ooooh skin stuff?? what products do you use / what's your routine? im super nosy and fascinated about this stuff lol

oof, sorry this took so long to answer, i ended up writing a whole damn novel… my b. Anyway i buy my skin care pretty much exclusively from yesstyle (minus a few exceptions, but i’m always open to new suggestions! i am gonna take a look at jolse soon) so i’ll just link the products from there. Also i have a little dinky code for like 2-5% off if you wanna save like… $1 it’s 5NAYTT

Disclaimers before i start though, I have normal skin (i know i’m so lucky uwu) so i generally don’t stress about whether my products work better or worse for dry/oily skin—but i do tend to favor more hydrating/moisturizing products. Also i’m no esthetician or dermatologist, most of my knowledge comes from product reviews, skin care videos, and my own personal experiences. So basically take everything I say and share with a grain of salt :))

We’ll start out easy with my morning routine:

1.) Mostly i start by wetting my face with warm water. you can also wet it in the shower if you’re a morning shower-er(?) but i’m not lol. IF my skin is feeling really dirty in the morning for some reason though (like if i sweat real bad on a summer night or drown in a pool of drool x-x) i’ll start with the Perfect Whip foaming cleanser

i find that most mornings, bc of my more extensive night routine, my face isn’t often in need of a cleanser

but i really like this bc you get SO MUCH use out of so little product; i use less than a dime-size amount per wash. but i do use this little foam maker thingy which builds up a better and faster foam than using my hands—not necessary but very convenient. there’s also foaming nets you can try, but i’m not familiar with them.

i don’t completely dry my face after use; i like it damp when i apply the toner

2.) Apply Klairs Supple Preparation Toner

i personally use the original version as i don’t mind essential oil scents, and my skin doesn’t react negatively to them. If oils bother you for whatever reason though, you might want to try the unscented version!

i also pour this into a spray bottle (you can pick these up pretty much anywhere but these are cute if you wanna order some) and apply via spray. No reason other than I just don’t want to buy cotton pads :)

3.) Apply Snail Repairing Essence

i use this pretty much as a moisturizer but you might want to use an additional cream or something if your skin is on the drier side?

4.) Apply SPF

okay so… i don’t actually have a rec for this bc i just use whatever my mom has. and i haven’t actually gotten a korean sunscreen yet bc i don’t go outside and i’m that person (who is v dumb) and doesn’t apply spf consistently in the winter -.- but rest assured, i’ll get some eventually lololol

Okay like i said, pretty easy in the morning! I don’t use essences, just bc i’m still young and a lot of them seem to be focused on anti-aging things that aren’t my main concern. And I prefer to use my serum at night bc it’s got vitamin C and i just told you i’m bad at sunscreen

But night time is where it gets complicated fun:

1.) Hop in the shower (but if you’re not a nighttime shower-er then you can just cleanse out of the shower) and go in with the Clean It Zero cleansing balm (this also has other versions: purifying, revitalizing, and nourishing but i’ve only ever used the original)

i usually do double cleansing at night, so this is my oil-based “first cleanser”

but i have been known to um… “gloss over” this step if i’m being lazy….. -.-

i like oil-based cleansers bc they’re a nice, gentle way to remove makeup (as opposed to wipes and stuff) and i do use this to remove eye makeup as it personally doesn’t irritate my eyes; i also prefer balms over straight up oils bc they’re more fun ^-^

anyway, i massage it on, emulsify, and rinse! also, if you’re not in the shower, i would keep my face damp after rinsing.

2.) Perfect Whip foaming cleanser while still in the shower

pro-tip, if you have a foam maker, i would make the foam BEFORE you start. that way you can just apply it right after the balm!

again, i keep my face damp after rinsing off the foam and hopping out of the shower

3.) Klairs Supple Preparation Toner returns!

again, i have mine in a spray bottle so i spray it on and tap it in!

