#<- because yes I still hope victuuri wins OKAY

[victuuriwriters]

Welcome to the VWC’s Weekly Bulletin, where we feature what’s new and exciting in Victuuri fanfic every week. Look here to get a glimpse at new works that have been posted in the fandom, updated WIP fics, works from our Collective authors, and what the admins have been reading this week. 

New Works 

Fields of Gold by Haro: The story in which Yuuri Katsuki wins everything there is to win and retires as Japan's living legend, because he's incredible and beautiful and he deserves it. Aka 'Yuuri wins all the gold', the fic.

Meet Me by the River by c0rnfl0wer: Every Kupala Night has come and gone without his attending, but now that Viktor Nikiforov is getting older and taking over the position as leader of his village, he has to start taking his life in a different direction. He wasn't sure whether he expected anything at all in this way. But when Yuuri catches his wreath, he finds the path he had always longed for. 

Historical/Mythology AU based on Slavic mythology and traditions, specifically Kupala Night - a midsummer celebration involving merrymaking in a few different ways.

Bound to Please by paxton1976: By a small twist of Fate, Viktor and Yuuri meet in the Katsuki's secondhand bookstore 'Bound to Please'. Friendship comes fast as they offer something the other has never experienced before. As they strengthen and grow individually, they realize the other holds the pieces to make them whole.

Canoe-dling: Not Prohibited by primavitya: Yuuri is a seasoned counselor at Camp Okenoko who thought he was in for just another run of the mill, shenanigan filled summer with his friends. But he could not have been more wrong as he’s inevitably blindsided by the newest arrival.Enter one Viktor Nikiforov, who’s got the charms and good looks to woo whomever he pleases, and who’s interest is instantly peaked by none other than, Yuuri Katsuki.

Dawn in St. Petersburg by Multiple_Universes: To some people it’s just another morning, but for two skaters it’s much more than that.

WIP Updates

Like a Fairytale by lucycamui: In which Prince Victor gets swept off his feet at a royal banquet and will go to any length to find his 'Cinderella' Yuuri. (And Phichit is the fairy godmother who has no idea what he's doing).

Fatum ad Momentum by maydei: These are the moments that were lost in the rush for the Gold, and the things that were built within them. A re-evaluation of everything, from day one, the real day one. From, "Be my coach, Victor!!" And how trust, friendship, and love were built from there. Through Victor's eyes, the story unfolds—the journey and experience of knowing Yuuri.

Doveglion by reginar: Yuuri Katsuki would describe himself as a dime-a-dozen poet with a degree in comparative literature from Todai and only a couple of publications due to luck. By some miracle, he’d received an Asian Culture Council grant and a Bright scholarship to help him pursue MFA Creative Writing in America. He’d been so excited because he would be in the same country as his literary hero, V. Nikiforov, writer of countless, innovative poems.

Impostor Syndrome by renaissance: At some point, most people with a childhood crush will imagine meeting their idol, and might even pretend that they're dating. This is the story of how Yuuri Katsuki meets his childhood crush, and how they pretend that they're dating.

counterclockwise by viktyuuri (Empress_Arisu): Life after retirement, Yuuri thinks, is quite a nice change of pace. Although, not so much when he finds himself thrust back into the past.

In which married husbands Viktor and Yuuri somehow end up 5 years in the past without knowing how or why.

Or: Yuuri and Viktor try and fail to keep their relationship on the lie low. (Yuuri tries for a while, but having a clingy husband makes things 10x harder.)

Everyone's suspicious, and really, Yuuri just wants to go back and have some semblance of peace back in his life, damn it.

New in #victuuriwriters

Icicles Melt in Summer (WIP) by dystopiansushi: Victor Nikiforov. Oddly, no matter how many times Yuuri repeats the name to himself, it still sounds beautiful, the r rolling off his tongue and the v melting on the tips of his lips like a mint. But more to the point, Victor Nikiforov, model for the Agape shoe and accessory line and face of Stammi Vicino Menswear, is sitting in one of his chairs. 

Or, the one where model Victor Nikiforov is searching for his raison d'être in Brooklyn, New York, and finds much more than that in a small, jasmine-scented hair salon.

and once upon a song (WIP) by missmichellebelle: A popular high school ice hockey star and a shy, academically gifted transfer student discover they share a secret passion for singing. When they end up accidentally auditioning for the lead roles in the school musical, it threatens East High's rigid social order and sends their peers into an uproar.

