Morning pours in through the east windows of the dance studio, casting the room in bright, white light.

Yuuri stands in the center of the room, bathed in sunlight, trying not to wince, as he looks at himself in the mirror, and at Viktor just beyond. There are shadows under Yuuri’s eyes, a bruised sunset purpling his skin. He had lost track of time, lost track of himself, and by the time Yuuri could breathe without music to open up his lungs, he was the only one left in the darkened shop.

Do you have any advice on playing in front of a crowd because I have a concert coming up and I am a bit scared!

“And if all else fails, you can always do what I do – just imagine the crowd naked!”

Hi! How long have you been playing the piano, and have you ever been scared to play on stage?

His earliest memory is music.

Before the shape of his mother’s smile, and the timbre of her voice. Before the knowledge of sunlight and warm skin, there it was – music, the sound of it shaping his world, molding how he came into it, and what he would become.

Sometimes, Viktor wonders if he’s made of it. If music can be made into flesh. If it’s in his bones and his blood, like the stuff of stardust. Wonders when he creates it, puts his fingers to the keys, and opens his mouth to sing, if he’s carving out parts of himself to share with the world. Putting it on display, on show.  

He was barely walking when his fingers first found the piano keys. Doesn’t remember it, not really – not the feel of the keys, or what he created, or the way his tiny fingers stretched and splayed against the ivory. Making a mess of it, and maybe finding it delightful – the bright, wonderful cacophony of it. Music.

He doesn’t remember what it sounded like, or how it felt. But his mother, he remembers. The warmth of her, there.

She was always playing, when he was small. He would crawl under the piano bench and lie there and listen, feeling the vibrations of music through the floor. The deep, booming bass keys like thunder under his palms. Treble notes like raindrops on the windows while the sun still poured through the clouds.

She carved out those tiny parts of her to share with him, even before he really understood what it meant for her to give him the gift of song, to teach him how to access the music in his blood.

By the time Viktor was four years old, he could already play Chopin as effortlessly as someone three times his age.

He remembers his first stage, the sea of eyes staring at him.

The piano seemed very large, the stage quite wide. His mother sat in the third row, next to his piano teacher. Her eyes were bright like the morning sun, and Viktor remembers being held by them, as he took his place in front of the piano.

You’ll play beautifully, Vitya, she told him that morning, and he did.

His first applause was a standing ovation.

How long have you been playing the piano, they want to know. How long – as though there’s a number there.

Viktor pauses for a long moment, considering. There’s a distant look in his eyes, something hazy. Something that feels like an ocean away, a lifetime ago.

(It was.)

“Well,” he begins, after a moment, “I suppose you can say that I’ve been playing piano from the time that I could walk. Music has always been in my blood, you know.” He pauses, looks right at the questioner. “As for being scared… I have a trick.” His face transforms with a brilliant smile, and with a wink, he says, “I simply just imagine everyone naked.”

((Note: In Encore, "Yuri” is Yuri Plisetsky, so Viktor will think any ask about “Yuri” is about Yurio.))

Viktor and Yuuri would like to wish a very happy birthday to every Yurio in the multiverse!

(( I drew something on my main blog, but thought to post it here. Tagging all the Yurios I follow... I SERIOUSLY NEED MORE YURIOS FOR VIKTOR TO INTERACT WITH...))

Happy birthday, Yurio!

(( Omg thank you so much!! You’re so sweet! I love your art as well. ))

what about askpopstarviktor? i saw you did an interaction with them.

!!!!!!!! they’re very very nice and cool!! their artstyle is 1000/10 and they’re really kind and lovely

[askpopstarviktor-blog]

(( Thanks for the asks! If  I don’t answer your ask immediately, or if you’ve been waiting a while for a response, it’s either because: I haven’t thought of what to draw; know what I want to draw but it’s a super ambitious piece; or it’s a big spoiler for Encore and want to wait till my fic progresses a bit more before I draw it! ))

Hello! This is a Munday Ask! I'm just closing my eyes and picking random numbers w/o actually reading the prompts so please, if there are any NSFW asks, ignore them. So! 13, 24, 12, 7, 15, 8, 19 and... 20!

(( So, it’s Tuesday now, but I figure that I might as well answer this, anyway. Here’s the Munday Post it seems Anon is referring to!

13. What’s your name/nickname?

Kuri!

24. This is a juvenile-ish NSFW question, lol.

12. What were you doing before answering this?

Eating breakfast and scrolling through Tumblr.

7. Ever animated things before? Were they good?

Nope! I don’t know how to animate. I know how to make videos, and I know how to draw, but putting them together is beyond me.

15. What’s your favourite movie?

This might seem like a cop-out but it’s true: I don’t actually have a favorite movie, tbh! The only movie I’ve seen more than four times, which isn’t a Disney movie, is probably Red Cliff, but that isn’t my favorite movie by far. I just like the battle scenes and the epic Chinese drama. 

8. How old are you?

31

19. Name 10 things you hate.

Racism; sexism; ableism; LGBTQIA-phobia; classism; rape apologism; passive aggressive pettiness (especially in the form of vague posting and online drama); anti-intellectualism/refusal to use critical thinking; Trump and everything associated with Trump; and last, but certainly not least: the ending of Naruto (essentially, everything after chapter 699).

20. If you were the President of the USA, what would you do first?

Executive Order: CTRL-Z on everything Trump. (aka Undo all the things Trump has done.) ))

Do you have a specific song that pops in mind when you think of Yuri?

“Yuri, hmm?” Viktor pauses to think for a moment. “I think ‘Save Rock and Roll’ by Fall Out Boy and Elton John might fit Yurio well…”

“My name’s not Yurio!” Yuri objects, loudly.

I need more dreamsAnd less lifeI need that darkIn a little more lightI cried tears you’ll never seeSo fuck you, you can go cry me an oceanAnd leave me beYou are what you loveNot who loves youIn a world full of the word ‘Yes’I’m here to screamNo, noWherever I go, goTrouble seems to followI only plugged in to save rock and rollRock and roll, noWherever I go, goTrouble seems to followI only plugged in to save rock and roll
