Note

How would a double date go between—

a) Spike/Gojo 🤝 Katsuki/Victor

b) Spike/Gojo 🤝 Kobayashi/Tooru

c) all three of those pairings together 😂

Bonus:

all three of them + Saiki’s parents

*cackles at the pure potential of chaotic energy*

...

I chose C, final answer

It may not be what you had in mind, but I hope you enjoy!

And Happy Birthday! 🥳��🥳

Victor took in a deep breath and shook out his limbs to loosen himself up. Today was it, he was going on another date with his dear Yuuri! Oh, it felt like ages since he last saw his darling angel!

(He literally just talked to him 3 minutes ago.)

But not only that, he was going on a triple date! A triple date with Yuuri's friends! That latter was actually the one to suggest it!

Last Week

"Hey, Victor?"

Victor looked up from the TV and gave a pearly, white smile to the gorgeous creature of a boyfriend, "Yes Yuuri?"

"I was wondering," Yuuri's cheeks went red under his glasses, and Victor just wanted to squeal at the sight, "um, you know about my friends? The ones I meet when traveling outside of Hasetsu?"

"I do." He was able to recall those times because Yuuri was so animated when telling Victor about these wonderful friends of his that meet when traveling around Japan.

"Well, some of them just so happened to travel here, apparently to surprise me," Yuuri let out an embarrassed chuckle as he ducked his head, "One thing lead to another, and I was wondering if you… wantedtogoonatripledatewiththem?!"

Victor had to take a mental pause at the sudden word vomit, "What?"

Yuuri peeked at him, producing such an adorable expression, and started again, "Do you want to go on a triple date with them? They want to be able to meet you and they have brought their own significant others with them, and, well…"

Victor didn't even let him finish that sentence as he lunged over and trapped Yuuri in a bear hug, pulling him down with him into the couch with a thump. His darling yelped in shock with his face turning into a deeper shade of red. The silver haired man buried his nose into the crook of his boyfriend's neck and just squeezed tightly.

"Of course I would want to!" He exclaimed happily after he pulled back a gaze in Yuuri's warm, brown eyes.

Said eyes widened, "Really?!"

"Yes Yuuri! We get to go on a date and I get to meet some of your friends you've been telling me about, it's a win-win!"

He watched as the surprise on Yuuri's face melted into pure joy, one that he wished would stay on his boyfriend's beautiful and handsome face, "Thank you! I promise you'll love them!"

"Can't wait!" The two embraced again, but of being at such a weird angle on the couch, they both fell off, causing both of them to laugh.

Present Day

And so here he was, adjusting his white turtleneck that complimented his brown dress pants and dress shoes. Once done with that, Victor also made sure his hair was at top performance.

"These are Yuuri's friends! First impressions are always important! And tonight I'll show them that Yuuri means the world to me!" Victor triumphantly thought to himself, already imagining how tonight will play out.

But that was going to have to wait as the doorbell rang, pulling Victor out of his fantasies.

"Ah! They're here already?! I swear Gojo!" From the bathroom Victor could hear Yuuri grumble under his breath before shouting out, "Victor! Can you get the door please?"

"As you wish." The flustered groan that came after that was worth it as he flew out of the room with his boyfriend calling out, "I should have never shown you that movie!"

Letting out a laugh, Victor strutted his way to the door, making sure he was still presentable.

"Alright Victor, show time!" He smiled to himself as he straightened up, twisted the knob, and opened the door wide.

"Hello! You must be Yuuri's friends!" Is what he is saying with his TV smile, but it almost faltered at the sight of a singular man.

Victor suddenly felt inadequate.

Standing in front of him was a man that was clearly five centimeters taller than him. But that wasn't the issue. The issue was that this man was good-looking, making Victor confused in more ways than one. The man black dress shoes, dark purple dress pants, a light blue collar shirt with the first two buttons undone showing off some of his chest, and dark sunglasses. And his skin? It was flawless! And the hair that was on top of his head, was that natural?! The spikey locks fell down softly, framing his dazzling face and was pure white as the snow back home.

Victor was still, and always will be, fiercely loyal to Yuuri. But at that moment, the air in his lungs had left the building.

