The Power Of Love Snippet(s)

the power of love snippet(s)

usually i just use this blog to aggressively (and mutely) stalk other yoi blogs, but.

for @kiaronna! a tumblr post of the snippet i wrote in ao3 comments to console myself after chapter 6 in her very very very awesome story, The Power of Love.

“Yuuri,” Victor gasped, pulling abruptly pulling away; he didn’t make it far. He was still leaning into Yuuri, their foreheads pressed together, and he seemed as short of breath as Yuuri felt. “Yuuri,” he repeated, desperately, still so close that Yuuri could feel the way Victor said his name. “Yuuri, Yuuri… I can’t do this to Yuuko.”

Yuuri, already angling for another kiss, froze. He struggled to process what was Victor was saying.

“Um,” he finally managed. “You wouldn’t be – Yuuko would want this!” She and Phichit both would be over the moon.

For some reason, this just made Victor tense even more in his arms. “I can’t be your celebrity exception,” he tragically insisted, voice a pained rasp.

Yuuri choked. “W-what? Victor, n-no,” he stuttered, stumbling to get the words out. He wished Victor would go back to saying his name, so he wouldn’t have to admit this. “Victor… If I were in a relationship, my celebrity exception would be Stéphane Lambiel.“

When Victor didn’t say anything, Yuuri swallowed hard. “I’m sorry… but. Have you seen his spins?” he tried.

“Yeah,” Victor breathed, and it was almost a whine. “Actually, yeah.”

(and then also from chapter 6: reimagined)

“Yeah, would you mind if I stole your true love away from you someday? The love of my hamsters is great, but our apartment says I’m only allowed to have three of them, and it’s not enough.” Yuuri flicks him in the forehead, light.

“Phichit, you don’t even really like dogs.”

“Yuuri,” Victor said in a pinched sort of way. “You’re calling Yuuko a dog?”

Yuuri and Phichit turned twin frowns of confusion on him. “No?”

“Yeah,” Phichit said, sounding sly all of the sudden. “Yuuri’s one true love is Vi–”

“–My dog! My one true love is my dog!” Yuuri interrupted, flailing his arms like that could distract Victor’s ears from hearing the embarrassing truth.

Victor brightened considerably, because he was a perfect human who loved dogs too. “You have a dog!” he exclaimed. For some reason, his excitement was underlined with… relief? Yuuri was imagining things.

“Who’s name is Vicchan!” Phichit chirped, this time before Yuuri could stop him. Yuuri wished he was just imagining things now. “Hey Victor, you know how Japanese honorifics work, right?”

Yuuri was going to kill him. Yuuri was going to kill him, right after he melted into a puddle and disappeared forever. Slumping forward, he hid his face in the table. Victor already knew how Yuuri felt about him, and had already rejected him. Yuuri didn’t know if he could bear the shame of Victor knowing just how long Yuuri has been obsessed with him.

“Shh,” Phichit soothed, not even looking at Yuuri as he patted his head consolingly. “Just let it happen, Yuu-chan, my sweet son.”

I would love to see that spy au of your au ;)

(this is from this post yes??)

#……#inspo#tmfu au#??#an au of our au#oh myg oodness#picture: vitya as the spy#yuuri as the quote unquote normal person#yuuri is just honestly thrilled that this cute boy wants to socialize with him#meanwhile vitya#is like !!!!!! yakov u didnt tell me my contact was HOT#yakov: i… i gave the intel assignment to alexei……… vitya he his twice your age….. vitya what..

we are currently having technical difficulties but look at these hilarious msgs that @thecookiemonster77 sent me

OKAY SO:

Yuuri is at his favorite cafe

he just finished teaching his last class of the semester

its a study of how pop culture influences and portrays political issues, with a special focus on the cold war and red scare propaganda

its his favorite class to teach

in walks: Viktor Nikiforov, world renowned secret agent, so beautiful he’s been blessed by Aphrodite herself, ready to get in & get the intel & get out again, quote unquote heartbreaker of the international espionage community

(he’s actually a massive dork but shhh yuuri doesnt know that yet. he doesnt know anything yet, except that this world-shatteringly cute guy just stormed in through the cafe doors and––

–– and he’s making a beeline for Yuuri?

“Illya,” Viktor says very seriously, “we have a situation here that needs your special talents. Are you free?”

“No man is free who works for a living. But, I’m available,” Yuuri replies automatically.

they both stare for a second

Yuuri, because holy shit this hot guy just marched up to him and quoted the man from UNCLE, yuuri’s favorite TV show???

Viktor, because holy shit his intel officer is cute

they spend the next three hours together, during which neither of them figure out that they’re having two different conversations

and yeah, sometimes viktor says something weird, but he’s also very cute and he blushes a lot whenever yuuri laughs, which. is very endearing.

they agree to meet at the same place tomorrow because viktor has somehow never heard of From Russia With Love and so Yuuri needs to lend him his own copy

(its a digitally remastered dvd and it came with a collectors tin and a poster. phichit got it for him for his last birthday)

yakov doesnt understand why alexei calls him screaming about how vitya never showed up.

“What do you mean? He says the meeting went fine. He also seemed…. rather…taken with you. Um.”

Imagine if Ice Adolescence came out just in time for the Olympics...

I know it's the Summer Olympics, but still

It would've been just as hype as when Blue Lock aired while the World Cup was happening.

Like, the movie was obviously gonna be set during the Olympics

Imagine If Ice Adolescence Came Out Just In Time For The Olympics...

Yuuri's even wearing the team Japan jersey from the 2022 Winter Olympics

this is what they took from us 😞

so much love went into making the show i cant believe its just...over. i hope they at least end up releasing what was made eventually or we'll get to hear what the story board was

Yuri’s Mouth Is Trembling, His Eyes Too Bright, Reflecting The Lights In The City Below Like A Thousand

Yuri’s mouth is trembling, his eyes too bright, reflecting the lights in the city below like a thousand points of open flame. For an awful, yawning moment, Victor thinks he might step a little too far to his right, get a little too close. He’s reasonably certain there’s a forcefield up here, but he doesn’t know.

For @farashasilver‘s fic for the Big Bang!!! on Ice, Glitter and Gold. It might not be obvious in what I drew but it’s a Hunger Games AU, Victor and Yuri centric.
