    Summary

    Shane sat on the edge of the lounger, his eyes fixed on Ilya’s hands as he rolled. He was in total awe. Watching Ilya was like watching a master craftsman; there was a fluid sort of grace to the way his large, scarred fingers manipulated the delicate paper. The hands that spent all winter punching pucks and shoving opponents were suddenly performing a task that required the precision of a watchmaker.

    He licked the adhesive strip with a quick swipe of his tongue and sealed it, twisting the end into a neat point. 

    “Fuck” Shane nearly moaned.

    Ilya chuckled. “We have not even started moy kotenok. Be patient.”

    Ilya grabbed the lighter from the table and lit the end, the cherry glowing a bright, steady orange. He took a small, controlled puff to ensure it was burning evenly, then turned to Shane. “Okay. Do not pull like you are gasping for air. Just a soft breath. Into the mouth, then take a little fresh air with it to the lungs. Then, hold it for a second before breathing out.”

    Or: After figuring out some patterns and doing research, Shane smokes weed for the first time and thoroughly enjoys himself.

    Summary

    They do not talk about what they’re doing. To acknowledge the ground beneath their feet would be to crash and burn immediately, or so Ilya assumed. Like stupid coyote cartoon running off a cliff; it’s fine, until he looks down. 

    But tonight Shane sits on the edge of his bed and sets his jaw and asks, “It’s not just me, right?” 

    Shane, apparently, just noticed gravity. 

    [Or: a missing scene from Episode 5, in which Ilya is Totally Fine, obviously, and they have sex about it.]

    Summary

    Shane: I’ve never wanted to share it since our timeline is so…complicated
    Hayden: Is it? You were fucking, then you dated, then you got married. Normal progression!
    Shane: I don’t think the “fucking” part of that equation is usually 7 years

    In which the Voyageurs’ secret homophobic group chat leaks, Shane decides it might be time to tell the world how long he’s been seeing Ilya, and said world loses their shit.

    Summary

The bleak funeral is attended by only 2 MLH players - himself and Ryan Price. Although Ilya understands why Shane wouldn't join him, it still hurts to have to face this dark reality alone.

    Meanwhile Shane is in St. Louis anxiously questioning his priorities in life..

    (TW: mentions of suicide/mental health.)

    Summary

    It starts, like any good small talk does, about the weather.

    Jane. I am dying.

    Shane is still in bed, spending his last hour before practice clicking endlessly through YouTube when he gets the notification. With no one there to see, he lets the smile settle comfortably as it spreads, and switches apps. He’s about to shoot down Ilya’s latest attempt at desperate seduction when another text arrives.

    I will play next game with no feet because cold took them.

    This... was new.

    Shane expects texts from Ilya to bring him to his knees. They do, but in another way instead.
