    Summary

    “Hollander?!” Rozanov exclaims, carefully dropping him back down.

    Shane doubles over, gasping and wheezing, hands clutching his ribs for dear life.

    “You’re fucking hurt,” Rozanov realizes, wide-eyed.

    Summary

    Subject: Request to Inform Ilya Rozanov of a Family Death

    Mr. Drover,

    My name is Natalya Listunova. I am the sister of Oksana Rozanova, who was married to Andrei Rozanov, Ilya Rozanov's brother.

    Andrei died unexpectedly this week. I am reaching out because Ilya has been estranged from the family, and I believe he should be informed of his brother's death personally rather than through the media or other third parties.

    There is also a pressing legal matter involving Andrei and Oksana's ten-year-old daughter, Aliya. My sister passed away several months ago, and with both parents now deceased, Aliya is currently in state care in Russia. As her aunt and uncle, Ilya and I have equal legal standing. I am in the process of petitioning for custody and to bring Aliya to Canada, where I have lived for several years; however, this requires Ilya's acknowledgement and a signed affidavit declining custody.

    Thank you for your time and discretion.

    Respectfully,
    Natalya Listunova

    Summary

    Shane doesn’t realize he’s braced for silent eyes until he feels the absence of it — the weight of teammates immediately finding him and going quiet, waiting for him to fuck up, to say the wrong thing, to exist wrong. He expects the chatter of a room to drop when he enters and its disconcerting to find it doesn't yet in Ottawa.

    He stands at the entrance a beat too long.

    --

    It’s the start of Shane Hollander’s first season in Ottawa and he should be settled. The Centaurs are friendly, the room is easy, and Ilya is finally close enough to touch. But, as Shane is intimately aware of, old habits learned the hard way will linger.

    Summary

    Ilya chuckles. “You don’t know why the team might be scared of you? You cannot think of any reason?”

    “Scared? Of me?” Shane says.

    “Yes. They adore you. But they are terrified.”

    “But – but why? What did I do?”

    Ilya pretends to think. “Hmm. What did you do? Maybe it was the first Stanley Cup. Or the second. Or the third. Or your MVP wins. Or every single fucking game you have ever played in your life. You are Shane fucking Hollander. Did you forget?”

    ---

    Or, five times Shane scares the Centaurs, and one time he (accidentally) terrifies them.

    Summary

    [“Some are saying Rozanov was targeting you specifically, trying to disrupt you as a key playmaker,” another journalist jumps in, glancing down at his notebook. “He had you up against the boards a lot, and registered five hits compared to his season average of two point five per game. Some are saying the refs missed some calls there. How did you handle that physicality and keep focusing on playmaking?”

    “Well,” Shane manages to say as his entire body flushes, as he thinks about how just two days ago he handled— “Rozanov is a great player, and I think the scoreboard speaks for itself at the end of the day.”]

    OR,

    Montreal and Boston play each other back-to-back, and things get physical.
