RULES, LAWS, IMPORTANT STUFFS.

i'm gonna try to keep this short, sweet, &&. to the point. i am an independent, private, &&. selective role-player.

first &&. foremost, i'm doing this for fun. i'm not here because i feel obligated to be, or to please other people. i'm here for myself &&. because rping is something that really helps me relieve stress &&. relax. that being said, there are times in my life where i'm surrounded by stressful factors, &&. during those times i might not be online all too often. if we ever have a thread together, &&. you've noticed that i haven't replied in a long time, it's likely that i'm in one of these ruts. you can feel free to send me a message &&. ask whether it's your turn or mine, but if you continue to pester me i'll get uncomfortable &&. might drop the thread all together.

secondly, i only rp with people i am following. there are no exceptions to this rule. i do not accept ic asks from people that are not following me. if i'm not following you, you can still message me, but only ooc. please do not pester me excessively though, and it makes me a little uncomfortable to be on a first name basis if i’m not following you. it's nothing against anyone, but just to keep my sanity &&. stay in my comfort zone. and if you message me and clearly haven’t read my rules, i will give one (1) public notice asking for my rules to be read. please do not send me an ask apologizing or saying, “sorry i didn’t read your rules!,” it makes me really uncomfortable. please just like the public post as a means of notifying me that you have amended your mistake. i'm not going to subject myself to the struggle of trying to be nice when i know my rules haven't been read.

i think it goes without saying that i am against godmodding &&. any ooc hate of any sort. if you send me or others hatemail you're automatically on my bad list. if you try to write my character for me, i'm gonna get really uncomfortable &&. likely won't continue to rp with you. check yoself. most people would inform the other rper if they are godmodding, but my anxiety just won't let me tell people that they're doing something wrong. so. :') please be conscientious of your own actions and take it upon yourself. i'd also really like to mention that vague blogging... really... irks me. if you are ever going to vague blog ABOUT me i would really, really just appreciate it if you came to me about the problem. also, please tag your vague blogs? or maybe just don't do them? it causes anxiety for everyone on your dash.

lol you thought this was gonna be short. so did i. anyways.

with shipping, i ship chemistry. i rp yuuri as demisexual, and leaning towards the aromantic side. he doesn't have experience, and really doesn't develop any feelings unless it’s with someone he really cares about, and has known for a while. not all of my ships are with viktor. my main viktor ship is with nebesniy. if there is a ship that is not with a viktor, it takes place in an au. please do not force ships without discussing it with me first. if you are feeling like maybe a ship between us would be cute, then chances are i agree with your sentiment. but please discuss it with me first.

i'm open to ocs, &&. follow quite a few, as well as have an oc blog myself. however, i will only rp with ocs that i am mutuals with, whom i have also plotted with. i won't go into threads willy nilly. i like to have a solid idea of where to direct my writing, and i would greatly prefer it if you have a character description that is thorough and fleshed out. a clean and organized blog is also something i prefer, though i understand not everyone has the materials at hand to achieve that.

please cut and trim your posts, or i will unfollow.

i think that's about it. if i've missed anything feel free to send me a message &&. inquire about it.

physical traits

• hair colour: espresso black
• height: 5'8" ( 173cm )
• body: slim, lithe build, but packs on weight easily. soft, flabby arms, with very toned legs.

personality

• likes: katsudon. viktor. dogs. staying in bed. long baths. hotsprings. freshly buffed skating rinks. warm foods. hotpot. fingers running through his hair. back massages centered along his spine and shoulder blades. soft plushes. sheer eyeshadow. nude makeup. pastel blue and pink. warm sweaters. skirts that skate over the tops of his thighs. brand new sneakers. cold morning sea breezes that bite at his cheeks. hot cocoa that fogs his glasses.
• dislikes: getting yelled at. having to pay for things. homework. cold weather that makes knees ache. the dusty flavor of protein shakes. waking up late and feeling as though the day has been wasted. having to diet for competition season. disappointing people. the world suddenly getting too bright, too loud. not being able to focus, and feeling like the world has a foggy haze over it. gloves that don’t keep your hands warm. hot drinks that cool down too fast.
• disposition: yuuri is generally a people-pleaser. more than anything he wants to make those around him proud--he wants to establish himself as someone that can take on challenges and succeed, and because of this often finds himself putting more on his plate than he can really handle due to this desire to make himself seem more competent. this, of course, leads to excessive amounts of stress for yuuri as he tries to accomplish all that he has taken on. his high stress leads to a lack of sleep, irritability, increased anxiety, intensive bouts of depression, a short temper, and him often secluding himself from others.

  he has a very small knit group of friends, whom he rarely contacts. he often keeps to himself, but he is always trying to be conscious of how he comes off to others and how strangers view him. he rarely acts without thinking, but when he does it is thanks to high anxiety and jumping the gun due to rampant emotions. he is generally very lowkey and is not one to be loud and boisterous. he does not like to take up more space than he thinks is absolutely necessary--this means he is often shrunk in on himself, and will not speak out unless spoken to. once he is warmed up to someone, though, a bit of that anxiety starts to fade away, and though he will still try to be courteous and quiet, he will be more willing to speak out about his opinions and feelings.

