    Summary

    Shane was fourteen the first time a number felt like safety.

    The nutritionist worked out of an office in Kanata, framed certificates, a calm voice, laminated charts with columns. She explained it simply: fuel in, output required, timing of each. She said it was a starting point.

    Shane took notes in the margins the way he took notes on everything—completely, past what was required. Yuna had found the nutritionist herself, sat beside him, and took notes too.

    Like mother, like son.

    -

    Or: Shane’s system works until it doesn’t; Ilya notices first.

    Summary

    He looks at Yuna, who looks at him back, seeming like she wants to say something but doesn’t know how.

    “Shane says you have been a Metros fan for your entire life,” Ilya offers.

    It’s a good starting spot. Things they both know. Shane. Hockey.

    Ilya is determined to earn the right to love Shane the way he’s had to earn everything. He doesn’t expect for that to extend reciprocation, but it does, anyway.

    Summary

    The outside world could be melting and deforming into something monstrous, for all Ilya cares. Shane looks at him with the same sincerity he brings to everything else he does, and Ilya is one of those things now. A permanent fixture. An object of care.

    “If I was your vase,” he asks, unable to help himself. “Would you take good care of me?”
