The existence of a permament ice rink in Bellevue was, without a doubt, one of the best things to come from moving to this new country. He had no need to wait for winter in order to indulge in the enjoyable activity of skating, and even more, in the act of gathering the attention of others with his skills.
Now, that might have been easier if it wasn’t for the fact that a famous skater worked at that exact rink, gathering the attention of people around him even without trying. So annoying.
Now, with how much he was -unconsciously- glaring, it might be only a matter of time for the other to realize he was being observed.

I feel like--- it was said somewhere that she has trouble trusting adults and the like? Or am I thinking of another muse? My memory is so shotty you can’t believe. Whichever the case, Dongmin is a guy who would help someone out in trouble. He’s also the type of person who just gets along with a lot of people so as long as they don’t pick fights with him. He’s rather harmless-- unless you pick a fight with him. I can see him just watching out for her if she’s ever in trouble.)

Taken from meme: [x] ||Accepting|| ((All y’all clearly hate me, don’t you? //sob))
As far as my memory goes we don’t have many (or any) interactions and I actually... don’t know Minako so this is going to be less in depth than the other meme entries were. I’ll try my best though. Sorries!
@crimsxnheadphones
my opinion on;
character in general: Yuuri Katsuki, the timid skater who pretty much kinda learns to later be like YAAAAHHHHHHH I GOT THIS. I AM THE SEXY KATSUDON AND VIKTOR WANTS ME. YOU ALL WANT ME BUT YOU CAN’T HAVE-- only Viktor can have. Okay jokes aside he was a timid guy to start who has major self-confidence issues. He struggles to get himself out there. This does slowly change once Viktor becomes his coach. He learns to strive even harder towards his goal. He can’t let his coach down. He wants to make him proud. He has to get out there and be the best he can be. He CAN do this, he WILL prove those people wrong who were saying mean things about him.
He’ll prove them all that he is not a waste of time. Viktor did not make a mistake. He’s not a mistake. He progresses a lot, this guy. I can’t say that he’s not still timid, because he can be, but it’s just a bit less compared to the very start. He learns to have more confidence, and has more faith in his abilities and his stamina. Pushing himself to the limits. A very emotional guy, but his insecurities often hold him back. A guy full of passion and vigor. One who knows he can get better. He may get discouraged and he may give up, but eventually he does rise up once more. He’s learned from the past. He will work off it and make himself better, he will be a new Yuuri Katsuki. A very admirable character, tbh. One thing that’s interesting about him is that while he often put himself down, there were many who saw the potential in him. Could see he was/could be great. He’s surrounded by love and support. This of course, is just my opinion and in no way is me saying this is the only way to see him. If anyone else sees him differently, that’s totally okay.
how they play them: So when Yuuri interacts with a lot of people, he comes off as being a bit... calm? Like he’s a neutral kind of person, when in fact he may be the opposite on the inside. He’s not overly happy when he talks to people, but he’s not like an angry hissy-cat either (//coughs). So that part of him, I feel is kept in line.
He can however get really nervous and or shy when it comes to his own work, so he can speak of himself with a bit of a humble nature and a smidgen of humility(?) It’s like a big part of who he is. The way he thinks about himself and his work. He can’t, when not on the ice, be all pompous and puff out his chest. No, he knows how to be modest. He knows humility. I like how that nature does show up a bit in some of the interacts you had. There wasn’t much for me to work off of so forgive me. He is in fact used to being hated, so I can definitely see him kind of taking things with stride. He has to. So being glared at and reacting the way he did, I can believe that.
The Drabble for the Rallies thing, it’s hard for me to explain, but the general feel of it seemed a bit depressing or just very self-reflective? It just captures that general insecurity feel of his. However, he still has firm beliefs. He stands firm when it’s his own beliefs, and above all else, Viktor has always been a huge figure in his life. The way he ended on a positive note thinking of Viktor, to me, just really says ‘Yuuri Katsuki’. Like I said, there wasn’t many interactions for me to work off of, but I do believe you are doing well.
the mun: So I don’t think we’ve talked before ooc, so I can’t say all too much. I did look through some tags and I can see that there is a part that is meticulous and organized in the way that you use multiple tags. You don’t just stick with the required tags, you have your own system. It does take effort to do to come up with a system and to remember them all. It shows a bit of discipline. I also saw a few like more jokey tags as well so it also shows that you can be serious but also be like ‘YEYEYEY OKAY GAME TIME. LET’S GOOO. LETS HAVE FUUNNNNNNNN’
I do saw that you pretty much never failed to state if anything needs changed, just hit you up. Shows flexibility in one’s character and the willingness to go along with others, also consideration because it’s nice to just say so to everyone, rather than just stating it once and expecting for everyone to remember this being the case that they’re allowed to just hit you up if they want something changed. That’s how I figure it, anyways.
Now with this meme, there is one thing that I can definitely say: You’ve got some guts. I could be wrong but I don’t think we’ve interacted at all. Maybe sparingly with meme days, but none have ever gone past that and were made into threads. So truly, it takes a lot of daringness and guts to send in a meme like this, I think. Especially when a big part of it is how I think of the mun and how they write. Hard to really say if you’ve never interacted-- ya know? Still, you sent it in regardless and that’s real gutsy. I like that. KUDOS to you, friend! I can only hope what i’m writing is satisfactory. OTL
do i;
follow them: Yeyep
rp with them: I don’t believe so. I don’t think we did prior to hiatus either, but I could be wrong? My memory is faulty.