Between the Lines by nikiforovs: Victor doesn't have a problem.In fact, he has the exact opposite of a problem if he's being entirely honest with himself. (He's not.) The cashier of that hole-in-the-wall bookstore was cute, but he wasn't the only reason Victor returned to Sweetest Reads early the following week.

Or: Bookstore AU where Victor keeps buying more books than necessary just so he can continue to see the cute cashier again.

Rock, Paper, Scissors by nerdlife4eva: Victor and Yuuri discover the only chore they both dislike is vacuuming and decide to rock, paper, scissors (RPS) each time the chore needs to be completed. Yuuri is an ace at RPS and Chris sends them personalized charts to track their successes. All adorable Victuuri hell breaks loose! (These two have no chill, in basically anything!)

Some Might Call it Fate by Chessala: The Katsuki family moves to Russia after they had to close their Hot Springs temporarily. Little Yuuri (3) has to go to a new Kindergarten where he doesn't know anyone. He sees a picture of an ice skater on the wall of his new Kindergarten and is instantly fascinated. He loved ice skating so maybe he can be friends with the person that drew this picture. But how can he talk to them?

Admin Picks

Of Bright Stars and Burning Hearts (WIP) by Reiya: Viktor doesn’t remember the first time he met Yuuri Katsuki. This however, is what Viktor does remember…Part 2 of the Rivals series and companion fic to ‘Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart Aches’. One small change alters the course of both Viktor and Yuuri’s entire lives, throwing them into a bitter rivalry that spans across many years and creates a world where they both tell a very different side to the story.

so I’m pretty sure all of you have read Reiya’s fic Until my Feet Bleed and my Heart Aches and the sequel is finally here!! This fic, man. If you’re down for hella Victor angst in the form of pining, this is for you. (Although you should def read UMFBAMHA first)

urgent need of gravity (WIP) by RennieOnIceCream (Hitsugi_Zirkus): AU in which Yuuri is a make-up artist working in a small salon when he's suddenly invited to work for big time fashion brand Stammi Vicino right alongside its top male model, Viktor Nikiforov, and love isn't all glitter and perfectly-winged eyeliner.

Model Victor crushing on his makeup artist, Yuuri in badass makeup doing glorious things to a certain model’s face (sadly not kissing. yet.), fluff of epic proportions, need I go on? 

rubato (WIP) by indianchai: Yuri is a psychology major (who happens to play the cello) that moves to Detroit in his sophomore year of college to escape his ice skating past. Through his roommate Phichit, who is in their college’s orchestra, he encounters infamous pianist of the school– an overconfident senior named Victor who refuses to be an accompanist to anyone (until, that is, he hears Yuri play).

Am I obsessed with musician aus? hell yes. I could honestly wax lyrical about this au for a while, but...spoilers. Just, just read this okay.

Russian for Dummies by cutthroatpixie: “Are you a beginner? ”Viktor was not a beginner. Viktor was the TA supposedly in charge of this study session. Viktor spoke Russian. Viktor was Russian. “Sure!”

Need a cute fic to get you through the day? This one is it! Russian for Dummies is truly a fun and engaging fic that will take you five seconds to read, but will make your day 100% better. 

and I feel life (for the very first time) by smudgesofink: “What do you have in mind for the next season?” A reporter asks him during the press conference and Victor shoots them a smile, trying to buy himself some time. I don’t know, he wants to say. To be honest, after winning gold once more, Victor feels lost more than anything. What does one do after finally fulfilling a longtime promise?

In which Victor helps Yuuri with his skating, but Yuuri helps Victor find himself again.

A truly beautiful fic about picking up the pieces after a tragedy. Victor finding hope and love in Yuuri is wonderfully portrayed in this fic, and the writing is beautiful to match. A truly inspiring and gorgeous piece of work that everyone in this fandom needs to read.

Pliroy Week Soulmate AU

Hello everybody!! So here’s my participation for Pliroy week ^^ It’s a soulmate AU like we all love them and I tried to put my touch of originality in it. Long story short, this was first supposed to be a one-shot that grew into a very long one, then a two-parter and ended up as a multi-chaptered project ^^” So here’s the first chapter of this story and I hope you will stay tuned and follow it with me ^^ Here goes! --------------------------------

 Title: Love Is One Hell of a Ride

Pairings: Pliroy (and Victuuri in the background, maybe others)

Warnings: none for now

Rating: General (will change in the future)

NA: In this AU, the name of your soulmate will appear in your right hand the moment that said hand makes contact with the skin of the other person. It will usually be accompanied by a growing heat in the hand until you look at the name. And, for your name to be written in your soulmate’s hand, their right hand also needs to touch your skin. Simple enough right :P

 Chapter 1: What the heck?!

