Montreal Worlds 2024 Day 2&3

HOLY WOW! What a couple days that was. This is going to be a wild ramble and bullet point list of things that I can remember and stick out in the onslaught of skating that I've seen in the past 48 hours. It's also 11:30pm, so bear with me.

MEN'S SHORT

Roman clean program? In front of me and God and all of Montreal? Utterly wild, so exciting in the building.

Aleksandr Selevko is such a force, I enjoyed his skate SO much, what a magnetic skater.

JASON BROWN. What a serve, he is so beloved, you could just tell the whole crowd was so behind him and love him so much, it was such a stunning piece of skating.

The announcer's saying Lukas Britschgi instead of Deniss was so hilarious, and he had a lovely skate to boot.

Speaking of Lukas, LOVED him, he's so fun.

YUMAAAAAAAA. That is all.

Shoma Uno made me cry and he needs to pay for emotional damages, he had such a good warm up I was buzzing and kept excitedly hitting my friend's knee whenever he landed another clean jump. QUAD TOE TRIPLE TOE!

Ilia was there.

PAIRS FREE PROGRAM

DEANNA STELLATO THE WOMAN THAT YOU ARE. The fact that she normally has such an intense reaction post good skate, but instead this time she just leaned forward, half crying, going 'oh my god' made me cry too. The roof blew off the fucking place. It was a singular moment in my life. I am just so unbelievably happy for her and all that she has achieved. Max was so good, so steady, so fucking wonderful. I am in awe of this team.

Glad M/K went back to that free program, a shame about her doubling, and wow did she ever take it hard. It's definitely their best program, for the love of God Bruno Marcotte STOP LETTING YOUR FUCKING SISTER CHOREOGRAPH EVERY SINGLE PROGRAM. DON'T ME COME TO OAKVILLE! I'LL DO IT!

So so happy for Hase and Volodin, they had such a lovely skate, a very well deserved medal, they've had such momentum all season.

Moment of silence of Conti and Macii, that was rough.

Pairs in person made me age about 15 years, so if I have grey hair in the coming months, I know who to blame. Holy shit, it's exhilarating but also tense as hell. I loved it!

RHYTHM DANCE

Hannah Lim, you're a fucking star.

Mrazkes are deeply underwhelming, like wow, they skate very small.

Lopareva and Brissaud also skate very very small. I kept looking up at the time thinking the program would be over and it wasn't. Not a fan at all.

Cpom CRUSHED IT and it was so awesome to see.

LAJOIE AND LAGHA MY LOVES! Easily the performance of the night, and not even close. So glad they got here after battling injury, so proud of them.

Gilles and Poirier are slooooooooooow. Very slow. Maybe the slowest of the last two groups. It's glaring. How have they not worked on this? They also skate small.

Guignard and Fabbri had a good lift, and a cringe everything else.

I just watched Evan during their performance and wow does he do not a lot. It's the Madi show and he's barely a supporting actor.

Fear and Gibson were there.

WOMEN'S FREE

KAORI KAORI KAORI KAORI.

Besides her heinous jumps, Isabeau created a moment, and it was lovely to experience.

Big ups to Chaeyon Kim for a solid, if boring and slightly cold, free skate. On this night, a well deserved bronze.

Leona, oh Leona. The whole crowd deflated when she fell. Such a shame.

OKAY SO CUTE MOMENT! So Kimmy Repond's dad was sitting ldown and across from me two rows, he was about 4 feet from me. I didn't know he was her dad at the start, but I knew by the end, because he was SO dad about the whole skate. Then when she skated clean, he jumped up, a man below me went and shook his hand and went "Are you her dad?" and he got tears in his eyes, put his hand on his chest, and went 'She is my daughter." I just about sobbed my brains out. So beautiful. He then didn't clap once for the next Swiss skater, which I do not fault him for, major dad behaviour.

Moment of silence for Amber Glenn.

Josefin Taljegard, I love you.

GENERAL THOUGHTS

The people around me and I all started chatting about 30 minutes into the women's free skate, by the end of it, I would go to war for all of them. Camaraderie between skating fans is very fun.

Still a giant fuck you to the woman who asked me if NikS. raped me when I pointed out to my friend he shouldn't be competing, special place in hell for you, you hot garbage person.

I got very cold during the women's free, got a hot chocolate, it wasn't good, but it saved my life, and for that I thank it.

