BTMH: Chapter 4: New Coach

Y/N’s phone chimed, and she raised an eyebrow before picking it up.

“Huh, Nishigori?” She said. Once she read the notification closely, she practically jumped into the air, mortified by what she saw. “What!”

Her phone showed a 4:43 YouTube video titled [Katsuki Y/N] Tried to Skate Seonghwa’s FS Program [Stay Close to Me]. Y/N trembled as she looked at it.

Through the speaker, Takeshi said, “Y-Y/N, I’m sorry. My kids uploaded the video, and it went viral.”

“How could you use my account without permission again?!” Yuuko yelled in the background, loud enough for Y/N to hear it.

“But all the skater otaku will love it,” Lutz said.

“Just delete it, okay?!” Yuuko said.

“Goodnight,” Y/N said before hanging up the phone. She dropped it, before falling asleep on the bed. She started to snore right as Minako burst into her room.

“What’s with that video? It’s being retweeted everywhere!” Minako said.

Meanwhile, Jongho leaned against the rink boards, looking at his phone along with Mila, Yakov, and Felix.

“That Y/N is an idiot,” Jongho said.

“Hey, Jongho! Don’t slack off!” Yakov shouted.

Seonghwa was laying on the couch in his apartment, Makkachin resting on his chest. He held his phone in his hand, watching the video of Y/N skating his free program. He looked up, clearly deep in thought.

Y/N was asleep in her room while the news played on the TV at Yu-topia Katsuki.

“Kyushu faces a sudden cold wave. It was supposed to be a good day for viewing cherry blossoms, but there was a massive snowfall.”

“Y/N! Don’t hole up in your room!” Hiroko yelled, waking Y/N up.

Y/N sat up and adjusted her glasses, running her hand through her hair.

“Help shovel snow!” Hiroko shouted.

“Snow?” Y/N questioned, raising an eyebrow. Last time she checked it wasn’t snowing. Could the weather have changed so drastically while she was sleeping? It wouldn’t surprise her, but she just didn’t expect it. She got on her knees on her bed and opened the curtains, surprised by all the snow. “Wow, what the… It’s already April, too. What’s on the news?”

She picked up her phone and realized she had shut her phone off. “Oh, yeah… I turned it off so I wouldn’t get calls.”

She shrugged her shoulders before getting out of her bed. She got dressed in some warmer clothes before grabbing the shovel and heading to the front door. She heard a dog and raised an eyebrow. ‘Whose dog is that?’ She thought. She opened the door and her eyes widened when she saw a poodle in front of her, one that looked just like Seonghwa. “S-Seonghwa?” She asked.

The dog, who she’d later discover was Makkachin, wagged his tail and leaped onto Y/N, knocking her down instantly.

“Nope!” Y/N shouted. She was still in shock from being knocked over by the giant dog. That wasn’t what she expected to happen that day.

Makkachin began to lick her face, and Y/N tried to turn her face away to avoid being licked by the dog.

“He’s much bigger than Seonghwa…Huh? Could he be… No, it can’t be,” she said.

‘Y/N here! Back when Yuuri and I got our poodle, Seonghwa, we picked one that looked like Seonghwa’s poodle, Makkachin. Seonghwa was almost an exact copy of Makkachin, although he was a bit smaller. You could easily get the two confused if you didn’t know the dogs before having to pick which was which. This was why I was so confused when I saw Makkachin.’

“Y/N, isn’t he just like Seonghwa? He came with a really good-looking foreign guest! He’s in the hot spring right now!” Toshiya said.

Y/N sweat dropped. A dog that looked just like Seonghwa… A really good-looking foreign guest… It couldn’t be… There was no way.

“Uh… why is Seonghwa Nikiforov in our hot spring?” Yuuri yelled from the men’s section of the bath house.

Y/N froze in her spot before she finally came back to reality and scrambled to her feet, almost falling in the process. She had remembered that the men’s section of the hot spring had been closed that day, which meant no other men except Seonghwa would be in the hot spring.

“Y/N! What’s wrong?” Toshiya asked.

Y/N rushed past some tables, knocking them over. She ran through the hot tub room, stopping to wipe the fog off her glasses, then continued to run through the doors to the outdoor hot spring. She saw Yuuri standing still, looking absolutely flabbergasted. She stood next to him and looked flabbergasted as well. Throughout all of this Seonghwa was casually soaking in one of the hot springs.

“Se-Seonghwa…Why are you here?” Y/N asked, unsure as to why this god of a man was at her hot spring.

“Y/N…do you think he saw the video?” Yuuri whispered to her.

Her eyes widened and she face palmed. The video, she had forgotten about the video. Why else would he have been there? He wouldn’t fly all the way to Japan just to get a nice soak in a hot spring. “I forgot about the video,” she whispered back.

Seonghwa decided that he had done enough soaking and started to stand up. Y/N realized he was standing up and went to cover her eyes. She wasn’t in the mood to get flashed. He smiled widely before waving his hand fancily. “Y/N, starting today, I’m your coach. I’ll make you win the Grand Prix Final,” He said.

