I was wondering if you could recommend some fics that have Ilya bragging about his Jane to his team mates (Boston or Ottawa).
Thank you!
I tried to find fics close to what you asked but focused more on "Montreal Jane" being the topic and marks left on Ilya's body. I also sprinkled in a few where it's Shane showing off marks Ilya left on him (:

Do you have a Drarry fic rec list? I'd love to read through it! If you have any fics with top!Draco/bottom!Harry, please send them my way đđ
BTW, I absolutely LOVED your fic Pull My Hair a Little Harder Please â it was perfect!!
Hi, thank you so much!!! đâ¤ď¸ I'm sorry I took so long to respond! I've never made a Drarry fic rec list before, so I decided to go through my bookmarks and put something together for you. Most of these are very well known already of course, but hopefully there's a few you haven't read yet!
There is a variety of ratings/warnings/tags for each fic. Not all are sexually explicit, although there is a general theme of bottom!Harry and/or sub!Harry lol. So mind the tags and enjoy! â¤ď¸
As Per Request by thecouchsofa
âYouâre the man for the job,â Harry said. He blinked a few times as his brain caught up with his mouth.
Malfoyâs brow furrowed. âIâm the what?â
âThe, uh, fuckâŚâ Harry rubbed a hand over the back of his neck. How the fuck was he supposed to ask Malfoy out without actually asking him out? âThis was a mistake. Iâve made an error.â
âHarry decides that itâs high time to lose his virginity, and figures that asking Malfoy is his best option. Heâs fit, he wonât go to the papers, and heâll be fine with Harryâs âno emotional attachmentâ plan. Surely nothing could go wrong there.â
my notes: very hot + funny and lighthearted fic about Harry deciding to lose his virginity after the war. one of my favorite dom Draco/sub Harry fics. Harry is adorably naive and Draco is obsessed.
In the Company of Serpents by corvuscrowned
"Thereâs something wrong with the serpents at the Greengrass Ophidiarium. Luckily, a certain Parselmouth just might be able to help."
Yours Truly by Skeptique
âEvery single one of Harryâs exes has gone on to marry the next person they date, and with the upcoming nuptials of numbers six and seven to each other, Harryâs feeling exhausted by it all. It doesnât really matter if he lets people assume Draco Malfoy is his boyfriend for a moment of peace. In any case, Dracoâs been away for five years and thereâs no way he would find out, right?â
See Me and Live by dodgerkedavra (everything by dodgerkedavra is an instant read tbh I cannot emphasize this enough, EVERYTHING)
âHarry and Draco are roommates. They're coworkers. They're secret boyfriends. And now they're having a baby together!?â
Daddy Issues by hoko_onchi
"Draco is enthusiastic about Harry's hot dad bod. And he makes Harry call him Daddy. That's it. That's the fic."
A Beginner's Guide to Living by kzwjhkdo
"It's been fifteen years, nowâit's been precisely fifteen years, six months, and twenty days. A lot has changed. Draco is a photographer, working with Pansy Parkinson at her fashion magazine. He has a potion business on the side. He's grown, he has a carefully cultivated life, and he's sure to have a very normal reaction to seeing Harry Potter again."
Trouble With Your Tie, Potter? by tenthousandyears
"The last thing Harry expects when Slughorn partners him up with Zabini is Malfoy shooting them furious looks throughout the whole class and then unceremoniously snogging Harry in the corridor."Â
The Way You Say My Name by InnerLilith
"In which Malfoy calls Harry pet names to get him flustered and riled up, and Harry gets flustered and riled up because he secretly likes it. The problem is that Malfoy is only teasingâŚor is he?"
Where I See Things Right by InnerLilith
âHonestly, once youâve spent years obsessing over someoneâs every move, constantly taunting each other, nearly killing each otherâ saving each otherâs livesââ Draco had gotten quite pink in the face and was punctuating each phrase with his chopsticks, âSex is the logical next step. Obviously. No other bridge left to cross.â He stabbed his chopsticks at Harry with an air of finality. âAnd Iâm nothing if not thorough. No stone unturned, and all that.â
When Harry finds himself unexpectedly pregnant after a one-off with Draco Malfoy, he knows he isnât keeping it. But when actually getting the abortion turns out to be more complicated than Harry expected, he finds himself turning to Malfoy for help through the process. And thatâs actually much less complicated than Harry expected.
my notes: one of the first mpreg fics I ever read and still one of my all time favorites. Draco is so sweet to Harry.
He Who Must Not Be Normal by Lettered
âMolly Weasley used to have a kitchen like this,â Potter said, walking over to the sink. âWhen they lived in The Burrow. There were always Charms going in the sink, and pots stirring on the stove. It always smelled likeââ
âIâm not going to have sex with you,â Draco said, finally finding his voice.
"Potter has fame and fortune and posh clothes and all he wants is a simple life. Draco has a flat and a cat and a steady job and all he wants is a complicated life. Which makes you think this story has something exciting like body-swapping, but it doesnât. Instead it has Indian takeaway and a blue jumper and people wanting a whole lot of what they canât have, discovering themselves as they discover each other."
my notes: this one is Draco POV and very Draco-centric, which isn't my typical go-to for Drarry? but it's still one of my favorites. Draco is really mean to Harry, especially in the beginning, but it's what Harry thinks he needs.
You Loveable Thing by ElenAndTara
"Harry's birthday has always been a sour topic to discuss. Harry has a ritual he's trying to break. Petunia's abuse is not fading easily at all."
my notes: This one is so sweet. Harry dealing with his trauma from the Dursleys and Draco knowing just how to care for him.
Two Weeks by shiftylinguine
If Harry had to guess which out of he or his Auror Partner, and tentative new friend, Draco Malfoy, would turn out to have Veela ancestry, his answer would be: neither, because that is ridiculous. Finding out the answer is actually him, and that his Veela heritage is wreaking havoc on his ability to work, sleep, and above all be in the same room as Malfoy, is a surprise to say the least. But this is fine. Harryâs been through worse, and he can just sit this one out, regardless of how much his body is screaming for the one person he doesnât want to ask for help. Canât he?
To Be Out On You Own (And Consumed By Another) by Cassiara
"By now even Harry recognises the pattern; heâd be an idiot not to. Heâll have sex, and in the moment itâll be amazing. In the moment he simply is, he feels without thinking. Good, bad, pleasure and pain, he can just let go and feel because he isnât the one in charge. Then he wakes up the next morning feeling disgusting and worthless and swears to never do it again. Still, it helps him forget about his stress, his anxiety and his hopeless crush on his Auror partner so he keeps going back."
