    Somehow, the world doesn’t end when the girl dies.

    It doesn’t end when the boy dies, either.

    ~

    Or, the 74th Games end differently.

    Haymitch has, in some way or other, always pitied the winners. He pities himself.

    Summary

    On the screen was perhaps the most confusing headline Shane had seen in all his years in the spotlight.

    ‘Is Montreal’s Shane Hollander Having an Illicit Love Affair with Boston’s Cliff Marlow?’

    Shane blinked twice, his mind slamming to a halt as he read and re-read the words. “What the fuck?”

    “You are unbelievable.”

    “But you love me very much, so what does this say about you?”

    “I don’t know, it kind of looks like I love Cliff Marlow.”

    Summary

    Most days it felt like Alexei didn’t want a younger brother at all—like he would have been happier if Ilya had never been born, or if he’d gotten a brother that was less clingy, less soft.

    But Alexei could’ve pushed him down the stairs and broken every bone in his body, and Ilya would’ve probably begged him to do it again, if it meant he’d spend more time with him.

    or: Ilya's father doesn't die during the 2016/2017 season. His brother does.

    Summary

    There is a whole life Ilya spent running from himself, loving quietly and solemnly and only in darkness, only when he would allow himself to. The gilded cage Moscow had built around him as a child seemed to adjust to his growing body, and follow him all the way across the world.

    “I am so in love with you, and I don’t know what to do about it,” he near whispers into his phone, the admission feeling like a personal failure, somehow.

    Or:

    Ilya Rozanov loves Moscow. That doesn't stop it from hating him.

    Summary

    Shane moves to Ottawa after leaving Montreal and finds himself treating Ilya’s house like somewhere he has only been allowed to visit.

    Then he starts noticing the second nightstand, the empty shelves, the extra hooks by the door, and the kitchen wide enough for two.

    It turns out Ilya had been making room for him long before Shane knew how to stay.

    OR
    Shane thinks he is moving into Ilya’s house.
    Ilya has been quietly building them a home for years.

    But wanting did not erase the grief. It only gave the grief somewhere to sit.
