This has got to be some of the most raw, emotionally beautiful practice footage there is of them. Is it even a practice? or is it a performance? or is it the most human, physical visualisation of two intrinsically connected souls communicating with each other??? I honestly don’t know, but I love it.
I’m the first to justify literally everything they do that seems unconventional for a supposed platonic relationship with the basic facts of the work and care they put into building trust and respect. But the amazing thing about what they do is you can not know all that, or know it all and just ignore it and watch them dance. Believe whatever you want to believe-whatever story they themselves are seemingly entranced in.. so let’s do that this time.
The way she falls on that 4th piano key. A legitimate trust fall- she falls so far off before he makes contact with her. The actual reaction in both of them, feeling the heavy weight of struggles they are navigating. How once she falls and he takes her weight, that causes his blades to slide open and back, his head inclined to look at her as if there’s nothing he can do but carry her through her pain.
The dynamics of the first lift. I’ll confidently say their lifts are so stunning because T is doing so much more work than any other girl does in lifts, she literally initiates the whole thing with her momentum, then the almost, stormy ocean current-like shifts in dynamics between the spin to her throwing and almost falling again back in his arms to again thrown up over his shoulders.. but it happens so seamlessly because they are both so strong.
The freaking dancing in their circle step sequence.. I don’t give two fucks about the skating they are doing- I know it’s amazing and I have all the respect in the world for them as technically brilliant skaters, but the skating is the blade in contact with the ice, above that, and the way they skate.. they are dancing. They are Ice. Dancing. Even when they don’t have their eyes on each other their eyes are still somehow on each other.. when thy look away they are still connected.. it’s so god damn intimate. What audience? If there was ever a program that proved they shut all the 7billion or so people on this earth out when they dance it’s this one. The suspension following Scott’s twizzle at the centre back of the rink and he reaches out to the front, only momentarily entertaining the idea that anyone else is actually there to save them. The way they play with the music as if making certain notes freeze in time, then race to catch others like their lives depend on it.
Even when they break.. the way they take a good 5 seconds to stay in that bubble, the way he gently fondles with her.. like with their hug just settling their heart beats back down, coming back to each other to refocus while still connected to the yearning violin drawing them back to start again.
Then just as they dipped briefly out of character, letting the story overtake them and they phase back into it in that beautifully soft little cradley hug, spinning in their shared energy as the lyrics start to emphasise what their bodies are yearning for each other, the movement signifying them stumbling over their own two feet as the other is their save them.
The exquisite, time standing still pause as the whole arena breathes with them, realising the euphoria flooding them as finally their stunning smiles emerge.
I don’t know if anyone has noticed at this point, but this pause, only along with twizzles are the only times they have been out of contact with each other. They stretch and intertwine like elastic silks, their limbs only an extension of each others.
That minuscule throw where Tessa becomes airborne, only for her feet barely to touch the ice as she’s intentionally dropped back, not at the mercy of his control, but their own energies saving each other’s whether in the air or on the cold ice.
Then taking off, he like an eagle with her flying on his back. Landing again and her being tossed around because euphoric happiness isn’t all light and gentle- the essence of their love is that physical expression of which part of the fun is seeing how far they can push the boundaries of movement together.
Joining in an expansive waltz hold which should look so out of place in a contemporary routine but instead represents how their closeness and bond remains as they navigate through life taking them all directions- holding each other close just to almost completely release, only their fingertips left in contact, to pull each other in again as they grasp for their person.
That brief moment where he has to chase after her in the middle of a required technical step sequence, they are now just dancing. What audience? what coaches? what other skaters? are they- TS even here? As if dna under a microscope- they are just two lost souls who found each other in this big wide world.. communicating the best way they know how, doing the thing that brings them the most passionate joy in this life.
Tessa arching up to the heavens in their straight lift, thanking whatever powers brought them together.. embedded in music the slightest sound of angelic choir voices during that lift as she exhales.
The music then settling as they too quieten down. That last spiralling lift, expansive to nestled.. them both almost folding around each other in a foetal-like position as she hangs on closing off the world around them. Wanting to be as close as they can he reaches down to give her the most gentle little kiss on the first spot he reaches.