Ten Thousand Reasons Why Not by lq_traintracks
Malfoy leans just an inch more forward, his lips nearing the shell of Harry's ear, and he asks, "Mind if I borrow that quill?"
Harry tenses, but without waiting for a reply, Malfoy steps even closer, right up against Harry, and reaches around, plucking the quill from Harry's numb fingers. As he does, the hand that rests on his hip slips around and tenderly spans Harry's lower abdomen, pressing in just a bit. Harry's breath hitches hard. Malfoy exhales at the back of his neck, warm and steady.
"That alright?" Malfoy's voice is so low and so close.
Harry and Draco are stand-ins for the usual witch who gives the workplace harassment and sexual consent talk to the Auror trainees. Or, a little tale in which Harry consents to be sexually harassed by Draco Malfoy.
Lusimeles by orphan account
"For a long while, Harry stares up at the pretentious silk hangings on Malfoyâs bedâthe master bed in the master bedroom at bloody Malfoy Manorâand circles cautiously around the word love like itâs a dog that might decide to bite him. He thinks, maybe, reaching out to grab the idea suddenly by the scruff, that love is too small a word for what he feels when he turns over to look at Malfoy asleep."
I'll probably keep adding to this list/editing as I go. I would love to highlight some lesser known pieces as well. I just have so many Drarry fics bookmarked that it's taking me a while to sift through all of them (and I am definitely using this as a distraction from working on my own WIPs, so I figured I'd better post it now and get back to work lmao). If anyone else has some favorite top!Draco/bottom!Harry fics that you don't see here, send them my way!! â¤ď¸ I can never get enough lol. Sub Harry is my babyyy
âIâm sorry,â Draco turned to him, âare we boring you?â
Greg looked up. âNo, Iâm just hungry, and youâre taking far too long to just tell them that you and Potter are soulmates. Do you have to be this dramatic?â
There was a moment of silence, before all hell broke loose.
Harry didn't know soulmates existed until he was fourteen. He wasn't sure what he imagined it would be like, but he knew it wasn't this. But that's not to say he didn't like it.
Draco Malfoy, Bloodsucking Fiend by Kbrick [E, 23.1k]
There are two things that Dracoâs Auror partner, Harry Potter, must never know about him. One is that heâs a vampire. The other is that heâs been completely, pathetically, head-over-heels in love with Harry for years. But when the duo is trapped inside an old shop on Diagon Alley with no means of escape, Draco finds himself fiending for blood and unable to put even a modicum of distance between himself and the man he canât stop lusting after.
Nosy by rubygreene [E, 2.4k]
Kinktober 2024, Day 23: Voyeurism
Hermione wasn't being nosy. She was here to make sure Harry wasn't hiding from his well-meaning, concerned friends, wasn't pretending his mood had improved to spare them, wasn't alone, in a secret, unplottable room, suffering in silence and solitude.
That would have been horrific, and Hermione couldn't stand it.
aggravated adultery by autistic_nightfury [E, 2.2k]
âDid Ginevra shoot down every suggestion of yours?â Draco guessed, and Harryâs grimace told him he had hit it spot on.
or
Draco is Harryâs way of blowing off steam. Draco wants him to be rougher than he is, and finds the secret to making it happen.
Nightfall in Norway by HannahOphio [E, 3.3k]
When a mission to capture a rogue dark wizard leaves Harry and Draco deems them unsuccessful the tension and exhaustion lead to an unexpected shift in their bond. As the night unfolds in their tiny motel room, they begin to understand that the line between rivalry and intimacy might be thinner than they ever imagined.
Please please, give me your longest angsty-est fics set in the situationship era, I need them
AND THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK YOU DO
The Distance Between Us
by Bruja_oscura
Ilya Rozanov has spent ten years circling Shane Hollander. Ten years of hotel rooms and secret phone calls. Ten years of pretending he doesn't feel it, doesn't need it, doesn't wake up reaching for someone who's already gone. Ten years convincing himself he's not good enough. That he's not worth it.
Then a plane needs to make an emergency landing near Montreal, and Yuna Hollander is on it.
So when Shane calls him from a bathroom floor, unable to breathe, Ilya stops pretending.
After five hundred miles of frozen highway, three and a half hours of driving like a man possessed, a hospital waiting room full of people who have every reason to hate him, and a boy who looks at him like he's something worth keeping, Ilya may have learned a thing or two about what it means to be lovedâand to let himself love freely.
Thorns
by TheLoveliestCrime
âHeâll never forget anything about their first night. Or any night he shared with Ilya. Every detail has been etched into him. Without them, he wouldnât recognize himself. Without them he was blank.
Stop thinking about Rozanov. Fuck.
He seeks new memories. New⌠etches.
So when future archeologists dig up his bones they wonât read them like a love letter to Ilya Rozanov.
Shane knows itâs risky.
But he doesnât know that tonight he wonât be etched, heâll be broken.â
When Shane hooks up with a stranger after a game, he thinks the worst that could happen is getting outed. He is wrong. What was meant to be a night to forget all about Ilya Rozanov, becomes a night when he needs him most.
Impact
by saintmontbeau
A rookie's bad hit sends Ilya into the boards during the Boston-Montreal game. Shane's three weeks of broken Russian are barely enough to calm him down, but it's something.
But when the scans reveal something much worse, Shane and Ilya have to figure out how to be there for each other in ways totally unforeseen.
Or: nothing like facing mortality for two idiots in love to be honest about how they really feel!
Some of these fics are long term favorites and some I recently discovered, in no particular order!
Bright gold and render lead by nasri
Tony Stark is newly sixteen, with chapped lips and a gram and a half of cocaine in his system, the first time he meets the Winter Soldier.
Where They'll Never Find Me by 27 dragons
Tony's daemon tends to creep people out, both because she's odd-looking and because she keeps trying to touch people.
calling me home by feignedsobriquet, weethreequarter
When Alexander Pierce turns up asking questions about Harley, it sets off alarm bells in Tony's head. But he never could've predicted it would result in him going on the run with the Winter Soldier in a desperate attempt to protect his children from Hydra.