Y/N barely opened her hands to make sure she wouldn’t be flashed by anything. Once she confirmed she wouldn’t be, she took her hands down. She practically gulped when she saw him. He winked at her and her eyes widened. “Huh? What?!” Y/N basically shrieked.

‘He was a genius who never failed to surprise me.’

[faakeid]

Can you recommend me some good tv shows or movies that get you hooked

Wow, I’m surprised to find a gem in my ask box, thank you for that anon~. I will separate the list by types of media (movie/TV series) so it can be easier to classify. 

And they will have different styles, so you can just look for something that fits your mood

TV Series

Sharp Objects: I love Amy Adams. She’s such a queen and the roles she gets are superb. This series is based on a book of the same name written by the author of Gone Girl. It’s about a journalist who has a lot of traumas and needs to go back to her hometown to report some murders that are happening there. The vibe of this series is really good. If you like mystery/suspense this is a good catch. Just has one season, so you can marathon it well (mystery/drama/suspense. TW to self harm).

Mindhunter: I really like serial killer stories and this is based in real life events. Basically it show how the perception we have now of serial killers started to exist, in terms of how now the police tries to understand the mind of the person. So we see a lot of real life serial killers portraited there and mixes of the main characters personal lives. I didn’t watch the second season yet, but the first one got me hooked well. It’s not fightening, but it may describe some unsettling scenes, so if you are sensitive just ignore this one;

100 Days of My Prince: I’m just enjoying the opportunity to mention this drama and I know I’m cheating but idc. I don’t care much about kdramas and I’m not recommending this just because Kyungsoo is in it. Far from it. I’m doing it because I started watching it at 2 pm and finished at 11 pm of the same day (with my hack techniques but ok) bc I just couldn’t stop. Loved the Woon Deuk/ Lee Yeol and Hongshim, the side characters, the villains, the plot. I admit the last episode was weak compared with the rest but not enough to not recommend this and want to watch it again. (mystery/romance/drama)

Dark: OMG THIS IS PERFECT. AMAZING. NO WORDS. If you love time traveling and just stuff that will mindfuck your brain, GIVE IT A CHANCE. I was traveling at the time I started to watch this masterpiece and I gave up many opportunities of sightseeing to watch the two seasons. Yes, it’s that good (mystery/time travel/mind fuck).

The Perfectionist: I’m recommending this more for the Pretty Little Liars nostalgia than because of it’s quality and because I got hooked by it. There’s also the book, but the series makes a link with PLL when they put Alison DiLaurentis as a main character. There’s some references, mystery, some romance too. A similar formula. But you can give it a try, it makes no harm (suspense/mystery/romance/drama/teen);

Banana Fish (ANIME): ok, I know it’s an anime but it has 24 episodes and a good story. It was designed by the same studio that did Yuuri on Ice and you can see the similarities on the drawing style. The characters are catchy, the plot instigates you to keep watching the next until the end. The second half of it didn’t please me TOO much, but it’s still really good. It mentions some heavy themes like minor prostitution, but I like the way this subject is shown. (action/mafia/drama).

MOVIES

Joker: because WHY NOT. This movie is just too good. Period. Could feel how raw Joaquin Phoenix was during his interpretation, the themes spoken without being sappy, the catharsis. Phenomenal even if you don’t like super hero movies. This isn’t even a super hero movie but ok.

Doukyuusei: it’s so sweet, so pure, it makes me want to fall in love every time. It’s an anime beautiful portraited and just beautiful, tender, soft. I recommend reading the manga that fills out a few blanks the movie has tho (anime/romance/”yaoi”).

The Lobster:  Really good. It’s a dystopic romance, which discuss about it and the lack of it. The messages it has touched my heart tenderly, it can be raw but beautifully raw. Loved it (drama/romance/dystopic);

Get Out: watched three times and it gives you an uncomfortable feeling you know? Of knowing that something will happen, something is wrong and nothing is right. Loved the acting and the way the tension is built (suspense/terror [sort of]);

Batman Begins: that will be the last superhero movie I recommend. I know everyone LOVES dark knight and I like it too, sort of. But everyone seems to sleep on Batman Begins???? Unacceptable. The atmosphere, how they built Bruce Wayne/Batman duality, Gothan being like a living being. It marked me more than the dark knight and you can see it became an inspiration to other movies that came after that (action/super hero).

Donnie Darko: one of my favorite movies of all time. Donnie is weird, but I think everyone can see a bit of themselves on him. The soundtrack is amazing, right gold from the 80s (weird/paralel universes).

American Psycho: a rich mothefucker is surrounded by other rich mothefuckers who compete between themselves to see who’s richer. What could go wrong? A classic and still have messages for us today without being whiny and political correct (terror/slasher/crazy shit).

Moulin Rouge: the last one because I want to give other options and this is an amazing musical/romance story. Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman make such a couple here it warms and hurts my soul every time. 

[kevystel]

even the people trying to fit viktuuri into straight couple tropes can’t decide whether viktor is the Clingy Dramatic Wife™ or the lazy husband who doesn’t do household chores and that, personally, warms the cockles of my heart

[fangirlandiknowit101]

For the writer's ask game, All Odd numbers 😁 no need to answer all if too many. Just wanna hear ur ideas on somee 😁imiss your fanficssss

omg idk if i love you or hating for asking so many questions in one goXD Aww i’m still writing, just veeery slowly... and i’ve had a few very rough weeks (mostly bc of work) so i haven’t had much energy or motivation at all - trying to get back into it so i can write the whole weekend!

