“Must I go bound while you go free? Must I love a man who doesn’t love me? Must I be born with so little art as to love a man who'll break my heart?”

Viktor pauses halfway down the stairs. The sea churns below him, the tide coming in rapidly against the shore, swallowing almost every strip of sand on the beach below. He rolls up his trousers, grits his teeth, and continues.

This is a beautifully written fic, following the story of Victor as a best-selling author who moves to a small town in Scotland looking for inspiration and finds so much more instead. 

“Wow,” Victor said when Yuuri caught up with him again. “You’re amazing.” And when Yuuri looked like he was going to protest, Victor shook his head appreciatively and said, “You really are.”

Yuuri’s lips parted in surprise, then broke into a small, gentle smile and Victor felt the air being sucked right out of him. He wanted to see Yuuri smile like that forever.

But more than that, he wanted to be the reason for Yuuri’s smile.

Oh, God, he thought. Get a grip.

Victor can feel Yuuri growing warmer against his palm, but still he says, "I love you."

"Again."

"I love you."

"Again."

Yuuri looks a little amused this time by Victor's insistence. "Victor, I lov- mmph!"

“What’s your name?”

The man’s eyes widened for a moment, gaze flitting from the hand that was grasped around his arm to the blue eyes of the Russian Prince. Viktor tried his best to look as pleading as possible as he tried not to drown in the dark brown pools that was the man’s eyes, brown eyes that were laced with panic.

“U-Uh…” A pretty little blush dusted this man’s face. “I don’t have a name.”

What would happen if Viktor, future leader of Russia, falls for a boy he meets at the rink, when he’s supposed to be wed to the mysterious Royal prince in Japan? Drama, and fluff.

Reading this fic awakened something within me. My urge to fling myself into the sun maybe. 

“Simple attraction has gained weight and momentum and it's plummeting down with frightening speed, drawn by a gravity that Yuuri has never known, never touched nor seen nor imagined. It comes without warning: sunshine slanting through a film of dust, pollen caught in his fingertips right before the collision. By the time he realises, it is far too late. It's something making a home in his heart before he even registers it, simultaneously destroying and rebuilding him in the midst of his own confusion, and Yuuri finds he cannot mind it, cannot hate something so intrinsically beautiful when even the outline of footprints over his heart is illuminated by psychedelic colour. It's faint warmth trapped between two palms, smoothed over two decades of grisaille worn into a montage of every reason why he should not open his heart. The light redirects itself, straightens its aim and extracts the penumbra from behind Yuuri's indecision.

Surely, it's the easiest and most naturally he’s ever fallen for another person, if not the very first time. Even the impossibility of their having a romantic relationship cannot deter the happiness that this lends him, and Yuuri should be afraid - but he’s not. Anything. He will take anything if it’s with Viktor.“

“Yuuri always kisses him like he can’t quite believe this is happening; sometimes shy, sometimes heated and demanding, but always with this sense of quiet amazement.  Victor lets it happen with a similar kind of disbelief, that after all these months since December and the banquet he still hasn’t stopped falling in love with Yuuri Katsuki, that there doesn’t seem to be any bottom for him to hit and he’ll just continue falling forever.”