Place in Your Heart by Potrix

The Gay Hockey show is gnawing on my remaining braincells, and I know I'm not alone in that. The tag is exploding, I don't know anything special, but⌠Here's some Hollanov fic I've enjoyed
Comment/reblog with your recs?

Shane calls his parents and, for reasons beyond understanding, asks them to pick Ilya Rozanov up from the hospital and take him home with them. They start to understand. Yuna Hollander POV
The Game Plan by FestiveFerret, pouringinsheets
64,024 Words - Explicit
Ilya's immigration status is compromised by a draft day celebration. Shane (possibly looking for an excuse to get out of a party) decides to help, which logically means they have to get married. You know you want secret marriage hijinks.Â
I'm Reading Your Lips (You're Speaking My Language) by some1_around
30,447 - Mature
Shane speaks Russian, and that starts the most famous friendship in the NHL. Full of feelings and metaphors about language and communication and trust.Â

Bodyswap. That's it, that's the plot: they wake up in each others' bodies. It's fun and sexy.Â

Shane gets traded to Boston halfway through his first season. Boston, where Ilya is. Cue panic.
Five Times Ilya Bossed Shane Around During All-Stars Weekend And Nobody Thought Twice About It And One Time They Did by leiascully (mature, 2k)
Ilya keeps telling Shane what to do in front of everyone. Unfortunately, Shane kind of likes it.
forget there's any other place by anonymous (explicit, 6k)
Theyâd wanted to escape the cage, but theyâd been in that cage for a decade and theyâd made a home of it. Out in the big wide world, they got homesick.
frequently, secretly fond of each other by milominderbinder (explicit, 127k, WIP)
Shrugging one shoulder far more casually than he possibly feels, Ilya says, âI like both. Is secret, okay?â
âOkay,â Hollander says, voice cracking.
He doesnât say anything else. The airâs so heavy around them that it feels like being in the middle of a scrum, the weight and heat of all those bodies pressing down on you. Danger always feels like hockey; itâs the most dangerous thing Ilya knows, except for this. Everything dangerous in his life involves menâs bodies and just how close he can get to them. Closer than he probably should.
Nobody knows why Shane Hollander dropped out of the 2009 draft at the last second, and a year later it stuns the whole hockey world when he's signed by the Boston Raiders. Having the two biggest stars in the league on the same line is great for Boston - but playing alongside their worst rival was never exactly in Shane or Ilya's plans. Especially not when staying away from each other starts to feel just as impossible as getting along.
i know where to draw the line by magneticwave âŁď¸ (explicit, 61k)
âHollanderâs Metros have had a challenging few years, with back-to-back knee injuries and a concussion keeping the two-time Stanley Cup winner and Olympic gold medalist off the ice for three consecutive postseason runs. Hollander is apparently back to fighting trim, but everyoneâs wondering if that will still be true come April. The Metros have promised that theyâre behind their franchise star one hundred percent, but there are signs they might be hedging their bets. The Metros announced last week that they have penned a deal with San Franciscoâs dynamic young Russian star, center Ilya Rozanov. The move has sent shockwaves through MLH, as San Francisco was widely expected to sign a contract extension with Rozanov, who became a restricted free agent in June.â
I'll be Jane by gurlsrool (mature, 7k)
Itâs not going viral because Janeâs true identity was exposedâor even because Ilya was blatantly sexting in public. That partâs as expected as Shane doing yoga or any human being on earth breathing.
No, the texts are going viral because no one can believe how bad this âJaneâ is at sexting.
The women of the world are outraged. The men of the world are baffled. No one can understand why Ilya Rozanov, whose abs have their own fan club, is wasting his time on âa piece of cardboard that wished to be turned into a real girlâ (this particular joke has 300k likes and counting).
Or: After a social media trend mocks Shane's sexting skills, he tries to improve them. It goes about as poorly as you'd expect.
ignoring every omen by guarddog (theslymoon) (teen, 14k)

play destroy by kneeinjury (explicit, 12k)
Shane is silent for so long that Rozanov leans, slouching against the doorframe, and raises his eyebrows at him expectantly. âYes? You are selling bibles?â
âYou fucked my girlfriend.â It tears out of him.
âAh,â Rozanov drawls, as if the thought is just now occurring to him, âyes. I did.â
struggle pretty by thesehands (explicit, 19k)
Ilya locked his arm around Shaneâs throat and drew him up onto his knees. The hold was snug, a real headlock, the kind that would make most men tap out. Shane didnât tap out, but he stayed very still. His pulse galloped against the juncture of Ilyaâs elbow, powerfully enough that Ilya could feel its insistent throbbing. Everything in the room had been pulled tautâthe cord of Ilyaâs shoulders, the line of Shaneâs back, even the air between them had a rigidity to it. Ilya was breathing heavily, panting open-mouthed against Shaneâs sweat-damp temple.
âI could fuck you like this,â Ilya said. âI could fuck you right now, like this, not let you breathe, not let you come.â
wait for a different ending by garagepaperback âŁď¸ (mature, 13k)
In my defense for being late with this, the HEATED RIVALRY fandom has been putting out not just bangers, but longfic bangers that update regularly, where multiple fantastic authors are still in their feverdream state and I am but a simple reader who is trying desperately to keep up. It's so far beyond being a problem that it's wrapped back around into being the best thing pretty much ever! I still can't believe this fandom that had like 2k fics when I joined will soon have 20,000 fics, what a time to be in a fandom!
This set has a whole bunch of fics that changed my brain chemistry, like that incredible Irina fic or that fic that humanized Alexei for me and now I can't go back or the Bears sort-of-not-really kidnapping Shane because the Voyageurs suck or some absolutely incredible explorations of Ilya's self-harm tendencies or the funniest Kip portrayal I've ever read or Shane being a competitive freak vs being a horny freak for his husband: FIGHT, all of it is absolutely wrecking my id. Nobody save me, I'm exactly where I want to be.

Would love that, quite frankly, but until you do, I want those goddamn pictures, Rozanov. Am I clear?â Ilya wanted to make some quip about Pike trying to get a different kind of picture out of him, but given the circumstances... He just nodded. âGood. My kids tragically love the fuck out of you, so figure this out.â Ilya nodded again. âAlright then.â

   When Ilya Rozanov goes down on the ice, the Boston Bears are already moving to defend their captain. No one expects Shane Hollander, captain of the Montreal Voyageurs, to be the one who throws the first punch. Or: the Boston Bears figure out Ilya and Shaneâs relationship firstâand decide that instead of letting their captain move to fucking Ottawa, theyâll just kidnap a his boyfriend instead. Shane Hollander would make a better Bear anyway.

