another new face

[genice]

Hello Riverview! kc here, bringing in Victor Nikiforov, 5 time world champion men's singles figure skater, from Yuri!!! On Ice. Mostly this means he can ice skate really, really good. Really good. He's a CRAU from Eluvio, so he's seen some space and has had his world views pretty heavily shaken already; Riverview is a stable paradise by comparison.

He's in community housing on the 7th floor, sharing a room with Yuuri Katsuki, and is slated to be a Program Director for figure skating and Riverview Central Community Center. I predict this will go terribly because he's not equipped to handle designing programs for people not at top level, which means I'm really looking forward to that stress/frustration spilling over into other parts of his life.

Though if anyone's got a character game for adding a figure skater on for self-defense training, let me know! You can find me over on plurk @ kilocharlie or via PM here on DW. I look forward to playing with everyone!

I MEAN I KIND OF WANT TO OFFER BUCKY FOR SELF-DEFENSE TRAINING but he's already teaching Yuri and. We all know Yuri is a jealous angry baby.

Anyway hello I'm Nekky I just added you!! I can't wait to see Victor around, I love him lmao.

[genice]

I'M LAUGHING i think they're both wise enough adults to not want to stir up the pot of Yuri Plisetsky's teen anger and insecurities...

Lovely to meet you Nekky! I look forward to bouncing Victor off Bucky mroe in the future either way laskjdf I'm laughing so much. Oh, Yuri. Your people love you so

[anotheroldsoldier]

He could probably set him up with someone else though! Or I know John Wick just got hired on as a combat instructor, his player is awesome

Lmao yes perfect. I think it'll be fun!

[genice]

Laughs, honestly either of those options would be fantastic! People he'd been learning from before were from all different walks of life and experience... he's gotten used to having his butt handed to him in the course of learning this stuff. Hard work at least doesn't phase him. (Killing would, kneejerk away from that alsdfjk)

Yesss I agree. clenches fist! Is Bucky going to be doing much in the flower festival?

[anotheroldsoldier]

Bucky will def be around somewhere, I haven't decided what to top-level with yet. Otherwise I'll just tag you and we'll go from there :V

[genice]

Grins, sounds good either way! I'll work on getting a toplevel up tomorrow or Tuesday, from the looks of my work schedule. \o/

ONE DAY BUCKY WILL ICE SKATE TO A PROGRAM FROM VICTOR AND IT WILL BE TERRIBLE.

AKA hello and welcome to the game. I'm Fossil and I play MCU Bucky, nice to meet you.

[genice]

IM LAUGHING REALLY HARD, FOSSIL hello it's been a while (I think we were in Subnautica? together? I MAY BE MISREMEMBERING) but yes it's wonderful to meet you (again???) and thank you for the welcome

also bucky

keep that knee steady your turn was looking hideous

[advanced]

OH YES I think that we were, lovely to meet you again!

So rude, his knees will always be steady, watch him twirl on those skates.

[genice]

laughs yes, back when i had chihiro there iirc, but yes! lovely to meet you again!

sure, sure................ that was a sloppy exit from your spin TRY AGAIN, BUCKY

[advanced]

Can he like... fire guns as he's skating. Assassination figure skating? Deadly on ice.

[genice]

this is a performance art not an assassination performance wow???

[livingsymbol]

Oh no another skater friend! I volunteer Steve here to... uh. Not skate. But he can help with the defense-training too?

[genice]

i personally am now laughing imagining steve rogers figure skating but it's for beautiful reasons

however, victor could definitely be helped with defense-training if steve's up for working with a post-ussr collapse russian federation world class athletic hero of russia




.. okay admittedly that just makes me laugh for unrelated reasons I'M SORRY

[livingsymbol]

Lord, steve is not elegant enough for skating at all. He has fat legs. ;;;

FFFFF I volunteer steve for this now because it's just too perfect. Also he already likes Yuri, so. You know.

[genice]

The sound I made laughing about that right now is best never recorded on audio but rest assured, I laughed alsdjkf

STEVE, HIS HERO do you want Victor to end up asking about this ICly or tumbling into looking for a trainer through... osmosis as he now knows Yuri P has been training in self defense and apparently fighting monsters in streets and in tunnel systems his rinkmate's all grown up and going into scary places help

[livingsymbol]

The man is built like a brick, okay. He has a great figure for tumbling and vault but figure skating isssss probably not the best plan. although Steve in an American flag themed skating outfit sounds amazing.

Whichever works better for you! I'm going to tag around in the event log or we can just assume Victor hears about the training via the small tiger boy.

[genice]

Steve in American flag themed skating outfit is all I really want I won't pretend otherwise, come out here and help do some ice dancing we can nail those lifts --

Actually you are brilliant, kisses cheeks, Victor can put up some basic advertisement in the event log as a prompt LMASD i Have to laugh because of course he would! First impressions get

[livingsymbol]

ok but like I just imagined Victor trying to lift Steve and snorted really loudly ty

Excellent! I will tag you with one blond hot mess of a man.

[genice]

WHEEZING DONT WORRY STEVE THIS CAN'T POSSIBLY GO WR--

later, lying on the ice under a brick wall of a man, Victor evaluated his life decisions

and still decided no, no real regrets

[livingsymbol]

Victor don't bite off more than you can chew

look at this man he is so heavy

On the other hand, he could easily carry Victor?

[genice]

you say, as Victor's like, what does that even mean, clearly I would not do that (he would, but he has a better instinct to not at least)

he is heavy but he is also perhaps going to work fine when we throw in a little kinetic motion, we're good here!!!

... yeah. yeah, that might. might be easier. victor waves at yuuri and yuri as steve walks by with him HIIII GUYS WE'RE WORKING ON INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS~

please ignore me it's been a long, long day

[livingsymbol]

steve skates by with victor held above his head and yuri and yuuri and both like "....."

this is how you make friends right

[genice]

i mean

victor absolutely thinks so

[livingsymbol]

That is great for the sheer ridiculousness of it. I need this cr.

[genice]

same now if i get things done tonight that'll be up tonight -- or else tomorrow, rubs hands through hair!

[livingsymbol]

swoons from the majesty
