#i should probably post this on my art account instead but my family lurks on my art accounts all across the internet so this will stay there

When i draw Akashi with other characters you can always interpreted it as romantic or platonic.

But you should keep in mind that in my art every other characters is at least a little bit in love with him (This obviously doesn't include any of the adults).

Even if it's just 1% and they are 200% in love with someone else, no one will ever be 0% in love with Akashi, that just how it goes.

Sunlight Hurts My Eyes by MooseFeels

Mature. Victuuri. 7195w. WIP. Alien!AU

Viktor leaves his homeworld for a job on Earth, and he meets Yuuri and– Yuuri is a curator at an art museum, and the new docent seems very interested in him.

It’s new, so I can’t really gush about it without spoil it. It’s turning out to be fun an interesting though, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

The Return of the Little Piggy by SASS_QUEEN

Mature. Victuuri. 14,341w. WIP. Fashion & Couture!AU

Everybody had their regrets in college.

For the students, it was making fun of Katsuki Yuuri.

For Yuuri, it was letting himself become too stupid.

For Viktor, it was not doing anything.

_-_

Once there was a boy named Katsuki Yuuri, who was shy, loved to make clothes, had adorable smiles and was fatter than the usual average human being. Unfortunately for him, apparently being chubby wasn’t all that accepted in the norm back then. After numerous accounts of bullying, Katsuki Yuuri disappears for good.

Now years later, there is now a man only known as Y.K. Fashion tyrant, multimillionaire, professional cold-stare giver… and is trying his ultimate best to run away from his dark past, until a certain silver haired CEO of a certain rival company who went to the same certain college he went to back then decides to flat out entangle their fates together. Do both of them have anything to say for it? Sadly, no. No they don’t.

FASHION!AU FOR YOUR NERVES! 

 Hustled by Bad_Wolf

Mature. Victuuri. 16,357w. Complete. Urban Magic/Crime!AU

Victor Nikiforov is part of a group that scams and steals to make a living. Victor is often the lead on the scams that require a more…personal touch. This particular job requires to seduce one: Katsuki, Yuuri in order to scam him out of a recent billion dollar windfall. Not a big deal. Victor’s done this a million times, seduce-scam-scram. But one: Katsuki, Yuuri is much more charming and magnetic than Victor realizes. If this is fate, then it’s a shitty, fucked up type of fate that Victor definitely deserves, but one which Yuuri (sweet, bashful, kind, inexperienced) Katsuki does not. Ah well, c'est la vie! Yuuri’s lucky break is about to shatter right under Victor’s palm.

Look Fam, This is actually part 1 of the Smoke and Mirrors series, and it’s pretty goddamn good. I’m looking forward to the rest for sure.

Just Like a Stranger with Weeds in Your Heart by MooseFeels

Explicit. Victuuri. 22,188w. Complete. Omega!Verse

Viktor sees Yuuri and he knows, he knows, he knows.

Now, you all know how I feel about Omega!Verse fic, but this one is one of those sweet soft fics. Everything is bright and nothing hurts. Canon-compliant probably. 

Also shout out to @moosefeels for being really awesome.

Death of a Bachelor by exile_wrath

Teen. Victuuri. 19,676w. WIP. 20s Crime!AU

In which Victor is at the top of the (criminal) world, and ends up falling for the hot bartender that works at a Giacometti speakeasy.

Alternatively: In which Yuuri is a bartender with a thing for the hot patron which could probably kill him but also wants to have sex with him. To be fair, Yuuri is pretty down to sleep with him too.

But things don’t go as planned, sometimes, and rather than Victor finding someone to warm his bed for a night, he finds Yuuri, who offers him an intimacy and care that he had never thought he’d have. And in turn, Yuuri finds someone achingly lonely but willing to open his heart so they can both be together in a way they had only dreamed of.

Okay team, I’m here for this. It’s shadowy, but not dark. It’s built for the faint of heart. Enjoy.

We Are Lost, but We Are Not Gone by persephoneggsy

Mature. Victuuri. 20,201w. WIP. Dollhouse!AU

The Dollhouse deals in fantasy, but Victor Nikiforov just needs one night.

At least, until he finds himself wanting more. And it’s all because of Eros, the beautiful Active that’s consumed his every thought.

Super interesting! Extra excited for when this fic gets down into the nitty gritty.

How to Fly by FamousLastLines

Explicit. Victuuri. 8,034w. WIP. Hot Mess!AU

Call it fate, call it anything else. Ending up at infamous nightclub ‘The Palace’ was completely out of Yuuri’s control. Becoming further entangled in Detroit’s party scene, however, was less of an accident. As time goes on, even the neon lights of the club cannot conceal the dark reality that lurks just beyond the surface.

By the time Yuuri realizes the only direction left to go is down, he’s already standing at the ledge, lost to the sorry look in Victor’s eyes.

I identify with Yuuri in this fic mostly because I anticipate it will perfectly mirror the grand downward spiral of 19yo 3ros. (3ros is 23 and a vaguely functioning adult now.)

