I just rewatched Yuri on Ice, because, you know (rip). Maybe because this time I could watch it all in one go instead of waiting week by week for new episodes, but: wow there is so much more I noticed this time around in the progression of Yuri's skating program through the series.

So up until the final episode, the arc of Yuri's program is about him embodying the idea that he's selfishly seducing Victor away from the world of skating. It's pretty clearly done out of defense - he feels insecure about Victor quitting to become his coach, and the other characters are very vocal about criticizing him for taking Victor out of the competition (some jokingly, some very much not). To get through it, he has to use the strategy of turning the thing that people hate about you into your armor so they can't hurt you with it anymore.

But - this changes at the Grand Prix Final. He's struggling with watching Victor interact with this world that Victor so clearly belongs in, wondering if he's preventing Victor from living the life he wants. And Yuri is not really that selfish of a person, despite him having spent an entire season trying to convince himself that he is. So he decides he's going to leave skating forever and set Victor free.

And ooooof watching his final free skate after this hits so hard. Like: this is Yuri getting on the ice for what he believes will be the very last time, skating a program about letting both Victor and the world of figure skating go. But it's different now, because unlike the last time he wanted to quit, this time he's not leaving out of insecurity or fear, but out of love - out of wanting to watch the people you love be the best they can be, even if that means they have to leave you behind.

and then they choose to stay together anyway because they both realize that "being the best they can be" is when they are around each other. ohhhhohhohhhhhhh my god I'm gonna cry

MINECRAFT YURI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[saphflare]

I know Mizisua is like the main doomed yuri thing here, but like can I talk about MIzihyuna because like I feel normal about them, so much.

Just Mizi, and her loving her saviors. That we have Sua who was in the dark and Mizi had showed kindness to, shining a light for them. But return they were someone human that understood them and stayed by her side enduring and reciprocating of her affection. That in the end saved Mizi by sacrificing her own life, whether fully planned or not so that she may advance the round and live on.

Then there is Hyuna who saved Mizi from the stage where she was supposed to die. That despite the tragedy and the loss of her world, she is given another one by the grace that is the rebellion and shown something that could be hope. That perhaps it isn't the same kind that she once had before, but it is another chance from Hyuna that guides her to loving life again.

And another point in that Mizihyuna is its own flavor of tragedy because oough I can't see this ending well.

That Mizi still grieves Sua and even if she was with Hyuna, she likely hasn't moved on from her old universe, after all how could she when it had defined her for so long. How could she ever do so without it hurting and perhaps making it feel like a betrayal to the person that died so she could life. Moving on from the one she devoted herself to for so long in loving. That despite everything that Hyuna has become to her and might ever be, it will never replace the empty half that was taken from her. And that even Hyuna might not be long either when there is a darkness in them, something seeking the destruction of not only a system greater than either than them but Hyuna's old shadow of her past. Because the narrative has its pattern and the world it is rooted in is one that is uncaring for any kind of love between those trying to survive and live again.

And I don't see it ending well. That in some way, when we finally see Hyuna and Lukas get their own little number together, it won't end well for whoever is going to be involved. And all I can think about is the fact that the hope in Mizi's life is going to be taken from her again and I fucking can't do this T-T

[cry-ptidd]

can you elaborate how laura's feelings for integra are unhealthy? i'm going to take a terrible shot in the dark and guess that laura sees integra as a sort of god figure who gave her the solace and respect she needed when she was most vulnerable, but i would love to know how her sense of love for her master is somewhat twisted.

Laura's love for Integra is complicated, and borders on codependent.

It's an exploration of the dynamic of an abused dog enthusiastically licking the first hand that learns to properly approach them, and just generally a guard dog/master idea.

Integra didn't treat Laura like an innocent bystander in any means, and basically had her chained under the threat of death at first. Laura didn't like her at first, seeing her as a jailer and young know-it-all (she arrived when Integra was 18), and it did take a couple years for her to properly warm up to Integra. However, and it happens often with victims of abuse, when she fell, she fell deep.

The way she sees Integra is a bit complicated; on one hand she puts her on a pedestal above other humans, but also doesn't see her as her master per se. She calls her "mistress" (or my lady), as in, the mistress of the house (the Latin word would be domina). She hesitates between not wanting anyone to have power over her, and desperately wanting Integra to own her in a way that would make their relationship meaningful - because next to Integra, she's basically dirt.

