YOI Future!Verse ABO AU - How Chris joined the family

Chris is Yuuri’s 5th husband in our big polyamorous family, and back in November when I was doing the family portraits, I also typed out some text headcanons explaining how they joined which I posted on my Patreon.

For Chris’s birthday, I’m sharing Chris’s headcanons publicly today!

Long, under cut, Chris x Yuuri-centric!

IF YOU ARE NEW TO THIS AU: It’s a Yuri!!! on Ice AU, Yuuri-centric with end-game polyamory in an ABO setting, Yuuri gets married to six mates and they have OC kids.

BASICS and timeline of this AU

OTHER POSTS (comics + illustrations) in the Future!Verse ABO section of my YOI Masterpost.

Here's some headcanons for how Chris ends up in this family:

In general, it goes much like this: Victor and Chris have always been BFFs with a LOT of benefits, and while they've never been romantically in love they're very platonically in love, as well as sexually and they did a lot of their sexual exploration together.

Chris has always been very attracted to Yuuri and has been pretty open about it (especially his fondness for his ass LOL) but he's also never been interested in looking for a committed relationship. He likes being very open and having fun with a variety of people who're also interested in the same. He's an extremely experienced lover who always makes sure that his partner(s) are having a great time, but he just never wanted all the additional emotional stuff and makes sure his partners are always aware of this.

Yuuri in this AU is pretty demi--he's quite oblivious about romance/sexual attraction for the most part, and can't really feel sexual attraction towards anyone he's not emotionally attracted to first. He's definitely the wrong partner for a one night stand or a casual open relationship, and Chris figured this out pretty early (while they were still Juniors), and was content to admire from afar and tease once in a while, occasionally quietly scaring off people who didn't get it from the shadows.

Then comes college and Phichit, then comes along Victor and Yurio, and while Chris has always been a friend/friendly acquaintance? with Yuuri, with Victor comes a closer position to Yuuri. Then comes marriage and Chris was like whelp, he had fun with Victor and it's gonna be weird (and honestly a bit lonely) never seeing him in the bedroom again because that's something they've always had, but it was bound to end one day...but Victor was like that's stupid, if Yuuri's alright with it and Chris wants to continue their open sexual-platonic relationship, then that's something Victor wants too because while not essential to their friendship, it's still part of them and what they share.

And Yuuri's okay with it, he genuinely really likes Chris and more importantly knows and trusts Chris, has honestly known him (however from a distance) the longest out of all of them? And while Chris is very firm on his lack of interest in a committed relationship, he's also honest about his attraction to Yuuri, and Victor's pretty happy because his relationship with Chris is something he'd like to share with Yuuri too. Given his experience now with Phichit, Victor, and Yurio, Yuuri feels a bit more confident and honestly if he's gonna trust anyone else it's gonna be Chris and he'd be lying if he said he didn't find Chris attractive, so...

...is all it was supposed to be. Chris comes to hang out a lot because he's still Victor's BFF and Victor has a sweet house, he was already friends with Phichit but he's getting along better and better with the others (and for some reason often ends up coordinating with Otabek), of course he's delighted to share any time with Yuuri, the sexytimes are fun and flexible, and the kids are adorable and Chris doesn't see himself wanting his own so all the more reason to get attached to your best mate's, right?

And sure, when he gets a temp job in Asia he sorta more or less moves in (semi?) permanently (like why would you ever even think about a hotel if your friend lives in an ice rink-hot springs palace?), and sure he sorta gets his own personal room, and sure he sorta helps Yuuri train the lil ones at the rink and then helps Minami tutor the kids in schoolwork and yeah he just went grocery shopping so Yurio can make dinner but like, that's normal right???

Another thing that's sorta been on going with him and Yuuri that was supposed to be entirely a joke is that they call each other really disgustingly cheesy pet names. Like Yuuri in general isn't very fond of super coupley pet names and sure he'll throw around a "Yes dear," once in a while, he honestly cringes a bit at "Honey," "Baby," "Babe," etc. But with Chris it's always been nothing but play-pretend so they toss these around very casually without batting an eye along with the mutual ass gropes that have just become part of daily routine, and Victor finds it endlessly amusing because anyone uses those pet names and Yuuri'll make the Face of mild disgust.

And then there's Yuuji. This is going to be the topic of one the upcoming Yuuji-centric 4Komas, but Yuuji goes through a phase when he was younger and just starting to talk where he just calls EVERYONE "Papa." Because he likes the word, because there's a lot of Papas and the parents assume he's just trying to figure out who he can apply it to, there's a lot of people and it can get confusing so it's fine if he takes his time. Yuuji gets bored of calling everyone other than his actual dads Papa within a few months, but for some reason has NEVER stopped calling Chris and Otabek this. Even when he, like the other kids, learns to call the dads by first name when talking about them in 3rd person and there's a need to distinguish them, he still goes back to calling them "Papa" in 2nd person.

Yuuri's terribly flustered that Yuuji refuses to stop calling Otabek this even though Otabek says he doesn't mind, it's quite an honor really, and Yurio thinks it's hilarious, and Yuuji looks so smug Yuuri throws up his hands and goes fine! whatever.

With Chris though, it sorta very naturally falls in place with their Honey-Darling mock relationship, and whenever Yuuji says, "Papa," Chris always returns "Yes, son?" without batting an eye. They're pretty sure Yuuji knows that's not the case at this point but whatever, what's the harm?

...So one day Chris wakes up as usual in the Katsuki household with Victor snoring on one arm and Yuuri on the other, and Yuuri mumbles, "Good morning, Babe," and Chris automatically responds, "Morning Honey," and they kiss with nasty morning breath, and Yuuji pokes his head in the room and sees that Chris is awake and says, "Papa, the dogs want to poo," or some shit, and Chris is like alright son let's let the dogs go poo.

And while he's watching the dogs prance around in the back yard with Yuuji dangling from his back, drinking coffee that Phichit had made, Chris sorta thinks--what the fuck am I doing? And how long have I been doing this? Is it just me or has this been going on for more than a decade? When was the last time I had some fun (or even wanted to) with anyone outside this family?

...Is it just me or am I already more than committed?

........and then when Victor finally crawls downstairs and has his coffee too and Yuuri's still sleeping in with Yurio and Minami, Chris is like, so uh, mind sharing Yuuri's ring size...

And Victor may or may not have spat out his coffee before ringing Phichit down from his office and they may or may not have exchanged money because the fucks had apparently been betting on him and Chris just sorta groans because his friends are terrible but this is apparently his life now.

....is basically what I have planned at the moment ^ ^;;;;;

#YukiPri rambles #Future!Verse ABO AU #Text Headcanons #Christophe Giacometti #ChrisYuu #Polyamory #yeeeeeep so here it is <3 #He falls into place very naturally LOL #No sudden fireworks or mindblowing epiphanies or sudden wildfire romance #but I think this is romantic too in its own way <3 #lemme know what you think <3 #also LOL if you think these HCs are long wait until you see Beka's AHAHAHAHAH I wonder when that's going up...

OtaYuri fic recs #27

The Worst Part by Halrloprillalar (prillalar), explicit, 1.4k, warning: underage

After Worlds, Otabek and Yuri's sightseeing plans are rained out so they're stuck in Otabek's hotel room. Yuri has one question for Otabek.

The worst part is Otabek doesn't know why. Things have been okay between them on Skype and Telegram. They talk several times a week and message a lot more. They've been talking during the competition, though there hasn't been time for much, mostly Yuri chattering and Otabek listening. A single flaring kiss in a corridor, before someone came around the corner and they pulled apart.

Bitter Blue by BoxWineConfessions, mature, 42.6k, nomad!Otabek, shepherd!Yuri

“Got you something,” his husband supplies in quick explanation. Yuri thrusts a small lump of warm down into his hand. It takes him a moment to fully understand. Large eyes too big for it’s small frame, sharp beak, pointed feet that would someday grow into talons which would shred, useless stumps of wings that would someday sprout feathers and soar.

Otabek holds a small goshawk chick in his hand. The creature blinks at him a few times as he blinks at it, both stare at one another in confusion and rapt fascination.

