    Summary

    After I badgered my brother into reading 'Role Model' (he loved it, naturally), he told me how grateful he was to have a family like Harris. Even though I love 'The Long Game', I often find myself thinking about what could've happened if Shane had been able to ease into his coming out. Which is where I got this idea.

    What if Rose convinces Shane to come to out to his team in the days after his confession to her? It probably doesn't go well. At least not at first.
    After the horrors of the club in Montreal, before the 2017 All-Star game, Shane and Rose make a plan for Shane to come out to his team and his loved ones. Things do not go to plan. But then Shane's friends and family, and eventually Ilya Rozanov, come together to make sure Shane has full control of how and when he comes out. Some hurt and yearning. Some stupidity. But ultimately a HEA.

    Note that some AU's of Shane's coming out have graphic homophobic language. This fic does not. It's implied. There's absolutely some homophobia. But I see no need to use hurtful language to communicate an experience too many have had.

    Mix of TV and book canon!

    Spelling is mix of UK/US, soz. I don't use genAI; em dashes are all MINE!

    No limits, until him by Anonymous

    Summary

    “Eyes on me.” There is a sharp satisfaction as those eyes lift immediately to meet his again. “I need your name.”

    The man’s lashes flutter. “Shane, sir.”

    Ilya nods and lets his hand move through Shane’s hair. It is soft, and Shane leans into the touch, eyes closing briefly as if the contact alone is enough to ground him. The response is so natural that it gives Ilya pause.

    “Tell me about your limits.” Ilya doubts he is going to be close to any limits tonight, as Shane looks like he already had a pretty rough night. But he still needs to ask, good hygiene. 

    A small smile appears on Shane’s face, he looks at Ilya deeply, eyes not wandering away as he speaks, “There are no limit, sir.” He looks at the disbelief appearing on Ilya’s face and offers, “I’m the house slave.”

     

    Or, Ilya didn’t come for attachment, but Shane, bruised, obedient, and unraveling, becomes the one thing he can’t leave broken.

    Summary

    In an AU where Shane joins the Montreal Metros the same year he's drafted, Ilya stays in Russia and Shane is pretty pissed off about it. He's released to go to the 2010 World Junior Championships in Helsinki, Finland because he wants his rematch, damn it, and because he wants to try to convince his rival to get to the MLH as soon as possible and make things interesting.

    When Shane discovers Ilya may not have stayed in Russia of his own free will, he puts together a crack team of idiot teenagers international hockey players to achieve one goal: get Ilya Rozanov to Boston.
