Ilya is so nice [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot]

Ilya is so nice by IfYouSeekEuge

Shane Hollander is absolutely, completely fucked.

Sharing an aparment through college is normal, what is not normal is Ilya Rozanov, an infuriatingly affectionate roommate who seems determined to take care of him in every possible way.

The problem? Ilya Rozanov is just nice, so fucking nice

Or, Omega Shane remains oblivious to Alpha Ilya attempts to court him.

Shane and social clues. Can I just like... I dont know? Just super relate to Shane's struggles or something? 

I just love these kinds of fics where Shane a little bit lost but gets there in the end. Yea. These are sad and makes me cry. But. I dont think thats a bad thing?

BOGO [Game Changers, Hollanov, David Hollander/Yuna Hollander]

A fiery plane crash claims Ilya Rozanov’s life in January. By April, Shane Hollander is dead of a broken heart. The truth dies with them.

Yuna Hollander will do anything to get her son back, including hiring a shady shaman to resurrect him. There’s just one complication — Shane isn’t coming back alone.

Now there are codependent (not)zombies in her house wearing Ilya and Shane’s faces. When they inexplicably act more like a married couple than the bitter rivals she expected, Yuna is convinced that they came back wrong.

It’s easier than admitting she never understood them from the start.

I would love to know how people come up with these ideas? Like how, what, when, seriously.

Yea. These two idiots are it for each other, there is literally no one else that can match their freak, intensity, whatever. They are made for each other in every single way. And here they are basically sharing one soul. How that works for them? Really good when you add a little bit magic to the mix.

Still I like the zombie idea without actual zombies in the mix. There is only one thing I didn't really get, but hys, we can just ignore it and pretend that it makes sense. Well, it makes as much sense as everything else here.

And there is a sequel. Of course, finally a time where I want to read more and there actually is more to this. 

Heal Deal is the story from Shane's point of view. And adds more about how it felt to be dead and be risen from that. And also how Ilya fits in the mix. There is more porn and more feelings and more just stupid possesive shit where these two need to share skin and still they cannot be close enough to each other.

It all just makes so much sense.  

And then if we would just get it all from Ilya's point of view it would be cherry on top. But Im not that greedy. I can be more than happy with these two.

The following weekend, interrupting an argument about saving versus spending, Kip said for the first time, “Why do I lowkey feel like you guys are perfect for each other?”

There was a brief silence at the dinner table. Then Hollander started laughing. With his full chest, which Ilya had never heard. Ilya started laughing, too, and then everyone else joined in. “Good one,” Ilya said.

This is the dream. Having a place to hang out with friends, having just the perfect friend group where this is possibly. Just. This is basically everything I have always dreamed off. Which is why I maybe cried through this.

Maybe they are all rich and succesfull. And maybe they have pretty much the perfect life. This is still something to dream about and have as a goal in life. Probably never gonna happen, but who knows.

At that moment, Ilya knew he was hallucinating, and that he’d hit his head a lot harder than he thought.

Because here was Shane fucking Hollander— in his fucking kitchen, wearing his fucking clothes. He was making borscht.

“What the fuck,” Ilya croaked.

(Ilya takes a rough hit. Shane is there to take care of him.)

Somehthing super disgustingly cute. Yeah. 

my best friend's new best friend [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot]

my best friend's new best friend by LiarsandThieves22

Roz couldn’t take three hours off when he was in Boston to see Cliff, but somehow managed to kick off a whole ass friendship with his worst enemy when the guy lived two hours away? Make that make sense! As far as Cliff knew, Hollander didn’t even like any of the things that Roz liked – partying or clubbing or drinking. What did Hollander have that Cliff didn’t? Besides a second Cup? And several MVP awards? And multiple broken records?

Oh god. Had Roz picked Hollander as his new best friend because he was better than Cliff at hockey?

--

Cliff is very proud to be Ilya Rozanov's best friend (or at least his best male friend). But then Ilya moves to Ottawa, dodges Cliff's attempts to hang out and, oh yeah, suddenly announces a close friendship with a guy he's hated for most of a decade. This would be much simpler to deal with if Cliff had any idea how to talk to Roz about feelings. Or how to talk about feelings at all.

I love Cliff and I love all the fics where Cliff is just Ilya's best friend and there for him. Just. All of them are pure gold. 

Cliff is just a flawed character in the fics, but his learning curve and the whole character arch is always they best and most revarding. He learns and he tries to be there, even when he is not always sure what he is doing and how he is doing stuff. But his heart is made of gold. He is part of the found family Ilya needs in life. 

 We just need more Cliff. Thats it.
