    Summary

    “I just,” David sighs. “I am just trying to understand.” He leans forward. “I did not mean to offend you when I said that you have a reputation. I just want to understand.”

    or,
    Maybe David Hollander didn't accept Ilya as immediately as we think he did. But it takes two minutes to realize just how in love with his son he is.

    Summary

    Ilya Rozanov is in love, closeted, catastrophically lonely, and apparently incapable of referring to Shane Hollander in present tense.

    The Centaurs come to a- given the circumstances- reasonable conclusion.

    Or:
    Five times the Centaurs thought Ilya Rozanov was mourning his dead wife, and the one time they discovered his wife was actually Shane Hollander.
    Shane, for the record, is alive and really confused.

    Summary

    What if there was a player who got transferred to Ottawa who wasn't as cool as the rest of the team with Ilya and Shane's newly discovered relationship?

    When Ilya hears something aimed at Shane on the ice, he would like a word. Many words.

    ***

    “Say. It. To. My. Face,” Ilya repeated, every word spit out from between clenched teeth, his accent heavy, anger dripping from his voice.

    In his peripheral vision, he saw Bood and Dykstra approaching and he held up a hand to stop them.  This was between him and Petrov.  He would take care of this on his team.

    “I will not do that,” Petrov finally replied, his eyes darting to somewhere behind Ilya and then back. “You’re my teammate.

    “I’ am your captain,” Ilya hissed.  “You say it to him, you can say it to me.”

    Petrov swallowed, and for the first time, glanced around him as if to ask for help from his other teammates, none of which would come to his defense right now because Ilya had told them to hold.

    Summary

    Ilya didn’t realise he had been holding his breath as the camera held in position for a while, until there was a slow zoom in, closing onto a tiny face that had not developed freckles yet.

    “Hello, Shanebug.”

    The voice of a younger David echoed in the living room, sucker-punching Ilya across the jaw and kneeing him in the guts.
    He barely had time to cover his gasp, clamping a hand over his mouth in an attempt to swallow back the sob that threatened to escape.

    “Ilya… are you crying?” Shane asked next to him.
    Thankfully, the video was paused, which was the perfect occasion for Ilya to burst into tears.

    Or, Ilya gets some insight on how Shane Hollander came to be.
