Rudolph Viktor, the Red-Nosed Assed Reindeer (ficlet)

In these trying times, I’m coping by imagining Viktor Katsuki-Nikiforov putting a lewd spin on wholesome holiday songs in order to make his husband laugh/cheer him up. I hope you enjoy this ficlet (and can muster through the secondhand embarrassment). Also, I know it’s not even December…sue me. 

In case it’s not obvious, sexually suggestive content below the cut

—

Yuuri gawked at the sight of two….hooves?! parting the mistletoe-strewn curtains that had been set up in their living room. 

A familiar melody began to play from their Bluetooth speaker and he watched, stock-still on the couch as Viktor fully emerged from behind his hiding spot. Yuuri felt his mouth go slack as his husband began to prance and twirl around in front of him, wearing a very scanty, mostly fur-covered outfit. 

He wasn’t sure where to direct his attention: at the jingle-bell adorned microphone that Viktor was holding in between two hoof-like “sleeves”, the enormous antlers atop his head, the luxuriously soft-looking hotpants covering his lower half, or the three furry mounds vibrating just behind his ankles that bore great resemblance to their dogs.

Well…reindeer-dog hybrids was the more accurate descriptor.

“You know Dasher and Dancer and Makka and Vixen,” Viktor sang, prompting Yuuri’s lips to quirk as he caught on to where this ambush was going.

“Comet and Meni and Goya and Blitzen! But do you recallllll…”

His love drew out the last syllable for a good four seconds longer than necessary and then did a dramatic spin, somehow managing to deftly side-step a very excited reindeer-Makka (even with his extremely clunky-looking, fur-covered stiletto boots).

“...the most naughty reindeer of all?”

Yuuri’s breath lodged firmly in his throat. Naughty?

“Viktor the Red-Assed Reindeer, had a very reddened rear!”

While singing, Viktor gracefully made his way over to one of the room’s side tables and picked up what looked to be a paddle, printed with white, cursive lettering. Yuuri squinted to see what was on it, given how Viktor was swaying from side to side as he made his way back to the center of the room.

A frisson of excitement licked up his spine as he comprehended the words.

Santa’s Naughty Boy

‘Boy’ had been crossed out, and a taped-over piece of paper that read ‘Reindeer’ had been stuck just below it. 

“And if you ever saw it, you would probably shed a tear!” his spouse continued on, miming wiping said tear off of his cheek. “Because my ass is a damn fine work of art, if I do say so myself.” (At this point, the music had paused and Viktor had lowered his microphone, breaking the fourth wall by speaking in his regular voice.)

Yuuri burst into giggles, a soaring feeling building in his chest when he saw how his amusement had made Viktor’s heart-shaped smile emerge.

“All of the other reindeer, never questioned Santa’s role –” (here, Viktor turned to shake his head sorrowfully at Makka, Meni, and Goya, as if to convey his deep disappointment in them) “ – they never understood that getting spanked was Viktor’s goal!”

Yuuri hiccuped a loud laugh at these lyrics, which was followed by several others when his husband began to swat at his own ass with the paddle. Tears of mirth began to swim in his eyes as all three of their dogs tilted their heads in confusion.

But Viktor kept up his antics, somehow managing to simultaneously spank himself, continue to twirl, and sing (though this latter task suffered a bit, on account of how breathy his voice now was).

“Then one trying Christmas Eve…”

The music cut out, and Viktor broke the fourth wall for a second time.

“...after a particularly long day of winding Santa up and, frankly, pissing off all of the elves –”

Yuuri was now laughing so hard he was finding it hard to breathe.

…

Success! Viktor delightedly thought to himself, as he watched tears drip down Yuuri’s cheeks.

After winning the Grand Prix Final the last two years in a row, he knew that his husband had been disappointed in himself for his bronze medal finish last week. Though he’d tried his best to console him, nothing seemed to be able to penetrate Yuuri’s glumness.

Until now.

He puffed his chest out and put a hand on his hip, wanting to give his all to his imitation of the inimitable Mr. Claus.

“Saint Nick came to say: Viktor with your ass so tight, won’t you ride my sleigh tonight?”

Yuuri’s eyes widened and then he was clapping a hand over his mouth, presumably to stifle his laughter. Viktor was pretty proud of this rework of the lyrics; sure, it might have made more logical sense to go with the whole “ass so bright” on account of the whole spanking motif, but he was the master of surprising the audience. And his love certainly seemed surprised. 

