    Summary

    Scent patches were mandatory for anyone participating in World Junior's, but a lot of the Russian guys Shane saw in the hotel or around the rink had them loosely attached to their necks or not quite centered over their scent gland. Shane had been on his way to his parents' car when the wind shifted, and he smelled that Rozanov, leaning against the wall and not-at-all-surreptitiously fishing a carton of cigarettes out of his pocket, must have been one of them.

    Omegaverse with dfully realised world-building that meshes with excellent characterisation. Excellent use of the soulmate trope. Unputdownable.

    Summary

    “It just feels like such a nothing story," Shane says. "But my mom’s so fucking... worked up about it.” 

    Ilya watches him. “I think,” he says carefully, “that your mom is also the parent of a teenage boy who played on that hockey team. And not just the manager of a person who is being asked for comment on a bad story. Yes?”  

    ...

    (Shane was fifteen years old when he moved to Sarnia.)

    Extremely painful to read but extremely good fic about hockey culture. Inspired by We Breed Lions. Amazing characterisation.

    Summary

    I am in hell, Ilya thinks. He's awkwardly hard in his cup and layers of gear. He can't focus. How the fuck is Hollander functioning like this? Is he actually so gifted at hockey that he can play at this level and still have space to let the sex demon in his brain run rampant? Is this what he's like all the time? (Now with bonus ch 2!)

    Crack treated seriously. Ilya can suddenly hear Shane's thoughts. Hot and so lovely.

    Summary

    Yuna does not say, I’m sorry, I miss my mom, I can’t keep anything alive.

    There are parts of her she never wants Shane to see. She never wants Shane to know about the car she crashed at twenty, the herbs that died because she overwatered them, the miscarriages, or that she wanted to play on a hockey team very badly until she was thirteen. Only now, when her son is seventeen and her parents are long gone, does she understand her father had simply lied to her about the things he never could have forgotten.

    Ilya wakes with no memory after an eventful night. Or maybe it wasn’t eventful. He doesn’t remember, that’s the problem.