1.  Do you listen to music when you write?

Sometimes. It depends! Sometimes it helps get into the mood or avoid distraction, but sometimes the music makes me think of other plot ideas which is highly distracting *sweats* Lately, i’ve listened a lot to imagine dragons while writing!

3.  Computer or pen and paper?

computer. i have some notebooks with old stuff written down, barely readable. why did i write plotlines in pink?? can’t read it at all lol

5.  How much writing do you get done on an average day?

haha.. on average it’s like, nothing. but if i actually have time to write that day, it can be anything from 200 words to 4,000. usually i don’t get to more than 4K in one day for some reason (unless i switch fics to write on lol). maybe 1,000 words is a fairly accurate average!

7.  Standalone or series?

usually standalones. i’ve only written one sequel in my life and it’s not even finished (Missing pieces)

9.  Current WIP

The sun within me, Lessons in love, For You My Sun, Sugar Star are the ones waiting for new chapters. i’ve got a couple unpublished/unfinished WIPs in my folder... we’ll see if i manage to finish them at some point but i don’t really dare to describe them in case someone would actually want to read them

11.  Books and/or authors who influenced you the most

hmm tough question. i grew up reading authors like David Eddings, Eoin Colfer, Tamora Pierce, i went down and checked my bookcase and those three are actually the ones still on display haha. of course i read books like harry potter and narnia etc. too. lots of fantasy basically - and lots and lots of horse books, but i don’t think you can tell in my writing lol. Ender’s game by Orson Scott Card is a favorite, as well as the hobbit and The name of the wind by Patrick Rothfuss. when i studied Finnish in university i had to branch out and read books i would never choose myself, and that really influenced me to broaden my perspective so to say. last book i read was probably Wayward son by Rainbow Rowell (i’m a sucker for sad gay vampires apparently). i also read a ton of murder mysteries like agatha christie when i was younger.

plus, all the manga i read - dragon ball and naruto and love hina and yaoi and god knows what

13.  Describe your writing process from idea to polished

oh dear. i usually get an idea that goes sth like “wouldn’t it be hilarious if...” and then it spirals out of control. like, my first long fanfic, Results of a shitty day, was literally me saying “you know what? i want to write a long drama fic like all those other cool authors do” and there was no plan besides at all at first.

i tend to just write a first chapter and then have a general idea of what i want to explore - a certain character growing a certain way, or a certain trope, or just the one scene that won’t go away. For The sun within me, it was literally “hey what if i wrote naruto and sasuke in the road to ninja universe” and for Lessons in love it was “man i really want a fic where Yurio is Viktor’s son and they’re fanboys of Yuuri’s skating”, and me rambling to a friend in the car about it until i was forced to sit down and write it. i definitely make up the plot as i go. every time i decide the plot in advance i end up changing it anyway (yes, this happens even for oneshots sometimes). i love planning though - so much that i constantly re-plan the stories and plan the chapter while writing it too. 

15.  How do you deal with writer’s block?

badly. i’m a procrastinator. usually i switch between stories, if that doesn’t work, i try to write sth new, usually that doesn’t work and i end up reading fics until i’m convinced i can never write as well as other people can. and then i just have to take a break until my brain goes ping! and i can write again.

17.  What writing habits or rituals do you have?

i think the only habit i have is getting easily distracted. *cough*

19.  How do you keep yourself motivated?

i’m constantly writing in my head - daydreaming if you want to call it that. typing is very difficult, but i’m usually motivated by the fact that there’s nothing better than to sit down after a long day and just enjoy a really good fic about your OTP, and since people enjoy my writing i can’t just quit and rob them of this. i can’t just enjoy fandom without paying back when i actually have the possibility to do so. it usually works!! also, when i type, the story takes shape in a way it doesn’t in my head, which is actually really cool so i read my own stuff now and then just to remind me of this. 

21.  Who is/are your favourite character(s) to write?

Sasuke

23.  Favourite author

hmm i don’t have just one. or do they mean fanfic author? well i wouldn’t be able to choose either way!

25.  Favourite part of writing

when i manage to type a scene the way i pictured it in my head. and when i just write without a plan and things start to make sense!

27.  Favourite line/scene

actually, every single scene in The sun within me is my favorite lol

29.  Favourite villain

does Sasuke count? no? i’ll say Baz in the Carry On series

31.  Least favourite part of writing

the first sentence of a fic or chapter. getting started is the hardest!!

33.  Have you ever killed a main character?

i wrote a drabble with naruto and sasuke in the afterlife once. i don’t think i’ve actually killed anyone???

35.  What scene/story are you least looking forward to writing?

the next chapter for Lessons in love is giving me a lot of trouble currently :(

37.  First sentence or your current WIP

This is the first sentence of chapter 16, Lessons in love: Their last full day in Hasetsu passes in a blur.

