    Summary

    Jordan Bragg has never believed in love; he’s only ever believed in patterns.
    Following his breakup with Montreal Metro superstar Shane Hollander, Jordan is living exactly the kind of life he always claimed to want: hockey, hookups, parties, and absolutely no strings attached. It’s fun. Predictable. Just the way patterns should be.

    But between his escalating bad habits, concerned teammates, disastrous hookups, and a growing inability to outrun his own loneliness, Jordan finds himself forced to confront a terrifying realization: if this pattern is all he has, then he isn’t left with much.
    Before dating Shane, that never would have bothered him. Jordan thought he was incapable of wanting more. Of needing more.
    But now…

    Jordan finds himself up against one opponent he can’t outmaneuver: uncertainty.

    Summary

    2014: Ilya Rozanov shocks the world and breaks Shane Hollander’s heart by disappearing without explanation, and without a goodbye kiss.

    2024: A devastating injury forces Shane to retire early, so he moves to a small town to coach girls hockey and figure out what the hell to do with the rest of his life.

    When recently divorced Ilya Rozanov walks into the rink with his twin girls, Shane has to decide if he’s brave enough to risk a second chance on a broken heart, and a rekindled romance with the first and only boy he ever loved.

    ***

    “So.” Ilya cleared his throat. “Should we tell the girls their Papa and their coach used to date?”

    “We didn’t date. We hooked up a few times, then you disappeared.” Shane looked away to hide his heartbreak as he lied, “It doesn’t even matter. It’s not like I loved you or anything.”

    “No, of course not.” Ilya tried to smile through a lie of his own, “I didn’t love you either.”

    Shane Hollander had almost made it to morning skate on time.

    Then something ran out in front of his car.

    Summary

    Ilya doesn’t even try to stop the litany of Russian swears from spilling out. He also doesn’t stop himself from cursing Marly’s whole family line, and then verbalizing some of his more homicidal thoughts about Scott Hunter and the kitchen sink. He lets his Russian ranting die out and takes a few deep breaths.

    Everyone has quieted to look at him.

    “Feel better?” Marly asks.

    Maybe Ilya could drown Marly in the sink along with Hunter. Maybe he could kill everyone in the suite before Shane wakes up. He’d have to kill the butler guy, too…and the front of house staff…and the wedding chapel staff…and then convince Shane to run away with him to somewhere that would neither extradite to the US nor prosecute them for being gay. Messy. Too messy.

    OR

    Ilya wakes up with a wedding ring and a WHOLE LOT of questions...but at least Marly and Scott fucking Hunter are having a good time. This is Ilya's worst nightmare which, as it turns out, features a night of blackout drinking, misguided but supportive friends, and some VERY stupid decisions.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is young and struggling. With people, with money, with life. He’s just started a new job and he’s working his hardest to be able to afford college and work towards his lifelong dream of becoming a film director. Shane doesn’t do relationships, doesn’t have the time or the mental capacity for sex or love or anything of the sort.

    So what happens when a beautiful older man comes into the restaurant where he works and changes Shane’s entire life?

    -or-

    Ilya is Shane’s fucking sugar daddy.

    Summary

    “Is Boston even interested.”

    Ilya scoffs at him like Shane is an idiot.

    “Is sky blue? Is water wet? Is English stupid language? Yes, Hollander, of course we want best player in the league.” Ilya mutters more in disgruntled Russian and Shane gets up off the couch to Google Russian lessons on his ipad while continuing their conversation.

     

    Or, a Shane goes to Boston story.

    Summary

    (summary and tags contain SPOILERS for earlier works in the series!)

    Shane and Ilya are champions. They are partners, and they’re in it for life. And people are starting to notice.

    After being traumatically outed two years ago, Shane and Ilya's relationship and their lives have been fundamentally changed, and most days, Shane thinks that's a good thing. But sometimes, the pressure of being out, and the endless online speculation about #hollanov, and rumors running rampant through the NHL, and a new generation of rookies looking up to them, and the knowledge that everyone is relying on Shane Hollander to be perfect at all times—sometimes it's a lot.

    But Shane's dealing with it. Ilya seems happier than he's ever been, and Shane just needs to get his act together to support his husband. He can do that. He needs to, and he will, if he doesn't crack under the pressure first.

