6 Degrees of Separation by LunaAtTheZoo
Fandoms: Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Heated Rivalry (TV)

Summary
Someone somewhere said any two people on earth can be linked with only 6 degrees of separation. Shane played this game in his head sometimes. He would make up maps of these links, just for the exercise of it. What he didn't do was map his connection to Ilya Rozanov, who had yet to walk into his life and crash down all 6 degrees of separation in one reckless fell swoop. Shane didn't know it, but he was already 6 degrees away from Ilya Rozanov. Because Shane was driving to Montreal, and Montreal was where a modeling agency he didn't know the name of was based. And that modeling agency recently put an ad out for a new campaign. That ad was seen by a girl named Svetlana who had curly hair and a quick, smart tongue. And that girl had called her best friend, Ilya Rozanov, and said, “There's work for you in Montreal, if you're good enough.” And Ilya Rozanov had been good enough, and was finally, finally getting out of Moscow after 19 miserable years. And those 6 degrees of separation would soon be just 1, because Ilya Rozanov & Shane Hollander would be existing in the same city without either knowing the other one existed.

Summary
Hi Ilya,
My name is Shane! I don’t speak Russian, I hope that’s okay. I’m also 25 years old and I love hockey too! So we have some things in common.
I’ve never written an inmate before. I don’t really know why I’m doing this. I guess I’m lonely. I’m not very good at making friends or dating. I think maybe I can be a bit awkward in person, but I’m good at writing. So I hope that’s okay.
or Shane Hollander finds Ilya Rozanov on WriteAPrisoner.com and sends him an email.

Summary
Cass is the perfect social media manager for the Raiders. Funny, outgoing, and unafraid to whip the guys into shape. Ilya took to her quickly - which is why he's especially concerned when she starts pulling away from everyone. When she asks for his help, he isn't sure what to expect, but he knows he needs to help.
or
Ilya suspects the team social media manager is being abused. When she asks for help, he and Cliff do everything they can.
Title is from Behind the Wall by Tracy Chapman, an absolutely haunting song about domestic violence from the perspective of a neighbor.
(not beta read because I'm too embarrassed to make people from my life read this)
