say you'll see me again [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot, nc-17]

say you'll see me again by jarpadsalecki 

Shane Hollander was too far away in the stands for Ilya to see him earlier. Now here he is, up close. Shane Hollander, Canadian boy wonder, who Ilya is just about sick and tired of hearing about. 

Shane, the boy he has been dreaming about since he was eight years old.

I did have a plan what I was gonna say about this one. But it took me like a half a day to get this far so I  may have forgotten all about it. All I remember was that it was a really well tought, deep and detailed plan. So. Im just gonna try to do some justice for this and probably fail miserably.

One thing I really like about this is how it doesnt rewrite the book (or tv show, whatever). But all those moments are kind of in the background and you only get the dream part, the soulmate part. It just makes sense and makes this that much better. You need all the background info to understand everything but it still gives you enough clues so its really easy to tie to the right point in the story. This just adds to the existing storyline.

To be honest, I would love to understand this kind of soulmate world better. I would love to read all the lore about do people believe in this. Or is this just some mystical lore that has gotten lost. Or is this so rare that no one really knows anything. Or just bacisally anything about this. Basically I want a deepdive into this world and its quirkies. Give me everything, thank you.

The MILF Theory (And Why the Internet Got It Wrong) [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot]

The MILF Theory (And Why the Internet Got It Wrong) by pucksandpower 

The internet has decided that Ilya Rozanov is absolutely, definitely, 100% banging a Hollander. 

They’ve got photo evidence. Multiple sightings. Instagram stories from the same café. The man stayed OVERNIGHT at the Hollander residence. 

It’s the most legendary power move in NHL history: seduce your rival’s hot mom to assert dominance. There’s just one tiny problem with this theory. Ilya’s fucking a Hollander, all right. Just … not that one. 

Or in which Ilya’s boyfriend's mother keeps adopting him, the internet keeps assuming the worst, and Shane Hollander is having the worst month of his entire life. At least until he does something that breaks hockey forever.

Why cant fics be just fun? Just some fun, silly things that make you laugh out loud? Something that gives joy in life without any deeper meaning?

This is all that and a little bit more. This is also Shane being mortified (and jealous). Ilya being the evil menace that he loves to be. Yuna and David just going along with the ride. And internet is loving every second of it.

Thats it. There is no deeper meaning. But there doesnt have to be. This can be perfect, awesome, lovely piece of art. Thats it. 

a world brought together as one [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot, nc-17]

a world brought together as one by tofuflower 

Being a beta has always meant safety for Shane Hollander. No expectations, no instincts, no distractions from hockey. 

Unfortunately, he meets Ilya Rozanov. 

Im done with reading all these fics where Shane is omega. Okay. I mostly hate ABO fics anyways, but thats so besides the point. And I do get that that it makes sense for him being an omega. It really does. That fact just doesnt make it any better for me. But I still read them and suffer and whatnot.

But here he is a beta! The important part.

I really like how he is kind of not understanding anything about alphas and omegas. He is just going with the flow and trying to not to get too attached (hah, the jokes). But this just makes me want to see more about the world from betas point of view. Its always alphas and omegas but no one seems to write about betas. And I would love to get lost in that.

This just makes sense on so many level. Thats the thing I really like about this fic. Making sense and having different view on things. 

There is also really smutty sequel that I liked. I do recommend that too. 

freaky [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot]

freaky by ExtraSteps 

Shane is in Ilya's body, desperately avoiding Svetlana Vetrova, throwing out his cigarettes and battling his depression. 

Ilya is in Shane's body, playing with Hayden Pike's children, being smothered with love by Yuna and David Hollander, and wondering why Rose Landry is trying to set him up with her gay actor friend Miles. 

Boston travels to Montreal in two weeks. 

Everything is fine. 

I need more of Svetlana. I need more of super badass Russian woman who doesnt take shit from anyone and can see everything, sense everything, know everything. The most awesome woman on this fucking planet. I  need endless amounts of her. 

Was there something more important in this whole fic? Probably. But let me just fangirl over Svetlana. Yep. 

The PDA Jar [Game Changers, Hollanov, oneshot, Nc-17]

The PDA Jar by OikawaHajime13 

Shane and Ilya have a hard time keeping it professional, and Bood is done with their shit. 

Enter the PDA Jar. 

Every time the team catches Shane and Ilya in a public display of affection, they have to pay a fine.

It feels like in every fic Shane is shy about PDA and trying to limit it. I get that it kind of fits the character but this still hit me even better and I loved this take. Because Ilya is not shy and some of that is suppose to rub off on Shane too. So to me this makes so much sense.

But most of all, this was fun, little fic about these two fuckers in love. Also I liked how in the end this whole thing made the whole team more close and they had fun. Even when it all started with trying to have some limits and rules and make everyone feel better about these two idiots.

I had only one problem with this fic. I was afraid the whole time that it would end. Like I would have loved to read so much more even when the ending was good and this made sense to end there. But the fear was there that this would end badly and would leave me wanting way much more. No clue why I had that going on. But thank god it was for nothing.