Five Things Yuri Plisetsky Loves Very Loudly (and a quiet one who loves him back) by Rosie_Rues, teen, 13.4k

Yuri and his passions. Eventual slash, once they've grown up a little more.

There’s More Room in a Broken Heart by Blownwish, explicit, 4k, warning: underage, watersports

Yuri will do anything for Otabek.

Cocked And Loaded by CatAvalon (CazinaIna), explicit, 3k

“Can’t you move?” Yuri says, at last glancing over to where he’s standing, and it’s the final straw for Otabek. “You’re kinda distracting.”

I’ll show you distracting.

Otabek comes home whilst Yuri's playing video games, and decides to get his attention in the most suggestive way he can.

Star to Every Wandering Bark by Rosie_Rues, mature, 16.4k, demi!Otabek

Six years, in which everything goes wrong and then everything goes right. Otabek almost floats away, but Yuri is like gravity.

Cat's Cradle by tootsonnewts, general audiences, 2k, mafia AU

Otabek strides into the tiny bistro, senses on high alert as usual when he heads into small places to make deals. It’s worse for him now, considering he isn’t altogether sure what the Ice Tiger of Russia looks like, specifically. All he knows is that he’s in a building with only enough room for maybe fifteen tables, looking for a blonde. It’s not much to feel confident about.

Otabek and Yuri cross paths in a cafe to do a deal.

I'll cover you by onotherflights, explicit, 6k

Part 2 of the New York Verse series

What am I doing?

He wiped the steam from the mirror so that he could look at himself. He tried to clear the thoughts clouding his mind.

It's him, it's Yuri. What am I afraid of?

In a Sea Change Nothing is Safe by sophiahelix, general audiences, 2.2k

Yuri doesn't text him much over the next summer. Otabek gets several pictures of his cat, which he finds boring, and one early morning selfie. Yuri’s looking out the window, not at the camera, and the sun lights up his golden hair, spilling over the pillow.

There's a kind of hushed stillness to it, like Yuri is caught in motion or holding his breath, and Otabek stares at it for a moment because it's so different to how he's used to seeing him. No snarl or rolled eyes, no smirk, no emotion at all, except that peaceful tension. Like Yuri’s waiting, or wondering.

your hair is so long now, he sends back.

(Kazakh) Gentlemen Prefer Blonds by Lady_Ganesh, explicit, 6k, Otabek/Yuri/Minami

Yuri just wanted a night alone with his boyfriend. That was before Minami Kenjirou came along for the ride.

It works out.

The Bodyguard by ArabellaFaith, explicit, 51.6k, escort!Yuri, bodyguard!Otabek

Yuri is a high class escort that specializes in fetish. If you can dream it, he'll make it happen - for a price. But putting himself at the mercy of his clients has ended badly before, and he hires bodyguard Otabek Altin to step in when things get out of hand. It's supposed to be an easy job. It's supposed to be just work. Neither of those things stay true for long...

Otayuri Rec List

CANON

Come Alive by Ren [1,006]

"Can I sleep with you?" Yuri asks, and Otabek's heart skips a beat.

Something More Intimate by Val_Creative [1,294]

Dating usually brings up personal stuff Yuri dreads to let anyone know. It's probably why he avoided it all together. Without trying, Otabek sees Yuri for who he is. He accepts what Yuri tells him without question or taunting.

Hamster in Kazakh is Still Hamster by mousapelli [1,498] {Part 1 of This is Otabek's Hamster}

Otabek has a hamster. Yuri regrets teaching him how to use instagram.

A Roe By Any Other Name by mousapelli [1,848]

The only thing keeping Yuri on his feet is pure spite and the promise of the 4AM Tsukiji Market trip that the first morning in Tokyo definitely necessitates.

on the verge of running into your arms by RennieOnIceCream (Hitsugi_Zirkus) [1,876]

“Yurio is a good boy -- uh, when he wants to be,” Yuuri said with a smile. “But in all I think he’s not very used to friends and not very...affectionate.”

“Not cute at all!” Viktor agreed, though he was grinning through the insult.

“Just be patient with him and don’t be surprised when he shows his spikes,” Yuuri said, attempting to smooth Viktor’s words over. “Either way, we’re glad you both can get along with each other and be friends.”

Otabek wasn’t quite sure what the two of them meant -- Yuri had yet to reject Otabek in any way. In fact, with everything Otabek asked, Yuri always accepted him inside his heart without question.

Unexpected by henriqua [1,902]

“Your hair,” is his simple response that definitely doesn't give any answers to the questions in Yuri's mind.

Feet first (Don't Fall) by gunboots [2,361]

Otabek wishes that he could unstick the words from his throat, that he could just explain to Yuri why he matters. The proximity of someone he's been looking at for so long, this close—makes it almost impossible.

The hotel pool by womanroaring [2,525]

“Mila was flirting with you,” Yuri burst out, flicking his eyes up to a spot on Otabek’s shoulder.

“Was she?” Otabek asked, and Yuri lifted his eyes up to his face again. Otabek’s face had relaxed a little but his eyes were even more intense than usual, like he wanted to read Yuri’s mind through his facial expression. Yuri scowled again and looked down at his shoes.

“She’s not really my type,” Otabek added lightly after a second or two.

come over here & overwhelm me by xintong [3,348]

In the summer Yuri turns 16, he grows 6 inches, drowns Viktor in his own tears, and falls in love.

Hands On Education by BewareTheIdes15 [3,945]

Sometimes Yuri forgets that Otabek is older than him. And not just in the "has four years of seniors on him" way or the "his old-ass body is going to crap out of competition before Yuri’s does" way or the "doesn’t have to go to fucking tutoring everyday because he graduated, the lucky bastard" way. Because, like, yeah, all of that’s true, but on any given day it doesn’t particularly matter. They mostly do all of the same stuff, and know all of the same people, and have the same job, so, like, what’s the big deal, right?

Tongues.

Tongues are the big deal.

💖 every time I try, every time I win bythissupposedcrime [4,715]

At least no one’s brought up couples costumes. Yuri isn’t sure how Otabek would react to a live recording of him leaping over a table to fight a reporter, a symbolic stand in for the death of Yuri’s sanity and Victor’s cutesy legacy. He guesses not well, and that is enough to hold his tongue.

Or, Otabek is naturally romantic, Yuri is naturally clueless, and somehow they work it out.

Back and Forth by kiyala [4,840]

Yuri convinces Otabek to get snapchat, just to send selfies of himself making faces at Victor and Yuuri. He gets more than he expected.

💖 Two Make a Pair by mousapelli [5,009]

It started out as a joke, socked feet on hardwood flooring, but somehow the pair skate became something much more for Yuri and Otabek in the end.

Sequel: Come When Invited by mousapelli [4,458] Companion piece: Good as Gold by Beltenebra [1,719]

Have not. Will not. by mongoose_bite [5,583]

Yuri knew perfectly well that Victor hadn't always been a moron; he'd looked up to him for years. As far as he was concerned all of Victor's problems stemmed from a single source.

Determined to learn from Victor's mistakes as well as his successes, Yuri took the simple vow not to follow in his footsteps.

No matter what happened, he wouldn't fall in love.

One for the Road by Lumieres [6,129]

“Please, take me away —“ Yuri’s text had been so abrupt that Otabek had to glance at his phone once more to make sure he wasn’t dreaming.

(Or: Yuri is so focused on his career, he doesn’t notice Otabek slowly falling in love with him.)

I Won't Put This One on Instagram by teslatempest [6,132]

“Oh. Shit.”

Otabek sat up, a little concerned by the tone of Yuri’s voice. “Is everything alright?”

“Remember how we agreed we weren’t going to tell anyone we were dating until after this season?”

“...yes?”

Darts Made of Hummingbirds by LiviKate [6,881]

Yuri is struggling with his body as it changes. Otabek is struggling with his feelings about it.

Otabek is struggling with the fact that he even has feelings about it.

down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em byunhookingstarswithoutpermission [7,180]

“Why didn't you reply to my texts?” Yuri feels himself ask, and he immediately cringes. He almost expects Otabek to laugh at him, but what he gets is a dead-serious boy who replies, “I've forgotten my charger in Kazakhstan”, and he feels like he's going to burst either into tears or into hysterical laughter.

