you his boyfriend or something? [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot]

you his boyfriend or something? by ingberry 

Shane is at a sports bar in Tampa when people at his table start talking shit about Ilya. It becomes impossible to keep his mouth shut. 

Or, an alternative retelling of how Hayden finds out.

Here we go again. Shit. 

For my defence, this is so cute and short and funny.  Everything. Hayden is also life and best and whatnot. Probably gonna get lost in the whole Hayden thing at some point. Probably. Because why not.

But these two are cute and awesome and so in love. And this felt like it could be canon. Yup.

His Ian [Shameless, Gallavich, oneshot]

His Ian by DarkHair_BrightEyes 

Ian is a constant figure in little Yevgeny's life. Yevgeny thinks his family is the same as all of his friends' families.  

** A one shot in which Yevgeny is convinced 'Ian' is a term of endearment.**

Im kinda sad that there isnt really that many good fics where Yevgeny grows up around Ian. There are plenty of fics where Mickey and Ian meet up after Mickey is a farher already. But not so many where Ian is there from the start. 

So this was just so cute, short take on how Yevgeny sees Ian while growing up. How Ian is part of this weird little family. And how they all are just so perfect together. Yea. All that.

Ian is seventeen when he moves to the South Side. Lip tells him to stay away from the wrong people, but no one remembers to warn him not to fall in love with the neighborhood thug.

I didnt want to have high hopes for this one. I have read so many mediocore, shitty or just plain boring fics lately that I just didnt want to be disapointed. 

But nope. This delivered and was soo good. I kinda just want to skip sleeping tonight and read all the sequels to this. But real life comes first and I really cant go and sabotage my whole life over a fanfic. 

Still. Mickey is trying and trying and being so good for Ian. And Ian is just a little shit in love.

"You're supposed to smoke over there." Someone said from behind Ilya. 

Ilya almost dropped his cigarette. His English was shitty, but he had studied that sentence enough times over the years to understand it immediately. He didn't even think about his words much anymore, but it was impossible to avoid them. 

He turned instinctively, and was face to face with Shane fucking Hollander. 

Out of almost seven billion people, of course Ilya's soulmate had to be his fated rival. It was almost poetic. Still, Ilya had enough sense to realize just how bad this was. 

or, Shane says Ilya's soulmate words. Ilya vows to never speak a word to him to keep him from finding out. They fall in love anyway. 

I don't usually read the authors comments in fics. Part of its because I really cant be arsed and part of me is just way too lazy. But thank god I did here. It gave me a whole new perspective on things and made me appreciate the fic even more (like it even needed that). It just made me think how it is really good to go outside your comfort zone and really try different things, they could really surprise you and everyone around you.

This surprised me and kept me hooked. At this point I can say I have read all the books and I am really up to date with everything. Kinda. Or maybe I am too deep. Pick your poison.

I liked how this followed the book but gave it its own twist. And then I just kept waiting for Ilya finally crack and say something to Shane. And maybe I spent a little bit too much time wondering why Shane doesn't question more why Ilya doesn't talk to him. And maybe the ending made me fall in love even more.

I kinda want to add something about how sad Ilyas life, childhood was here. But I don't really have the words to that. Lets just cry for him and let him enjoy the perfect life he will have with Shane. 

So maybe the thing is that this feels perfect. Maybe. Something along the lines at least. And I am just sad that there are only limited amount of fics about them. But hopefully that will change and fast. There has been a raise in fics but we will see how it goes. 

the little things give you away [Shameless, Gallavich]

the little things give you away by orphan_account  

When Ian first sees them, he thinks they’re twins. They both have similar looks, with pale skin, dark hair, and blue eyes. They act similar too—both of them are quiet, they fidget in the same way, and they make some of the same facial expressions. 

 Ian wants to know them.

At this point it would be pretty damn nice to read something that doesnt make me cry. But Im still trying to find a fic where Mickey is some kind of crime lord and Ian is a lost puppy, so this can be kind of compromise until I find that. 

Other than that, I really love their whole three way relationship. It just so good, freshing and makes so much sense. I would probably be super happy just to read a fic where they are the bestest friends forever without any real plot. 

Yup.