Integra treats her kindly now. She feeds and houses and praises her, accommodates her needs even when Laura doesn't say them aloud, making Laura feel understood on a fundamental level, which contributes to putting her on a pedestal.

It's also codependent. She values Integra deeply and will take great offense on her behalf, and show great violence to protect her, like Integra's this precious being that she needs to preserve otherwise she'd be lost, like she was before, because Integra gives her meaning, lets her anger be directed at an actual cause rather than long-dead people she can't take revenge on anymore, uses all her pent-up rage for a reason. Besides, her revenge didn't heal her in any way.

All of this reverence also makes Laura feel confused. Those feelings only complicate and agitate how she already feels (emotions that she avoids confronting at all costs), which causes feelings of resentment to develop next to the love and respect she feels towards Integra. At times, she really wants to hurt her, to gain the upper hand and not feel subjugated again, but doesn't dare do anything or voice any of her concerns out of fear Integra would abandon her, or make Alucard kill her (though she's a bit less worried about death and more of dying at the hands of someone she doesn't want, giving them power over her). Also, she wants to eat Integra at times. Insert Cannibalism as Desire metaphor here.

In any way, Laura loves "like a dog". With utter, desperate devotion and a mouth full of teeth.

Boo

Tktober Day 5 - Boo!

Tags: Shenhe/Yunjin, Halloween, trick or treating, flirting <3

“Trick or treat!”

“Boo.”

“A—AAAAAA!”

“Ah? Wait, you forgot your… candy…”

Yunjin muffles a giggle as the gaggle of children run sprinting from their doorstep, leaving a Shenhe with her arm still outstretched, a wrapped candy hung from her fingertips, alone.

“I don’t understand,” Shenhe says. “I was told by shifu that this behavior would delight children. I do not understand why they are screaming and running away.”

Oh my. Where to begin with this one?

“Why not shut the door first?”

Shenhe doesn’t seem to notice, lingering with the bowl of candy in her arm.

Yunjin was surprised at first when Shenhe returned home from a family visit with Xianyun with an armful full of orange, black, and purple fabrics. “For Halloween,” she’d explained, and then dove into a parsed down lecture of what her mentor had told her: that it was a tradition originating from Natlan, that it was growing in popularity amongst children overseas, and that the traveler wanted to host a Halloween celebration in Liyue. The city of commerce had no issues with a potentially booming candy and clothing trade opportunity and welcomed the new holiday with open arms.

Yunjin was no exception. The festive mood swept up everyone in it, but none more than the children who had taken to the idea of “new clothes” and “free candy” by storm; she’d ended up with matching witch outfits for Shenhe and her both to wear while distributing their sweets.

If only… the kids would stay long enough to receive them.

“Oh darling,” Yunjin sighs, rising from their sofa to retrieve the bowl and close the door. Shenhe glances at her, face unmoving, but she knows her girlfriend well enough to know the hurt reflecting in those eyes. “They’re just kids. They don’t know any better yet.”

“I know that.”

Even so, it doesn’t soothe the pain of rejection. Yunjin coaxes Shenhe back to the couch, placing the bowl on the table before wrapping her arms around the other. “It’s still early. All of Liyue will be knocking on our door later tonight, right?”

“And if they run?”

“More chocolate for us.”

“Ganyu shijie says that’s called gluttony.”

Shenhe’s mouth twitches as Yunjin titters. Her eyes slant, pleased, and Yunjin brushes back white hair with a hum. “Now that’s a face. Why not smile at the kids instead of scaring them?”

As though embarrassed, Shenhe’s face smooths. “What smile?”

“The smile you just had.”

“I wasn’t smiling.”

Really? Yunjin raises a brow, stretching Shenhe’s cheeks and lips into a makeshift smile. “How about this one?”

“Shiz nawt ah zmeele.”

“I have no idea what you just said.” Yunjin shakes her head, feeling a grin surface on her face instead. She pinches Shenhe’s cheek. “Mmm… I might have an idea on how to get you smiling.”

“Weelly?”

Oh, her sweet, gorgeous girlfriend. “Let’s give it a try.”

It’s a testament to Shenhe’s trust in her that she doesn’t so much as flinch when Yunjin gathers her arms and pulls them to the side, freeing one hand to poke at Shenhe’s stomach. Shenhe doesn’t so much as gasp.

A flutter to the sides. Nothing.

A skirt up the ribs. Nada.

A pinch to the armpits. Nope.