And this is the first sentence if a yoi smut fic i’ll post when i finally finish ch 16 for LiL:  The metro is always crowded at this time, and Yuuri hates it.

Don’t tell anyone i’m working on yet another smut fic for yoi.

Aaaand this is the first sentence of a sasnar fic i’m writing on when i’m too tired to actually write anything seriously:  Sasuke was surprised to find that he was not the only one to be summoned to the Hokage’s office.

I know it was an earlier question, but i actually have something like 17 WIPs in my WIP folder that are not posted in any part yet, of which most will probably never see the light of day. 

39.  Weirdest character concept you’ve ever had

hmm i don’t know

41.  Any advice for new/beginning/young writers?

i have much advice. but i don’t think any of it is very original. the most important thing - there’s no such thing as failure when you’re writing fanfic. write what you want and when you want, the only way to get better is to keep writing! i just re-read an old story to see if it was worth editing and copying over onto ao3, and realized i had used the word “pinkette” to describe sakura. we all start somewhere... and if you ever look back on old fics, focus on how much you enjoyed writing the fic, not if it’s good or not!!

43.  What do you do if/when characters don’t follow the outline?

if they don’t, it’s generally because they’re right and i’m not. forcing them back into the outline only makes for awkward writing. i always go along with it to see where it goes - sometimes it ends up somewhere much better than planned, sometimes you realize you’ve made mistakes way back in the fic and now you’re stuck with the choice of changing the plot or going back to rewrite. 

45.  How much world building do you do?

i actually hate world building. and describing things like scenery and places and clothes. i’ve had to really force myself to work on it. but i also make sure that i only give the absolute necessary information and then slip in the rest in bits and pieces where it fits. but since i mostly write in already set worlds, it’s usually not that necessary. 

47.   Best way to procrastinate

look at fics and put them in my marked for later and then procrastinate reading them by working on WIPs that are not my published WIPs and then procrastinate those WIPs by finding new fics to read and then maybe re-read my own fics. oh, and scrolling through social media

(i don’t actually have a lot of time to procrastinate bc it’s usually work-take care of horse-shower and dinner-sleep)

49.  Which character would you most want to be friends with, if they were real?

Phichit. so much fun!!!

Wow, that was a lot of questions and a lot of fun!! Sorry for the super long post you have to scroll by lol

Thank you for asking!!!

mood for today: yuuri softly tracing his fingertips over the shape of victor’s lips and victor’s smile which is just as soft and heart-shaped as it always is when he tells yuuri he loves him without actually saying the words, and yuuri touches it lightly with that delightful hint of disbelief that this is his life now until that sweet smile on victor’s lips quirks into something more playful the moment victor takes yuuri’s wrist and kisses every single finger in return for their tender touch and yuuri’s heart feels full to bursting with sweet, soft love that he knows is mutual and wow, that is so amazing

[paxohana]

Simple birthday prompt for Viktor because I'm out of ideas to send you again. 😅 So Viktor has to work on his birthday because for some reason, the work suddenly decides to pile up (wasn't his fault) and he's kind of miserable but his husband and Yuri plan a dinner with all his favorites and decide to have dinner as a family. Of course Otabek is there too, mostly for support (and Yuri), because he's family now. 😉

This prompt is REALLY old, but I’ve been struggling with how to work with it.  It finally came to me.

The drive home from Integral went quicker than expected since no one was on the roads.  It wasn’t from the moderate snow that flitted down from the sky, but it was Christmas.

More importantly, it was his birthday.

Viktor was in a sour mood since he and Sasha had to put in overtime on the holiday.  He hated bringing Sasha in since she had young children, but she said she didn’t mind a few hours.  They pored over the list of manuscripts that had been lost in a database transfer and sent emails to the corresponding authors.  Several had replied to him, wondering why he was working on Christmas.  Bernard’s response had him chuckling, the author telling Viktor to get the stick out of his ass and get home to Yuuri along with a very happy birthday wish.  After promising to have lunch later that week, Viktor sent an email back to Bernard and turned his laptop off.

Giving Sasha a hug and a kiss, Viktor bid her farewell along with Christmas wishes for Anthony and the kids.  He hurried home to salvage what he could of his day but wasn’t expecting much.  Yuuri and Yuri along with Otabek were going to the Katsukis for dinner that evening.  The invitation was extended to him after work, but Viktor just wanted to go home and relax.  

When he pulled into the driveway, Viktor thought something was amiss.  He would have figured the neighbor used his property for his guests again, but Viktor recognized the vehicles.  Glancing at the time on his dashboard, his confusion grew even more when he realized they were supposed to be halfway across town.

“Honey?” Viktor called out, “Are you home?”

Yuuri came out of the kitchen and smiled brightly, giving Viktor a kiss when he reached him.  Viktor placed his hands on Yuuri’s hips, pulled him closer and deepened the kiss.  After feasting on the other’s lips for a moment, Yuuri pulled back and placed his hands on the sides of Viktor’s face.

“Happy birthday, Love,” Yuuri said, pecking Viktor’s lips once more.

“Thanks,” Viktor said, “I thought you were going to be at Mom’s and Dad’s.”

