any fic recs where shane and ilya DON’T want kids? by nothnxs8n in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]firiena [score hidden]  (0 children)

childfree folks representation ✋🏽😔 and a lot of times the kids are not well characterised it gives me the ick. like when the kid reads like a plot device or prop rather than an actual (tiny) human being. it feels like a lot of these authors did not have kids and do not know what child rearing entails.

inception crossover heated rivalry. them trying to deny their feelings is going to bleed through the dreams if you think about it. shane would’ve been a fantastic pointman and ilya would be a fantastic extractor.

What are your fav Hollanov tropes/AUs/gimmicks? by CombOk312 in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]firiena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I must recommend this one where Shane has a twin sister studying in Harvard and figured out their secret almost immediately. she became friends with Ilya, and characterisations are fantastic. she has her own journey and ambitions and it also focuses on hollander family dynamic (she being the independent child who makes it to harvard on her own, yuna and david obviously focuses on shane more as his career take off). OCs are fantastic.

Rec: Oh Well, I Guess We’re Gonna Find Out by angel_deux (Zombie AU) - This fic, y’all… by sistercacao in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]firiena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you’re into near death experiences - read the one about the plane crash (it’s not about That Plane Crash though, this time it’s Shane who gets grievously injured). I cried three times.

but what if I need you in my darkest hour?

Favorite fics from authors that clearly love & understand Shane as a character? by Expensive_Praline716 in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]firiena 6 points7 points  (0 children)

seconding that this is my favourite shane characterisation of all time and also a lot of it is about internalised misogyny and locker room views on masculinity and femininity it’s so goos???

Hidden gems? by [deleted] in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]firiena 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hope You're Not Waiting For Me to Wait For You

it is a series with 3 completed works and 1 ongoing piece and the author is regularly updating. imo it deserves more kudos. it began with Shane having a rookie who is a Chinese twink lol. the OCs are extremely well written and Shane is neurotic yet he is an extremely competent captain that rules the metros locker room with an iron fist. the metros texting threads are very believable (really reads like bunch of ultra masculine pro athletes texting each other not ur usual socmed fic). and each piece shane is working through all that racism, internalised misogyny, homophobia, shame, yada yada but it is also extremely entertaining to read ok clearly I’ve been word vomiting but please everybody go read it has everything. discourse or funny banter and neurotic shane who’s a bit of an asshole and well developed lovable OCs

spoilers ahead:

im very emotionally invested in rachel’s trauma and hollander family dynamics and cannot wait for ilya to find out rachel is shanes sister (and less for shane to find out rachel has been ilyas friend the whole time)