“You- you are so stupid.” Yuri's voice breaks on the last syllable. “I told you, it didn't matter if you couldn't make it to my birthday.”

Otabek lies against the door frame and raises an eyebrow at him. “You don't want me here, then?”

Sonata in A Major by Lumieres [8,035]

Yuri is like a meteorite, caught in his atmosphere. If he doesn’t take care of him, he’ll completely burn up, and there won’t be anything left for him to salvage.

(Or: Three times, Yuri and Otabek kiss, only to never speak about it again.)

5 firsts + 1 time it all made sense by aphhun [8,726]

Yuri pressed his forehead against Otabek’s and closed his eyes, nuzzling in contently. The words were unspoken, but by the way, Otabek’s arms around him tightened and drew him into the embrace further? They both knew what hung in the air between them. It didn’t need to be said; maybe it was better if it wasn’t. The easy realization they shared was more than enough.

💖 who can sing both high & low by infiniteandsmall [8,848] {Part 2 of a shore, a tide (no clock, no end, transmit: transcend!)}

Yuri likes how people guess his age right after he shaves his head. He likes how it feels when Otabek rubs his hands over the stubble on the back of Yuri’s neck.

He’d liked the feeling of Katsuki’s hands, firm but gentle, wrapped around his skull as he’d passed the clippers over Yuri’s head in smooth, practiced strokes.

It’s not until a few months after he shaves his head, when he shoots up to one-hundred-eighty-five centimeters, that he realizes he misses the quiet thrill he hadn’t even noticed he’d felt when waitresses in restaurants had called him “ma’am.”

💖 Endurance and Peach Tea by chapstickaddict [11,447]

It takes three years for Yuri to figure himself out and get his head on right. He drags everyone along for the ride. Otabek is the only one to go willingly.

💖 My soul is an empty carousel at sunset. by dawnstruck [13,857] {Part 1 of Demi!Yuri}

Yuri grows up and grows older and grows into himself. Otabek helps. It just takes a while to get there.

💖 i walk my days on a wire by idrilka [14,526] {Part 1 of in medias res}

Asia sucked without you,” Yuri admits eventually after a moment, as he falls backwards onto the bed, his t-shirt riding up. It must be still hot in Saint Petersburg, if the forecast is to be believed, but Yuri has the hood up, obscuring his face at this angle. “But we all went back to the hot spring run by Katsuki’s family after the Fukuoka show, so I guess it wasn’t that bad.”

Somebody to Love by aphhun [16,654]

They've been best friends for four years, since Barcelona. Yuri Plisetsky is positive that he's thrown it all away in one miscalculated half-drunk instant.

CANON DIVERGENCE

But I’m Not There Yet by sarahyyy [4,535] {Part 1 of songs about love}

“Are you not going to read the article?” she asks, flopping onto his bed. “Look who ranked second, just after Phichit Chulanont.”

Otabek reluctantly scrolls down, and oh.

#2 - Yuri Plisetsky

In the embedded Instagram photo just under that subheading, a very grumpy Yuri is cuddling a very grumpy-looking cat. The caption reads: I found the cat version of me at the shelter today. #iknowisaidnomorecats #canyoublameme

this speed's too much to stop by sarahyyy [1,496]

“Do you…” the man trails off, frowning. “Do you dislike Prince Otabek?” he asks quietly.

Yuri arches his eyebrows. “I’ve never met Prince Otabek,” he says truthfully. “But if he has to go to all this trouble to find someone to marry him, then logically, there must be something wrong with him.”

2843 miles by henriqua [2,124]

Yuri bites his lip and glances out of the window, feeling like even the very gloomy Saint Petersburg is laughing at him and his miserable crush on Otabek, even though Yuri grimaces when he thinks of the word crush.

admiration in falling asleep by viscrael [4,000]

Rooming with Otabek is fine. It really is—they’re best friends, Otabek is the perfect roommate, and there’s nothing about each other that they don’t already know to make it weird.

💖 science of the social by aphhun [8,862]

Otabek, young CEO and darkhorse of the wildly famous Altin family, isn't exactly on top of his social media and engagement with fans and business opportunities alike. Enter Yuri Plisetsky, social media expert and his new personal advisor. Beware the comments section of Instagram.

💖 infinitesimal being by sarahyyy [9,816]

Yuri snorts, and pushes his glass of ice tea away. “Alright, it’s been fun listening to your story, but I actually do have other more important things to do than to listen to you telling me that I’m destined to be your bride.”

He stands, and Otabek follows suit. “If it’s the terminology you have an issue with-”

“It’s not,” Yuri assures him. “It’s more of the fact that everything you’ve told me so far sounds like a goddamn fairytale that only children believe in.”

💖 hood & glove by Fahye [12,473]

"I don't mess with the fae," Otabek says.

"I'm not asking you to mess with them," JJ flat-out lies.

💖 Gravity by Fahye [15,902] {Part 2 of Yuri!!! in Space}

His Grace the Archduke Yuri Plisetsky wins the Ballistic Grand Tournament in his debut year, at the age of fifteen.

Things go downhill from there.

Somebody to You

Genre: Fanfiction (OtabekxYuri) Fluff

Word Count: 1.3k

Warnings: Not applicable

Description: An Otayuri!songfic based on Somebody to You (feat. Demi Lovato) by The Vamps.

Author’s Note: I have been having some trouble getting inspiration for fics lately, so it would mean a lot if you would send me a song, prompt, or other form of inspiration here! It would mean so much! I usually upload a fic once a day, so I will definitely get your prompt in! Thank you!

Click here for my masterlist!

Yuri’s POV

Yeah you! Yeah you!

For some reason, my laces were being quite stubborn today. I forced the laces to loop, but they kept bunching up and I had to re-lace them again. My fingertips were turning a fiery red from the pressure.

I used to wanna be Living like there's only me And now I spend my time Thinking 'bout a way to get you off my mind (yeah you!) I used to be so tough Never really gave enough And then you caught my eye Giving me the feeling of a lightning strike (Yeah you!)

I felt a tap on my shoulder, looking up to see Otabek, laced and ready to skate.

“Ready for practice, Yuri?”

I shook my head. “I can’t seem to get my laces tied.”

Otabek smiled fondly. “Here, let me help out.”

He bent over, taking a lace in each hand and getting to work on the skates. His nimble fingers pulled the strings taught, pressing down on the knot as he tied the laces together in a bow. He repeated the process on the other skate.

When he finished, he wrapped his hands around my ankles, looking up at me softly. I swallowed as I felt a warm blush creeping up my cheeks. He smiled brightly at me, bracing himself on my ankles as he leaned up and kissed my cheeks.

I touched the spot that he kissed after he pulled away, my cheek still tingling with electricity, making me blush harder.

“Are you ready to skate now, Yuri?”

Look at me now, I'm falling I can't even talk, still stuttering This ground of mine keeps shaking Oh oh oh, now!

“Y-yeah,” I stuttered, mentally face-palming myself. He helped me up, lacing his fingers with mine as he led me to the ice. As my feet hit the rink, his hand got tighter around mine, and I squeezed back, taking a deep breath.

All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you

We skated onto the ice. Otabek spun me around, bringing me closer to his chest as my blushed deepened to a blood red shade. I lost my balance for a moment, grabbing onto his shirt out of instinct.

As if my blush couldn’t get any darker.

Otabek smirked and chuckled, wrapping his hand around my slim waist and pulling me up. I closed my eyes and took a breath, getting used to his proximity.

Everybody's trying to be a billionaire But every time I look at you I just don't care 'Cause all I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you (yeah you!)

We started skating, dancing and spinning on the ice. I looked down, focusing on my feet, before he grabbed my chin softly with his thumb and forefinger, bringing my head back up.

I smiled at him, moving his hand from my waist and breaking away from him. His expression grew confused, and I laughed, skating away quickly, throwing myself into the air and landing a perfect quadruple Lutz.

He shook his head in disbelief, accepting my challenge.

“You wanna play dirty, Plisetsky?” He threw up his hands dramatically. “Let’s play dirty.”

