Summary
Shane was fourteen the first time a number felt like safety.
The nutritionist worked out of an office in Kanata, framed certificates, a calm voice, laminated charts with columns. She explained it simply: fuel in, output required, timing of each. She said it was a starting point.
Shane took notes in the margins the way he took notes on everything—completely, past what was required. Yuna had found the nutritionist herself, sat beside him, and took notes too.
Like mother, like son.

Or: Shane’s system works until it doesn’t; Ilya notices first.

Summary
When Jaskier is young, he is sold to a slaver to solve his parents' problems with money.
He ends up at the royal court of Tretogor, a gold-collared bedslave, reserved for the royal line. Unlike the others, Jaskier doesn't settle into his fate, but rebels in what little ways he can.
It's no wonder then, that when the warlord of the north visits Tretogor for negotiations, Jaskier finds himself in the middle of it all.---000---
His mother's face is sad, and Julian wishes more than anything he could change that. She tucks a lock of his soft brown hair behind his ear.
“Remember how you said you wanted to help?”
Julian nods.
“There’s someone who… is coming to take a look at you. If you do well, we’ll get enough to pay the rent that’s still due. If we’re very lucky, we’ll get enough to buy back the farm.”
“What do I have to do?” Julian asks.
A tear tracks down his mother’s cheek.- Language:

Summary
Today was supposed to be a normal day. Completely normal. That’s what Zuko had planned for. Well, maybe he and Uncle Iroh would get takeout, but… that was still normal. Totally normal.
Of course, the universe hated Zuko, and today was absolutely not at all normal.

Summary
From across the rink, Shane watches Ilya get punched in the face.
He keeps a distance from the mess playing out. He knows better than to go over and make it worse. He would be more worried about it if Ilya wasn’t laughing with blood running down his face as one of his teammates drags him away. He’s yelling at the player that punched him, and Shane is grateful he can’t hear what he’s saying because he knows it’s obscene.
“Your boy is feral tonight,” Pike says to Shane.
Shane groans. “He's not my boy.”When Shane is in junior high, Ilya's family moves to Canada. Instead of meeting as adults, they grow up together. Shane learns Russian and Ilya spends a majority of his time at the Hollander household. When they start their professional hockey careers, they have to learn how to be opponents instead of teammates, but also how to be apart for the first time in their lives. When Ilya suggests that they sleep together, Shane has to balance their friendship and their casual relationship.

Summary
Shane has always just dealt with it —
the tension, the discomfort, the things that don’t quite feel right.When finally, Ilya starts to notice the pattern.
It just takes him a while to realise it all comes back to something as simple as a haircut.
or
My theory as to why Shane grows his hair out for The Long Game
