    Summary

    While Shane is out talking with his mom about his sexuality and her unquestionable acceptance, Ilya and his father are inside having a heart-to-heart of their own.

    Shane's father is so… nice. Easy, kind. Not constantly demanding that Ilya performs more, provides more, gives more, wins more, more, more, more—

    "So, uh." Shane's father cuts through the fog of Ilya's thoughts. "How do you feel about all of this?"

    What sort of question was that? "Uh, good, I guess." Ilya shrugs, before remembering that David's son is probably out there having a panic attack with his crying wife.

    Summary

    Yuna, if ever asked, would claim she accidentally dropped the glass that shattered on the floor that day and stopped Grigori Rozanov from hitting his son. That she would never, of course, slam a glass to the floor on purpose and interfere with an adult man abusing his child.

    Ever.

    _______________

    Yuna Hollander inexplicably develops a soft spot for her sons rival. In a random hallway in Los Angeles during the MHL draft in 2009. A soft spot that she works very hard on covering up over the next 8 or so years. Sometimes talking about him a little too ridiculously, or a little too much, afraid that it'll be extremely obvious if she breathes even one small compliment about him. Afraid someone will find out that she had seen something that day that brought out a fierce protectiveness in her, even if Ilya wasn't hers to protect. Shane could never know.

    Ever.

    Summary

    "Maybe it was their second summer together that Shane really started to notice it. He was still so, so happy to have his loved ones all together, but the novelty of it was starting to wear off and maybe that's why, when his family was all together for the second summer in a row, he realized Dad was saying Ilya's name incorrectly."

    OR: Shane is confidently incorrect.

    Summary

    Wyatt was not, like, nosy. For sure, he was interested. He was curious. He engaged with people, obviously, because most people were interesting and engaging and had cool thoughts and said neat stuff if you asked.

    So, no. Wyatt wasn’t nosy, but he wasn’t stupid, either.
