Ok I'm gonna say it. I know its what happens in the books, but the central conflict of S2 besing Ilya wanting to come out while Shane isnt ready to is just. No. What? Unless theres a decent time skip, Ilya wont have been in Canada long enough to already have PR much less citizenship. If he doesnt have a passport other than Russian, coming out wont just be carrier ending it will be life ending. How tf is he gonna be out and proud with Shane if he's getting extradited? Queer asylum visas are harder for bisexuals, and theres no guarantee the asylum would come before the extradition. Hell, if I were in Shane's position I would read it as pressure to get married, because marriage is the only way Ilya can be out and also not be in danger without at least a PR to secure him.