   Shane rolls onto his side and stares at the faint outline of the window. The darkness presses in, but it doesnât feel as suffocating as usual. Before he can talk himself out of it, he reaches for his phone. The screen lights up the room, too bright. His thumb hovers for a second, then he opens the thread. Shane: I think we should tell Scott.

One for the Road by PastyPirate, ilya/shane & centaurs, NSFW, 28.4k
   âYou canât go two weeks without fucking me anyways,â Shane heard himself saying, and instantly felt like heâd chosen the wrong dialogue option. He shouldâve said something like Iâd like to see all the ways you can figure it out or maybe not sharing a room has never stopped us before. Ilya let out a laugh, âPlease, you beg for me all the time.â âIâm not the one who canât go more than a day without jerking off ââ shut up Hollander, SHUT UP âI can totally go two weeks without fucking.â

The Condom Cartel by CognitiveMiser, ilya/shane & ocs, 5k
   Team Canada is undefeated, the Olympic Village is buzzing, and Shane Hollander just wants to focus on hockey. Unfortunately, his husband has discovered capitalism. When the Olympic Committee announces a condom shortage across the Village, Shane assumes itâs just another chaotic headline in an already surreal tournament.

Scotty Didnât Know (but he sure does now) by halfbaked_ziti, ilya(/shane) & scott, 1.8k
   âYou have problem, you bring it to me,â Rozanov growled. âNot him. Me. I am not so easy of a target, not like boring Canadians. And you keep that shit off the ice. Chirping, yes, fine. Not that. Never that. You are older than the game of hockey, should understand difference by now.â Canadians? âWait,â Scott said slowly. âIs this about what I said to Hollander the other day?â

I can see it, your face is glowin' by joldiego, shane(/ilya) & hayden(/jackie), 4k
   Shane is stooped over to strap on his shin guards when his phone buzzes once in Haydenâs hand. He doesnât mean to tap the notification. And oh god, does he wish he could un-tap the fucking notification. Because why the fuck has Lily, Shaneâs mysterious Boston hook-up of several years (no matter how fervently he denies it), sent him a picture of a fucking sonogram. Black and white, blurry, and undeniably baby-shaped.
MORE RECS UNDER THE CUT because I have some fucking manners. Sometimes.

The Heat by dntat, ilya/shane, NSFW, omegaverse, 6.2k
   The flight home seemed to take forever. So did the drive, even as he broke every speed limit. His hand was shaking when he tried to get the key in the door. Once, twice, he missed. Then it was flung open. Shane was standing there. He was dressed only in the smallest pair of briefs, the black fabric stretched over the curve of his muscular thighs and ass. A fine sheen of sweat covered his skin and his chest was heaving with shallow, panting breaths. His eyes were hazy and dark. He smelled like sweat and sweetness and Shane. Like everything Ilya had ever wanted since he was just a boy of seventeen. Or: Shane's suppressants are failing.

Did he just� by anarchyat4am, ilya(/shane) & scott(/kip), 1.2k
   Rozanov flinches when a loud laugh breaks the white noise from the party inside, and Scott realises that Rozanovâs been doing the same thing he has all these years: cataloguing who is or isnât safe, watching, noticing, waiting.
meat ugly by thathastu, ilya/shane, 1.7k
   When Ilya agreed to let Shane adopt a cat to join their family, he did not expect Shane to fall in love with a hairless cat named Pork, the fattest, meanest, and ugliest creature that the shelter had to offer. And he certainly didn't expect for Pork to be his sworn nemesis.
Peeled Rotisserie Chicken by Nimming, ilya/shane, nsfw, 1.4k
   Moving back to the cottage meant relaxing and spending every second with his husband. Instead, he's having to fight for attention. Insert a two step plan for Ilya to steal back his husband's affection.
finsta by Marmeladeskies, ilya/shane & centaurs, nsfw, 1.7k
   LaPointe tries to catch him, but Holmberg leaps from his chair, holding his phone high and reading the post out loud so everyone can hear. â-following her from his main professional account.

like the back of my hand by xianvar, ilya/shane & hayden, 1.3k

the tape measure incident by 17darwinism, ilya/shane & centaurs, 1.3k
   Harris does the tape measure TikTok trend on the Centaurs, and he learns more than he ever wanted to know. But at least the internet seems to love it.
Letâs stay professional by jumpsuit_en (jumpsuit), ilya/shane & centaurs, 2.8k
   Calling your own spouse a coward in public takes nerve. Goading a three-time Stanley Cup champion takes another kind. Ilya Rozanov is the only player capable of unlocking both achievements in one breath. Or: Shaneâs first day on the Ottawa Centaurs, and Ilya supporting him in his unique way.
Washed Up, Irrelevant by lavery, ilya/shane & centaurs, 1.3k
   âThe third player.â Shane clarified, âIn the big three of active players? I mean itâs me and Ilya, right?â Amelia nodded mutely whilst Luca Haas, who had been asked the question, stared at Shane with wide eyes. âSo, whoâs the third?â Shaneâs face took on a contemplative look. âScott Hunter?â Amelia said with confusion. âHunter?â Shane looked surprised. âWhy?â Across the room Roz let out a bark of laughter.

