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.]

You're very talented. The music seems to suit you.

It sounds wistful. Like you're missing something.

Is there something you're looking for? Or is it the sound of it.

[personal profile] timeshields 2017-11-01 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'm happy with what I have.

I'm content.
spes_phthisica: (Your widest measure)

Ohhhh.

[Just sitting here with his chin in his hands, beaming happily.]

That was so beautiful! I don't really know all that much about dance, but you're truly amazing. [He'll offer Yuuri some applause too just to really embarrass him.]
spes_phthisica: (Of every plan you wrecked)

[personal profile] spes_phthisica 2017-11-01 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I really did.

[Aww, that's cute. Souji looks incredibly pleased at having made Yuuri blush, because he's an absolute little shit like that.]

Weren't you expecting to be praised? You must know that you're incredibly skilled, right? [Yeah, he's going to keep poking at it.]
mersunary: (And whistle)

Whoa, that was really good! Like, super amazing, you must really love dancing.

We aren't human anymore. We should just accept that.

My God is better at being a human than I am.
spes_phthisica: by nique (Then I was embraced by men)

[personal profile] spes_phthisica 2017-11-01 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, there's no way that Souji isn't going to giggle happily at Yuuri's reaction, because he's just terrible like that. He can't interact with awkward nerds without wanting to tease them? BUT WITH LOVE, OK?]

You probably didn't, huh? I mean, since you're so embarrassed by someone complimenting you, maybe you would've tried to find a way to avoid it otherwise. [He winks.] I'm not complaining, since that meant that I got to see you dance, so everyone wins.

[He also sounds a lot like he's flirting when he's teasing people... sorry.]
spes_phthisica: by nique (I'm on the side of snake-eyes tossed)

[personal profile] spes_phthisica 2017-11-01 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
[They're both the most oblivious in the world about flirting in very different ways, and everything is terrible. Souji is having fun, though, considering how he only laughs harder.]

I believe you! It's pretty cute and funny that you're getting all flustered, so I'm really just teasing you to get a reaction, you know?

[He's just going to come out and say it, apparently? What a rudeass.]

I'm so sorry, I can't html on my phone even for fonts

Viktor watched as if the performance were the most important thing he'd ever seen, and maybe it was. It certainly felt like it, even if he had to push down the niggling vague discomfort it brought him.

"That was beautiful."

If he sounded breathless, well...he was.

[And still Souji nods enthusiastically, rocking back and forth a bit as if he's really pleased with himself.]

My god calls me a brat a lot. I guess I can be a little bit rude.

[Which is juxtapositioned with how incredibly politely and correctly he still speaks to make it pretty clear that he just doesn't give a damn and is rude anyway. At least when he smiles it's a bit warmer and more serious.]

But I didn't mean to make fun of you or anything. I think I'm just the kind of person who teases others anyway.
