So we see that Viktor is the one that does Yuuri’s hair (at least some of the time) because of that photo during the credits, and that makes me wonder, who does Yuri’s hair?? Braiding is somewhat difficult, especially so tightly and far up on the head, so it doesn’t make much sense for Yuri to do his own hair when he already needs to be concerned about competing.
I therefore propose two possibilities:
1.) Some of the time, it is Viktor that does it. He had long hair for quite a while and knows how to take care of it. He and Yuri know each other well. Yuri, for all of his grumbling, genuinely respects Viktor and his talents, as we see through his insistence that Viktor choreograph his program and return to Russia to coach him. I feel it’s quite reasonable that Viktor would be trusted to do his hair.
2.) It’s Yakov. Yakov, the old man with no children of his own, who pours his heart and soul into the skaters in his care. Viktor’s family is (at least to me) likely not in the picture, and Viktor grew up spending incredible amounts of time with his coach. Viktor is talkative and affectionate and his relationship with Yakov reveals quite a deep bond — Yakov may have been the one to style Viktor’s hair before competitions as there was no one else to do it for him. When Vitya leaves and he has another young skater to look after, it makes sense that these skills would transfer over. He’d be the one standing at Yuri’s back, carefully parting his hair into sections and ensuring he is presented as best as he can be. Viktor ties Yuuri’s skates as if preparing his soldier for battle — what if Yakov’s version is styling their hair?
#yuri on ice#yuri plisetsky#russian ice tiger#yakov feltsman#viktor nikiforov#victor nikiforov#yuri katsuki#yuuri katsuki#yakov is not the father figure we expected but he is the one that I needed#viktor carrying on his coach’s tradition with his own skater#sort of like a family tradition yk#honestly letting someone touch my hair requires a lot of trust so this sort of thing is a BIG deal to me#even having people stand behind me makes me so nervous

Have to share my new skk obsession after watching the haikyu movie. So, new haikyu AU with our favorite duo, the double black. Little headcanons about their overall positions!
Firstly, I am convinced that Chuuya would be the main attacker. Obviously given his size we would think more of a libero, and I have no doubt that Chuuya could receive without too much difficulty because buddy is solid; with strong arms in addition to being fast, but no. The man is, in the manga, used to destroy adversaries against whom no one can do anything, when the situation degenerates; like an attacker, an ace, who will demolish the block of three in front of him because he has the fucking physical strength to do it. To just slam the ball against their arms and make them crack anyway. For me he would also jump super high, but that's because I go with the mentality of "in his work he literally controls gravity" so for me even when adapting it in a universe without powers I always have to note that. Chuuya would therefore be a complete player with remarkable physical abilities who could provide both defense and attack (even if his strong point remains attack, once again I take his abilities into account in bsd and adapt. In the manga he is very complete and he is an adversary with remarkable power and techniques, literally the PM's best martial artist.) but the fact that he loses his temper quickly will perhaps do him a disservice.
Otherwise to make up for it there is the our bandage on two legs, Dazai. And here too I would say that it is rather obvious. Already because Dazai in the work never really attacks himself, he makes sure to get others to do it for him and manages to make the enemy suffer without having to fight himself (typically a passer. ) but also because it is precisely the role of the “tactician” who calculates everything and reacts. The one who touches the ball the most but also someone who must open the way for the attackers. Physically he doesn't have the strength to demolish block's like Chuuya, even more because I genuinely imagine him to have a poor physical health, and so they complement each other. (I could also have put Dazai as a libero, since it is the role which cushions/removes the power of enemy attacks thanks to his receptions but that aside the role does not suit him at all. He was born to be a passer .)
#bsd#Haikyu au#Volleyball au#bungou stray dogs#chuuya nakahara#dazai osamu#They would totally fuck in the locker room#Their team would be unstoppable#Mori as the coach#Haikyu is killing me ugh#I would kill to see them reunite to break the Russian team.

started complaining to my dad about the jay clark situation and he said to me "lucy. at some point you have to tell yourself; 'i can't let a sport ruin my life'" LMFAO???
#and before i'd even finished my sentence; he said 'oh the coach has been snatched away; has he?' like how did you know.#he said 'you have NO idea what i've been through in my life as an everton supporter'#obviously YOU'VE never been a russian WAG fan#then he offered to bring round a bottle of vodka... rare dad bonding moment

*on the table, crouched like a little goblin n talking big w my hands* OKAY but a steddie au in which Steve and Eddie join forces as the first same sex Olympic figure skating pair and they hate each other initially because Eddie’s a free bird and Steve’s a micromanager but then they just realize they’re stupid into each other and and and AND!!!! FALL IN LOVE OOPS!!
#steddie#also featuring Steve’s ex and former pair skate teammate nancy wheeler#and Olympic gold medalist snowboarder robin buckley#who is STILL a klutz and a gay disaster but boy can a bitch snow a board real good#and Hopper/Joyce as Steve’s former Olympian handlers and quasi parents#Joyce did solo skate and hopper was on the hockey team which is how they reconnected after their respective divorces#and literally all the Russians in ST are skate coaches like#this is REAL and it’s HAPPENING#stranger things#userwinn