It truly brings tears to my eyes.. how special they must feel in a moment like that. Her unable to do anything but hang on and he confirms the magic of that moment with a gesture far too intimate to be considered platonic. But in these moments that label means nothing to them.. what is any label you can put on a feeling this special?. In the middle of a rehearsal for a competitive program, at a competition with a result so important in their plan for 2018.. let alone completing their gold collection. In this moment none of that matters, nothing else in existence matters except them in their little world. I can only imagine, for her in that moment spinning in her lil tucked position, being met with a kiss she has no control over receiving. Receiving it from someone she trusts with her life, she knows exactly what that kiss means in the context of who it’s coming from, but also in that moment it has no meaning, it is just an expression of overwhelming love.. how freaking loved must she feel in that moment??
As they come to a stop, not reaching the end of their journey, but just another step in realising their essential role in each other’s existence, these two.. sometimes emotionally disturbed (borrowing that from their description of Stay), maybe even by their own emotions together, have made it though another chapter alive, safe, still in each other’s arms.
Laying her back she takes one last exhale, him resting on her beating chest, hopefully in time with his own.
Yes, this was just a practice.. just another run of their FD. These two great athletes, this terrifying, formidable team… so good their practice just becomes a conversation.. just them communicating, synchronising, feeling anything and everything they want to feel.
#Youtube#me getting carried away by them in real time#I’m sorry I didn’t mean for this to become a novel#they make me feel so much I was left having a moment watching this for the thousandth time#like… how are they even real? how is in the same world as everything else#how can this be compared.. JUDGED?? against anything else??#I understand it and yet I don’t understand it#I want so desperately to feel what they are feeling#and sometimes I think I do#but then think no that isn’t possible because they are the ones in each others arms#ughhhh#deeeppp sigh#fd: latch#practice#GPF 2016

My thoughts on transid as someone in remission from Factitious Disorder (a small essay)
Seeing transabled/transrace etc. stuff is on one hand proving to me that I am mostly in remission from Factitious Disorder, but on the other hand, it makes me upset that those people are encouraged to exist like that.
Part of my FD has been wanting to get ill/be disabled (I didn’t know I was disabled at the time of having it, and started to go into remission around the time I figured out I was), and I’m pretty sure if I had the internet back then, I would’ve latched right on to radqueer stuff. A lot of radqueers seem to either have BIID, or have Factitious Disorder. Neither of which should be demonized, I don’t condone that at all (especially because I know that FD is often an early warning sign of other mental disorders, specifically cluster B personality disorders and c-PTSD)… but I do not like transids or have much empathy for them.
Alternative terms (PT: Alternative terms):
Speaking of that, they seem to be using terms for things that already exist:
“I feel like I should be a non-human” = Transspecies or therian or otherkin. I know some therian/otherkin use the term transspecies, especially those with stronger dysphoria, so I will include it.
“I feel like I should be disabled in a very specific way, primarily because of personal reasons (not attention seeking or getting money) to the point that I will intentionally make myself disabled” = This aligns with BIID much more than FD, but there can be a significant overlap.
“I feel like I should be disabled because I like the attention/am traumatized and need some semblance of love and attention that I’m not getting, to the point of pretending I’m disabled or attempting to disable myself” = Factitious Disorder is most aligned with this.
“I identify as having gone through abuse/more severe abuse than I went through” = There is a root cause for this. For the former, it may be that they were pushed to the side, or feel left out. For the latter, it may be that their existing abuse is not taken seriously enough.
Conclusion (PT: Conclusion):
Could do more but I honestly am getting tired of this and it’s definitely triggering the “dormant” FD. Side note though, the FD urges won’t necessarily go away. It’s up to you to fight them away, even if this means fighting every single day against the dissociation and impulses. If anyone with FD sees this, feel free to contact me for advice. My FD is in full remission, I am able to do things I never could do before and it feels amazing!
(Added the title, sorry if it looks wonky)

I am still so new to the LU so please go easy on my requests. I am basically learning as I go and also because I am hesitant to request here. So here is my simple request.
I don't know if you do Yandere anymore but can I get Yan Time/FD(I love him so much;^;) and Wild reacting to reader confessing their feelings to them. I just want fluffy fluff. I might request again but I don't wanna overwhelm your bucket list.
Now I am going to do the first prompt, But put the second back in the inbox and it’ll get done… eventually?