    They've got a second Stanley Cup to win, after all.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov has been drafted by Boston, the number one pick overall, but his father doesn't want him moving to America and so takes steps to block his visa. He's going to have to go back to Russia and stay there forever and that, thinks Shane Hollander, is wrong.

    It's so wrong that Shane can't stop himself from doing something about it. Even though that something is the most reckless, the only reckless thing he's ever done in his life. He marries Rozanov in secret, to keep him out of Russia and put him on a path to Canadian citizenship.

    Shane's got a five-year plan to get him there and when you have a plan nothing can go wrong. Right? Right. When you have a solid plan and a marriage that's on paper only there's no risk of feelings getting involved. Not on Rozanov's part and certainly not on Shane's.

    Right???

    Summary

    Shane hasn’t been new on a team since his rookie season. He hasn’t had to walk into a locker room full of guys he doesn’t know since he was nineteen. That first year in Montreal had been one of the most exhausting of his life, and the hockey had been the least of it.

    Boston’s locker room will be easier than Montreal's, Shane thinks. Hopes.

    Summary

    When the unsentimental financial imperative of the NHL sees Shane traded to the Boston Raiders, he and Ilya are thrown into closer extended proximity than ever before. As they adjust to life as teammates, they are forced to contend with the nature of their relationship -and must answer for themselves: is it even a relationship at all?
    ____

    Sliding down the wall, Shane hunched over his untied sneakers, shoved on hastily when Coach had called him in for a meeting after morning skate.

    “Boston wanted you specifically. I’ve already spoken to their GM. You’re flying this evening or tomorrow morning: I’ll confirm once the paperwork clears.”

    “Mom,” Shane managed.

    “Oh sweetie. I know, okay. Those fuckers, how dare they do this! Two fucking cups! Now all of a sudden they decide they want a reset and you’re going to fund it.”

    Shane put his head between his knees and tried to breathe. God, Boston. They hated him there; it was so far away; he was fucking their captain.

    Summary

    Shane Hollander is the most respected hockey journalist in Canada. He's been covering the Boston Raiders for three years. He has interviewed Ilya Rozanov fourteen times in a professional capacity. He has written 47,000 words about Ilya Rozanov's career. He has approximately zero words for what happens when Rozanov corners him in a hotel corridor after Game 7 and says, very quietly, in that voice: "You always leave before I can talk to you." Shane has absolutely no idea what to do with that.
    (Or: Shane doesn't play hockey. He just writes about the man who does. It is, objectively, worse.)

    Summary

    When it happens the puck has just left his stick.

    It's a clean hit, but Shane takes it horribly, crumbling on impact and colliding with the boards. While he tries valiantly to keep his head up, he feels himself slide sideways and his last fully coherent thought occurs as his head cracks against both the ice and the bottom edge of the boards.

    Immediately, the arena starts to wilt.

    “… We just want a future.”

    “I have only been in love with one person…”

    Shane falls backwards and sinks, the ice turning to water beneath him.

    “Holy shit. I love you too…”

    “I love you…”

    The words—memories?— are swimming amongst him, angled and distorted; they consume him, they’re are all he can process, even as someone else—a medic, maybe?— on the periphery now, says, "Just stay still Hollander."

    Or, upon appearing in a parallel world, canon-Shane is on a mission to fix AU-Shane's fucked-up life. Stat.

    Summary

    Will's husband, Hannibal Lecter, went missing nearly three years ago.

    Yesterday morning, a man claiming to be Hannibal Lecter disembarked a plane in Washington DC.

    He looks like Will's husband, talks like him, and everyone who interacts with him is convinced that the man is Hannibal. No one wants to hear Will's protests to the contrary. As the impostor takes up the reins of Dr. Lecter's life, Will begins to doubt himself. How could this man be the same he remembers? How could a stranger know him so well? When perceptions shift and Will is suddenly the one defending Hannibal's identity, the truth starts to matter less than holding on to the one person he's come to trust.

    Summary

    “What’s his name?” asked the shadow.

    Something in Loki stirred. He’d never had anyone ask him for his name before. He looked up, wary, and saw that a man had slipped a hand through the bars of his cage. Shakily, Loki crawled over to kiss his fingers.

    “You’re a sweet little thing, aren’t you?” the man murmured.

    An AU where some Jotnar are bred specifically to be sex slaves, and Thor, Prince of Asgard, has been sending out inquiries.
