    Summary

    Shane knew he was like his mother. It was unavoidable. No one looked at the two of them and doubted the genetic connection, let alone when either of them spoke.

    All this to say, he was used to being known as Yuna Hollander's son. It was something he hardly thought about. He had gotten equally used to people not recognizing him as David Hollander's son.

    This all together should have softened the jolt of shock when Ilya got mistaken for being David Hollander's son, when Shane had rarely had that experience before.

    It did not.

    Or: since everyone in fic says shane looks just like his mom, i decided he was going to have *feelings* about it and what's that? ilya coming in to make things emotional in a new way? oh no! :)

    Summary

    “It really fucking hurt to just be ignored for six months.”

    Ilya looks at him again, nodding as he runs his finger along Shane’s bare collarbone. He shifts so that he’s lying beside Shane more than hovering on top of him, but keeps touching him and doesn’t go far.

    “You can call me sensitive or whatever, but I don’t think I can do this if you’re just going to ignore me for another six months or however long after we say goodbye tonight.” Shane continues, trying to subtly wipe his wet eyes but of course Ilya notices.

    “Hollander-” He reaches up to wipe the tears away, but Shane lightly pushes his hand away and shakes his head.

    “I guess I’m not cut out for casual.” He whispers. “Because this has never really felt like nothing to me, and I can’t pretend that it is. You aren’t nothing to me.”

    or, the boys talk in Vegas because they can't fight their feelings anymore.

    Summary

    “Ah.”

    “‘Ah’,” Ilya repeats, giving him a look before he looks back to the tidily stacked frozen mouse packages in the freezer and makes a face as a little badly-hidden shudder moves through him. “Why the fuck do you have mice in your freezer, Shane? You are doing serial killer shit now? This is why you have cottage in the middle of nowhere? For serial killer things?”

    “It’s for Spaghetti,” Shane says.

    Ilya gives him an absolutely horrified look at that and turns a little green, which makes him remember that Spaghetti isn’t just his snake's name.

    “Not food!” He rushes to explain. “Not food spaghetti! Snake Spaghetti!”

    “What the fuck are you even saying right now,” Ilya says, looking honestly a little concerned that Shane might have something going wrong in his head.

    (Distancing himself from almost twenty years of owning a snake, Shane can indeed see why this situation might be a little alarming for someone on the outside looking in.)

    (It also clues him in to the fact that maybe it’s not just Spaghetti who should have gotten a little adjustment period.)

    (in which i give shane allergies AND a snake)
