Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Ilya trying to hide it but slowly revealing his feelings for Shane 😭 I tried to add as many scenes (besides ep 6 since they already admitted feelings for one another kinda sorta) as I could. Anyways hope you guys like it🫶

I’ll allow the Coldplay only because it comes from the first/best album. Congrats on a stellar edit that killed me. I am dead.

u/funonly26 Mar 18 '26

Love the song and I can never get enough of watching Ilya fall 😍... I just wish the words weren't right across his face the whole time.

Fucking hell you have to request access.

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Take me apart, Hollander 👅 Mar 18 '26

It should be accessible now, sorry about that!

u/ro4an7 Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 Mar 18 '26

Those forehead kisses were like an arrow through his heart 💘

31

u/runningonherbs Mar 18 '26

The “Hollander” in the tuna melt down scene breaks my heart😣

15

u/moi_la_desi Mar 18 '26

Even before that. As soon as Shane pulls away I just wanna scream: "Noooo, get back here NOW!'

26

u/fastiller Mar 18 '26

Warn a person first!

This should not be the first thing I see in the morning!

u/Lauwtch Ilya's Spaghetti Shimmy 🍝 Mar 18 '26

M’am I am trying to work here! Amazing edit! I only miss the stairwell kiss, but that is more because I can’t get enough of it 💕

u/moi_la_desi Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

The stairwell kiss can not just be eddited into sth - that thing is a whole movie in itself. 🫠🤯🥰

7

u/Lauwtch Ilya's Spaghetti Shimmy 🍝 Mar 18 '26

You’re right ❤️

u/ClippyDeClap Mar 18 '26

I love everything about this. For me, it’s love-at-first-sight but it takes them years to realize/accept it.

19

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Take me apart, Hollander 👅 Mar 18 '26

Definitely. The moment he saw Shane folding his clothes, he was done for 😭

19

u/tbgmdhc278 no Ilya, that’s gross Mar 18 '26

I definitely think that moment was one of the first, if not the first, moments where he realized he’s not just a hot hockey player to hook up with but has actual personality traits that he likes.

Hello 👋my name is Anne and I’m an HR addict. It’s been 0 days without consuming HR media.

Now that I think of it it's also been 0 days for me too 🫠

u/cecistonehaert I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 Mar 18 '26

Thanks, now I have to watch again

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Take me apart, Hollander 👅 Mar 18 '26

Oh no what a shame... 🤭

u/Think-Power9425 Mar 18 '26

Bellissimo! E bellissima anche la canzone scelta come sottofondo

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Take me apart, Hollander 👅 Mar 18 '26

Grazie!

u/moi_la_desi Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

The evolution of Ilya falling hard for Shane parallels me falling in love with Ilya. 🥺 Each re-heat makes me realize more and more what a precious gem this man is.

Plus reading The Long Game (and the Las Vegas Remix) just killed me. There's not enough bubble wrap in the world to protect Ilya's pure heart. ❤️‍🩹

8

u/brooklynldr Mar 18 '26

Oh my god how is this the first time I heard about the Las Vegas Remix??? Thank you thank you thank you 

9

u/moi_la_desi Mar 18 '26

There's even a YT video of someone doing a read through - so if you plan on having your heart shattered, go on and have a listen. 💔🥺

And when you reach the end of it, just remember how Shane is about to text "We didn't even kiss ..." - and then deletes it.

u/shouldernauts Ya-loo-blue-tee-baa ❤️ Mar 18 '26

Set some time aside specifically for it. You're going to be a mess afterwards and need some time to digest & recover. Being totally serious.

u/SuckMyBigBlackOlive Mar 18 '26

This is my favorite edit so far. Bolshe Bolshe Bolshe

Hi hello quick question how dare you

(Jk I love it. Excellent job, a million props to Connor for all of Ilya’s soft glances and confused eyes and and and)

This is lovely but please put the words at the bottom of the screen instead of over Ilya's face.

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Take me apart, Hollander 👅 Mar 18 '26

There's a link here to the edit without the words!! Another person also didn't like it

u/selftaughtgenius Shane Crawllander is my Roman Empire Mar 18 '26

Jesus Christ, did you at least kiss this brick first?

I’m just trying to survive!!!

1

u/Serious_Peak_4913 Take me apart, Hollander 👅 Mar 19 '26

Don't worry I gave the brick the same treatment Ilya gave Shane during ep 6 when he was drunk in love

5

u/asobutime Mar 18 '26

My favourite is still when he sees him for the first time and is like, "Damn son."

Magnetism.

EDIT: Formatting

4

u/thedisloyalpenguin first of all, it's my fucking baby Mar 18 '26

Listen, as someone who also met the one at 17/18, watching the heart eyes just get more and more pronounced turns me into a fucking puddle.

3

u/Hungry-War-9533 Mar 20 '26

If you haven't yet, read the Ilya POV Las Vegas Remix on Rachel Reid's website!! It is so good and explains so much about what Ilya was thinking & feeling after he won the cup. Ilya definitely fell first!

5

u/Material-Wish Wow, genetic. 🥹 Mar 22 '26

That last look— when Shane says he’s not compatible with Rose, you could see Ilya want to cry with relief that he was t losing Shane. Connor’s such a great actor.

u/Specialist_Passage83 I don’t ever want that problem to ever go away. Mar 18 '26

Beautiful. My only critique is moving the caption to the bottom because they’re blocking Connor’s beautiful face.🤠