this interview was a lot lol Madi talking about her partnership with her brother Keiffer
D: you had to deal with the ick factor of skating with your brother for years, and now you can be uninhibited. talk about the challenges of skating with your brother and when you have to do tango. be honest, the Shibutanis will never tell us, so -
Madi: the reason people didn't like us together as much as the Shibutanis is because we didn't have the cute factor, we had sex factor, and i don't think either one of us were that grossed out by it. our family in general is very huggy and touchy - we kiss each other on the mouth when we say bye. we're a very affectionate family. so for us we started so young that [skating together] was always a separate thing. it's not like if we were skated tango together i was actually thinking the thoughts that maybe people saw, so there was no ick factor for us, but we got a lot of comments that there was ick factor, and i was never very good at hiding my sexuality and being cute. so it just didn't work and at a certain point our coaches also didn't see an ick factor and had us skate to things like American Woman in a midriff (Zach laughing) and so at a certain point it just stopped working, and we called that quits. then i got to skate with Zach, and i got to fully embrace my ick factor, 😅 and then people liked it
#there's interesting info about coaches#the russian coaching style#vs MFP and Romain#and the VM part 16 minutes in#i miss H/D skating

i’m never sure exactly how to word my thoughts on isabeau levito bc i don’t want to be overly critical (she is only fifteen and most of my grievances with her skating and scoring aren’t her fault), but that girl is going to end up like zhenya if her coaches aren’t careful
#i have more thoughts#but as with the junior girls i don't like to critique publicly bc yk#shes a child#but this is a criticism of her coaches who are absolutely allowed to be judged#as they are putting a child at risk of serious and permanent injury#and i will once again state that i dislike the way americans act self righteous about their system compared to the russians#because the only reason the us system is different is because they haven't managed to replicate the russian one yet#but you best believe theyre trying#figure skating#isabeau levito#mo rudaí

Hi! just wanted to let you know that bird set free is so wonderful that I am unable to read anything else. Your talent is a blessing and a curse.
I just had to look up all the ice skating moves you mentioned and it’s so beautiful to watch, I trained in ballet for about 14 years as a kid and they are vaguely similar and I think that enticed me, like a little throwback you know. Anyway, I was just curious how you knew so much about it? Are you just extremely well researched or have you skated before?
Thanks love
Hi! Thank you so much!!! This is such a lovely ask!
And also I AM SO GLAD YOU ASKED because I have ZERO experience as an ice skater (have never even worn a pair of ice skates). My Jobros bestie and technical beta @billsfangearring was the brains behind this operation!!
Going in, I knew basic things, like the names of certain jumps (like a triple axel or a quad Lutz) just from watching figure skating. But Billie was the one to tell me that there are requirements for certain elements in each type of program (we designed the whole Bird Set Free free skate entirely from scratch, even literally modeling the starting pose lol) and helped me figure out the best way to verbally describe those elements (how a jump starts, which side of the blade a skater would land on, etc).
So if it reads like I know what I am talking about, that is ALL thanks to Billie!
(Billie also helped me pick the music! Including recommending THE PERFECT SONG for a very important short program that is coming very soon 👀👀👀)
#i got an ask!#Thank you so much friend!#And thank you so much for asking this!!#I love to talk about how amazing Billie is 😍#And all the fun we had with this fic#From designing the free skate for Bird Set Free#To figuring out the perfect songs to use#To modeling figure skating poses in our respective bedrooms looool#And talking about our cats#And listening to great (and sometimes ridiculous) Jonas brothers songs lol#This started last year when the olympics were on#So we were constantly messaging about DID YOU SEE THIS PERSON'S SHORT PROGRAM#some things that we talked about went into the fic#Like how Lucius doesn't even let his skaters have water before a skate#That is a real rumor about the Russian figure skating coach#And I did research on jumps and outfits and moves I wanted to incorporate of course#But Billie was the one that made those things make sense#And would tell me things like#Watch the way THIS skater does THIS move#Aka yuzuru hanyu and the Hydro blade#Used a video of him as direct reference#But that comes later 👀#ANYWAY I'M BLATHERING BUT LONG STORY SHORT I LOVE BILLIE SO MUCH

I’m catching up on worlds and I can’t believe there are still so many people in this sport who haven’t learned we shouldn’t be hyping the youngest athletes up to an unreasonable degree
#figure skating#this is about Isabeau pretty obviously#but recently liza tuktik said she’s made peace with not going to the olympics but she’s not done skating yet#and i have so much more faith she will still be healthy and skating at 29 than anyone of those 15/16 year old girls she competes against#no idea who will still be here in 3 years#and also someone on Reddit posted about a non-russian junior landing a quad#but they put a troll face over her coach’s face#oh great#another child doing insanely difficult tech content with a bad coach#this is a problem across countries#but these young girls are either juniors or a small number of senior skaters early in their careers#lets sit back and give them some time#say they have potential#praise them for what they do well#but don’t go beyond what is reasonable#don’t put all that pressure on them#it’s clearly not turning out well#there are so many injured russian girls#Sasha broke down on international television#and kamila of course#Alyssa wasn’t a worst case scenario but it still wasn’t a great one#tara lipinski herself is the second youngest woman to ever when the Olympics and the youngest to do it in the individual event#and she retired very young with a hip injury#the youngest ever to win the olympics doesn't hold the individual title because she burnt out after the team event#and it wasn't just a bad skate - she didn't make it long#i loved tara when i was a kid#but 15 is too young to be doing this#so happy the age limit will be raised next season