“Wait—are you not ticklish?” No fair! Yunjin digs in with intent now, both hands wriggling, tickling the way she knew would drive her crazy, but there’s no laughter. If anything, the amusement beginning to dawn in Shenhe’s eyes is dangerous, and Yunjin realizes too late the situation she’d placed herself in, squarely on her girlfriend’s lap. “Um—I’m just—eek!”

The poke on her side shouldn’t be a total surprise but Yunjin squeaks, erring back only to flop onto the sofa as Shenhe sits upright to straddle her instead. Heat rushes to her face at the position though it’s a little hard to focus when another series of jabs follows the first. “S-Shehenhe!”

“Like this?”

“W-whahaha do you meahahn?”

“Tickling,” Shenhe says, easy. “Am I doing it right?”

She squirms, caught between shaking her head and having Shenhe stop, or honestly nodding because her naïve, beautiful girlfriend has dreadfully perfect nails for going at her sides. At least Shenhe is slow, careful, and airy giggles bubble out of her when Shenhe’s hands crawl up her ribs in a mimicry of her own movements. “Y-you’rehehe doing okahahay!”

Shenhe frowns. “Just okay?”

Really, what is she meant to say? Yunjin’s smile widens in flustered endearment, hands rising to cover her face, arms shaking when Shenhe pinches the top of her ribs.

“You’re greahahahaat! N-nohoho, Shenhehehe!”

“No?” Shenhe’s frown softens, teasing, and Yunjin swears her heart drums louder than any opera she’d sung before. “Are you sure?”

She yelps as Shenhe digs into her underarms, hands immediately clamping to her sides in a failed attempt to protect them. The sofa creaks as she shifts, mouth wide in hapless giggles and shrieks when Shenhe moves just right, and it’s through squinty eyes that she realizes Shenhe’s hair has pooled around their faces and all she can see is the gentle smile pulling at pale lips. Beautiful.

“Y-YOUHOHA—!”

“Me?”

Yunjin whines, a low sort of noise no one would associate with the elegant singer, fingers trembling as they fail to dislodge Shenhe’s still wandering hands. Novice they may be, she’s sensitive enough that the attack is beginning to tire her out and Yunjin shakes her head in desperation. “Shenehehe, pleaheahahase!”

The plea is instantaneous; Shenhe removes her hands with ease, opting to lift Yunjin upright against her in a smooth motion that makes her giggles bashful. She always admired Shenhe’s strength but having it so cleanly demonstrated to her by her is… always a charming experience.

Even more so accompanied by the graceful curve of those lips.

“Really,” Yunjin chuckles, poking at Shenhe’s cheek. She sags against her, humming, as Shenhe’s smile remains soft. Achingly, wonderfully beautiful. “What a face.”

Shenhe blinks, lips parting. “Is there something wrong with it?”

“No, it’s perfect.” You’re perfect.

The smile that comment earns her truly is. She tilts her face upwards and the ghost of Shenhe’s breath on her is warm—

“Trick or treat!”

“Tch.”

Yunjin bursts into laughter at the pure irritation that crosses Shenhe’s gaze, yearning at once falling into barely restrained rage. Really, how could people call her girlfriend emotionless when she was so obvious? The knocking continues, a mini barrage of fists pounding on their doors with every passing second. Shenhe’s lips tremble and Yunjin bites down the urge to kiss it away as she pats Shenhe’s arm, shifting to the side so she may rise.

“Go on,” she says, gesturing to their still thumping door. “Don’t forget the candy!”

Shenhe pouts. “Can we ignore them?”

The banging almost seems to get louder. Yunjin’s lips twitch. “All the kids of Liyue?”

“None of them are as important as you.”

Oh, that does get her heart fluttering. Yunjin’s gaze softens, adoring, yet she doesn’t relent as she squeezes Shenhe’s hand. Eager as she is to spend the night trading treats and kisses with the other, Shenhe would be happier to report to Xianyun her success at reigning in her urges and appealing to the kids instead. “What will you tell your master?”

“There’s always next year?”

She laughs as Shenhe’s pout melts, loving, and it’s with a final squeeze of her fingers that her beloved rises to answer the door. The chatter of eager children spills in from the doorway, a chorus of pleas for candy and comments on the pretty jiejie, and Yunjin grins into the sofa. True to her words, the knocks continue for the next hour or two as every child makes sure to stop by their house for some sugary sweets. It’s almost a shame that no one’s noticed the best treat of them all.

Shenhe turns to her, smiling, and Yunjin smiles back.
