    Summary

    "Dek had never quite grasped the concept of knocking before entering a room, and Thia had quickly given up on enforcing it. After all, it wasn’t like he was going to walk in on her performing an embarrassing biological function. Thia now finds herself distantly regretting this carefree attitude as she and Dek make brief mutually surprised eye contact before his gaze inevitably sinks lower, to where Thia has just finished connecting the last new synthetic nerves and is smoothing the skin matrix back down behind the new set of genitals she’s installed."

    Thia installs a new piece of hardware. Dek helps troubleshoot.

    Summary

    The dare is simple. Get a date with one Peter Parker, Queens, Midtown High, the kid who won a science award tonight and spent the reception lying on the ballroom floor photographing chandeliers. Sixty dollars. Easy money.

    Except Peter Parker turns out to be genuinely funny, annoyingly brilliant, and the only person in recent memory who has walked away from Johnny Storm mid-sentence. And Spider-man, who is Johnny’s best friend and has been for eight months, already knows things about Johnny that most people never get close enough to learn. Johnny, however, has no idea these are the same person.

     

    or

    Johnny gets dared to go on a date with Peter, but turns out it’s not a new guy. It’s his best friend Spider-man.

    Summary

    “Ilya Rozanov,” Shane repeats slowly, letting himself taste the words. He grins. “Wow. You’re, like, a really good player. How come you’re in Canada for summer camp? Is that weird to ask? Sorry if that’s weird. I just meant-”

    Shane is cut off by a hand on his mouth. He flushes.

    “Too fast,” Ilya says. “My English… not good.”

    “Sorry,” Shane mumbles into Ilya’s hand. Ilya grins and shakes his head, curls dancing, as he pulls his hand away.

    “Is okay. Slow words. Okay?”

    This year marks thirteen year Shane Hollander's third summer at Coach Marakov's elite hockey training camp. In attendance for the first time: Ilya Rozanov, visiting from Russia. Shane isn't the most sociable, and Ilya's English isn't the greatest, yet the unlikely duo soon become the best of friends.

    It's just one summer, but it makes a world of difference.

    Summary

    Ilya is plummeting to his death when he closes his eyes, heart full of regret.

    When he opens them in what feels like just a second later, he is standing outside a rink in Regina, Saskatchewan. There’s a banner on the building across the street:

    World Junior Hockey Championship 2009.

    What?

    Summary

    The queer NHL players (begrudgingly) unite via group chats in the face of social media scandals.

    These stories take place on a (slightly loose) chronological timeline and make the most sense when read in order. However, they're all independent stories/scandals and can be read as standalones.

    All stories take place post TLG and include spoilers for the books.