"Ah! And you must be Victor! one that managed to capture our dear friend's heart!" That captivating man exclaimed jovially.

His voice… no fair.

But Victor managed to collect himself and look at the man directly in his sunglasses-covered eyes, "Ah, but if anything, he had captured mine! I don't know how I got so lucky!"

A smirk played on the other man's lips, "To be happily snared away, that I can relate to."

He suddenly stepped to the side to reveal a man at his own one hundred and eighty-five centimeter height with messy black hair*, a blue leisure suit with a yellow shirt and blue boots. He had such a lanky frame that Victor wondered if this man had eaten before coming here. But it worked well with the sharp features of his face and olive skin, especially with the nonchalant expression he was sporting.

The taller man then draped his arm upon his shoulder and then pointed to himself, "I'm Satoru Gojo! But please do call me Gojo as it makes it easier to discern my twin and I. And this lovely lean bean of mine is Spike Spiegel!"

The man, Gojo, then reached down with his free hand, grasped Spike's closest hand, and kissed the top of it.

The latter didn't react beyond a small smile before patting the former's cheek with it, "Come on now, save that for later."

The deep, yet light tone of his voice was definitely not something of this world. That's what Victor at least thought.

The white haired man pouted, "But how am I supposed to express my love to you?!"

"With words."

Gojo gave a mock gasp as he turned back to Victor, "Did you hear him?! Words?! How can words even begin to cover how wonderful he is? They can't!"

Victor felt himself relating to that sentence, but watched in fascination at the dramatic display of Gojo poking Spike's cheek, who did nothing more than hum. They… are an interesting duo for sure. Yuuri told him how these two love to play up the dramatics, Gojo mostly, and both love to get on people's nerves. But the way they were looking at each other, it was as though they were lost souls who found solidarity in each other and would do anything to stay together. A love as strong as that was comparable to his and Yuuri's love.

(Unless Victor had anything to say about it.)

"So you're Gojo and Spike! Yuuri has told me so much about you!" Victor said, deciding to make small talk.

"Good things I hope!"

"Gojo, that's setting the bar pretty high, don't you think?"

"Oh my milky way, you never cease to carve into my heart with that blunt knife of yours."

"I aim to please."

Victor was about to comment again when he heard a growl coming from behind the two men. All three looked to see a woman with long blonde hair with faded tips of orange and pink tied up into twin tails and sharp brown eyes. He said sharp because the woman clad in a pink, short sleeve dress with elevated white sandals was staring at all of them as if she was trying to set them on fire and had another, woman he was guessing, in a death bear hug.

"Tohru, I know you love me and I love you too, but I would like to be able to breathe please." The trapped woman in a white collar shirt underneath a light beige sweater with green pants and flats, stated that so calmly, this must be a daily occurrence.

"Oh, sorry!" The other woman, Tohru, released her quickly, clasping her hands in front of her, "But you know that if anyone is the best partner, it's you Kobayashi!"

The now named Kobayashi, who wore round frame glasses and had light brown hair tied into a ponytail, shook her head, "While I am flattered, please refrain from strangling me to death again."

"But what if I wanna hug you?!"

"We've gone over this, just ask me."

"..."

Kobayashi's raised an eyebrow as Tohru gave her the puppy dog eyes.

"...Can I hug you? Please?

The spectacled woman sighed, but held her arms out wide. Tohru immediately clinged to her like no tomorrow. Victor took note of their interaction too. Tohru was easily excited, and educationally guessing overprotective. While on the surface it seems that Kobayashi just tolerates her, it was clear that she loved the eccentric woman in her own way, even if it's not so obvious to the naked eye.

"I'm pretty sure you have already guessed but that's Kobayashi and Tohru." Spike stated calmly.

"Sorry about dropping in so soon." Kobayashi stated with Tohru's arms encircled around her, "We thought Gojo texted Yuuri saying we'll be here at 5:30. Imagine our surprise when we found out he "accidentally" sent him the wrong time." She hissed the last part through her teeth, to which Gojo gave an innocent grin.

"You put Gojo in charge of a task, this shouldn't be surprising in the slightest." Spike shrugged.

"Said the enabler."