Accidentally got up late (9:36am for a rendez vous at 10am) for breakfast with my brother, still arrived at 10:01am, I am a superhero.

Still fuck the seats in the venue, they need about 4 inches on all sides to be even remotely comfortable, including 4 more inches of leg room. We are humans, not dead sardines, for the love of GOD.

Kaori's speed and power made me gasp a few times.

I can't remember anything else but I know other things happened, ah well, it's almost midnight, I ordered late night pizza take out like a boss, I'm gonna eat that, unwind, and hopefully sleep more than four hours.

GODSPEED!

35 . complicated . written

prev . main

you paced around the living room, glancing at your phone while waiting for nien, yeonji, and kaede to show up. you hoped having them over would take your mind off of your complicated situation with xinyu and nakyoung. you couldn't shake off the fact that spending time with nakyoung had somehow conflicted your feelings about xinyu.

the doorbell rang, pulling you out of your thoughts. you opened the door to see your closest friends standing there, all smiling and holding snacks.

"finally, y'all took forever," you said as they entered.

"only because nien got us lost on the way here," kaede said as she took her shoes off at the door.

"you're the one who put the wrong address in," nien retorted.

"can confirm, as the only witness," yeonji chimed in as she walked in last.

"honestly it's y/n's fault for having the same address as people in whole different cities," kaede said as she put the snacks on the table.

"you've been here like a hundred times since i moved in and you still don't know my address?" you asked.

"in my defense," kaede replied, holding up her hands, "i've never been the one driving before."

"sounds like a skill issue," nien muttered under her breath, earning a laugh from yeonji.

they settled in, chatting about random things and events that had happened in the time you all hadn't seen each other, which was only like two days but still, a lot can happen in that amount of time. you were just starting to forget about your earlier problems when your phone lit up with a notification from chaeyeon asking if she could come over. you knew she wanted to talk about what was going on and you didn't want to get yelled at by her, but you couldn't say no to chaeyeon.

"hey, so...chaeyeon wants to come over too," you announced.

nien shrugged, "that's cool"

you had just responded to chaeyeon, telling her she could come over when you remembered you had promised yubin that you'd invite her the next time everyone hung out. even though this wasn't technically a planned hangout, it still felt wrong not to include her. you quickly shot yubin a text, inviting her to come over as well. a few minutes later, she replied saying she was already with some of the others and would swing by with them afterward. figuring you might as well go all in, you decided to invite the rest of the group too. before you knew it, hyerin, jiwoo, dahyun, and kotone were also coming over.

"well, i invited more people," you casually announced to the group as you plopped back onto the couch.

nien raised an eyebrow, "who?"

"chaeyeon's on her way, and yubin is coming too. and since she's with the others, hyerin, jiwoo, dahyun, and kotone are coming over as well."

kaede blinked, staring at you in disbelief. "you always say you don't wanna be the hang-out house, but then you do stuff like this."

you shrugged. "i just like being around my friends. is that a crime?"

yeonji narrowed her eyes playfully. "are you dying or something?"

"no! can't i just admit that i like having my friends over without it being a big deal?" you said defensively.

kaede scoffed, crossing her arms. "not willingly. you never admit stuff like that unless someone pries it out of you."

"that's not true at all," you argued. "i always invite you guys over, and i've definitely said i appreciate it."

"yeah, and every single time we mention that you like having us around or that you love us, you say 'ew,'" nien chimed in.

"prove it," you said, raising an eyebrow.

"i have multiple witnesses who would agree with me," nien replied smugly.

"do you really?" you retorted, looking around the room. "because nobody will be staying at my house if y'all agree."

"i said nothing," kaede raised her hands in surrender.

"i'm too comfortable right now to be a witness to anything," yeonji said.

nien sighed dramatically. "damn, that's fucked up."

before you could respond, the doorbell rang again, interrupting your retort. you got up to answer it, and there stood chaeyon and yubin, with jiwoo, dahyun, hyerin, and kotone behind them.

"i ran into them outside," chaeyeon told you as she stepped inside.

"and yet nobody brought snacks or drinks." you shook your head.

"in my defense, i can't even buy drinks," hyerin said, shrugging.

"you really just showed up empty-handed, huh? that's messed up," you teased with a smirk.

"we can always order something," yubin said as she walked into the room.

"how about chicken?" kotone suggested, her eyes lighting up.

