In which Yuuri spends a 25 hour flight next to Victor Nikiforov, skating legend, and feels it might simultaneously be the best and worst thing that has ever happened to him.
It's been years since Yuuri sold his soul to a devil. Years of soaring, years of gold medal after gold medal, world record after world record, and Yuuri is tired of it.
But when the devil named Victor reappears and tells him he needs a favour ... maybe there is a way for Yuuri to make it right again after all. A way for him to gain his soul back.
After all, what is one date?
He swallowed and lifted his hand to trace his fingertips along the letters that were not, he realised now, black, but a deep navy blue. He knew without trying that no amount of scrubbing would make these words disappear.
Be my coach, Victor!
The words told him with more certainty than any amount of butterflies in his stomach or distracted daydreams ever could.
He was in love.
He was in love with Katsuki Yuuri, his soulmate.
A Soulmate AU in which, when you fall in love with your soulmate, the last words they said to you appear on your skin.
Yuuri walked towards Victor Nikiforov like a man heading to his execution.
A commemorative photo didn't sound too bad, and it was probably his last chance to get one.

Yuuri bitterly takes Victor up on his offer and ends up very surprised.
Part 1 of Dream Weaver
Yuuri Katsuki can skate really well, when no one is watching. It's only a matter of time before he does something amazing, and the world takes notice.
It starts with Phichit, gets to Sochi, and ends, as everything does, with Victor.
In which Yuuri does things, Phichit is the MVP (Yuuko a close second), and Victor is smitten.
Victor attempts to find his feet in Japan but finds himself becoming obsessed with Yuuri’s instead as he fails to decipher the mysterious puzzle of Yuuri's constantly exposed ankles.
AKA “I went to Hasetsu and all I got was this lousy foot fetish.”
Professor Yuuri Katsuki spent the majority of his creative writing career publishing under a pen name. He had never met a fan, but when fate finally gave Yuuri a chance, of course it's the eccentric new Physics professor on campus, Victor Nikiforov.
Victor is uncertain of his relationship status with Yuuri, and decides to take matters into his own hands. Some fluff along the way.
When pair skater Yuuri Katsuki’s career comes to a scandalous end, he does not expect the retired pair skating legend Viktor Nikiforov to suggest that they compete together. But taking on a new skating partner is full of trial and error, and the skating world doesn’t know how to react when the Katsuki-Nikiforov duo, against all odds, starts doing well. The last thing either of them should do, as they strive for their last chance at greatness, is to fall in love. Yuuri knows he is damaged goods, and Viktor knows his body is starting to fail him. They have competitions to survive and medals to win. No, falling in love is out of the question; they’re just very good friends. And even if Viktor felt something, he’d never act on it, and even if Yuuri happened to be hopelessly in love, he’d be mortified if Viktor ever found out.
Poodle
Yuuuuri did you know you're ranked second on “Top Ten Butts in Men’s Figure Skating” ???
The blog had ranked Victor third, below Yuuri, which is laughable. “This is an opportunity,” Phichit says, when he finds Yuuri in the kitchen, staring at the text while his pot of instant noodles boils over on the stove. “To find out if it’s Victor, I mean.”
Katsuki Yuuri
the rankings are clearly wrong
particularly the top three
But either Poodle isn’t Victor, or he isn’t interested in defending the honour of his butt: of course it’s wrong! your butt is clearly superior to that Canadian, his ass is flatter than blinchiki.
(After his disastrous Grand Prix Final, Katsuki Yuuri decides to try to be the first skater to land a quad axel in competition. It’s a secret from everyone, except the mysterious text correspondent who appeared in his phone contacts as “Poodle” following the Sochi GPF.)