4.) IF IT’S SUNDAY, then i will go in with the Lemon Sparkling Peeling Gel next

this is a chemical exfoliator (i finally ditched my knock-off st. ives XD) and i only use it once a week

5.) IF IT’S SUNDAY, and i have one available, i’ll put on a sheet mask next

sheet masks are… honestly all the same to me lol but i order these innisfree ones all the time; my regulars being green tea, tea tree, and aloe (they’re actually cheaper on their website tho so…). i also really wanna try the A’PIEU Milk Packs particularly in banana and strawberry, so i’ll probs order and try those out when i can justify spending the money on a whole bunch (knowing me i’ll turn it into a whole $40+ order lol)

i leave these on for 15-20 minutes (usually 20), take it off, and pat the remaining product into my skin

also there’s usually some left over on the other side of the mask and/or in the package that i’ll massage onto my neck and body (we try not to do not waste product in this house!!)

if i’ve done a mask, then i will most likely skip this next step

6.) Apply Klairs Vitamin C Drop

this is pretty much my daily serum as it helps with improving my dark spots and hyper pigmentation (my main skin concern)

i take 3-5 DROPS in my hand… that’s it, i literally wasted so much before i finally decided to stop dropping it onto my face.

apply and pat that bad boy all over!!

7.) Snail Repairing Essence returns!

again this is my probably-not-supposed-to-be-but-idfc moisturizer so i just slap it on!

8.) Almost done, here’s the Snail Repair Eye Cream

this is actually new, but i bought a smaller tube bc 1. i didn’t want to spend a bunch of money on something that might irritate my eyes. and 2. i didn’t. want. to spend. a bunch. of money. but the little nozzle is actually really helpful for getting a small, good amount of cream actually XD

so i’ll squeeze a little line (more like an oblong dot tho) under each eye and use my ring fingers to glide that up to the lid and pat in the product.

9.) Last one! Berry Lip Mask

basically…. i even buy korean knock-offs lololol

i just apply this to my bottom lip (my top lip never causes me issues??) and let it sit over night

Anddddd that’s everything! Very nearly got to that 10 step dream but, no essence, no clout i guess. Anyway, i do have some additional pro-tips too:

If you’re buying/trying new skin care products, be patient and introduce them slowly. it’s hard, but this way—if one or more products are causing a reaction—it’s easy to just cut it out of the routine. Also i like to think it gives your skin time to become used to the new ingredients and to “normalize” before piling on new stuff (but that could be total bs lol)

“Listen” to your skin; use products that make YOUR skin feel good, and use products when YOU need them. especially with serums and stuff, invest in products that will help you to address your skin concerns and achieve your skin goals (whatever those may be at the time)—and not someone else’s. Also don’t be afraid to admit if a product’s not working, better to chuck it than ruin your skin you know?

From someone who’s experienced a very unpleasant, burning unibrow :))) don’t remove hair on exfoliation day and avoid putting a lot of product on sensitive areas. Also, doing some sort of cleanse before hair removal helps to reduce the risk of dirt and stuff getting into the exposed skin.

Oh and be gentle with your exfoliators (whether physical or chemical) DON’T SCRUB FOR THE LOVE OF PETE to avoid cuts and burns!

If you have a spot (or feel one coming up) , use some sort of spot treatment. you’re much less likely to pick with something if it’s covered up by a patch (these are my faves) which will reduce irritation and formation of dark spots.

Be as hygienic as possible! There’s no towel drying steps in my routine for two main reasons. 1, i like keeping the moisture and hydration from the water as long as possible. and 2, bacteria. is. everywhere. Towels are pretty gross when you think about it and limiting contact between them and your face will probably greatly improve your skin’s health. Also avoid touching nozzle or dropper applicators directly to your hands or face: that way the applicator won’t come in contact with any bacteria or germs and transfer that gunk onto your face every time you use it. Washing your hands and/or tools that DO touch your face is also important in, again, reducing the spread of random gunk.

Take it slow, relax, and enjoy it! Skin time is my relaxation time (especially sunday nights oml so awesome!!), it’s honestly one of the best parts of my day just being able to kick back and take care of myself. Try not to make it a chore, it isn’t supposed to feel regimented or overwhelming, but relaxing and fun!

