    Summary

    All Shane wanted to do was to play hockey.
    He knew he was pretty much the best at it.

    What he didn't know, being the best was not enough.

    Being a gay Asian-Canadian hockey player didn't help anything at all.

    Nor did the fact that he got drafted to Ottawa, the team where Ilya Rozanov was already the biggest star.

    Or,
    An alternate universe where Shane is openly out as gay. Ilya is still closeted bisexual. And they both play for the same team- ie, Ottawa Centaurs.

    Summary

    Boston.

    Shane just got traded to fucking Boston. To where Ilya was. With no apparent fucking reason in the middle of the season. He just won them two cups, why was this happening?

    Shane gets traded in the middle of the 2016/2017 season, just before the All-Stars. The Tuna Meltdown never happens and Shane and Ilya amicably decide to stop seeing each other but remain ‘friends’. Both are very ‘happy’ with this decision until Hollander is traded to Boston. Now they must work with each other on the same team while Shane wonders what the hell happened in Montreal to get him traded in the first place. The Boston Raiders learn that Shane Hollander is not a chicken, or a virgin (lol) like everyone believes. And the Metros learn just how important Shane was in winning those cups.

    And Cliff Marleau is just trying to figure out why Ilya’s messages to Jane stopped.

    Summary

    When Shane Hollander’s grandmother dies, he deals with his grief by fufilling a promise he made her when she was still healthy. In his journey, the teenager finds himself enrolled in Moscow’s private school system under a shiny hockey scholarship.

    On the Russian ice, he meets a boy with wet blue eyes and a mean mouth that seems like he lost someone too. Between some prideful fights, tentative jabs, silently holding hands in the dark and relative hunting, the teens seal an unlikely bound.

    They keep finding each other after that. Again, and again.

    _______
    Or Shane is a second-gen immigrant from Japan trying to fulfill his Buryat grandmother’s last wish and in doing so he ends up in a grieving teenage Ilya’s Russia.

    They take even longer to realise they’re as inevitable as the sunrise.
