Valentine’s Day Fic List

Share FOURTEEN of your favorite pair or couple-centric fics in honor of February 14th to complete the challenge! As an added bonus, share five of your own.

This is a great way to help show your fellow writers some love and appreciation. 

Happy Valentine’s Day!

nThis is a super sweet idea! Time to share some stuff I bookmarked. Honestly, just 14??? I might have to do another list another day but here are 14 fics with Otayuri. (This won’t be in any particular order, and PLEASE READ THE TAGS of the fics. Don’t like the tags, don’t read the fic. But personally I enjoyed reading these fics I will be listing, in no special order.)

Two Steps Ahead by @kiazareni - Otabek and Yuri are best friends. Really. College AU with pining. Not yet complete but god, I love the premise.

Ice and Fire by @n3rdlif343va - I am cheating because this is a series of fics but I can’t just pick one from this set!

#LITERALCHILD by larkscape - The ending had me giggling.

The Ghost with the Hammer in His Hand by @kinoglowworm - This boxing AU set in the 1920s has me hooked.

Neon Pink Motorcycle by goldheart - one of my favorite soulmate AU fics ever

A Different Kind of Coaching by @nomanono - Not just Otayuri. Has plenty of kinks - I probably learned a lot of new stuff from this fic, tbh. But also has an interesting way of showing the poly dynamics.

Howl by Anna (arctic_grey) - How could two alphas work it out

Unsteady by otayuriohnice - This musician AU fic is one of those that really inspired me

Madam Lilia’s Peep Show by @phaytesworld - One of the first fics I read for this ship and it was really fun!

From Almaty With Love by @boxwineconfession - Also one of the first long fics I’ve read for this ship.

Welcome to the Meow Town Cafe by @lalionnebelle - SERIOUSLY CUTE. Must read <3

Amor Vincit Omnia by @authormagrant - because it’s a very interesting vampire + vampire hunter story

Shadow People by @aphroditewritesstuff - Otayuri mainly happens in A Cat in a Corner and Catch a Tiger. But I already loved it since A Lack of Invitations so please check it out.

Offbeat by @ashthe7th - A fairly recent series of fics. I love her take on alpha Yuri and omega Otabek.

I’d love to share more fics so maybe I’d do another round-up on the week of my birthday XD For now, these are some of the fics that really got me hooked and/or just really loved the premise so much that I think people should definitely read.

Maybe later/tomorrow morning I will do a line-up of YOI fics in general. Will probably include a few more Otayuri fics that I haven’t mentioned yet.

Aww, thank you for the rec and happy Valentine’s eclair! :D <3

ICYMI that thing I’ve been pouring my heart and soul into for a year is FINALLY OPEN FOR PRE-ORDERS (oh my god!!!).

I am so proud of this zine and how it turned out (despite the world working against us in so many ways). Each of the seven colors explores a different emotional facet of Victor and Yuri’s relationship, from fan/idol, to student/mentor, to rivals, to friends, lovers, and partners.  Here’s a sample of the introduction to the Yellow section:

Inside you’ll find some mind-blowing art and adorable-to-spicy ficlets that follow the evolution of the relationship.

If you’ve any interest in colors, queerness, or these go-for-gold Russians, I hope you’ll give it a peek! Pre-Order Link!

[nomanono]

are you gonna be reposting with your heartbeat next to mine?

Yep! Want to get the last chapter written so that it’s “complete” before I post it, and I also have some BJDs I’ve been getting decked out in period attire for some chapter illustrations ^^

I’ve been quiet recently because so much of my time and energy has gone into this zine. It’s my first one, I wound up being a solo mod, and just for bonus difficulty I got pregnant mid-way through the project.

SO the fact that it’s finally all coming together has me a bit gobsmacked. The work that the artists and writers have contributed is stunningly beautiful and I’m just buzzing at this point as we approach preorders.

If you have any interest in Yuri On Ice, in Victor Nikiforov and Yuri Plisetsky, in colors and gradients and minimal palettes, I really hope you’ll give it a look :)

This is my Nanowrimo novel this year. I was feeling a bit low and wanted colors and clouds and lots of love. I’m way behind on posting vs writing, but writing should be finished up in the next three days, and I’ll be posting a new chapter daily :)

(Thank you for the rec, @eclair!)