"Hey, I'm not an enabler! I'm his partner in crime, which is a big difference!"

"Why did the universe allow you two to meet?"

"Because it was bored and wanted us to bring havoc upon the world!" Gojo cheered.

"...Ugh, I give up."

Gojo and Spike high five each other as Kobayashi looked so done and Tohru was once again trying to burn the duo with her eyes. Victor, while pleasantly surprised that none of them were Celebrity Struck at the sight of him, could only look back and forth between the two pairs and wonder how did Yuuri fit into all of this?

"Won't you come inside?" He sidesteps to make way for them.

"Ah, yes! Thank you!" Gojo pulled Spike into the Katsuki residence as Tohru did the same with Kobayashi.

As he closed the door, Victor found himself face to face with Spike, who was regarding him carefully. Gojo was apparently talking to Tohru and Kobayashi, leaving the other man free.

He didn't say anything for a good minute before leaning up against a nearby wall, "Victor Nikiforov, right?"

The Russian skater nodded, felt his heart beat faster under the scrutinizing gaze.

"You've been taking care of Yuuri?"

He nodded faster this time, "I have."

"And he's been taking care of you?"

Victor felt the heat rise to his cheeks, "The other skaters like to joke that Yuuri is dating and babysitting me at the same time."

He scratched his cheek in embarrassment as Spike just blinked at him.

"And what you risk to may sure that he's not only safe, but also happy?"

Such a deep question coming from such a blase man caught Victor off guard, but he remedied that by stating a single word without thinking.

"Everything."

Spike still didn't make any sudden moves or emotions at first, but he then gave a small nod and said, "Good."

Victor willed himself to slow his heart rate, feeling slightly better after passing that test. Though he knew there were still more to come. Just then, he heard the sound of footsteps approaching closer at the end of the hall. He walked over to get a good look and he was not disappointed in the slightest.

Yuuri's raven hair was slicked back, the warm lights of the house glinting off it radiantly, but he still wore his glasses, making him look both professional and adorable. His skin was also beautiful as it was fair and unblemish almost making Victor have bedroom thoughts. Yuuri also had on a white collar shirt with a blue tie and black dress pants. He felt himself fall for Yuuri all over again as he got to gaze into his warm eyes again. The smile that was given to him made Victor melt.

But then when Yuuri's eyes landed on the rest of the party, a bigger grin broke out on his face.

"Guys!"

Kobayashi smiled, Spike gave a two finger salute, and Gojo only lifted his arms up in front of him in silence. And then with speeds that Victor had only seen him execute on the ice, Yuuri ran towards them, only to suddenly LEAP OFF FROM THE GROUND AT THEM?!?!

Thank god that Gojo was there to catch him and Victor went on to watch the tall man spin Yuuri around in a tight hug before setting him down, with both Spike and Kobayashi following close behind. The former didn't hug him, but patted Yuuri on the back while Kobayashi embraced the ice skater from the front.

They all started talking animatedly to each other, asking the usual 'How have you been?' questions and what not, with Yuuri jokingly punching Gojo's shoulder saying, "You should have given me the right time! I was barely ready!"

"But then that ruins the whole point of this being a surprise!" The taller man sang, making Yuuri jokingly punch his shoulder again.

Victor watched in awe how seamlessly Yuuri was brought out of his shell and slotted into the group like a perfect puzzle piece. The witty banter, inside jokes, and overall ease of the atmosphere between the four of them was startling. The Russian skater had never seen his boyfriend this hyper before. Even when Yuuri got excited, there was always a mellow aura about him. But now? Now Victor was watching his boyfriend pretending to be a knight protecting the damsel-in-distress Kobayashi from the wicked king and queen Spike and Gojo.

"I was surprised too." Victor almost leapt back in shock to see Tohru standing next to him with a soft expression, "I saw that look on your face. I had a similar experience too. Back when I met them for the first time, Kobayashi also became a totally different version of herself, and to be honest, I got jealous."

Victor could imagine, but he still asked, "Really?"

"I… may or may not have threatened to rip off one of their faces if they try to steal Kobayashi from me. Fujinuma, if I recall correctly." Tohru had the decency to look ashamed.

