that last ask made me laugh bc at this point it makes no difference to plisetsky whatsoever if victor or katsuki give a damn about him. the whole 'they're his dads~ thing' that the fandom insists upon always struck me more as an attempt at mitigating victor's broken promise (his callous attitude toward plisetsky in general, really - we can't have sweet prince vitya being less than perfect) than something that was ever going to be beneficial to the kid. he already has family.
Lmao yeah. The parent thing never has Yuri himself in mind, he's just used as an accessory for Victor and Yuuri. Heck even if you remove Grandpa, there are still other characters that fit better for headcanons/jokes like that like Yakov and Lilia, or even Yuuko. Funnily enough a decent part of the fandom villainized the former two for quite a long time, which I still can't understand
