    Summary

    The Boston Bears group chat had sixty-three new messages in the span of three minutes.

    His coffee forgotten, Ilya swiped open the chat, scrolling quickly to find the source of the commotion. A link to The Athletic, posted by Jensen, their captain, followed by a string of exclamation points. Ilya tapped it, the headline materializing on his screen like a blow to the chest:

    BREAKING: MONTREAL VOYAGEURS’ SECOND DRAFT SHANE HOLLANDER ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT

    Ilya's pulse jumped, hard and sudden in his throat. The mug slipped from his hand, not falling but landing too heavily on the counter, coffee slopping over the rim. He set it down properly, his movements mechanical, and forced himself to read the rest of the headline:

    20-YEAR-OLD ROOKIE OF THE YEAR STEPPING AWAY TO PURSUE HARVARD BUSINESS DEGREE

    Or

    Shane Hollander has spent his entire life living and breathing hockey. At twenty, at the height of his career, he makes an unthinkable choice: he walks away to discover who he is beyond the ice.

    But some things don’t stay behind.

    What happens when the rivalry between him and Rozanov ends, but the pull doesn’t?

    Summary

    After launching the Irina Foundation in the fall of 2018, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov seek to affirm their newly-announced friendship and get people used to the idea that there’s more to their shared history than is commonly known. They decide that they’ll reveal new details about noteworthy moments in their shared past on the 10th anniversaries of those events.

    (Or: 5 times Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov tweet about a 10th anniversary before the public knows about their relationship, and 1 time they tweet about a 10th anniversary after being involuntarily outted).

    Summary

    Tony Stark is convinced by his family friend Obadiah Stane to adopt a kid in order to improve the tarnished image of Stark Industries. The media always loves a soft, single dad, so it's perfect to get the PR they need. Pepper is enraged. Rhodey is disappointed. Happy is confused. All of this, Tony expected.

    What he doesn't expect is to bring home a kind-hearted, intelligent, four-year-old kid named Peter who slowly gets him to come out of his egocentric shell.

    Summary

    When Lara Jean moved to New York for NYU, she had great plans and big expectations and a whole life mapped out inside her head, only to find that she's one of millions who were all thinking the same damn thing.

    One semester of sophomore year in, a breakup where no one did anything wrong (the worst kinds, if you asked her), homesickness, and the inability to go home for the holidays, she finds herself a little lost and lonely.

    Until one unassuming afternoon when she somehow miraculously managed to walk right into the painful corner of someone else's coffee table.

    Summary

    Peter never made any plans to run away, until the day he leaves. It isn’t an idea that slowly creeps up on him. He just stands over the sink one day in early spring, watching his father’s bright red ashtray bob up through the soap bubbles, and feels an overwhelming urge to get the hell out of this place.
    Two years later. Tony Stark has been keeping his identity as Iron Man a secret, successfully hiding behind his spoiled, rich asshole persona. It’s isolating, but he doesn’t even like people anyway, so it’s fine, he’s fine, he’s great. And then he gets saddled with a new intern, who isn’t just hiding secrets: he’s barely holding it together.
