Writing request: Back in the abbey, Boris and Yuriy around 9 years old. Yuriy is afraid of thunderstorms. Boris calms and distracts him before the caretakers find out and punish Yuriy for his vulnerability.
This highkey went to a weird place, I donāt know why.

I happily let you take the lead with this one.
Kai is such a sad puppy :')
MAYBLADE. 04 GALAXY
āI have an idea!āĀ
After lingering in comfortable laziness for a while, they had started their day with a proper breakfast and a proper shower. Kai had eagerly put on his contacts and was now getting dressed when Yuriy took him by surprise and sent him back sitting on the bed.Ā
He then moved to the window, trying to block the rays of sunshine getting through. Closing it was not an option, so he had to be satisfied with what he managed.
Wondering if the Japanese summer heat had finally taken the final toll on his boyfriend, Kai observed the craziness unfold.Ā
Yuriy smirked back at him, sporting the confidence and resolution Kai had fallen for months before, and kept igniting his curiosity and interest.Ā
āWhat now?ā
āClose your eyes.ā
Yuriy lifted his index finger, blocking any possible discussion, and repeated the order. Kai did as told and made sure to exaggerate the movement. Yuriyās once rare light chuckle confirmed he was successful.
A few soft thumps betrayed Yuriy's movement toward the desk. Kai didnāt even think twice about sneaking a peek, his eyes drifting to the curved figure, watching as he fiddled frantically with something. A socket, maybe?Ā
āNo peeking!ā Yuriy suddenly turned and caught him red-handed. Defiant, Kai closed his eyes again while Yuriy kept rummaging through his things.Ā
The footsteps got closer again, a single thud of something being set down on the bedside table, until the mattress dipped next to him.Ā
Kai instinctively began to open his eyes, catching a brief glimpse of Yuriyās resigned yet amused smirk before his vision was blocked once more, this time by Yuriyās hand.Ā
Kai sighed loudly amid his laughter and waited for Yuriyās continuous rummaging.Ā
āI promised,ā Yuriy spoke, his tone suddenly serious as he finally raised his hand.Ā
Yuriyās skin shimmered with a blend of blue and purple hues, merging seamlessly with his natural complexion. A scatter of white dots mingled with the pattern of his freckles, like stars woven into his skin.
Kai had seen before the full effect of the galaxy lamp, now a bit lost in the incomplete darkness.Ā
āWhat is that for?ā Kai asked, eyeing the little astronaut projecting the images around the room, a fitting gift from Boris for Yuriyās last birthday.Ā
āItās midnight once again,ā Yuriy responded matter-of-factly. āSo, I can wish you a happy birthday as planned.ā
Kai felt a tightening in his stomach.Ā
āWhy is that so important?ā
A flush rising in his ears.
āBecause I promised.ā
And a warmth blooming in his chest.

mayblade day 3 - eyes
thanks to seeing everyone elseās art, i did this.
mayblade day 1 - dawn
based off @kinomiya's fic
very quick little thing
Mayblade. 01 Dawn
Mugginess engulfed his bare skin while he regained consciousness. The sheets under him moved with a slight rustle. A quiet āfuckā was murmored at his side.
Kaiās eyes opened sluggishly, focusing on the glimmer of light from the half-drawn curtains. The night sky behind it was slowly and relentlessly giving way to the pale yellow light of the sun, catching up warmth as it invaded the rest of the sky.Ā
Another sigh made him concentrate back on the bed. The room was still dark, and his eyes tried to adjust to the figure beside him. Kai was still too numb to bother reaching for his glasses somewhere in the room. He made do with the blurry outlines of Yuriyās hands rubbing tiredly his face and the red blotch of his hair.Ā
Kai adjusted himself on his right side, his left hand reaching for the pillow under his cheek.Ā
At that, Yuriy seemed to finally realize he was awake as well.Ā
āI fell asleep.ā
Kai just produced an affirmative noise, trying to guess how much Yuriy was furrowing his eyebrows: to admonish him for letting him sleep, or himself for failing the task to stay awake until midnight.Ā
āIām sorry,ā Yuriy sighed again.Ā
Kaiās hand left his pillow and reached forward until he could entangle his fingers in the messy red hair. The gentle pull wasnāt necessary, but it felt like clearance for both to reach forward.Ā
āStupid,ā Kai gladly sacrificed more of his clarity to have that proximity, any point of contact between them - the hand in the hair, the tip of their noses - giving him a shock of electricity directly to his heart. He looked for more, closed his useless eyes, and savoured their lips, tasting and exploring.Ā
With no sight, he welcomed the cold fingers brushing both his chin and his side, until they gripped him, absorbed his warmth, and burned hot against his skin.Ā
Another sigh anticipated the āHappy birthdayā murmured against his lips.Ā
Kai couldnāt help but smile, hoping that Yuriy could catch his reaction, either with his perfect eyesight or through the wrinkling of the skin under his touch.Ā Ā

