hi!

[yokunaru]

[Some parts of the Rostelecom Cup are still a little fuzzy to him (probably from the lack of sleep), but soon after returning to Hasetsu, Yuuri had noticed a few new numbers in his phone. Huh.]

Is this Sara Crispino?

[It wouldn't hurt to check on his fellow skaters, right?]

HI!

[crispyno]

[This is Sara Crispino who doesn't like fancy contact names. The phone says "Yuri" is texting her. But which one? ]

This is Sara. Are you feeling well?

[This is a good question when you're not sure about who you're talking with, isn't it?]

It's great to see a Sara around! :D

[yokunaru]

I'm fine. Arrived safely back in Japan yesterday.

Did we exchange numbers after the gala? I don't remember a whole lot that happened after the men's free skate.

...and it's good to see so many Yuuris and Viktors around :D

[crispyno]

You've exchanged numbers with everyone who couldn't run away fast enough! And you've hugged everyone, even Mickey and JJ! And Seung-Gil, too! Finally he showed his feelings in public!

[It was like: Ewww, wut????]

How is your dog doing?

It's true there's a lot of us lol

[yokunaru]

Makkachin is doing okay! And I remember that. I hugged you, too, didn't I? Sorry if I bothered you.

[He also vaguely remembers Mickey fainting? Whoops...]

Is your brother okay?

it's like an eternal Valentine Day

[crispyno]

You did, it was like falling into a big bowl of pork cutlet, I loved it! Let's do it again when we meet in Barcelona!

[The memory of a fainting Michele makes her grin.]

Mickey is strong, he can't be badly hurt by hugging. You should hug him in Barcelona,too! If Viktor doesn't mind it. BTW how is he feeling?

love and chocolate for everyone?

[yokunaru]

[She's not angry. Knowing that makes Yuuri relax immediately. Then again, Sara had always seemed friendly, even if her brother tended to grump at anyone who got close to her.]

OK we can do that. I'm not sure about your brother, though. If he faints again he might be upset at me for making him miss your program. Congrats on making the GPF list, by the way! I'll make time to watch your programs later.

Viktor's doing okay. Mostly relieved that Makkachin is recovering. He's already told me we're going to work extra hard to be ready for Barcelona.

pools full of love and hot chocolate. And roses, everywhere.

[crispyno]

[Is there anyone who could be angry with Yuuri, except Mickey, The Lord of Grump? And JJ, when Yuuri doesn't let him praise himself?

Alright, maybe there are a few people who can be angry with him, but Sara just can't.]

That would be great if you could watch my program and tell me what you think of it. Your Eros program is so fierce and powerful ,and the way you look when you start...

But Viktor is right, the competitors of the GPF are all very good. Chris, the Russian Yuri, JJ...It won't be easy to grab a medal :) You'll have to practice extra-super-mega hard!

sounds good to me tbh

[yokunaru]

[Ahhh, while Viktor and his friends in Hasetsu have complimented his Eros routine before, hearing it from another competitor feels a little different.]

Thanks. I had a little trouble in the beginning, but I feel much more confident with it now. I'll let you know when I've watched yours.

Don't forget Phichit! It's his first year qualifying for the final and he's improved a lot, too. [He's so proud of his best friend, can you tell??] Everyone's training so hard, I definitely have to match them if I want to win the gold medal like I promised.

yoi needs a Valentine special

[crispyno]

[It's not easy not to be all smile when someone's texting with Yuuri.]

It's odd that you weren't confident from the beginning. Everything you can do now had to be there inside you...You're like the Sleeping Beauty who needed a prince to wake her up. And now you're like you've drunk a liter of coffee.


[No, it was unforgivable to forget about Phichit.]

Did you see the movie The King and The Skater? If you wouldn't mind on day we should watch it together,you and Victor and me and Mickey and Phichit and...do you know about anyone else who was interested in an all-skaters movie night?

[yokunaru]

[Considering the princely vibes of Viktor's Stay Close To Me costume, Yuuri supposes she isn't completely wrong about that.]

I guess so. I don't know if it's really been there all this time, but as long as I can portray the character well whenever I skate it, that's good enough for me.

The King and the Skater? Only about a hundred times. Phichit and I were roommates in college and it's his favorite movie. I know he wouldn't mind watching it again, and neither would I. Viktor and I can convince the other Yuri to join us, maybe Chris, too. I don't know about Otabek and JJ though.

Are you and Michele staying in Barcelona for a few days after the finals are over?

[crispyno]

But don't you think that a movie is totally different when you watch it with friends or fellow skaters? I'm sure that Yuri would make sarcastic comments on the plot or the romantic scenes. It would be almost like a real movie...Someone should sell popcorn. Do you think of Otabek, too? A brave soul should text him...

