    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?

    “Well, he’s into everyone‒”

    “Henry.”

    “Sorry. Keep going.”

    Summary

    "Oh, Haz, he's absolutely wonderful," Pez gushes. He walks in a slow circle around the statue, giving a low whistle. "Some of your best work, surely. What do you suppose you'll do with him?"

    "That's the thing," Henry says, rubbing the back of his neck and trying not to cringe at what he's about to say next. "I thought I might, er... keep him?"

    Or, the modern Pygmalion and Galatea AU that no one asked for.

    Summary

    NYPD Alex x NYU Professor Henry Age Gap romance!
    “You absolute idiot,” Alex said, stepping closer, crowding him against the counter. “You think I’ve been showing up at your door like some kind of glorified dick appointment for six weeks because I don’t like you?”

    Henry’s stomach twisted up. “I thought—”

    But he didn’t get to finish. Alex kissed him, hard, like he’d been wanting to all night. Then again, softer, their lips sliding together in a way that was everything Henry had been desperate for and too terrified to admit. Alex’s hands were warm on his jaw, fingers brushing up into his hair, and for a moment all Henry could do was lean into him and feel everything, want, relief, terror, dizzy happiness, crash together at once.
