Much like Welcome to Nightvale, I feel like a lot of people have forgotten just how big and influential Yuri on Ice was. It fully broke into the mainstream. It was everywhere. Evgenia Medvedeva, the top female figure skater in 2016 and 2017, had YOI plushies thrown to her on the ice and wore a Victuuri tshirt to an interview. Japanese pair skaters Miu Suzaki and Ryuichi Kihara skated to the YOI theme at the fucking Pyeongchang 2018 Olympics. The Olympics. Canadian ice dancer Joseph Johnson did the ‘J.J. Style’ hand symbol in the kiss and cry. Johnny Weir made me cry by talking about how he wished the homophobic world of figure skating he experienced could have been more like the kinder world of Yuri on Ice.
There were cameos and references to it everywhere. Everyone was talking about it. People who had never watched anime were watching it. It was so big it crashed Crunchyroll and Tumblr. Twice. And all that for what was at its core, a queer love story that helped pave the way for more queer stories to come.

It’s been a while, but here’s a new fic
Title: Unblocked
Ship: KyouHaba
Characters: Yahaba Shigeru, Kyoutani Kentarou, Kyoutani Michiko, Kyoutani’s Dad, Tsukishima Kei, Yanaguchi Tadashi, Tanaka Ryuunosuke, Sugawara Koushi
Rating: Teen
Warnings/tags: mild sexual content, mention of alcohol, swearing
Summary:
After his Sendai Frogs' game is cancelled, Kentarou makes plans with Shigeru to watch his sister's match for Niiyama.
'Some of the guys are going," he tells Shigeru.
"Why?"
"Because there's a rookie starting the game. Short. With red hair."
So they head off, fully expecting to see a Hinata support posse, but what they don't expect is a figure from Kentarou's past to also be watching the game.
And so the tension off-court increases exponentially...

Suga the cat burglar? Daichi the cat burglar? :D
Well, that’s the thing. I reckon most people would think Suga has to be the cat burglar, but I kind of fancy him being an off the wall detective, whereas Daichi is the one person no one ever suspects …
gives away whole story. you must all forget.
