WE ARE BLESSED LET’S BREAK TUMBLR AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!
Y'all I think they want us to lose our shit again
NEW OFFICIAL ART!!!!!!
HERE WE HAVE BOTH VIKTOR AND YUURI SITTING ON THE KISS AND CRY CORNER (I suppose)!!! Once again, we have been blessed this year (when it comes to our dear YOI). It isn't new for the fandom that the creators of this anime like to spoil us with various details, but I think this one detail is worth paying attention to. For example their facial expressions. It looks like Viktor is very close to crying given his clearly visible tear. And also their cheeks, which are covered with red pigments. I really can't help but think about how happy they may be... perhaps because of Yuuri's score? Due to their masks we don't get see their full expressions, but I like to think about them being happy and overjoyed for some reason. This official art blessed the whole Yuri!!! On Ice fandom. Edit; THEY REPOSTED THE SAME ART BUT WITH A LOVELY ADJUSTMENT
Viktor has his ring back. THEY FORGOT IT IN THE FIRST PLACE! I really can’t with this. It's a total Serotonin overdose for the fandom.

Just imagine Victor getting very upset when a random magazine puts his name on the Top 5 Sexiest Men Alive and Yuuri being like in Top 15
Receptionist: You're calling "Let's Objectify Men" magazine. I'm Clara. How may I help you?
Victor: Hi Clara. Could I talk to the writer of the Sexist Men Alive list please?
Receptionist: I'm not sure Miss. Blindeye is here at the moment, but I could pass you to the editor? May I have a name?
Victor: The editor would be fine. I'm Victor Katsuki-Nikiforov.
Receptionist:
Receptionist: As in...Victor Nikiforov the ice skater?
Victor: Katsuki-Nikiforov, yes. That would be me.
*His call gets automatically transferred. He barely waits a minute*
Editor: Mr. Nikiforov. I'm Katherine Surname. Its very nice to meet you.
Victor: Katsuki-Nikiforov and, yes, likewise. I called regarding the Sexiest Men Alive list I was informed you are the editor of?
Editor: Ah, yes. I hope we didn't offend you in an-
Victor: You did.
Editor:
Victor: Have you looked at my husband?
Editor:
Editor: Mr. Yuuri Katsuki, yes. He was also featured on our list.
Victor: Katsuki-Nikiforov and yes, he was. In 14th place.
Editor:
Victor: I'm sorry to ask, but are you blind?
Wow I wish, I'm in this fandom earlier. But it's okay, the gayness is still there.
a random list of things you might not remember if you weren’t there while Yuuri on ice was just coming out because I was in a mood:
-when the trailer/preview dropped and everyone was like “uuuh looks gay” and then the actual first episode came out and we were like. Yep. Called it
-when someone finally translated Stammi Vicino and everyone got really excited because it was explicitly mlm
-for about the first three weeks everyone was like “there is no way this show can get any gayer” and then it regularly did so we all just gave up
-when people caught on the fact that the opening changed details with every new episode and got really excited, and that one person who made side by side comparisons of all openings every week
-that very short period of time when we genuinely couldn’t tell if Yurio was meant to be an antagonist or not
-I’m pretty sure Evgenia Medvedeva was there from the start and there was just this. Surreal feeling that along with all of us trash goblins one of the rising stars of the figure skating world was also very emotional over these anime boys
-on that note, those actual figure skating fans who were delivering a ton of meta over what actual skaters the characters were based on
-when everyone lost it after ep3 came out and we were all like! did Victor just tell Yuuri he loves him through food metaphors??
