YOI Fic Recs?

[ashiiblack]

Hi YOI fans!

Anyone have favorite YOI fics they want to share?

I've been consuming the monstrosity that is Until My Feet Bleed and My Heart Aches by Reiya this weekend. Honestly it seems like it has its own mini-fandom!

Comment with links to your favorite YOI fics!

I've done a couple of rounds of fic recs that might be of interest...

Thanks I'm going to collect these for a Masterlist of Recs if that's okay with you?

[naraht]

Sure, that's fine!

[icicle33]

I started reading this too! It's on my ipad and so long. I think we should make some type of Masterlist of rec post. What do you think? Also, I made a yurionice_mod account so we can all post from. I'll email you the details.

[ashiiblack]

Sweet thx

[merit]

I've made a reclist as well. Hopefully another in the future :)

[icicle33]

Thank you! I will compile this for a masterlist of recs post for the comm if you don't mind?

[merit]

Sure! ^^

[annabeth_roses]

I've worked my way through almost all of caeseria's fic on AO3 and I loved all the ones I read.

HERE

I hope they don't mind if I link to their AO3. ^^;;

[caeseria]

Not at all!! And wow, thank YOU. <3

[annabeth_roses]

I'm having so much fun making new friends in this fandom! I've missed the social interaction of places like DW...

[caeseria]

Yes, I think what I miss the most is the interaction. Tumblr is fine but I want to TALK to people!!!

<3

[annabeth_roses]

I can't even deal with tumblr anymore and haven't in years.

I haven't networked on LJ or DW for a long time either, but new fandom, shinies, so much gorgeous Viktor/Yuuri FEELS to wallow in!

[ashiiblack]

I still have no idea how to use tumblr on my mobile app to any extent other than following and favoriting so I'm thrilled that Icicle had the idea to create a comm.

Most of the folks I know have migrated from LJ to DW so I'm excited to get back involved in fandom! YOI is such a new fandom too! It's awesome seeing how excited everyone is about the anime.

[shades_of_hades]

Can you do things other than that on Tumblr? I think I've only ever used the app.

Really the new TOS on lj made this comm happen, so I guess something good came out of it, right?

Haha, I just sort of butted into this conversation, don't mind me.

[icicle33]

Well, you can def talk about anything yoi related in this comm. Not just recs, fic, and art. If you want to talk meta or a discussion or even maybe we can do a rewatch party. A friending meme? I'm really open to anything that members want to do. I just wanted to make more yoi friends to squee with, so I don't drive the other 2 mods crazy, who are the only friends I have that like yoi.

[prillalar]

A friending meme would be awesome!

[caeseria]

A rewatch party might be a lot of fun. I'm always up for a 678 run through of the anime...!!

And yes, we need all the fans to squee with so a friending meme might be awesome too.

[caeseria]

In no particular order, here are my favourites (I posted this on Tumblr last week, so my notes are attached!!):

Freeze Pop by delightedgurgle - YuYuu – Explicit (warning for underage) 1.5k
Premise: “Do you even understand what the term sexual means? If you suck then my win means nothing.”

**Yuri P takes one for the team and shows Yuuri K. how things are done. Yuuri & Yurio’s characterization in this is brilliant. One of the best YuYuu fics out there I’ve currently found on my travels through the A03.

A Fellow With a One-Track Mind by ken_ichijouji (dommific) – Explicit 4k
Victor decides in order to help Yuuri land quads more consistently, he should have some kind of reward system. (AKA Victor strips every time Yuuri lands a quad fic.)

**This is genius, and quite funny in places!

Maelstrom by feelslikefire – Explicit – 44k
Victor Nikiforov is poised to win gold in his fifth consecutive Grand Prix Final. He has the world at his feet, is unparalleled in the sport–right up until a snowstorm blows into Sochi, and he finds himself repeating the same day over and over and over. He stumbles over Yuuri Katsuki, and everything changes. (Or, the time loop au. Loosely based on Groundhog Day.)

**I can’t not rec this story, even if it is popular. Damn, this is awesome…I like the folk-tale aspect to the background story, and it’s a hugely absorbing read. Do give this a go if you haven’t yet!