I used to ride around I didn't wanna settle down But now I wake each day Looking for a way that I can see your face (Yeah you!) I've got your photograph But baby I need more than that I need to know your lips Nothing ever mattered to me more than this (Yeah you!)

Otabek skated to the other side of the rink, using only one foot to round the corner before jumping into a triple loop. He landed it, smirking.

I scoffed. “Is that really the best you can do, Altin?”

I threw my hands back, spinning myself around and skating down the rink, stopping to spin a few circles around Otabek before landing a triple Salchow.

Otabek skated past me, jumping into a quadruple Salchow.

“You haven’t seen my best yet, Plisetsky.”

Look at me now, I'm falling I can't even talk, still stuttering This ground of mine keeps shaking Oh oh oh, now!

I laughed loudly, skating past him in a small sequence before attempting a quadruple loop.

All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to youEverybody's trying to be a billionaire But every time I look at you I just don't care 'Cause all I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you (Yeah you!)

I missed the jump, crashing into the ground. My side was on fire, and my leg hurt badly.

In a moment, Otabek was at my side, lifting me up bridal style.

“Are you alright, my tiger?” I blushed at the pet name.

“Y-yeah, I’m fine.” I lied. I shifted, making myself comfortable in his arms.

Otabek smirked. “Do you want me to put you down?”

“Not really.” I smiled, kissing his cheek in a sudden burst of confidence.

Look at me now, I'm falling I can't even talk, still stuttering All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah you!)

With me still in his arms, he began to skate slowly in circles, looking into my eyes longingly. His hand reached up around my head and brushed my cheek so lightly that I may have missed it if my senses weren’t freaking out at the moment.

All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you (Yeah you!)

I tapped him arm, signaling him to set me down. He did so immediately.

I grabbed his hand, leaning up and kissing his nose before spinning us around on the ice. His hand found it’s way back to my waist, dipping me down and spinning us again.

“You are so damn cheesy,” I laughed.

“Only the cheesiest for my Russian tiger,”

All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you All I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you (Yeah you!)

He pulled me up to his chest, our noses almost touching.

“May I?” He whispered. I nodded, swallowing and blushing a firetruck red.

He softly pressed his lips to mine, tangling his hand in my hair. I threw my hands around his neck in return. The kiss was soft, light, almost innocent. He tasted of chapstick and mint toothpaste.

He pulled away, smiling at me wide enough to form crinkles at the crease of his eye.

“I could definitely get used to that.” He purred.

Everybody's trying to be a billionaire But every time I look at you I just don't care Cause all I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you (Yeah you!)

I smiled, pulling him back in. His kisses were wonderful, soft and powerful all at the same time.

“I could kiss you all day,” I mumbled against his lips. He pulled me flush against him, deepening the kiss.

We jumped apart at the sound of a high-pitched squeal coming from the side of the rink.

Cause all I wanna be, yeah all I ever wanna be, yeah, yeah Is somebody to you (Yeah you!)

Victor was standing on the sidelines, with Japanese Yuri immediately throwing a hand over his mouth to silence him. Victor was flailing around giddily.

“How long have you guys been here?’ I demanded.

Victor broke away from Yuri’s grasp, ignoring my question. “You guys are so cute! We could have a double wedding! Yurio would look so cute in a suit, don’t you agree, Otabek?”

I groaned, burying my head in Otabek’s chest.

Yeah you!

Hey, now that majority of the Anime of Summer 2017 have been released I guess it’s finally time for me to give all of you my thoughts on the Anime that I have watched this season, I will also be giving an overall rating based on the first episodes and if it’s worth watching or not! Now let’s start!

MB Oji-san’s thoughts on Summer 2017 Anime

1. Action Heroine Cheer Fruits: So apparently this series focuses on a group of... I believe middle school students, try gaining more visitors to their small home town by creating their own action hero group, which is a popular trend in their year... The series does have quite a simple concept and the character designs are quite nice, a cute girls doing cute things show that has actual goals, kinda reminds me of Sakura Quest with the concept of bringing visitors to a small town in the country but lacks the all the amazing things it has, it’s something easy to watch but nothing fantastic, 6/10 (Try at least 3 episodes if you want to give it a shot) *Update: Dropped, I have better things to do rather than watch a sub-par show about a group of girls becoming a live action hero group. Would have probably enjoyed this if I was still a kid

2. Ballroom e Youkoso: I’ve seen this series jokingly called, “The Straight Yuri on Ice!!” that got a bit of a chuckle from me, but knowing that I was never a big fan of any form of dancing I knew that this series would have to do a lot to get me invested to keep watching it, and surprisingly it did, aside from the designs of Haikyuu! the soundtrack and animation of this show is pretty great and I find it quite amazing that our MC who was questioning himself about his future managed to gain such a great passion of ballroom dancing just from watching his now current tutor doing the art himself during a competition, not to mention all the girls in this show seem really cute (especially the one voice by Sakura Ayane) 8/10 (I highly recommend this show, one of the best of this season but do the three episode rule also if you find yourself losing interest afterwards)

3. Battle Girl High School - Apparently this is a mix of idol and cute girls fight monsters to save the planet series? Well this show has plenty of cute girls, yet the designs are kinda weak (that one girl that looks like Miria from Cinderella Girls always bugs me tbh) the plot is nothing too special, would be something you can get from some random Anime phone game, which this Anime originated from, but tbh some scenes are cute and I did follow this series closely because one of the girls are voiced by Ozora Akari’s seiyuu so... this show might not be for everyone but watch if it if you want to watch cute girls doing cute things while saving the world 6/10 (3 episode rule) *Want to drop, but cannot due to Akari’s VA voicing one of the girls

4. Centaur no Nayami - Here we have this season’s monster girl series... and honestly I find it a bit lacking compared to Winter’s Demi-chan... sure this series may have some Yuri undertones and cute girls but I find this world’s underlining politics and evolution system a bit unsettling... which is apparently connected to the story of our main cast later on but it seems just so oppressive despite the series’ cute SOL look, it’s good though and if you like cute monster girls go ahead and watch it 7/10 (3 episode rule at best)

5. Fate/Apocrypha - Astolfo, Modred, and Jeanne D’Arc, that should be enough for you to watch this Fate series 8.5/10 (Go ahead and watch it, no need to watch all the Fate series, you still should but this is set in an alternate universe) *Update, Changing the score to a 7, not even Astolfo can save this series

6. Hajimete no Gal - the goddamn MC of this series does not deserve Yukana... despite the stereotypes of gyarus, she’s a sweet girl who’s way out of the dude’s league and you almost want to punch him for all the stupid things he does later in the series 6.7/10 (3 episode rule, or watch if you’re a harem ecchi fan) *Want to drop but can’t, I want to see if Yukana dumps the MC’s sorry idiotic ass

7. Hina Logi ~from Luck & Logic~ - This spin-off of the Lock & Logic series has got to be one of the Animes of Summer 2017 that has impressed me the most, despite having a much more moe style compared to the original series, Hina Logi’s OP animated with paper cut-outs was honestly SUPER IMPRESSIVE, it has got to be my fave OP animation of this season. Not to mention the action scenes are impressive as well, the character designs are nothing to write home and this show does have it’s own share of fan service but it’s honestly pretty fun! 7.5/10 (Watch the original Luck & Logic if you wish to view this one, the original is pretty good would rate it the same score as Hina Logi)

8. Isekai Shokudou - honestly one of the best looking shows this season, despite not having too much of a fantasic plot, you can call this series “the fantasy version of Shokugeki no Soma without foodgasms” well sexual ones at least, but just a simple laid back series about a regular restaurant owner serving customers from another world with his cute fantasy world coworkers 8/10 (highly recommend, watch if you want a nice looking laid back series)

9. Kakegurui - man the ugly facial expressions... the stakes of the gambling games... the GREAT OP but s**tty ED... the fan service... this is actually a really good series tbh 7.8/10 (I recommend it, watch it if you want a well animated series with some nice psychological moments and high stakes)

