    Summary

    Sometimes, Ilya Rozanov is just a weird guy. Obviously, the Bears aren’t going to say that to his face, not when he’ll chirp them into oblivion for it, but sometimes it just gets out of hand.

    Like the late night phone calls where he’s talking aggressively in Russian. The random knowledge he has offhand about how far you can throw a human being and have them come out okay. The Russian death metal he forces them to listen to, calling it family bonding. The scars he refuses to talk about.

    Cliff Marleau thinks he might be in the Russian mob. The Bratva, or whatever they call it.

    Ilya doesn't tell his team about his family until they've already invented a thousand conspiracies about it. Like him being in the mob. Or having rabies.

    In which Ilya Rozanov and Yuri Plisetsky are brothers, and the world changes with the most minute of connections.

    Now featuring Shane and Ilya's POVs on the canon divergence starting from chapter 5.

    Summary

    The problem was that everyone who played for Boston, except for Ilya, was like a million years old and had forgotten what fun was, if they’d ever known. They were all, like, married with kids and their idea of a good time was a barbecue where they drank a few flat weak-ass beers and or went golfing. Ilya just wanted to have fun, okay? He just wanted to live.

    Ilya gets traded to Montreal. Everything goes better than expected.

    Summary

    Ilya knew that Shane was Japanese, of course. It was one of many things that he knew about his husband, like his height, his birthday, his relative position in the NHL scoring race at any given moment, and the noise he made when he was about to come. He just hadn't thought about Shane being Japanese very much before they moved in together in Ottawa and could spend more than stolen moments together.

    Summary

    “So,” Ilya cleared his throat, the word sounding too loud in the stillness. “Shane tells me you like New Yorker.”

    Shane’s dad looked at him from where he was rinsing out a glass in the sink, visibly surprised that Ilya had spoken first.

    “Oh. Yes,” he said after a beat. “I like to read in the mornings. I love the crossword. Do you read The New Yorker too?”

    “No.”

    “Oh.”

    While Shane is outside with his mother, Ilya finds unexpected understanding and warmth in a quiet kitchen conversation with the man who helped raised the boy he loves.