Okay that’s really it!! And yeah this got really really long….. sorry if you actually only wanted my yesstyle recs XD

#i really didn't mean for it to be this long #i just kept on typing #idk this stuff gets me excited lolol #let me know if any of you guys use these products or have any recs #i'm always on the hunt for new stuff to try!!#plus i'm also nosy and fascinated by people's routines and go-tos XD #asks #should i start a skin care tag?#i'll put it here just in case #kspice.care #non sims #Anonymous

Favorite Kylux... things

So, it’s my four month anniversary of diving head first into the kylux trash pit and not coming up for air, so I thought I would put together a random list of my favorite things. This is by no means an exhaustive list of essentials for noobs, just some things that have shaped my own personal headcanons according to what I enjoy about the pairing and what I find myself coming back to for inspiration.

But if you were interested in Kylux as a noob-- this is 100% without a doubt the list of AO3 fic recs, fanart recs, and tumblr recs I would drop at your feet (before quickly running away so I wouldn’t have to witness your confused reaction).

Settle ‘round young padwans, this is going to be a long one...

AO3 Fic Recs

These recs are roughly in the order I’ve read them, and all are part of my public bookmarks on AO3.

In the Dark by @reserve

This mostly pwp gets at Ren’s deep insecurities in a way that brings the kylux trust to an unexpected level of intimacy. This was one of the first fics I read and really said, “Oh, yes. Now this is the pairing I can get behind.”

Aware of His Own Halo by @badspacebabies

Hot Mess Hux is such a refreshing role reversal. This fulfills all of my: ‘So what would Hux do without the First Order?’ needs. I could read a good 100K more in this universe. Also the sex is incredibly hot.

fever to tell by @irisparry (elements of dub-con)

There’s nothing nice or easy about their dynamic in this one. Ren’s impulsive need to possess Hux, his restless pursuit of Hux’s memories, his mind, leaves them both on the messy edge of consent. Neither of them really knows what they’re doing-- and that makes it all the more compelling.

Tinder and Flint by @that-vicious-vixen

I’m such a sucker for a well-written Emperor Hux AUs. This one, one of the originals, is so so satisfying. The tension between Hux and Ren is so lovely here.

Our Fragile Co-commandership by @ilyn

As someone who enjoys writing dialogue, I love the banter in this. The way Hux and Ren play off of each other makes me smile all the way through. They are so well matched and at ease in each other’s presence, which is hard to balance while creating believable characterizations. This nails it.

Wracklines by @badspacebabies

Post-Starkiller kylux. I love the vulnerability in both of them as they’re left confused and bare with only each other to lean on in the wake of Starkiller, even when Snoke is demanding they separate. Hux’s reluctant acceptance in caring what happens to Ren is so emotionally compelling. I’ve read this series a few times-- and it’s one of those gorgeous pieces of prose where I can discover something new I like each time.

Children Wake Up series by @hollyhark

This is a long read that is so so satisfying if you’re into alternate universe fics that branch off from canon. There’s so much to love about this one, but something I think doesn’t get mentioned enough is the interpretation of Snoke and his deeply disturbing, psychological influence over Ren. After reading this, I was disappointed by Snoke’s treatment in TLJ because he’s so much more dimensional and downright scary in this fic. His presence is felt everywhere throughout this series, and has greatly influenced how I see him in my own personal headcanon.

Somewhere in the Half-Light by @hollyhark

This mostly-PWP fic set within canon hits so many of my kinks. Orgasm delay, praise kink, rushed half-clothed sex. Urgency. Love it.

Gold and Stone Series by @hollyhark (WIP)

This plot is so very engaging! I love the characterizations of the Knights of Ren here and how the Force bond works between Ren and Hux. The differing Hux and Ren POVs contribute so much mystery to the plot. I try not to read WIPs because I can’t take it when I read something I know will be left unfinished (even in my own writing), but I couldn’t resist with this one. I can’t wait to read more!

