    Summary

    Ilya’s obviously aware that there’s something up with Shane, okay? No one who spent their formative years (as well as their twenties and thirties) obsessively watching Shane Hollander Best Goal YouTube clips could glimpse what was going on with the Metros last season and think that nothing had changed. He asked and asked over the summer months, and Shane denied and denied and denied to the point where Ilya had to wonder if Shane knew there was something up with himself. But that was silly. Of course Shane knew.

    Ilya likes to think he’s the Shane Hollander whisperer. He knows about Shane’s dormant exhibitionism kink and how to trigger it without triggering what neither of them like to call an anxiety attack. He knows the difference between Shane's hungry stomach grumbles and impending-stomach-ache stomach grumbles. There’s probably not a freckle on Shane’s body Ilya hasn’t licked before, if he’s being honest. That’s not really impressive or a key to revealing Shane’s psyche or anything, but it’s probably worth mentioning.

    On Shane Hollander's transfer to the Ottawa Centaurs, and everything he left behind.

    Summary

    JJ didn't think the others saw it. Hayden, maybe, but Jackie was the only WAGs's name Shane had committed to memory so Hayden never brought it up. JJ didn't have a wife or girlfriend. He had his hookups and the names of the best restaurants in each city they player in. If JJ had a dog, Shane would probably mix its name up with Drapeau's. The others didn't get that however pathetic or sad they might think Shane, Shane thought the same of them tenfold when they missed shots at practice or ate fast food on weekdays. Shane wasn't being prissy or funny when he said, don't embarass me—JJ still doesn't know exactly what it was, but he doesn't care to find out.

    Shane had poured everything into his team (possessively: it was his team) and he asked them to give it back that day, so they delivered. When Shane smiled at them afterwards, it felt like love.

    Character study on neurotic batshit hardass Captain Shane Hollander. The awe-inspiring and aloof Canadian Hockey Jesus Shane Hollander. Unwilling MLH sex icon Shane Hollander, the face on many mens' dart boards.

    or, JJ on the enigma of (his feelings for) Shane Hollander over the years.

    Summary

    By the time they hit Richmond the sickly Virginia heat had crept in, wet and heavy, and his back was becoming one with the leather seat. Even Scully, who in his mind was the human equivalent of a cool Spring breeze, was looking—well, with her sweat-flecked hair and her eyes hooded against the morning sun, she looked just fine to him.

    A humid weekend in Southern Virginia and a case that’s going nowhere fast. They edge closer to one another, for want of anything else to do.

    Summary

    “My uncle sent soldiers to kill me in my sleep. It is…difficult,” Caspian admits, brushing his thumb across the skin of Peter’s inner wrist, feeling him jump and shudder faintly, “to sleep there. When I remember.”

    “You’re going to have to eventually,” Peter says, because even now it seems he retains his irritating habit of saying inconveniently truthful things, things Caspian wishes not to confront on his own. It’s another one of the things Caspian misses about him, along with his courage, his insight, his smile.

    “I know,” he whispers, because he does. “But this is a dream.”

    (or, caspian mourns, and caspian wishes, and caspian dreams.)