"...Oh."

"But when I actually got to know them, I realized that these people are important to her, and they make her happy," Tohru smiled quietly at her significant other, "And when she's happy, then I'm happy. Plus now that I got to see her from another angle, they're good for her, aren't they?"

Victor turned back to the group, watching Yuuri laugh at something Kobayashi said. He felt a natural smile grace his lips as the light around his boyfriend truly made him look like an angel.

"But look at my Kobayashi funny and you have a whole problem to deal with, got it?" She suddenly growled and bared her teeth like they were fangs.

Victor did feel slightly threatened, so he nodded quickly, "Loud and clear."

"Good."

"Guess I was right about the overprotective part."

"But of course my Kobayashi is the most wonderful one out of all of them." She declared boldly.

Victor took a pause, before chuckling, "I'm afraid that's where you're wrong my dear, my Yuuri is the most wonderful one."

She side eyed him, "Is that a challenge?"

The two then made full eye contact as they stared down each, not backing down in the name of their loved one.

"I believe so." Victor said lowly as there was a crackle of lightning between them.

"Hold up!" The two suddenly pulled from their staring contest and found Gojo to be looking at them as if they lost it, "I don't mean this in any offense, seeing that Kobayashi and Yuuri are both my friends. However, this is where I have to counterpoint that… both of you are wrong and my stardust is the most wonderful one!"

When Gojo made a grand and dramatic gesture to his own boyfriend, Victor knew that he and Tohru had the same thought.

"Oh, it's on!"

"Gojo, don't go making things in a competition."

"What Kobayashi said, I don't think we can handle another one of those."

"Even I have to agree, let's just enjoy the night, okay?" Spike came up to his boyfriend and gave a lazy grin.

"Even in your honor?"

"Even in my honor skylight." The lanky man then gave Gojo a peck on the cheek and then led him through the door, "Now come on, there's a reservation and hot pot with our names on it!"

"That's not until 6, so we might as well sightsee since we have the time."

"Which is why you should be thanking me!" Gojo crowed to Kobayashi, who linked arms with Tohru.

"Never going to happen."

As the white haired man groaned in fake disappointment, Victor and Yuuri, who was still getting his shoes on, were the only ones left inside.

"So?" Yuuri asked nervously, glancing at between him and the door of where the group had exited, "I know they can be a bit much when meeting them for the first time, but what's your opinion on them?"

Victor had only taken a second to really think about it before giving his boyfriend a side hug and giving his own kiss on the cheek, "They're good for you. All of them are keepers."

Yuuri lit up like a roman candle and gave a kiss back in return, "Thanks, that means the world to me."

Victor felt the whole room warm up at the sight and sound of Yuuri being full of joy. He knew he was an aspect of Yuuri's life, one that he hoped would last forever, but now seeing the laughter and smiles Yuuri gained when he was around his friends, then Victor wasn't going to complain in the slightest.

"Though Kobayashi does sound awfully a lot like your sister."

"Oh she knows. She uses it to her advantage."

Even though Victor felt like there was some kind of hidden meaning behind those words, he couldn't help but chuckle alongside Yuuri.

"Now come on, if we don't leave now, Gojo and Spike will get into trouble."

Victor laughed louder this time, "Oh come on, they can't be that bad."

Yuuri paused through the doorway, turned back to him, and said point blank, "You know those two accidentally robbed a bank, right?"

His smile faltered, "Wait, what?"

"Kidding!" Yuuri smirked and Victor reminded himself to breathe, almost having an aneurysm at the idea of Yuuri being friends with a pair of criminals, "But no, seriously, we have to go otherwise they will get into trouble. Accidentally or otherwise."

Victor couldn't tell if his boyfriend was joking or not this time but he threw on his jacket and held Yuuri's hand as they stepped outside. The rest of the group was waiting for them, though it seems that Gojo and Tohru were ready to go toe to toe with each other.

As Victor watched Yuuri join Kobayashi and Spike to play mediator, with the warmth from his hand and the light radiating from the fond smile that the former wore on his face, he thought, "Yeah, they're good for you Yuuri. And it seems that you're good for them too."

