This is heaven and I'd die for it by Deerlie_03

Summary
For one, singular, blissful moment, nothing is wrong when Ilya wakes up.
And then the bubble pops.
With something less like a pinprick and more like a gunshot.
--
After Ilya is outed he has to deal with being the only openly queer player in the league, being Russian, and being in love with Hollander even after he ran away all at once. It sucks. He does it anyway.

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.

Summary
Shane is heavier than he used to be; his weight bears down on Ilya in a new way. He’s put on pounds of muscle since Ilya last touched him like this. Ilya flattens his palms, skims them under Shane’s undershirt, feels the flat solidity of his abs, the bulk of his lats, the swell of his chest. It’s the same and it’s new, this body; it’s the boy he couldn’t stop thinking about when he was 18 and the man he loved enough to let go at 26 and the person who somehow always comes to find him when he’s lost.
A stranger, and the love of his life.
—
or, Ilya's father doesn't die in 2017; Ilya breaks up with Shane instead of confessing his love. They get older, but not any less stupid about each other. Shane gets a boyfriend; Ilya gets on medication; they work on becoming whole people. And they always find their way back to each other.
OR a story for those who love Shane and Ilya's baby love but ALSO think it's hot when people in their thirties make active choices about who they are and what they want in their partner!!
Note: the "cheating" tag refers to the relationship between Shane and his aforementioned BF, not to Shane and Ilya cheating on each other.

Summary
Ilya scrolls through his message history. He'd sent Shane a message, 'Are you busy rn?' hoping for an impossible no, but he'd gotten the expected Yes, of course, I am Shane Hollander with a million brand deals, 'I have a video shoot scheduled.'
Ilya taps his thumb against the screen and the message zooms in a little, and all at once, Ilya knows. He knows that video is in front of him now, and he knows that it has to be filthy. It cannot be anything but a sex tape, but if he texts Shane now to ask if it is a sex tape and it isn't, Hollander might actually have a real panic attack across the border that Ilya can't pull him down from.
He has to watch it.
He has no idea where the fuck he's supposed to find a VCR.

Summary
I mean she doesn’t at least not **legally**, but definitely emotionally. But when you are getting most of your gossip out of the mouth of babes some things get lost in translation. One outsider’s perspective on how they assumed their child’s classmate had three fathers for most of the school year.

Summary
It's funny, actually, that Shane’s rival is somehow linked to the girl that he's dating. Even as Jackie’s breaths grow steadier and deeper, Hayden is still wide awake, counting everything he knows about Boston Lily.
The list is disappointingly short.
She lives in Boston.
She had been seeing Shane—or at least texting him—for at least eight years.
Her name is Lily.And their new discoveries from tonight:
Lily is a fan of hockey, and cheers for the Boston Raiders.
She hates Rosanov.He has all the right pieces, but now he only has to worry about managing where they’re supposed to go in his brain.
The epiphany hits Hayden so hard that he jolts to his feet, knocking Jackie halfway off his lap in the process.
“Hayd, what the fuck?” He tunes out his wife’s startled shout, desperate to not lose his train of thought.
Hayden forces every mental puzzle piece into place.
Boston Lily is Ilya Rosanov's ex-girlfriend—Or at least an ex-hookup.
It explains everything.
OR
During the MLH season following the cottage, Hayden reaches all the wrong conclusions about Shane and Boston Lily.

Summary
Ilya is not going to steal Shane Hollander's dog. That would be illegal. And wrong. And someone would probably find out and make Ilya give him back.
So. Not stealing.
But there is nothing wrong with giving Chernysh all the pats and treats that he deserves, is there?
Nothing wrong with encouraging Chernysh to spend more and more time at Ilya's house until he doesn't even remember who Hollander is.
Because Hollander is stupid and boring and does not deserve a dog as good as Chernysh. No, he doesn't, does he? Because Chernysh is the best boy in the whole world, yes he is.

Summary
Shane Hollander is the youngest Commander in ISS history; straight-backed, closeted, and so tightly on his own leash that seven months in orbit with Ilya Rozanov have not produced a single crack in his composure.
Ilya Rozanov is the Russian cosmonaut who should have had his job, won’t stop bouncing a tennis ball off the walls, and is still looking for a fissure. Thankfully, a solar storm finds it for him.
or: Near-death, zero gravity, and the wrong man’s hands in exactly the right places.