10. Katsugeki Touken Ranbu - Ufotable + Samurais??????.... it’s OK 7.5/10 (3 episode rule at best)

11. Knight's & Magic - Honestly I feel like this series is being over hyped, I don’t know if it’s because the main character that was formerly just a working programmer mecha otaku who is reincarnated as a pretty boy voiced by Megumin’s seiyuu or good ol’ Chu Chu Yeah! fhana singing the OP (tbh I kinda feel the opening to be one of her weaker songs but eh that’s me) but I can hand it to this series for having well animated robot fight scenes and monsters, I’m kind of a hipster so I hate over hyped series but as a reviewer I will not let this effect the score I’ll be giving it 7.5/10 (I recommend it to people who want a pretty good looking isekai series with some badass looking mechas)

12. Koi to Uso - Despite the character designs of this series seeming a bit wacky sometimes, the coloring of this series is absolutely beautiful, and can I just say the concept of government arranged marriages to counter Japan’s declining child birth rate and Lilina was enough to get me to read all the released chapters of the Manga? Heads up, Yusuke is best girl 8/10 (highly recommend if you’re into good romance with some drama)

13. Made in Abyss - Such simplistic character designs yet unique... such a wonderful soundtrack that I was only wishing it could be Post-Rock... wonderful world building of a world so beautiful... this show is also apparently super dark so as a Metal fan... beauty within the darkness is greatly appreciated 9/10 (HIGHLY RECOMMEND but warning, the source of this series shows that the Anime can get SUPER DARK in later episodes so I’ll be giving you a heads up just in case you can’t stomach it, one of my fave Animes of 2017 next to Tsuki ga Kirei)

14. New Game!! - OVERRATED but... nice Yuri vibes, fan service, cute characters and scenes eh 7.5/10 (watch if you have seen the 1st season)

15. Princess Principal - I just can’t get over the character design choice of this series... moe despite being a serious edgy steam punk spy series... well edgy moe series like Yuuki Yuuna are masterpieces so I won’t let it bug me too much, the OST and scenery of this series is great 7.8/10 (watch if you want cute girls doing edgy spy stuff)

16. Tenshi no 3P! - lolis and some loner teenage dude make music, the ED is pretty Metal but god... dude gonna go to jail 6.5/10 (eh 3 episode rule unless you like lolis go for it) *Update: Dropped! I don’t care for the “Metal that’s always used in Anime” ED, I’m not watching this obvious as f**k Lolibait

17. Youkai Apartment no Yuuga na Nichijou - this has an old anime vibes, which isn’t a negative statement, it’s positive, simply an Anime about a dude who wants to live in his high school's dorms so that he wouldn’t be a burden to his uncle and his family ever since losing his parents and residing in their house, sadly said dorm is burned down in a fire and he ends up living in a supernatural apartment and finding out he has powers to help others, a really nice laid back series the soundtrack choice can suck at times and the character design and coloring is nothing special but I can feel heart in this series 7.5/10 (3 episode rule at best)

18. Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e - this series impresses me, not only with the great coloring and each character have unique individual designs, just the usage of quotes from writers of great and the concept of the students in the school these series takes place in with only the superior classes only truly mattering is a bit cliched but interesting 7.8/10 (3 episode rule at best)

19. Aho-Girl - Funny as heck and short, always making for a good laugh and the fan service in this show merely makes me laugh compared to being aroused, love the voice choices for A-Kun and Yoshiko, reminds me of Yusuke and Futaba from P5 8/10 (highly recommend if you want to laugh)

20. Netsuzou Trap -NTR-: Only 10 minutes or less per episode???? DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well this series already makes me feel conflicted despite being Yuri but damn the Anime ain’t nothing special aside from that 7/10 (uh want Yuri which is super rare, watch it but the NTR element will make you question yourself)

21. Tsurezure Children - Nice, short good romance comedy Anime, makes your heart skip a beat while laughing 8/10 (watch if you want a good short romcom series)

22. Gamers! - I honestly wonder how the studio got all the rights to use all those game refrences, suprisingly is quite a good watch despite the MC being kind of a wimp 7/10 (Watch if you like a different formula to the “club” genre)

23. Teekyu S9 - Time for more wacky Teekyu stuff 6.5/10 (uh you should pretty watch all 8 previous seasons if you want to watch this)

24. Isekai wa Smartphone to Tomo ni. - tbh a decent isekai series, not too much of that generic crap and every action the characters do feels meaningful 7/10 (Watch if you want something that’s a mix of serious and comedy isekai)

THOUGHTS ON CONTINUING SHOWS

Aikatsu Stars - Koharu’s back and that’s all I need 7/10 (honestly I see the writers are pulling a “Love Live!” writers move and might make all the future episodes way too similar to the 1st series, which sucks since Stars! felt pretty OK despite the low ratings)

Re:Creators - Overrated, that’s all, this show is getting boring, the girl from the Eroge is saving this show 7/10

Shingeki no Bamahaut: Virgin Soul - Still good, I’m just wondering if Nina will be OK, cause I don’t want anything bad happening to her 8/10

Boku no Hero Academia - I love Ochako, that is all 8.5/10

Sakura Quest - the new OP and ED are “meh” compared to the first ones but the 2nd cour seems pretty good and it was pleasant to hear fluent Spanish in an Anime of all places 8/10

Sagrada Rest - DROPPED, but it’s OK, JJBA Part 5 will come after this boring ass show too ded for me/10

Victuuri Week Day 4: Free for All

Title: Kimi no Taion, Kimi no Kanshoku (Your Heat, Your Touch)

Rating: T

Summary: If they never did anything more than what they already had done that would be fine. It would be perfectly fine, they’d learn together what was and wasn’t okay. And that was enough for Yuuri

Or, in which Yuuri is asexual and hasn’t told Victor. Communication and fluff ensue

Notes: slowly making progress at catching up but it’s time for day 4! Thank you free for all day for giving me the chance to write about something I’ve been wanting to for a while, which is dealing with ace-spectrum Yuuri

This is kind of a personal one since I’m a sex repulsed asexual and since this post basically confirms demi Yuuri it’s not that far of a stretch for demi-ace spectrum Yuuri right? I have a post over here explaining my thoughts in more detail.

Oh yeah, just a bits of a head up this fic does deal with discussions of sex/topic of sex and a small anxiety/panic attack so just throwing that up as a warning! Other than that it’s mostly fluff, communication and cuddles so enjoy!

Words Count: 1,501

[AO3 Link]

It’s a realization he only comes to after being in America.

While he loves Japan and his hometown, there are some things that they are a bit behind on. It’s only after he comes to Detroit that he realizes what that feeling had been, that weird discomfort of when people made sexual jokes or talk about anything involving the subject. The laughs and waving off of when others asked him if he’d do someone, showing him a picture of said person in question.

Yuuri was asexual.

It felt right. Back at home, he never could understand people wanting to be that close to someone (other than for the obvious reasons, he understood that it was necessary for reproduction reasons), even if people had said that he’d understand later, that he’d eventually feel that way in his life. Yuuri just couldn’t wrap his mind around the fact that the main thing you could want in a relationship was to have sex. Even if he didn’t have that much experience with romance other than his one sided crush on Yuuko, he couldn’t ever see that being the most important thing with romance and relationships.

It was okay that he felt differently, there were other people out there that understood; Phichit had been the first person he told after looking it up one day in their dorm room. Phichit simply smiled and hugged him, saying he was happy for Yuuri, that he understood what he meant. While he hadn’t told his parents in person; he’d brought it up during one of his regular phone calls with his parents, his mother had cried but said she was happy for him and that no matter what she would still love him. Yuuko and the rest of the Nishigori family had been told by his family under his own request, and they understood as well. Minako had learned the same night of the rest of his family, and while she had wished to hear it from him, she was glad for him.

Thus he accepted it and told himself that everything would be okay.

That is, until one Victor Nikiforov had shown up naked in his family’s hot springs, declaring himself as Yuuri’s coach and things went from peaceful to chaotic.

Yuuri’s not exactly sure how things ended up like this, but suddenly having your childhood idol (and not to mention crush) show up like this, it’s a lot for the mind to wrap around.

One thing he’s learned in that time is that Victor can be extremely clingy and affectionate. The first time they really get to talk Victor’s running his hand down his arm to hold his hand, holding his chin with his other and looking straight at him. Yuuri can’t help but back away not only from shock and the level of intimacy, but for the other pressing issue.

