    Summary

    Cliff Marleau has known about Ilya Rozanov’s relationship since Ilya was twenty-two. 

    It’s not like it was complicated to put the pieces together, is the thing. When it all comes out in public, the Raiders have various different meltdowns – Twitter explodes in a way that is sort of unprecedented, and breaks out of the hockey specific Twitter spaces the same way that the Scott Hunter thing did. There’s shitty headlines and queer space headlines, and it’s a whole thing. And Cliff is pretty sure he’s the person least surprised about it. 

    But here’s the thing. Cliff Marleau has known Ilya Rozanov since the kid was eighteen. 

    OR:
    Marly's not as oblivious as everyone thinks. Throughout his time knowing Ilya Rozanov, he picks up on some things nobody else seems to be seeing. He keeps his mouth shut about it.

    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
    so am I
    fuck Marlow

    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.

    Summary

    Everyone around Ilya starts to notice something. Some see a particularly troubling look in his eyes. Some notice the patterns in his questions to the team whenever they spend an extended amount of time trapped together on the bus or the plane. At least one is clued in by his wife, who took two random passing comments and created a complex and fairly accurate theory. Some stumble upon their partner and their teammate in an awkwardly intimate position, only to discover they were fighting over their theories.

    5 times they get suspicious of Ilya's scheme, +1 time they wholeheartedly endorse it.

     

    Part 1 of Ilya Rozanov's feminist agenda.

    Summary

    "I don't mean to come here and freak you out," Scott said, though he knew there was no avoiding it. He'd been where they were before. It had felt like he was dying, back then. "I just don't want you to think you're the only ones, okay? There's lots of us."

    Their eyes snapped to him in unison, startled and intense. Hollander croaked, "What?"

    "There's over sixteen hundred guys in the MLH and AHL," he reminded them, because it had felt improbable to him when he first heard until he remembered the sheer size of the hockey world. "There's — well, we don't know how many of us there are, but there's at least seventeen of us that know each other. Plus you two. We watch out for each other."

    His eyes enormous, Hollander asked, "There's, what? A secret underground gay hockey network?"

    Scott shrugged. "Yeah, basically."

    ----

    Ilya and Shane find their way into The Tennis Club, a network of closeted hockey players that hook up - so long as everyone keeps it casual. Which is no problem! They can do casual, right?