Victor wasn't sure what sort of memories would be created on this night, but at this moment, he was going to treasure every bit of it.

*The reason why some of they have different hair and or eye colors is because they would be considered abnormal in Yuuri's world and they don't want people to ask questions/draw attention to themselves.

@forfodlan || [ FEAR ] : sender, out of instinctive fear, grabs receiver's hand for comfort. / from bernie Hand holding.

Bernadetta had been running about for what must have been hours, with Yuri trailing along after her. Today, they’re finding interesting-looking plants and leaves. It’s a silly little game, Yuri thinks. It’s a stupid— albeit necessary for his purpose here— waste of time, is what he tries to convince himself. Yet, without even realizing, he’s having fun. Never before in his life would he have imagined he could feel so pleased doing something as pointless as finding a leave covered in weird spots and holes for his friend to see, as he is now.

Sometimes, he becomes almost aware of it, and it confuses him, but right now? Right now, he’s trying to figure out where Bernadetta went, so he can hear what she’s got to say about what he’s found.

Only, when he looks up, he doesn’t see her. No, he sees the Count, who’s not far off, apparently also looking for his daughter. Thankfully, the gardener’s assistant looking at a plant in the garden isn’t nearly notable enough to warrant his full attention, and when he doesn’t spot Bernadetta, he moves on.

When he’s sure the Count isn’t coming back, Yuri sets to looking for Bernadetta again, and after a good few minutes checking all of their favorite places, he eventually finds her at the base of an old tree that’s surrounded by lush bushes, which create a perfect little hiding spot just at the base of the trunk.

❝ There you are, ❞ he greets, his voice sing-song with eagerness as he pushes himself partway through the bushes to fetch her. ❝ Let’s go, we still have time before the gardener will be needing me. ❞ With that, he turns to leave, expecting her to follow, until he feels her hand around his. ❝ H-hey— ❞ Unexpected, the sudden halting of his exit nearly makes him fall back, but when he looks at her, rather than being upset, he is only concerned; she’s scared, and he can see it clear as day.

It’s no wonder why either. Yuri has, a few times now, seen or heard her struggling to avoid being taken. Witnessing it, even thinking about it, makes him sad and angry all at once. He thinks of his own mother, and can’t imagine how a parent can bring themselves to make their kid not want to be around them that desperately.

❝ Hey, ❞ he repeats, this time soft, quiet, ❝ Look, you see? Everything’s fine now, Bernadetta. ❞ Still, he doesn’t try to pull her from their hiding spot. Instead, he sits beside her ( on the bare dirt, just for her! ), one hand still in hers, the other reaching into a small pouch at his belt. From within, he pulls what must have been one of the flight feathers of a small bird, and holds it out to her. ❝ Here. It’s pretty much the same color as your hair, so I thought you might like it. ❞ It’s a horrible gift, he thinks, but all he wants is to take her mind off of her father.

#forfodlan #idk i felt like writing the bbys #a little childhood tidbit if you will #little yuri: yeah i'll kill her!#also little yuri: here's a feather i found it reminded me of u (ꈍ ꒳ ꈍ✿)#anyway... yuri was adopted by count rowe at age 14 so his time with bernie must have been before then?#because after then it literally wouldn't have made sense as far as a risk/reward ratio goes #so someone hired a kid that was no older than probably 13 to kill a kid 2 years younger #and that's just Peak Stupid #but that's just my headcanon as far as timeline goes *shrug*#look at this idiot...... he's experiencing having a non-juvenile-delinquent friend for the first time since he was like a 7yo probably #of course he couldn't follow through with killing her #and just kill me at bernie saying yuri was gentle and trustworthy (and gorgeous lmao) in that support!!!#anyway he definitely didn't go by yuri at this time (or probably by his original name either) but i don't feel like coming up with an alias #anyway check out my essay-length tags rambling #( ic )

The lack of backlash or general homophobia in Yuri on Ice might lead you to believe it takes place in an idealized version of our world. Yet the presence of masks in the 2022 official art indicate that the COVID-19 pandemic still happened in this timeline, which would not be the case in an ideal world. This indicates that Yuri on Ice does not necessarily take place in a better world, but rather, a distinct world with its own set of political and social issues. In this essay I will

Burnout turned into me taking an unintended hiatus from tumblr, just popping in because I’m off work and wanted to visit after the Ice Adolescence news 🥲

I knew it was unlikely to ever air at this point, but seeing it confirmed really hit hard and I am so sad about it. Yuri On Ice means so much to me. I remember seeing the trailer and being excited because I love figure skating. I had no idea what it would turn into.