Yuna Hollander stares at the diamond engagement ring in slight horror as her husband laughs silently next to her on the couch. Her five year old son stares back at her with his doe eyes on her other side.
âI'm sorry, sweetie,â she asks as calmly as possible, âdid you say a boy gave this to you?â
Or, a near lifetime from Yuna's eyes.
2. Jealous Hollanov Series (E)
A collection of unrelated fics featuring jealous hollanov because I don't think we can ever have enough of these mfkers being jealous.
You don't have to read them in any particular order.
3. You are Nothing (You are Everything) (M)
When one grows up as Ilya Rozanov has, it leaves its mark. In his case it was a voice inside his head that constantly reminded him, "You are nothing."
Shane Hollander, like everything else in Ilya's life, was determined to change that without even knowing.
4. Call out my name (when I kiss you so gently) (E)
Shane Hollander stares at the unfamiliar ceiling and begins to wonder exactly which domino effect has landed him in this position. When did his perfect day start to go off its hinges? What was the event that landed him in a bar on a Friday night and then in a stranger's bed?
More importantly, who is this aforementioned stranger?
Or, after an one night stand Shane Hollander forgets the name of the gorgeous Russian man making him blueberry pancakes the morning after. Upon finding out, Gorgeous Russian Man decides to remind Shane of his name among other things.
5. Eclipseborns: An Ember & Ice Retelling (E) [WIP]
"I will find you. In every lifetime, in every realm, in every possible confluence â I will find you and I will love you like I have loved you in all previous lifetimes. I give you my word, you and I, we will meet again, beloved."
A state of being beside oneself; emotional or spiritual displacement. Rapture, trance, or overwhelming awe in which ordinary self-awareness is suspended.
7. (Dis)Respectfully, I Disagree (T)
âIs captain's job to overcome all⌠factors. He got too full of himself. Never reached his real potential. Is shameful.â
Okay, this is bullshit. Shane shoots Ilya a look, and the fucker won't still look at him. He also doesn't react to Grigori's words like he's heard them before. Well Shane hasn't and he has a few points he'd like to make. He fucking done being polite. Because what the fuck?
âRespectfully, I disagree,â says Shane and instantly feels four pairs of eyes on him.
Or, when Shane meets Ilya's father at an event and hears him shittalk his son, he has a few things to say about it.
8. I save the boring for you (G)
âWhat about Svetlana?â
Shane's tone is cautious.
âShe's a very good friend. She has been there for me. Always,â Ilya admits. âBut I don't talk to her about the boring details of my life.â
âNo?â
âNo. I save the boring for you.â
9. Noelia (T)
A broken heart can recognize another broken heart from across the room.
â Yiddish proverb
Excerpt:
Noelia is the 8-year-old who comes to the Hollander-Rozanov residence wearing a bright yellow dress, two braids tied with red ribbons, and a pair of dirty white sneakers, with her mother Isabel one spring morning. Her mom is the cleaning lady Shane hired right after they moved into their new house in Ottawa.

