No way, it couldn’t be… could it?

It was, it had to be and he couldn’t believe it. Yuuri had given up on the idea of finding someone, anyone he knew in this strange city but just up ahead was the man he’d recognise anywhere. His idol, his coach, his… friend? By some miracle, Viktor Nikiforov was here in this bizarre place and Yuuri suddenly didn’t feel so alone, lost and confused. He’d be okay if he was with Viktor, right? He had to be.

He began to move, eyes locked firmly on the taller of the two, his voice calling out before he even realised.

“Viktor? Viktor!”

He had to get his attention, he had to, just…

As well as being well and truly lost, Yuuri was still living his reality-nightmare but this time he found himself in another strange area where literal glitter was raining down from the sky. All he could do was stare upward in disbelief, thankful that his glasses protected his eyes somewhat from the descending glitter… though of course, that didn’t last too long when a small piece of pink glitter found its way into his eye.

This was a dream, right? It had to be.

No, not a dream. Dreams were often pleasant, sometimes they were exciting in a good way. This… was definitely not a dream. In fact, it was on par with a nightmare… except deep down he knew that it was in fact, reality.

To make matters worse, he didn’t even know where he was, why he was here or who brought him here. His head felt muzzy, the strange man on the screen in that lab seemed rather vague with details or maybe Yuuri wasn’t really listening, instead his thoughts racing about what exactly happened to him. And so, he had stepped outside, wandered around for a little while and encountered an array of bubbles.

Hundreds of them, bouncing along the sidewalk of an area he was completely unfamiliar with. Brown eyes scanned the area, hoping that maybe, just maybe he’d see someone he knew… just someone who could explain what—

A bubble bounced off his head and landed upon his palms as he held his hands out to catch it. The bubble didn’t pop… instead it remained there, intact as a multitude of bubbles bounced off and surrounded him quicker than he expected.

“Ah, um… excuse me!” He called out, catching sight of a stranger up ahead. The bubbles kept falling and soon Yuuri found himself in a very unfortunate situation. “I’m very sorry but… I think I’m stuck?”