Besides, this “riding Santa’s sleigh” version played into the very filthy conclusion far too well.

“None of the other reindeer got to crack this dirty code, since they had to handle Christmas…while Viktor took a festive load!”

For the final time, the music cut out and Viktor allowed his “caveat” to tumble out in a rush.

“And when I say ‘Viktor took a festive load’, I’m not talking about him delivering presents,” he wryly noted, wondering if Yuuri would be able to properly acknowledge this genius wordplay, on account of how he seemed to be fighting for breath. “I mean that he got spanked and stuffed like a stocking, and several good children all over the world never received their presents that year, on account of his and Santa’s horniness.”

The closing instrumental music came back on, and as the song wound down, Viktor tried to catch his breath, feeling a bit winded. He wasn’t the only one; Yuuri was hiding his beet-red face in the crook of his elbow. 

Around several deep inhales, he began to giggle when Makka, Meni, and Goya scurried towards the couch, the latter two poodles leaping onto it with such fervor that their antler “headbands” fell off. 

“What did you think, Santa? Did you like the song?” Viktor crowed, making his way over as well.

As soon as his spouse was in reach, he glomped onto him, practically collapsing into his lap. Yuuri stilled all of a sudden, reciprocating his hold rather slowly and turning his teary-eyed gaze upon him.

“Santa?! I’m Santa in this scenario?!” he burst out, looking like he was about to dissolve right back into a giggle fit.

Viktor gasped in mock-outrage and shoved his microphone in Yuuri’s face, jingling the attached bells obnoxiously.

“How could you even ask me that, my Yuuri?! As if I could ever be interested in riding another man’s sleigh!”

With this definitive declaration, he slumped over completely onto the living room rug, and it wasn’t even a second later that Makka began to sniff at his antlers with great interest.

“You have wounded me! I don’t think I’ll ever recover!” he crowed.

Yuuri let out a cackle and then hunched over, peering at him from upside down. “My mistake, Vitya. Santa threw back one too many glasses of eggnog. Let me make it up to you?”

He lifted his foot and began to wiggle it, enticingly, and Viktor sat up so fast that he almost toppled over on account of his antlers.

October Event Ficlets

I am taking today off school because I have been v v good. I intend to work on fic but I want to do ficlets too! So I do both! I am linking a variety of events, send me a prompt or three and up to four characters and I will make a little ficlet. If you want explicit/nsfw content, specify, otherwise I will not explore that territory.

Feel free to send any pairings or fandoms you think I'd know. No guarantees, but most of the time I will try. <3 Whumptober Prompts

Hidden in Plain Sight (FFC day 2)

February Ficlet Challenge, Day 2! I chose the prompt "pretend not to be dating". I was a bit stumped given I'd written for fake dating on the last prompt, but then my crackship of Victor/Yuri K./Yuko showed up to rescue me~ since the minimum word count is 200, though, many of these will be quite short... so i can keep up XD

Set some time after my fic winter covers everything.

***

Yuko understood the need to keep her relationship with Yuri and Victor secret. She wanted it that way herself for a long time; here was something only they could have, for no one else to even perceive.

She knew, too, how vicious the press could be. Hiding their relationship protected all of them, especially her, much as she loathed to admit it. Would there ever be a time when women and feminine people stopped being vilified for endless sins in the media?

Things Yuko, and by extension Yuri, learned the hard way: that she and Yuri couldn’t hold hands in public, and that Victor and she anywhere near each other might as well be radioactive. Luckily, Victor’s long history of dealing with the media as well as fast news cycles meant that media interest died down quicker than a campfire in rain after those first mistakes.

Strangely enough, the three of them together evaded the same scrutiny. Yuri was the most worried about the three of them out and about, but Victor insisted they should live their lives and have actual dates. Of course neither Yuri nor she could deny him.

The first few headlines resulting from a trip to a movie theater had Victor laughing so hard there were tears in his eyes. Victor's smiles and even chuckles were heartstopping on any day, so to see him this full of mirth-- well, Yuko couldn't help clinging to him just a bit, covering his face with kiss when Yuri had had his turn.

