why are they drip-feeding us the pwhl expansion one by one i feel like a rat with the intermittent cocaine lever
the swiss hockey team isn't even like enjoying it unlike the sf giants' outfielders who had so much fun with it. booooo
LMAO i love that everyone is like THE SWISS BOYS ARE BEING TOO PERFUNCTORY ABOUT THE SIMULATED FUCKING. here's the thing though, there's something narratively interesting about that... in my mind i'm creating a winner's room...
okay imagine shane & ilya pitted against each other from the start, trading who the forfeit is back and forth every time they play each other, and it's been like handjobs & blowjobs their whole rookie year but ilya is On A Mission the whole time (getting hollander to ask to be fucked in the ass), a multiyear journey that culminates in a frankly too sweet for a winner's room anal. and THEN before shane can process any of this he gets ghosted.
imagine before the draft lottery all the draft projections were like, hollander and rozanov are both so fucking good but hollander is canadian and the bottom two teams are montreal & ottawa so he's got a slight edge. then boston sitting at fifth wins the lottery and rozanov is obviously the right fit for boston, everybody knows that. shane hollander sitting with the increasingly certain knowledge that he didn't do anything wrong but he's going to get drafted second anyway. hockey's never been fair. he loves it so much and it never loves him back. a fucking lottery.
the other thing about rookies i'm thinking this morning is "montreal is nice, yes?"/"yeah, it's awesome" like shane is a BOY and he just got drafted by a canadian team. his mother's team, the team that made her feel canadian. he answers so easy. he's gonna live in this city for a decade. he's going to win cups for this city. he's going to fall in love & have his heart broken & find out who he is in this city, and then ultimately in the end he's going to have to leave because he couldn't be perfect. you're an awesome player to watch. yeah, it's awesome. something beautiful shane wants to make a part of him, and he gets one but he doesn't get to have both.

at the 2010 prospect cup when grigori is telling ilya that he has to beat him, he has to win over hollander, and then you're able to recontextualize their first meeting a year earlier as ilya seeing someone who was only an enemy & realizing he's a boy, the same as him, and winning which had previously been a duty becomes something fun
i just read your little ficlet speed limit and it is actually very funny how easy it would be for them to just buy or rent a random house in some small town half way point. like not even as a fuck condo they could spend several days a week together when they don’t have games! and even driving an hour to the stadium for a game is hardly anything! ilya’s house in boston is probably an hour outside of the city lol. so much of the tlg conflict could be fixed by a very small purchase by two very rich people !!
scream TO BE FAIR. i haven't read the long game but i imagine the problems are more than just geographical? such as:
82-game schedule is horrific, their road trips aren't always gonna line up, they DON'T actually have a ton of time together and it sucks!!! they spent so long clawing out time for each other and it feels like things should have changed now they've figured things out but they're still fighting for scant hours out of weeks
ilya moved away from his social support system & in ottawa he can't fucking talk to his teammates without lying to them. so why'd you come to ottawa, roz? you doing anything tonight, my wife and i would love to have you for dinner. like shane was always a part of ilya but in ottawa he's almost all of it, so ilya (a hugely social animal) has to stay unknowable!!!
the hockey is the sex but now it's bad hockey? obviously shane doesn't only love ilya when he's winning cups, but this is such an interesting stress to put on a relationship which was built on competing with the only other person who can keep up with you (who can understand you!!!). does ilya think he's still lovable when he's not able to succeed? does shane feel guilty for putting ilya into this position? presumably they are not having frank & honest conversations about this because they are, unfortunately, hockey players
but also the sex is the sex. wait can i say something. if ilya loves being in control during sex because it contrasts so starkly with how he doesn't have control outside of sex then the sex has to be SPECTACULARLY intense while ottawa keeps losing games. sorry i just imagined it and blacked out.
IN CONCLUSION i don't think a halfway house would solve all their problems but they should still have one because ilya needs some place to edge shane for six hours until he cries. (he doesn't get to come before they both need to leave for their respective roadies & the last thing ilya says before he kisses shane goodbye is "don't touch yourself on the trip.")
okay i've pulled the trigger & signed up for the hollanov summer exchange, everybody sign up & come play with meeee
i feel like wedding djs update their setlist like once a decade... what do you think ilya rozanov was subjected to as he attended the weddings of at least five boston raiders 2011-2018

