Hubris, heresy, hyperfixation

nothingggg is more ilya than the tampa hotel room sequence where shane comes out, ilya acts like a dick while keeping himself physically as far from shane as possible, shane gets his feelings hurt and starts looking a little chin-wobbly, and ilya audibly GROANS and flings himself across the room to sit next to him on the bed. but he’s still not looking at shane or touching him because ilya is NOT here to comfort him or anything ok he just randomly and totally unrelatedly got tired of standing up at the exact moment that shane’s big brown eyes started getting all wet and shiny with tears and the nearest place to sit down happened to be on the bed next to shane. do NOT read anything into this as none of this means ANYTHING (in under two minutes he will be crying in shane’s arms btw)

love that we are all entirely in agreement that 1) shane is out there spontaneously inventing new kinks and 2) the first kinks he invents are cnc and free use. like hoo boy [slaps shane’s thigh] this baby can fit so much profound ambivalence around bodily autonomy + confusion about where the other ends and the self begins + unvoiced longing to cede control to an aggressor-savior who in enacting his depraved sexual desires upon your passive body fulfills your deepest most monstrous needs while ensuring you are never forced to acknowledge those needs out loud

Shane ‘I can’t always understand the most basic of social cues and subtext’ Hollander meets Ilya ‘I can’t talk about emotions earnestly or plainly without being obtuse because it’s never been safe for me’ Rozanov and we wonder why they were in the most heartbreaking situationship for like nearly a decade

Post-outing and post- honeymoon pre-season Hollanov step out and are photographed for the first time in Ottawa featuring Shane— white t-shirt pre-season muscles bulging gray sweatpants dick outline healthy yes he's wearing his reeboks Mom and Ilya— decked out in TIGht Adidas track pants with the snaps black tank top clinging to that waist with Anya on a bedazzled leash— YES they're holding hands rings glinting in the golden hour YES they have their dog at this outside restaurant seating YES they're going to win this season YES Shane will have dessert and will give the first bite to his husband YES they're dropping a black card in the bill YES they're kissing each other's hands at the table and in a way it's kind of like Diana in her revenge dress except their best revenge is just living their best fucking life TOGETHER

My Shane is an enabler. He’s gonna roll his eyes and tell ilya to fuck himself, but he loves that shit. He’s icing Ilya injuries after a fight barely hiding the fact that he found it funny. He’s providing information for chirps. He’s joining in on the fun cause he loves his husband. Idk man I just don’t think Shane, who fell in love with the NHLs biggest asshole is gonna be annoyed when he’s being an asshole.

Ilya turning down hot fresh coked up hole & then turning around to look at Shane’s emotional check in text message like okay dude keep avoiding that