Friends I have been absolutely feasting on the bounty of fics being poured into this fandom. One of my favourite parts of fandoms is fic recs, which I havenât seen many of yet, so I wanted to spread some love (and also keep track of all the fics Iâve read đ) so please enjoy the next few days of fic recs Iâll be posting. Also please tell me what youâre reading, too! â¨
đremember to kudos & comment on fics you read đ
đ wanna get stuck in your head by peculiarblue - 31k
Lessons in budget-friendly shopping, home decor, and resisting the urge to neatly combine all your situationshipâs shit into a drawer in your bedroom because you might be falling in love with him: a seven-ish step guide by shane hollander, who is so, so fucked
zannithinks: whew! This fic takes you on a journey through the years and really showcases their personal growth through wonderfully linked vignettes. The banter is witty and my heart is gooey
đ There have been threats by gsmaxwell - 27k
Shane wasnât stupid. He figured this was some kind of fucking cowardly tactic to keep him from being at the Games. Hopefully, thatâs all they wanted. If he just played nice, maybe this would all be over soon.
No one was coming.
Shane closed his eyes briefly.
No one, except maybe Rozanov.
- Shane is kidnapped before Sochi and no one but Ilya knows he's not where he's supposed to be
zannithinks: Oh goodness gracious! Not for the faint of heart, this fic is intense. I love it to pieces for diving into the possibilities of that single line from the show and weaving in a bit of Ilya's relationship with his culture/home and Shane's fortitude.
đ loving this body by beetlesandstars, kryptonian / @weteddie - 22k
Shane stares at the half-empty bottle of vodka on the coffee table. âYou suck.â
âI suck? I scored hat-trick! In your stupid body! I have not eaten in six hours, Hollander. I have not pissed. I have not laid down. I want to go home.âÂ
- the hollanov bodyswap fic.Â
zannithinks: a must-read! this seems like something a little out-there, but once you start reading it is perfection. Who knew the best way to sort shit out with your situationship was a bodyswap??
đ you can ebb and I can flow (and we'll take it slow) by foxjournals - 10k
He isnât sure how he got from point A to point B, but all he knows is suddenly he canât breathe.
Suddenly, heâs six feet under, water encasing his lungs as they shrivel and expand into nothing.
- Shane and Ilya get into a fight, and the only way out is through panicking / Shane uses a safeword in the middle of an argument
zannithinks: Another fantastic exploration of these two complex characters amidst an argument, and beyond that it shows how sometimes love isn't enough to make the bad things go away. This fic pokes at hollanov's imperfections and makes them put in the work.
đ you get me by some1_around - 10k
When a bunch of other NHL players interrupt him in a hotel gym during a conference, he is not surprised when they make fun of him, but he is surprised when Ilya asks him to teach them a few poses and they all go along with it.
âHoly shit, Hollander, waitâcan you suck your own cock?â
zannithinks: uuuuuh this is just hot as fuck, no shame. Bend that boy in half!
đ the hunterâs heart, the hunterâs mouth by makemegentle - 9k
Teasing: âCome on, then, Hollander. Crawl.â
On all fours, like a dog, like a bitch, Shane obeys. I want to be your pet, he thinks, wildly. I want to be your everything. I am an animal and I am yours. Nuzzle me and fuck me and tell me what to do, I don't care. If I am your dog, Ilya, then train me.
zannithinks: one of the best fics I've read. Exploring an authentic approach to bdsm with great care and humour along the way. Everyone should read this one, genuinely incredible
đ Everything he needs by CherryPie0 - 8k
Shane frowns. What's Hayden even talking about? âDon't have a girl,â he mumbles.
âShane,â Hayden says, his voice firmer now. âIâm gonna text Lily.â
- Shane gets drugged at a club. Ilya takes care of him.
zannithinks: if omegaverse isn't for you, this is a fantastic fic to get that 'accidental heat' vibes without the biological changes - who doesn't love a desperate needy Shane being healed with the power of Ilya's dick?
đ Our Captain, Their Problem by Bruja_oscura - 8k
Ilya Rozanov has a "tiny car accident" (his words). Shane Hollander has a full-scale, system-shutdown panic attack about it. Meanwhile, a horrified Hayden is praying for someone to throw him in a lake and tell him that this is all just a big joke...
zannithinks: Oh I adore this entirely. The emotional turmoil is balanced with excellent banter, and the pop into Hayden's POV was an extra sweet cherry on top
đ cause that's the love that i attract by REDRAGEOUSED / @redrageoused - 7k
Itâs maple-something. Sugar, shaped like leaves and it makes him smile a little. Shane would hate it, tease him about his lack of a âperformance dietâ like that means anything, and he would lick the taste off of Ilya's lips, which really, is all thatâs needed to cement the fact that he needs this candy. It is also so painfully Canadian. Russia at least does bear. They are cooler, objectively. Maple leaves are boring.
- 5+1 where Ilya rather likes Canadian gas stations. Shane only likes the coffee.
zannithinks: one of the best Ilya POV's I've read. Hands down.
đ give me your hurt if you need someone to blame by iittaliia - 6k
âWhat the fuck were you thinking putting me down as your emergency contact?â
âWhat?â Ilya blinked, the sudden change in atmosphere clearly having caught him off guard. âThat I want you here?â he said like it was obvious, like that would be reason enough to put everything they were and everything they had at risk.
- Shane thinks that being an emergency contact is an emergency.
zannithiinks: ok so you're all probably thinking I have a thing for argument fics - and you'd be right!! Especially when it comes to these to boys, because wow can you writers really showcase the ups and downs behind the glossy 'happily ever afters'. This fic in particular is a fricking fantastic look at the nauseating uncertainty brought on by disagreements that leave a couple in a limbo of confusion, guilt, and hurt. Don't worry, the comfort comes through in the end!
đ Don't Call Me a Stranger by bluebox_dragon - 2k
A fight over loading the dishwasher leads to Shane learning about about Russian diminutives, and the meaning of names.
zannithinks: I can't get enough of seeing these two idiots stumble into knee-deep shit and crawl their way out of it. I love seeing them navigate arguments and learn where the emotional bruises are in each other. A special place in my heart for the spotlight this puts on Ilya's culture and considerations for his lived experience of his relationship taking place in his second language.
this time with a bruise/pain kink section, because i accidentally accumulated them.
route 96 kansas explicit, 28k, ongoing. shane hollander blows his knee and his ice hockey career before it can truly start. he goes to collage instead, and meets nhl player ilya rozanov in a bar. it's not a happy fic, but by god do you need to read it anyway.
snapping at a butterfly teen, 2k, oneshot. shane thinks about things beyond hockey. it's not as clean-cut as it sounds. just a really good character exploration.
the best person to be stuck in an elevator with gen, 7k, oneshot. part of a series (all a good read!). yuna hollander did not anticipate getting stuck in a hotel elevator with her son's rival, ilya rozanov, but that's how the day is going anyway. he's not so bad.
mine to devour explicit, 5k, oneshot. they got a handle on the whole 'cursing players with pussies' thing back in 2007. supposedly. shane wakes up with one anyway, years later. ilya is very much delighted at his husband's newest addition.
chisel between my cheekbones explicit, 6k, oneshot. ilya wants to know what those other men did to shane, and he wants to know it firsthand. i love a possessive/jealous couple, if you couldn't tell.
cottaging explicit, 9k, oneshot. they fuck without a condom for the first time. shane is a very coach/trainer tinge of dom about it. have you seen those videos of men planking until failure? read this. read this if you haven't either.
malysh mature, 5k, oneshot. a woman comes forward, claiming to have had ilya rozanov's child in 2012. naturally, everyone is very calm about this. shane was ready to do some crimes in here and i support him every step of the way.
rule 69.3 - contact inside the goal crease gen, 2k, oneshot. shane hollander isn't a name known to ilya rozanov, but the metros' new goalie doesn't seem like anything special- at first. a short fic, but delicious with implications.
speak to us of clothes teen, 5k, oneshot. shane hollander hires a stylist. this is her pov. i cackled a little too much at that poor, poor shirt.
buzzer beater explicit, 8k, oneshot. shane doesn't particularly enjoy jerking off. ilya solves the problem- it happens on his say so, or not at all.
luxe explicit, 3k, oneshot. ilya fucks shane in and on one of his cars.
i wanna do (bad things with) you explicit, 3k, oneshot. to contrast that last one- hollanov fuck in shane's 'boring' car.
circle back season teen, 9k, oneshot. shane can travel to the future, sometimes. ilya finds this out when 18-year-old shane hollander visits them at the cottage.
not a lot, just forever gen, 1k, oneshot. part of a series. ilya peels the tangerines for shane, because he hates doing it. love is stored in the fruit, as they say. honestly i just love thoughtless little acts of domesticity.
aperol spritz teen, 2k, oneshot. part of a series. shane and rose hang out, and rose tries to get some gossip out of her friend; namely, why he looks like a man well-fucked.
subtle, ambiguous, and often unintentional mature, 3k, oneshot. shane hollander tries to get through an ad shoot. the microaggressions make it hard.
i only see it when you show me explicit, 7k, oneshot. not partners with the previous fic, but works very well read back-to-back. shane unloads some of his stress on ilya. in the wise words of this fic's tags, 'explaining racism to your white boyfriend actually goes well for once'.
the prayers we covered in dust explicit, 7k, oneshot. for years, ilya tries not to be possessive of shane hollander. he fails, mostly.
small serendipity gen, 3k, oneshot. shane gets lost in the airport when he's seven. a nice russian woman helps him find his parents again.
i'll hold you through the storm gen, 2k, oneshot. a snowstorm upsets shane's routine, making him and ilya stay over at his parents'. ilya helps.
inside mature, 2k, oneshot. the fact that ilya can't crawl inside of shane's skin to be a single organism is pretty fucked up at best and ilya's personal hell at worst. again. i LOVE possessiveness.
Impact play/bruise section
hit me hard and soft explicit, 6k, oneshot. ilya slapping shane's face sparks a realization, and then immediately after, a whole lot more. what it says on the cover, boss. slapping.
handle with care explicit, 5k, oneshot. shane hollander, slowly falling into the knowledge that he's been ruined for anyone else. impact play/cbt, pretty intense all around, but by god is it good.
and i want what i want explicit, 14k, oneshot. shane does poorly in a game- and he wants, needs, to be punished. ilya helps. spanking, degradation, and a lot of bruising.
hold a cut inside explicit, 8k, ongoing. let's mix the homoeroticism of hockey with the toxic masculinity, add a pain kink, and shake. out comes shane hollander. quite honestly, one of my favorite fics for its framing of hockey and sex and pain as mirrors of each other.