Victor's delight was a shield against the worry that wanted to coil in her stomach. And yet that worry didn't stop Yuko from wanting-- wanting to keep concealing their relationship from those that didn't deserve to know on one hand, and on the other, wanting to stand defiantly in front of a sea of reporters and shout on what they were to one another.

"I know, darling," Victor said when she vented about this to them both, not for the first time (for either of them). "I hope we will be able to show our true selves someday soon."

"I don't think..." She struggled, the thought uncomfortable. "You don't mean any less to me-- what we have doesn't mean any less just because we can't be out in the world..."

"It's like cake with extra icing," Yuri said, his smile pure. "Nice to have if we can, but without it's... still nice!"

Yuko laughed, giving him a hug. Of course Yuri knew how to translate what she was trying to say.

Even when, or if, they were able to fully be themselves out in the world, there would still be things that only belonged to them, untouchable by anyone else.

20 Questions for Fic Writers

Pretending I got tagged by @cricketnationrise!

How many works do you have on ao3?

As of an hour ago: 214. I just recorded a podfic tonight.

What's your total ao3 word count?

494,201. I really hope to pass the half-million mark this year. It won't take much. I just haven't had basically any writing energy lately.

What fandoms do you write for?

These days? The Queen's Thief, when I write fic at all. Historically also Check Please, Carry On/the Simon Snow trilogy, Sherlock, the Lizzie Bennet Diaries, Yuri on Ice, PJO, Boyfriend Material, Good Omens, and more.

Top five fics by kudos:

Love in the Time of Influenza - Carry On - Snowbaz sickfic

Face the Future with You - Check Please - autistic!Jack x ADHD!Bitty

The Aftermath of Angelic Assumptions - Good Omens - Ineffable Husbands sickfic

Man Oh Man, You're My Best Friend - Check Please - Zimbits fake dating

Nightmares - Carry On - Snowbaz hurt/comfort

Do you respond to comments?

Basically always.

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

the only soul who can tell which smiles i'm faking - a Kent-centric ficlet set just after Jack's overdose

What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Most of my 200+ fics have happy endings, so I don't really know how to answer that.

Do you get hate on fics?

Not recently, but it was a pretty regular and normal occurrence when I was on FFN in my teens. Once, someone sent me flames on 18 separate chapters of a multi-chapter fic in a two-day period. It sucked. But also, comments with concrit were so, so common for me to receive in my teens that I figured they were a normal and expected part of the fandom experience, and I have so much cognitive dissonance when people say they're not and never have been. I've neither given nor received unsolicited concrit in quite a few years, and I fully understand that they're not part of the culture on AO3, but two of my longest-lasting fandom friendships began with concrit on FFN (once giving, once receiving), and I think "this has never been a normal part of fandom culture" is an overstatement. I also think there's a difference between hate (which I've received several times) and the majority of unsolicited concrit that I've received. Not everything that's rude is hateful.

Do you write smut?

I have written M-rated grinding once and E-rated sex once. Not sure if I'll write either again. I'm pretty darn ace.

Weirdest crossover:

A Little Help - Lizzie Bennet (firmly of the Lizzie Bennet Diaries canon, not the original P&P) meets Eric Bittle at Vidcon and the two of them become close friends.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not to my knowledge. I know of at least three spinoffs of fics of mine, though.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Not to my knowledge.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Not exactly, but when I'm in a relationship with someone I share fandoms with, the alpha reading/cheer reading/yes-and-ing/etc can blur into co-creation. And honestly I've also had key alpha readers who I haven't dated.

All time favorite ship?

Gosh, I can't pick.

What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

My Queen's Thief fic where the characters all study abroad together. I have a detailed outline and a few thousand words, but I've had so little creative energy for the past several months.

What are your writing strengths?

I usually say persistence, but I don't know if I've had as much of that lately. Um . . . clarity, SPAG, and like--I have a really clear memory of what it was like to be younger, and I think that brings life to the stuff I write about college/other parts of life that I've already passed through.

What are your writing weaknesses?

Describing things. I prefer writing dialogue, but I'm also never sure if my characters sound like people. Realism in general is tricky for me--I get too hung up on logistics and then completely fail at writing people with realistic motivations. So lots of stuff.

Thoughts on dialogue in another language?

I almost never do it. I could maybe swing it with Swedish, although one time I tried and got corrected by a Finn (which was welcome and they were right, but it made me wary of trying again).

First fandom you wrote in?

