Heaven's BBS [Video]

From: Yuuri Katsuki
Date: September 9th


[The camera is focused on a wide, empty room -- smooth wooden floors, mirrored walls with a built-in barre. A dance studio. As Yuuri steps away from where he's set it up, he puts his glasses down next to it and takes a deep breath, then sighs it back out.]

I'm not sure how many people will watch this, but... I've been working on it for a while, and I think I'd like someone to see it. And... the people I'd most like to show, I don't think they're here anymore, so...

[He touches something at his neckline, looks like he might say something else for a moment, then thinks better of it. Instead, he leans over to hit play on a recording, then gets in position to begin, closes his eyes, and dances.]

[The music is quiet and wistful, somehow sort of introspective, bordering at times on plaintive. An orchestral piece, slowly building and intricate, dramatic in an understated sort of way. It's just about the opposite of what he usually dances to when he's working with Sparkle Motion, but somehow, it fits Yuuri like a glove. There's a softness to the performance, a heart-rending sort of vulnerability, but he's as sure in his movements as he is graceful. He's obviously skilled -- he moves with the ease of breathing, even as the music builds in pace and volume and the steps to the dance get more obviously challenging.]

[It can't last forever, though, and as the last strains of the music fade from the air, he falls back into the same posture as before, timid and nervous as he faces the camera.]


...Thank you for watching.

[He bows before the recording ends.]

Yeah, it was great. When you first started out, your form was real stiff, like you were thinkin' about every move you were gonna make. But this time you just flowed with the music.

[His smile quirks up just a little.]

That piece must be pretty special, huh? You get it from home?

I definitely get it. I felt the same way when I heard the theme song to Magic Girl Development Project for the first time. It was everything I thought it would be, and more.

[It's probably the same thing in the world of Barry Goodman.]

Yeah... stuff like that really sticks with a guy.

[Barry laughs a little, but then his expression turns thoughtful.]

Hey, you wanna try puttin' some lyrics to that music sometime?

[He does have the Singaloid software, after all.]

Then again, it might be perfect just the way it is.

I'm sure Tiki'd be happy to help!

[Barry talks about her as if she were a real person. Part of the Sparkle Motion team. Because to him, she is.]