Hunger by @eralkfang @badspacebabies @reserve

The dynamic between Hux and Ren is so interesting here. I love the slow-build toward intimacy that I can’t really describe without using the word sensual, and the narrative prose is just spot on. I’ve read lots of things by all three of these authors, so to see all three write something together is just-- yes.

I don’t Want Love series by @saltandrockets

I’m honestly not one for kid-fic or mpreg, but the way this plot is structured and the believability of the characterizations, it just makes sense here. It’s not all fluff and roses, and I think that’s what I appreciate most about this.

Savages by @kdazrael

The Hux character study!!! This makes him so multidimensional I can’t help but keep it in the back of my mind as part of my own personal headcanon. The core worlds society + Hux’s backstory is so dynamic and interesting here.

Resuscitate by sailaway

Classic Kylux with heavy D/s themes. I love how different this is from my initial interpretation of how kylux might work within the SW universe. This is my Classic Kylux reference.

Flyboys by @gefionne

I’m always reluctant to read things just because other people say I should-- but THIS. This one, though. The WWII British Royal Air Force AU that deserves all the fandom hype it receives for how good it is. The world building and emotional slow build is so so satisfying. I’m still reading through this and loving every minute!

Fanart Recs

Young Jedi Killer by @littleststarfighter

face off by @littleststarfighter

Ties-Kylux by @schaloime

Bruised and naked Hux by @generaldeepthroat

Death by @night-cf

It’s the one thing you had to do by @andiiwalker

bruised Kylo Ren from Hux’s perspective by @fancymaul

3:47 am by @themightynyunyi

General Hux: daily life on the finalizer by @milisk

Paper isn’t Useless... by @convallarias-art

shower kiss by @rollynn

Ren behind Hux by @first-disorder

The Supreme Leader is dead... by @merriru

'It’s not his blood he’s wearing.’ by @littleststarfighter

Kylux Anthology Piece by @queenstardust

(I’ve taken some liberties with titles simply for my own reference... I hope none of the artists mind.)

Tumblr recs: quality blogs I regularly enjoy & reblog

@chillanddrinkcoffee @mademoisellebianx @kyluxempire @kinkshamekylux @sleemo @huxblush @dagturn @ondolindiel @hex-n-hart @textsfromfirstorder

@kyluxhardkinks @softkyluxkinks @kyluxcantina

My own humble fic offerings would not exist without any of the lovely creative geniuses mentioned above. So above all else, THANK YOU. Without knowing very many of you personally (*waves nervously* “hi!”), whether you’re still involved in kylux or not, you guys have no idea how much fannish joy you’ve brought to my life over the last four months!

Anyone else who’s reading this, please remember creators thrive on feedback in whatever form, so go and give them some love!

If you want me to remove you from this list for whatever reason, or if I’ve f-ed up any of the links, just let me know. I’ll probably do another of these in the coming months as I tirelessly consume more content.

The Starhawk and the Slave: Chapter 4

Yondu’s (accidental) rescue by the Ravagers.

Characters: Stakar Ogord, Aleta Ogord, Yondu Udonta, Martinex T'Naga, Mainframe (Marvel), Krugarr (Marvel), Charlie-27 (Marvel)

Additional Tags: Slavery, Torture, Rape, Abuse, child endangerment, Non Explicit, it’s all in the past, flashbacks in later chapters

Read Chapter on AO3, Read Entire Story on AO3

Aleta was alone.

She’d run off the rest of the stragglers - her ‘girls’ as Stakar so creatively called them - and sat in the darkness of the forgotten rec room she’d laid claim to years ago. She needed silence, which she was greatly enjoying until the door opened and Charlie ducked his head inside. “Permission to enter?”

“You’re already in, you know.”

He lumbered inside, sitting on the floor rather than testing out the durability of one of the chairs. It was probably for the best, they’d learned years ago that most chairs weren’t meant for someone of his size. Hauling a replacement down to the old rec room would just be annoying. “You’re brooding.”

“I am not.”

“Yes, you are.”