“Just a ploy,” Yuuri confessed, “We wanted to keep it a surprise so we would have plenty of time to prepare one of your favorite meals.”

“Really?” Viktor asked, perking up for the first time that day.

“Really.  Yuri even made the pink lemonade that you love.”

“Wow,” Viktor said, running a hand through his hair, “This is...wow.”

“Why don’t you get your ass in here and see how wow it is!” Yuri shouted from the kitchen.

“I think that’s our cue,” Yuuri said, taking Viktor’s hand and leading him to the kitchen.

Viktor greeted Otabek when he entered the room and asked how school had been going. He hadn’t had time to catch up with his brother’s boyfriend in a while and he enjoyed Otabek’s company.  After sitting down next to Yuuri, Viktor held his hand while Yuri set the dishes on the table, ready to be served.  Viktor was impressed his brother had taken on Beef Wellington, but from the smell and appearance, Yuri had succeeded in the challenge.

“Thanks, everyone,” Viktor said, looking from person to person at the table, “This means so much to me.”

“Happy birthday, old man,” Yuri said, grinning at him.

“Happy birthday, Viktor,” Otabek said.

“Happy birthday, Love,” Yuuri whispered, kissing Viktor’s ear, “May you have many more wonderful birthdays to come.”

Please forgive me, Kai! I hope you like it!

Day 3 - Mistletoe

Day 3 of @yoiadventcalendar: Mistletoe

“Victor? Can you help me with these?” Yuuri calls out with his arms full of groceries and gently kicks the door closed. Grocery shopping is a task that they’ve both put off for three days too long. Yuuri finally broke down when he looked in the fridge that morning only to find ketchup and bottles of cheap beer.

Victor doesn’t answer Yuuri’s calls for help, in fact now that Yuuri thinks about it, their apartment is just a little too quiet.

“Victor?” Yuuri calls out once more, depositing the groceries down onto the kitchen counter.

“Bedroom!” Victor calls back from the far depths of their home. Yuuri takes off his jacket and drapes it over the back of a chair and lays out his snow soggy hat and gloves in front of the radiator to dry out before he continues his quest to find his fiance in their bedroom.

“What are you - ?” Yuuri starts to ask, pushing open the door but pauses when he’s sees what What Victor’s done to their bedroom. “Wow.” Yuuri blinks in stunned surprise.

In the amount of time that Yuuri had gone grocery shopping and come back, Victor had hung mistletoe on what is probably every available spot in their room. Mistletoe hangs from the door frame of their master bathroom, closets, the headboard above their pillows, and just about everywhere Yuuri figured Victor thought he could corner him.

“Look who’s caught under the mistletoe,” Victor teases with a grin, hanging up the last of the mistletoe from their ceiling light. Yuuri looks up at the doorway he was standing under to find Victor had in fact also attached mistletoe to this door frame too.

“I guess I am,” Yuuri blushes. Victor saunters over and takes Yuuri’s face in between his hand and presses a slow lingering kiss to Yuuri’s lips.

“Do you like my decorations?” Victor smiles confidently.

“I think you can kiss me whenever you want,” Yuuri points out.

“Where’s the fun in that?” Victor asks playfully, pulling an extra sprig of mistletoe from his pocket and hanging it above their heads. “Double kisses, Yuuri!” Victor leans in for another kiss but Yuuri pulls away and presses his index finger to Victor’s expectant lips.  

“Help me with the groceries first.” Yuuri bargains.

“Yuuri,” Victor mumbles underneath Yuuri’s finger with a pout.

“It will take five minutes. Then you can show me every place you put up mistletoe.” Yuuri propositions. Victor’s mood turns from pouty to eager in a millisecond as he rushes out to the kitchen to put away the groceries faster than Yuuri’s ever seen before.

Yuuri laughs and follows after his ridiculous fiance, spotting much more mistletoe hanging around their apartment that Yuuri failed to notice when he first came home.

It’s going to be a long night.

Creative Kris!

Kris ( @kriscynical ) has some seriously unforgettable art. With a sharp eye for details, each image will keep you staring for hours! No joke, check out every sequin and fold on those awesome skate costumes.

And the rich colors in this artwork just put everything over the top. You’ll instantly recognize Kris when you see such love of color and saturation. Did I also mention there’s some very spicy nsfw every now and then?

Kris has been drawing for over 20 years (wow!) and takes a very intuitive approach to choose color and composition.

I almost always have a pretty solid mental image of the piece I want to produce and what colors/lighting/mood I want from the start, but if there's something I'm unsure about I'll do a rough color study of the piece before starting the finished product to get everything figured out.

Favorite things to draw...Victuuri together! (us all, Kris, us all).

I love their sweet, healthy, wholesome dynamic so much in how absolutely devoted they are and how they unabashedly care for each other so deeply and want to support each other even if it means making personal sacrifices in order to do so; all those deep emotions are so fun to play with through subtle body language/facial expression, and I love conveying emotion in my work. 

For a single character, I'd have to say Yuuri because I relate to him a lot for various reasons and the complexity of his character makes for even more fodder when it comes to visually conveying his inner struggles with anxiety and self-worth.

