    Summary

    Shane hates losing control and the last several months-years if he's being honest-have been nothing but him trying to grab onto any choice he can make for himself. In the wake of being outed, exiled from the team he's dedicated his life to, and losing everything he's worked so hard for just because of who he fell in love with, Shane does the only thing he can: he runs until he feels like he's far enough away that he can't hear anyone else's opinions.

    It's time for Shane to make a decision, just once, he wants to choose something for himself.

    Summary

    His brain struggled to catch up with what he was seeing.

    Scott Hunter had his hands on someone’s face, someone not in uniform. Someone in street clothes. A man. He kissed him. Not quick. Not subtle. Full on the mouth.

    Holy shit.
    Holy. Shit

    Shane stared, his thoughts stalling completely.

    His phone rang. Breaking the shocked silent trance he was in.

    The sound tore through the room. He grabbed it instantly.

    “Mom! finally, where have you-”

    “Hello… may I speak with Shane Hollander, please?”

    His voice caught.

    “…Yeah. This is him. Who is this?”

    “My name is Jade. I’m calling from emergency services. I’m calling about David and Yuna Hollander. Is now a good time to talk?”

    Everything inside him went still.

    Summary

    No one ever thought that anyone in the NHL would top Scott Hunter's epic coming out, Scott included. He watches in real time as he's ousted as reigning NHL queer icon. Naturally, it had to be Rozanov to do it.

    Or: An alternative ending to the plane crash that wasn't in the Long Game.

    Summary

    After Shane comes out, the Metros become convinced he might be attracted to them.

    Shane corrects this assumption with devastating precision, accidentally describes Ilya Rozanov in the process, and somehow turns the entire locker room into a deranged pageant of heterosexual insecurity.
