    Summary

    Shane is heavier than he used to be; his weight bears down on Ilya in a new way. He’s put on pounds of muscle since Ilya last touched him like this. Ilya flattens his palms, skims them under Shane’s undershirt, feels the flat solidity of his abs, the bulk of his lats, the swell of his chest. It’s the same and it’s new, this body; it’s the boy he couldn’t stop thinking about when he was 18 and the man he loved enough to let go at 26 and the person who somehow always comes to find him when he’s lost.

    A stranger, and the love of his life.

     

    or, Ilya's father doesn't die in 2017; Ilya breaks up with Shane instead of confessing his love. They get older, but not any less stupid about each other. Shane gets a boyfriend; Ilya gets on medication; they work on becoming whole people. And they always find their way back to each other.

    OR a story for those who love Shane and Ilya's baby love but ALSO think it's hot when people in their thirties make active choices about who they are and what they want in their partner!!

    Note: the "cheating" tag refers to the relationship between Shane and his aforementioned BF, not to Shane and Ilya cheating on each other.

    Summary

    Miya slaps her hands on the tray in front of her, grabbing some yogurt in the process, “Papa!”

    “Oh,” Ilya breathes out, bracing himself in between two counters. “Shane, I think I am having heart attack.”

    Summary

    Shane releases what feels like his first exhale in forever—Ilya Rozanov, taken out by the common flu. Not ignoring him. Not ending anything. Still, the knot in his chest doesn’t ease completely with the vision of Ilya unwell and alone in Shane’s head.

    JANE

    Are you at your house?

    LILY

    Where else, Jane?

    JANE

    Don’t fall asleep. I’ll be there soon. 

    LILY

    No, am sick. I told you. 

    JANE

    I heard you. I’ll be there soon.

    Or, Ilya’s sick and Shane wants, and wants, and wants.

    Summary

    Luna turned her head slowly, taking in the sea of leafy columns around her. The earth smelled sweet and lush, as though someone had spilt an entire harvest festival on the ground.

    “Well,” she said aloud – with no one else around to hear – “this is new.”

    A sudden gust of wind tore through the field, bending the green towers nearly flat and making Luna’s hair whip against her cheeks. It also revealed, hanging from the plants, large tufts of shaggy, golden-brown fluff.

    “Not entirely new, then,” Luna concluded, rising to her feet with a small grunt. She brushed off her dress – pointlessly, since it was already a disaster – and regarded the towering stalks with polite interest.

    “It appears I have landed myself in a cornfield.”

    In which Luna is accidentally blasted into the past courtesy of one of her mother’s experiments. Somehow, she then manages to hoodwink a Dark Lord, acquire a cult following, seduce unsuspecting wixen with nothing but apples in hand, and thoroughly enrage a priest.

    Love, naturally, sneaks in at the end.
