    Summary

    I can practically hear you thinking out there, Hollander. Are you going to knock or not?

    Fucking Rozanova. Shane scoffs, lifting her hand to rap her knuckles twice against the door. 

    The door opens, and sure enough, there’s Iliana, a cat-like grin on her face.  “Took you long enough, Hollander.”

    Summary

    Summary

    As his eyes adjusted to the gloom, Ilya understood why Shane had been so insistent on him coming over.

    He had been struck by the change. The one no one could understand. That science couldn’t explain and was still rarely spoken about out loud.

    Or: Ilya helps Shane through an unexpected predicament.

    Summary

    He fumbled in his right trouser pocket, then his left, then his jacket pockets increasingly frantically, checking them all a second time in case he had somehow missed the thin piece of plastic he needed.

    It wasn’t there.

    Shane had a horrible suspicion he knew where it was.

    He thought back to draping his jacket over the back of the couch in Rozanov’s hotel room, folding his shirt and trousers and putting them in the same spot. His keycard must still be in Rozanov’s room.

    He briefly considered just sleeping in the hallway.

    (Shane leaves his keycard in Ilya's room. He has a breakdown. Ilya fixes it.)

    Summary

    “I’m putting in a transfer request to Carleton this afternoon.”

    Ilya gets off his bike and wraps his sweaty arms around Shane’s sweaty shoulders, presses their sweaty heads together and holds him tight. “Nooo, Hollander, you cannot leave me. Who will put Barrett and Marly in time out when they fuck up too many shots in a row?”

    “I’m sure Bood will do it. He loves bossing people around.”

    Bood stands up straight and salutes his captains. “I take the title with great honor. Enjoy the Ravens, Hollander—your legacy of being a chaste Victorian debutante will be remembered fondly but not carried on.”

    This snaps that last thread of Shane’s refined patience. “I can pick up girls! I have no problem getting numbers and calling them and talking!”

    Hazy smirks. “Innocent until proven guilty.”

    “I can pick people up,” Shane says again, moving off his bike and out of Ilya’s sweaty embrace. “And I don’t have to do it by concocting schemes or stripping on top of the LAX bros’ coffee table.”

    Or, after some team chirping at Shane's expense, Ilya accidentally interrupts a few of his potential dating prospects and then keeps on doing it less than accidentally
