I love your open relationship au so much, I love your sandbox, thank you for letting us play in it 🙏💜
(FUCK YOU BRIAN WE ARE SO CLOSE IM SO EXCITED)
All of that said I now can't stop thinking about the childhood frenemies au and just how funny it would be to me if it went so far that they get into the nhl, they go their separate ways, Shane stops having girlfriends so Ilya will stop fucking them and then eventually gets a girlfriend just so she'll cheat on him with Ilya bc he misses his best friend... They break up and maybe there's another girlfriend idk but then there's Rose and she is having none of this lmfao
Ilya sees them dancing in that club and goes up to them to try to "annoy" Shane/"steal" Rose and Rose just nopes out of there lmao and tells Ilya he's more obvious than Miles
(also what is Svetlana doing this whole time? I'm assuming Ilya moved to Canada as a kid... Irina lives??? Anyway the concept of Sveta being Ilya's childhood friend who either Shane knows too or Ilya reconnects with her after moving to Boston and they fuck sometimes and Shane is just so mad about this lmao but he never examines why ofc)
You have such a beautiful brain thank you for blessing us so often 💜
Shane getting a girlfriend just so she'll cheat on him with Ilya!!!! because he misses his best friend!!! anon i want to kiss you on the mouth
Rose being the breaking point in every universe, this time because she has too much self-respect to go along with their weird courtship ritual bullshit.
I haven't quite figured out the finer details but yeah I picture this as an Irina lives AU. She moves to Canada with her sons while they're still very young but she's still married so Ilya's dad is this looming, threatening presence in their lives. I haven't figured out how Sveta fits in but I want her to be there!
