Summary
He isn’t sure why it took Shane so long to notice. Maybe it was the dim lighting of the hotel rooms, the urgency of one more time before one of them would inevitably get dressed and leave again. Maybe he had seen and not said anything before now, knowing Ilya’s unwillingness to rip his own heart out of his chest and lay it on the table. Maybe he wasn’t prepared for Ilya to be even more broken and fucked up than he already was.
Maybe, if he knew why, he wouldn’t want Ilya at all.
~~~~~
Shane notices childhood scars on Ilya's shoulder that never fully healed, and Ilya is not okay.

Summary

Or
Five times Linus tried to be a good father, and one time he finally got it right.

just you and me on our snow day by tenaciousturtle

Summary
“We just got a text about the weather…” Shane’s eyes skimmed the screen. “Shit, practice is cancelled. I haven’t had a snow day like this since I was a kid!”
As a child, Shane had had a love-hate relationship of sorts with snow days. The disruption of his routine could have sent him spiraling, but it meant more time to play hockey and hang out with his parents, so it worked out alright in the end. His father would make banana pancakes for breakfast, his mother would set up a rink for him to play on in their backyard pond, and the day would be devoted to being out on the ice.
Ilya blinked at Shane, slowly putting down his Switch and sitting up. “What the fuck is snow day? It is winter, it snows every day.”
❆ ❆ ❆ ❆ ❆
When practice gets called off in the face of a blizzard and hazardous weather, Shane treats Ilya to his first Canadian snow day.

Summary
At the 2022 MHL Awards, Scott Hunter does not sit with his teammates.
Neither do Ilya Rozanov, Shane Hollander and Troy Barrett.
It doesn’t take a doctorate to understand what they have in common at this stupid central table.
(Or where dealing with the League’s endless bigotry is a never ending full-time job)