Don’t forget to visit Kris and see it all!

Viktor, meanwhile, was out in the main part of the condo — sorting through some of his book collection, apparently. Every so often he got the urge to reorganize — by subject, by title, by author, by color of the spine. Apparently this time it was being organized by language.

Viktor usually only did this sort of thing when he was overthinking things, but for now…. He was just going to try and focus on what he could control. And the process by which he and Yuuri would be approved for a child was definitely outside of his control.

He heard movement from the bedroom, and poked his head in. They were finally awake. “It’s nearly three, my loves. Sleep well?”

——

Yuuri got up, stretching out first before leaning over to kiss Kara. “Wow! You really let us sleep in.” He said pulling on a robe and left the bedroom.

Kara sighed. He supposed he should get up and talk to them about everything. He rubbed his forehead and got up.

“Anyone want some coffee?” He asked leaving the bedroom. He was going to have a cup.

“No I’m fine. Thank you.” Yuuri again kissed his cheek. It was clear Yuuri was still in a good mood from yesterday.

Yuuri hadn’t been expecting any phone calls. So when he received one from an unknown number he almost let it go to voice mail. But he knew it could be a sponsor. So he answered it anyway.

“Wait wait- what?!” Yuuri couldn’t believe his ears. It had to be too good to be true. “Hold on, just a second- Viktor!” Placing the call on hold he called out for Viktor. He had to be sure he heard right. “Hold on just a second, I think my husband would like to hear this too.”

——

Kara was exhausted. Another two weeks in Tokyo for work had dragged by. But he was more than ready to be home with his partners. And their wonderful dogs. He was practically fall asleep on the train. While he knew Yuuri or Viktor would have picked him up he knows they get so little off time. With the skating season over for the time being he didn’t want to have work more than necessary. He could just take a taxi anyway.

Hi yoi fics! I was searching for Yuri!!!On Ice fanfics to read when I crossed your path. And it's even. There is everything. Thanks so much for storing these! May I ask what you're all time favorite is? (I know, it's hard) 😂😂😂

First. I love your blog. Had a mini heart attack when I saw your ask.

Also, that’s too hard! Can I make like… Favorite 10 fics? I will do that, because I will not choose a favorite. Also, they’re all different in gerne, so my fave would also depend on my mood. Anyway, in alphabetical order, here’s my 10 favorite yoi fics!

A Hundred Flowers In Bloom by Chiharu | M | Leo/Guang-Hong, Yuuri/Victor | 9k

The 2022 Beijing Olympics open on the fourth day of Chinese New Years with twelve lines of lion dancers forming into a dragon.

This year, Guanghong only has three resolutions: to not drop the flag on international television, to win Olympic gold for China, and to fall out of love with Leo.

-I’m a really big figure skating fan (hence why I watched yoi), and when the Olympics came around I started reading a lot of fics set in the Olympics and this one really touched my heart. Especially since fics with “minor” ships tend to be short one-shots and this one just really did it for me. Like wow, I mostly just stick to Viktuuri fics, but LeoJi is a weakness.-

a little room to breathe by qynntessence | T | Yuuri/Victor | 9k WIP

Viktor blows his nose wetly and blushes, turning away from Yuuri’s kind eyes. “Can-Can I have another tissue?” He blows his nose again, a thick, congested sound, which turns into thick, congested sneezing. “I’m sorry, I know it can’t be much fun to take care of your sick fiancé when you have a cold. Asthma sucks.”

In which Yuuri has a cold (and also anxiety), Viktor has the flu (and also asthma), and they’re messy and in love and try their best.

-Everyone loves a good sick!fic, me included, and this is my fave sick!fic. And I have resigned myself to it never being completed T.T, but even just the two chapters that are up have been enough to fulfill my needs. Please give the writer some love so that they may get inspiration to finish it!!-

A Voice in the Distance by torikabori | T | Yuuri/Victor | 17k WIP

In which a soulmate connection has three parts: a shared heartbeat, some secondhand emotions, and a sense of when your soulmate is looking at you.

Each has its inconveniences– especially when one half of the pair is famous, the other has anxiety, and they’re born several timezones apart.

-So, I don’t really do AUs, but a good soulmate AU can never do me wrong, and this one. Oh boy. It’s definitely my favorite (soulmate) AU. It fits amazingly with the canon universe, and the very concept of it is so amazingly thought out and well-written. Ugh. It’s so good.-

Before It Burns Me Numb by ilarual | G | Yuuri/Victor | 16k WIP

“What do you mean, you had a crush on me?” Yuuri asks. “We’d never even met before the Grand Prix Final last year.”

Following their engagement, Victor tells Yuuri the story of how he met, fell for, and pined after Japan’s Ace. Not necessarily in that order.

An Ep10 coda… with a twist.

-I’m a big fan of Viktor being a fan of Yuuri pre-series, and this fic is just very cute about it, and also gives a good insight into Viktor’s life pre-series :D-

i’m just going to the store by bosbie | T | Yuuri/Victor | 7k

Accidental masked vigilante Victor Nikiforov.

Or: how Victor’s impulsiveness backfires and creates one of the greatest living internet memes to ever come out of Russia.

