SPACE, the shiniest place

Imagine having a post that has about 60 notes after 2 months then it gets hit with “posts that have 10k to me” twice within 40 minutes

A typical migraine for him will start with moderate pain and nausea, but then his body does what mine does- it makes him dissociate from his body. His first season with the Metros he practically gets a migraine on every roadie that requires flying. Which was the most his body had ever dealt with, so it just sorta.... shut itself off. If he was stressed he would know it was a migraine as he has been dealing with that trigger for his whole life. But for plane induced ones he didn't know to use his coping mechanisms so his body would just peace out. This really added to his "cool detached" image the first couple years.

Shane almost never gets a migraine when Boston is in Montreal, but it can be pretty iffy when hes at an away game. He's never canceled a hook up due to a migraine, but when he does get one he leaves a lot faster than normal, which always confuses Ilya because it doesn't really line up with game performance or location or anything else.

I am a sucker for migraine reveal during the tuna meltdown. I am undecided if Shane has a migraine before he gets there, it triggers after their nap, or if he doesn't have one but has to tell ilya he doesn't want pickles on his tuna melt because the salt might trigger a migraine. All are delicious options to me, but I am also very partial to Ilya seeing his first migraine at the cottage.

Shane is pissed because ok yeah coming out to his parents was stressful, but not migraine trigger stressful. And its ruining his sexcation. Now he has to lie down in a dark room with an ice pack over his eyes and also use his weird head massager thing that look stupid and unxey. He can't even invite Ilya into his curative shower because he turns up the heat so hot he can barely stand it and he sits on the floor of the shower, also with the lights off. (these are all my go to migraine cures)

Lucky for Shane, there is one more cure that works for me and many other migraine sufferers- orgasms (specifically vibrator orgasms). Ilya is actually the one who discovers this and when he does he buys a prostate massager for the express purpose of migraine cure.

(I had a very bad migraine today and this was the only thing that kept me from crying)

first of all sorry for your migraine today!

second of all, the fluff potential of shane waking up from the nap with a migraine and ilya truly getting to fucking FULL SEND this "i could be such a good boyfriend" audition is delicious.

third of all, adore when these boys can get up to freak shit (affectionate).

When I turned 17, we ordered a cake at the grocery store for my party, as we’d done many times before. If you wanted something written on the cake you’d write it into a section of the order form. We requested, very simply, “Happy Birthday Courtney”. When we went to pick it up the day of the party, this is what we got.

The bakery employees had absolutely no explanation for this. The order form, attached to the box, very clearly did not contain any of those extra names. Whomever had done the writing was no longer in, so there was no one to ask how this had happened. The fact that the name ‘Juan’ is misspelled bewilders me to this day. (I’ve never seen ‘Miley’ without the E, either, but it’s believable that someone might spell it that way.) Did this cake slip in from an alternate universe where I’m one quarter of a set of Hispanic quadruplets? Dyslexic Hispanic quadruplets, maybe?

This cake became the focal point of my party. At least two of my friends regularly called me ‘Courtney Mily Jaun Pablo’ for years to come. My siblings and I still reference it sometimes, eleven years later. It is probably the funniest thing ever to occur at any birthday celebration of my life, and may well remain so for the rest of my days.

No One Like You

now, it took us a while to realise it meant "(there is) no one like you". at first, we all parsed it as a botched "no one like(s) you"

but it does make me laugh to imagine that like. he still likes the comfort and routine of A Warm Beverage In The Morning, especially to have to take with him to the rink since he'll be out in the cold. so he will have hot broth in his travel mug and just sip it like a coffee.

which is all well and good until ilya (who was taking care of anya) didn't actually see that shane didn't put coffee in his mug the way he did ilya's one of their first mornings in the season, so he doesn't want to bother getting up for his in the locker room, grabs shane's instead (because also to Lovingly Annoy), only to take a sip and fucking GAG because he was expecting unsweetened coffee not whatever the FUCK he just got pranked with.

"shane!! what the fuck is in here!"

"bone broth???"

"WHY ARE YOU DRINKING SOUP, SHANE?"

"who told you to drink *my* drink??"

"THIS IS NOT A DRINK, HOLLANDER. YOU ARE DRINKING *SOUP*!"

"it's not soup! it's broth!"

"is a TRICK!! why is this in a coffee cup, shane???"

*eyeroll* "just because it's CALLED a coffee mug doesn't mean-"

meanwhile the other players are just ??? you guys okay??? not knowing yet that they WILL manage to find a way to fuck about this later, don't worry.

it also means that the cutesy matching really nice travel mugs they get from rose as a playful christmas gift means ilya is now CONSTANTLY watching which one is his each morning.

he will NOT get surprise souped again.

and i'm laughing about ilya feeling absolutely BETRAYED the first time anya hops off of his lap to trot after shane up to their room

his OWN DAUGHTER-

ilya, she just likes our bed and knows i'm going up

-TO BETRAY HIM LIKE THIS, AFTER EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE-

dude, you could also just come upstairs if you're that fucking bothered about it

-NO LOYALTY IN THIS HOUSE. NONE. ALL AROUND HIM ARE TRAITORS-

ilya trying to tell himself he wants to stay down on the couch and not give shane the satisfaction of giving in but also experiencing MAJOR fomo because the rest of his family is already upstairs for the night

His team knows because he had a rash during a roadie in his rookie year because he was allergic to the airplane blanket

He tried to check the tags on some of Shane's things but he cuts them out, so it's a guessing game if he'll be fine or not. The only things that have tags are the sheets but Ilya refuses to be weird and check them.

His teammates know when he visits Jane because she's the only one he'll stay long enough to risk getting a rash (he always gets a rash)

Shane starts to suspect at some point and starts buying hypoallergenic towels, sheets, everything he can think of.

Shane doesn't realize that if you're allergic to that fabric, you will be allergic to it even if it's hypoallergenic.

Ilya keeps quiet until the cottage when he realizes that he has to either fess up or wash his allergen free clothes with Shane's and end up with shed fibers in his underwear (rashes in his dick are neither sexy nor good for sex)

Shane introduces Ilya to his parents, "this is my mom Yuna, and my dad David." Parrot: "I'm David, shanebug".

"Hollander, your father is bird?"

CACKLING imagining one of the early days of ilya over for dinner in ottawa for the first time and calling out "david?" and just *tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap* "hiiiiiiii baby" as the bird answers the call

and ilya likes animals and is still trying to make a good impression, so he picks the bird up, goes into the kitchen with him because he can hear movement in there, but before he can actually say hi, this parrot just loudly "SNACK BITCH! :D" because that's david's flock call atp

which means ilya and shane only needed one (1) lesson on making SURE the door was shut before having sex because winnie busted through like she was on a raid.

The Fates, in myth, weave threads of life. This performance gave the fates a red string. In Doubt Comes In, the moment Orpheus turned around, they cut the string and used the two halves to pull Eurydice back to Hades and to hold Orpheus back from going to her. And, more than that, Orpheus didn't sing her name. He screamed it.