I’ve said it before, but watching Yuri On Ice air weekly, and being online during it really was one of those “you had to be there” experiences. That’s why I wanted to post here first about it. Being on tumblr while it aired was such a good time for me. Watching my timeline explode every week as it kept exceeding our expectations, and emotions were heightened because it really felt like we were experiencing it collectively.

I know I sound dramatic, and it’s not like the show itself is gone. I can rewatch it anytime I want, and have done so many times. But we were promised more. The show deserved more, and so did its fans. I’m just sad to see it treated that way, and it feels like its mark in the anime world is being erased instead of given the attention it deserved.

MORTAL KOMBAT 1 Thoughts Pt2.

[❌❌contains SPOILERS❌❌]

Continuation from yesterday

Chapter 6

They keep switching between Bromance and Romance for Kenshi and Johnny. Which one is it now???

I adore Johnny being protective of Kenshi, and Kenshi holding onto him while walking.

The way reptile switched from human to lizard, makes it look like he is not actually shape shifting, merely casting an Illusion to seem human.

Nitara is hot and all, love the design, but....who thought it was a great idea to have Megan Fox voice her? No shade but the voice acting is pretty awful.

Kenshi trying to run in with Sento but is pushed back in a comedical way by Ermac SENT ME. I felt so bad but I couldn't stop laughing.

Sento activating in this fight was pretty cool, I will not lie.

Not Jerrod shouting out for Sindel😭😭

Chapter 7

I wonder why Liu Kang didn't get fully rid of Krusty Kronika. Just because he is playing god now doesn't mean she's any harmless. But also wasn't Kronika fully destroyed?

Lesbians

Johnny and Kung Lao trying to knock out Quan Chi in the middle of the street while dressed up in those carneval suits was a sight for sore eyes.

NOT THE SIDE KICK PREDICTIONS WITH REPTILE AND KENSHI LITERALLY FLYING IN PLSSS

This entire chapter is full of comedic bits, and I'm here for it. We need more stuff like this.

Chapter 8

I like the implication that some things are inevitable, no matter how you think you shaped things differently.

I enjoy Geras and Liu Kang s friendship a lot.

So Liu didn't intend for Kronika to be alive in this timeline after all.

"Father" Is smoke now Bi-Han and Kuais brother??Was he adopted adopted??

Aight but am I the only one who thinks Smoke looks like Elon Musk? Like, for real,, it's freaking me out.

I know Smoke is voiced by Yuri Lowenthal but I keep hearing Troy Baker.

That manipulative parallel from when Shang Tsung was a Merchant still was very clever

Chapter 9

Okay crazy theory, but what if Kronika isn't Kronika, but Alt Shang Tsung in disguise???

Why am I not surprised by the betrayal. Still having hopes that Bi-Han is just bluffing to save Kuai.

Kuai being out for blood is really entertaining. That melting sword scene was so damn cool too.

Scorpion being affected and literally burned by heat somehow doesn't make sense to me. Especially with Subzero seemingly not being harmed by frost and ice. Also Havik recovered from that melt off really fcking fast. Bowing down to you, king.

Bi-Han literally showing up from behind the cold wind was such an amazing entrance. I was even jumpscared a little.

5bucks that new course is the Shirai Ryu

Chapter 10

If the second timeline the ending to aftermath where Shang Tsung won?? If so, that is the coolest decision NRS has ever made so far.

Li Mei is so pretty. I adore her so much.

Have y'all noticed how weird the run animation in this game is. It's so awkward and looks half-assed.

Mileena is such a good fighter but I hate how much she is being babied. I know it's because of Tarkat, but it's kinda silly.

Lesbians

I am very amazed with the character design improvement in this game. I thought MK11 was already damn pretty, but MK1 really put the icing on top. There are so many fine details in the environment and outfits, I am eating this up like desert.

