Viktor and Chris texting (chp. 1)

You can have everything… by shysweetthing (AO3) Yuri!!! On Ice – Teen – Katsuki Yuuri/Viktor Nikiforov #Alternate Universe #Fluff and Angst #Humor #canon Vicchan death #Dog based emotions #Victor is Extra

AU. Before the Grand Prix Final starts in Sochi, Yuuri finds Victor’s phone. He returns it--and hijinks and heavy flirtation ensue.

(Just about everything that happens at the Sochi GPF happens here, so if something that happens there might bother you, check the tags?)

Now with bonus epilogue!

~~~

Yuuri hated looking at pictures of himself. His hair had started sticking up again. And he had that horrible star-struck smile on his face. Plus, he was blushing, and blushing always made him look so young.

“Aaaaaah.” Yuuri winced. “I look so…”

Victor winked at him. “Cute!”

Before Yuuri could protest, Victor dropped the photo into Instagram and started typing a caption.

My champion! I thought I lost my phone this morning, but look who returned it? Our very own…

Yuuri watched as Victor’s agile thumbs (so agile, and no, he was not going to think about what else Victor could do with them) stopped moving. That fan-struck part of him that had been screaming mentally in the back of his mind came to a slow halt.

Pairing(s): Katsuki Yuuri/Viktor Nikiforov

Victor learns Japanese while in Hasetsu. He doesn't tell Yuuri, and things get dicey when he overhears Yuuri and Mari talking about him in Japanese. Repeatedly.

(The subtitle of this fic should be: Victor Nikiforov really needs a hug. Luckily, he gets one. Eventually.)

~~~

“No,” Victor says, skating up to Yuuri on the ice, “you have to push all the way from here, or you’ll never get the height you need for that axel.” He sets his hand on Yuuri’s ass, tracing the muscle group he’s referring to. “Not here.” He taps Yuuri’s thigh. He doesn’t know the words for the muscles in English, only knows how to show him.

Bottle Me Your Smile by Ncj700 In a tiny village on the edge of the kingdom, Yuuri Katsuki – common as mud Pharmakeia owner – embarks on a goal to achieve a childhood goal. With the help of the world’s greatest magical, and a missing potion ingridient, he will achieve it. Apothecary AU for @Banacotta/Antleers

“Be My Sex Coach, Victor!” by lucyamui Yuuri Katsuki has always been his own worst critic, and a series of unfortunate short-lived relationships has him convinced that he flubs things more in the bedroom than out on the ice. So, of course it would turn out that the ridiculously charming Russian he's matched with online is a pornstar. But perhaps, a 'professional opinion' is exactly what Yuuri needs...

I see the universe in your eyes by fangirlandiknowit Before Yuuri realizes what’s happening, he’s been kissed by Viktor Nikiforov. It’s a small kiss, but Viktor’s lips are soft and dry, brushing over his slow enough that he can feel the tingle of it for minutes afterwards. It was a kiss, and- If Yuuri wins, he can ask for another. Maybe more than one, even. (Maybe he’ll ask for as many kisses as there are stars in the universe.)

Victor Effing Nikiforov by shysweetthing AU in which Yuuri still doesn’t remember the banquet, somehow doesn’t blow Japanese Nationals, runs into Victor at the World Championships, and has absolutely no idea why his idol is suddenly friendly and incredibly handsy. Does Yuuri care about his reasons? No. It’s Victor Effing Nikiforov. Basically this is an excuse for total fluff. And porn. And shit-talking with bonus smut. (Edited for accuracy.) Happy birthday, Victor. ~~ Victor turned back to him, supernova smile in place once more. “I really, really like you. Promise you’ll still dance with me at the banquet if you take gold this time around.” Yuuri stared at the man. He looked at their entwined hands—he hadn’t wanted to pull away—and their thighs, pressed together despite there being plenty of room in the backseat of the cab. That scent of Victor’s cologne—just a dab, lightly applied somewhere on his neck—swirled around him. This was too real to be a dream, too physical for him to have imagined it. “I’m sorry,” Yuuri said slowly. “But…have we talked before?”

by shysweetthing

Summary:(M) “How can you tell me to return to the ice while saying you’re retiring?” As Victor spoke, his anger flared into something just a little darker. Something just a little possessive, and Yuuri was usually the possessive one between them. Victor found himself closing the distance between them, grabbing hold of Yuuri’s leg. Yuuri shrank back—a centimeter—but Victor followed. Their noses brushed. Their lips were so close that when Victor spoke, it was almost a kiss.