-oh man, where do I even begin with this one. It’s so absolutely ridiculous that if I ever find myself in a bad mood, this fic is sure to cheer me up because it is hilarious.-

katsuki_fc wrote by tetsurashian | G | Yuuri/Victor | 12k

Just because Yuuri isn’t big on social media, doesn’t mean his fans aren’t.

-Social Media fics in YoI is one of my all-time weaknesses. I adore the fan-based aspect of it, as well as it sometimes being a clever way to call out haters. It’s also incredibly immersive and it’s a great way to get into the yoi -verse yourself. This is probably the one YoI fic I’ve read the most, and I have no shame about that.-

Tantalus, Reaching by chellethewriter | T | Yuuri/Victor | 17k

When Viktor Nikiforov arrives in Hasetsu, he expects the Katsuki Yuuri from the banquet – the shameless, sensual dancer who made Viktor feel alive for the first time in years. Instead, he finds a different Katsuki Yuuri – a boy who lacks confidence and flinches at Viktor’s touch.In Viktor’s determination to reconcile these contrastive personalities, he realizes two things: one, that first impressions are not everything, and two, that he may or may not be in love with every side of Yuuri.

(In other words, a retelling of the series that chronicles how a five-time Grand Prix champion might attempt to woo a somewhat oblivious Japanese figure skater.)

-Another weakness of mine: YoI told from Viktor’s perspective. And this one. Oh my. It has everything. Viktor pining. Yuuri being the absolute worst pov character and also an oblivious heart-breaker. Viktor pining. It’s just really good.-

The Bulge (Don’t Bring a Weapon to a Public Beach) by nagoyadelay | M | Yuuri/Victor | 2k

Victor posts a photo of Yuuri on instagram without realizing that it’s somewhat suggestive.

A thirsty skating fandom collectively loses their shit.

-Humor is my go-to genre in the yoi fandom for reasons I myself don’t quite understand - perhaps I just want to see all my faves have fun rather than suffer for once? But this one combines Humor with Social Media, and that’s just a double KO for me. And, of course, it’s wonderfully written as well.-

This Curious Condition Called Love by xtwilightzx | T | Yuuri/Victor | 16k

The bite of pancake is delightfully buttery, with a tang from the cheese curds. Yuuri isn’t sure what his expression is like, but Victor’s smile brightens, and his phone goes up.

“Say syrniki!”

That photo’s going to end up on Instagram in less than a minute. Yuuri ducks, and when Victor whips his phone to follow, Yuuri grabs Victor’s elbow and drags him over so they’re both caught in the shot. Victor laughs, a long line of warmth mashed up against Yuuri’s side. He tucks his arm around Yuuri’s waist and raises his phone again.

Victor uses variations of the same caption every time: Reexploring St. Petersburg with #katsukiyuuri #oneplateatatime

“You’re ridiculous,” Yuuri whispers, after the camera goes off.

Victor smiles. “Ridiculous, but yours.”

(Yuuri has done the transcontinental uprooting of his life twice before and it’s never easy, but this time there are photos plastered all over Victor’s social media, explorations into Russian cuisine, shenanigans with the Russian figure skating national team, calls and messages from friends and family, and Victor, always.

Victor, on the other hand, mostly copes by watching Yuuri adapt to life in St. Petersburg).

-Now, if you put a gun to my head and asked what my fave is, this would probably be my answer. This, for me, is the perfect post-season story. I can’t even begin to describe how much and why I love this fic, but it is absolutely amazing, and it’s a shame that more people don’t know about it. Please read it!-

Winter Song by proantagonist | E | Yuuri/Victor | 156k

The set of Yuuri’s mouth softened into a private smile as Victor squeezed his knee beneath the table. His hands were bare, free from the gloves he so often wore when they were together on the rink, and the heat of his palm burned straight through the denim of Yuuri’s jeans. He slipped his own hand beneath the table and found Victor’s. Hidden from sight, their fingers began to flirt and play. A secret conversation all their own that needed no words.

Yuuri was aware that at some point—a moment in time he couldn’t quite place—Victor had become his boyfriend.

There wasn’t a single instant when it happened. It was a slow awareness, as if Victor had silently been asking the question for months now, and Yuuri had been giving him the answer a little more with each passing day.

-I think everyone knows this one, so I’m honestly not even going to explain why this is on my list. But. It’s amazing.-

Get to Know the Writer Meme

Why does @ashthe7th always tag me in these things? Well... Probably because I’ve known her for.... what, 7 years now? Wow....

Rules: Answer the following Q&A, then share.

#1 Poetry Or Prose?

Prose.

#2 Dialogue Or Description?

I need a healthy balance of both, though dialogue is easier to read/write.

#3 Favourite Character You’ve Ever Written?

I could write Yuuri Katsuki all day. And there is a character that I used to roleplay with all the time, but nothing from original works. Sevastianos. As cold as the Russian winters. Dirty, filthy, Stinking rich. Lives in New York with a pet snake that loves cuddles. Also, Rozuriel, were-raven, homeless. Charitable, though doesn’t trust easily. Just wants to be left alone.