I don't want to answer this publicly because I feel like the story of me getting into fandom/into writing in general is pretty unique, and I might tell it someday with my real name attached if I ever get published. (I just checked, and there are literally zero fics on AO3 for the book I first wrote fic of. The fic that I wrote is not on AO3, since I was ten years old and it was 2006, and I'm very grateful that, although I entered online fandom young, I didn't enter it quite that young.) The first fandom for which I posted fic was probably the wizard one that we're no longer naming. May have been Artemis Fowl or PJO, though.

Favorite fic you've written?

To Every Single Kid I Used to Be - an epistolary fic in which 25-year-old Jack Zimmermann writes letters to his younger self, one letter per year of his life. Featuring autistic!Jack and a whole lot of real details from my own life.

Anyone who wants to play, feel free to say I tagged you, but I'm specifically tagging @doggernaut, @eponymiad, @worldsentwined, @cartograffiti, and @the-knights-who-say-book!

20 Questions for Writers

Thanks for the tag, @they-lived! I'm not going to tag anyone, but if you want to steal this, feel free.

How many works do you have on AO3?

223

What’s your total AO3 word count?

1,782,322

What fandoms do you write for?

Currently, my main fandoms are Yuri!!! on Ice and Sailor Moon, but I've written for Fruits Basket, Kaleido Star, Harry Potter, Card Captor Sakura, Someday's Dreamers, Princess Tutu, Fire Emblem, and Super GALS in the past.

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Midnight Magic (Card Captor Sakura) with 415

No Longer Alone (Kaleido Star) with 167

One Kiss (Sailor Moon) with 152

Realization (Sailor Moon) with 152

Distraction (Sailor Moon) with 138

Do you respond to comments?

Yes, usually!

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Probably "Do Not Cry For Me" (Sailor Moon)?

What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Gah, that's a tough one when you've written over two hundred fics. Um… Maybe "To Be By Your Side" since the rest of the fic is so angsty, the ending is especially happy?

Do you get hate on fics?

Occasionally. The most memorable was years ago when someone wrote literal PAGES of unhinged reviews on FF.net because I dared to write a Setsuna/Mamoru fic. I didn't even read them all because it was just…wow. (Apparently, the person behind it was an ex-friend of someone who had contacted me about the fic in the past? Like, they had hacked into their account and harassed the authors the person had sent private messages to for some reason? It was a weird situation. I've since deleted the reviews, of course.)

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Yes, I do, on occasion. I've written all kinds, mostly het, but some m/m and f/f, and even a couple of threesomes (f/f/m and m/m/f).

Do you write crossovers?

Once. I wrote a Sailor Moon/Super GALS fic. (I did have some ideas for others, most notably a Sailor Moon/Witch Hunter Robin fic and a Sailor Moon/Kaleido Star story, but I never got around to doing much with those ideas.)

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Twice that I'm aware of. The first was in the days of A Sailor Moon Romance. I don't even remember which story it was (I'm thinking "Sweet Dreams"), but what was weird was that the summary they used had absolutely nothing to do with my fic, with a completely different pairing. I may have never even noticed they had stolen my story if not for the fact that they claimed it was a Minako/Yaten fic, and I happen to be a M/Y fan. In hindsight, I wonder if they actually did write a story fitting the summary and just uploaded my fic by mistake? That's the only explanation that makes sense. The other one is probably still up, since FF.net no longer moderates their site. They took my fic "Daddy's Little Girl" and just switched the names and descriptions to make it a Gundam Wing fic.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes, a ficlet into Russian.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Not technically, but back in the day, SuperKateB did give me co-writing credits on her story "Love Chain", since it was based on my original idea and I helped her with some of the plot points. I didn't do any actual writing, though, just editing.

What is your all-time favorite ship?

Chibi-Usa/Helios from Sailor Moon will always be my number one, but Otayuri (Otabek/Yuri) from Yuri!!! on ice is a very, very close second!

What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

"Metamorphosis", my fic exploring how Helios originally became priest of Elysion. I've been stuck on it for years and years, so I doubt it'll ever be finished.

What are your writing strengths?

Oh, I don't know…

What are your writing weaknesses?

Description, without a doubt. Oh, and writing kisses. I HATE, HATE, HATE writing kisses!!!!!!

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I'm fine with it, as long as it's somehow made clear what the translation is, whether it's by context clues, an author's note, or whatever. I've done it many times myself.

