Summary
Nicky wanted to talk to his mom. Which was stupid. Incredibly stupid, actually. Because his mom, his mother, wouldn’t exactly be a comfort here.
Even if she was speaking to him she wouldn't understand this weird mess of feelings. Talking about feelings with her at all would be such a shitshow anyway. But to talk about how he was feeling about his teammate who hated him, who hated him for the same reasons she did, would be worse than useless.----
A weird little introspective piece of Nicky coming to terms with his reaction to Seth's death. Nicky contemplates his own reaction to the news and thinks back on his presence in his life and how the homophobia and abuse he's been subjected to since coming out has impacted him.

Summary
It wasn’t so much that Andrew hadn’t intended to hurt Kevin in the moment his hands wrapped around his neck. It was that it had been a reaction.

Summary
Kevin Day thought there was something familiar about the last-resort recruit from Arizona when they watched his tapes. It wasn’t until he was looking him in the eye in person that he realized. Nathaniel Wesninski might be miscolored and a few years older than the last time he saw him but to Kevin he was unmistakable.
A ‘Kevin recognizes Neil’ fic.

Summary
Jean and his therapist agree it's time for him to work on getting into the water and working on his Aquaphobia. The thing is, Jean needs someone he trusts to help him. Enter Neil Josten.
A bit of a platonic relationship study of my favorite forever partners as well as an 'outsider perspective' from Jeremy 'definitely not jealous' Knox.

Summary
Sometimes life came at you with a clenched fist and Ilya had never figured out how to duck.
So here he was, twenty-eight years old, single, dealing with the fallout from injuries given to him by the game he loved, and the second youngest assistant coach in the league to one of the worst teams. Stability was hard to come by, but he was managing.
Then along came Shane Hollander to knock him on his ass, one more time.

Summary
Troy took a deep breath. “Just wait a sec.” Roz shifted on his feet but stayed where he was. “You really did something for me tonight and I don’t want it to end with you running away, back into the closet.”
Follows (and adds on to) events from both Role Model and the Long Game if Ilya confirmed Troy's suspicions after they went to the Kingfisher. How might having someone to confide in helped both of them? (The story remains largely the same. I'm just exploring the community angle of it all)

Summary
"Why are you not scared?"
"I am scared," Ilya admits. "I just am tired. Of hiding me. Of hiding you. Of hiding how much I love you. I want to go to the rink— how do you say it? Authenti."
"Authentically," Shane supplies, automatically.
"Yes. Authentically. I want to go to the rink authentically, as me," Ilya confirms.
Ilya looks at Shane, pauses until Shane meets his eyes. "I want to say: I, Ilya Rozanov, love a man, and that man's name is Shane Hollander."
