    Summary

    He held an empty bottle in his hand that he should put down. The radio was playing the same silly show Hongo usually had running in his office. The volume was set so low, Shanks strained to hear it, but sound echoed in the hollow halls of the Holy Land.

    He remembered the password, only because it was the same drink he’s downing now. The line rang, he read the name off the bottle, and then he was live. Live. On Air. His crew might hear him now, wherever they were.

    “I’m…uh…” He was nervous. Or drunk. Or both. “One of my crewmates, he listens to you a lot.”

    “Oh, a sailor?”

    “He’s a doctor, but I’m…I’m his Captain.”

    “And you’re calling in for him? Is it his birthday?”

    “No, I’m—” He needed to hang up. “—away right now, so I wanted…all of them…to know I was thinking of them and listening to this…to you, I mean.”

    “A bridge is human ingenuity at its finest. Someone somewhere thought to make permeant the act of reaching out a hand. I’d be happy to be that bridge for you and your boys, Captain. We’ve got a few minutes left, so I’ll give you the floor.”

    Summary

    Cocky executive chef Ilya Rozanov starts working at a struggling fine dining restaurant that's desperate to use his brute culinary instincts to restore its reputation. But things quickly reach their boiling point as the perfectionist pastry chef Shane Hollander takes an immediate dislike to him.

    But to be awarded the Michelin star they both desperately crave, they'll have to put their differences aside and work together. And the closer they work, the quicker things heat up in the kitchen.

    Summary

    Hello! This is my first post, although I am a frequent visitor to this subreddit and have been for years. I have loved hockey all my life, but my real guilty pleasure is staying on top of all the behind the scenes gossip. As you can imagine, Scott Hunter kissing his boyfriend on the ice was a huge day for me!

    I recently noticed something with Ilya Rozanov that I don’t think many other people have, and I decided to finally post about it here to see if anyone else shares my opinion. Every hockey fan I’ve talked to in my real life has brushed it off because Rozanov is known as such a womanizer, but I genuinely think he’s in some kind of serious long-term relationship.


    Or the year before Ilya transfers to Ottawa, Shane and Ilya learn three things. Creating a charity is a fuck ton of work, coming out isn’t something you do just once, and the whole world seems to think Ilya Rozanov is in a committed relationship.

    Oh, and Ilya is addicted to Reddit hockey gossip.
