Summary
Will is seven years old when he listens to a pastor’s homily for the first time.
Children, regardless of the devotion of the homes they are raised in, rarely possess the awareness required to grasp what truly matters. They do not yet know how to listen and look for meaning, for consequence, for substance.
So when Will’s mother elbows Will when he bites his fingernails so much that he draws blood—it’s probably one of the smallest things ever that has led Will to carry a certain ideal his entire life—but Will lifts his head.
And he listens to every word Pastor Jonathan delivers from the pulpit.
“Homosexuality is a sin,” Will recalls the sermon. He didn’t even know what the word homosexuality even meant until Pastor Jonathan opened his mouth.
-
Alternatively; Will Smith hockey has internalized homophobia which is rooted in religious guilt. He discovers what it means to love, nurture his faith, and maintain devoted all while loving a boy.
Will thinks he knows what grace is. But he's yet to even figure it out.

Summary
Danny’s looking at him like he’s crazy. His hair’s dried up into a mess of waves, and there’s some tomato seeds on the corner of his mouth. “You just bailed me out of jail. And you think this is a good idea?”
“I don’t have bad ideas, Fenton. And like you’ve just said, I have collateral on you.”
“So you’re blackmailing me into pretending to date you?”
Tim shrugs. “Or you could just sign the NDA.”
OR
Danny's trying to recover all the shards to an entity's chalice so that it'll stop destroying the zone while tensions rise amongst his subjects- and trying to finish high school.
Tim's juggling his case load, his work as CEO, and does not have time to be embroiled in a sex scandal right now. If that means he has to pretend to date a very suspicious heir to a rival company, then so be it.
It's a mutually beneficial relationship. So what if Tim's becoming a little too intrigued by the illusive, powerful Phantom? So what if Danny can't stand the Justice League for leaving him to deal with all of Amity's problems when he was just 14? That's a superhero thing.
And their fake boyfriend has no clue that they're a superhero.

Summary
“Ilya Rozanov,” Shane repeats slowly, letting himself taste the words. He grins. “Wow. You’re, like, a really good player. How come you’re in Canada for summer camp? Is that weird to ask? Sorry if that’s weird. I just meant-”
Shane is cut off by a hand on his mouth. He flushes.
“Too fast,” Ilya says. “My English… not good.”
“Sorry,” Shane mumbles into Ilya’s hand. Ilya grins and shakes his head, curls dancing, as he pulls his hand away.
“Is okay. Slow words. Okay?”
This year marks thirteen year Shane Hollander's third summer at Coach Marakov's elite hockey training camp. In attendance for the first time: Ilya Rozanov, visiting from Russia. Shane isn't the most sociable, and Ilya's English isn't the greatest, yet the unlikely duo soon become the best of friends.
It's just one summer, but it makes a world of difference.
