Summary
Following the move to Ottawa, Ilya is struggling to keep his head above water. The Centaurs seem incapable of winning, his house is still half-unpacked at best, and Shane is two hours away in Montreal. After months of struggling alone, Ilya unexpectedly shows up at the Hollanders’ house one night, terrified of his own thoughts.
In the months that follow, Ilya hits low after low, struggling with his newly-diagnosed depression. David and Yuna do their best to be there for him while distance is still keeping Shane and Ilya apart.

Summary
Shane looked at Ilya carefully. At the curled-up posture, at eyes that were too shiny to hide the fact he’d been crying. Bare toes in the damp grass, jaw clenched like he couldn’t relax even with the nicotine.
“Do you want to talk about it?” he asked, softly.

“You left your phone,” Shane said, pointing at the device where Ilya had left it. It was still sitting on the table, like an innocent witness to the proceedings.
“Sorry?” Ilya said, a crease deepening between his eyes as he stared at Shane in bewilderment. “Shane, I do not understand.”
“You’ve barely made it out of bed the last few days. I come home and you’re gone and your phone is here. What was I supposed to think?!”
Ilya stared at him, and then his eyes narrowed. Hardened into something that promised a summer storm.

Summary
There was a bruise darkening under Rozanov’s right eye.
Shane reached across and ran a finger over the puffy swell of it, gentle and careful, pulling away immediately when Rozanov winced.
“I would say sorry you got punched, but you were being an asshole out there.”
Ilya pulled his face out of reach of Shane’s searching fingers and shrugged. Like he got punched all the time and it was no big deal.
They were collapsed across each other on the bed, half-under the covers, half-exposed to the slightly too stuffy room. Rozanov’s sweat-damp curls were hanging in messy disarray across his forehead, lips still slightly swollen and red. He looked best like this, Shane decided vaguely, watching the minute twitch of Rozanov’s jaw, the long line of his throat. Bruised up and sweaty, limbs loose and sprawled out on the bed like it belonged to him.
“I got a punch in also,” Rozanov mused, blinking up at the popcorn ceiling. “So is fine.”

Summary
(16. Morning, 742 words) TW: depression
--Mornings are sometimes particularly hard for Ilya. He’s never explained why to Shane, but the longer they’re together, the more Shane sees without asking.
He sees the way Ilya sometimes lies there, unmoving, staring at the ceiling long before the alarm goes off. He sees the distance in his gaze. The longing. The slight trembling in his hands. He sees the way Ilya will turn away from him so he doesn’t notice the sheen to his eyes, that he’s starting to cry. That his chest is heavy and that he’s carrying a weight that’s not his to bear. That Ilya doesn’t know how to fix it; that he thinks something is wrong with him.
Shane sees every crack in his armor and loves him all the same.

Summary
Ilya Grigorievich Rozanov isn't much of a reader. But his first spring in Ottawa, watching playoffs happen to other people, he finds he has time on his hands.
It's probably his luck, that the first book he picks up might be about him.