Will hopefully finish the rest of the game tomorrow though! Last and Final thoughts coming in soon!

Chronology of events for my post-canon 200k+ Yuri!!! on Ice fic series

One inevitability of writing such a massive post-canon Yuri!!! on Ice fic series that spans 5 years -- including 2 different Olympic Games (2018 PyeongChang Games and the 2022 Beijing Games) -- is that I've found myself at times struggling with second-guessing the continuity of events that I've built into my fic-verse ('Gold's On The Inside, Elevated My Feet'). This is especially the case b/c in my series, the 2018 Winter Olympics were marked by a scandal (note: not doping) that catalyzed a ton of events that followed in the realm of Yuuri and Viktor's relationship, and in the world of elite/competitive figure skating in general.

It got me thinking recently that it might be helpful to post the chronology of events (both personal, as well as the sports politics-related) that I've been working from, beginning from the time Viktor was born. My hope is to post this soon as part 6 of the series, and prior to uploading Chapter 15 (which, if you're new to my work, will detail the Men's Singles Short Program at the 2022 Beijing Games).

Other authors that have worked on stories spanning multiple big events or time periods: how do you manage to keep everything consistent and ensure that your continuity remains throughout? And, have you found it helpful to share your timeline of events in some kind of listed chronology for your readers?

I think I've been doing a decent job so far, but every so often I'm like "Oh wait, damnit, who did I write as the silver medalist as the 2021 World Figure Skating Championships, again?" or, "Hmmm...I originally noted that Yuuri and Viktor would move to Fukuoka, Japan in 'summer 2019', but when, specifically did I mean???"

And then I panic, worried that I've somehow contradicted myself somewhere LOL

Today's translation #460

Go Yuri Go!!!, Yuri!!! on ICE official fanbook, Jun'ichi Suwabe interview

Part 4.

-- Please tell us about a scene, in which you had trouble playing Victor.

S: The honest answer would be "all the scenes", but if I have to pick up some, then I will say it was the beginning of the show, episodes 1~3, I think? It was really tough for me, trying to understand the nature of Victor Nikiforov. It seemed to me that I didn't have enough information to create the character as one realistic, living human being - well, one reason was that it is an original anime. I don't usually have to worry a lot about how I should express emotions of characters I play, but as I've mentioned before, in case of Victor, I often was asked to play him in a completely different, almost opposite, way to what my image of the character was. It was me, who played the role, but I don't really feel that I did. Probably because often I was expressing [in my performance] different emotions than those of Victor that lives inside me.

-- What the directing was like during voice-over recording?

S: If I played the character going based on the context of the lines I was saying and additional information written in the screenplay, Victor would become a cool (かっこいい) character. But I think that the directors wanted Victor to be, first and foremost, not so much a "cool character", but "a genius that don't fit the standard". I think it was like a trial and error method for us to get that right. I was often asked to do multiple takes like: "It wasn't bad, but lets try something different".

-- Victor's "Vkusno!" was so cute. Was that you who came with the idea to say in that way?

S: I said it that way during a test recording and I wasn't told anything about it, so I said it in the same way during the actual recording.

[Notes: I must have stop reading this interview on the Makkachin vs. Yuuri answer before, because it really surprised me that he has said that Victor wasn't supposed to be a "cool character"...

A large part of YoI fandom in Jp were fujos absolutely obsessed with gender norms, and who is seme, who is uke blah blah... (I've ranted about this before).

Seme should be cool (かっこいい) and uke should be cute（かわいい）period... And based on that, cute Victor arts were according to them "against the canon".

It's really interesting, because before this guidebook was published uke-Yuuri fujos had a massive meltdown over the art that was drawn for it, with Yurio in the spotlight in the center and no rings.... It was then slightly redrawn (but Victor still has gloves, so "no ring"). (EDIT: sorry, it wasn't this one... I forgot which one I'm translating from 💀 The "problematic" illustration was for the Yuri!!! on Life guidebook. But the point still stands, because the timeline was like this: middle of May 2017 - fujo meltdown, middle of June - Yuri!!! on Life guidebook is published, beginning of July - this fanbook is published... So they were working on this one, as fujos went rabid over the Yurio illustration, then over Yurio exhibition and other stuff concerning the last DVD, which was released at the end of May...)

