    Summary

    He could’ve gone pro.

    Instead, Macklin Celebrini gets disowned, hops on a Greyhound to Los Angeles, and starts chasing rock stardom with a guitar, a secondhand Marshall amp, and absolutely no backup plan.

    It’s the late 70s. Rockstars were rising, and Macklin was falling right alongside them.

    Unfortunately, Los Angeles has a way of turning beautiful disasters into legends.

    Summary

    The bartender is turned around, arm stretched upwards towards a top shelf. He’s wearing low rise pants and a black long-sleeve shirt cut off right above his waistline, revealing a stretch of skin that harbors a recognizable tattoo at his tailbone. The back of his head is familiar too— a bout of curls, flopping just past his nape, the glint of tiny silver hoops poked into his ears.

    Shane blinks as they come up closer. “Holy shit,” he remarks as Ilya says, “Haasy?”

    Luca whips around at the sound of their voices, wide-eyed.

     

    Or: after Luca Haas’ side gig is revealed to them, it must be a mere coincidence that the Rozanov-Hollander pair start frequenting the bar he works at

    Summary

    "We are actually so fucking washed," Shane bitches. "I'm never getting better and you are stuck on a losing team that sucks. Everyone is going to forget about us."

    "Don't make me trip you," Ilya says, calmly. "Let's do another lap."

    "No," Shane barks. Ilya raises his eyebrows.

    Shane refuses to accept this. This perpetual cycle of suck. When he invited Ilya to his cottage almost four years ago now, he didn't expect their relationship to turn into their fucking burial ground.

    Shane finds himself grounded in Ottawa for the foreseeable future. With his newfound free time, he hangs out with his family, eats Costco Rotisserie chicken, and whips Ilya Rozanov back into a champion.