Ever since finding out he was asexual, physical contact became a bit of a struggle. Phichit throwing an arm around him casually and the casual hugs was something that took awhile to get used to, and his family while they love him, keeps their distance. It’s something he’s had to accept as them trying to be understanding, plus he’s always been a bit hesitant with physical contact even before finding out he was asexual.

But with Victor, personal space doesn’t even seem to exist. He’s lost track of how many requests he’s turned down of asking to sleep together (besides the obvious implications, there’s the box of posters hidden under his bed and he’d rather die than have Victor find them), acted like he was burned every time Victor touched him and having to avert his eyes whenever they were in the hot springs.

It gets worse when Yuri Plisetsky shows up, Onsen on Ice is to happen and he’s been given the task to skate to eros, a song about sexual love. Yuuri wants to die right then and there on the spot, but if he’s going to have Victor as his coach, he needs to be able to skate to it. Even after he finds his inspiration in the form of pork cutlet bowls (he still can’t believe he said that, but it is one of the few things that causes him to stop thinking rationally), he just can’t get into the role of the story he came up with. It’s just not him, and probably never will be.

But he can act, pretend that it’s him, and with Minako’s help he’s able to get closer to how he feels and is able to pull it off. He can hide it, pretend like he understands it, play the role that he feels most comfortable with, and is rewarded with Victor staying to be his coach.

It doesn’t mean that Victor’s laid off with the affection, heck if anything he’s gotten more affectionate since Yuri left. It starts to become too much and he starts avoiding him if just to keep himself in check. That day at the beach, he opens up a bit about it, but not the full truth, but just enough that he hopes Victor will understand.

He seems to get it, the affection is still there, but it’s less and enough for him to manage. Maybe if things continue like this, it’ll all be okay.

Months later, Yuuri still hasn’t told him, even now that they’re in a relationship.

They haven’t had a chance to really talk about it, after the kiss in China all they had done was sleep, just sleep with each other due to Yuuri’s exhaustion from the day’s events. Even when they came back, they’d gone right back to training and while Yuuri’s gotten used to the hand holding and hugs, he’s scared to death if thing might come to anything more.

It all comes to a head one night after Rostelecom.

They’d started out sitting on Yuuri’s bed, talking and hold hands until Victor had placed his hand on Yuuri’s cheek, turn his head to face his and kissed him. Yuuri’s surprised a bit by it, but returns the kiss regardless and it’s when Victor’s got him pinned to the bed that things start to go off the rails. There’s a tongue prodding at his lips, which he lets in, a hand running down his sides and when it starts going towards his thighs does Yuuri jerk his head to the side breaking the kiss and trying to keep his breathing under control. Deep breaths, he tells himself, trying not to panic but it’s hard not to, he can’t break down like this, not in front of Victor.

“Yuuri?” There’s a concern in his voice that makes Yuuri just want to tell him to leave him alone so he can deal with this, but he’ll want to know what this is about. So he tries to get his breathing back to normal, mumbling out an “I’m fine” once he can feel like he can talk without gasping for breath.

Victor helps him sit up, giving his hand a soft squeeze, the other hand resting on his back. “Breath Yuuri, breath,” he says, “It’s okay, everything’s fine.”

Yuuri nods, counts in his head as he breaths, in out in out, and once he can breathing normally again he looks at Victor, who has a look of confusion and concern across his face.

“Are you okay?” he asks and Yuuri nods.

“Y-Yeah I just, freaked out there for a bit.” he replies, squeezes Victor’s hand back. “I’m fine, sorry for making you worry.”

“Yuuri...Did I do something wrong?”

“What? No, no you didn’t it’s just…” he sighs, he probably should have told Victor this from the start.

“It’s just that...I’m asexual so…” he trails off and looks off to the side, not trusting himself to meet Victor’s eyes right now.

“So it was too much for you right?” He looks back over at Victor, a look of understanding on his face.

“Yeah. I probably should have told you sooner but there was never a good time for it…” He pauses and takes a breath before continuing. “I’m fine with everything we’ve done up till now but that was...just too much. I can handle the hand holding, hugs and the like but the touching is...just a bit too much.” Victor bring his hand to Yuuri’s check to bring their foreheads to rest against each other, a small smile on his face.

“It’s okay Yuuri, I probably should have asked beforehand. We’ll go at your pace, and if it becomes too much we’ll stop. I don’t want to overwhelm you. Alright?”

Yuuri nods, a smile on his face as he moves to wrap his arms around Victor and rest his head on his shoulder, and action that Victor mirrors. It was okay, they were okay and everything was going to be fine. They’d figure this out together, and even if they never did anything more than what they had done already, that would be fine with him.

VICTUURI FICRECS

last updated: 2017-01-30

I’ve read a SHITTON so here we go,,, hope u like it

Will probably be updated semi-regularly as I continue to delve into the ao3 tag.

MULTI-CHAPTER

Maelstrom

by feelslikefire, 43682, time-loop!au

“Victor Nikiforov is poised to win gold in his fifth consecutive Grand Prix Final. He has the world at his feet, is unparalleled in the sport--right up until a snowstorm blows into Sochi, and he finds himself repeating the same day over and over and over. He stumbles over Yuuri Katsuki, and everything changes.”

I absolutely adore this one. There is a quiet and mature tone to it (even though it’s started off by a weird witch lecturing Victor). And the decriptions are so good it felt as though I was there with them. I read the first paragraph and I knew that this was going to be good.

Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart Aches

by Reiya : wip, 126945 , rivals!au

“Hatred and love are two sides of the same coin and even though everything changes, some things are still meant to be.”

Already a fandom classic, this is a monster of a fic that really handles it’s characters with love. Nothing feels unmotivated and the descriptions are so good it’s crazy. The rivalry is handled beautifully and it exceeded my expectations by a large margin. Emotions done right and very engaging(!). Worth a long and rewarding read.

Constellations (Things You Left Unsaid)

by DasWarSchonKaputt : wip, 22346, role-reversal!au, college!au

“What is Katsuki Yuuri’s greatest asset when competing? If you ask the media, they’ll tell you it’s his flair for artistry, something that shines through in his earnest, winning performances. If you ask Yuuri, he’ll tell you that it’s his coach, Celestino, and the answer will sound as fake as it is.

The truth, though, is something that Yuuri has always known. He wouldn’t be half the skater he is without his prescription for anti-anxiety medication.”

Victor as a 18-year old soon-to-be senior debutant and a master of seduction is right up my lane. Add the long hair and the unwillingness to conform to gender norms and you have perfection. Loving the articles in this fic and use of chats and social media. Cozy college au.

Are you a library book? Because I can’t stop checking you out.

by AriWrote : wip, 8183, bookstore!au

“Yuuri works at his family’s bookstore. Viktor is his favorite author. Somehow he doesn’t realize the cute stranger making eyes at in him in the self-help book section is his idol. Yuri just really wants a break.”

Just as cute and light-hearted as it seems. Phichit is an absolute darling in this and I’ve fallen so hard for Yuuri as a bookworm. Reading this was like the fic equivalent to sipping a pina colada at the beach. Like taking a vacation. Truly lovely.

SkateSquad™ groupchat

by stxmph : wip, 47122 , au

“pikachit added katsukidon, vitya, RussianTiger, Leo♫, and (gay)uanghong to the chat.

pikachit renamed the conversation “ SkateSquad™ ” (groupchat log of the skate squad)”

This fic is (almost) entirely in the style of a groupchat. It’s messy, the author is overly self indulgent and it’s often kind of inconsistent but at times so brilliantly funny it makes the flaws pale in comparison. I’ve been up laughing late at night just because I couldn’t stop reading.

I’ll Give You My Heart

by Aliis : wip, 14009, soulmate!au

“In a world where people’s hearts are displayed on their chests, broadcasting to everyone if you’re looking for your other half or you’ve found them, Victor Nikiforov was a bit of a rock star– he’s twenty seven years old and his heart is still perfectly whole.”

In a fragmented and poetic way this story is heartaching. Heartbreaking even. It follows the canon storyline somewhat (Victor is Yuuris coach etc) within this very interesting take on soulmates. One of the first fics I subscribed to on aou, which says something, doesn’t it? Over all wonderful and it’s definitely one of my favourites.

when the ice melts in the snow (that's when you'll love me)

by lilithiumwords : wip, 47179, demon!au

“Katsuki Yuuri is the worst incubus in the Underworld. Viktor Nikiforov is his human target.”

