Summary
It was misfortune that brought Victor and Yuuri together.
An unexpected summer storm, a broken carriage wheel on a muddy forest road, and only one single inn for miles around.
The Earl Nikiforov and his young son had been brought to the Yutopia Inn soaked through, mud soiling their fine clothes, shivering in fabrics too light and delicate to be caught in the rain with.
Misfortune had brought Yuuri face to face with Victor, his blue eyes bright and curious even as his fine silver hair stuck to his skin wet and dripping, hands shivering in his embroidered sleeves.
Mayhap it was a sign that they should have heeded, their first meeting taking place under such an unlucky star.
Mayhap it was an omen, if one believes in such things, for as long as they should know each other, misfortune did not leave their sides.

Summary
Every person on the planet has a soulmate, romantic, platonic or familial.
From the moment the younger one is born, both of them will only dream the other's dreams, until they finally find each other.
The dreams can give you an insight into your soulmate's life and mind, filtered through their subconscious: no concrete facts, of course, but you can get an idea of your soulmate‘s emotional state, of the kind of thoughts, worries and wishes that occupy them, of what kind of a person they are.
Depending on whether someone has very vivid and specific or rather vague and indistinct dreams, they might help you identify who your soulmate is, or they might not give you any kind of information at all.
All that Victor knows about his soulmate is that they like skating and dance and they may possibly have a dog.
He's not been able to find out anything more specific.
That is, until the nightmares start.

Summary
And that’s how it began.
Every time Yuuri was tasked with another mission, Victor would send him off with a lipstick kiss good luck, right at the base of his neck.
And time and time again Yuuri returned home safe and sound and victorious to his husband inside the tech booth, keeping operations running smoothly.
They never forgot, and it never failed, and quickly it turned from a game to a routine to a serious superstition. No matter what they were doing, no matter how urgent the matter or how busy Victor was when Yuuri received another task, they always found a moment. Just a moment for Victor to press his lips to the base of Yuuri’s neck, a token to keep him safe.
They never forgot.
Until they did.

Summary
«Keep going. We’re almost there,» Mila says, catching him by the sleeve of his torn tunic to pull him along. The set of her jaw is tense, but her grip, though firm, is not unkind. Through the static wall cutting his mind off from the battlefield that is his body, Yuuri distantly wonders how she can bear to touch him at all.

Summary
“Are you alright in there? Do you need any help?”
Yuuri freezes.
He hadn’t heard anyone come into the bathroom. He knows he was alone when he entered, he checked. The sound of the door opening must have been covered by his retching. And now there’s someone in here with him. Someone who heard him throw up. And not just anyone, no… Yuuri would recognise that voice anywhere.
He’s stuck in a bathroom stall, sweaty, panicked, with vomit on his chin and his hand, and Victor Nikiforov is outside.

Summary
It was bad enough when Yuuri couldn’t land his jumps.
When he had these days when he just kept falling and falling, kept eating ice in front of his idol, in front of Victor, who was now so much more than just his idol.
Those days were painful, frustrating and humiliating.
But they were nothing compared to this day, when he couldn’t even get down one decent spin, not one clean step sequence.

Summary
This shout was what it took to wake Victor up, bolting upright in bed next to him, hand already reaching for the lamp on the nightstand.
Dim, warm light suffusing the bedroom, Victor turned to Yuuri, expecting to offer him his arms for a calming hug after another nightmare.
He was not expecting a shape clad in black standing over the bed, blade in hand, and so much blood.

Summary
Victor was at rock bottom, and it was hard and cold and unforgiving like gold.
And then there was Sochi. There was Sochi and there was Katsuki Yuuri and there was champagne and dancing and so much light and laughter that he felt dizzy with it.
The next morning he’d felt like he was dropped into a dream, a softer world, kinder and more forgiving than the one he had woken up in the morning before.And then…
Victor had never crashed so hard.
