    Summary

    “How’s your head, baby?” Shane asks, his voice soft and steady despite the lingering fear.

    “I have never had any complaints.”

    “Jesus Christ,” Shane sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose between his finger and thumb. He’s smiling behind his hand, though. The relief in his body is still a palpable thing.

    Summary

    "Can you speak, Ilya Rozanov?"
    "Yes, ma'am." Ilya responds obediently. "I am happy to meet you."
    "You are scared shitless, Ilya Rozanov." She says.
    "That, too." He nods. "I want you to like me very badly."
    "I don't like anyone." She says, but Shane watches in morbid fascination as a grin reveals her gold teeth. "I am a terrible old bitch."

    Ilya Rozanov meets his husband's great grandmother and certain understandings are reached.

    Summary

    It does mean missing out on things like barbeques and team dinners sometimes, but it’s not as if he would have been able to participate anyway. At this point in his life, risking someone not taking his allergies seriously would mean potentially missing games, which makes it unacceptable. Jackie always makes sure he has a dish or two that’s safe when he’s over at their house, but if he was going to be the one guy sitting and drinking ginger ale instead of taking part in sharing nachos or Korean barbeque or burgers or any other delicious thing he goes in knowing he can’t have anyway, there’s no point in making a fuss about it. He eats at home, has a drink with everyone else, and he calls it a day. Easy. Safe. Foolproof.

    But also the reason it doesn’t occur to him that he hasn’t actually told Ilya about any of his allergies until it becomes immediately relevant five days into being at his cottage together.

    Summary

    Shane knows his mother would love him if he left the Metros, but he also knows that he could never give her a reason good enough for him to do so. She'd have an excuse, have a reason, have a way to make any event be something he could handle or deal with. They could probably make him commit murder, and she'd brush it off, let alone if Shane finally got tired of the weirdly racist and definitely homophobic comments that got made daily.