Yuuri is a demi-sexual sex demon and have never really felt desire until he gets assigned the human (or is he...) Viktor. (But don’t expect too much explicit sex. We’re seven chapters in and they still haven’t had sex yet). It works. Really well, actually. So well I stayed up way to late because I felt I needed more. My headcanon is that Yuuri is somewhere on the ace scale and I really enjoy when I find someone with the same idea?

(offer me) that Deathless Death

by melonbug : wip, 15580, curse!au

“It was the curse he and his family were fated to: Death would come for him the moment he turned eighteen, and he could only hope the flimsy wards passed down through the generations would protect him. But Death always won eventually, Death would snatch him up as he had all of his ancestors.

But somehow he wasn't what Yuuri had expected. He was a constant presence in his life, barely there. A vigilant spectator to his burgeoning skating career, a gray haired man with a soft expression who found him again and again, waiting for him to let his guard down, but becoming something more, over time.

"Don't be careless," his sister told him, but they were all careless, in the end.”

In which Yuuri learns to live with Death over his shoulder. I love the premise and its wonderfully executed. It feels ancient it feels real and the descriptions is sometimes so wellwritten its absolutely crazy.

Strawberry Bubblegum

by rightofpostponement : wip, 20455, soulmate!au, (semi)canon compliant

“Smile, skate, win. Wash, rinse, repeat. It grew so mundane, after a while. Years and years of being at the top inevitably soured the view, no matter how beautiful. Victor was tired; tired of trying to surprise people, tired of living without love, and tired of making history without anyone to share it with. It takes one night, one dance, and 16 flutes of champagne for Victor's life to be flipped on its head.”

Cuties! Lovelies! This is basically a collection of sweet, amazing, wonderful romcom cliches. They have a playful pillowfight (that grows intense u kno what i mean), Hiroko embarrases Yuuri with baby pictures. Heck, they even go go disney world! Toothrotting.

Looking for Courage

by icterine : 17035, soulmate!au, college!au

“Victor’s soul rejoices with their meeting. A fleeting attempt to steady a drunken stranger sets his heart afire. It’s all he’s ever dared to wish for. (Yuuri meets his soulmate and forgets.)”

Just as the author says, “there can never be too many soulmate aus…”. Especially if they’re all as well written as this one. The characterization in this is absolutely wonderful. The clueless Yuuri, the hopeless romantic Victor. The pacing is great and I love love love Chris (and Phichit) in this one!

a great desire to love

by lily_winterwood, 21724, body swap!au

“For some strange, inexplicable, fantastic reason, Yuuri Katsuki and Viktor Nikiforov are trading places.

Kimi no Na wa AU.”

I went into this fic having no idea what kimi no na wa even was and boy am I glad I did. I finished this in record time. Intriguing, exciting, action-packed.

The Courtesan

by haganenoheichou : wip, 25,448, courtesan!au, dystopia!au

“Viktor is the most popular Courtesan in Hasetsu House. He is beautiful, he is graceful, he is everything Yuuri has always wanted to be. Except Yuuri is an Untouchable virgin at the age of twenty-three and a universe-class klutz. What happens when Viktor takes an interest?”

This authors worldbuilding is really freaking cool! Some influences from things like ‘Memoirs of a Geisha’ mixed with a dystopian future such as ‘the Hunger Games’ (the civilians clothing and luxiurious customs) with a sci-fi setting. If you, like me, are a sucker for stuff like this (starcrossed lovers with talk of galaxies) it’s pretty awesome.

ONE SHOTS

i have my body (and you have yours)

by astoryaboutwar : 8147, soulmate!au

“Yuuri overflows with the weight of things that have been said, trembles with what remains.Their shared zeroes flicker in time, the early morning light muting the red glow to faint numbers. In the amber dawn, an idol is only just a man.

(Or: the Soulmate Timers AU where things happen out of order, secrets are kept, revelations are had, and they arrive where they need to be in the end.)”

I remember being absolutely smitten when I first read this and I still see why I described it as “words strung together to create a fucking symphony”. It’s poetic, heartbreaking, beautiful.

the lounge

by fan_nerd :13453, therapy!au

“Dr. Yuuri Katsuki is a psychiatric therapist in Detroit who specializes in alcoholism. The last person he expects to see in his chair is retired figure skater Victor Nikiforov, whom he used to idolize.

Victor is a very different man than the one who’d been subject to the constant flashes of cameras in the prime of his life. He is broken, and so terribly human.

But then, so is Yuuri.”

Strange concept maybe but executed skillfully. Cute story about two lost, middleaged, men who find eachother, Cameo by my favourite mom Yuuko as a sweet tea-drinking 40-year old.

cover story

by fan_nerd : 8210, roommates!au

“Yuuri stares down at the person standing in the doorway. The stranger hisses, “Who do you think you are, anyways?”

Quickly, before he can really think about it, Yuuri responds, “I’m Victor’s boyfriend.”

It’s a lie, but the words feel good in his mouth, and for some reason, he doesn’t want to take them back.”

Yuuri is a workaholic that needs a place to stay. Victor is the playboy looking for a roommate. The relationship is painfully gradual in this but when they do get together, oh, is it sweet.

leave the banner there

by sixpences : 2904, canon compliant

“"Victor has a crush- a full-blown, goofy-daydreaming, struggling-to-sleep-at-night crush.“

Victor pines, entertains his rinkmates, and wonders what the heck to do with himself.”

Short and sweet read. Pining Victor and fun russian rinkmates. I think I really needed Victors pov post-banquet and this helped me fill the gaps.

Taking flight

Part 1 of 3 of my gift exchange gift for @tsukyamgiftexchange for @enterprisecaptainoikawa, who requested “aromantic/asexual spectrum tsukkiyama, punk tsukkiyama, band au, ice skating/yuri on ice au ahhh, professor/bibliophile au, tsukkiyama as best friends, really anything tbh bless”! I didn’t know if She meant band au as in orchestra or singing/etc. band, so if not there’s also an orchestra! Here’s the Band au:

People always ask Tadashi about how the band stays together; he wonders why they only ask him (and he knows that they only ask him). Sure, Tsukishima and Kageyama are scary and Shouyou is always hopping from one place to another, too busy to sit down, but…Tadashi’s nothing special. He’s plain. Besides– Tadashi hasn’t been around long enough to know himself.

Tsukishima and Kageyama are constantly bickering; if it’s not Tsukishima and Kageyama, it’s Tsukishima and Hinata, or Kageyama and Hinata. The three are an odd group, and no matter how many times Tadashi plays peacekeeper, they still argue.

Looking back, Tadashi wonders how much trouble he’s really gotten himself into by joining Take Flight.

“Oi. Are you even paying attention?”

Tadashi’s eyes fall nervously on Kageyama, only to find the dark haired bassist wasn’t even talking to him but instead a dazed-looking Shouyou.

“You’ve missed your cue like ten times. I’m getting tired of playing the same riff over and over again. Get your head straight!”

Tsukishima, pianist, snickers at this, and Kageyama and Hinata glare at him.

“What’re you laughing at?!” Hinata all but yells into his mic, causing Tadashi to cringe and wave apologetically to the poor man in the sound booth.

“Nothing, nothing. It’s just that, Kageyama said to get your head straight, but I’m ninety percent sure that he’s the only straight one here.”

Cheeks tinging red, Tadashi decides to break it up before the yelling inevitably starts.

“Guys, we really should get out work done. Us taking forever to record this track isn’t just affecting us…” Tadashi nods to the man in the booth, and the group of people at the editing table behind him. “Shouyou, I’ll nod to you when you need to come in. I should have before, I’m sorry.”

“Oh, Yama-chan, you’re the best!” Shouyou flings himself at Tadashi, causing him to tumble and almost drop his electric guitar. “Let’s get to work!”

