    Summary

    Ilya started the list when he was seven years old. Then, it was a single sheet of lined paper, the header Потрясающие вещи written in blue marker. Potryasayushchiye veshchi. Brilliant things. Wonderful things, amazing things.

    The first few entries were easy. Simple.

    #1: Пломбир. [Ice cream.]
    #2: Собаки. [Dogs.]
    #3: Катание на коньках. [Ice skating.]
    #4: Жёлтый цвет. [The color yellow.]
    #5: Библиотекарь в школе. [The librarian at school.]

    - - -

    Ilya makes a list for his mother, a list of everything in the world that is brilliant. Of course, he didn't know then how it would continue to change his life more than twenty years later.

    Summary

    Rozanov pins Shane down, fucks into him like he almost hates him, gets a hand around his cock, rough and deliberate, and says it low against his ear—go ahead, try it. Say her name one more time, I fucking dare you—and Shane opens his mouth and sobs into the pillow and nothing else comes out. Just tears and the blood under his nails from Rozanov's back. Then he finds the angle he's been finding since Nashville, and the name is gone entirely.

    That's also, more or less, the point.

    Shane hates him for that. He hates him the way you hate something that keeps being right about you.

    -

    Or: Shane spends nine years building a structure so airtight it functions as a personality, and Ilya Rozanov spends nine years being the single thing that doesn't fit inside it.

    Featuring crazy situationship sex, the complications of sometimes being a terrible person, and one unhinged fixation on Svetlana Vetrova, 31 photos deep, that was never about Svetlana Vetrova.

    Summary

    There is a very attractive woman in front of Ilya. A woman that wants to fuck him. His body is consciously aware of this very fact, however, his entire brain seems to neglect it, opting to scream look at what’s behind her like a screeching freight train.

    On the screen is the dark outline of a person, shot against a blinding sun. Any distinguishable features are obscured, cloaked in dim shadow. Still, Ilya knows exactly who it is.

    He would recognize that silhouette anywhere.

    Or, Ilya keeps seeing Shane everywhere — on the TV, in advertisements. It may or may not be interfering with his attempts to get laid, and also does nothing to change the fact that he hasn't seen Shane in months.

    Set during the 2014-2016 montage era.

    Summary

    Shane remembers the way the world tilted, how he stumbled out the door, how the air felt wrong in his lungs. He was laughing, he thinks. At one point. He was crying. He couldn’t tell the difference. Somewhere behind him, Hayden’s footsteps followed, distorted, distant, like they were coming through water.

    He remembers thinking, with a terrible and absolute certainty: Ilya is dead.

    And then, just as quickly, just as absurdly: I need to talk to Ilya about this.

    -

    Or: An alternate/expanded take on the days following the Centaurs' emergency landing, featuring Shane's inability to accept proof, Ilya's stubborn insistence on being alive, and the particular difficulty of loving someone whose heart has had every reason to stop, maybe even before the crash.