Word Count: 1811 words

JJ had always been really confident about himself.

Since he was very young, his parents always supported and encouraged him, even taking the mantle as coach when none of the others would believe in him. The Canadian man had been told many times how talented he was and, along the years, had wrapped himself into this bubble of confidence he thought was indestructible.

JJ had always been certain that he would, one day, win the gold medal and this year everything seemed to be on his side. The five-time world champion, Victor Nikiforov, was taking a break to coach some random Japanese skater, therefore he would not be competing this year. That was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Plus, JJ had been working like crazy on his new program that he had deemed worthy of a gold medal.

Yes, the odds really seemed to be in his favor this year!

But there was one variable he had not taken into account.

Yuri Plisetsky.

JJ had never really noticed the young man before since they were both competing in different divisions. But the Russian skater had waltzed into his senior debut with grace, talent and attitude and put a big dent in JJ's own confidence. Every competition where they were one against the other was a new challenge for JJ. He had to prove he was better than this 15 years old boy and, even though he would never admit it, that got him really nervous.

All the skaters this year had really upped their games, but only Yuri seemed to know exactly how to get under his skin and affect him. He really hated that feeling and that was why he was doing his best to return every hit taken to the sender.

JJ had never really been the best at making friends. According to some, he even had "poor social skills". He did have a tendency of being a bit of an asshole, but he was deliberately kicking it up a notch with the Russian punk. Picking on him every chance he got, trying to hit where it could hurt, even tipping off the young man's fangirls to the latter's probable location. He was desperately hoping to damage Yuri's confidence, thus securing himself of his own insecurities.

Was it childish? Maybe... Did he care? Not at all.

Or so he thought.

But on the day it mattered most, the day of the GPF, everything came crashing down.

Everyone had been amazingly good and, as he thought things couldn't get more intense, Yuri came and delivered a perfect routine, breaking Victor's previous world record. At that moment, JJ finally saw his confidence bubble explode and felt himself fall from his pedestal. Thanks to the support of his family, fiancée and supporters, he managed to get himself up from the ground and finish his routine. But he knew it wasn't enough anymore.

He managed to give an okay performance on the next day and, somehow, managed to land a place on the podium beside Victor's protégé and Russia’s new pride. People told him he should still be proud but, as he saw Yuri Plisetsky leave with his smug smile and his gold medal, all he could feel was his heart break into pieces.

After that, it was back to Canada for JJ and back to training like there was no tomorrow. After a few days of moping, he decided to pick himself up and show the world what he was capable of.

But ever since that GPF, JJ had developed a new interest. An interest called Yuri Plisetsky.

Before meeting him, JJ had never felt that vulnerable and he was almost fascinated by it. Any man able to intimidate the King must be someone pretty special and JJ was determined to figure out who he really was and, specially, what his weaknesses were.

Because JJ was resolved to win against the young skater. He was training like crazy, fixated on his goal. Some would call it obsession, he called it determination. And he would prevail.

During the year that followed, JJ and his fiancée had to break up their engagement. She had found her soulmate in a new colleague at her job and the spark was definitely there between the two of them. They had known from the start that it would come to this, but it didn’t stop JJ from hurting. Secretly, he hoped that they would never discover their soulmates and that they would live happily together forever. But it was another dream he had to give up.

Thankfully, they managed to stay friends and JJ was really grateful to still have her at his side when he needed her the most.

During the following year, JJ faced against Yuri in many competitions, some of them won by the Canadian, but most of the wins still on the side of the Russian. Though at the next Grand Prix Final they both fell behind Victor’s soulmate, Yuuri Katsuki, whom JJ was forced to admit had become a real force to be reckoned with in the skating field.

The next year went by similarly, this rivalry still as strong, at least as far as JJ was concerned. And in all this time he still had not give up his strategy to nag at Yuri’s confidence with pesky comments and, sometimes, harsh mockery. It did seem to, at least, affect his mood since the young skater didn’t let an opportunity pass to discharge all his aggressiveness on the Canadian man. This little war between the two had not been really discreet and everybody in the skating world knew about it.

