Summary
Shane Hollander is the youngest Commander in ISS history; straight-backed, closeted, and so tightly on his own leash that seven months in orbit with Ilya Rozanov have not produced a single crack in his composure.
Ilya Rozanov is the Russian cosmonaut who should have had his job, won’t stop bouncing a tennis ball off the walls, and is still looking for a fissure. Thankfully, a solar storm finds it for him.
or: Near-death, zero gravity, and the wrong man’s hands in exactly the right places.

Bookmarker's Notes
DAMN this was good! I can't believe I put it off for so long and then almost called in sick to work because I didn't want to out it down. Fantastic writing, immaculate plot, this fic is so sexy and smart! Everyone should read it, and if they don't they're missing out.

The MILF Theory (And Why the Internet Got It Wrong) by pucksandpower
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV), Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid
29 Dec 2025

Summary
The internet has decided that Ilya Rozanov is absolutely, definitely, 100% banging a Hollander.
They’ve got photo evidence. Multiple sightings. Instagram stories from the same café. The man stayed OVERNIGHT at the Hollander residence.
It’s the most legendary power move in NHL history: seduce your rival’s hot mom to assert dominance. There’s just one tiny problem with this theory. Ilya’s fucking a Hollander, all right. Just … not that one.
Or in which Ilya’s boyfriend's mother keeps adopting him, the internet keeps assuming the worst, and Shane Hollander is having the worst month of his entire life. At least until he does something that breaks hockey forever.

Summary
“Where are you going?”
“To the arena, Hollander. We are playing a game in three hours.”
“That’s tomorrow, Rozanov,” Hollander says, smirking like Ilya might be fucking with him and he wants to make sure he’s in on the joke. He looks behind and around him. “Um, can I come inside?”
“Hollander, we have game today. You were here yesterday.”
Hollander is striding toward his kitchen, looking over his shoulder at Ilya like he’s getting tired of the joke. “Very funny. I was in Montreal yesterday, Rozanov.”
“Hollander.” Ilya goes to stand in front of him. Hollander’s eyes flicker up and down his body the way that Ilya usually craves, but is rather unwelcome right now. “Today is Thursday. Game is today. Yesterday, you came to my house. We ate tuna melts, watched Buffalo game. Then, you left.”
“Rozanov, it’s Wednesday morning. And I’ve never been to your house before.”
“Hollander…”
“Look at your phone if you don’t believe me.”
Ilya snorts like a bull and pulls his phone out of his pocket, swipes down on the screen to look at the date.
Wednesday, November 9th.
Or: Ilya Rozanov in Groundhog Day!

Summary
Jaw Man flicked his middle finger up at Ilya, who didn’t seem to mind, and gestured towards Shane and Hayden with raised eyebrows. “The f*** are you even doing right now, man.”
Ilya said briefly, “Orgy.”
“Uh,” said Shane, “no, that’s not—”
Ilya grinned at him. It was a mean-edged grin but something about it seemed to suggest that he was joking with Shane, rather than about him. “Oh, he speaks.”
“We’re not here for an orgy,” Shane said to Jaw Man. “We’re missionaries with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.”

Great podfic of my favorite fic. So glad to have a way of easily returning to Away Childish Things while multitasking! Loved the authors comments at the end too, it's lovely to hear from other in fandom and what they love about the fics I also obsess over!

Summary
Nineteen years after the war, aging patriarch Lucius Malfoy has no plans to step aside as head of Malfoy and Co., the Wizarding World's most wildly successful media conglomerate. Despite this fact, Lucius is, inconveniently, in a coma. Draco Malfoy, Lucius' eldest and only son, is the heir apparent. As interim CEO, Draco is immediately thrown into the deep end: Head Auror Granger is playing a game of political chess, idiotic interns are waving around confidential documents, and he's dodging Avadas left and right. When the chaos sends a certain former school rival back into his life, Draco is faced with a difficult choice as love and family loyalties collide.
----
He ignored the excited whispering of the reporters. All he could hear, at the moment, was Potter’s voice in his head.
Ruined. Loved. Wasted.
Killer.
He’d failed in sixth year, that was true. He wasn’t a killer.
He was a prick, though.Bookmarked by PerpetuallyPerplexed

Loved it! Funny and hot and a little bit heartbreaking, then uplifting. This really packed it all into a tight little 32k, I particularly enjoyed how unhinged they both are, both in general and about each other specifically.

Summary
Deep in the bowels of the Ministry, Unspeakable Thomas uses new magical Foresight technology to arrest and convict murderers before they commit their crime. It's highly classified and morally ambiguous work, so of course he has no choice but to forget everything as soon as he steps off the lift.
Literally.

"I know you’re a good person. I trust you. You’re Harry bloody Potter. So.”
Draco stole his tea back, leaving Potter wide-eyed and grasping at empty space.

Summary
"Three for three," Harry says. "All three of my kids. Just seems — well, and then there's Ginny. That's — sort of — everyone."
Malfoy's mouth starts to curl, not enough to bring out the dimples. It's on the edge of meanness, really. "Feeling left out, Potter?" he says. "The only straight one in the family?"
"Ha," says Harry, trying for sarcasm but winding up sounding a little forlorn.
"Ever wonder if it's hereditary?" Malfoy says, throwing back the last of his drink and going over to the bar for more. "I do. Seems like it might be, with me and Scorpius, and Ginny and your kids."
This, in fact, runs so close to Harry's thoughts that he laughs in spite of himself. "You asking me if I'm queer, Malfoy?

AITA for being "obsessed" with my childhood nemesis? by RainstormRadish for beta_vulgaris

Summary
Alrakis • I [24M] attended a small boarding school in the UK. There was a boy in my year, a couple of months younger than me, and he became my nemesis after we developed an intense rivalry. My friend [25F] told me recently that our dynamic was "weird back then" and that "it’s even weirder" that I still think about him today. She argued that I talk about him all the time, but I believe the amount I talk about him is reasonable. AITA?
prongymcprongface • i completely get what you mean. i had a nemesis (like a school one, separate to my other nemesis) and we had a dynamic super similar to what you are describing. having a nemesis is a very cool and normal thing dw about it. NTA
In which Draco asks the internet if he's being reasonable. Only one commenter is sympathetic. They start talking.

Such a well written depiction of love, grief and healing.
I loved Tibs, and her well timed entrances.
The dialogue - both banter and genuine conversations - between Draco and Harry was superb, as was the back and forth between Draco and his memories of Astoria and the way the mandrake leaf wove her presence and their relationship throughout the narrative.

Star Quidditch rivals Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter become accidentally bonded. They still hate each other, but now it’s untenable to leave each other’s sides—and my, but it feels oh so good to touch. They’re either going to murder one another, or fall in love.
OR: A story in which Draco finally allows himself happiness, and Harry finally learns that he deserves to be whole.
