A gift for @lovelytitania! Here’s a little ficlet about Yuuri thirsting for Durmstrang!Vitya.
–
A slight bubbling at the center of the water’s surface was the only sign before a ship’s mast broke through the surface of the Black Lake and scattered glistening droplets into the air. Yuuri looked on in amazement with the other Hogwarts students as the Durmstrang ship rose from the lake and sailed to shore.
The first person onto the ship’s gangway was Headmaster Yakov Feltsman, a stern looking man with a strong jawline. Yuuri had only ever heard of Durmstrang’s headmaster, who was infamous for both his magical prowess and strict but efficient teaching methods. Yakov certainly looked as impressive as he was said to be. Stepping to join alongside him was his wife, the equally famous Professor Lilia Baranovskaya, known around the world for both her talent in charms and her beauty.
As they walked down together, the Durmstrang students filed out in pairs. Once they were all assembled on the field, the Hogwarts Headmaster made a show of welcoming Yakov and Lilia, as well as the rest of the potential Triwizard competitors. But Yuuri, despite also being a seventh year intent on entering the Triwizard Tournament, paid no attention to this.
A flash of light had caught Yuuri’s eye earlier, while the Durmstrang students were disembarking the ship. Or rather, it was the light that gleamed off one of the students’ hair. Oh. Yuuri’s breath caught as he focused in on the student. The boy, man really, had flowing silver hair that sparkled in the sunlight. He’s beautiful. Yuuri thought that this was perhaps the most gorgeous person he had ever seen, with a handsome face and (hopefully) silky hair. Yuuri wondered if his hair was as soft as it looked, then blushed. And even though he was wearing the same fur coat as every other Durmstrang student was, he pulled it off much better.
Oh. Yuuri’s breath caught once more as he made eye contact. His eyes sparkle. He had bright blue eyes the color of a clear lake on a summer’s day, and they were perfect, just like the rest of him. Yuuri felt his heart beat faster but maintained eye contact with this lovely stranger.
Suddenly, there was movement around Yuuri. The headmaster had finished his speech and the Hogwarts students were dispersing, as were the Durmstrang students. Oh. Yuuri would soon be separated from the most handsome man he had ever seen. But the man’s lip twitched into a gentle smile, even as he held Yuuri’s stare, and Yuuri couldn’t be sad with such beauty gracing him. Yuuri smiled back just before the man clutched his coat and turned to follow the rest of the Durmstrang contingent to their living quarters.
Yuuri didn’t even know this mysterious student’s name, but began counting the seconds until they met again.
Phichit giggled as he watched his best friend become completely enamored with one of the Durmstrang students. He considered poking Yuuri, or perhaps waving a hand in front of Yuuri’s face, but couldn’t bear to break the moment. Instead, he began plotting ways the two might be able to meet.
Oh. How do Viktor and Yuuri meet? You’ll have to wait and see ;)
