Summary
There was a saying in El Palmar, as old as any tale his mother had ever sung him: All roads lead to Wimbledon, and none return the same.
Every seven years, the civilized world gathers beneath the grand white pavilions of Wimbledon to joust, feast, bargain, spy, marry, and, on particularly unfortunate occasions, avert continental disaster.
After a rebellion leaves House Alcaraz politically exposed, its golden, beloved heir rides north determined to win the hand of House Sinner's second son—miracle babe, coveted jewel, luminous and rarely-seen. It would be a simple enough task, were he not simultaneously bewitched by the doe-mannered bride-to-be, constantly locking horns with a silver-tongued adviser, and developing an increasingly unhealthy fascination with a faceless knight without a banner.
OR: Somewhere between diplomacy, bloodsport, and courtly ritual, Carlos Alcaraz falls hopelessly in love three times over.
Secret identities are generally considered poor administrative practice. Unfortunately, it is the same fucking man every dastardly time.

Operation O Canada, or The Hollander-Rozanov Method of Soft Launching a Marriage by robbinscinquefoil

Summary
“Can’t hang out tonight, Hayd. I have plans.”
“Bullshit,” Hayden responds. “You never have plans.”
Objectively, this used to be true. Nowadays Shane has many, many plans, between his nightly plans to look at Ilya’s penis through Skype and his various long-term plans laid out helpfully in his notebook, Canva (For Ilya’s sake. He is a visual learner), and more recently, Excel. Shane loves that excel sheet. He’s colour coded it.
In 2017, Shane Hollander spirals and proposes to his boyfriend of 4 days (or 7 years, or 9 years, or not his boyfriend at all, depending on how you look at it), which leads to a lot of plans, weird theories in the Montreal Voyageur locker room, some Twitter drama, and Ilya Rozanov entering his WAG era.

Summary
Carlos Alcaraz, 27, and well on his way towards becoming the undisputed GOAT of tennis, appeared with none of his usual effervescence at his press conference yesterday. Were it not for the golden trophy sat gleaming by his elbow there was nothing in his demeanour to indicate the completion of a double three-peat at Wimbledon.
Little could the assembled press pack have known, however, of how we were about to be treated to the biggest sporting scoop of the last decade, if not century.
“I need to step back from tennis for a bit.” Alcaraz declared without fanfare.
Or, Carlos takes a sabbatical and somehow ends up working at Jannik's restaurant.

Jannik
Flavi. Can you make sure Mensik keeps his distance from Carlos?Flavio
huh?
omg r u jealous???Jannik
No. But that double was ridiculous to watch. He’s supposed to play tennis, not get all cozy with his partner.
Just, like
Distract that Czech a bit, will you?Flavio
oh i’ll distract him alright
Flavio sets out to do exactly that. Bit of flirting, bit of drama, bit of fun. That’s what he does best, after all.He’s not expecting to develop a crush.
Or: Carlos gets along a bit too well with Jakub at the Laver Cup. Jannik enlists Flavio’s help. Poor Jakub’s just getting caught in the crossfire.

Summary
Rozanov cocked his head. “You speak Russian? Or just the curse words?”
“Yes, I speak Russian,” he snapped, defensive and angry. He knew that it had been a mistake to even try to be friendly with Rozanov. “Why? Do I not look Russian to you?” He scoffed.
“No, not really,” Rozanov said. Some of his teammates laughed, although they mostly looked surprised that Shane was speaking to them at all. Rozanov didn’t laugh, though. “Are you Russian?”
“Go fuck yourself.”
+++
Despite an inauspicious start, when Russia’s Ilya Rozanov learns that Canada’s Shane Hollander is fluent in Russian at their first World Junior Championships tournament, it changes everything and sets them on a different course. Instead of being branded as rivals from the very beginning, Ilya and Shane start off as friends.
And, after all, a little friendly rivalry never hurt anyone, did it?

Summary
This is what a rivalry is: standing at the end of the tunnel after yet another battle, bodies as still as rubber bands pulled taut. The scent of sweat and the ache of short-term memory converting small talk into the heaviest words in the world. Impossibly normal conversations with impossibly simple ends.
or: Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner's relationship developing across each of their matchups (from the 2021 Paris Masters to the 2025 US Open final), as told from the perspective of the loser of each match.

When people are desperate they turn to faith. Panem has done a good job creating a truly secular society, stamping out the religions of the past, but nothing can stop new gods from rising.

Or: When Gaea curses Percy to live in a world without the gods, he winds up in District 4 and is chosen as tribute for the 70th Hunger Games. From there, everything just kind of spirals.

Summary
Out on the deck, the sun is so bright Carlos has to shield his eyes from the blinding reflections dancing on the deep blue of the lake.
"So beautiful," Jannik says. He has come to stand right behind him to look over his shoulder, but Carlos doesn't need to look to know his exact position, the exact scrunch of Jannik's face in studious awe as he contemplates the lake.
A part of him always knows exactly where Jannik is, a part of him always tries to figure out exactly what he's thinking. Years of playing Jannik have left their mark, and now Carlos couldn't erase the knowledge even if he tried.
He ignores the warmth pooling in his belly.
After Wimbledon, both Carlos and Jannik only want to go somewhere no one knows them, where they can have a real holiday. When Juanki offers Carlos his holiday home, he invites Jannik along for some time away from the spotlight.
Away from prying eyes, will they become closer than ever? And what will happen when the world of social media notices their absence?

Summary
Fresh off another career-defining win, Carlos Alcaraz expects the Winter Olympic Games to be little more than a whirlwind of sponsors, ceremonies, and polite small talk. Tennis is his world, ice and altitude very much not.
Then he meets Jannik Sinner. Italian alpine skiing phenomenon with effortless composure and a smile that lingers longer than it should, Jannik is everything Carlos didn’t expect to find among snowstorms and ski lifts.

Summary
Carlos Alcaraz, at 26, has spent seven years building his reputation as a male nanny. His multilingual skills and musical background have helped him succeed in a field where male nannies are uncommon. When his agency contacts him about a new position, they hadn’t given much detail. Just that a wealthy, single father - Jannik Sinner - needs a full-time nanny for his two children and the pay is exceptional.

Summary
Jannik hits a clean shot, a lashing forehand that lands the ball deep in the ad court, grazing the line and lifting a wisp of white off the grass. The kick of the topspin dizzies the ball into the air. Carlos, out of position, jumps and lunges toward it, throwing all of his weight forward.
Jannik can tell he’s going to miss. He’s already turning to his team, one fist raised, when the ball whizzes past Carlos’s outstretched racket.
He doesn’t see Carlos land. He doesn’t see him collapse into the dirt.
He hears a crack, like a heavy tree branch, snapping in a windstorm.
He only looks back when Carlos starts screaming.
