BENCHED. BNHA verse info !! - viktor is a russian pro hero known as princeling ( name’s subject to change tbh ). famous in his home country & having built himself international fame through his extensive modeling career & hero work, he is well known and admired. 

his quirk itself is called adoration. with a wink he can make anyone fall in love with him, regardless of prior feelings. this ranges from something like fascination to an excessive need to please him and comply to his wishes. after a time it wears off but it can be as helpful as it is detrimental depending on the mental wellbeing of the individual ( obsession, mania, etc ). with his quirk he often can disable/stop villians by making them no longer wish to fight him, do his bidding, etc. 

he’s been in the spotlight for a long time and tires of it, though not outwardly. viktor no longer feels the same passion or verve he once did - some may say he’s even burning out - but for now he remains a star, burning. no matter how he starts to wane day by day. 

as a pro hero he often travels worldwide and works side by side with other heroes and agencies.

❝ ━━     ❛     it is, isn’t it ? this year they were really thinking of my colors !     ❜ to say nothing of the monstrosity they’d forced him into the year previous. green of jade, of vines & lush meadows - yes, that would have been just fine. and yet ! some soul had seen to put him in a horrid shade that would feature in many of his nightmares thereafter.

HEADCANON 01. LOVE

a man given to grand sweeping gestures & changes of the heart ! viktor could perhaps be characterized as fickle but it’s simply that he falls deeply & quickly. this pertains to things far outside just the sense of romantic love too. he’s known for flights of fancy and a perchance towards fascination. a less charitable sort may categorize them as obsessions, but they are usually a mere nuisance towards those around him. 

usually he doesn’t pull stunts quite as massive as flying across the world for in the pursuit of love ( yuuri is a special case ! ) but he’s been known to act before really thinking through consequences. as he grows older he finds that there is less & less true enjoyment that he finds in the day to day so it’s easy to lose himself to fantasy. to go after single-mindedly that which catches his attention. 

generally speaking his interests wane after a while, the spark dulling until he becomes ready to move on. even though this is a pattern of his he doesn’t tend to think it will happen - declarations and intents of forever becoming something he no longer wishes for months down the line. viktor is not cruel but merely given to impermanence. as a true romantic, however, he always dreams of the future and never keeps himself in check when promising himself wholly & completely. he’s broken more than one heart this way. 

there are few things in life that have managed to stay firm in the shifting landscape of his heart. his interest in yuuri probably doesn’t seem so abnormal to those who know him and are used to his flighty patterns. however, what makes yuuri different is that viktor never stops being in love. he’s constantly surprised & delighted & enamored by the man who’s become so many things to him: lover, inspiration, confidante and best friend. yuuri gives him more than just the temporary; in fact, a lot of the times, he feels like yuuri is one of the main reasons he has an emotional future at all.
