Some less-explored aspects of Viktor Nikiforov’s character that I will love and protect until my dying day:
Finally learned how to be a young and careless person at age 27
Was absolutely 100% willing to jump straight into a “Married for five years with a dog” type relationship with Katsuki Yuuri the moment his feet hit the ground in Japan (Viktor “U-haul” Nikiforov)
Arrived in Japan assuming that he and Yuuri were already in a relationship and, once realizing his error, didn’t pressure Yuuri into ‘Keeping his promise’ or something similarly creepy
Literally is such an affectionate person and lets exactly zero (0) stereotypes regarding Eastern European men apply to him
He never raises his voice in anger to anyone??? ever?? I love it
Is an extremely competitive person but probably also the most sporting person in the entire fuckin show? Like even Yuuri can sometimes be a bit of a sore loser but Viktor’s like, Yuuri you better inspire the fuck out of that smol multi-colored skate child. Hell yes I’m proud of Yurio, that’s my boy, that’s my actual son.
Is a masculine person who gives ZERO FUCKS about perceived gender
NONE of his compliments to Yuuri are overtly physicality-based? He showers Yuuri in compliments about his stamina, about his ability to wow the crowd. He tells him how sexy he is but it’s entirely because of how Yuuri’s CONFIDENCE makes him sexy. Viktor is, at every moment, using positive reinforcement to make Yuuri see himself in a kinder light.
Is literally always unashamedly high key about everything.
“My favorite scene from Yuri on Ice, was definitely, when we realize as the viewers, that Victor loved Yuuri before Yuuri loved Victor… He was so in love with him and so into it. And everyone wants a romantic
love story like that.” -Johnny Weir
“A California-based YouTube star has raised a staggering $130,000 (€122,000) for the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) after appealing to his followers to donate.
Markiplier, real name Mark Fischbach, launched his GoFundMe page on Monday. In less than a day, he smashed the $100,000 (€93,700) target.
Announcing its launch at the start of the week, the 27-year-old said in a statement, ‘Today we stand by our LGBTQ+ friends to ensure equality for EVERYONE! Please help us raise $100,000 for the Human Rights Campaign to ensure the future stays bright and open for all!’
It’s not the first time he has turned to his following to help do good. He previously raised over $275,000 (€257,600) for Depression and Bipolar Support, among other charities.”
❝ Shall I tell you the difference between you and I? It’s level. It’s like the story of the monkey trying to capture the moon. No matter how he struggles, it’s just the moon’s reflection on the water he sees. So he only sinks into the water. Time after time, he sinks. ❞
