The second of two photosets I did to express my own feelings following the events of this past weekend (the first set and writeup is here). I won’t retread what I already wrote, but I will continue to call for love and support for all your fellow people that have been effected by this, and the actions and systems that have led up to it.

Stand strong. Stand together. Stand up against oppression and subjugation.

Love to you all.

Alright so thanks
to the new interview with Kubo-sensei (amazing translation here), we know:

  • Yuuri has
    indeed moved to Russia, and Viktor is still his coach, even though he is aware
    that competing and coaching at the same time will be difficult. 
  • Yuuri and
    Viktor can’t live without each other and can’t stand being separated.
  • If you still
    had any doubts, I’d argue that Kubo-sensei more or less confirms that Viktor
    and Yuuri are in a romantic relationship in this interview.
  • Viktor’s
    return to skating, the pair skate and Yuuri’s silver medal were all planned
    from the very beginning. Their story arcs were meant to lead to this conclusion
    from the very start.
  • Viktor and
    Yuuri’s stories are built around them mutually inspiring each other 
  • Viktor is
    incredibly happy about the bond he shares with Yuuri, because Yuuri is someone
    who sees him in a new, fresh way. 
  • The kiss
    scene in episode 7 was the most memorable scene for Kubo-sensei and she
    actively constructed the whole narrative up until that moment so that the kiss
    would feel natural and real.
  • Yurio is
    determined to beat Yuuri’s FS score and is therefore not entirely happy with
    his gold.
  • Kubo-sensei
    would love to work on the show for as long as possible and wants to do a second
    season.