 I thought it would be fun to answer these ^-^

1.how did you find out about the show

This one is a little fuzzy but I’m pretty sure my best friend @evangelinedares showed me the trailer, I’d also been very into sports anime for a while

2.favorite episode and why

Everyone says episode 10 and I’d have to agree with the majority. Not only because of the amazing reveal of the banquet incident (completely changing the narrative altogether) the start of the episode is in Viktor’s pov which was very interesting because up until then (whiles he’s an amazingly well written character) he’s very hard to read so it was nice to here his inner thoughts about what was happening around him... and the “sleeping beauty” comment.

3.favorite character and why

This one was difficult as Yuuri and Phichit were my favorite characters instantly and they hold a special place for me. I’d have to say Yuuri Katsuki. Answering why will be hard hopefully it won’t get too long XD I just love how realistic his character is. I love how un-protag he is. The same archetype of loud, bumbling, loveable anime guy™  has been done to death. I also love that throughout the show we see so many sides of him, one surprise after another. The fact that from the first episode alone he mislead me to believe he wasn’t a big deal, that he wasn’t that good. Third episode in I realize “hey this guy competed in the Grand Prix?? and obviously seems like an important person in his town.” The way he fools you, shrinking his accomplishments is refreshing as a main character and makes him very relate able. I also think he represented how anxiety affects people’s life in a pretty accurate way.... anddd I was in love with his design from the start. Dark hair and glasses are my thing.   

4.least favorite character and why

I don’t think I can really answer this? I like them all in their own ways, but funny story I did not like Yuri Plisetsky at all in like the first 5 minutes he was properly introduced (sorry @evangelinedares XD) I thought, “man, what is this guy’s problem?” but he definitely grew on me once I understood his character.

5. favorite rare pair 

Mila and Sara. We don’t see much of them together (people ship them after seeing like one frame of them together.) I want to see them having a fun friendship (they would definitely be a cute couple though.)

6. favorite costume(s)

The eros costume really appeals to my darker aesthetic so naturally I fell for that one.

7. favorite short program

Yuuri Katsuki, On Love: Eros

8. favorite free skate

Yuri Plisetsky, Allegro Appassionato in B minor

9. favorite location

The onsen in Hasetsu (when is was snowing)

10. favorite victuuri moment

Two moments, Episode 7: Parking garage argument and Yuuri dropping his tissue, poking Viktor’s head and skating with a smile.

11. favorite line of dialogue

"Just have more faith than I do that I'll win..." jesus, this scene hit me hard, this part of the quote in particular really struck a chord with me. I understood it as, “I’m not very confident in myself but I can make up for it with you having confidence in me.” it’s a very vulnerable thing to say/admit.

12. favorite meta

it would take forever to find the post XD

13. best character development arc

Obvious answer would be Yuuri Katsuki because his changes are again very obvious throughout, I mean I argue that (It could be canon according to Kubo I have to find where I read it) Yuuri Katsuki did not change drastically, I feel like he just realized what was always in him, he’s always been talented, he’s always had confidence buried inside, he realizes people care about him, he’s always been good at putting himself back together. So, I would have to say my favorite arc is Yuri Plisetsky (funny because originally he was my least favorite character.) his evolution was beautiful to watch and I love how all the changes weren’t positive, yes he reached his full potential and won the Grand prix but we also see him say that halfway through his program he “blacked out” which is really not a good thing. I want to see who he grows into.

 14. who would you want to be rink mates with

Phichit <3

 15. who would you want to get turnt with

Chris?

