#(you pick)

Explanation: This is inspired by the system in flamingllama’s Gotta Have Some Faith in the Sound, which you should check out if you enjoy Alpha Shane being absolutely pathetic for Omega Ilya. I don’t usually mess with Omegaverse (I am in all honesty rather scared of it), but the premise for this is that Ilya and Shane meet at fifteen in a hockey camp where they barely speak but are immediately insane about each other (in another life they are absolutely U-Haul lesbians) and then Shane presents as Alpha and goes further insane when Ilya does not turn up for the World Junior Championships at seventeen. Cue Shane resolutely refusing to buy an Omega (He does not know Ilya is an Omega, he just can’t fathom being with anyone without knowing what happened to him), which are largely treated as livestock, something to be bought, sold, and used, not to be seen as an actual partner, and eventually the combination of not being around any Omegas (both his parents are Betas) while being surrounded by a metric ton of Alphas fucks with his hormone levels to the extent where it starts to impact his ability to play hockey, so he has to find a solution. His initial plan is to buy a woman and treat it as a roommate situation, he but happens upon Ilya and has a whole “wait a minute, I know that annoying fucker whose face has haunted me for literal years” moment. He then, to the suspicion of all the workers at the Omega Facility, demands to get Ilya despite him having a history of being uncooperative and outright hostile to his owners (a fact which delights Shane because it means that fiery boy who was the only one who could outpace him on the ice is still in their under layers of scars and trust issues.) It takes a while, but Ilya eventually grows to trust and even love him (it helps that he still remembers the talented, beautiful, slightly pathetic Canadian boy from all those years ago whose freckles are somehow even cuter that he remembered.) Finally, they reach a point where they are as insanely in love with each other as they are in canon, and, to the knowledge of only a few, Shane is a pathetic Alpha who folds like a lawn chair the second Ilya pouts his big blue eyes at him. It also need to be stated that Ilya is equally pathetic and the only way he can win an argument is if he is facing away from Shane because when frustrated, Shane’s nose scrunches up and coupled with his freckles that is just TOO MUCH, Ilya is only human. Shane is a bottom.