TW: yandarism and all it’s accompanies (obsession, violence, etc), yan!reader
✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Safety was a concept you didn’t know much of. It was like a bird, swooping nearer to you and diving away. It was something you once had wished for. Something you couldn’t have. Not with the struggles and strife of the world. It was something that lured, something so ironic once you realised that the very concept of safety often led people away from what was truly safe. In a world without real villains, there were only false heroes. And so, you settled for as close to safety as one given person could manage. But life is a shaky course, filled with so much unpredictability that it’s natural that your walls came crashing down eventually. Now, you were in a world with a true villain. One of evil for evil's sake, one whom it was easy to label as the bad guy. He ripped you from your home and with malice he chased until you met who you can only presume to be your hero. Who else could wield such a sword with such accuracy and grace that the gods themselves wished to emulate? Your heart felt like it was clawing at your ribs whenever the shadow man lashed at your hero. If only you weren’t injured. But it seemed your heart needn’t worry, your hero moving so quickly as to miss the blade, even as strands of gold and white were cut by the sweep of the villain’s blade. They clashed until your hero triumphed, pinning his rival under his boot with a glare of such power that you felt… oddly secure. His smile was wide and hungry and you saw a teal v shake that contrasted the tan of his skin and gold of his hair, blood red marks beneath his eyes that complimented the flush on his cheeks. The villain faded to dust and your vision went with him. Your hero picked you up, and in your fading mind you smiled and clung to that overwhelming feeling of safety. You now knew it, and you wouldn’t be letting it quietly slip by.
The deity knawed in Time’s mind, latched to the soul of the person he saved. Never once had he felt such a tug to any given person. Sure, there was that longing for home, for comfort, but that was never something he was meant to achieve. A lure to keep him moving, to keep doing as he was told. But you… what was it about you? Sure you were undeniably pretty in the way you must’ve been carved by the gods themselves -or been one, as far as the deity was concerned- but that didn’t explain the urge he felt. The urge to go looking for something tugged at his very soul, as if looking for something forgotten. There he found you and just knew. There wasn’t much thought before he drew his blade, and he didn’t resist the second consciousness aiding his steps and swings. There wasn’t anything but bloodlust, comfortable and warm, teeming beneath his skin. It was primal, something so base and inherit that as the shadow was caught beneath his boot all he could do was smile, baring his teeth. Of course the shadow faded away, but it seemed terrified. That thought stuck- that he was capable of making something so otherworldly no more than a scared boy. It felt justifying. Like the scared little boy in him had grown and was satisfied. And then there was you. Just you. Your sweet, content smile as he picked you up. He felt gratified, feared and loved. What they needed him to be and what he wanted to be. He couldn’t just let you leave now, him and the deity both agreed. You wouldn’t be safe without him.

👀 Tell me about an up and coming wip please!
I mean, I've only really got the one that I'm actively working on (other than Febuwhump)
You know how Majora and the Fierce Deity were both sealed away from the world by a power greater than themselves? Well, this story focused on the idea that they are both under the same curse, so if one is freed, the other will be too.
Now, there are three iterations of the masks, one for every timeline. If you assign Legend as the Link of Triforce Heroes, he's got one of them, Time obviously has another, and Wild has the third (or does he?)
My story works on the premise that either mask can lend its power to a user, but there's some math involved. If the user has only very weak magic, then they will absorb the power of the mask over time in order to compensate for their lack of power. If they have equal power, it's a give and take, and if they have greater power, then there's no effect at all. (+ > -, + = +, ++ > +)
Time is the first, but because he overused the mask, he absorbed more power than he ought to have and it's sort of overwritten his natural born magic, hence why his appearance is changed.
Wild's mask has only a boosted attack, but it's very weak, almost like there's no spirit inside anymore, so he doesn't face many effects.
Now, you probably saw this coming, but yes, Legend's also going to use the mask. Except I gave it a twist! As Hylia's descendant, Legend's actually got ample power himself, his issue is that when he saved Koholint, it was his soul in the dream and not his body, so when he was returned to his physical form, the Windfish didn't properly bind his soul to his body. So, while he's not super affected physically, he is magically, because there's a disconnect that stops him accessing his own magical core. He has power, he just can't use it in his body. However, the FD mask latches onto your magical core in order to shift your body to match the deity's form more, so by using it, Legend can gain a body that can easily use his natural given magic. But, since wearing the FD mask basically just allows Legend free access to his own power, he's not actually drawing much if at all from FD, and thus not absorbing the magic of the deity.
