable
wulf sometimes gets frustrated that he wasted so much time — thrit smacks his head when he starts with that shit
they both leave little gifts for baby sabran sometimes
they play a lot of chess and wulf never wins
when wulf gets hurt in battle, thrit jumps in front of him to shield him from whatever else could come at him
when thrit gets hurt in battle, wulf becomes so furious that he kills everyone in a 10 meter radius around him
they have snowball fights in hroth (and always end up kissing in the snow)
they tour the world and study languages (wulf still wants to get better at this mothers language)
when thrit is tired he makes wulf carry him on his back
wulf is ticklish and thrit uses this for his advantage whenever he can
wulf loves to get up early; thrit hates it
they sometimes go fishing for entire days and just enjoy the peace and quiet of nature (wulf loves seeing thrit bare chested in the open water with a spear in his hand)
they race with their horses
they’re both so good with children and maybe sometimes they both dream in the quiet moments of actually having a family together
wulf randomly adopts three stray dogs (they name them regny, sauma and bardt)
thrit has to stand on his tippy toes to kiss wulf; wulf gets giddy when he realizes it for the first time
they wear matching necklaces at some point
einlenk once told wulf he should just propose to thrit (wulf didn’t even know einlenk knew they were together)
thrit and glorian get along really well: he is sent to her once to help with something and they chat and become pen pals
wulf tells thrit about the priory and the mother at some point after they have been together for years: he expects that he has to fight for thrit to understand the meaning behind it, but thrit just nods along and then goes “i always thought it made no sense that a beast should be bound by a bloodline of queens from one person who has defeated him, but when i questioned it as a child they said that it would be treason to even just think that“ wulf would be too stunned to respond and then thrit would add “also no man could do that, it had to have been a woman“ and wulf just kisses the hell out of him
they go shopping for fresh apples on the market together
mara teaches thrit how to bake bread (they love each other so much that wulf finds it concerning)
roland says thrit is too good for wulf; thrit argues against it but wulf secretly agrees
wulfs fathers cry when they see that wulf has found someone he feels safe with
ugh just thrit and wulf man THE POTENTIAL of their love
baby centaur!
ilya's words mean something like "my heart is so full"
same picture years later
i decided to use some of ilya's book design in the youngest baby, so she's very very tall, has brown hair, and she plays hockey too:) (all of them are tall like their dads!)
stay-at-home dad ilya 🙇 (and shane at work)
shane would see their kids creepy drawings and be like wow, great job bud. you're so creative. meanwhile ilya is frantically googling is my child possessed and calling sveta asking her if the time they got 'cursed' by an old witch as kids was real because he thinks it skipped him and went to his kid and why doesn't shane see it
mental health awareness is important. 💚
They’re important. 💚

goodmorning this is your assigned shane of the day
ilya: oh-oh baby! where the hell is my husband?💃🎶

ilya: what is taking him so long😭🎶
shane: i’m literally just doing the dishes
ilya: to find me-e-e 🎶
shane: get in here rozanov! you can sing and dry the plates at the same time
ilya, dancing next to shane as he wipes the plates clean: oh-oh baby!

MISSING THEM
a sound is still a sound around no one
Shane lifts one eyelid again to look at Rozanov. His eyes are red-rimmed. Like he’s been crying. “Why…why aren’t you in Boston?” Rozanov’s brow furrows. “Why would I be in Boston?” “You, you’re captain. Raiders. Boston.” The room is silent except for the beeping of monitors.
In 2023, Shane takes a bad hit on the ice. When he wakes up, the last thing he remembers is a tuna melt.
There’s a lot to get used to.
aka: the amnesia fic. 43.2k, complete at 9/9 chapters. rated E. read on ao3 here.