#4 Least Favourite Character You’ve Ever Written?

Hmm.... I don’t think I do villains very well. Regardless, I still try.

#5 Favourite Character Trait To Write?

I’ve grown to like serious moments. Break down the character’s mental state and push him into emotional overdrive. I used to hate angst, and I used to not be very good at it. I still don’t think I’m great with it, but I’ve grown fond of it. (I swear it’s not my fault, my plotfoxies give me all sorts of evil ideas)

#6 Favourite Character Name You’ve Come Up With?

Again, I don’t really do original works, but I do have characters that I used to roleplay with. I like names with meaning and that flow on the tongue. Names come after the image I want them to portray.

#7 Biggest Weakness In Writing?

I feel the need to work on everything, but specifically I’m told Run-on and complicated sentences give me the most issues.

#8 Biggest Strength In Writing?

My flow and story pacing. Despite the little monster inside my head saying “It’s too soon for this, put it off,” it’s actually just fine.

#9 Favourite Trope?

Slow burn, modern AUs. Also supernatural/fantasy AUs. Omegaverse is touchy/ It’s okay as long as it’s well-written and not cliche with abuse.

#10 Least Favourite Trope?

I can’t stand high school drama or Mpreg.

#11 Author You Look Up To?

I love Edgar Allen Poe. He’s always been one of my favorites growing up.

#12 Favourite Book/Piece You’ve Written?

I don’t think I have one. I’m never satisfied. I always find things I want to fix or rewrite.

#13 Favourite Line You’ve Written?

Something about an opaque blur of runny colors, I don’t remember. It was in a Bleach fanfiction, though. I was really happy with how it came out.

#14 Fanfiction Or Original Work?

Fanfiction. I’ve been working on the same original work for the past fifteen years, and keep deleting and rewriting it. Blah....

#15 Favourite Genre To Write In?

Supernatural/Fantasy AUs. Dunno why, but they’ve always held my attention.

#18 Heavy Description Or Little Description?

If I have something specific in mind, heavy. If I don’t really care about the surroundings and it’s just about the characters talking, then little. But I’m told that I’m pretty good with visualizing scenery. XD

#17 First Person, Second Person, Or Third Person?

Third person, though I dabble in first every now and then.

#19 Multiple Point Of Views Or Just One Point Of View?

Depends on the mood of the story. Usually only one or two. Three is kinda pushing it.

#20 Multiple Protagonists Or Just One Protagonist?

Depends on the plot. Sometimes you need multiple. Usually only one, though.

#21 Favourite Villain You’ve Ever Written?

I don’t think I’ve ever written an original villain before, though in my new OtaYuri fic, there will be. We’ll see where that will take us.

#22 Longest Piece (Word Count) You’ve Ever Written?

Geez... that has to be Untitled Preface. It’s not done yet, but I plan to finish it at some point, just gotta get back into Bleach fanfiction.... It’s sitting pretty at 118,449 words with 18 chapters.

#23 Where Do You Get Your Inspiration From?

Anything basically. (This is @ashthe7th‘s answer, but I leave it here because same.)

#24 How To Deal With Writer’s Block?

Umm... I kind of don’t? I try to ignore it, then I go read fanfiction. Ahahaha! (-Sweatdrops-) I’m not the best when dealing with it, I admit.

#25 Writing One Book At A Time, Or Multiple At A Time?

I try to focus on one fanfiction at a time, but then the plotfoxes attack and I find myself struggling between four or five. Ugh....

#26 Planning Out The Book Before Writing, Or Just Writing It On The Go?

Half and half. I loosely plan, then allow for any on-the-spot changes that I’m feeling.

#27 Picking Chapter Titles Before Writing Or After?

After. Always after. I suck at titles.

#28 Picking Character Names Before Writing Or After?

Before. Always before.

#29 Simple Or Complex Plotlines?

Usually simple, just because I don’t have the complexity in my brain to handle multiples. I want to try, though. Just anxious about it.

#30 Multiple Different Characters Or Just A Few?

If you mean side characters, it doesn’t matter. You could have a whole city or just a couple. If you mean main characters, then only a few. I like to kep the story rotating around only one or two(maybe three) people.

#31 Sad Or Happy Endings?

I’m a fucking sucker for fluffy ends....

#32 Rhymed Poetry Or Free Verse?

Free. What is it with the Poetry stuff?

#33 Epilogues Or Prologues?

I actually like writing both, but Epilogues are more popular.

Is that it? Yay, we’re done! If you have any other questions, or want me to further clarify one of these, please feel free to ask me anything!

title guessing game

wow i haven’t done this for a while huh

guessing game for chapter 20 of the beginnings just another end!

!!!send me a lyric that you think might be fitting for the chapter!!!

the song is: “Take What You Want” by One OK Rock (ft. 5 Seconds of Summer)

and a small spoiler for the chapter for mood:

The night before, 1:46am, Detroit, Michigan...

Yuuri took a deep breath as he fiddled with his pencil, trying his best to calm his anxiety some. It had been unusually calm all day, really it shouldn't have surprised him that as soon as Phichit had fallen asleep, his anxiety would hit him stronger than it has in a while.