Yuri on Ice fic recs

Ok, it’s been so long since I made one! I greatly miss sharing stuff I read. For a while, I had some issues and wasn’t reading a lot of fics for any fandom at all. But now I am back, and this is going to be a mix of fics. As with any fic recs I post, please take care to read the complete set of tags, etc. We all have different preferences but I just wanted to share stuff I like/enjoyed reading the past week or so.  I know that not everyone reads omegaverse or anything moderately NSFW. Sorry because some of these things might have spicy content. I will try to post a list at least once a month or something. From time to time I do reblog some fic posts from the writers’ blogs.  But for now, this is my list. Enjoy! Waste of Paint by kaywaeeve Otayuri College AU. Flustered Otabek. Artist Yuri. I like that Yuuri, Phichit, Leo and Otabek are friends in this fic. I like the dynamics of the friendship. So aside from the main ship here, the friendship is fun to read.

Pillow Talk by magicalyoyo Sara and Mila and the stories they weave together. Beautifully written dynamics between the two.

the beginnings just another end by @undadasea Viktuuri. With cute Phichuuri friendship moments. It’s a chat-format fic. But I love the interactions here especially between Phichit and Yuuri, Viktor and Yuri. Of course, the cuteness of Viktuuri here is just precious.

The Animal that Burned Down by @vita-orlando Viktuuri. What if they woke up together after the banquet? This fic tells how it might have been. Black Water by @nomanono Otayuri. Travel fic. How friends travel. Short and sweet (at the end) fic. Rearranging My Heart by @d2diamond Otayuri. A/B/O. Royalty AU. An arranged marriage? Yuri demands a tournament instead. Interesting how things turned out. Precocious by @emmylynna Viktuuri. A/B/O. This is a long fic which I’ve been following and it’s a fascinating read on soulmates and A/B/O. Precocious has the skaters in AU where they are kids. Late Bloomer by @frilly-axolotl Otayuri. A/B/O. An AU where Yuri hides his being an omega and Otabek presents so late as an alpha. Interesting how things will be like. The Dichotomy of Love by @phoenixwaller Otayuri. A/B/O. Yuri is an omega on the run. Otabek is an artist looking for a model. How would that work out? Best (Fucking) Friends by @zeldaismyhomegirl Otayuri. Because I cannot resist reading a fic where Yuri pines for his best friend.

Hanami by @greygerbil Georgi/Mari. A rare pair. Such a sweet fic for these two.

A Road Paved Blind by @punktsuki Otayuri. Bonnie and Clyde AU. Organized Crime AU. First two chapters got me interested in what might happen.

[nomanono]

<3 <3 <3 Ahhhh, thank you @eclair! 

[nomanono]

Sorry it's late, but HAPPY WRITER'S APPRECIATION DAY!

WHAT DIAMOND WHAT y’alllllll what is with this sudden outpouring of love I DENNAE DESERVE YE. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 

Y’all are so wonderful (and such great authors too! Group hug everyone)

[nomanono]

hey, i was wondering why you deleted With Your Heartbeat Next To Mine?

I didn’t! My co-author had a tantrum and deleted it in retaliation for me not answering an email for 36 hours. I still have the file and will repost eventually :) 

[nomanono]

Happy authors appreciation day! ♥♥

Saniii! Thank you so much <3 <3 <3 I’m sorry I’ve been absent lately <3 <3 <3

“Well, where did you think Fabergé eggs came from?” Victor asked.

Finally! Some Victuuri and Otayuri for all y’all patient folks <3 A fun little canon + fantasy one-off that’s been sitting in the back of my head for way too long. Hope you enjoy!

[prismyoi-blog]

Introducing PRISM’s first guest artist: @radiuszero!

We fell in love with RadiusZero’s work the moment we saw her punk goth Victor, and the rest of her portfolio was an equally satisfying and utterly wild trip through the rainbow. Her use of color and texture creates an immediate and unique mood, all rendered in a clean, painterly style. Soft-blended hues and supple gradients mix with sharp points and angles to create a vast array of emotion - everything we could dream of for PRISM! RadiusZero’s art has it all, and we couldn’t be happier to have her on the project.

Until the zine comes out, check out her portfolio for some other incredible artwork:

Victuuri and Otayuri!

I got an anon awhile back asking if I was going to write non-victurio again, and the answer is still 100% yes (and there’s stuff in the works), I’m just deep in victurio right now. Appreciate all y’all hanging around even if that’s not your bag. I promise I will get back into other bags :D