First fandom you wrote for?

Sailor Moon

Favorite fic you’ve written?

I'd say it's a three-way tie between "To Be By Your Side" (Sailor Moon), "The Bonds We Choose" (Yuri!!! on Ice), and "Blood On His Hands" (Kaleido Star).

[ashes0909]

[triptychgrip]

Thank you for enabling me, @yoibrainrot :D

Have a follow-up, from Yuuri’s POV:

Yuuri grins, now having settled into a good rhythm with the interview. 

His favorite question thus far has been “How are Yuuri and Viktor as coaches?”, which had allowed him and his husband to sing each other’s praises. 

People still think it’s crazy when they find out that he’s competing and coaching part-time for Minami Kenjirou, but Yuuri has seen, firsthand, how such juggling is possible. Plus, even though Viktor is now retired, given that he’s a full-time coach to both him and Yurio, he’s nearly as busy as he’d been a few years back. 

He leans over and begins unpeeling the adhesive covering question 8. 

“Yuuri and Viktor catchphrases,” he reads off, a bit surprised that this is such a popular query.

Then again…

Their friends tell him over and over not to discount the growth of his and Viktor’s YouTube channel. They launched Skate Fiances (now Skate Spouses) back in 2018, and since then, they’d discovered that even non-figure skating fans flocked to watch their videos. While Yuuri would like to think that a big reason for this is the way he and his love have become increasingly vocal about things like mental health in elite athletics, he also knows that he and Viktor have undeniable chemistry, with GIFs appearing on Tumblr within only minutes of a new episode dropping. 

He catches Viktor’s eye and grins. 

“Oh! I have one!” Yuuri blurts out, before raising his hands and turning both palms to face the cameras.

He begins to wiggle his fingers.

Then, he widens his eyes and raises each brow just like his spouse does whenever an exciting new dish is placed in front of him, or whenever Yuuri surprises him (which he likes to do, often).

“Wow! A-mazinggggg!” he exclaims, even affecting the adorably squeaky pitch that he hears at least a few times a week.

Viktor immediately bursts into giggles and Yuuri’s stomach swoops with the satisfaction of having coaxed out that heart-shaped smile. He joins in the laughter, knowing he must look ridiculously fond to everyone on set, but finding that he doesn’t actually feel all that self-conscious; Viktor just looks too happy to focus on anything else. 

“Yuuuuu-ri, you’re too good at that!” his husband crows, slumping over a bit to rest his head on his shoulder. “That’s probably catchphrase number 1 in my dork repertoire.”

Yuuri feels compelled to defend him.

“It’s not dorky, it’s cute!” he protests, slinging his arm about his shoulders and placing a kiss to his feathery bangs. 

Viktor gives a content-sounding hum but then seems to really think about what he’s said, based on how he reangles his head and squints up at him.

“Ok…it is dorky. But there’s nothing wrong with that,” Yuuri firmly amends a second later, blushing at the thought of what Yurio will say when he sees this. (Knowing him, he’ll probably claim that he’s too busy to watch, but their entire friend group will know the truth.) 

“And what about me, honey? What would you say is my top dorky catchphrase?” he goes on to question, internally cringing as memories of his most viral press-conference moments careen about in his brain.

Viktor perks up and scoots to the very edge of the bench they’re seated on, looking like he might vibrate right off of it in excitement.

“My Yuranya doesn’t have any dorky catchphrases, because all of his are inspiringly swoon-worthy!” he proclaims, clasping both hands over his heart so artlessly that Yuuri can’t help but feel anything less than palpable, fierce adoration for him in that moment.

“There is, of course, ‘Don’t ever take your eyes off of me,” which he never truly needs to say before stepping onto the ice during a competition, because he’s so riveting, I couldn’t look away even if I wanted to,” his love continues, the words coming out in a rush of eagerness.

Nyala is watching them with this gooey look on her face and Yuuri can feel the tips of his ears start to turn red when he spots it. 

“And then, there are times when he wants to suggest a change in his program that he’s not sure I’ll be on board with because of how risky it is, so he’ll clench his fist and get this sexy, determined look on his face–” (Yuuri maybe groans when he hears this, though he can’t fight his spreading grin, either), “– and he’ll be all: ‘Don’t you want to see it, Vitya?!’.”

