all i can do (is say that my arms were made for holding you) by honeyed_dagger (sarartist)

Summary
“I told you how I was a pole vaulter back in Japan, right? When I used to do it, Ash— I felt like, I felt like—”
“Like you were flying,” Ash completes, a little breathlessly.
Watching Eiji’s figure suspended in the air, poised in a moment of unforeseeable recklessness, Ash thinks that he, too, can taste the drops of freedom on his tongue. He wants to protest, wants to tell him to stop, because this is so, so dangerous, but he can’t, he absolutely can’t— because who is he, a leopard ensnared in a deluge of snow, asking an unfettered bird to pause its flight?
or
Ash has always found solace in Eiji’s sunlit smile, sought comfort in his honeyed gaze.
But, what happens, when Eiji is the one falling apart?

A Player of Many Parts by theangryuniverse for lorelai_walker

Summary
All sorts of people come to Yuuri Katsuki’s small office on campus, mostly to ask for help with the syllabus, how to write a term paper, and all the other big and small things that come with the undergraduate experience. Everyone is a little lost every now and then.
Life could be so easy, were it not for the new, slightly older student named Victor that keeps coming to his open office hour and whose smile repeatedly makes Yuuri forget who he is.
In which Victor is a world-famous actor, looking for purpose, going back to university, and Yuuri Katsuki, Ph.D. student, is completely oblivious.

That Would Be Enough by theangryuniverse for lorelai_walker

Summary
The day the nomads arrive, Yuuri's life takes an unexpected turn.
For he has known Victor, or rather, of Victor, long before he had even first laid his eyes on him. He has known of his reputation, of his name, of his title, of his influence and power, just like everyone else. His knowledge had not made him any special, and it certainly has not prepared him for anything he faces now.
For what, truly, could it possibly be that the man that everyone calls the hokin sees in him?

Summary
“You can't retire,” Yuri interrupted fiercely, or, at least as fiercely as he could with tears pouring down his cheek and snot dripping from his nose, turning his face to glare up at Yuuri with red, puffy eyes.
(Yuri skated his heart out and he still didn't know if it would be enough.)
