if he wants to win gold, he will have to work with him.

it's a cruel fact, an unsavory answer drilled into him by his own logic. he knows that huening kai is talented, their rivalry from years past still bringing fresh rage into his veins. years and years of competing for the same titles still stoked the flames of hate even after all this time. but looking at him now, seeing how far that talent has fallen, makes his stomach churn.

status: ongoing.

ship: tyunning.

genre: angst, enemies to lovers, figure skating au, eventual smut.

tags: implied/referenced childhood abuse, internalized homophobia, figure skating inaccuracies, hatred, self-loathing, kang taehyun is comically bad at feelings, cocky huening kai, eventual smut. we get there when we get there idk.