A moment I love in the book that wasn’t in the show (but possibly in the next season) is when Shane and Ilya are lying in bed and Shane is fidgeting with Ilya’s cross and they talk about religion for a bit. Then when Ilya admits that the cross was actually his mother’s, Shane instantly stops fidgeting with it and lays in gently on Ilya’s chest.
Such a tender little detail.
alskdid ok this is very sweet but unfortunately i have bad priorities so: do you think if shane knew, the dead mom of it all would prevent shane from taking the cross between his teeth at some point while they're fucking face to face
do you guys think they went skinnydipping in the lake at the cottage
scream @hellotheblackframe this is perfect
“Oh my god, Ilya, the Morrisons have, like, a dozen grandchildren. What if they—” “Do not have panic attack, Shane: all good Canadian children are asleep in bed, not spying on neighbors.” “They sold me this land, the Morrisons. When they heard I wanted to build. They know my parents.” “So they are one hundred years old then, like Scott Hunter? Probably blind like him, too. They do not see us in the dark.” “Scott Hunter’s not—” “Shane, let us not talk about Scott Hunter now, yes? If you are scared, if you are frightened like little chicken, I will understand. You can just say, ‘Ilya, I cannot be so brave like you, I am—” “Shut up! I said I’d do it, didn’t I? But I’m leaving my water shoes on.” “You look at me like I will fight you about this Hollander, but you wear socks to bed and I do not complain. Ugly plastic shoes are not so sexy like little socks, but still—” “My socks are not—whatever. Keep your voice down. It’s just that the lake bed’s all...squishy.” “Squishy is real English word?” “Yeah, it means—oh, fuck! Jesus, Ilya, it’s freezing! Holy shit! You said it wasn’t so bad all the way in.” “Maybe I lied about this, a little.” “Yeah, no fucking kidding. What are you…?” “Warming you up. Is okay?” “Oh. Uh, okay. Oh, wow: look, you can see Cassiopeia. Like, the whole thing!” “Where is?” “Well, that’s the north star, above that big tree, and then if you a little farther over—uhm, hey, did you actually want to learn? Or just kiss?” “Tonight? Just kiss, I think.”

keep thinking about how much ilya loves his father like. he is so tender with him. in sochi when he reminds his father they'll go meet the minister, where presumably he'll be blamed for losing all over again. the summer of giving him meds and then taking the pill bottles away. the note in his voice when he tells alexei he got a text asking for him to bring home bread.
gf has started playing fe3h but she picked the black eagles & now keeps asking me questions like "should i recruit felix" which is dealing me so much psychic damage

low stake prompt: beach day 🌊☀️
this isn't either of these things but it's not NOT, if u squint
------
"I can't believe you just decided not to go," Shane says.
"Oh, you can't?" Ilya pats Shane's knee. Checks the clock. "It's time for ice again, yes?"
"I can get it."
"Don't be stupid, I'm the one with working knees." There are displeased crinkles above Shane's nose; Ilya leans over to kiss them and stands up. "You want anything else?"
"Yeah, to get off this fucking couch."
Shane Hollander has a 55.4% faceoff win percentage. He shoots left. He has a freckle on his right ankle, where Ilya's thumb fits into the hollow of his Achilles' tendon; and he's a terrible patient. It's a new, tender thing to discover, and Ilya grins into the empty kitchen, exultant with it.
ok this might be a dumb question but in your Wolf AU during the team gangbangs what are all the rest of the guys doing when one of them is fucking shane? are they kinda wrestling like the wolves? or are they just standing like 🧍♂️🧍♂️🧍♂️🧍♂️ (which picturing is kinda killing me lol)
oh my god thank you for this incredibly funny question. i think there's probably a little bit of pecking order jostling as the wolves fight it out/decide who's gonna go next but there's also a lot of standing around not looking at each other because (importantly) they are all hard. there's some furtive jerking off. honestly homosocial denial is so powerful i could see some guys sitting on the benches being like so... how was that game last night while shane's getting fucked on the other side of the room. they're not looking that way out of respect but when there's a lull in the conversation they can still hear it. it's definitely not gay though don't worry about it
