Tuesday, February 17, 09:48 PMSubject: Photo Credits
Good evening, Mr. Rozanov.While I’m flattered by your continued attachment of my photography, crediting photographers is generally considered basic professional etiquette.
Considering this is now the fourth time you’ve used one of my pictures without proper credit, I figured I should finally mention it.
Best regards,
Shane Hollander
Social Media Manager — Montreal MetrosRozanov was an asshole. An asshole who wrote articles that managed to insult everyone in the league.
Shane was not an asshole. He wrote informative articles, ran the Montreal Metros’ social media, and mostly minded his own business.
All he wanted was proper photo credit. He definitely hadn’t expected it to turn into months of emailing back and forth.

Summary
Rozanov watches him for a second, something a little sharper slipping into his gaze. “How did you figure it out?’’ He pauses. “That it’s me?’’
“Mmm. First, I recognised your chain when you got out of the water.’’ Shane says brushing the cross that hung from Rozanov’s neck with a finger. “ I went to check the pictures you sent me to make sure it’s the same, and it was. Well and then you sent a message in the group chat.”
“So you immediately texted me the moment you found out?’’
“Basically, yeah.”
“Good thing you do not think and also sent a message into chat.’’ Rozanov snickers teasingly.

Does it count as catfishing? (Even if both lie) by Nianiika

Summary
Technically, he would never have downloaded a dating app if it hadn’t been for his friend, Cliff. He was proudly showing him the women he was texting, Explaining all the filters, settings, and stupid little features the app had.
Ilya had only been half listening until Cliff mentioned that your profile could stay completely anonymous. Anonymous sounded very good.
He downloaded the app later that night. Mostly out of curiosity, he tells himself, but maybe because the idea of finding a hot guy without anyone knowing about it suddenly sounded like a very good idea.
Or
Ilya downloads a dating app and out of every possible person, he matches with none other than Shane Hollander.
But neither know who the other person isSeries

Summary
“Go get laid, dude.” Hayden had snickered at him while they sat at the bar in the Hotel. The others had laughed at the innocent joke while Shane's face felt like it would explode any second.
And maybe it wouldn’t hurt to have someone to talk to about something else for once. Maybe his obsession with hockey wasn't that healthy after all.
So Shane did the one thing that made the most sense: downloading the first “dating app” that popped up in the App Store to try to meet new people. Preferably people who don’t know who he is.

Summary
“I’m trying to figure out,” Rose wonders aloud. “Are you always a complete prick? Just with women? Or just when you lose a game?”
Ilya barks a laugh, shocked and almost delighted, and his smile spreads wide enough that Rose can see all those pearly whites of his that are so much nicer than she expected any hockey player’s to be. “All the time,” he grins, “all the time. However much of an asshole Hollander has told you I am, double it.”
She answers truthfully, shrugs her shoulders in her tiny silver dress. “He hasn’t mentioned you at all.”
After a shitshow of an evening in a Montreal nightclub, Ilya wakes up the next morning in Shane’s bed. Only, he’s not in Shane’s bed — Rose Landry is, and he’s in Rose Landry’s body, and she’s in his. Well, what the fuck are they supposed to do with that?

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

Summary
“Wait, I could totally see that,” Connors says. “She wears reading glasses and he’s, like, obsessed with them. Sometimes on the road, he calls her from the bathroom and I hear him begging her to put them on.”
“The glasses! I heard that too.” Shit, it must be a fetish, right? She doesn’t just happen to be old. Rozy likes that she’s old.
Or: Cliff figures out why Ilya’s keeping his Montreal girl a secret. She’s not a girl at all...she's an elderly woman. Or maybe an elderly man?