"or stir-fry," jiwoo added.

"ooh, and some kimchi jjigae," dahyun chimed in excitedly.

"this is going to be a long night," you muttered under your breath while closing the door.

soon enough, you were all talking and joking around and it was the exact thing you needed at the moment. until you accidentally made eye contact with chaeyeon who gave you a knowing look. she hadn't said anything yet, but you knew it would happen soon.

and that's how you ended up gathering in a circle with everyone. chayeon nudged you lightly, "so... are you ready to talk about it?"

you sighed, knowing you had to explain everything eventually. might as well do it now. at least most of the people in the room had been involved in some way during the recent mess with you, xinyu, nakyoung, and sohyun, so it was a safe place to talk about your current issues. you did have to choose your words carefully as not to reveal the whole fake dating thing.

"alright, fine," you started, leaning back against the couch. "so, things with xinyu are...complicated. like, we had that double date with sohyun and nakyoung, and it was just a disaster. she spent the whole time trying to one-up sohyun, and i just felt like i didn't exist. it was frustrating."

everyone was listening intently, even those who hadn't been there for the events. jiwoo raised an eyebrow. "did you tell her how you felt?"

"not yet," you admitted, "and i know if i wanted to fix my problems then i should, but she didn't even notice and that pissed me off so much. she was so focused on whatever weird competition she had with sohyun that she forgot about me. and then..." you paused, hesitating on if you should say the next part but then decided you needed to be honest if you wanted their advice, "and then there's nakyoung."

the room went silent for a moment as you gathered her thoughts. "we hung out after the double date. nakyoung invited me over, and we ended up driving around, talking, catching up. and honestly, it felt like when we were together. i almost—" you stopped before you could expose yourself more.

kaede leaned forward. "almost what?"

"i almost folded," you admitted, rubbing your face in frustration. "i mean, y'all know how crazy i used to be about nakyoung. i really loved her and being there i forgot everything else."

chaeyeon raised an eyebrow. "forgot about xinyu?"

you nodded, "yeah, i know it was messed up but nakyoung had this effect on me, and it felt like i was back where we left off. it scared me."

"okay, but you didn't actually do anything though right?" dahyun asked.

"no, i didn't do anything," you quickly clarified. "but i came close. and now i'm stuck. i'm mad at xinyu for the date, but i'm also feeling all these old emotions for nakyoung, and it's just...a mess."

nien frowned slightly. "what are you gonna do about it?"

"that's the thing. i don't know. i can't exactly tell xinyu about how close i got to... cheating on her with nakyoung. but at the same time, i don't think i can keep pretending everything's okay."

the room was quiet for a moment as everyone took in everything you just said before hyerin broke the silence. "well, whatever you do, just make sure you're doing it for you. don't get caught up in what anyone else thinks you should do. if you need time to figure things out, take it."

you let out a tired sigh, "i feel like i've done a lot of thinking and it's not helping."

jiwoo leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand. "then don't overthink it. maybe you need to actually do something about it."

"but like what?" you asked, exasperated. "i don't want to mess anything up with xinyu, but at the same time i would feel bad if i didn't say anything about it."

"well first of all you should tell xinyu why you're even mad at her in the first place, you owe her that much," dahyun told you, her voice soft but direct.

"you're right. i just don't know how to bring it up without sounding like a jealous girlfriend," you said.

yubin nodded thoughtfully, "i get that but sometimes you gotta let her know how you feel about everything."

kaede, who had been quietly listening, finally chimed in. "do you even want to be in this relationship with xinyu, or was this whole thing more about getting your get back?"

you bit your lip, thinking it over. "i want to be with xinyu of course but this double date thing made me think she wants to get back with sohyun. it's all just so messy."

"as somebody who's really close with xinyu, i can say she's not really interested in sohyun anymore after their argument," dahyun told you.

"she told me the same thing, it's just my insecurities getting to me," you said.

chaeyeon leaned back, crossing her arms. "honestly, i think you just need to get out of your head about everything and just think about what you actually want before you lead anybody on."

"i just... i just don't want to hurt anyone," you said quietly.

"well you're gonna hurt everyone including yourself if you keep this up," yeonji said softly.

you nodded, letting her words sink in. maybe it was time to stop overthinking everything and start making some decisions and finally perhaps tell xinyu how you feel... about everything, well maybe not everything.
