    Summary

    The first thing you should know about time loops is that they’re really fucking hard to break. The second thing is that you can never break one in such a way that it is incapable of returning.

    The third thing you should know is that everyone around you has probably been stuck in a time loop at one point or another, and they made it out alive. This is only comforting if you’re a numbers guy, or if you’re the kind of guy who talks to others about how it feels to live the same day over and over and over and over and over and over again.

    Shame if you’re not; the most important thing you should know about breaking a time loop is that it helps to tell someone you’re trapped in one in the first place.

    Summary

    “You know, one day you’re gonna meet someone you love so much you’ll want to toss all your stupid rules out the window just to be around them,” Jessica told him the day they broke up.

    God, Shane remembers thinking. I fucking hope not.

    Summary

    Shane and Ilya had mutually agreed to keep their whatever-they’re-doing out of Sochi. It was an easy decision to make: this was bigger than any MLH rivalry and definitely bigger than a few hotel hook-ups. There was no room for distractions, not with Olympic gold on the line.

    So it’d be really fucking great if their daemons could get on the same page and stop trying to cause an international fucking incident.

    Summary

    “How many hours did you spend googling ‘best drugs for gay honeymoon’?”
    “Many,” Shane was now hugging him trying to reach the bottle in Ilya's hand. “I also googled possible side effects, if it's safe to take with your meds and if it shows up in doping tests.”
    “And then you bought a tiny bottle from strange man in a filthy bathroom in another country,” Ilya said.
    “Well how else are you supposed to buy-” He whispered the last word: “-drugs?” It was stupidly adorable.
    “You're a bad influence, Shane Hollander,” he held his husband tight so he would stop wrestling and kissed him.

    Or: Five times Shane and Ilya attend parties together (or something close to that). Plus one time they decide to skip one and Rose and Svetlana take over.

    (Fics in the series are standalone stories that share loose connections and references.)
