    Summary

    Shane Hollander is the most sought-after goalie on the market in the 2015 offseason. The Bears are thrilled when they get the steal of the decade by signing him out from under Montreal. It’s even cooler that their captain is so close with Hollander. The two are like, best friends or platonic soulmates or something.

    Alternatively: 5 times the Boston Bears should’ve guessed that Hollander and Rozanov were totally gay for each other + 1 time when everyone knew (Except Carmy).

    Summary

    There’s a single tear slowly rolling down the smooth face. That alone is fucking impossible, but it’s not all.

    The tear doesn’t leave a wet trail on the white cheek but instead reveals something living.

    Human skin, soft and warm, almost golden, kissed by the ancient Mediterranean sun.

    Shane’s hands rise to cover his mouth as his mind tries to understand what he is seeing, trying to find the correct words. But in the end he just says the words that come first.

    “Holy shit,” he croaks. “You are really there. You are really there.”

    Yes, the voice says. Nothing else, but that’s enough.

    OR: Ilya goes against his father's wishes, and his revenge is unimaginable. But Ilya knows the one who he's meant to be with is somewhere out in the world, looking for him.

    He just has to believe and wait, even if it takes thousands of years

    Summary

    “And why is a Russian prince inviting me to his matchmaking party? Do they need gentry chaperones or something?”

    “No, no, and it’s not a party, it’s a whole series of affairs, it’s…Shane, you’re invited as a candidate. A marriage candidate.”

    Shane pulls the phone away to make sure the line’s still connected and he hasn’t accidentally started watching Downton Abbey or something.

     

    Prince Ilya Grigoryevich Rozanov meets Shane Hollander, Duke of Montreal.

    Summary

    Following the internet success of Shane and Ilya's presentation at the NHL Awards, ESPN decided to contract with them to do a whole series. It goes far better than anyone could have dreamed.

    -or-

    “When you think about it,” Jackie said, when Shane had dinner with her and Hayden a few days later, “hockey’s basically already reality tv.”

    Summary

    Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.

    So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.
