Shane: *sounds progressively more Russian during a conversation*

Ilya, thinking Shane’s making fun of him: that fucking asshole?

Ilya: neveroyatnyy

Shane, whispering in a perfect Russian accent: ✨neveroyatnyy✨

Ilya, clearly wasn’t supposed to hear that: ????!!

Ilya drops several Russian curses while they fuck once, and Shane just moans them right back. (Maybe Ilya fucks Shane three ways to Sunday afterward, and maybe he starts speaking Russian more during sex, but that is NO ONE’S business!)

Shane speaking to JJ during warm-ups: *unconsciously copying his accent*

Ilya, eavesdropping: No, that’s our thing >:(

Shane has genuine difficulty staying quiet and not echoing when Ilya gives his monologue over the phone, but he thinks it would upset Ilya if he did. (And Ilya will never admit it, but each time he said “I love you” in Russian, he hoped Shane would say it back in his little echo, even if he knew Shane didn’t mean it. (He would.))

Shane in the hospital, high as a kite, in a Russian accent: bye bye :)

Ilya, heart eyes 15000%: fuck this, fuck you, nurse I am having heart attack

(they don't realise that this is a middle school annual tournament for kids and not the NHL playoffs)

Both writers and readers have probably noticed formatting inconsistencies when reading fics on Ao3. Who wants to work hard for weeks or months on a fic, only to have it reveal distracting formatting issues with extra spacing, italics, or punctuation once it’s published? Nobody we know! So we thought we’d put together some tips to prevent this annoying problem, which usually arises from transferring work from Microsoft Word or Google Docs to Ao3.

Extra paragraph spacing can be prevented by adjusting the line spacing setting in Word or Google Docs before you start writing.

If using Microsoft Word: The default style for a new “Blank” document in Word includes a 10pt. space after a paragraph break. If you are not sure how your document is formatted, just open your document. From the “Home” tab, you will see the styles in the menu at the top. Make sure “Normal” is highlighted. When you start typing, then hit “enter” for a paragraph break, a space will appear in between your paragraphs so you won’t have to hit enter twice, and no empty paragraphs will be brought over to Ao3.

If using Google Docs: Make sure your line spacing settings for your document are set to ‘Insert Break After Paragraph.” This will make it so that every time you hit “enter” to move to a new paragraph, it will insert space automatically for you. This means you shouldn’t hit enter twice when starting a new paragraph. This will prevent extra paragraph spacing when moving to Ao3. Find this setting in the “Format” menu, under “Line Spacing.”

If You Have Already Started:

If you already have your work partially or completely written, you will need to locate the extra paragraphs (created by extra “enters” to create space between your paragraphs) and delete them, so they don’t carry over and show up in Ao3. 

Here is a post describing how to remove empty paragraphs from Word if you have already written your fic. These instructions show you how to make the coding visible so you can delete extra paragraph spaces.

If working in Google Docs, you can copy your document into Word and follow the above instructions.

Will stop, your eyes are too bunny, your love is way too pure, your presence ignored, your character was put aside, your narrative too doomed, they never gave you the love you deserved, they always used you, they kill you Will.

Mike stop, your eyes are too puppy, your character too complex, your ending too unfair, they misunderstood you, they took away your feelings, they made you hollow, they kill you Mike.

and then he just.... did?

This is Money Snake. She only appears every 312 years. 

No accusations can be made about them throwing games for each other, because there are several videos of them being super competitive about absolutely nothing. For example, one of the dumped files is a video of the two playing Monopoly (filmed discretely from a hallway). They look about ready to murder each other. And then, off-screen, Yuna's voice - in a Mom Voice TM, of course - calls, "Boys, you better not be doing what I think you are!"

Ilya says, "Nyet, Mama," at the same time Shane says "No, Mom!" And in perfect sync they hide evidence of the game, not a single movement between them wasted.

There's also a video of them trash talking each other for being slow as they race to put away the most clean dishes from the dishwasher.

It's a whole genre. Play-fighting as they bring out a measuring tape to literally measure who shoveled the most snow from the driveway, bringing up hockey stats as they argue over who deserves to hold the tv remote, etc.
