    Summary

    He struggled to walk through the crowd, feeling lost, his head dizzy and chaotic at the same time, before a large hand squeezed around his wrist and dragged him along a barely lit corridor. Ilya's shoulders were stiff while guiding him between the bodies, his head turning just enough to peek a teasing glance over his shoulder every so often and his fingers digging into Shane’s skin to the point of making him dizzy and in desperately need to feel them against his-

    Or:

    Shane went into a club knowing Ilya would be there.

    Summary

    Shane wanted Ilya to apologise. I'm sorry Shane, I was an asshole. I ghosted you because—whatever bullshit of an excuse he could find. He would have accepted it.
    But Ilya, of course, didn't. 
    "Suck my dick." He said instead. Shane wanted to cry, and maybe also kiss him.
    "You're unbelievable, you suck my dick." 
    Ilya told him to ask nicely. And Shane did.
    Ilya, of course, didn't get on his knees.

    Summary

    June 2010

    Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov hook up for the first time and Shane needs to process his feelings.

    As it pertained to his sexuality, he’d crossed the Rubicon. And there was no going back. The man-on-man sex bell had been rung. But could someone tell by looking at him? Was there something different about his eyes or his face… or maybe his lips?

    Shane brought his right index finger up and traced his lower lip. Immediately he could vividly imagine the feeling of Ilya’s soft, full lips on his, pressing and pushing; his tongue seeking entrance and Shane granting it.

    Shane closed his eyes and sighed as he relived the way Ilya had (gently) taken his face in his hand to hold him steady as he initiated their first kiss.

    Summary

    Anyone else left with a gaping hole in their heart after Wolfbird Ch. 13/14? While we await Opal’s return, this is my outlet to assuage mine.

    This is an alternate universe—a divergent branch that picks up after Ch. 14 and finishes the story. Told entirely through text messages and mixed media.

    Both men continue to fight silent battles: Ilya, trapped in survival mode. Shane, drowning under perfectionism & identity crisis. Two worlds tethered by one connection. Can Hollanov find each other in this life?

    Of course, directly inspired by Opal’s incredible Wolfbird <3

    Summary

    When the Pikes leave for a week, Shane and Ilya end up in charge of Arthur and Amber. It should be simple. It is not.

    There are sacred Hot Wheels being gently destroyed, cinnamon rolls that somehow become a full kitchen event, a car that now has emotional support stickers, and one very quiet kid who deserves the world (and gets two masks instead).

    Featuring Ilya being a menace in the group chat, Shane trying to maintain order, and both of them realizing this might be their favorite kind of chaos.
