I don't know why did i do this, but here is the code , I stayed up late working on this, so I hope there aren’t any issues.

based on this code that turns the tags into text

and this pretty skin

setup steps:

click the code link above — it’ll open a long block of code. copy all of it (don’t include the title). it’s way easier to do this on desktop since mobile has copy limits

on AO3, go to your username → dashboard → skins → create site skin

give it a unique title, paste the CSS you copied, then scroll down and hit submit

once it’s created, just click “use” to apply the skin ˚ʚ₍ ᐢ. ̫ .ᐢ ₎ɞ˚

GOD. shane's wallet drops out of his bag in the locker room one day and stuff spills out, so a couple of the guys help him gather things up, and one is just?? hold up?? 🤨 hollzy, is this a fake id???

and shane is full fawn in front of headlights freeze mode, but he's still 18/19 atp so the older guys just give him some playful nudges and maybe ruffle his hair with, "mad you can't drink when we hop the border, huh?"

(the funny thing is imagining how this would change the eventual first meeting between ilya and shane's parents. the angsty thing is imagining how this might have scared shane enough to stop hooking up with ilya instead.)

you added my tags, and now i'm adding yours!!

"honey, no! i would NEVER want you to do that. that's so sad."

and shane has already very obviously been pushed to his fucking limit, so david taps in here and helps settle things down in which shane doesn't have to talk about His Special Friend (shane fully gags when yuna says this because she's over-correcting and doesn't want to assume terms until she's done a refresh on some online forums to make sure her words will be accurate) right now and can just wait until he's ready. and they love him and they'll love whoever he loves (shane is fully breaking out in hives at the L word getting tossed around like this), but they can wait until he's ready for that.

and now shane is in the position of his parents don't know WHO he's seeing, but they know he's seeing SOMEONE, and they are CHECKING IN NOW. AND THEY ARE ASKING HOW HIS PARTNER (the word they've arrived at after boyfriend, significant other, and special friend all made shane visibly nauseous) IS, AND. WELL. FUCK. HE DOESN'T WANT TO LIE TO THEM WHEN THEY'VE KIND OF MADE PROGRESS TOWARDS HIM GETTING TO LIVE HIS TRUTH.

WHICH MEANS HE CAN'T CUT THINGS OFF WITH ILYA EVEN THOUGH THAT'S HIS PANIC INSTINCT BECAUSE THEN HE'D EITHER HAVE TO LIE ABOUT IT (BAD) OR SAY HE BROKE IT OFF AND RISK GETTING ASKED FOR DETAILS (ALSO BAD).

Yeah, Ilya played wing as a stunt at the All-Star Game, but most of the time he and Shane are centres. It's what they're best at. And their team needs depth and consistency.

These days the average NHL shift length is 45 seconds. Yep, seconds. Get out there, bust your fucking ass, trade off before your performance noticeably slackens. Wait and rest and get back out there again.

So if all your star forwards are on one shift, the other team just has keep up the defense and wait for them to rotate off before going on the attack with their own best offense. It leaves a natural weakness in your strategy.

But by having great players spread across different shifts, there's no good time for them to let up. There's nobody they can relax for. When one monster trades off, another one hits the ice.

(And if the centres on the team are madly competitive with each other, they get to keep trying to top the other one's last shift)

And yes, Roger Crowell is having nightmares about this. But you can’t retroactively apply brand new rules that husbands can’t play together. The Centaurs would sue the league if they tried. I’m sure Crowell asked a lawyer.

Shane and Ilya can play on the same team because it never occurred to the MLH/NHL beforehand that they would ever have a hockey husbands problem.

You bet your ass there will be lots of new rules to make sure nobody else can ever do this, though. Crowell will make sure of that. But he and the rest of the league are stuck now with two of the best centres in the league anchoring the first and second lines in Ottawa.