Aleta glared at him, breaking the silence again to ask, “Did my husband send you?”

“Is he your husband again? I lose track.”

He was. They’d re-renewed their vows as Charlie was more than aware. He’d been there for crying out loud. “You’re a dick.”

“I’ve always had it.” He patted his crotch with a grin.

The most frustrating thing about Charlie - in Aleta’s mind, most people considered it one of his better qualities - was his inability to be drawn into arguments. Bar fights, tussles with customers or clients, brawls among the crew, illegal street boxing - anything physical and violent you couldn’t keep him out of. But when it came to fights with words he refused to step up to the plate, no matter how much Aleta goaded him.

“Where’s Marty?” she huffed, pushing herself up, a bottle of whiskey swinging from her hand. The Pluvian she could fight with. He wasn’t as fun as Stakar - swing a fist at Martinex and he’d probably jump under a table (or you'd break your hand on his face) - but he would quite happily yell back if she pushed the right buttons.

“With Mainframe, working on something of Udonta’s.”

“Udonta?” It took a moment for Aleta to process what he was saying. “Is that the slave?” She took a swig from her drink and felt the burn as it slid down her throat. “Damn,” she muttered, mostly to herself, “he named it?”

“You do not like him.”

“My husband or his newest pet?”

Charlie laughed, swiping Aleta’s bottle from her and downing half of it in one gulp. “Both, I suppose.”

Aleta snatched her drink back from him, making sure to cuff him upside the head. “He’s already attached. We don’t need any more kids around.” They’d just die, after all. Charlie’s eyes saddened and he patted her shoulder, mindful of his strength for once. Aleta resisted the urge to shout at him for being stupid and sentimental. She was the one who’d brought up the kids after all.

Tara. Sita. John.

As little as Aleta and Stakar talked about them - or any part of their past - word got out. Stakar talked about them more than Aleta did, he claimed it helped. He even went so far as to suggest that she should try talking to someone sometime. But her method was to keep them in a small, private place near her heart, where they were hers alone, not his.

“Something bad’s going to happen,” Aleta vowed, gulping the rest of the bottle in one swig. “Something with that boy and it’s going to destroy him.” She paused, looking at the now empty bottle and wondering if it was worth finding another. “It’s going to destroy us all.”

“You’re being melodramatic.”

She probably was. But there was still a creeping suspicion in her chest that things Stakar loved never seemed to stick around for long.

Stakar hadn’t considered the logistics of someone never having touched food before, but thankfully the medic, Arc, had caught him before he could accidentally give him something to eat.

“He said his stomach’s hurting,” Stakar explained, feeling slightly put off by Arc’s horrified face. “I thought food would help.” Udonta hadn't said anything so much as he had pointed at his stomach when asked if anything was bothering him, but it was close enough.

“With all due respect, Captain, food is the last thing he needs.”

“That’s fair.”

Arc tilted his head and sighed, pulling at the blue fur on his fingers nervously. “I’ve given him a shot to get his organs working again - without being used for so long, his stomach has likely shut down - which is the cause of the pain.”

“They hurt because they shut down?”

“They hurt because he’s never used them before. The shot I gave him is waking them up.” Arc sighed and reached for something on the wall behind his desk. Stakar took the opportunity to spare a glance over his reading material, unsurprisingly, it was all on Centaurians. “Give him this,” he said, passing Stakar a cup. “It’s just water with a bit of nutrients. See how he takes it.” Something in Arc’s eyes said that he half expected Udonta to spit most of it back up.

Joy.

Stakar took the drink with a nod. “I’ll see what I can do.”

Udonta was sitting up, looking around him with interest when Stakar entered his room, but as soon as he saw Stakar he slumped back, looking at the floor.

“Are you feeling better?”

“Yuh.” At least he had managed to remember that word, even if it was the only word that Stakar had managed to teach him so far. It was a start, even if it was a slow one.

But Stakar wasn’t convinced that he was magically feeling better, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he sat beside Udonta’s cot, dropping the cup Arc had given him onto a table. “Are you lying?”