There was so much anti-fujos dog-whistling in YoI, and reading this interview I wonder if maybe this "Victor not cool, but cute" and the weird, slightly anti-Yuuri answers (the Makkachin vs. Yuuri etc.) were because of that... It would take me a lot of time to summarize for you the whole history of this behavior from Avex&co., but one day I'll do that 💀]

Things about AWTWB that I forgot about or just noticed for the first time, upon a recent re-listen:

Lady Ruth as an unreliable narrator: “I’m not one to hold grudges” but next page “I would dance on his grave and throw a fiesta and then resurrect him so I could kill him again” (My poor paraphrase)

Baz, about vampires: “They’re less like murderers - more like sexy bedbugs”

Baz, about Petra and Sophie: “I thought twins were supposed to be best friends, but all they do is eat jam and butter sandwiches and throw things at each other" (Me, adding to my Jelly Babies notes folder: “Yup, that tracks”)

Simon (about Baz): “I mean, have a look at him. He’s the most fuckable person alive. Or otherwise” (#facts)

Dev is a PITCH cousin, not a GRIMM fuck me why did I think he was a Grimm sljk;dskljdskjldsaljks

The door knocker for Salisbury House is shaped like a SMILING CYCLOPS (adding to my Rosethorn girl notes folder)

Simon, to Baz: “I’m not letting you fuck with my face. Although I’m starting to get the feeling you really want to.” Oh-okay, horny boi

Simon notes like three times in three pages that Smith Smith-Richards is fit like hmmmmmm-kay

Every time Smith Smith-Richards mentions Simon: "I'm not jealous okay I'm a little jealous how is he so hot" they're a li'l mutual admiration club

Simon, to Baz: “I can get one of those poles” (clothes racks) but because of Yuri on Ice!!, my brain went “pole-dancing Simon Snow??”

Shepherd holds the secret key to being magic even when you don’t speak magic: “The world is magic, and I’m a part of the world.”

THE GRIMM KIDS HAVE A DOG: “a Tibetan mastiff that they bought when they moved to Oxford.” (In my head canon this dog is named Amblewise, or another name from this list of medieval dog names, THANK YOU GOOD NIGHT)

I continue to have Complicated Feelings about Malcolm Grimm but he is So Soft for Daphne: “He treats her with as much polite tenderness as ever. He dotes on her, in his way. Caters to her every whim without making a show of it.”

JAMIE knew about the Goats of Watford when none of the folks who actually went to Watford did, besides Niamh, like JKASDJKLDSAJKLSADKLJADSKLADSKLJADSKJL UNCLE JAMBY FOR THE WIN

Penelope Bunce is a Fucking Queen: “Being comforting isn’t one of my core competencies. Breaking people out of towers is.”

Pippa Stainton is a Goddamn Empress: “I don’t forgive you. I never want to see you again. Tell Simon I say thank you.”

Simon and Jamie get fucking KFC in a stolen van after the hullabaloo with Smith-Richards and if that’s not nephew-uncle bonding at its finest, I don’t what is

Miss Christie, the school nurse, is the only person (I think) who basically says to Simon, “I’m sorry for your loss” instead of “The Mage was a flaming sack of shit”

I’m not crazy… Penny really is a year younger than the rest of them (thought I was mixing this up with Hermione)

LUCY also started Watford a year early fsalkjsadsjlkfsdljkdfs (now I have to go back and fix my timelines for Rosethorn girl, FUCK)

Just like Lady Ruth, Mitali hoped that Lucy would come out of hiding after the Mage died (just stab me harder in the heart, Rainbow)

I DO really want a fic of bisexual Martin Bunce making bread; I feel like our core competencies overlap in many ways

There are magical swans in Oxford. I bet they r gay

Simon cries when Baz plays the violin

They're all good dogs, Bront. 16/10 will listen to this audiobook again for like..... the sixth time

#AWTWB #AWTWB spoilers #queue tea so no idea when the ocean tides of tumblr will throw this up
