    Summary

    He'd made it halfway through writing the first note before it felt suddenly far too pathetic. Was this seriously the legacy he wanted to leave behind? No one would talk about any of his wins if he killed himself now. He would be the failed Russian team captain of the 2014 Olympics who couldn't handle the job and offed himself about it. His father would probably follow him in death just to yell at him for embarrassing the family, and Russia, and everyone who had ever rooted for him.

    And when he had been made captain in Boston, he had promised his Bears he would get them a cup. He couldn't just leave without doing that. Didn't want to leave and let people think he was a liar, or that he just gave up when things got hard, lazy, useless, stupid boy.

    He tore up the note he'd begun, and began his second plan instead.

    Summary

    Svetlana becomes an honorary Hollander and fluff and family bonding ensues. As does chaos.

    A canon retelling diverging post tuna melt, and for the better! Some weird combo of book and show canon. Series should be read in order. None are meant to stand alone.

    Note: This series is a combination of the book and TV canon (book names and timeline-ish with TV dialogue and character bodies (is that a weird way to say picture Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie as the characters?)).

    Summary

    “Is that what he does, then?” she asks, walking down the hallway to put the garment bag next to the one already there.

    She turns back, and sees Shane looking at her with a furrowed brow. She thought that question was clear, but perhaps not. “Like, philanthropy?” Given what hot boyfriend wears, he’s got to be making some serious buck. Or he was born into wealth. “My friend James dated a Russian socialite for a couple of months, and she just went to art galleries and threw dinner parties,” Ana elaborates. “Her dad’s an oligarch who, like, defected from the motherland in the late nineties.”

    or: four times shane's stylist meets his boyfriend, and one time she finally figures out who the boyfriend actually is.

    Summary

    Ilya hadn’t flown to Nashville with his team and, after a brief conversation, Shane won’t be flying with his team either. Surprising everyone involved to go to Russia with Ilya Rozanov instead.