The story is basically that Legend doesn't explain this to the others, and those who know anything about the mask come to think of it as a risk that Legend is taking far too liberally (Time is their proof). Our beloved captain, whose not quite himself for reasons, ends up destroying the mask, which leads to the release of the god and the demon, and the heroes have to scramble to fix the problem.
So yeah! That's my current big project right now!

Why do you think Kyman gets so much hate? I can understand some things about what people don’t like about it but some of the things they say, the harassment is so out of pocket. Especially on Tik Tok! It is like a battle ground out there and they all will shoot you down immediately if you SAY anything. I just wanna love Kyman without it seeming like a punishment 😭��
Dude I totally feel you. It's so much easier to live and let live so I don't understand how these ppl have the energy to be so aggressively hurtful all the time. This has been said before ad nauseum but for god's sake, it's JUST a fucking tv show. I'm too old for this shit.
(longer explanation under the cut! like... extremely long lol I'm so sorry my thoughts about this have been building up for a while 😅)
I think the extremely aggressive kyman hate is a symptom of growing poor media literacy and the larger "purity culture" trend that's been present online for a while now. It's very reminiscent of American Evangelicalism or Puritanism, where members of the church have to follow a very specific set of rules for behaving and thinking and if you deviate from those rules in the slightest, you're shot down immediately by the community and shamed for being sinful and blasphemous, all to keep you on the "righteous path" and avoid burning in hell for eternity. This is why so many puritanical christians in the US hate themselves for doing what most of the world sees as normal behavior, and simultaneously force that self-hating worldview onto others to "save" them. (For example see this video by FD Signifier on youtube explaining how hardcore religious ppl/conservatives are doomed to be bad in bed because they see sex as "evil" when in reality it's a normal part of human behavior 😬 It's long but very good).
Though, it's important to note that ppl who think this way may not even be christian themselves, but the behavior is so pervasive in american culture that you absorb it even if you're not a puritanical christian. (for example, to quote Ian Danskin, athiests may think "I don't believe in god, but the god I don't believe in is Jehovah). Tons of the first generation of white USAmericans were exiled British puritans who were kicked out of their home country for essentially being self-righteous assholes and trying to force their shit worldview on everyone else lmao. And I think because so many online spaces are so USAmerican-centric, people from all over the world have started adopting that purity culture as well.
Now, South Park is extremely popular (duh). It's been around for decades so it has a ton of fans both old and new. Unfortunately a lot of new fans, especially young people, follow the show for very different reasons than the average normie/not-terminally-online viewer does. They take the characters out of their original context, use them like dolls to make their own stories and fan content, and ignore all the other blatantly controversial shit that's been going on in the show since day 1 (which is why so many exclusively make blasé creek fanworks imo). They want to keep their thoughts "pure" and only engage with content that's approved by the puritanical online community
It's extremely fitting but also sad that Cartman is the scapegoat for everything wrong with South Park, both in the show and in the real world. Either ppl don't want to acknowledge he exists, or ppl latch onto him and project all of that puritanical hatred toward him or anyone that likes his character. Hell, even I'M guilty of this kind of thinking before I watched the show and understood Cartman's character better.
Kyman in particular is a target BECAUSE it involves Cartman, but also because people boil it down to shipping a nazi with a jew which, at the surface level, seems horrible! But if you've ever actually WATCHED the goddamn show, you know that is an extremely reductive and inaccurate interpretation of their characters. It's horribly poor media literacy. These ppl CANNOT seem to comprehend that you can enjoy watching a character who's a "bad person" without condoning their actions, and that enjoying the shipping dynamic of such characters DOES NOT make you a bad person by proxy.