...Now that you've asked, I'm not sure about Mickey, but I would like to stay for a week. Isn't it just crazy that you traveled around the whole world but you didn't see a thing aside of hotels and rinks?

[yokunaru]

Probably! It could be fun. Why don't we put aside one of the days to get take out and popcorn and watch the movie in one of our rooms? I don't think I've talked to Otabek before...do you know if Michele has? I'll ask Viktor if he knows him, too!

That's how I feel, too. Viktor and I are making sure we stay a few days to go sight seeing this time.

[crispyno]

I'll ask Michele about Otabek! And if we can convince JJ's girlfriend to come, JJ can't stay away either. It's important to make everyone know that even though we're rivals, we're not enemies. This is the most simple thing in any sport, still there are a few people around who are not aware of it, and they need a kind warning. Like a movie night and fooling around.

And where are you planning to go? It wouldn't be good to run into each other when you'd like to be alone.

sorry for the wait!

[yokunaru]

Good point. Movie night sounds like a great way for us to all spend some time together. Have you met JJ's girlfriend before?

La Sagrada Familia is definitely on the list! I've always wanted to see that place. Other than that I'm not sure yet.

You don't have to avoid any of these places because of us, Sara. Viktor and I already knew we'd be running into other competitors while we're exploring the city.

No probs! It's good that you're back!

[crispyno]

Hmmm, meeting is not the best word, but I do hear her voice during competitions when she cheers for JJ. And if she's JJ's GF she must be a real party girl who likes meetings and...parties. And...just think it over, there'll be Viktor and Chris and all the Yuris and Phichit Chulanont and Gi...no, he won't...

[The text ends here and it takes a while before Yuuri gets the sequel.]


With so many stars around why would anyone not to come???

<3

[yokunaru]

She'll definitely be there at the GPF with him. If no one has her phone number, we can try to catch her at the hotel.

Sounds like there's going to be a lot of us. Can we all fit into one room?

<333

[crispyno]

Let's not be cheapskates, why don't we pay for one of the apartments on the top floor? I bet JJ believes he deserves the royal apartments, no less. Did you never want to see what those crazy lavish places can be like?

[yokunaru]

That sounds like JJ alright.

I've never seen one of those either. I wouldn't mind pitching in to book one of them for this. It definitely beats going to the stuffy banquet with a bunch of people we don't really know.

[At least he'll know most of the people being invited to this get together--it could actually be fun.]

How well do you know the competitors in the ladies division? One of Viktor's old rinkmates should be there, too. Mila?

[crispyno]

Mila??? Sure, I'll text her, would she forgive us if she was left out of a non-official party?...if any other girl would be interested...You won't mind if they'll be there, too, will you? You'll see that most of them are cool if you meet them in person, or at least cooler than the unknown people the official banquet is stuffed with...

...but do you think the coaches will let us skip the banquet? Yours won't mind, I guess, Lucky you!

[yokunaru]

Probably not. Yurio made it sound like she was really awful, but she seemed nice enough when I talked to her at the Rostelecom Cup. Then again, he talks about most people like that.

It couldn't hurt to ask the other girls you know. Do you think they'd be interested?

Why don't we show up for the banquet and then leave early? That way it works out for everyone.

[crispyno]

That's what we'll do. We'll show ourselves to the sponsors, nicely smile at them, then run away...Do you think you could let everyone know about the party? You're quite popular lately [and she knows why, but doesn't want to embarrass him] could you send a mass text to everyone on your contact list? I'll ask the girls if they're interested...but why wouldn't they be interested, they do like to watch pole dancing Chris...nvm,it's an old story.

Alternative solution: we'll invite the sponsors, too, and spike their drinks. Or vice versa.

[yokunaru]

What? Why would you think I'm popular? I mean, I'll send the invitation texts if you think that's the best option. I should be able to get everyone else's numbers if I don't already have it.

If it's a show from Chris the girls want, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. [As long as Yuuri isn't involved, of course. One year was more than enough.]

Let's...not invite the sponsors. That would just end terribly.

[crispyno]

I just called a few girls and they say they'd be very interested in Chris and anyone else who wouldn't mind to join him. I have no idea who where they talking about.

You're not saying you don't know how popular you are. I'm pretty sure you're one of the few male skaters it's super easy to get along with. If you invite people to a party they'll be sure that it would be a real, spectacular, once in a lifetime chance to feel that they are alive!

[yokunaru]

I have no idea who they're talking about either.

[Lies, all lies. He wishes he could forget all of that.]

You really think so? OK, I'll send out the invites.