A treatise on second (and third) languages, homesickness, acceptance, Shane's struggle learning Russian, and the things people do when they care. Spoilers for âThe Long Gameâ
Day 90
Rated Mature
For the first few days, Shane ignored it. He thought he was going crazy, or stuck in some coma dream, or that he was being punished by God forâwell, you know. Either way, he thought: head up. Be good. Even if you never make it out of here, youâll know you tried your best to do it right.
Shane gets stuck. Ilya helps.
you'll be mine (and I'll be yours)
Rated E
Ilya hums, playing the card he's been considering for this entire conversation. âWe could make more interesting, yes? A bet.â
The reporter cuts in. âWhat about wearing the other playerâs jersey?â

Rated E

when the world sees (we run toward each other)
Rated E
One security camera. One leaked video. One choice that changes everything.
Ilya Rozanov loses his country, his team, and his shot at Olympic gold in a single night. But he doesnât lose Shane, and that makes all the difference.
A story about finding home in a person, not a place. About choosing love over legacy. And about winning the medal you never knew you needed, standing next to the one person who matters most.
Here are some delicious fics you should all read!!!
Keep it by baletgir
Teen And Up Audiences - Shane Hollander/Ilya Rozanov - Completed
Spoilers for the book The Long Game
Four times Shane wears something that belongs to Ilya, quietly and in private. Plus one time Ilya does the same, and everyone at Centaurs practice definitely notices.
Takes place during The Long Game, when their relationship is still secret.
Featuring: A sweatshirt, socks, Irina Rozanov's cross necklace, an Ottawa Centaurs hat, and a Montreal Voyagers shirt.
This is a delicious fic. Honestly, this fic just proves how amazing the Centaur team is.
The MILF Theory (And Why the Internet Got It Wrong) by pucksandpower
General Audiences - Shane Hollander/Ilya Rozanov - Completed
The internet has decided that Ilya Rozanov is absolutely, definitely, 100% banging a Hollander.
Theyâve got photo evidence. Multiple sightings. Instagram stories from the same cafĂŠ. The man stayed OVERNIGHT at the Hollander residence.
Itâs the most legendary power move in NHL history: seduce your rivalâs hot mom to assert dominance. Thereâs just one tiny problem with this theory. Ilyaâs fucking a Hollander, all right. Just ⌠not that one.
Or in which Ilyaâs boyfriend's mother keeps adopting him, the internet keeps assuming the worst, and Shane Hollander is having the worst month of his entire life. At least until he does something that breaks hockey forever.
This is tagged with Ottawa Centaurs, but they are not featured in this fic. This fic is set during Heated Rivalry. This is a sort of a fix it fic if you have read The Long Game. I wish the Montreal Voyagers were as nice as they are in this fic.

Teen And Up Audiences - Shane Hollander/Ilya Rozanov - Completed
Spoilers for the book The Long Game
Ten years after the scandal that shocked the hockey world, Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov sit down for their first interviews since retirement. Theyâre finally going on the record for an account of the biggest rivalry in hockey and the unprecedented love that unfolded over the seasons.
These interviews take place in several sessions and locations. Commentary and clips are placed in an order that makes sense for the narrative as we have come to understand it.
The formatting of this fic adds so much to the tone at the beginning. I feel like it immerses the reader a lot more. I am happy to see Shane and Ilya receiving all the love they deserve. Plus, this fic features their kids, and I am an absolute sap for kid fics.

Or;
Ilya proposes to Shane.
I know it says canon divergent, but the author's dedication to getting everything canon compliant does not go unnoticed. This is more of a fix-it fic rather than canon divergent in my opinion. I really like that this fic gives Ilya his moment.

Shane is grocery shopping for Ilya's visit to the cottage. He is maybe overpreparing. Just a little.
This fic is a short one, but I have re-read it so many times I think I have made up for that fact. The characterization of Shane is just so good. If I talk more about the fic, I will spoil it all, so please go and read it.

Three people have asked now so I wanted to share some fics I've been thinking about a lot lately!
For laughs:
Not a wife, or a girlfriend, but a secret third thing by @providing-leverage
4k. 3 chapters. Not Complete. I don't usually even read things until they're complete, but I am SO invested. You already know I'm here for chat fics, but this is such an insanely creative concept: Not-a-WAG group chat for people with complicated relationships to Boston players. I check all the time to see if there are new chapters, not trusting AO3 to email me soon enough when one drops. Come for the giggles, stay for the obscure hockey history facts!
Quick Shot by @ThePromptWasntThisLong (shredded_potato) (ao3 profile)
4k. Complete. Couldn't decide whether this is for laughs or for sexy times, because it's honestly both. Shane tries the internet's different strategies to improve his sexual stamina to varying degrees of success.
Game Changers SocMed Crack Fics series by @pumpkinprincess22
2.5k. 2 works. Complete? Good quick social media fics. Shane Hollander getting cancelled for his landlord era and Hayden Pike accidental bisexual.
the secret society of stick handlers series by gurlsrool (ao3 profile)
41k. 5 works. hopefully you are already on board with this. All the gay hockey men have a group chat. It's beautiful, I love it.
Ilya Rozanov- Harris's Worst Nightmare by @justbuckingaround
30k. 35 chapters. Not Complete, should never be complete. I have never once actually laughed out loud reading anything before this. I am so obsessed with Chaotic Ilya Rozanov. Bury me in him.
For cries:
#pissgate series by @lowkey_existential_despair (ao3 profile)
21k. 2 works. Complete? Ok this was really crazy. A really graphic sex video is leaked and shit hits the fan (we love these fics, yes?). Some combination of "how bad can we make this?" and "what if things got worse?" I've been thinking about this version of Shane for like weeks. I also want to give part 2 an honorable shout out because it is in my Hayden-Finds-Out Looney Tunes scenario bookmark tag (separate rec list for that hopefully soon)
walking through windows by @gorgeousundertow
38k. 8 chapters. Complete. Break my damn heart open, already. The All-Stars weekend conversation went badly and years later, Shane is getting married so Ilya crashes the wedding. HEA but it might break your heart in the meantime. (and a side of Haydenov friendship, as a treat)
calcified and useless (should i try and do it?) by @probablily
11k. Complete. I am typically not one for MPreg outside of fantasy/magic fandoms, but I AM one for Shane getting an abortion. The characters are so well done and I think about this one daily!
For sexy:
Craving Oblivion by @theroughestdraught
5k. Complete. Ilya sends a mean sex video to Shane during the Rose Landry era, and Shane sends one back. I'm putting it under sexy but stay for the drama
una absència que sacia, perseguint a la grà cia by @blanklier
2k. Complete. Ilya masturbates. That's it, that's the fic. It's so well written and detailed. Very good stuff. There's a second part for Shane, too.
Rating: A step below mature, but above teen
Work Tags: miscommunication, protective hayden pike, talks of abuse but no actual abuse!!