It was the kind of question he would have posed to one of his friends - Aleta, Mainframe, Krugarr, Charlie 27, or Martinex - he hadn’t considered the impact it would have on the mind of the fragile rescued slave.

He also hadn’t considered how quickly Udonta could move when he was frightened.

The Centaurian practically threw himself to the ground at Stakar’s feet, pushing his forehead to the floor and licking at the ground. It was just as he had done in the cell earlier - or was it the day before? Stakar hadn’t slept and had lost track of time - but this time, the captain’s feet were within reach. Before he could do process what was going on, Udonta was pressing frightened kisses to Stakar’s boots as well. When Stakar stepped back he flinched, clearly expecting a kick, and managed to whimper, “Sor-rey.”

Kneeling beside him, Stakar placed his hand on his shoulder and ignored his flinch. “Hey, kid. Look at me.” He waited until Udonta was able to lift his head and meet his eyes, then he reached out and gently stroked his forehead. “I’m not angry. I’m not going to hurt you. No one is going to hurt you. I know you don’t understand. But please, try.”

“Tr-y,” he sounded out.

Stakar offered him an encouraging smile, wrapping an arm around Udonta’s frail shoulder and rubbing his back. “Let’s get you back into bed,” he said, pulling them both to their feet. Udonta leaned into Stakar, seeming to cling to the comfort of a gentle touch. Humoring him, Stakar settled himself on the bed beside Udonta, letting the other bask in the attention as he pointed to the cup. “That’s for you.”

Udonta tipped his head back, staring up at Stakar with confusion clearly written on his face. Stakar picked up the cup. “It’s a drink,” he explained. “Do you know what that is?”

There was a slight nod, and Stakar pressed the cup into Udonta’s hand, wrapping his fragile blue fingers around it and tapping his finger against the straw. “Suck.”

Udonta’s response to that word was instant, shrinking back from Stakar, his eyes darting to the other’s crotch, confusion and hurt in his eyes. “Not- no. Not that.” Trying hard not to think about what that reaction meant, Stakar took the cup and took a sip, then passed it back to Udonta. “Try it.”

He did as instructed, managing to get some of the liquid into his mouth. Immediately he grinned - just as toothy as the last time, but more genuine - and much of it spilled back out onto his shirt.

Stakar made a point of laughing, hoping that Udonta wouldn’t panic over the spilled liquid. “Good. Very good.” Udonta blinked up at him, one eyebrow slightly raised. “Do you like it?”

The Centaurian paused from licking his lips long enough to say, “Yuh.” He took another sip, managing to swallow most of it that time, and Stakar patted his shoulder. To his surprise - and glee - Udonta was more than happy to lean back against him as he continued sipping on the drink and Stakar checked in on his crew through his comm.

Author’s Notes:

I’m doing Camp NaNo this month with one of my own stories so updates will be slow. I’m still counting my fics as word count though because I can and I want to. I MAKE THE RULES. Plus if I write about my characters 24/7 I’ll be fed up with them pretty quick.

I KEEP WANTING TO CALL HIM YONDU AND IT TRIPS ME UP EVERY TIME I CALL HIM UDONTA. I promise he’ll get his first name soon. For the sake of my sanity. Also for the sake of my spell check with thinks, I'm writing a story about Udon Noodles.

Also, FYI, I’m making up tons of medical shit as I go. Yondu’s an alien so I doubt WebMD is gonna be much help anyway.

Don’t worry, Aleta will come around. I just wanted to info dump some of their past and she wanted to whine and also fight everyone. Mostly Stakar. She’s definitely going to fight Stakar. Ravagers don’t have a concept of “domestic violence” so I’m tempted to add that to the story’s trigger tags???

And I'm continuing my joke/headcanon about Stakar and Aleta having numerous divorces because no one stopped me.

