This is how it went right? I've had this idea for like half a year, then @viktuuri-week happened (y'all said that if someone made something inspired by the prompts even two years later they could still add it so I'll take your word for it 🤭) and I saw that the prompt for day 3 was miscommunication and, well, these two scenes happened because our two gays suck at communicating so it counts right?

Adventure calls! At first I planned to draw a funny short comic for my second @viktuuri-week entry (with an idea I've had since last year) but it would've taken me waaaaaay longer to finish, then I thought about a chibi illustration. I got inspired by those anime endings that have a super cute and cheerful syle 💙

I couldn't finish my @viktuuri-week pieces on time due to a mix of irl obligations and the curse of ADHD so I'm super late but hey, that mean's y'all get to enjoy the event for a little longer 😅
Anyway, childhood friends AU anyone? 👉👈 Prompt for Monday Oct 6 was First Meetings and this was the first thing that came to mind. This was meant as a one-off thing so I didn't put much thought into it but, uh, imagine Viktor's parents travel a lot and choose Hasetsu for one of their holidays. And the onsen is super popular and attracts tourists from all over the world so the Katsukis have learned some English enough to introduce themselves and each other and guide guests around. Also I love the idea of Hiroko having longer hair when younger 🤎

Woe! Softcore viktuuri porn be upon ye!
I wanted to try a couple of brushes that seemed good for manga-like shading :)

I've been working on this for days! I started it when I learned it was Yaoi Day a few weeks ago, happy gay to these two only 💙💜
As for why Yuuri appears taller, imagine he's stepping on something or sitting on Viktor's lap or whatever.

Hmmm.
Can y'all imagine Viktuuri as parents? I'm honestly torn.
Like on one hand the thought of them doting over some kid is cute and I've read some super adorable and well written fanfics (whether canon-compliant or AUs) about parental Viktuuri and the impulse to give your OTP a fankid is always strong, not gonna lie. On the other hand, I don't think a couple (whether fictional or real) needs a child to be complete. Besides, they come across to me as the kind of couple that values peace and quiet and being able to travel and do whatever they want on a whim and only want each other's company, maybe they'll keep getting dogs but that's it. Maybe it's because I'm childfree myself so I'm projecting, I don't know.
Or maybe in the future they become mentors/parental figures to younger skaters, especially if they are also queer. The thought is appealing.
What do y'all think?
Finished that drawing and got a lil bit carried away with the coloring 🙈
Bonus speedpaint video (that for some reason appears mirrored?) because I'm really proud of this 🥹👇
Get loved, idiot 💙💜💛

Y'all... Clean Bandit's Symphony is SUCH a viktuuri song...
"Life was stringin' me along, then you came and you cut me loose. Was solo, singin' on my own, now I can't find the key without you", HELLO????
smutty one liner fanart prompt #15 for victuuri 😏😏 in other words, right back at ya !! i won't race you as i'm not the fastest to reply to promtps, but i'd love to see what each of us would vome up with for the same prompt in 2 different disciplines ♥️
With pleasure! ☺️ At first I didn't know what to draw and then I thought I could make it a follow up of this other piece, it simply suited it too well 😂
(Look I tend to lean more towards possessive dominant Yuuri x whipped subby Vitya but some times it's fun to turn the tables 🤭).

Me when canon YOI doesn't give me an on-screen viktuuri kiss without an arm in the way: "Fine. I'll do it myself."

I miss cold season 🥲 (Seriously I'm dying here, please send help 🫠).

Fuck it, yer getting late Halloween art in January ✌️ Please enjoy sexy vampire, his cute demon boyfriend and his cute witch helper 😌

Edit: Forgot to mention this was inspired by an image I made with this Picrew!
One of my absolute fave things to draw is smitten Vitya just staring at his fiancé 💙 Sketch from when I was working on my illustration for @thegirlwhorideslikeasamurai, in the end we agreed that it'd make more sense for Yuuri to be wearing his beanie but I saved the other version because I love his messy hair so much 😭

