    Summary

    Ilya had spent his whole life learning which emotions he was and was not allowed to feel in front of others. He could be angry, but only when it helped him be better. He could be happy, but only if he’d earned it.

    Sadness was not an option, but it was what he felt most often. Sometimes it overwhelmed him, but he couldn’t afford to let anyone else see that.

    —————

    A 4+1 fic, covering various times in Ilya’s life during which he deals with things silently and no one notices, and one time someone does.

    Summary

    "Sveta," he says, before she can greet him. "I think I'm about to do something very stupid."

    "You're always doing something stupid," she laughs, her voice tinny over the speakerphone. "What is it this time?"

    "I am in a staring contest with a bottle of pills," Ilya says. "And I think the pills might win."

    Or: An alternate take on Ilya's mental health after moving to Ottawa, featuring the reality of long distance relationships, Ilya learning to captain a new team, and a series of game tapes made by Ilya's dead father.

    Summary

    “Ilya,” Hollander breathes, which—Ilya isn’t sure Hollander has ever called him by his first name. Surely he has sometime in seven years of acquaintance? But the sound of it is novel, unfamiliar. 

    And far from unpleasant. 

    Then Hollander says, “Baby,” and Ilya knows for certain that he’s never called Ilya that, because it takes the air right out of Ilya’s lungs and makes his guts twist and fuck, he would have remembered if Hollander had ever called him that. Especially in that reverent tone. 

    It’s nice. 

    Ilya doesn't remember being married to Shane Hollander. Probably, he should tell someone.

    He decides not to.

    You
    I really was looking forward to seeing you after the game
    I’m as sad at missing that
    As I am sad at missing the playoffs.

    Lily

    You
    Aww, he’s not your favorite anymore?

    Lily
    LEAST favorite now 😤

    You
    I mean at least he feels bad. I believe him when he says he didn’t mean to hurt me.

    Lily
    so do I
    I just don’t care
    he still DID hurt you
    he should watch where he’s going

    You

    So you’re not going to get custom Bears lingerie with a 7 on it, then?

    Lily
    no
    I’ll get one for every other number on the team though 😘

    You
    That’s an awful lot of money to spend on kindling.

    Leaked texts from Shane Hollander’s phone out him…as dating a Cliff Marleau fangirl.

    No one is really sure what to do about this — least of all, Cliff Marleau.
