Just posted Chapter Nine of my #hollanov long fic. Less angst this time! Shane makes some friends, and Ilya tries to steer the relationship in a new direction: https://t.co/dtZLsMRErZ
@danmei_rot There's pictures but they're not showing up for you! Either an internet issue or a vpn issue- could be the photo hosting site I use is blocked wherever you are? Should look like this. The story is still readable without pictures but obviously not as good
@mikadontyoudare He talks about how media pressure and being worried about how he looked was a big part of it. Losing weight also made his coaches happy, in some ways improved his performance but was very unhealthy long term (he had bulimia) name's Andrew Flintoff
@mikadontyoudare Even if the behaviours are initially driven by the desire to be better at a sport, it's very easy for some people to slip into unhealthy thought patterns about how they look. There's a male British cricket player who's talked about having an eating disorder
@bigolfreakkkkkr The og ad campaign lives rent free in my head, this is sooo sexy. I feel like every year at the cottage Ilya secretly prays this will happen for real, but Shane is much too militant about sunscreen for Ilya's dreams to come true
#hollanov#HeatedRivalry 'Long Lease' (Brick fic🧱 ) (1/15)
Sometimes, Shane lets himself think that they can keep this up forever.
It’s usually at times like this, when Rozanov is still warm in the bed next to him, and his head is too floaty to kill the bad ideas.
Shane lets the fantasy fade, as he stretches back in Rozanov’s sheets. They don’t usually hook up during the day, so the rules have shifted again, but he’s pretty sure he should start putting clothes on soon.
