Summary
"When anxious, Shane's palms become unbearably itchy. His at home shower routine has adapted to include copious amounts of moisturizing lotion to combat how his skin has become volatile, side effect of a new anxiety medication. Applying the lotion, he meticulously starts with his feet, working up past his ankles and legs, to his hips, then his stomach and chest, ending at his neck and behind his ears. It's methodical; intentionally repetitive for the sake of control, order. And yet, when anxiety rears her ugly head, placing stones in his stomach and trapping air in his lungs, his palms itch. So he scratches."
Shane Hollander doesn't like when he feels out of control. He likes even less feeling like a burden. Ilya Rozanov doesn't see him as that.

Bookmarker's Notes
This one had my heart aching. 4,000 words and I had to sit and stare off for a few moments after devouring them. Every author I read from this fandom has been able to articulate the deeper and darker parts of the human experience, and it has given me the deepest comfort to feel connected to this community. This one I should come back to when the world becomes too loud.

Summary
“He thinks you like me. ...Do you like me?”
"...You are difficult to not like. It is very easy to fall for you."---
Ilya thinks Shane Hollander's boyfriend is an asshole, and he doesn't think that just because he's head over heels in love.

Summary
"Ilya had loved him through his worst moments. Ilya had helped him find a therapist when he’d collapsed on the floor of their hotel bathroom after losing a particularly brutal game, scratching at his chest. Ilya had held him, even when Shane yelled at him because there was panic crawling under his skin and he felt as though it might claw its way out. Ilya had told him it was okay; that it didn’t make him a bad player to resent the spotlight sometimes, that it didn’t make him a bad teammate to hate the team when they were too loud and too drunk and too physical, that it didn’t make him a bad person to need space to breathe. Ilya saved him.
And look what you give him in return. You’re a shitty husband, Shane Hollander.
You don’t deserve his last name."