 16. who would you want to be your coach

Minako Okukawa

17. which character are you most like

This one is tricky as I see myself in both Yuuri and Viktor, I go on and on about how much I love Yuuri but between the two I think I’m the most like Viktor. Most people who know me wouldn’t see it as I’m often described as “chill” by most people who know me and Viktor obviously has a fairly cheery disposition (when he’s with Yuuri). That’s one thing right there. I have one person in my life that gets to know other sides of me, it’s often said in canon “only Yuuri sees this cute side of Viktor.” Being lost when someone tells me they just want me to “be myself.” Feeling like I have to put on different personas to please different people. Feeling isolated/unsatisfied (indifferent) when people marvel at my achievements, losing interest in things you once loved. (common symptom of depression but lets not get too deep! moving on XD)

18. who do you think should have won the gpf 

Despite loving the fuck out of Yuuri Katsuki, I feel the results aligned perfectly with everyone’s arc. I read a wonderful meta that explained how Yuuri winning silver drove home the theme of how Yuuri learns about love. In the beginning Yuuri places all his self worth on winning gold and when he doesn’t he beats himself up hard. It’s a bit of a parallel to how the series stars, Yuuri failing the gpf so badly that he wants to retire and by the end making the podium (still not getting the gold he wants) but is stronger to keep going. It seems his self esteem went up a little by the end of the show.

19. what are you expecting/hoping will be in the movie

mannnn at this point I don’t ask for much I’ll gladly watch them mow a lawn for 2 hours but jokes aside I want to know Yuuri’s past how he grew up and same for viktor. VIKTOR’S FUCKING PAST, FAMILY, EDUCATION, ANYTHING THAT MAN IS SO MYSTERIOUS.

20. headcanon for what yuuri and Phichit majored in in university

Honestly never gave this much thought? Yuuri in dance, Phichit in some type of photography

21. headcanon for victor’s level of education

Firstly I’d like to say that I headcanon Viktor as being very intelligent. I don’t think he went to any kind of college/university. There are a lot of metas I’ve seen to back up that Viktor is a bookworm and I agree wholeheartedly. I also have an angsty headcanon that when he was young (like teens) he was shut down anytime he tried to talk about books, science (ect.) and was told that people just want him to be pretty and skate so he adopted this ditsy persona that people mistake for him being air headed. It bugs me when I read fics of people portraying him as this airhead that can’t cook, the trope-y hot dumb guy XD ugh it just bothers me.

22. favorite katsuki

If I’m bein honest, I’ve been lovin on Yuuri this whole post XD I fucking love Mari Katsuki, she doesn’t get enough love. She’s such a mood; smoking, deadpan, lowkey alternative older sister™

23. favorite russian skater

Viktor <3

24. headcanon for how vicchan died

I read a really amazing fic where they went to detail how Mari accidentally let go of the leash while walking Vicchan and he was hit by a car indirectly making it her fault. It adds a bit more depth to her cool persona she has.

25. what’s your eros

thicc girls with glasses and pixie cuts.

26. what’s your agape

@evangelinedares <3

27. were you already a fan of figure skating before watching the show (if not, have you become a fan now because of the show)

My Nana who passed a while ago would always watch it when I was young and I would watch with her and was a longtime fan (I was a big fan of Hanyu Yuzuru and Yulia Lipniskaya). Two years prior to the release of yoi I remember thinking “man I wish there was an anime about figure skating” and my prayers were answered XD 

28. do you own any merchandise (share pics!!)

29.favorite official yoi event so far (and share if you’ve been to any)

Didn’t attended but watched the Chihoko drama online it was glorious.

(Oh my god this definitely definitely happened tho.)

“This is my Slytherin tendencies coming through,” Victor says, trying and failing to hide the fact that he’s pouting like a small child.

Yuuri’s eyebrow climbs nearly all the way up to his hairline. “Your what now?”

“I’m a competitive person,” Victor sighs, with the gravitas of admitting that he dog-ears borrowed books or prefers instant coffee. “I can’t help it, Yuuri. I want to win.”

Yuuri bites his bottom lip. “I mean, I could—”

“—don’t you dare go easy on me,” Victor interrupts with a snarl. “I will divorce you.”

They stare each other down for exactly ninety-three seconds before Yuuri sighs. “Okay, Victor. All right. New game. Now, the goal is to shoot anyone who’s not me. Do not, under any circumstances, shoot at my character. Shoot at literally anyone else.”

Victor nods, bouncing on the couch ever so slightly, demented sparkle in his eye. “Let’s do this.”

~

“Yuuri!!”

Yuuri sits straight up in bed to find his husband gone. “Is the dog okay?!”

Victor goes slack-jawed. “What? Yes!! I beat Borderlands 2!”

Yuuri rubs his eyes. “At...” he checks his watch. “Three in the morning. Nine months after we first played it?”

Victor beams. “Yes.” His eyes say are you proud of me? Please be proud. I tried so hard.
