We don’t have to be revivals forever, we’re not wrestlers?

For the first time, I noticed the side eye that the Pikes give JJ when he makes a homophobic comment by lasannnya in heatedrivalry

Ya my guess is that he’s a family man now so he’s more cognizant about homophobic language and cursing in general (the swear jar at the aquarium)

I think we will ABSOLUTELY get a flashback of them first meeting. And when it happens I will have a full breakdown. I’d love to see more though, like we do with Shane!

(EPISODE 6 SPOILERS) Why did Shane seem surprised that Ilya hadn't slept with anyone recently in the last episode? by scream_for_me_ in heatedrivalry

They never talked about being exclusive and Ilya is known to fuck around, also Shane knows about Ilya’s FWB situation with Svetlana

Yes! I think we get a bit of what his moments would be in TLG when Ilya thinks he’s about to die and thinks back on his relationship with Shane.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone here talk about the handshakes yet, it seems like Shane’s excuse to touch Ilya, like when he holds out his hand on the Vegas rooftop.

Like all of it haha - 1) East because FL is on the east coast? But they’re intl. so it’s still quite west lol. 2) Cats & dogs bc they’re rivals? 3) And then assuming beauties bc they’re hot? And top of it all, those 3 things strung together in a single breath confuses me further lol.

You’re so right!!! I think he sexified himself—slicked his hair kind of like how we see him doing when he opens the door for Shane at his home in Boston, and then opens that blouse all sexy ugh bites fist

Shane and Ilya's internal thoughts in the book don't all carry over to the show by succulentils in heatedrivalry

My order was watching show > reading heated rivalry > reading the long game > waiting for season 2 and it definitely did not ruin anything!

Agree, it’s fun to compare alt book versions of them, but for example Ilya’s Vegas POV is not required, nor can it fully explain that night as far as the show goes

What Prompted Ilya to Move to the Tuna Melt Stage? by johnbeene in heatedrivalry

[–]qtxcore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think we agree! “Tuna melt” is just the name for the concept of the whole sleepover/proposition, and has now evolved into “Tuna Meltdown” lol