A huge role of fiction as media is to explore ideas that may be harmful in the real world in a safe way because... *gasp* it's imaginary!! It makes you think and experience emotions you may not have the opportunity for otherwise! However, in the eyes of puritans, the fact you're even thinking about something like that makes you a sinner. It's a thought crime, which is why they consider us mentally "sick" for shipping kyman. So, they send hate at the drop of a hat and publicly vilify kyman shippers to reinforce that behavior with each other, all to say "Hey look at me!!! I'm a Good Person! see how much of a Good Person I am??? I'm gonna go to HEAVEN, and YOU'RE going to HELL". Like I said before, it's not that they necessarily believe in heaven or hell, but that's the general root of the behavior. It's performative puritan dog-piling. Also, because they haven't even fucking watched the whole show, they conveniently ignore all the other horrible shit the show portrays because random kyman shippers online are easy targets while Matt & Trey are gajillionaires who are essentially un-cancellable for things they do on the show at this point because, to quote Trey: For anyone to go up and go "Did you see this thing on South Park? That was really offensive" someone's gonna be like "Dude shut up 😒 that's just South Park".
Geez man this got super fucking long lmao. But my advice is to please take care of yourself because, and this super cliché to say, but FUCK the haters dude 🖕🖕🖕 You're engaging with media that brings you joy and exploring interesting ideas with a community of awesome artists/writers/meta-analysts and more. This is supposed to be FUN!! Anyone who tries to take that away from you or shame you into stopping is a fucking immature, holier-than-thou asshole who needs to get a fucking life. The block button is your friend, so use it early and often. You have the power to curate your own online space, and you shouldn't subject yourself to dealing with these dickheads (this is a big reason why I don't have a tiktok lol)
Good luck dude, and keep on shipping kyman 😎🤘❤️💚

Deanna Stellato said after worlds that they planned out every program for this quad from the start so yes they know what their Olympic programs are. D/W as mentioned by other anon had Scheherazade picked out for years(and iirc even had the music edit finalized so they knew EXACTLY what they were going to skate to down to the second). CPom have their Olympic FD picked out. Tessa may have said that you should plan for a quadrennial, but I think V/M have always been "in the moment" kinds of skaters. Even in their comeback they didn't have Latch or Moulin Rouge planned, they skated to what felt right at the time. It's an approach that has upsides, because sometimes you've evolved past a program that may have once spoken to you and there's something better for where your skating is now. But clearly it also has downsides when you don't light upon music that just sings to you in the moment.
i would take DW being able to have a music edit down to the second ahead of time to mean they had help from their coach. how do you have that without knowing if your choreographer thinks it works? the woman with the vision
most skaters must have music in mind for the big moments they dream about, and the reality is probably that they'll adjust their plan if their Olympic music ends up not fitting where they are. VM couldn't really plan ahead for Latch when they were in a new school with new collaborators and coaches. most teams probably have ideas percolating but don't choose until they need to, and i think that would be VM for MR - coming up with a plan in the moment doesn't sound at all like Tessa to me
they were really good students and accustomed to Marina giving strict direction and laying out a plan, and for Sochi, she left them more on their own. it makes sense they felt abandoned and tentative because they hadn't exercised those muscles before?

There's literally no reason for tae to lie about anything related to jk and if some stupid fucks think that he wants to feed tkkrs then they should broaden their horizons coz shippers aren't even 10% of the fd. Why would he go out the way, lie, cook up stories and false narratives for such a small community? He is too famous and popular to stoop to such levels for attention.
One thing that I'll agree on with jikkrs and solos though is the flippant way jk talks about tae lately. That is one of the biggest reasons why people have latched on to the "tae is a lier" narrative. Whenever tae mentions something sweet or even completely normal regarding him and jk, jk just completely ruins it by almost dismissing it. That recording thing being the latest eg. This it the reason why people can so casually and confidently call tae a fraud coz that's how he looks like afterwards.
I know you all come up with those past incidences when he used to praise tae but let's be honest, now he does downplay everything related to tae so much so that it almost looks like he doesn't care much about what anyone thinks of tae as long as they don't clue into the fact that they are more than just friends. Jk's behaviour these days reminds of that clip from their news station interview where tae was trying to hold his hand and jk just snatched his hand away leaving tae looking wide eyed at him.
Now don't start calling me a jk anti as is the tradition coz I am not. I am just seriously irritated by all the smug assholes calling tae names and waiting for jk to debunk that song thing.
Hi anon!
