i stan everything tbh

All the Cens are at some team bonding dinner hosted by hollanov and Troy and Shane are in the kitchen at the same time for some reason and it's the first time they've ever really been alone in the same room together. Shane's been on the Cens for a while now and everyone's finally clicking and eventually Troy brings up that "Yeah man I dunno it's gonna sound crazy but for a while there I kind of got the feeling that you didn't like me ha ha" and Shane kind of looks at him because "Well, that's because I don't like you" and Troy's like "Ah." OH TO BE A FLY ON THAT WALL

as much as i love envisioning hollanov + some guy threesome i actually deeply believe that any attempt at even thinking about inviting another man into their bedroom would end in a situation that made a murder suicide look tame

a starbucks barista in florida puts his number on shane's cup and ilya spends 100$ instantly on his phone to get bots to review bomb that starbucks and mention that barista. shane didn't even see the number ilya threw it away instantly and doordashed a new one. when shane has photoshoots ilya leaves bite marks and bruises on his hips so that anyone who gets close enough to look knows he's not for grabs. and shane is not, actually, better. ilya gets no free drinks at the bar, shane sends them back. svetlana has not had a single night in their house without hearing shane moan through the walls, oh fuck, ilya, you're so good, so perfect- as if anyone could forget who ilya belonged to with that seven fucking carat ring on ilya's finger. jesus christ. they're doing monogamy that feels unethical in a way where they are in fact, too monogamous.

I just heard Project Hail Mary's genre coined as "Cosmic Hope" instead of cosmic horror, and I'm getting emotional all over again. I need to sit down. God do I love this story to bits.