Immaculate Dream, Made Breath and Skin by @rcmclachlan - Explicit - 3k
Almost half his life has been spent training for the day that Victor Nikiforov takes him to bed, so when it finally happens after the Grand Prix Final, Yuuri’s prepared. More than prepared: he’s ready. No one’s ever touched him as a lover, sure, but there’s nothing that he hasn’t already dreamed about doing or having done to him to make anything that could happen a shock. But apparently Victor’s sole purpose in life is to subvert all his expectations.

**This is about the hottest, filthiest thing I’ve ever read (which is saying something based on my own writing) and it’s freaking awesome. Book a bunk for once you’ve finished reading this. Maybe for the weekend.

am i dancing sexy yet (i can’t wait to make your body my own) by @notcaycepollard - Explicit - 1.7k
“Victor,” Yuuri murmurs. “What did you do, nights before a big competition? You never got nervous energy you couldn’t work off?” “Well,” Victor says like he’s considering. “To tell you the truth, times like that, I would mostly jerk off,“ and that’s enough to give Yuuri some ideas.

**Eros!Yuuri teasing Victor. Yum :)

The Boyfriend Experience by cryingoverspilledvodka - Explicit - WIP - 120k
Katsuki Yuuri is an accomplished escort at 23, operating under the pseudonym Eros, in Detroit. When one of his favourite clients sets him up with none other than world-renowned figure skater Victor Nikiforov, the delicate balance between Yuuri’s personal and professional life teeters ever closer towards ruin.

**Good lord, why are more people not reading this? The author says the full draft is finished, and chapters are being edited for publishing weekly. Totally absorbing, well-characterized, and the sex is smoking hot. Holy shit. Go read this. (if you are worried about Yuuri getting it on with OC’s or stuff, not to worry, this is strictly Victuuri, with past mentions of previous stuff).

Twenty-Five Hours by 0lizzybennet0 - Mature - 23K (WIP)
In which Yuuri spends a 25 hour flight next to Victor Nikiforov, skating legend, and feels it might simultaneously be the best and worst thing that has ever happened to him.

**Again with the why are more people not reading this??! Gah, I ADORE this story. I mainlined the whole thing yesterday and I can’t wait for the last chapter.

For the Camera by @noon30ish - Explicit - 41K (WIP)
In which Yuuri becomes a pornstar and is ‘training’ under the one and only, the Living Legend, Vitya.Or the fic where, for Yuuri, sex comes first and love comes after.

**JFC, I laughed my head off at the bad porn tropes. They’re all there, along with a compelling story line (IKR?) and Princess Bride references. I love this story. Porn with Feeling indeed!! GO READ THIS NOW.

five theories about victor "my husband” nikiforov (+ one fact) by @dadvans - General - 2.5K
No one knows the truth about the strange, well-paying man who comes into the bar three times a week and only talks about his husband. But everyone has their theories.

**This is one of the funniest things I think I’ve ever read. Not to be missed for brilliant catchphrases like “my husband’s husband” and “our dog”. You’ll see why. ;)

Hot Russian daddy fucks a horny Japanese slut [AKA Viktor Nikiforov/Yuuri Katsuki REAL sex tape leaked] by Krtek - Explicit - 15K
An extremely private video of Yuuri and Viktor gets posted online, sending the internet and general public into a shitstorm.

**I love social media fic, and this is one of the best. Strangely compelling, and not to be missed for the last chapter. I really enjoy seeing Victuuri from an internet POV. Do give this one a read, you won’t be sorry! This fic needs more love!

An Examination of Stamina by Viktor Nikiforov by Anonymous_Ostrich - Explicit - 4.5K
“Viktor…” Yuuri’s voice was low and gravelly, his teeth grazing the bend of Viktor’s neck, “Is it really okay to keep going?” His cock stirred inside of Viktor, still rock hard, still eager. The feeling of Yuuri’s semen trickling slowly out of his stretched hole made Viktor shiver, and he grabbed Yuuri’s chin in his hand, yanking his face up so that their eyes could meet.“I’ll say this once, Yuuri. Give me everything you’ve got. Don’t stop even if I beg for you to.”

**Ahem. *clears throat* THIS is the fic that made me hang my mouth open and thank the internet gods for this filthy, filthy, masterpiece featuring a fucked-out Victor Nikiforov. Boy, does Yuuri have legendary stamina. Woot!! <3

[icicle33]

Perfect thank you! I will also add this to the future masterlist of recs if that's okay with you?

[caeseria]

Absolutely, go right ahead!

[ashiiblack]

[caeseria]

[liljajune]
