"I'm Nurse William Graham RN. I'm the head nurse. They send me all the terrified fresh meat & hard cases who can't be managed by anyone else. Since you're both Dr Lecter, I'd suggest you get used to me, we're going to be seeing a lot of each other. Now I'm gonna approach slowly & unbuckle your mask. If you try to bite me, you won't have the satisfaction of success or a fully functional jaw after, which would be a shame, I do look forward to getting to know you. I'm curious about the man behind the mask. Now I know what you're thinking, that in a one to one fight even fully restrained, very few men of average competence could ever hope to stop you from biting them. Maybe taking taking a chunk out of me would be cathartic for you...and hell it might even be at that, but Doctor you gotta talk to me nice if you want me to let you put your mouth on me."

Summary
Eddie is at a gritty little punk club he kinda loves, the music is loud, nobody bothers him, and the sales come easy. It would be difficult to make the night any better
Until he finds himself arguing with some hot punk. Was this better or worse? He wasn't sure yet
Eddie stretched his legs across the narrow kitchenette, propping his boots up on the fridge, effectively barring the guy's progress towards beer.
He couldn't help himself, he liked to look at his favorite combat boots in close proximity to very hot guys. It was a sickness Eddie enjoyed.
Punk kid looked out from under his thin strip of black hair, hands held up in an exaggeratedly annoyed demand for an explanation. The movement reminded Eddie of someone but he couldn't quite remember who. Someone annoying probably. The guy huffed without really turning to face him.
"We have a problem Dio?"
Eddie looked down at his favorite very awesome most beloved Dio t-shirt, suddenly absolutely outraged. How dare this hot shiny jerk besmirch his beloved Ronnie James Dio?!?
Hell no

Summary
The battle is over, Vecna isn't quite dead but Eddie Munson is.
Eddie is gone forever & Steve is spiraling in the aftermath of a loss more profound then anyone knows... and if the idea of Eddie still being there with him somehow comforts him in his weakest moments... Well no one needed to know that but him.
Eddie's whisper of approval in his imagination is the only fuel, the only comfort he needs. He has to do it right this time, for Eddie, for himself.
If no one understood, well then this journey would be between him, his growing album collection, & imaginary Eddie Munson... for now
fix it
Punk!Steve

Wolfvogelstraße 84, 10707 Berlin by variazionibelliche
Fandoms: Game Changers | Heated Rivalry - All Media Types
26 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
The nights were already cold and Berlin's streets were poorly lit, but Shane didn't mind. Berlin wasn't a pretty city; apartment blocks repeated themselves in washed-out mustard tones, aseptic blues and greens, off-putting reds. The windows of the newer buildings were so small he wondered if those rooms even got any light.
Now that he thought about it, he could barely remember Hannover's architecture. He'd never paid attention. Hannover simply was.
How many things in his life simply 'were'? When was the last time something had demanded his full attention?
Or: Shane and Ilya meet in an erotic massage parlor in Berlin in 2012. They're both sex workers.
Or: an exploration of desire as a world-building force.

Bookmarker's Notes
How have I not already bookmarked this one? I really really thought I had. One of my absolute favorites, such a beautifully clear and intentional voice, the narrative style informs story in a really specific and emotionally resonant way. The feelings and sensory experience is so visceral and beautiful and their emotional evolution feels real.
Excellent read

Summary
The best way to describe this work, I think, is as a novelization of the television series told from Ilya Rozanov's point of view. What happens in the series will happen, more or less, in this work.
Please note, I did read both Heated Rivalry and The Long Game by Rachel Reid, but that was some time ago and my recollection of them is spotty at best. Because they are novels and this is a written story, I did NOT consult the books in order to reduce the chance that I would inadvertently plagiarize them. That means that where the television series leaves a gap in the narrative, I may fill it with something very different than what happens in the books. We will all end up at the cottage, but some of us are taking a slightly different path to get there.
This novelization means that potentially triggering things that happen in the series (like mental health issues) will happen in this work. NOTE, HOWEVER, no new issues will be added in this work. No one dies. No one is outed. No one is assaulted. This is just the story of the show as if it were from Ilya's point of view.

One of my all time favorite Hollanov stories. I love this characterization of Ilya very much

Summary
After I retold the television show Heated Rivalry from the point of view of Ilya Rozanov, my brain decided I needed to write the exact same thing, but from the point of view of Shane Hollander, so I not only did I need to match the show, but also my own prior work. WHEE!
So that's what this is: a novelization of the television show that is ALSO a companion piece to Bad Thing.

One of my all time favorite Hollanov stories. Immaculate from beginning to end. If you're wondering about the novelization of the show aspect specifically, yes it's worth it. Yes it's worth it 🔥

It starts in an elevator by Sporkess
Fandom Game Changers Series - Rachel Reid, Heated Rivalry (TV)
27 May 2026
Summary
Yuna getting stuck in an elevator with Ilya for two hours doesn't change everything... but it changes some things. Like Yuna getting to be on a first-name basis with Ilya a full year before her son is.
(Part 2 (the smutty part) is not actually essential reading if you are not in the mood for smut!)

One of my all time favorite canon lateral au's
Both Shane's autistic transition anxiety and difficulty changing course and his bamf decisive brilliant loyal jock natures are here
Maybe my favorite Shane Characterization
Nobody is being infantalized
The parts that are supposed to be emotionally suspenseful are nail biting, the comedy is hilarious, and the emotional bits are gorgeous
Really fantastic writing, so worth reading the whole series