• nervous habits:scratching at skin or neck when nervous. clearing throat. tapping fingers. bouncing knee. averting gaze. rubbing palm with thumb. disassociating. overeating. forcing himself to focus on a single object or factor and letting all else fade from his attention.

biography

yuuri was born and raised in hasetsu, kyushu, japan. his family owns and operates an onsen there, attracting tourists and residents. as a child, his family was often so busy with managing the business that they had little time to devote to their son, so they turned him towards ballet. he met minako at a very young age, and grew immediately attached to her. she was able to devote hours of attention to him during rehearsal, and he thrived on this. he became her top student, and while yuuri would have been more than content to remain there, minako could not focus her attention solely on him.

when yuuri grew a little older and continued to prove himself as a competent dancer, minako decided to suggest that he look into figure skating. there was only so much minako could teach yuuri, and she figured skating would provide a good distraction for him when she had to attend to other students.

yuuri thrived as a figure skater, and immediately took to the ice. his ballet had clear influence on his skating, and he soared through the ranks until he found himself in the same class as yuuko. she was his first real friend, and his first crush. it never went beyond innocent admiration, but yuuri found in her someone he could confide in and trust.

the day yuuko showed yuuri viktor nikiforov for the first time was a day yuuri would never forget.

from then on, his goal became succinct and driven. he wanted to be like viktor, to be able to skate on the same level that he did. he began to put in countless hours of training. His devotion verged on obsession--never had he wanted something so badly, or worked so hard to achieve a goal. no matter how badly he ached or how many blisters he had, he kept pushing and kept training as best he could.

as a gift for winning his first competition, his parents brought home a spritely toy poodle puppy, whom yuuri promptly named viktor. “viktor” became “vicchan,” and yuuri spent every second not training or at school with his dog. he told everything to vicchan, and held the dog close during panic attacks and his first few bouts of depression. vicchan would lay beside him every night, and greet him every time he came home. they were close companions, and yuuri wouldn’t have given vicchan up for anything--even if it meant meeting the real viktor.

it was around this time that yuuri began to realize he didn’t quite identify as a boy, and some days found himself feeling uncomfortable in his own body. there were times when people called him “boy,” or when getting dressed, where he found himself squirming and wishing things could be different. he confided in vicchan about this, but of course, vicchan could not reply, nor give advice. many years in the future he would come to find an article on people who did not always identify as the gender they were assigned. this gave him closure he hadn’t known he needed, and from then he become more able to adjust to his own body--trying out new clothes, and experimenting with makeup. there are still times that he struggles with this, but he is far more comfortable than he had been as a young teen.

similarly, this was also when he began to develop his crush on viktor. his idolization of viktor steadily grew into something more, but he shoved the attraction down and did his best to ignore it. he had never heard of a boy liking another boy, and it took many years for him to recognize it for what it was. as far as he was concerned, it was unimportant, and was a distraction that would only hinder his performances and development.

despite the many hours that he devoted to training at the ice castle, he was still a top earning student, and excelled in many of his classes. this was in part due to a fear that, if he were to fail, his parents may not continue to pay for his skating lessons. to yuuri, this was a fate worse than death, so he refused to allow it to even become a possibility. his best subject was science, surprisingly, and he took quite a few extra science classes, particularly physics. he did so well in his classes, that he eventually received an offer from a university in america--if he attended, half of his tuition would be paid for, and he could seek training from a professional skating coach in the area. after extensive research and some urging from his parents, he accepted. had he known he wouldn’t have ever seen vicchan again, he may not have gone.

before he knew it he found himself on a plane to america, with as many belongings as he could fit packed into two suitcases. It was hard to adjust, especially with his limited knowledge of the english language. he took many courses on english to try and become adjusted to speaking it, and was thankful science was more universal and required less speaking and more calculating.

it didn’t take long for him to find celestino, and it took even less time for him to begin training under him. celestino saw in him a wealth of potential, and after a few calls home and several meetings to discuss a payment plan for his coaching fees, yuuri was his new student.

meeting phichit was a blessing, and something yuuri was eternally thankful for. the thai boy was able to fill yuuri’s silence in a way that didn’t leave yuuri feeling guilty, and understood the times that yuuri needed peace. he helped yuuri climb out of his shell by taking him out on the town, and introducing him to more people.

under celestino, yuuri began to attend his first major competitions. he was a frequent bronze and silver medalist, but every now and then was able to score a gold. despite his successes, yuuri felt as though he was failing--sure, he had his successes, but viktor was still miles ahead of him. the russian was winning gold medal after gold medal, headlining every major figure skating magazine. viktor’s successes were taunting yuuri, hanging over his head as an impossible goal. it ignited a fire in him, and there were several nights he devoted so much time rehearsing that he didn’t manage to return to his dorms until well past midnight. yet no matter how much time he put in, there was a nagging part of yuuri that told him he could never amount to viktor.

this fear held him back, and often led to him bailing in actual competitions. against all odds, though, yuuri managed to score a position in the grand prix. even he wasn’t sure how he had managed this, and in the weeks leading up to the competition his anxieties grew to overwhelming heights. he would be performing in front of viktor nikiforov, the top figure skater in the world. the man he had idolized for years, who had given him purpose in skating. this anxiety, accompanied by the death of his beloved dog led to, in yuuri’s opinion, his greatest failure. his shame from winning last place at the grand prix debilitated him for the next few months, and he often found himself considering quitting skating altogether. he had had his time in the limelight, had gotten a chance to prove himself in front of viktor nikiforov himself--and had failed.

for several months, he stopped attending his training, and devoted his time instead to finishing university. he graduated with a bs, and accepted his loss at nationals. a spontaneous decision led to him cancelling his coaching with celestino, and buying a plane ticket home. as far as he was concerned, he was done. he could work at the onsen and stay at home, pay his respects to vicchan, and fade into a failed legacy.

the rest, of course, is history.