Notes: I hc Kai as far-sighted, not sure if I got it right, but a girl can hope lol

Vicissitude
| viĀ·cisĀ·siĀ·tude | /vÉĖsisÉĖtoĶod/ |
noun
a change of circumstances or fortune, typically one that is unwelcome or unpleasant.
For @syfien who I have had the pleasure of considering my best friend.
Iām sorry this wasnāt completed for your birthday, you deserved better.
The original version and finished version ended up being very different, I suppose you were my muse until the very end.
There is a playlist I guess.
Thank you to @tribius-art for helping me bring this vision to life.
Hereās a little story about Yuriy I threw together in a weird way. Told from Boris`s perspective, a few years after it happened - when heās still a bit emotional about it. Itās also more his thoughts, I think he wouldnāt really talk like that.
Funfact: Yuriy himself doesnāt remember the breakout. He even laughed about it, saying Boris is kidding him.
Who is we/us in the last panel? - Boris, Ivan, Sergej, other abbey children, basically Yuriys friends.

Sorry if this is rambling about the ship I had missed for 20+ years. I wonder when do you start shipping YuKa? I just started shipping them when I watched the series during 2025 new year. I had watched them long time ago and literally had no idea why I didn't notice their bond earlier. It could be because it's more difficult to interpret or too subtle for kid's brain than Kai&Tyson and Kai&BBA's relationship.
Of all people, Kai decided to see Tala during his lowest and most vulnerable moment. Like, Kai has had his moments of confusion and being lost in the past, and it was always the BBA who had to break through his walls and pull him out to open up. But with Tala, Kai chose to approach him on his own. Tala didn't really need to break anything, Kai seeks him.
The anime focuses on the mental link between Kai and Tyson during battles, but itās only now that Iāve noticed Tala and Kai also share a moment of connection(The Tala's crying scene ;;). If Kai and Tysonās connection happens when both are at their strongest, then Kai and Talaās bond is about connecting when they are at their most vulnerable.
Kai might not realize it, but whether it's platonically or romantically, Tala is his safe zone. Seriously Kai, if you seek someone out when youāre at your weakest, emptiest, and most lost, they are your the one and only.
hello! omg, never apologize about rambling in my inbox, it made me so happy to see this! <3 thank you for sending your thoughts on YuKa, feel free to send more whenever!
what made me fall for the ship decades ago were the clips and excerpts from the third season i saw (I couldn't watch the whole thing back then because our local TV only aired the first season and watching anime online was only possible if you torrented the whole episodes which i didn't know how to do).
of course this could not replicate actually watching the season and I was a kid back then so I didn't exactly analyze their relationship and came to an informed decision that i will support this ship, it was more of seeing how they interact in GRev and going "hey. i like them together".
When I rewatched the whole series, all seasons last year, I was wondering if I would still ship them, after all it's been a long time and i'm an adult, will i like them the same? I was unsure for a long time, but ultimately came to a conclusion that like you said, Kai and Tala have a type of a connection he doesn't really have with anyone else in the show and Kai has possibly not realized that yet.
Like you pointed out, even though at first we are led to believe they are not exactly close, he was the one Kai went to when he was at his lowest, showing that he was willing to bare this part of himself to Tala that he was hiding from the BBA, possibly out of pride. It was childish to run away from his friends but he's allowed to, because Kai is just a child, which is easy to forget sometimes.
My personal interpretation is that it's going to take Kai at least another year or two once he fully realizes what Tala means to him, platonically or romantically. Possibly longer because he has a tendency to push back his emotions instead of trying to understand them properly
Hail Wolborg ļ¼¼(ļ½0Ā“)ļ¼
Currently writing a TalaxOC fanfic in which Tala loses his bit-beast and Wolborg has some back story prior to Biovolt
This is how I imagine her in it
Are you going to put the fanfic here?
Because I'd love to read it
beyblade relationship that i think is very cute and would love to see it more talked about: yuriy and dickenson/daitenji in g-rev
he barely knew this kid before but he sits with yuriy in the hospital for half of the season.
dickenson has just had the bba, something very important to him taken away from him by volkov. and yet he sits there with yuriy who had his childhood, innocence, trust in people, etc taken away by volkov as well. i am certain that he would think that losing the bba is nothing compared to what yuriy went through and grow attached to him.
then he would try to help him in any way he can, pay for his therapy, etc. he himself received help and got back what volkov took away from him, he would want to provide the help yuriy needs to get back what volkov took as well
yuriy on the other hand has most likely never had a proper familial relationship and i want him to experience one. i want him to eventually accept that this sweet old man genuinely wants the best for him and call him dedushka bc he probably never had an actual dedushka in his life.