Viktor catches his eye and gives him a knowing look, his mouth curving into an amused smile. 

“Sometimes, if he really needs to lay it on thick, he’ll swap out ‘Vitya’ for ‘Viten’ka’, because he knows how weak I am for that.”

And Yuuri, apparently, is weak to hearing all of this, because his cheeks are now flaming. So, naturally, he hides his face in the crook of Viktor’s neck, trying to ignore the audible coos filling the air. 

Viktor and Yuuri Answer The Web's Most Searched Questions

“I’m Viktor Katsuki-Nikiforov!”

“And I’m Yuuri Katsuki Nikiforov!”

They turn to look at each other and grin, attempting to speak in unison.

“And this is the WIRED Autocomplete Interview.”

They’re a little off on the wording, but what is simultaneous is the way they break out into giggles right after saying ‘interview’. It’s only been a few seconds since the cameras have begun rolling, and Viktor is already feeling charmed by the pink tint staining his husband’s cheeks.

“Aww, and we even practiced that a few times!” Yuuri says, now donning a cute little pout.

“It was my fault,” Viktor automatically pipes up, before letting his heart-shaped smile take over his face. “I started speaking a half-beat too late because I was too busy admiring your pretty eyes, love.”

Giggles and hushed whispers immediately break out on the WIRED filming set, but Viktor only has eyes for the way Yuuri’s lips instantly morph, curving into a pleased, albeit shy smile. 

“You’re sweet, Vitya,” he murmurs, before reaching over to hold his hand. 

There’s not much space between them to begin with on the bench they’re seated on, but Yuuri closes that miniscule gap so that their thighs are pressed right up against each other. Viktor hopes the audience is grateful; the slight tension his love is now holding in his leg will give the cameras a nice view of his immaculate, muscular thighs, outfitted in the sleek trackpants that Mizuno specifically designed for him. (After some sleuthing, Phichit had informed the two of them that Kenjirou had gone ahead and bought four different pairs.)

Nyala – the WIRED production assistant in charge of this episode taping – then hands them the show’s distinctive looking question tableau. On it, are Google’s top ten most searched questions containing their names. They’re partially covered, which adds to the fun: they’ll be taking turns reading them aloud, while unpeeling the adhesive covering to reveal each query.

As they’d agreed earlier, he will read and answer the first question, so Yuuri holds the board steady.

“What did Yuuri and Viktor…”

Viktor pauses to draw out the suspense, and then whips off the adhesive in one rapid motion, his enthusiasm almost causing Yuuri to topple over.

“Oops! Sorry, Yuranya!” he exclaims, feeling a bit flustered as he helps his spouse right himself and presses a kiss to his temple. 

Nyala’s eyes are glittering with amusement, so he aims a sheepish smile at her before facing forwards.

“What did Yuuri and Viktor do before they met?” he reads off, feeling quite pleased with this clear opportunity to extol Yuuri’s praises (and, additionally, to lambast certain International Skating Union officials for not recognizing how talented he was prior to that silver medal win at the Barcelona Grand Prix Final).

“Well, the short answer is that we were both competitive figure skaters, but the long answer is more interesting! Let’s start with my Yuuri, because my side of things is boring, not to mention quite sad,” he chirps, not even batting an eye when his husband begins to splutter in protest next to him (“Vitya! Five gold medals at World’s is not sad!”)

But Viktor feigns an inability to hear Yuuri’s counter, and whips his phone out. 

One of the first things he’d done after they’d met at the banquet was to look up as many of Yuuri’s Senior division competitions as he could, hungry to expand his personal archives with any video or photos he could get his hands on. By now, his love is aware of his meticulous culling efforts, because he wears a pained expression as Viktor begins to talk and flip through his photo gallery.

“Where to even begin?” he says, allowing his voice to slide into that grandiose tone that Yurio claims “makes you seem even more punchable than normal”.

“Since we only have an hour for this taping, I will unfortunately have to limit myself to the year of Yuuri’s skating career before he and I met,” he continues on, making sure his annoyance is plain. “And, for those that don’t know, we met in December 2015 at the Sochi Grand Prix Final.”

It’s a testament to their many years of being together, because Yuuri doesn’t even tense at the mention of Sochi. He knows Viktor would never try to embarrass him by contextualizing the event in a way that makes him uncomfortable, and, besides, his spouse now shares the opinion that pole-dancing into your soulmate’s life is a pretty badass meet-cute. Even so, it had taken awhile to convince Yuuri’s anxiety of this, and Viktor owes a lot to their couples’ therapist for that mindset change. 

