    Summary

    Bottom Ilya and Top Shane:

    1. Because Ilya deserves to come so hard he cries (and Shane will talk him through it)
    2. Because, maybe more importantly, the experience is healing for Shane, whose only experiences with “topping” were in situations where his body didn’t want it.

    This fic is a love letter to my younger self, and a love letter to people who have had sexual experiences just because they thought they had to. I see you.

    Summary

    Devour was a good word for what Ilya wanted to do to Shane. Eat. Devour. Rolled off the tongue. But he hated that he could not think of an English word to convey the resonant, drilling consonants ringing in his brain when he kissed Shane with depth and hunger bordering on cannibalistic. The consonants in the Russian word that meant an act between consume and gobble up, with hard zh and rolling r sounds, were a crunch so delicious he could chew on it forever. Sometimes Shane felt like that. Like the crunchiest, most delicious hard candy in the mouth.

    God, the stupid fucking English.

    or

    Ilya thinks in English. With Russian subtitles.

    Summary

    Hey! Sorry to bother. We’re at the hospital. Ilya is fine, but he can’t speak English. Long story. Doctor says it’s temporary. I hope so. We thought you should know.

    Shane saw the message was immediately delivered and read. Svetlana started typing.

    Summary

    “So you had your favorites, yes? Pyatt, Kane,” Ilya probes, pressing firm, strong fingers into Shane’s muscles. Shane feels a smile growing. “Crossby? Had to be, of course,” Ilya says matter-of-factly, and that gets an eyeroll out of Shane. “Little Shane liked his hockey men hot. Jerked off, imagining…” Ilya trails off, looking for something on his face. Jerking off? To hockey posters? Well. Shane sort of knew people did that. Masturbating to posters of hot people, that is, maybe not exactly hockey players. He’d heard about it plenty, at least – musicians, movie stars. But Ilya thinks Shane did it, too. So Shane thinks. He really thinks about it, suddenly.

    or

    Ilya asks, and Shane is very honest. sugar coma levels of a whole lot of nothing but pure domestic fluff based on a tumblr post.

    Summary

    Yuna does not say, I’m sorry, I miss my mom, I can’t keep anything alive.

    There are parts of her she never wants Shane to see. She never wants Shane to know about the car she crashed at twenty, the herbs that died because she overwatered them, the miscarriages, or that she wanted to play on a hockey team very badly until she was thirteen. Only now, when her son is seventeen and her parents are long gone, does she understand her father had simply lied to her about the things he never could have forgotten.
