    Summary

    In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in room 1410, nothing goes wrong, and everything plays out exactly as we know it.

    In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in before Ilya can leave—and the seven-year situationship never gets the chance to start. Instead, through the power of miscommunication, Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010. With better support, they make better decisions. Their rivalry fizzles out before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced instead by a beloved “bromance". In 2015, they come out to the NHL and the world.

    No one believes them.

     

    Or: Somehow, despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s horror.

    Shane has been calculating that rate since the day he turned 10.

    Summary

    In his efforts to become the best captain possible, Shane accidentally cultivates among his teammates a debilitating praise kink.

    (Or, the unforeseen consequences of prolonged and repeated exposure to Shane Hollander's beautiful big brown bottom eyes, and its documented effects on a worrisomely increasing number of professional hockey players.)

    Summary

    A series of unconnected oneshots where Heated Rivalry characters (mostly Shane so far, but like my other series, I'm having Thoughts about Luca) reveal something about their backstory or reasoning for canon decisions. Because half of Shane's life has the potential to be deeply tragic when you really think about it and he deserves to live authentically.

    Marked as complete because all works stand alone and are complete, but I'll keep adding more as the plot bunnies arrive.

    Summary

    Shane’s thumb flicks through the MLH Snark subreddit like he always does after a rough game, looking for anything about him or his teammates.  Anything about a bad turnover, a missed shot — he can handle the jokes. He can handle the gifs. He can handle the memes.

    But he always had this deep concern that after a bad game, when all eyes were on him, and people were just searching for anything they could to turn people against him, he would find something about him and Ilya—he even had nightmares about it.

    So, he would doomscroll. Searching on Twitter or Reddit to see if they found anything. Tonight was no different, well, until he saw a newer post from a few hours ago.