Soo, "Yuri on Ice"!! I also love that show, I watched it in 2 days straight XD Hope you enjoy it greatly!! -YOI-lover-anon out

ANONYMOUS ASKED

I’m very curious to know what you’ll think of YOI :)

so i keep wanting to read YOI as yaoi and be like, yes i shall give u My Thoughts on Yaoi (/joke probably no one gets anymore).

anyway i finished watching all the episodes, so general impressions/reactions below:

i watched the first episode in the original japanese with english subtitles but there were SO MANY russian words used/referenced that it started to drive me nuts not to hear them in actual russian. so then i watched the last 11 eps dubbed in english

i was really confused until @plays-with-shadows explained accents to me how viktor (WHICH SHOULD BE THE SPELLING OK THAT IS HOW U SPELL IT Y DID THEY SPELL IT WRONG) and yuuri could even communicate bc presumably viktor would be speaking russian??? and then elan explained that in the original japanese they used different japanese regional accents to signify when characters were speaking japanese or russian or english. so viktor was communicating with yuuri in english. so that was cool to learn.

i really disliked viktor at first bc i was like, I Know Guys Like You, and bc he’s kind of a dick in this really specific slavic-y way that i can tolerate much better in women and absolutely adored in my grandmother but just super bothered me in viktor. but then he kind of grew on me, especially when he started trying more sincerely to be a good coach for yuuri and learn what he needed and started to move forward to being an actual person who actually maybe feels things once in a while. then he hit right in my emotional robot character kink feels and now i kind of love him.

similarly, i was hella hella dubious of yuuri and viktor’s relationship at first and why anyone would ship that??? bc i was like, okay at 15 i might have been into this thing of your idol/celeb crush suddenly turning up in your life and forming a relationship with you. since, like, lbr, at 15 i was TOTALLY ON BOARD with the idea of dating johnny depp and thought that would be gr8 and didn’t think at all about things like age differences or power imbalances in relationships. but idk at 30, i am like, dude that will never work out. that can never be healthy when one person puts the other up on a pedestal (and viktor at that time seemed to have no interest in taking himself off that pedestal). but then yuuri seemed to realize that viktor was a person and has faults and kind of sucks as a coach and can be a dick, and called him out on it. and then i was like, yes good i can get behind this. now im really looking forward to seeing them compete against each other in the next series (WHY DO I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL OCTOBER give me moar noooooooooooowww) bc for me that also brings more equality to their relationship and im also about equality in my OTPs. (tho tbh im more about, im a dick, you’re a dick, we’re dicks at each other, but if ANYONE ELSE is a dick to you, i brutally smack them down - that kind of equality)

was that a hug? was is it a kiss? im so confused what happened there, if viktor kissed yuuri or just flying tackled hugged him. generally i am confused about their relationship and where it stands. like, i think my impression is that yuuri has a crush on viktor, is still not really ready to admit to it (at least not to viktor, even tho viktor totally already knows bc it’s yuuri and he’s not subtle), and viktor is … on the slow path of realizing he has feelings and that other people have feelings and those can both be influenced, and that is uncomfortable and scary. see: viktor getting all freaked when he made yuuri cry / viktor getting all shout-y when yuuri made him cry ❤️

i want a ton of fic where yuuri and viktor deal with and fail over and discuss the cultural differences between russian culture and japanese culture

the italian skater seems hella incest-y for his sister

i totally believe the swiss skater and viktor slept together at least once i mean come on

YURI IS MY SMOL ANGRY RUSSIAN SON AND I LOVE HIM AND WANT TO BURY HIM IN TIGER-PRINTED THINGS mój cenny mały tygrysku ❤️❤️❤️

like if dean and cas had a son, it’d be yuri. ANGRY, but with a lot of sensitive feelings beneath that, and hella determined to prove himself

i really liked how viktor and yuri’s relationship developed, that viktor really sincerely supported him and hugged him in the final at the grand prix

overall, i really liked it. it is very gay and happy-making and some of the dialogue is just amaze. I WILL MAKE U INTO BORSCHT (barszcz) is legit my new fav insult ever.

where are the fics??? give me fic recs

#a 7% solution #anonymous #yuri on ice
