Summary
The last of the Long Road Home Series. It feels like it's been a long road to write and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the comments and kudos. Hopefully y'all will like the ending as much as you like the beginning - but there's still some travelling to go before the boys reach the end. A few more bits of Romany to encounter. A few more things to learn. ;) And of course, adventure to be had along the way.

Summary
A somewhat takeoff of Where There's a Will There's a War, though that was unintentional. While there's nothing explicit, this is slash. If that's not your cup of tea, pass on by.

Summary
And around we go again but with a different cliche sort of phrase. How this went from a one shot to a likely trilogy is beyond me but I follow wherever the inspiration goes.
The beginning will not make sense at all if you haven't read the first one but the tl/dr summary is that d'Artagnan's mother was a Romani (gypsy) - one of the most hated peoples of all time. He saved the King from a traitor that resulted, of course, in his injuries. But he's back with the Musketeers, recovering, except now they know his background and they all have to learn to live with it.
As always, comment, kudos and the like are much appreciated and welcomed and no disrespect or disparagement is meant to the Romani people of any kind. Quite the opposite in fact.Series

He doesn't know his name, he doesn't know who he is, and neither does the werewolf he's on the run with. But he's pretty sure they hunt monsters, because they seem to be really good at it.

lover, come home to me by cherrylilies (cherrydialectic)
Fandoms: Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Heated Rivalry (TV)

Summary
Shane loses his game to a blizzard and his boyfriend to a bad hit, all in the same night.
Snowed in with his parents in Montreal, he watches Ilya get stretchered off on live TV, and discovers that when your relationship is a secret, no one at the hospital thinks to call you.
In Ottawa, Ilya wakes up with broken bones, a serious concussion, and a neatly edited brain. The months where he was lonely and depressed and fighting with Shane? Gone. He’s mentally living in the soft, hopeful beginning of things—and the more everyone tiptoes around him, the more wrong it feels.
The Centaurs step up. The Hollanders dig in. Shane tries to convince himself that “temporary amnesia” is not the same thing as losing him.
They’re still together. They’re technically fine.

heat seeker (the many names of ilya rozanov) by cherrylilies (cherrydialectic)

Summary
Ilya Rozanov has always understood the power of a name.
On the ice, it’s a threat.
In headlines, it’s a brand.
In Boston, it’s a chant.But in Moscow, it was once a lullaby.
And in Shane Hollander’s voice, it becomes something softer. Something dangerous. Something that makes Ilya want more than he was ever meant to have.From a golden kitchen in Moscow to the roar of Boston crowds, from hotel rooms and tuna melts to hospital monitors and wedding vows, this is the story of how a boy who learned what silence feels like finds someone who refuses to stop saying his name.
And maybe—just maybe—that’s what saves him.

Summary
After a viral photo outs Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov while they're still busy pretending their years-long situationship is mostly just sex, the fallout gets complicated fast. The world reacts badly. Their teams react worse. Ilya's future in North America starts to look alarmingly fragile, and Shane, who has never met a disaster he didn't try to control into submission, throws himself into fixing what can still be fixed.
Ilya has spent his whole life being wanted for the wrong reasons and discarded for the right ones. Shane has spent his whole life believing that if he is careful enough, good enough, controlled enough, he can keep disaster from reaching the people he loves.
A practical solution emerges, then a house, then rings.
Somehow, by the time they say their vows, both of them are certain they are the only one who means them.

Summary
After the tuna melt meltdown, Shane meets Rose Landry, has several deeply inconvenient revelations, and decides to do the only sensible thing: win Ilya back with sincerity, logistics, and a frankly alarming amount of emotional effort.
Ilya, meanwhile, mistakes every tender gesture for the kind prelude to an inevitable goodbye.
Or: Shane is living in a romcom. Ilya is living in a Russian tragedy.
