Summary
He isn’t sure why it took Shane so long to notice. Maybe it was the dim lighting of the hotel rooms, the urgency of one more time before one of them would inevitably get dressed and leave again. Maybe he had seen and not said anything before now, knowing Ilya’s unwillingness to rip his own heart out of his chest and lay it on the table. Maybe he wasn’t prepared for Ilya to be even more broken and fucked up than he already was.
Maybe, if he knew why, he wouldn’t want Ilya at all.
~~~~~
Shane notices childhood scars on Ilya's shoulder that never fully healed, and Ilya is not okay.

Summary
Linus Baker never saw himself as “father material.” Lacking a father himself–and practically a mother, too, Linus realized when he thought too hard about it–meant that he wasn’t sure what his role was meant to be.
Or
Five times Linus tried to be a good father, and one time he finally got it right.

just you and me on our snow day by tenaciousturtle

Summary
“We just got a text about the weather…” Shane’s eyes skimmed the screen. “Shit, practice is cancelled. I haven’t had a snow day like this since I was a kid!”
As a child, Shane had had a love-hate relationship of sorts with snow days. The disruption of his routine could have sent him spiraling, but it meant more time to play hockey and hang out with his parents, so it worked out alright in the end. His father would make banana pancakes for breakfast, his mother would set up a rink for him to play on in their backyard pond, and the day would be devoted to being out on the ice.
Ilya blinked at Shane, slowly putting down his Switch and sitting up. “What the fuck is snow day? It is winter, it snows every day.”
❆ ❆ ❆ ❆ ❆
When practice gets called off in the face of a blizzard and hazardous weather, Shane treats Ilya to his first Canadian snow day.

Summary
Ilya Rozanov was not good at “keeping the peace.”
It was the Russian stoicism in him, probably, or the fact that every time he attempted to fix the gaping issues in his home as a child he ended up with a crying mother, a yelling father, and a brother whose only conflict management skills were found in his fists. Ilya was accustomed to black eyes and bruised egos, not forgiveness.
So, of course, it was Shane’s idea, not his, that Ilya meet with Hayden fucking Pike and try to smooth over the monumental shitstorm that had come out of Jackie and Pike’s visit to Shane’s home some weeks earlier.
***
Ilya and Hayden talk after their disastrous first "real" encounter, and Hayden finally starts to understand what Shane sees in him.

Summary
You are not supposed to smoke when you have badly bruised ribs. You are not supposed to strain yourself by doing too much. You are not supposed to go right back to the exact same thing that hurt you and keep doing it until you can't take the pain any more or something snaps. These things are contraindicated.
The team doctor explained all this to Ilya wearily, with a look that said he already knew Ilya would do all these things. Oh, and one more thing— you are not supposed to lie down for a long time and not move, by the way, so don't do that either.
Unfortunately, these are the four main things that Ilya was planning on doing for probably the rest of his life after breaking up with Shane, so... that's just great. Good to know.
(or: "After the MLH awards, in June..." Ilya needs to talk to Scott Hunter. He goes to the Kingfisher.)