“Look at this picture of my beautiful Yuuri on the podium at Four Continents’ in February 2015!” he exclaims in triumph, holding his phone up so that the camera operator gets a perfect view. 

Taken in Seoul’s Mokdong Ice Rink is a photo of an adorable, 22-year-old Katsuki Yuuri, wearing a shy smile and holding a bronze medal. Next to him is an obviously ecstatic Celestino Cialdini.

“Now, no offense to anyone, but take it from me: my husband was severely underscored at that competition and should have been standing higher on that podium. Well before he ever broke my World’s winning streak, Yuuri was commanding audiences the world over with his stunning artistry. Particularly, his dazzling interpretation skills,” Viktor states declaratively, his tone brooking no argument.

Well, almost no argument. 

Yuuri makes a barely perceptible noise of disagreement, but it’s enough to make him turn and bestow his most unimpressed expression onto him, as if daring him to issue a rebuttal. 

“Something to say, Yusha?” Viktor prompts, a bit goadingly. “Do you wish to argue with “Living Legend” Viktor Katsuki-Nikiforov, who, I daresay, might know a little something or two about judging politics and biased scoring?”

His love gives him a light smack on the bicep, and when he replies, his tone is prim.

“If you want biased scoring to be the focus of this question, then I’ll have to bring up your European Championships score from 2013, where you were unfairly beat out for gold by our good friend, Christophe Giacometti.”

An “oooohing” sort of taunting sound ripples around the set, but far from flustering Yuuri, he just raises a brow and sets his jaw. (Viktor feels quite turned on at the look, as well as his protective instincts.)

“I know how the internet loves to spin things but there’s nothing to spin,” Yuuri continues, dryly. “Christophe, himself, made a big stir at the post-skate press conference about judging bias, and he still regularly tweets at the officials from that competition…so much so, that two of them have blocked him on Twitter.”

Viktor gasps with delight at the memory of this juicy event and his spouse’s answering smirk is all the permission he needs.

“Ok, let me set the scene for you all!” he eagerly volunteers, sitting up straighter on the bench. 

He makes a big show of clearing his throat and Nyala – who, evidently, has the patience of a saint – hides her smile behind her hand. It’s a wonder that she hasn’t redirected their attention back to the question list, yet.

“January 2013: Zagreb, Croatia,” he continues on, in the grave “I’m narrating a documentary” tone that he knows will make Yuuri laugh. “Twenty-three-year old Viktor Nikiforov takes his starting position on the ice of Dom Sportova arena. Unlike present-day, his hair is much more lustrous, and he has not yet needed to start using thickening oil as part of his nightly primping regimen.”

Yuuri smacks his bicep a second time.

Hope you enjoyed this ficlet! I adore writing post-canon interview/game content featuring sappy/extra married Viktuuri, so if I get the energy (and need the distraction from my WIPS *nervous laughter*) I may expand this into a proper fic.

If you’re also a fan of this type of thing, you may like my story on ao3 featuring their joint appearance on Vanity Fair’s Lie Detector Game series. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever written :)

20 Questions About A Fic Writer

Tagged by @voxofthevoid who is pretty much a writing god as far as I'm concerned. The breadth of his works are wide, and he be doing things for the hell of it.

1. How many works do you have on ao3?

230 since 2016.

2. What’s your total ao3 word count?

841,020. I mostly write oneshots and short stories.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Whatever scratches my writing itch. I used to settle in fandoms when I was younger, but now I wander around and write for whatever catches my interest during that season of my life. It keeps me fresh. I found my insecurities were a lot louder the longer I settle somewhere because it's easier to make comparisons. So I just stroll around. It's a lot simpler life. It keeps me from chasing AO3 stats and lets me write things I wouldn't have the courage to do in other fandoms. So that's nice.

Currently I'm writing for Link Click.

4. What are your top five fics by kudos?

From Yuri on Ice.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Yes. Often, I leave long replies that are ficlet length at least.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

My mind tells me those fics are from the Harry Potter fandom.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Maybe you can tell me because I've written a lot and I don't remember.

