    Summary

    “Ilya, are you deflecting because YOU don’t want to go?” The brown eyes Ilya folded for every time narrowed, flashing from pleading to suspicious in an instant. “C’mon, it would be so nice to just be in real nature for a bit.”

    Okay, fine. Ilya did not want to go. As much as he loved their team, he did not want to share his precious summertime with Shane paddling around a lake like some kind of 1800s fur trader. And frankly, he did not want to find out what constituted “real” nature in Shane’s mind.

    Or: When Shane insists they partake in the annual Centaurs canoe trip, Ilya wants no part in it. Throughout the trip though, Ilya gets to reflect on all the ways he and Shane have grown individually, together, and by being well-loved by their team.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Ilya knows this routine. Shane will get a wisp of an idea in his head and minute by minute it takes root, growing rapidly until it takes over their lives. In the weeks that follow, Shane becomes all consumed. Ilya wakes to him scrolling Reddit threads, comparing and contrasting sleeping mats. As they work out, Shane watches YouTube video after YouTube video of people talking to cameras for 45 minutes about water filters. And then the packages start arriving. Ilya truly could not comprehend how many packages they seemed to need for a five day trip. Once the last package came, Shane was practically skipping with excitement as he laid all of their gear out across the back deck so he could see it.

    ”Shane, why do we need aloe gel, Benadryl gel, AND calamine lotion? Is neosporin not enough? And what is this?” Ilya picked up a small bright orange walkie-talkie.

    Shane huffed. “One is for sunburns, one is for rashes, and one is for bug bites. And that’s an SOS device since we won’t have reliable cell service. It pairs with my watch, see?”

    Ilya had no idea what he was looking at on the tiny screen of Shane’s fitness tracker, but was wary of learning there was a chance they would need to send out an SOS signal.

    “Okay, but this is one week, we are not climbing Everest!”

    “It’s an investment, Ilya. If this is an annual trip, we might as well have high quality stuff that will last. Besides, since we started cutting back on sponsorships, I want to backpack more.”

    Ilya fought back the protest that would reveal just how horrified he was at the idea of more than one week a year being spent surviving off of the strange inflatable pads and eating out of the contraptions that slowly piled up in the guest room.

    Summary

    “I thought Ilya was, like, the man here,” Hayden motioned. Something suspiciously sounding like Jackie’s voice in the back of his brain told him that wasn’t the right wording, but he was too tired and already too buzzed to care. Besides, this was Shane, he didn’t need to say the perfect thing. Shane knew what he meant.

    Scott shifted. “They are both men, Hayden” he said very formally. Hayden suddenly felt like his dad was lecturing him.

    Hayden sighed. “No, Shane, you know what I mean.”

    Shane’s brow furrowed in concentration. “Like, because I bottom?” He said, slightly embarrassed.

    Scott’s steady gaze on Hayden suddenly turned very sharp.

    “No!” Hayden started. “Well, maybe? I don’t know how that works. I just mean, like, you’re real gay and Ilya likes women, right?”

    OR 5 times Hayden realizes other people know his best friend better than him, and the 1 time Shane tells him himself.

    Summary

    “Curtis, let me get this straight,” Ilya said, still half asleep. ”Are you telling me I grow up in Russia, I worry whole time about dangers of being gay, I risk those dangers and my job when I am outed, am only safe after I marry my husband, but am lucky enough to never have formal trouble with tyrannical regime, only to officially be reprimanded by suburban Canadian neighborhood code for the property I own?”

    “No one is trying to stop you from being gay Mr. Rozanov.”

    “Hollander-Rozanov.”

    “We just ask that you follow the neighborhood’s bylaws about how you display it.”

    “Funny,” Ilya said dryly. “Putin told me the same thing.”

    OR Shane and Ilya Hollander-Rozanov are a lot of things, including bitchy gays. As they put up with less bullshit in married life, their petty side shows more. Never come between a professional ragebaiter and his bitch wife.

    Summary

    A quick character study/amalgamation of Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov being filthily obsessed with each other and wanting to be close to one another in whatever depraved way they can think of.

    Honestly, this probably only touches the surface of their codependency.
