shane hollander shame thesis

and what if i said that the rooftop fight in episode 1 lays the groundwork for the dynamics that we'll see in the boxing day fight. ilya going through something hard and serious with his family/depression and not saying it to shane, so that shane thinks the fight is about the immediate problem (him winning rookie of the year/them going to bood's party). and ilya getting getting mad at shane for not understanding, but only saying a tiny sliver of the truth (not everything is about you, hollander/i have no one). shane trying to ask about it, but getting agitated (so what is it then?/could you please explain what the fuck is happening?). and shane saying something pissy bc he feels so upset (all you do is beat me. i win one fucking thing, and you can’t even show your face/uh, fuck you. sorry i still want to win cups instead of smoking weed with my teammates between losses). hashtag the troubles have always been there and that's the good shit to me. so much to learn but they still love each other <3

post-retirement Ilya goes on dancing with the stars and wins

ilya likes roleplay because in his heart if hearts he want to do improv its the closest way u as a jock can get to doing improv like this is a tragedy really

shane likes roleplay because when he was a kid none of the other kids listened to him when they played house and he would be like NO YOU HAVE TO BE THE BROTHER BECAUSE SHES ALREADY THE DAD I DONT MAKE THE RULES I JUST ENFORCE THEM and now he has a husband that will listen to him blindly and do whatever he says

when Shane is actively out of the closet and men try to hit on him in his mind he is turning them down politely by being like I’m married! Sorry! but in reality he is single handedly giving these men body image issues that will not be resolved in their lifetime. Some guy voice here’s my number, yknow, in case you ever get bored ;) (gesturing to Shane’s wedding ring) and Shane, after laughing out loud, is like. Do you see… there he is. You see that guy over there? the actual marble sculpture come to life, yea. That’s my husband. Look at that man and ask me if I get bored. Look at yourself and ask me if you think I need your number. please be serious. and then goes back to Ilya where he plays dumb about getting flirted with (who? That guy at the bar? He was just being nice!) so that ilya gets jealous enough to end the night early and take him home (he does in fact do a cunty lil wave to the guy on their way out the door)

connor’s ilya hair lets all live

i do not really understand the fanon desire to make shane out to be a "bad captain" like firstly what does that even mean and secondly. why

i’m remembering here that shane canonically plays better after he’s dicked down. so can you imagine what this motherfucker can do in ottawa centaurs by cock alone?

i do believe when carter vaughan was in the third grade he thought he was gay

And his uncle was

And he kept his room straight

He told his mom, tears rushing down his face

She said Carter you’ve loved girls since before pre k
