    Summary

    "You signed with the LA Kings?" she demanded. "What were you thinking? You know the plan. We'd go to the draft, get first pick, and go to Montreal."

    "What are you even talking about?" Shane shot back. "If I got first pick, I'd go to Boston, not Montreal. And I don't even want to go to Montreal."

    "Why?" Mom asked immediately. "They're one of the best teams in the league. One of the Original Six."

    Something inside him snapped, and before he even realized it, he switched to Japanese.

    "I don't know," he said, his voice tight. "Maybe because they're full of racists and homophobes. Do you even understand what I'm saying? Or have you become so white you forgot your own language?"

    Summary

    Remember when Hayden Pike punches Ilya after Shane said not to, right before the announcement of the Irina Foundation? Remember that that was the second time Hayden laid his hands on Ilya in the first month of knowing him?

    Or, Shane gets rightfully fed up after the first month of Hayden's behavior towards Ilya. Punching Ilya was the final straw, so he tells Hayden to pretend he never found out. It sets off a chain of events landing him, happily, in Ottawa a year earlier and with a better support system for both him and Ilya.

    Summary

    The Metros were fine with hiring for diversity but they don’t want him to be the highest paid player on their team. This leads to Shane to think the Metros aren’t where he will be his entire career.

    Svetlana knows Ilya, him deciding to come to the NHL, means he wants out of Russia even if it isn’t right away and forces him to apply for a green card.

    Summary

    “—okay, that’s unusual,” the first commentator’s voice is saying over the footage. “Hm. Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that, thanks to some last-minute additions to the broadcast, we’ll be able to get an audio feed straight from the arena today!” 

    Ilya frowns. Who the fuck was stupid enough to get mic’d for this fucking game? Some idiot rookie from Toronto, probably. They really don’t teach kids how to handle anything these days. 

    “That’s right!” The second announcer pipes up with an annoyingly fake cheery voice. Ilya immediately wants to send a puck straight into his windpipe. “We just got confirmation that Captain Shane Hollander himself will be wearing a microphone during tonight’s game.” 

    Ilya sits up and spins to face the TV screen fast enough to give a lesser man whiplash.

    Shane doesn’t get injured when Ilya comes back from Russia in 2017, so Ilya follows through on his plan to end things between them. A year later, despite being miserable, he still believes he did the right thing for both of them.
    Except the Voyageurs have been acting weird around Hollander lately. And wait, what do you mean he’s mic’d for this game?

    Summary

    Taylor Kelly knew she was probably a shitty person. But most people were shitty people, so she wasn't the only one. Whatever. She had the dirt, and she was often petty, so she could have easily published the book she wrote about the 118 and Buck's life as a firefighter. But that wasn't what she wanted to be known for. She wanted people to be obsessed with her and her writing, her story telling, not just her ability to manipulate and present information in alarming ways. She still works on stories, on getting air time, but she's a little out of her depth. She doesn't exactly know how to blend in seamlessly everywhere she wants to go to get the bigger stories. Except she knows someone who can and has blended in seamlessly nearly everywhere they went. He wasn't petty, either. He always left that to her or Eddie Diaz. It's fine. It is. Because Buck would honestly just show up to see what the hell she was up to.

    She just wasn't exactly prepared for him to look so good and be the friend she had been needing. In all honesty, though, Buck was a fantastic wingman.