want to rp with them: SURE SURE! Always up for something new. Might I suggest @heromanvasco or @friendlyoceangiant for more friendly muses? Ponsol is (fake) friendly but would be able to be civil with Yuuri. He is a famous guy after all. Gotta play nice. Super hard level is trying to interact with Shugarl who is kinda like a dead fish. What are emotions? What is... kindness? How do you derive that?
ship their character with mine: Naaaahhhhhhh let’s keep Yuuri with his special someone, yeye?
what is my;
overall opinion: So overall, I think you are a person who is reaaaal gutsy, and might not be too afraid to go out there? I must say i’m interested in the having sent in two urls thing. Perhaps because you are interested in threading with me with those characters? Maybe that is the case and you saw Izuzu doing the same thing and so knew I’d be okay with it and was like ‘well here goes nothing~’. Whichever the case, it’s good to see someone who is willing to get themselves out there. I felt as though the part of asking whether or not i’m still accepting shows consideration. I did a good number of the same meme and it takes a lot of effort. My back hurts so much like you don’t understand. So it’s nice to see someone taking that into consideration and asking in case. Again, that’s literally how I see it.
So all in all, from what I could gather, you seem like someone who is pretty open-minded and are willing to do what you think needs done to get some progress. Very admirable. I unfortunately don’t know Minako, so I can’t really say much about her characterization. I could speak on Yuuri but there wasn’t much on the blog for me to work off of. Either way, from what I have seen, I can see you put thought into what you do, and you try to put in as much elements as you can about a character in your characterization. I believe you to be doing an excellent job with your writing. Keep it up.
my opinion on;
character in general: I actually don’t... know who she is really? I can’t really have an opinion on someone that I don’t... know. Though I guess that’s not entirely correct as I did play with a Minako once over on my main RP blog. The way she was played there was that she was a very upbeat girl who was very friendly, and to me she seemed like a very honest individual. Tells it like it is. I did a very quick read through on her personality and got that she’s a character full of energy and life? Though she apparently hides her suffering and her burdens. So she’s not just a happy character. I’d guess that perhaps while she’s a happy and active character, a lot of it is done in order to make herself be able to push through her pain. A distaction if you would. That’s my guess, anyways. Her visuals do remind me a bit of Haru Miura, who is my queen btw, therefore she’s most definitely cool in my book already.
how they play them: So my very very quick researching shows that while she’s very cheerful, upbeat and funny, she can also be very sarcastic or serious? So it seems like she’s a character who plays by her own emotions, and is a whole book of possibilities. We’ve never threaded so I took the liberties of just skimming through some of your interactions and so I can see there are times when she’s very cheerful and playful and other times where she is not so happy and is having an outburst or being serious. In other words, like a regular human being. Not 2-dimensional in their personality.
She seems also rather cute the way she’s written? I honestly can’t really say very much since... I don’t really know much about the character in general but I can see that you do like your character a lot and you write her as one would a young girl. Full of life and vigor. Willing to be a bit brave, to get out there and be honest to herself but sometimes also reel back a bit out of shyness and the like. This honestly really doesn’t mean much from me as I don’t know Minako, but I feel as though you were doing a good job with her.
the mun: I dun wanna repeat
do i;
follow them: Very sure I am. rp with them: Nope.want to rp with them: Just like in the last section, SURE SURE! I’m always up for new threads. I may not know anything about her, but i’m always up for something new.ship their character with mine: Hard to really say I’d ship with a character I don’t know right? As for Ponsol, he’s currently... busy being used as a plot device for my evil plans... muwahahhahaha.
what is my;
overall opinion: MORE REPEATS
**Note: Mun’s answer are all to be completely honest. Don’t send url if you don’t want brutal honesty.
It’s always been a joy to stare and watch as his fiancé glides across the ice with grace to rival the likeness of a ballerina, blades cutting perfectly through the blue line as he stops to rest. The rink is dark, save for a few overhead lights that faintly illuminate the space, but it doesn’t stop Viktor from keeping his focus on the other man. Viktor has always been intrigued by the way Yuuri skates, how the man dances in perfect unison to the music of his programs and entices anyone caring to glance his way -- especially Viktor. Even now, during a small warm up session, the Russian can’t seem to take his eyes away from Yuuri, the vibrating annoyance in his pocket not enough to tear his focus away.
The way he moves is... breathtaking, to say the least. A hand comes up to rest at his chin, and his crystal blue eyes catch a glimpse of the golden ring that shines on his finger -- a testiment of how far their relationship has come in the past few years. The edges of his lips curl up into a soft smile, his focus on Yuuri taken off long enough for the man to notice his fiancé skating his way.

Kenjirou was running at full speed on his skates. Not a good idea, which he had just figured out now. But it was already too late, and there was nothing that could stop his momentum. Except maybe for the ice.
He landed face first onto the ice, sliding a full metre before coming to a stop. There weren’t as many people on the coliseum ice rink, but there were still enough that he felt embarrassed about himself. He, Kenjirou Minami, was training to be a professional skater yet he couldn’t even get on the ice properly. His mood instantly plummeted, and he wanted to go home.
The blond got up as fast as he could, and started skating around slowly, hoping that people would forget the incident. His legs were still a bit shaky from the fall, and he could feel the redness from the impact on his cheek.
And then Kenjirou spotted him. On the other side of the ice was the person he idolized most: Yuuri Katsuki. Right away, Kenjirou skated over to him. “Wow, I can’t believe you’re also here!! Oh, I know, you came here to Bellevue to train, right? Tell me everything that’s happened since I last saw you!”
