Have some Yuri crushing on Yuuri and being mad about it 

-

Yuri offers Katsudon some sour watermelon gummies, bought with Georgi’s money and stolen from Mila. His eyes dart around for his exuberant fiance who would with no doubt, snatch the candy out of his mouth if he caught them. The beginning of the season is always rough on Katsudon.  

He takes one and pops it in his mouth with a soft moan and fluttering of his lashes. Yuri chokes on the gummy he’s in the middle of swallowing and coughs harshly, his ears scarlet. 

It’s a religious experience, watching Katsudon eat and it pisses Yuri off to no end. The crinkle in the corner of his eyes when his eyes scrunch happily and the glistening of his full lips, shiny with spit, he eats candy like it’s a delicacy to be savored. He licks the salt off the tips of his fingers and sucks on them and that’s it, Yuri shoves the rest of the bag at him and stomps off, steaming at the ears. 

I have a habit of monitoring the Japanese doujinshi output for YOI, and I’ve noticed that Yuri Plisetsky x Yuri Katsuki has recently surpassed Otabek x Yuri in the number of works available.  (Source: Otaku Republic, which, from what I’ve seen, roughly mirrors the stock on Japanese websites, so I don’t think it’s just a matter of product selection for sale outside the Japanese market.)

Is it because they want to see Plisetsky on top and this is the only relationship where they can fathom that being the case?  (As of this writing, there is a grand total of one (1!) work tagged with Yuri Plisetsky x Otabek Altin.  Actually, when I click on it, there are 5, so let’s treat these numbers as approximations.)

And if you consider the Katsuki x Plisetsky ones - Altogether, people are producing more published content shipping the Yuris together than shipping Otabek with Yuri, which is just soooo counter to the preferences in the Western fandom, it’s kind of jarring!  (If there are Yuri/Yuri fans hiding somewhere, you can come out of the woodworks - I won’t bite - I just haven’t seen much of it!)
