    Summary

    A lot happens in 2021.

    Troy Barrett is settled. He's out, he's in love. He's playing hockey on a great team.

    From the inside, he watches as his captain is outed, gets married, and brings his husband, Shane Hollander, into the Centaurs' locker room. Things shift, a little at a time.

    New for the world, he thinks. New in front of the world.

    Summary

    I am happy.

    Ilya tells himself this every morning and every night. He tells himself this in the car on the way to see Galina. He tells himself this when Shane scores a hat trick against Montreal and kisses Ilya at center ice. He tells himself this when the Centaurs break the Presidents’ Trophy curse to win their first Cup ever.

    I am so, so happy, Ilya thinks, because maybe if he says it enough times, if he just wishes hard enough, it will finally be true.

    OR: The many faces of Ilya's depression over the years.

    Summary

    "Shane," Bood says firmly. And it sounds so wrong, because Bood never calls him Shane. Shane is always Hollzy. And Bood's voice is supposed to be loud and steady, not shaky. And Shane finally, finally becomes aware enough of his surroundings to feel the trembling of Bood's hands against his waist. "Shane, please. They're working on him. We need to give them space so they can—so they can make sure he's okay."

    "He's my husband," Shane chokes out, not quite managing to choke down the sob that's been building up long enough to boil over. Bood makes a similarly choked noise at that. "You need to let me go. He's my husband."

    Summary

    “You look terrible,” Shane says bluntly when he greets Ilya at the stairwell. “Are you hurting?”

    Ilya shrugs. He is hurting, actually. The adrenaline from the win wore off somewhere between his texts with Shane and the medic’s second consult. His face feels swollen and it hurts to speak when he says, “I am not wilting daisy, Hollander. I can handle getting hit at hockey game.”

    “Well, I’m glad you’re okay.”

    A strange pang hits Ilya’s chest then, unassuming and small. Ilya chooses to think nothing of it.

    Summary

    Holy shit.

    That was Shane Hollander. His heart plummeted straight to his feet.

    Troy had never been thrilled to see Shane on the ice against him, but this was decidedly worse as the man threw a towel over his shoulder, dark eyes studying him intently.

    “Fuck me,” Troy whispered as he looked at Ilya, who gave a not-so-apologetic shrug. Asshole.

    Hollander clicked his tongue. “Seems like the world thinks my fiancé is doing that,” he said flatly.

    “They are calling us Rozarrett,” Ilya said unhelpfully. “Or Baranov. I’m not sure which.”

    Troy wanted to scream at him, but he had other problems at the moment. “Did you say fiancé?”

    Or

    In which Troy doesn’t immediately post Harris on his socials after coming out, and Ilya is inspired to come out shortly after. The result? An unfortunate misunderstanding, which leaves everyone thinking Baranov is the cutest couple in hockey.

    Everyone other than Shane and Harris that is.