Hey you lovely readers and everyone who is excited to read a YOI post-canon story! I'm a little late, but here comes preview #2. This time, it gives you a glimpse into training with the new rinkmates.
But first, please behold this absolutely stunning illustration that my friend @cosmiclion has drawn for me (thank you for your patience and putting up with my nitpicking 💙).
This scene is the first thing that comes to mind, when I picture them living together in St. Petersburg. Viktor left his home city and the sport over this brigde because he wanted to be with his Yuuri, and now he returns together with his Yuuri. I'm in love with how cute they look and little details like the sparkles in their eyes or the reflections of the sunset on the bridge and the dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral.
Since this illustration will become the cover image, you will see it everytime I post a new chapter, but with some text on it. I will include the text-free version in the story.
*~*~*~*
... and finally, here's the promised preview with a special appearance of the boyfriend hoodie from last week:
Huddled into the grey hoodie that now belonged to Yuuri, Viktor leaned against the barrier, warming his fingers on a cup of coffee. Last night, after the movie and an extended session of gentle love-making, Yuuri had told him that he could not wait to see Viktor skate again.
“I don’t care how high you will score, Viktor. I just want to see you on the ice.”
“And I cannot wait to skate for you, Yuuri,” Viktor had replied.
Yuuri was right to suggest testing our idea this season, Viktor thought. I don’t know how long it will take me to return to the level I was at when I stopped.
Near the bend, Yuuri fell on the triple Axel and slid several meters across the ice. Alexej and Natalja, the two pair skaters, who joined the morning training only during the first hour due to their odd university schedules, jumped out of the way. Viktor’s heart broke a little. Yuuri rarely flubbed this jump.
“Yuuri!” he called. “Go on to the step sequence. We’ll practise the Axel later.”
Yuuri nodded, his jaw set with determination. Viktor watched him speed up. Then he launched into a quad toe which he landed with a wobbly ankle. Viktor shook his head. I didn’t instruct you to skate all the way to the step sequence. Naughty, Yuuri. On the ice, Yuuri did the triple Axel-Euler-triple Salchow combination. He came down double-footed and touched the ice.
“Hey, Katsudon!” Yurio called from the bend where he was practising quad toes with rippons. “What’s wrong with you? You’re a disgrace!”
“Yuri!” Yakov barked. “Other coaches’ students are not your business!”
Yurio tossed his chin-long hair out of his eyes. “But his skating sucks!”
“Then be better!”
“I can’t practise when he always falls in front of my blades!” Yurio snapped, his hands curled into fists. “Why must he train with us? The rink is open all day!”
If I must discuss rink times with Yakov again, Yurio would side with me. Viktor chuckled. Then he glanced at Yuuri who was blinking in confusion. It’s good that Yuuri doesn’t yet understand Russian.
“Stop whining, Yuri!” Mila yelled from the other side of the rink.
“Shut up, old hag!” Yurio yelled back.
“Watch your tongue or I will scrub your mouths with curd soap!” Yakov yelled.
Confused about the exchange, Yuuri set up the next jump combination and hauled himself into the air just as Georgi twizzled past. Yuuri stumbled out of the first jump and steadied himself with one hand on the ice. He cursed in Japanese. Viktor stroked his chin. He’s no longer used to sharing the rink with other skaters.
“Yuuri!” Viktor called. “Over here!”
A frown crossed Yuuri’s brow. He blinked and faced Viktor. “But I haven’t yet skated the step sequence!”
“Yuuri, that’s an order from your coach,” Viktor said.
Blushing, Yuuri glided to the barrier. Their rinkmates had stopped whatever they were practising and were watching them. Mila and Jelena stuck their heads together.
“I’m thinking about rearranging the schedule,” Viktor told Yuuri. “You get the noon slots, I take the mornings.” Yakov would like that. He could supervise all his single skaters at once, although Viktor could hear him complain that he preferred to coach Viktor alone.
Yuuri reached for this bottle. “I’m not tired, I’m acclimating.” His eyes flashed with annoyance and determination. “Don’t pamper me, Viktor! We’ve agreed on testing this schedule before making any changes!”
But you’re stressed, Viktor wanted to object. Trying to understand Yuuri’s way of dealing with different kinds of stress was giving him constant headaches. Supporting Yuuri in silence seemed to work best but did nothing to curb Viktor’s desire to help. “Yuuri, what do you want me to do?” he asked.
“Nothing. Just be there and let me get used to this ice.”
“Okay,” Viktor said.
The fire in Yuuri’s eyes softened. He put his bottle back in the barrier. “Thank you.”
Viktor curled his fingers around Yuuri’s. “Now show me the step sequence before Yurio kills us both for keeping him from his run-through.”
*~*~*~*
Bonus: a funny comments from my beta, the wonderful @zeco5000 (thank you, you're doing an amazing job! 💜), about Viktor worrying over Yuuri, showcasing that he's still an inexperienced coach which, let's be frank, he absolutely is.
Time to separate coach and lover here, Viktor.
I'm going to post Chapter 1 on Sunday, 22nd December. It's called "The poster kink" if that helps 🤭
Some more things about this story:
⛸ domestic Viktuuri
⛸ realistic descriptions of figure skating (says my beta and I believe her because she's a figure skater)
⛸ more kinky!Eros
⛸ on- and off-ice drama
⛸ something round and golden
⛸ fluff, smut, fluffy smut, and smutty smut
⛸ bureaucratic nonsense
⛸ RPF re-enacting
⛸ kimonos
My beta said that so far, this story feels like an actual sequel to YOI with new conflict, old and new characters, and character development. If you don't mind reading a post-canon story that isn't an official sequel, I'd be happy if you checked it out!
AHHHH I'm so glad you like the final result! I'm always very critical of my own work and keep finding details I don't like in finished pieces so this is very encouraging 🙈
Anyway, if any of my followers out there are interested in some YOI goodness, are sad that there are only 12 episodes or just crave some canon compliant sequel I highly recommend this! 💙
Edit: Oh shit now reblogs appear in the Tumblr search bar too? O: Sweeeet, I'll spam this with my usual art tags so that other people will see it hehe.
