Otabek shoulders his way past the onlookers, arriving at Yuri's side just in time to stop him from kicking a guy laying on the ground, nursing a bleeding nose and trying to crawl away from Yuri. “I think that's enough excitement for one night, tiger."

In which Otabek is Yuri's bodyguard, but he isn't particularly good at it. Which is all Yuri's fault, really.

Otayuri Week 2025 - Day 3

Exceptions

(I know the tags are god awful but it's the best I could do lol) Chapters: 1/1 Words: 1,185 Archive Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply

This was written for Otayuri Week 2025 from @otayuri-challenges! I wanted this one to be a little longer but decided I just couldn't stretch it and was running out of time, but I'm still pretty happy with it! I can't wait to see what everyone else wrote for this day!

Summary after the cut

Otabek looked confused, but realization washed over him. He rubbed a thumb over Yuri’s hand. “So, you’re ready to date?” he asked. “Yes…kind of…no.” Otabek laughed. “You don’t have to be ready,” he reassured in that tone of voice that Yuri always managed to fall a little more in love with every time. “I am, I am. I just…I don’t know.”

Otabek hummed, considering for a second. He chewed his lip in thought, and that sight alone helped Yuri to make his mind up a little more.

“How about a deal?” Otabek proposed. Yuri raised an eyebrow but knew Otabek’s intentions well enough to let himself take the bait. He waved his hand, signaling for him to continue. “What if we do things like Katsuki and Viktor? If I win tomorrow we'll go on a date.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yuri makes a lot of exceptions for Otabek, but love is one he's having a hard time with.

As for the mandatory stuff, please use this tagging system when posting on Tumblr:

This is absolutely mandatory. When posting on Tumblr, please put all content relating to NSFW work below a "keep reading" divider. This ensures that your work can be reblogged onto this blog and given the love it deserves safely.

Otayuri Week 2025 - Day 2

Sore Loser

Chapters: 1/1 Words: 1,191 Archive Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply

This was written for Otayuri Week 2025 from @otayuri-challenges! I ended up using the alt prompts for this day because I wasn't vibing with the day 2 prompts, but I can't wait to see how everyone used them!

Summary after the cut

Yuri was not a sore loser. At least, not in public.

It was no secret that his career was a shining gold star of perfection. Yuri was the golden boy of the skating union and the apple of every coach's eye. More importantly, he almost never fell on the ice.

Almost being the keyword. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yuri falls during his routine, but Otabek knows just how to make him feel better.

[rufusrant]

gah!!!

Yuri has an almighty mishap in the kitchen. Otabek, as always, consoles him.
