    Summary

    The entire world has it on video. Alex stumbling forward, straight into Henry’s shoulder, knocking him back into the table and then crumbling to the ground, the cake falling on top of them. Everyone thinks Alex was drunk, or that he hates him, or that he’s immature or unfit for his title, but none of it’s the truth. Everyone’s acting like it’s the end of the world regardless.

    And maybe, for Alex, it kind of is.

    --

    [Or, the way things might have played out if Alex had been diagnosed with type one diabetes after the royal wedding.]

    Summary

    Buck's parents' words linger like ghosts: he's too much, too intense, and no one stays. But Eddie keeps proving him wrong —one quiet reassurance, one terrifying call, one perfect day at a time.

    OR

    Five times Buck was convinced his intensity would drive Eddie away —and the one time Eddie made sure he never had to wonder again.

    This story is inspired by "Porfa No Te Vayas" by Morat

    Summary

    Wiebe could tell he was wearing Ilya down, but he still looked nervous. "Ilya," Ilya stilled. To his team he was always Rozanov or Roz or Rozy, never Ilya. "You're our guy. There's nobody I'd rather be our captain, to lead this team to another Stanley Cup. It's clear you don't like the guy, but we both know how good this could be."

    Ilya jerked his head in a nod. "We will destroy everyone, this is true." Wiebe seemed satisfied. Ilya stood to leave and delivered one last look at Wiebe "But I do not have to be happy about it."

    ***
    Shane and Ilya are estranged for years after Tuna Meltdown. Then Shane confuses everyone by signing with the Raiders.

    Summary

    After Ilya leaves the cottage, Yuna comes over to cheer Shane up. And maybe—maybe—excavate some shit she's buried inside herself.

    Basically I think Yuna and Shane should let their hair down and gossip a little. And, you know. Heal.