-just. “I’m a pork cutlet bowl fatale that enthralls men”. that was good shit
-the “Victor is going to leave Yuuri and break his heart!” discourse that came with that episode
-and then we all kinda calmed down with episode four and I remember everyone crying because,,,, they took one whole episode just for character development,,,,, we stan one (1) good anime
-the smol japanese skater that got really excited about meeting Yuuri and we were all like “mood”
-also when Christophe was introduced and everyone was just like, WHAT THE FUCK
-when ep6 came out with the preview for ep7 and everyone was like. THEY DIDN’T SHOW ANYTHING TOO GAY IN THE PREVIEW WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??? SHOULD WE WORRY???? (no literally I just found some screenshots of a text I sent to a friend of mine that says “the preview doesn’t look gay enough and I don’t trust that”)
-when ep. 7 dropped and everyone and their mother lost their shit and YOI trended for a whole week on tumblr and people were joining the fandom in HORDES which to this day is probably still the most surreal fandom experience I’ve ever had
-idk if this was a universal thing but the italian subfandom had all those michele crispino memes about wine
-also when Sara Crispino got introduced and the subtitles said Sala and everyone was crying because it was just really bad
-everyone shouting to know Victor’s backstory
-that whole week of being 100% convinced Makkachin would die, fun times
-when episode? 10 I think? came out and it was revealed that Yuuri had seduced Victor at the afterparty the previous year and everyone was LOSING IT
- that whole episode just killed everyone tbh
-also Otabek showed up and people were thirsting reaaal hard
-the Otayuri discourse which I’m assuming continues to this day
-HAMSTER META
-“I will give you something gold and shiny for your birthday” and everyone being like. Are they tricking us into thinking it’s a medal when it’s, in fact, a wedding ring, or are they tricking us into thinking it’s a wedding ring when it is, in fact, a medal?
-everyone crying after episode 11 and all the meta on what was gonna happen. I think the general opinion was that Yuuri would win gold and then he and Victor would retire together lmao
-also when it got strongly implied that Christophe had a boyfriend and people got really emotional, that was cute
-I just remember everyone dying over the final episode, with the freaking Stammi Vicino duet, tbh
-overall it was just a freaking wild experience and two years later I’m still so glad I was there for that
THIS IS THE CUTEST SHIT EVER. AND LOOK AT HIS LEG.
*swoon*
thought: pochayuuri getting a plastic bag caught on his tail and getting increasingly confused/frustrated trying to get it off
A plea for imperfection
Warning: Random rambling ahead.
A friend of mine is beta reading my YoI fan fiction and in the second part (Love Aims At One Scope) she got really mad at Viktor. She's only seen the anime once, and when he makes a rather nasty, off-hand statement to an OC who is trying to make him feel better, she couldn't see it.
But here's the deal, Viktor isn't as clean as he seems. He is the epitome of a person who has no filter.
In the real world, a lot of people who say that about themselves use it as an excuse to be cruel. They put others down intentionally and enjoy it, and when that person has the audacity to tell them they're hurt, they claim they were only joking or gaslight the person in some other way.
Mind you, that is NOT how I see Viktor.
He's a great guy, he cares, he's affectionate, he can be incredibly kind and understanding - and sometimes he talks before he thinks through what effect his words will have. And that sentence in my fic - as bad as it is - I think is completely in character. I really contemplated changing that, or at least have him say something that isn't THAT bad, but it's something I can see. That sentence will stay.
I love Viktor. He's a wonderful human being. But he's also an incredibly flawed deuteragonist who hides his shortcomings behind his charms so well it works in the real world, apparently, not just within the universe.
My friend has since decided she has to watch it again for several reasons, and she'll keep a lookout for this. Currently, she has Viktor as much on a pedestal as Yuuri did, it seems. But for me his less-than-wonderful traits are what make writing him so amazing. It makes him feel real to me, and relatable, and even if I sometimes want to whack him with a wet towel (the original version in the anime and my own), I still think he's a walking green flag. Most of the time. When he actually uses his brain.
Look who's first! Come on, they deserve more than 12 episodes at a time where they couldn't even show their kiss without an arm getting in the way.
One more day! Let's keep our lead. Viktor and Yuuri deserve better than to just fizzle out because some people dislike one of their names.
The Anime Binge-Watcher's Queer Anime Ship Tournament!
The second round rages on! This match-up has me absolutely terrified that my number-one pick is going to be crushed by the titan that is Victuuri. But I can hold out hope, right? Right??? Cast your votes now!
All Round 2 Match-Ups
Rules and Full Bracket
This is the sequel to No Shadow to Run Away From.
Living together is hard.
It’s a canon-compliant continuation, starting just after the end of episode 10 and going on well beyond the plot of the series (eventually). Part 4 is work in progress and will be published when I’m done, but the first three can stand alone (seeing how I didn’t even know I’d write a sequel).
Don’t be confused by the gratuitous Vitali (that is the musical score), that’ll come up. Eventually.

What do I have a tumblr account for if I don’t use it? So here’s some self-promotion.
