Death Spiral: Chapter 1 is up!
Tumblr media
Death Spiral - Riku/Sora, Figure Skating AU, Mature Rating, Chapter 1/?
Riku's figure skating career has him on top of the world at the age of nineteen. But after an injury at a competition he was favored to win, his coach gives him an ultimatum: skate in the comparatively less demanding "Pair" category with a partner, or quit the sport altogether. Too bad the partner his coach suggests just so happens to be Sora, his childhood best friend who later became the other half of slightly toxic codependent queer relationship when they were teens. Riku never thought he'd see Sora again, and in some ways it was easier like that. Now, Sora's back in Riku's life, and he can't help but feel all his unresolved emotions coming back to the surface. And, worst of all, there's something else there too. A flicker of hope.

Current Chapter | First Chapter
Imo it is worth it to watch the video linked in the endnotes - it's short and is a stunning showcase of some of the beauty that can be expressed on the ice!!!! I based Sora's social media presence largely off this skater, and I envisioned Sora to be performing this song (Movement by Hosier) in this chapter. Here's another link to it!

Chapter 3 of Death Spiral is out!
Tumblr media
Newest Chapter | First Chapter
Well, after months of life bludgeoning me over and over with tiny hammers, I am working on this fic again! In this chapter, we get some backstory on the nature of Sora and Riku's relationship nine years ago. Chapter title is, as usual, a relevant song, which you can find here if you'd like to listen :) This chapter is light on figure skating but chapter 4 will take place back on the rink!
