I got terribly nostalgic about them and their skating last February. I really tried to honor the musicality that characterizes them while also doing a small recap of their career - I hope I succeeded somewhat.

maybe a little too synchronised.

Its raining so hard in my city right now but I still have to endure my 2-hour commute.

So here I am, browing through tumblr, reblogging all there is about Tessa and Scott's Canada Walk of Fame induction and then suddenly...

Mahler's Symphony No. 5 plays in my shuffled and mixed Spotify playlist and I just smile and reflect and cry a little bit at how much I love them as a skating duo, how inspired I am by them and how proud I am to be a fan of theirs.

And then I also remember how beautiful this freaking program is and I just replay it in my head and get a little emotional just a bit more.

21 years of skating together, best friends for life.

Just thank you to Tessa and Scott for being an inspiration of what and how hardwork, dedication, passion, loyalty, friendship pays off to the best things in life.

Love ya'll for life! ♥️

I was actually beginning to recover from my Tessa and Scott obsession but then Miss Tessa pulls shit like this and pulls me right. back. in.

ok fanfic writers;

a couple of years ago there was a fanfic on livejournal in which scott got cut with tessa’s blade and got an infection and almost died and katia gordeeva appeared in the story..

does anyone know if it is still available somewhere?

VM get to know me

I was tagged by the beautiful @cantigasdetanjaouia​ thank you darling!

*Disclaimer: I probably won't answer just one thing as a fav, and also CREDIT TO THE OWNER OF EVERY SINGLE PICTURE.

What does your @ mean?

Well it’s self explanatory, it a reference to Tessa when she was a redhead. I think the main reason why i decided to go with that name, is because I think that was a moment in their career where you could genuinely still see her be herself just a 18 year old athlete having fun (and i also like to think that she got her belly piercing around that age) idk something about her vibe back then is so attractive to me. (also i think her natural hair color is more brown/ginger than her current color)

Any nicknames you go by?

If you know me from a young age you might call me lulu, but im more commonly known as Layla.

Favorite VM program?

Mahler, and I'm approaching this like “if you could only watch on program for you whole life which one would it be?” it’s just a magical program, truly a fairytale. I could write more, but i feel like the performance talks for itself.

here is the link to my favorite performance of the program (and no its not in the olympics)

Least favorite VM program?

The seasons.

Which VM program has made you cry the most?

Well, I think Umbrellas  was truly a performance that cemented me as a fan, I just remember seeing it and being so speechless of the artistry. I didn't even think about their age, skill, or difficulty. it truly felt like I was simply watching a man and a woman show their emotions for one another. This program has this weird dynamic where the choreography is incredibly melancholic because it obviously follows the plot of the movie, but when you juxtapose that with hoe naive and young their look, Scott and Tessa were able to create both something sad and something hopeful, and that's why i feel in love with them.

Favorite VM costumes?

*disclaimer I'm not going to use pics that showcase the costume bcz I'm pretty sure you al know them by now, so i’m just going to insert my fav pic while they are wearing it.

okay so the MR custom are legendary forverandever, because they truly are the epitome of how you show your a couple while being individuals, the whole concept behind those costumes was just revolutionary (literals considering how every male skater was basically in mesh after that, and im not complaining)

I love their comeback customer (prince and latch) they are just simply superb

and then we have some of my  pre-olympic favs 

Least favorite VM costumes?

there are more but mainly this one.

Favorite off ice moment?

I really love the energy of this interview a day after their olympic win in 2018

A song that you wish VM had skated to?

i don't know because they have a good balance of traditional and modern, maybe do something more like The Great Gig in The Sky which till this day is a concept I haven't seen that often, something more abstract and alternative. idk i don't think about it often.

Which program would you most like to see VM skate to again?

UMBRELLAS i mean that program is so mature and the choreography is so fresh even to this day! but add the creativity of the choreography to the their current flawless skating abilities, i mean .... Also i feel like that program is a cult classic or mahler.

What is your favorite picture of them?

it goes without a saying that i love my profile picture, but yep, you guessed it, you're getting more than one!

How long have you been a VM fan?

like three month sadly, maybe a bit more, I become a fan the week they announced that they were retiring, I learned more about figurate skating after watching Spinning Out, which tells its won story too...

I tag whoever has been seeing this post circulate and hasn't been tagged but want to do it!!

[cp3killer]

In these trying times remember that you became a fan of VM because of their skating.

Basically, the entire world is shipping Tessa and Scott right now and I am loving it.

They blast a sizzling latin dance and a dramatic free dance that just hooked the world right now. Then they win gold on the team event. And now, we have to wait a week until they come back again for the individual event. I mean, just perfect timing - for new fans and old fans alike - the anticipation! 😊

Let's just enjoy the moment with them and support them all the way and in all ways we can!