8. Do you get hate on fic?

Rarely. I've written for ships people have issue with and have not yet received hate for it. It unfortunately happens to my friends and writers I respect, so that sucks. The only hate I've really received was when someone argued with me in the Harry Potter fandom that English Breakfast tea does not exist. And I was so weirded out by the comment that I just deleted the fic for my own mental peace.

Other than that, I don't recall any other hate. I have recieved passive aggressive comments, but those were from years ago. Overall, it's either positive or neutral.

9. Do you write smut?

Maybe once or twice a year. It's not that fun, really.

10. Do you write crossovers?

I used to.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not to my knowledge.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Not to my knowledge. I had a request once, but I don't think anything came out of it.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yes. Two of them for one fandom. My writing style and process is better suited for solo writing. I've tried co-writing with what I do currently, but it doesn't mesh well.

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Odazai. I don't write for it currently, but I still enjoy seeing it. Which is something I cannot say for other ships I've done in the past, so that means a lot to me. I might pick up writing for it again if I feel that's my season to do it.

15. What’s a wip you want to finish but probably won’t?

Whatever is in my "Not Currently" folder. I'm of the mind that if a story or idea ends up there, it's a doomed attempt trying to resurrect it. So I let it die. Yeah I'm haunted on a constant basis if I think about it, but that's just life I think. Nowadays I write stories I do carve time for, not ones that I want to carve time for. There's a difference.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Introspection. Rhyme. Character voice. Vibes. My willingness to experiment with my writing and challenging myself to strengthen my weak areas. Nowadays, I write the stories that I write to challenge my technical skills as a writer. It keeps me from feeling stagnant and I often start writing things I don't normally write, but this gives me the mental library of how to do certain things because I've done it before.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Dialogue. Heavy plots. Physical affection in a romantic or sexual sense. Fluff because I get violently ill every time I write it (like covid, the flu, it aggraviates my flares up and that's not fun). Angst because it drains a lot of me and I get tired. So, I realize that limits what I can write, so I try to be really good at what I do write.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

Personally, I don't do it. If I have a character speaking in another language, I summarize it through narration. If some words are borrowed, like a good example is names of food or certain phrases, I'm fine with putting that in dialogue. When I was younger, I used to italicize that stuff. I don't anymore unless emphasis is directly on those words.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Vocaloid.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

At the moment, nothing comes to mind. While writing them, I'm sure there was a lot of love because I willingly pulled the stories together. But other than that, I don't have a real favorite.

23. Stormy Night — Flufftober

For the October Ficlet prompts, Viktor and Yuuri from Yuri!!! on Ice, please?

thank you for the prompt! Yuuri waking to Victor clinging to him is nothing new. The rapid heartbeat and breathing and low whine aren't completely abnormal, except it's the middle of the night and Victor usually sleeps through the entire night. Yuuri has had to extricate himself from Victor's sleeping grasp on more than one occasion. If he's also found himself staying up to gaze on Victor's beautiful face, that's his business.

Tonight, though, Victor's eys are wide open.

The soothing sound of rain is broken by a clap of thunder and Victor flinches.

Yuuri threads a hand through Victor's silver hair and his shivering calms.

"I'm sure you find it funny, that I'm afraid of thunderstorms," Victor says.

"No," Yuuri answers softly, "Why would you think that?"

Victor closes his eyes briefly and shrugs, wrapping his arms tighter around Yuuri in the process.

"No reason," Victor says, which means there is a reason, but Yuuri knows he'll talk about when he's ready.

For now Yuuri is content to let Victor hold him and stroke his hair, meeting him where he is, content that they're together.

(When Makka joins them, whining at a particularly loud clap, Yuuri pets him, too.)

Writing Patterns

Rules: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

I was tagged by @twilight-town-zombies and I am not specifically tagging anyone, but I encourage anyone who sees it and wants to do it, to just go ahead (and you can tag me as the one that tagged you because who doesn't want to be linked to some fics they may have missed?)

He didn’t even get to say goodbye. -- Chapter One of Undestimating the Imp Act (Helluva Boss)

2. Yuri was going to throw himself into the Mediterranean Sea.-- Chapter One of 5 Times Yuri Plisetsky Suffers Around Gross Couples (Yuri on Ice)

THE VERDICT: My pattern is that, despite favoring periodic sentences elsewhere, I tend to end on shorter, pithy lines to hammer in the feeling of punchline, cliff hanger, or cap off.