I Know Where My Heart Lies by Orro

Explicit. YuriYuu. 38,047w. WIP. Role-Reveral!AU

The day Yuuri Katsuki announces his retirement from competitive figure skating Yuri is forced to admit he has feelings that extend beyond rivalry. He’s been trying to knock Katsuki off his top spot on the podium for years. It’s not fair that he thinks he can retire and leave Yuri like this.

Victor’s dream has always been to skate on the same ice as his idol. Yuuri’s retirement throws a wrench into those plans but that’s okay; Victor is flexible enough for a layback Ina Bauer so he can totally work with this. Yuuri can be his coach instead.

Yuuri just wants to eat some katsudon and enjoy spending time at home after years away at competitions. He doesn’t need these Russians barging into his retirement. They’re interrupting a supposedly peaceful contemplation of what he’s going to do with the rest of his life.

[aka age swap au where Yuuri is the 27 year old legend, Yuri is the 23 year old rival, and Victor is the 15 year old newcomer.] 

Look, Aged Up!Yuri fics are dicey as fuck, but I’m okay with this mostly because Yuri’s entire character is 23. He’s not just aged up so that he and whoever can have sex. (I mean they do end up knocking boots, but that’s not the point of the fic.) Good job, fam.

Canoe-dling: Not Prohibited by shereadsthestars

Mature. Victuuri. 12,839w. Complete. Summer Camp!AU

Yuuri is a seasoned counselor at Camp Okenoko who thought he was in for just another run of the mill, shenanigan filled summer with his friends. But he could not have been more wrong as he’s inevitably blindsided by the newest arrival.

Enter one Viktor Nikiforov, who’s got the charms and good looks to woo whomever he pleases, and who’s interest is instantly peaked by none other than, Yuuri Katsuki.

This precious piece of fic. It’s a fun quick read to lighten up your existence. Get into it.

Singular by TrashKanForLife

Explcit. Victuuri. 7,226w. WIP. 50 Shades of Grey!AU

Yuuri fiddled with the hem of his sweater, overwhelmed by the sheer formality of this floor. He’s sure his favoured pair of sneakers only cover about twentieth of the costs for the workers’ footwear and he wonders if they pay the salon daily for their sharp appearances. Yuuri does not belong here.

“Mr. Nikiforov will see you now.”

Okay so that “50 Shades of Grey” may be a little off putting, (and this fic is pretty new,) but I’m into it so far. I’m holding out hope. Bring it. 

Separation Anxiety by Okaeri_Kairi

WARNING: Rape/Non-Con, Depictions of Violence

Explicit. Victuuri. 87,944w. WIP. Mafia!AU

Deep in the dark and unsettling back alleys of St. Petersburg, a network of crime rings and rival families makes up the heart of the mafia that runs the city’s underground. Of these, none is more feared than the Nikiforov family, an infamous group that is said to be led by a man of cold blood and steel. Viktor, the son of the previous boss, knows only too well just how frightening and unstable this man is.

He is, after all, married to him.

This is the main fic in the Haven series; go read all of them.

*Unintelligible screeching* This is a really good Mafia fic. I cry just thinking about it. I’m pretty sure this is right up their with Masquerade for fics that everyone and there grandmothers want all of their friends and their babies to read. if it’s not, IT FUCKING SHOULD BE.

Also she’s making a print version with extra scenes. You guys should look out for those preorders.

Lessons in Love by fangirlandiknowit

Mature. Victuuri. 30,842w. WIP. This is an AU I just don’t know how to ! this.

All Viktor wants is for his son to be happy - and if that means spending countless hours at the ice rink, a million more in the ballet studio, and devotedly cheering for Katsuki Yuuri at every competition he enters, then that is precisely what he’ll do.

He just didn’t expect to become a fan, too.

(He didn’t expect to fall in love.)

Team. TEAM. It’s cute and sweet, and bby!Yuri P. will melt your heart just like he did mine, damnit.

Starstruck by shizuoh

Teen. Victuuri. 58,955w. Complete. Single Dad!AU

“Hold my son for a moment,” says the Viktor Nikiforov, live in the flesh, sweaty and panting.

“Wha—” Yuuri can’t even begin to comprehend what’s going on before Viktor is gone, and there’s a child in his arms.

(in which yuuri is a simple barista, viktor is a famous movie star, and yuri is an 8 year old kid stuck in the middle of it.)

*In Tears* If i could just have the podium family as Viktur & Yuuri + Kid!Yuri. P I think I wouldn’t stop reading ever. like….EVER.

The Fastest Comet That Falls by lovefrompluto

Mature. Victuuri. 14,690w. Complete. Dancer!AU

Yuuri is a shy ballet dancer who is slowly disappearing. Someone starts sending him flowers after his shows.

Come through ballerino!Yuuri angst! Also, there are eating disorders involved, do with that what you will.

Tidal by wbtrashking(fan_nerd)

Mature. Victuuri. 11,428w. Complete. Mermaid!AU

Victor’s eyes linger on one of the photographs.

Maybe he’s been up too long, straining his eyes in the darkroom, but it seems that there’s a glimmering blue tail peeking out of the surface of the ocean. It’s too large to belong to any aquatic creature he recognizes.

His heart races as the chemicals make the picture clearer. It’s quite possible that Victor has captured something spectacular.

YOOOOO! It’s everything I ever wanted in a Mermaid!AU okay?