A/N: Hayden's in for a surprise soon...
âHayden,â Shane shifted on the couch again, âI appreciate it and I appreciate you and I appreciate Jackie, but Iâm going to need you to stop the sleuthing. Iâm ok, I really really am. Boston Lily and I are fine, Iâm fine, everything is fine and I mean that.â

Hayden had called Shane later that night asking for them to talk in person. He could tell Shane was nervous and he attempted to reassure him as much as he could that Shane hadnât done anything wrongâhe was just worried. They agreed to meet up the next day at Shaneâs cottage. Hayden could feel the nerves rolling off of Shane the moment he stepped in. Waving to Shane, the two moved to the couch similar to how Hayden had been discussing this with Jackie the night before, with Shane on one side and Hayden on the other.
âSo,â Shane said nervously, âWhat did you want to talk about? Is something wrong? Are weâŚok? Are you ok? Jackie?â
âYes, yes, Shane weâre fine. You havenât done anything and Jackie and I are fine. Iâm sorry that I was so cryptic over the phone but this didnât feel right to me to do over a phone call or texting,â Hayden leaned back, âIâve just been noticing some things and Iâm really worried about you.â
âNoticing some things?â Shane was still nervous, but a little less so now. The majority of his nerves were replaced with a look of confusion.
âShane,â Hayden sighed, âIâm just going to say it straight up. Youâve been coming to practice with all these bruises and Iâm worried. I know youâre about to tell me theyâre just game bruises, but Iâm sorryâI just donât believe you. Theyâre vibrant and all over you. Iâve seen you in the locker room. You have these dark purple bruises on your hips that look like handprints and these thumb bruises on your wrists.â
Shane looked to the side and honestly that worried Hayden more, âHaydenâŚwhat are you saying?â
âIâm just saying that I think something is going on. Iâm worried, Jackie is worriedâsheâs seen them tooâand we both love you and just want you to be ok. I donât want to be overbearing at all, but Iâve just been seeing this for so long and Iâm worried. Not just as your teammate, but as your friend.â
âHayden, I promise you that Iâm ok,â Shane shifted on the couch, âI really do just bruise easily. Itâs nothing serious.â
âThat leads me to my final point,â Hayden nervously fidgeted, âThese only ever happen when weâre playing Boston. And you go to see Boston Lily. Whenever you come back from seeing her, youâre super bruised. Sometimes even limping.â
Shane looked like a deer in headlights, âHayden, Lilyâs not like that.â
âItâs ok to ask for help Shane. Me, Jackie, the team, and your parentsâweâre all in your corner. If Lilyâs hurting you-â
âSheâs not hurting me, Hayden. I promise you.â
âI beg to differ, Shane! Some areas of your skin are practically purple. Youâre wincing a lot and again with that limp.â
âNothing is happening!â
âYou donât have to do that, Shane. You donât have to do what she says.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âDefend her. If sheâs hurt you and coached you into saying something in case someone like me found out. You donât have to defend her hitting you-â
âHayden, Iâm not being hit. I genuinely just bruise easily, thatâs it and thatâs all. Iâm not being coached, Iâm not being hurt, I am fine!â
âIs it because Lilyâs a girl?â Haydenâs heart was slowly breaking. Shane was going to bat for Lily even though she clearly wasnât treating him right, âAbuse doesnât just have to be a guy on a girl. Anybody can have things happen to them.â
âYou think Iâm being abused? And you think Lilyâs the one doing it?â
âDo you deny it?â
âItâs not abuse, Hayden. What we have isnât abuse, because there isnât anything and Iâm fine.â
âThatâs what it looks like, Shane. Thatâs what it looks like,â Hayden took a sip of water, âYouâre an adult and Iâm not trying to get in your business, but Iâm worried about your safety with her.â
âIâm not in an abusive relationship!â Hayden saw the panic on Shaneâs eyes. Relationship? Since when?
âYouâre dating Boston Lily?â
âNoâyes. Ok, sort of? I donât know, just nothingâs happening Hayden please.â
âIâm sorry Shane, I donât believe you,â Hayden said concernedly, âYou donât deserve this Shane, please.â
âNothing is happening, I swear. SheâsâŚsheâs good to me.â
âGood to you? Shane, these bruises are bad!â
âI know how it looks, but itâs just not that. Itâs nothing. Iâm not being hit or abused or anything of the matter. I havenât been coached to say anything or do anythingâIâm happy. Iâm ok.â
âHayden,â Shane shifted on the couch again, âI appreciate it and I appreciate you and I appreciate Jackie, but Iâm going to need you to stop the sleuthing. Iâm ok, I really really am. Boston Lily and I are fine, Iâm fine, everything is fine and I mean that.â
âAgain, you donât have to defend her Shane! This isnât ok. What if something worse happens to you?â
âNothing like that is going to happen. Because no one is hurting me.â
âShane-â Shane gave Hayden a look signaling for him to drop it and Hayden just did, sitting back a bit deflated. This confrontation did not go how he thought it would and if anything, Shaneâs insistence on everything being âfineâ did everything but convince Hayden that Shane was ok. But for now, heâd relent. It was clear that Shane wasnât going to budge so he decided to leave it. They turned on a documentary, the tension in the atmosphere over their conversation slowly dissipating.
One thing was clear from this meeting: someone was hurting Shane and whoever was doing it had clearly conditioned him to believe that it was okâor something of the sort. It was probably going to be a matter of time before something more severe happened and Hayden wasnât about to let it get that far. But for now, heâd hang out on Shaneâs couch and watch TV with him. He could brainstorm in his head on what to do next.
