I’ll Believe in Anything (Except That) by Vardic

Summary
In another timeline, Shane and Ilya hook up in room 1410, nothing goes wrong, and everything plays out exactly as we know it.
In this one, Yuna Hollander walks in before Ilya can leave—and the seven-year situationship never gets the chance to start. Instead, through the power of miscommunication, Shane and Ilya start dating in 2010. With better support, they make better decisions. Their rivalry fizzles out before it ever has the chance to fully ignite, replaced instead by a beloved “bromance". In 2015, they come out to the NHL and the world.
No one believes them.
Or: Somehow, despite Shane and Ilya being out for two years, Scott Hunter is still considered the first openly gay player in the NHL, much to Ilya’s horror.

Summary
Shane got told a lot to go back home; “Go back to your country” was a normal chirp for him. He thought it was a stupid comment, because home was Ottawa for him. Unfortunately, everyone else thought differently and waved him off to some generic Asian country instead.
A series of short episodes of Shane, Yuna, racism, and microaggressions.

Summary
Galina makes it a point to remind Ilya that people aren’t mind readers, and unfortunately, if there’s something wrong, he has to actually communicate this. He's aware of this. He is. Even though it's always been so much easier said than done, even on a good day.
But when the unthinkable happens, Shane ends up seriously injured, and Ilya can't bring himself to reckon with his role in it all, or how they'll move forward.
Now it's all the more impossible to communicate the weight of his guilt, the feelings of inadequacy, and the all-consuming fear that Shane might not survive.
Alternatively, life as everyone knows it falls apart when Shane takes a bullet that was meant for Ilya.

Shane thinks about dying all the time. It's a lot funnier than it sounds.