Recording is done soon enough, to Tadashi’s guilty delight, and he finds himself walking home from the studio where they’re recording their ep, Tsukishima Kei next to him. One hand is warm in his pocket and the other freezes in the cold of the winter weather; his guitar case dangles between popsicle fingers, and he finds his pace is slower than normal, despite the voice in the back of his head telling him to get home faster. Tsukishima, trailing behind him, listens to music quietly, and Tadashi thinks about how he met the pianist and got mixed in with all of this band stuff.

“Thank you all, uh– have a great night! I love you guys, you’re the best!”

People clap, and Tadashi – flushed pink – makes his way back behind the counter as Just a little Suga, the local coffee shop he works at. Open mic night has always been his favorite night. Sugawara, his manager, smiles at him, and hands him his apron. He’s just tying it around his waist when a redhead bounds up to him, pulling a (devastatingly beautiful) blond by the wrist.

“Hey! Freckles! Who just sang up there! We’re in a band!”

“A- Ah, really?..” Tadashi furrows his brows, not knowing how that applies to him. “Uh…–”

“We want you to join it! I need a backup singer-slash-someone to duet with! And your voice is soooo pretty!” The redhead is so loud, every eye in the cafe is on him now, and it’s somehow more terrifying than singing in front of them.

Not to mention the blond with him is so beautiful and he looks so uninterested and god, Tadashi is weak–

“Ok.”

“Great! Here’s my number, I’ll text you!”

Frick.

That was a year ago.

“Would you like to hang out, Tsukki?..” It’s a long shot– Tsukishima’s always been closed off. During rehearsals, Tsukishima grew close to Tadashi, but even then, they weren’t the best.

“Ah. You still want to, after that comment outing you to the entire band and crew?”

“Huh? Oh. I’m pretty open with my sexuality, so I don’t mind. Besides, I know you can’t go without making a joke at Tobio-kun’s expense.” Tadashi smiles, and shifts his guitar case, cringing when his cold fingers crack and stretch. He’s smiling at Tsukishima’s grunt in response when something suddenly hits him. “…Wait. You said Tobio was ‘the only straight one’ in the band…I didn’t know you weren’t straight…”

“Ah. I suppose you weren’t there when I came out…” Tsukishima rubs his neck, clearly nervous, and the flustered expression on his face is something new to Tadashi. “I’m, uh… Well, I’m uh– asexual. I don’t–”

“–feel sexual attraction. I know, silly. I’m on the spectrum.”

“Oh.” Tsukishima frowns. “I– I thought you…”

“I’m demi.”

“Ah. I see.”

“So,” Tadashi raises his voice slightly to change the topic. “How about it? Hang out?”

Tsukishima nods, slowly, and smiles softly. “…Sure. Alright.”

Tadashi grins. “Great!”

Hanging out with Tsukishima is always fun. The two usually just sit around in one of their apartments together and watch Netflix, maybe drink, but it always makes Tadashi happy. Today is Tadashi’s turn to bring Tsukishima to his apartment, and when he unlocks his front door, he’s lucky his roommate is out. Noya is sweet, but he…overwhelms Tsukishima.

Setting his guitar case down to slide off his coat, Tadashi shudders at the change of temperature. The hand that was gripping his guitar case burns with heat, and Tadashi mentally curses himself for not wearing gloves when he knew it was cold out today.

“Do you want a drink? I think I have some beer in the fridge.”

“No, not tonight.” Tsukishima straightens from sliding off his own shoes and Tadashi is suddenly reminded of how tall the blond is. “Can we make coffee, though? I’m freezing.”

“So the human heater is cold? It must be cold,” Tadashi chuckles at Tsukishima’s grumble in response; he’s always joked about Tsukishima being the human equivalent of a volcano. “I’ll make coffee, but Noya-san probably used the last of the creamer, with his habits.”

“Habits,” Tsukishima scoffs. “He drinks creamer with a dash of coffee. Literally. I’ve seen him make it.”

“Try living with him!” Tadashi laughs, lifts his guitar up once more to drop it in the living room where the majority of his and Noya’s instruments and equipment lay. He leads Tsukishima to the kitchen, and smiles softly when Tsukishima plops down on a chair in the dining room with a heavy sigh.

Tadashi shifts the coffee maker into the ‘on’ position and starts making the coffee; he notices for the first time how lucky he is that Tsukishima takes his coffee the same way as he does. Black (Tsukishima jokes that he likes it as dark as his soul) coffee has always been the best to him. Besides– if they were to use all of the sugar and creamer, Noya would be a walking zombie if they did.

“How’s your mom?”

“Good,” Tadashi smiles at Tsukishima as he settles down as well to wait for the coffee. “She just got out of the hospital last week, I think she’ll be back to normal in a few days.”

“That’s good. Any changes in her condition?”

Tadashi can tell the old med-school student in Tsukishima is interested, but he can also tell Tsukishima is genuinely concerned. His heart warms.

“The tumor is shrinking, but not by much…the pneumonia really set her healing process back a bit.”

“I see…” Tsukishima hums. “Well, I’ve only known her for a while, but she’s strong. She’ll get better.”

“Yeah.”

The coffee maker beeps signalling it’s finished making the coffee, and Tadashi jumps up, grabbing mugs and pouring their coffee. Tsukishima takes his thankfully, and immediately downs half of it. Tadashi just watches, smiling, as he takes a sip of his own. One thing he’s never understood about Tsukishima was how he could drink his coffee straight out of the coffee maker, boiling hot.

“How are Akiteru and Saeko?”

“Alright. I think Aki-nii is more nervous for the wedding than Saeko, when usually it’s the bride.”

Tadashi chuckles, and shakes his head. “I’ve gotten an invitation already, so at least he’s not paralyzed with nerves…”

“You have?” Tsukishima raises an eyebrow. “He knows your address?”

“A- Ah, he, uh…added me on Facebook back when we first met?..And we got talking, and I guess…He got my address somehow?..” Tadashi doesn’t want to question it– he’s just happy he got an invitation in the first place. “I don’t know…”

“Well, are you going, then?”

“Yeah, of course! I mean, I’ve never personally met Akiteru-kun, but I still want to congratulate him on his marriage!”

Kei’s cheeks tinge pink for some reason, and Tadashi is reminded of how aesthetically pleasing the blond is; with his long limbs, golden eyes, and the soft halo of yellow curls on his head. Tadashi would like to see him with winged eyeliner and maybe a nice pair of high waisted pants. Tsukishima has nice hips, and with his long legs…Tadashi would have to place a special order….

“Oi. You listening?”

“Huh? Oh, sorry, Tsukki! Just thinking! What?” Tadashi’s own cheeks heat up, and he bites his lip.

“I asked if you would like to be my plus one. I know you have your own invitation, but I don’t want my family asking if I’m dating…If I have a plus one, then they’ll assume I am. Either way, you’re going to the wedding, so I figured…”

“Sure! I’d love to!” Tadashi interrupts before Tsukishima can talk himself out of the invitation. “But aren’t you the best man?”

“Ah, Saeko doesn’t want to stick to tradition at their wedding, so Akiteru will have a best woman, and Saeko will have a bridesman. It’s…odd, but refreshing. I’m just glad I won’t be in the wedding.” Tsukishima looks happy, talking about the wedding.. Tadashi can see he really doesn’t care he wasn’t included in the wedding party. “Besides. Aki-nii says my resting bitch face would scare the poor people who made their way out to see the wedding.”

Tadashi can’t help it. He doesn’t want to, because he doesn’t want to make Tsukishima upset, but he laughs. Hard. So hard, in fact, tears spring in his eyes and he’s doubling over the table before he can stop himself. When he straightens up he expects to see Tsukishima’s pace pulled into a frown, but to his utter surprise, there’s a soft smile on the blond’s lips.

“He’s right, isn’t he?” Tsukishima says, chuckling to himself, and Tadashi watches him with wide eyes. Tsukishima Kei is smiling and laughing at his own expense.

A few more coffees later, Tadashi and Tsukishima are on the couch in the living room, Tsukishima falling asleep on Tadashi’s shoulder. A documentary plays in the background, but Tadashi is too focused on the light illuminating Tsukishima’s features. Looking at his friend, he can’t help but think how lucky he got in life.

He’s really starting to take flight; he’s glad Tsukishima is there to fly with him.
