Trying to make tracking what fanfics I’ve read less time consuming, I’m still adding fics to SoftGoods but I’m struggling a little to keep on top of it, struggling a bit to keep on top of everything to be honest. Reviews, blog posts, challenges, and just tracking things in general. I love tracking things, it’s one of my favourite things to do, this year is just kicking my ass, and I feel like if I could get on top of it I’d be much happier. So we are going to go with trying to make things more streamlined, won’t be as fancy, but need to do what I need to do to get ahead of things.

Pocketful of Sunshine by TheGreatOwl
Ilya and Shane arrived at the cottage two weeks ago. Post-season relaxation during the summer is usually their favorite time of year, especially after a hard season.
This season was emotionally, physically, and mentally draining. The games were a lot more challenging than typical seasons. A lot more bruises and a lot more time recovering overall. This is the year Ilya and Shane decided they were no longer hiding in the dark. This was their first season publicly as husbands. When they say the first year of marriage is the hardest, add being in the MHL, coming out as gay/bi, starting a charity, and, unfortunately, depression.
Sometimes the best way out of the darkness is a pair of headphones, the love of your husband, and a catchy song

Media Training NOW by hs_01_fl
Ilya Rozanov does what he does best: post on social media and stress out Harris Drover.
The fic starts on New Year’s Day 2024 after Ilya posts an upcoming year’s “enemies” list.
This is a series that alternates between Hockey Husbands + the rest of Centaurs team being insane on the internet, Harris putting them in media training, and it immediately failing as soon as they leave the room.
Basically, it’s just the Cens being absolute menaces!

Shane Hollander: pride of Canada, terror of the Centaurs locker room by sparrow30 for WingsofWriting
Wyatt’s gaze flicked from Hollander to Rozanov – who looked absolutely delighted with this turn of events – and back again. “You two follow playoff traditions as well then?”
Hollander shrugged, still catastrophically casual, “I mean, when we played on different teams we sort of had to. Conflict of interests and all that. But I meant more generally. You know what it’s like, right?”
Wyatt wasn’t sure that he did, and was suddenly very conscious of the fact that he might not be in the least bit emotionally prepared for whatever was about to come out of Hollander’s mouth.
“Like, the other day,” Hollander continued, seemingly unaware of the proverbial bombshell he was about to drop. “Ilya tied me up and edged me for…was it two hours?”
“Three, moyo solnyshko,” Rozanov corrected, sounding like Christmas, his birthday, and the Easter Bunny had all come at once.
Shane Hollander joins the Centaurs, and the team discovers that their Captain might be a certified menace, but his husband is so, so much worse.
OR: five times Shane accidentally terrorizes the Centaurs locker room, and one time he chooses to hold back.

Frozen in time by stargazingstormtrooper92
“It’s snowing. But, it’s the right kind of snow,” Shane says it again, like it is supposed to mean something.
“The right kind of snow?” Ilya repeats slowly.
“Yes,” Shane grins again, kissing Ilya on his shoulder, looking his husband straight in the eyes. Ilya is so confused right now.
“There are right and wrong kinds of snow?” He tries to ask politely because he really wants to go back to sleep but his husband is so happy and he doesn’t want to burst the bubble. Shane enthusiastically nods.
“Yes! You have the awful watery kind, the overfluffy kind and the right kind.”
“And we want the right kind of snow foooor?” Ilya is still looking at Shane like he might be experiencing stroke.
“For snow angels, obviously,” Shane smiles.
“Obviously,” Ilya deadpans.
“Yeah. Obviously.”

Ilya Rozanov vs. The Shayden Fandom by Grocerystoredivorce

“You and Pike? Shane, they are saying you are in love with him.”

It’s a difficult concept for Shane to grasp, taking up space like that. Birthday parties are always so loud and demanding of everyone’s attention, and Shane doesn’t know how to handle it, always stressed that people don’t actually want to be there or are just patronising him. The idea that people want to get together to celebrate Shane, besides his parents and husband, is completely foreign to him. The idea that his hockey team would show up for his birthday is incomprehensible.

Shane Hollander has been making deals with Ilya Rozanov for as long as he can remember. Usually it’s Ilya that comes up with the propositions, and usually they’re bets that Shane is doomed to lose.

Dallas Kent’s teammate makes a bigoted assumption. A very loud, very incorrect assumption. Twitter eats him alive.
Because, yes, Rozanov has slept with a lot of women and they have a lot to say. About consent and check-ins and that accent.

#DontYouDareFuckingFreeMe by Airuna
“We do not say anything about the Hollander situation,” LeClaire tells them even though it sounds like he’s already resigned to what he knows is going to happen.
After all, Roz gets extremely mad whenever it’s brought up. Not that Cliff can blame him, he’s pretty sure that Roz liked Hollander before this (wouldn’t chirp him half as much if he didn’t). Finding out that he’s such a bastard must sting.
Not to mention that Roz does not mess around with people that disrespect girls. Or women. Or kids. Or dogs. Or the elderly (excluding Scott Hunter). Or really anyone, if it’s for petty stupid reasons.
“Of course,” Cliff agrees for both of them since Roz is still too busy texting someone.
It’s apparently not good enough for LeClaire because he asks, “Roz?”
“Just one second,” he answers without raising his eyes from his phone or stopping his typing. “Need to get my Jane to agree with something. She’s very stubborn.”