See I really don’t agree with you on that. I think that Jk is definitely less likely to bring up Tae, but when he talks about him there’s no disrespect, no debunking, no dismissive behavior, no ‘completely ruining’ anything. If anything what he said about the recording was elaborating on what Tae had already said. And what other situations are there?
I always think people in general find Jk easier to read than Tae, but maybe that’s not true. Because so often in this solo era we get comments like ‘Jk is arrogant’, ‘Jk treats Tae badly’ but that’s really not what I see. Jk is humble, and in his humbleness he lets us know that his role in Tae’s project wasn’t as a director. He let’s us know his role was as a friend, as an advisor maybe, as someone that Tae trusts. That is not downplaying anything, that is elaborating on what the situation was. All in all Jk’s words still mean that Tae went to his place to go through the song.
Being as bold as Tae is right now isn’t something small anon. I don’t think Jk will ever do something like this. He also doesn’t have to. I don’t think Tae needs him to. For Tae it’s important to be able to show his feelings (partly) to not hold back. For Jk it probably feels safer to be less obvious.

duuuuude i'm so annoyed with dogshit internet anthro. i'm ~personally~ arguing the case that the current manosphere revival has cribbed a lot of of its aesthetics and argumentative style from the black manosphere, and stg no one takes this remotely seriously.
like, i get that post-trump, we all were eager to slot all bad online behavior into a narrative of white nationalism. it's more complicated than that!
if you need a cursory history lesson – like many things online, the thought process behind the black manosphere was codified in the 80s-90s, most notably through sharhzad ali. it didn't really kick off until 2014 when mumia "obsidian" ali (of no relation, as far as i can tell) began writing pieces in avoiceformen and returnofkings. a few key themes in his writing are blaming (black) women for single parent homes and straying from tradition in general.
this is having a #moment now because the trad types have heavily latched onto family values rn. in other words, two-parent households are no longer the talking points for some guy who clearly holds a lot of resentment, they've been democratized.
and i hate that everyone danced around the existence of this! one of the biggest names to acknowledge the existence of this at all was fd signifier. not only is he dumber than a box of rocks, but he introduces the concept as a drama video. jesus fuck, do i feel like i'm losing my mind sometimes.
#also can i tear into fd for a second? fucking unimaginative if i've ever seen it#legit all of his videos are just letting other people talk for him and poorly editing zoom calls and shit#it's not informative. it's not entertaining. it's just weird garbage that's hifalutin for literally no reason#MY FUCKING GUY. it does not matter how many masters degrees you have. if you've been in academia that long you should know. of all people..#this does not automatically make you smart!#i'd forgive it if he had something to say but he literally doesn't#like dude if you want your ass kissed... keep that in your private life. don't get youtube involved.

Anyone else ever think about how every single Latch ending pose is slightly different because that IS NOT JUST an ending pose.. it’s Scott thanking Tessa for keeping him alive through everything that whole season and her cuddling and holding him exactly how he needs to be held on that specific day at that specific moment.. while simultaneously it is him holding her, for everything she has been through, this program more broadly an encapsulation of their journey so far.. just feeling so incredibly grateful and wanting to cherish each of these moments.
#fd: latch#sorry guys I’ve been really bad with posting regularly#please stick with me I havnt gone anywhere#just tending to other things#but I still watch our precious bbys everyday#so in the mean times something that’s been in my drafts for 6 months#a peace offering if you will#soft bbys

After these past two days that were filled with skating I was in a weird mood and decided to watch the Latch version from 2017 Worlds, something I haven’t done once since watching it live (I could hear the huge gasp from the crowd for days after Worlds so I always chose to watch either NHK or GPF versions). I forgot how good they were in it, stumble included. Their lines, their edges, their knee bend, their flow across the ice, the connection, the interpretation, paying attention to the details, creating beautiful shapes. Every moment in the slo-mo is just picture perfect. And while NHK was the rawest version of this FD, this Worlds one is the best they’ve skated it and one of their best skates in terms of pure skating (yes, stumble included).There’s this small moment that really captures how special they are, at 03:30 you can see Scott make a small error in the step sequences and almost clicks skates with Tessa, but he is so good, so quick on his toes that he saves it without anyone even noticing.
When will this level of artistic skating come back from war and make me feel like this again?