I bet soon the Montreal GM and owners get shunned by all the other GMs and owners in the league. They allowed this travesty to happen by pushing their star centre out the door. And Ottawa’s GM is obnoxiously smug about the whole business. Crowell fantasizes about taking out a hit on him. Also on Rozanov and Hollander.

Secondly @my-moon and @onyxbird

After one inconsequential game, a reporter asks about what Coach Theriault and Hayden think of the future of hockey with their former star player playing with his husband. Theriault says some shitty PR nothing answer laced with so much disdain that Hayden just. can't. take. anymore.

Obviously his team wants him to shit-talk his best friend and de facto brother-in-law who happen to be playing the best hockey of a generation (he will never let Ilya know he thinks this). The reporter obviously is chomping at the bit for a "dissension in the locker room" story that will make his life even more miserable. So, fuck the both of them.

"and how about you Hayden, what do you think about the future of hockey with Hollander and Rozanov?"

"Well, I think they should get on having kids, like surrogacy or adoption of something"

Dead silence, the reporter blinks in confusion. He can feel the glare coming off Theriault burning into the side of his face. He doesn’t turn his head and blithely goes on.

“Yeah, specifically 3 girls. I have 3 girls so if they have 3 girls, we’d have a whole hockey team to start in the pee-wees and get to the PWHL. My Ruby would obviously be a defender. She’d spend her whole life in the box, but she'd be such a good enforcer, especially if she was playing with her sisters.  Jade is sneaky fast, so forward for her. And I know Amber is a baby, but I swear she’s got goalie eyes. My son Arthur is already the peacemaker of the family, so Uncle Shane could start training him up on all the rules so he can be our ref. But Shane and Ilya would have to get themselves another defender and a right or left wing with a center. Yep, that’s the future in hockey I’d love to see with Hollander and Rozanov”

When they're about to leave the locker room for warm ups, Bood steps into the door with his arm stretched out.

"Woah, woah, woah, where do you two think you're going?"

They share a confused look.

"Uh, to warm up?" Shane asks. Bood instantly starts to shake his head as Troy joins him at the door.

"We need a kiss."

Shane leans back a little in disgust surprise, beside him Ilya lifts his eyebrows in disbelief.

"What, both of you?" with a chuckle, to which Shane adds "From whom?" before stepping closer to Ilya. Who was famous for goal celebration kisses to sweaty cheeks of his teammates but that was pretty much all Shane was okay sharing.

"Ew, no, no, no." Troy waves them off and Bood shakes his head laughing.

"Each other. Last time you did before warm ups and we won 6 to 2 against the Admirals."

And, oh. Because. Shane isn't against PDA now that they're both out when they are around their team after games or out for dinner with someone or walking Anya around their neighboor hood hand in hand.

But. He had a pretty clear rule that practices, games and everything at the rink was off limits. That was work. That was different.

The first few away games he didn't even want to sit beside Ilya on the bus or plane. Let alone be couple-y around the others. He told Ilya he did not want even the slightest chance of someone feeling uncomfortable because of him. Them.

Last week had been different, though. Ilya had been feeling down for a little while. Not much, not bad. Just- off. And when they were putting on their skates for warm ups he had cracked a stupid joke. And Shane had looked over and something in his chest had loosened because- there was that mischievous sparkle in his husbands eyes again. Leaning over and kissing Ilya hadn't really been a concious choice. It hadn't been anything wild either. A closed mouthed, lingering press of their lips.

A steady few seconds to convey 'Hey, I missed you.'

Ilya had smiled fondly at him after.

Apparently Bood or Troy or someone saw this. And when they won, they came to the logical conclusion that that was because of their pre warm up kiss.

Now Ilya rolls his eyes because- as dumb as it is, in hockey world this makes stupid sense. But Shane won't like it. So, he has to find a way to- suddenly there are two hands cupping his face before he is being dragged to meet Shane's lips for a quick, smacking kiss.

"Let's fucking kill these guys out there." Is all Shane says after, bonking his helmet with Barrett and Bood before vanishing through the door.

Ilya stares after him, stunned and slack jawed.
