    Summary

    Shane’s jaw drops. “Rozanov?”

    Jesus Christ. He hasn’t seen Rozanov since the Olympics, which was five years ago. As far as he knew— because he’d never actually learned where the fuck Rozanov disappeared to— Rozanov had stayed in Russia instead of coming back to the USA to play out the rest of his contract with Boston.

    And yet, here he is. In fucking Florida, in a fucking tattoo shop.

    After securing his third Cup with the Metros, Shane makes an appointment at a reputable studio in Florida to commemorate the win with a tattoo.

    His tattoo artist is Ilya Rozanov.

    Summary

    Wyatt’s gaze shot up and it was like one of those moments in a fucking movie or something.

    Because the person bursting through the door like an absolute tornado at two in the morning was Shane Hollander. The man looked sweaty. And breathless. And panicked. No, haunted. His eyes were wide and tortured, chest heaving like he’d run here from Canada.

    What was he doing here in Tampa and not in Canada?

    Oh. OH. Oh shit.

    What if when the Centaurs plane trouble occurred, Shane immediately jumped on a flight to Tampa?

    Summary

    Shane was about to take another sip of his IPA when his entire body froze, the glass halfway to his lips. He knew that voice. It had been years since he last heard it, the grindstone of time smoothing the rough edges of the accent, but it was still unmistakably Russian. It was the voice of —

    “Hollander?” The man asked.

    Shane set the glass down and turned his head slowly, the stranger’s hood-covered face coming into view. He was looking at Shane with wide-eyed surprise.

    “Rozanov,” Shane replied flatly.

    ===

    Shane Hollander suffered a career-ending injury in 2014. Later that year, Ilya Rozanov medically retired fresh off of his first Cup win, the circumstances unclear. In less than a year, the hockey world had lost their two biggest rising stars. As well as a budding relationship nobody had even known about.

    It’s 2022 now, and Shane hasn’t seen Ilya since. He's tried not to think about it, about whatever they were or what they could’ve become, both on and off the ice. He lives in Toronto now, just far enough away from the life he’d left behind. Only, the world has other plans in mind, when a chance encounter at a bar on New Year’s Day brings 2014 screaming back for him to confront.

    Summary

    And so Shane steps into the Voyageurs' locker room, Luca on his heels, leaving the door open just a crack so Ilya and the others can hear what's going on.

    The room goes quiet immediately, all faces turning to Shane in shock.

    Hayden's the first to react, scrambling up from his stall, eyes wide. "Shane? What's going on?"

    "I just wanted to see if any of you were willing to talk? So quiet on the ice today. I thought you'd have things to say to me, all things considered." Shane sweeps his gaze over his former team, uses his disappointed-Captain-voice and feels a smidge of smugness when it clearly hits them as it always has. "So say them to my fucking face, not behind my back."
