    Summary

    Victor learns Japanese while in Hasetsu. He doesn't tell Yuuri, and things get dicey when he overhears Yuuri and Mari talking about him in Japanese. Repeatedly.

    (The subtitle of this fic should be: Victor Nikiforov really needs a hug. Luckily, he gets one. Eventually.)

    ~~~

    “No,” Victor says, skating up to Yuuri on the ice, “you have to push all the way from here, or you’ll never get the height you need for that axel.” He sets his hand on Yuuri’s ass, tracing the muscle group he’s referring to. “Not here.” He taps Yuuri’s thigh. He doesn’t know the words for the muscles in English, only knows how to show him.

    Yes, technically he’s grabbing Yuuri’s ass, but how else is he to communicate?

    Summary

    The adventuring life is one that is humble. It is also one filled with mundane dangers like carnivorous beasts and bandits. Essek is learning how to take care of himself while living on the road alone, but sometimes, he still needs a little help. Sometimes, he just wants to be someplace warm.

    Summary

    Essek once again found himself floundering, struggling to stand under the weight of all Caleb's selflessness. He was not sure how it came so easy to Caleb, how he was able to offer so much and still stand there as if he had not just pulled a part of his very soul and handed it to Essek with a smile. In another time perhaps Essek would have taken note of that selfless streak, might have worked tirelessly to figure out exactly how best to exploit that good nature, how to puppeteer him to get to exactly what he wanted. In another time perhaps Essek had not been extended the warm hand of kindness. In another time perhaps Essek was still alone.

    Or, Essek has a nightmare and Caleb is there to comfort him
