Summary
Sid has done some pretty foolish things in his life, and he knows that trying to keep Geno, trying to keep himself, from having this will result among the worst of them. He feels incredibly lucky that he has people in his life, that he has Mario and his mother and Colby, to be there to help him when he’s too far in his own head to see the error of his ways.

Summary
“I’ll be quick. It’ll barely hurt Ilya."
The gun trembled in his brother’s hand as they kept staring at each other, the words almost as pleading as Ilya’s own. If his eyes hadn’t started to sting, he might have seen his brother’s well up as well. Instead, that childish, naive little part of his heart spoke the next words out of his mouth.
"We are family Alexei. We always have been."
OR: My take on what if Ilya was in Russia when the video leaked. (Updated summary)

Summary
Ilya Rozanov's life takes an unexpected turn when a deadly plane crash in 2021 takes his life, right after a fight with his long-time partner, Shane Hollander. Though instead of the afterlife, Ilya is sent back to December 2008, just before his NHL career began, on the very day that he first met Shane. He finds himself in a familiar world, with knowledge of both the future and knowledge of the man he loves and the friends he holds dear.
As Ilya navigates this new reality, he rebuilds his relationship with Shane, who is still finding his path in both hockey and his identity as a gay man. With their rivalry blossoming into a different experience than the one Ilya experienced the first time around, the two face challenges around acceptance, family pressures, and the struggles of being openly gay and lovers in the sports world. Throughout their journey, Ilya contemplates his first life, cherishes the present, and strives to alter the course of their futures (and the futures of their friends) for the better.
Or, Ilya Rozanov discovers first hand what the butterfly effect is, and how it can drastically alter the future.

Bookmarker's Notes
"If it ever happens, if you ever feel yourself going somewhere I can't follow, you call me. From a payphone at two in the morning, or a supply closet, or the bathroom floor. I want you to inconvenience me for the rest of my life, Ilya. Even with the hardest parts. Especially with those."
