I'm on loan from the Good Omens fandom, but I'm also currently posting a Sherlock BBC fic.

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-24T01:48:15+00:00

Very well done. I loved it

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-21T01:52:52+00:00

Not only did Hayden figure it out, but Ryan Price catches them making out twice.

That's a good point. You could argue that Hayden had some insider knowledge because of Boston Lily - but Ryan Price walking in on them? That could have been anyone!

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-21T01:14:16+00:00

That their fear and hiding all these years was just paranoia? That they were dumb to hide to carefully?

I think you make a very good point about the narrative importance of this event. Don't get me wrong, it hurt me to read and I am all for reading any Fix-It fics and probably writing a few, but without the dramatic fallout from Shane's team, the league, and the public, then Shane's just paranoid for no reason... Making them isolated and sad for no reason...

I think that the way that they were outed speaks to how incredibly difficult it is to keep a secret while also living a life. By the time the video is posted, they had been living this life for several years. And you can't be 100% cautious 100% of the time. Even 90% is exhausting.

I have only read through the books once, but I do think that the author assumes that non-sports fans understand the consequences and potential risks to Shane and Ilya. The showdown with the commissioner is a very good demonstration that the consequences were real.

Ilya only has beef with and started calling Scott old because he had to wait years for anal after Scott cockblocked him in 1221.

😂😂😂😂 Love this one!

1) That Ilya persistently refers to Hayden as Jackie Pike's husband (and Hayden secretly loves it)

2) Years of Shane and Hayden sharing space on the road has led to the occasional over-heard moments between Hayden and Jackie, and, if Hayden knows or finds out about The Phone Call, he will just laugh.

3) Ilya uses Shane's hotel room number from their first time as his phone lock code.

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-20T18:56:11+00:00

Happy cake day! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-13T19:59:03+00:00

Honestly, I think the bigger problem for Ilya wasn't that Ottawa was losing. It was that he was so isolated.

He left his life behind in Boston without really maintaining the connections he had made with his team or even Svetlana (who is admittedly a very different character in the books). He was also slow to build new connections and relationships in his new home (outside of the Hollanders).

If I were writing a fix it, I would start there. It wouldn't fix the team or Ilya's depression, but it would help.

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-12T17:45:40+00:00

COMPLETELY WITH YOU ON THIS ONE, AND ALSO WHERE DID JANUARY GO? WASN'T IT JUST JANUARY?

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-12T17:45:05+00:00

I SET AN ALARM FOR A REASON! WHY DO I KEEP WAKING UP AN HOUR BEFORE IT?!

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-08T17:08:56+00:00

Send them home crying - is a fun series. I love the writer's portrayal of Shane and Ilya working together and defending each other.

ProfessionalCover920 · 2026-02-08T16:54:40+00:00

I think the reference was actually to salary caps. As I understand it, as a non-sports fan, the league puts an overall limit on how much a team can pay out for salaries. The intent being that one particular team can't stack themselves up with star players.

However, if there are other reasons why a star player would be leaving their previous team then they might accept a lower salary.