Now, two years after that first decisive GPF, we find ourselves at the banquet following the end of the competition.

Everybody drank a lot, and things were going wild again. It had become sort of a tradition now, since that time that had ended in drunk dance-offs and strip-tease.

This time, Victor and Christophe were the two most inebriated and were on the verge of harassing everyone at the party, at the irritation and discouragement of most of the coaches. Poor Yuuri, having stayed far away from the champagne, was trying to restrain his husband while Phichit was taking all the photos he could and who knows if only one of them would be salvageable. Otabek was nowhere to be seen and was probably the only one totally sober. Even though not technically allowed to drink, Yuri had still gulped down a couple of cups of champagne before falling asleep at one of the table.

JJ, on the other hand, was standing far from everyone, trying to get as drunk as possible and avoiding to talk to anyone.

His mom had fallen sick shortly before the competition and was not able to attend. Therefore, he had to face the competition without her for the first time and it had taken a toll on him, more than he thought it would. Isabella being too pregnant to travel, he had to do without her support as well and let’s just say it didn’t go very well for the King. He had fallen short of the podium and his mood was at the lowest level possible.

Somehow, he managed to find himself sitting at the same table as one sleeping Yuri Plisetsky. Annoyed at first, but too tired to move away, JJ suddenly started to stare at the young man.

He didn’t know if the alcohol was to blame, but Yuri seemed really gorgeous tonight. His hair looked almost translucent, with the light above shining on him, and his skin was kind of glittery. Was it some make-up residue? Or was his face just that shimmery? Without really realizing what he was doing, JJ extended his hand and carefully brushed aside some of Yuri’s hair. So soft… Then he let his finger touched the younger skater’s face, softly stroking his cheek before resting his hand there.

Less than a second later, a strange heat started emitting from the hand still touching the Russian’s skin. He quickly drew it away, sobering up in an instant, concerned as to what the heck was going on.

- What do you think you’re doing?

The voice took him by surprise and he quickly turned around. Just behind him, Otabek was standing, looking at him with a hard look.

Still affected by everything going on, JJ tried to defend himself.

- I wasn’t… I wasn’t doing anything weird I swear…

He quickly got up, wanting to get away as fast as possible. Otabek moved slightly to the side, ensuring he was standing between the Russian and the Canadian.

- I don’t care. That’s close enough.

There was somewhat of an accusation in the tone he used and JJ didn’t like that.

- What, do you really think I would do something to him?

He felt almost outraged. He may be a bit of an asshole at times, but he wasn’t a monster.

Otabek simply shrug his shoulders still fixated on the skater in front of him.

- I don’t know and I don’t intend to wait and see. Everybody knows you hate each other, and you’re drunk. So, I’m telling you this once, you should really get away from him.

This time there was no almost, the harshness was definitely there.

- Is that a threat? JJ asked in disbelief.

The other skater didn’t budge.

- More an advice. But see it as you want, I don’t care… Otabek paused for a second then added, glancing toward the dance-floor, just be glad I’m the only one who saw you….

JJ didn’t need to follow the look to understand who Otabek was referring too. Usually, he would have defended himself better, but the heat in his hand was still growing, as were his concerns. Seeing how Yuri was starting to move a bit in his sleep, the Canadian quickly excused himself before leaving, almost running out of the room.

He didn’t know how long he wandered before judging himself to be far enough, but he finally came to a stop, in the middle of an empty hallway. He leaned against the closest wall before raising his hand in front of his face, nervous as hell.

Nothing on the back…

As he was about to turn his hand around, JJ finally realized which hand it was. It was the right hand…

No it couldn’t be! Anything but that!

Now scared to death to see what it was, but needing to be sure, JJ slowly turned his hand around.

And right there, in the middle of his palm, was written two words he could never forget.

Yuri Plisetsky.

As the heat in his hand finally came to a stop, it was replaced by a painful coldness in all of his body. Like a cold shower mixed with a punch in the face.

And right there, JJ started freaking out. To be continued :P

———————————————————————-

Yuri!!! on Ice

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character: Oh jeez, like all of them… I literally love all of them. But… um…. lets say either Phichit or Minami or Leo

Least Favorite character: I literally do not have one. I love all of them.

Character I find most attractive: Otabek like hot damn

Character I would marry: Phichit hands down I will marry him right now

Character I would be best friends with: Minami or Phichit

a random thought: how is it even possible to love every single character in a show, even the smallest ones???

