Summary
“I mean, you— you say I’m perfect. That it’s, that everything we do together is… is perfect.”
“Yes, perfect,” Ilya says adamantly.
“Okay. But. I mean. I like feedback, you know. If there are things you haven’t said because you don’t want to hurt my feelings, you could say. If there’s any judgement of my technique, like, that you’ve been doing silently in your head.”
“I never judge you silently,” Ilya says. He pulls back a bit, twisting his neck so he can look Shane in the eye, frowning. “I judge you loudly. Is no fun if I don’t see your reaction.”
“Ha, ha.”
“Shane,” Ilya says. “Is this real worry you are having? I must know. You think I have… criticism of you, of sex with you? You think it is not perfect for me?”
---
Shane and Ilya navigate their sexual relationship, now that they're finally a couple.

Summary
In another life — or maybe the next one, or maybe the one before — Ilya Rozanov learns that some roads only lead to one place. No matter how you take them, the wolves are always waiting at the end.
Maybe that's why, in December 2008, Ilya wakes up with the distinct, inexplicable sense, that he has already lived this life before.
Some things, it turns out, are inevitable. The question is whether he is.

Summary
Ilya Rozanov is in love, closeted, catastrophically lonely, and apparently incapable of referring to Shane Hollander in present tense.
The Centaurs come to a- given the circumstances- reasonable conclusion.
Or:
Five times the Centaurs thought Ilya Rozanov was mourning his dead wife, and the one time they discovered his wife was actually Shane Hollander.
Shane, for the record, is alive and really confused.Series

Summary
“I need your help.”
Ilya peers up again and raises an eyebrow. He pauses the video he was watching. “With?”
Shane fidgets. “I, uh… I can’t– I mean, I can but I’m not very good– Fuck, listen, just– Ineedyoutohelpmewithsex.”
A pause. A long pause. Ilya blinks a couple of times, mouth twitching at the corners. Then,
“You need me to teach you how to fuck your girl, Hollander?”
Shane needs help satisfying his girlfriend, Jessica. He turns to his roommate, Ilya, for help.

Summary
"I'm saying," Hanson explained with exaggerated slowness, "that you must be having some crazy sex to make up for all the shit he's got going on."
"What shit?" Ilya asked, confused.
"Oh, you know." More clinking glass. "He's, well, he's pretty boring."
If Shane hadn't been a little tipsy himself, he wouldn't have reacted at all. As it was, he flinched.
Hanson was still talking, pensive now. "Allergic to fun, I guess. He doesn't drink, doesn't party…" He snorted. "He does yoga, for fuck's sake."
"Yes, he does," Ilya said, unperturbed. "He's very flexible."Or: Shane overhears Ilya getting the "but why did you pick him?" talk.