Summary
Shane Hollander was perfect; the perfect son, the perfect boyfriend, the perfect friend. He had spent years refining perfection, making sure he was the picture of it. It was second nature after all these years; a suit that didn’t quite fit, but that he’d gotten used to.
Enter Ilya Rozanov. -

Summary
The Swiss National League doesn’t care about the legendary Hollander-Rozanov rivalry. When the MLH can’t negotiate with the Hockey Players’ Union in time to prevent a hockey lockout at the start of the 2015 season, the Zürich Lions jump at the chance to sign both Shane and Ilya to short-term contracts. For four months in Switzerland, they share a team, a line, a house, and a bed.
Then the lockout ends in January, and it’s time to go back. Back to different countries, cities, lives. Beds.
Reentry is harder than expected.

Summary
Usually, Hayden can accept that Shane's private life is none of his business. When he’s at home waiting on four kids hand and foot, it’s not like he's filling his days making deranged cork boards connecting Shane to every gay man in North America.
But on the road, he has nothing to occupy his time besides the occasional Skype call and cable TV. It gets harder to ignore the fact that Shane’s swapping sweet nothings with a man he still won’t let himself talk about.
Or: After the cottage, Shane comes out to his teammates but swears that he doesn't have a boyfriend. Unfortunately for him, Hayden and J.J. don't believe his lie for a second.

Summary
Hayden watches Shane, almost expecting him to go, "wow, I was hacked while we were at practice, look at these weird messages!". But no such luck. Shane smiles.
A real smile, a big one, his text from Lily smile. God, Hayden was so sure they were sending each other endless strings of heart emojis and "I miss you more" "no, I miss you more"s, not…that. Never in a million years would he have guessed that.
Or: 5 times someone's shocked to learn that Shane's a little freaky, +1 time someone isn't

“What’s so funny?” Brad asked from the other couch, scratching at his chest as he took another careful sip of his beer.
“Look what I just found,” Ryan said, sitting up slightly, that smug grin stretched across his face.
Cliff blinked, sitting up on his elbows. “Hollanov compilation? Wait… what’s Hollanov?”
“You’ve never heard of Hollanov?” Conner’s voice carried from across the room, wobbling slightly as he stumbled over to join Ryan. “You’re in for a surprise.”

Summary
It was supposed to be a joke, okay? It was supposed to be funny, and they were all supposed to get a laugh out of it. Despite all of his protests, Hayden had thought he could get Shane to see the humor in it once he gave in. Except the longer Shane decidedly didn’t find it funny, the less entertaining it became for Hayden as well.
Hayden hadn’t ever actually done a deep-dive into the whole Hollanov internet obsession. He wasn’t prepared to have the cornerstone of his worldview be destroyed by a youtube compilation video.

The Montreal team watch a Hollanov compilation on youtube, for fun, and realize some things.

I'll be Jane by gurlsrool

Summary
It’s not going viral because Jane’s true identity was exposed—or even because Ilya was blatantly sexting in public. That part’s as expected as Shane doing yoga or any human being on earth breathing.
No, the texts are going viral because no one can believe how bad this “Jane” is at sexting.
The women of the world are outraged. The men of the world are baffled. No one can understand why Ilya Rozanov, whose abs have their own fan club, is wasting his time on ‘a piece of cardboard that wished to be turned into a real girl’ (this particular joke has 300k likes and counting).
Or: After a social media trend mocks Shane's sexting skills, he tries to improve them. It goes about as poorly as you'd expect.

Summary
Ilya knows firsthand that the world isn’t comfortable. It’s loud, bright, demanding, a harsh place in direct opposition to everything he’s recently learned about autism.
Is it so wrong that he wants Shane to feel safe here? To carve out a space where, even if only for a few hours, he doesn’t have to grin and bear anything? He can just be?
Or: Ilya Rozanov has a lot of good ideas. Telling his fuck buddy that he should consider getting an autism diagnosis isn’t one of them.