An unpopular opinion: JJ is good and deserves better treatment in the fandom because he’s not an asshole, he just tries really hard to make friends and messes up or says the wrong things

my canon OTP: Victuuri

Non-canon OTP: Leoji

most badass character: Yurio, he’s 15 years old and he worked so fucking hard and ended up winning gold because of his hard work and him pushing his limits.

pairing I am not a fan of: JJ and Yurio…. just… no… def not for me…

character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): Michele probably, I wish they had done less of suggesting incest with Sara cause it was weird. Like it was small enough that I can look past it, but still…

favourite friendship: Yuuri and Yurio

character I want to adopt or be adopted by: I want to adopt Minami and Yurio, they are my sons

————————————————————————

Leoji

002 | send me a ship and I will tell you:

when of if I started shipping it: Leoji didn’t really start being popular until Guang Hong literally imagined himself taking a bullet for Leo, but the first time they were on the screen, my first thought was “omg small boyfriends” and it only kept growing

my thoughts: They are pure and they are best friends that realized that they loved each other and they just… they are the fluff pairing

What makes me happy about them: everything, they are adorable and they love each other 

What makes me sad about them: time zones and distance… they work through it, but I imagine that they miss each other a lot…

things done in fanfic that annoys me: nothing really, I haven’t found a leoji fic that I disliked

things I look for in fanfic: fluffffffff and reunions

My kinks: I don’t ship them sexually a lot, but I do like the idea of Guang Hong dressing up for Leo, in like the playboy bunny type outfits or short skirts and heels and stuff

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Phichit

My happily ever after for them: Guang Hong moves to America to live with Leo and they share an apartment and have a little chihuahua thats named something cute like Taco and they visit Leo’s family every weekend because Leo’s family absolutely LOVES Guang Hong. Leo’s mom basically already adopted him and loves cooking with him and trading recipes. Leo is a coach and teaches kids how to skate and he plays music in his spare time (maybe teaching kids how to play guitar too), while Guang Hong works at an animal shelter, taking care of them and helping them get adopted, and when he isn’t there, he’s vlogging. (A lot of his vlogs include Leo and Taco, because he loves chasing them with a camera.) He does a lot of cooking videos because he just likes to, and he’ll post videos of Leo singing and playing guitar, and tag/challenge videos. Especially when Phichit comes visiting… So many videos will be recorded then. They go to bed every night thankful that they can finally hold each other and be in the same time zone, and they are happy.

———————————————————————

Chris

003 | Give me a character & I will tell you

How I feel about this character: oh where to even start… he has no chill and I love him and 

All the people I ship romantically with this character: Mystery man (I heard Kubo calls him Masu…. something…. I can’t remember what it is and I can’t find the tweet right now :/ but yeah him)

My non-romantic OTP for this character: Chris/Victor. they are like… brotp but they’ve also definitely fucked before. at least once.

My unpopular opinion about this character: I don’t think that Chris is really sexy? like… I think he’s really pretty, but not necessarily sexy

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: I wish it had GIVEN MYSTERY MAN A CANON NAME AND TOLD US IF HE IS CHRIS’ BF OR HUSBAND.

my het ship: ????? um… Chris and Minako maybe i guess?

my fem/slash ship: Chris/Mystery Man

my OTP: Chris/Mystery Man

my OT3: Chris/Victor/Yuuri

my cross over ship: huh… um… idek man

my kink: that god damn flower crown my god

a head cannon fact: After the banquet, Chris helped Victor get Yuuri back to his hotel room. Chris was drunk, but not nearly as bad as Yuuri. Victor had enough to be tipsy, and his inhibitions were out the window… Am I implying that they had a drunk threesome in Yuuri’s hotel room after the banquet, and that Victor woke up the next day and got Chris out of there before Yuuri woke up because “hold on I called dibs why are you here?” but then he also had to leave so Yuuri had no idea what had happened when he woke up? Yes, most definitely, I am.

my gender bend: Christophina/Chrissy, her hair is long and wavy/slightly curly and it’s blonde with the underside dyed brown. She got hella curves and she knows she’s hot af and she loves to show it off. I also feel like she would make lots of gay jokes and reminds everyone that she’s a huge lesbian, which makes her girlfriend sigh constantly. She’s fiercely loyal and will help anyone who needs it, she’s a huge feminist and she loves cats (especially hers)
