    Summary

    But once he realizes that, he immediately knows that he can't come out. It would ruin his legacy.

    He's pretty sure that's why he doesn't want to come out. No other reason. Right?

    Summary

    "Did any of you think for a single moment about the fact that Ilya is from fucking Russia?”

    The room was silent.

    “Huh? No? That’s weird. What, Wilson, you are telling me you wouldn’t share a secret that would endanger Roby’s life? How weird.”

    Shane looked around the room, staring each and every player in the eye. He was done being afraid; he was done being ashamed. They should be the ones cowering their gaze, not him."

    OR

    Homophobia, Russia, fear, and everything in between.
