Title: A Story About Summer

(Yuri on Ice | Otabek x Yuri |  900 words)

Artist: @peggyshrooms​ (also on Twitter)

Author: @erushi (also on Twitter)

Rating: PG-13

Summary:

Summer in Hasetsu felt different from summer in Almaty.

Otabek remarked as much to Yuri, who snorted and rolled his eyes. “Big surprise. They’re different places.”

“They feel different,” Otabek insisted stubbornly. “Hasetsu’s quieter, but there’s something else too.”

Or: A story in which Otabek visits Hasetsu, attends a summer festival, and falls in love - not necessarily in that order.

In July, I wrote 4 fics for the Lover/Fighter Otayuri fanzine, a collaboration with the amazingly talented @peggyshrooms​. Here’s the first of the four, and possibly my favourite. (I may be working on a sequel. >_>)

The monochrome version of the illustration which inspired this fic is reproduced above with Peggy’s permission. The full-colour version, and all the other illustrations that were done for this fic, are only available in the zine.

(Also posting this in honour of Otabek Week, although this is not a formal submission since it’s not new content. ^^;;)

peggyshrooms:

Happy to announce my new zine! It’s Otayuri because this pair needs more love 🙆💙🐻🐯

Little trivia: I didn’t want to restrict myself with a theme ( e.g traveling / vacation theme) but I ended up having extremely scattered illustrations. I’ve been lurking @erushi ‘s stuff for a while and to my surprise she’s a local (I’m so happy Q.Q) So I’ve decided to pick up my courage to approach her for this zine :) !! Completely shook at the quality of her writings in such a short time! Thank you Erushi for joining me, I’m very proud of the book and I’m very proud of you <3

I didn’t print a lot so please grab it if you’d like! The cover is 250gsm matte laminated finishing and the content is 150gsm per page ( which is rather thick, I like it thiiiic )
The zine is 4 different AUs + visual aid ( illustrations).

If you are interested, please fill in the form here!

There’s a few more preview images over at my Instagram too 💙

I’m pleased to announce a recent project!

Earlier this month, the talented @peggyshrooms invited me to write a few words to accompany the illustrations in her Otayuri zine. I went a little overboard and wrote her four short fics. :D;;

Please support Peggy’s zine! Her art is gorgeous - I’d frame and display everything if I could. It’s been an honour to contribute to it. <3

Scored the YOI Ichiban Kuji “Enjoy Your Trip” Tour Guide Book, and Otabek’s page is just ~killing me.

Imagine:

Otabek sending Yurio pictures of the random, interesting things he finds in Almaty, and Yurio replying, “Give me!!!”

Otabek invariably buying those things for Yurio and sending them to him. 

It starts of as a joke, but like all running jokes, it escalates, until one day, Yurio opens his front door, expecting to find yet another parcel from Kazakhstan… but finds a WILD CITY BOY on his doorstep instead.

“I was expecting something a lot smaller,” Yurio says, with a nonchalance he doesn’t feel. He hopes that Otabek doesn’t hear the slight hitch in his voice.

“Thought I’d deliver it personally,” Otabek grins, sharp and sure, as he drops the black-and-gold cap on top of Yurio’s head. 

What, Yurio tries to say, but Otabek leans in then, and steals the retort right from his lips. 

“Suits you,” Otabek finally murmurs. a while later. A long while later. 

“Oh,” Yurio breathes, slightly dazed. Unthinkingly, his hands fist in the front of Otabek’s jacket, and he reels his maybe-boyfriend in for another kiss.

Further to Oodeo Onsen Otayuri, a friend suggested: 

What if Yurio picked Otabek’s yukata for him, so that they’d match?

So here are 200-ish words exploring precisely that. :D;;


Otabek doesn’t catch on immediately. It’s not the first time that he’s gone shopping with Yuri, and it’s not the first time that Yuri’s tried to pick clothes for him. He still has that t-shirt from Barcelona, the one Yuri insisted he get because it brought out his eyes - whatever that meant.

As yukata go, Otabek supposes this one’s alright. It’s black, a colour he likes, and the silver design is pretty cool. Yuri’s also really keen on it, which is a plus.

He’s still a little self conscious, however, when he steps out of the changing room. “Ta-dah,” he says, putting on his best please-like-me smile.

Yuri gives him a thumbs-up, which is enough to convince Otabek to pay for the yukata shortly after.

It’s only later, when he’s drinking some kind of sweet, fizzy lemonade from a blue bottle, that he catches on.

Yuri hooks his arm around the crook of Otabek’s elbow, snuggling againat Otabek’s bare arm. (Otabek had folded the sleeves of his yukata up by then, the weather hot as it is.)

“I’m glad we match,” Yuri says cheerfully.

Otabek glances at the pattern on Yuri’s yukata, takes in the colours. He looks down at his.

And he promptly chokes.

Flash ficlet for Oodeo Onsen Beka and Yurio because:
1. Beka’s biceps.
2. I genuinely couldn’t tell what Yurio was holding maybe a sex toy? until someone told me that it was ramune.
3. OTAYURI DOESN’T NEED A REASON TO EXIST. 8D
Otabek agrees to...

Otabek agrees to visiting Hasetsu in June, only because Yuri asks him.

“Thank God you came,” Yuri tells him when he meets him at the train station. “One more day alone with Victor and the katsudon, and I’ll go crazy.”

“I don’t mind,” he says, because it’s true.

He’s not expecting Yuri to grin, boyish and wide.

“So, what’s there to do here?” he asks, when he finally remembers to breathe.

Yuri takes his hand in response.

So, OtaYuri Reverse Bang 2017! I totally lucked out by picking the most amazing artist ever in the form of @princelingkit, and then I somehow wrote my longest YOI fic to date. :D;; 

I hope people like this one. Please give the artist a lot of love, because this fic wouldn’t even have been possible without them!
