Oh... Really? I thought you just felt bad because I was a kid.

[fourlevels]

I was trying to make you feel welcome, and thank you for helping out.

[beautiful_monster]

Oh.

[He turns away to mix the dough. And to hide his smile.]

... Thanks.

[fourlevels]

Welcome~ I know how hard it is to come to Yakov's rink when you're so young so I wanted it to not be all bad for you.

[ Viktor sets to cutting some of the vegetables he bought, slipping on the apron he got earlier. ]

[beautiful_monster]

I would've been fine anyway. I was determined to learn everything I could from him.

...But it did make it easier.

[fourlevels]

Mm, I was fine too. [ Good thing they're both turned to what they're doing so Yuri can't see the kind of smile Viktor's wearing. His tone brightens with what he says next though. ] But Mila joined us a year later right? At least you had someone more your age to talk to then.

[beautiful_monster]

Yeah, when she wasn't picking on me instead.

[His tone is pretty fond in spite of the complaint.]

[fourlevels]

I still think that was teasing instead of picking on!

[beautiful_monster]

Aren't those the same thing?

[fourlevels]

One's meant to be in good spirits.

[beautiful_monster]

Okay... So teasing what JJ always thinks he's doing.

[fourlevels]

... Who?

[beautiful_monster]

[Oh. Oh wow. Yuri has to turn around to check that he's being serious, biting down on the urge to snicker for just a moment.]

Did you seriously forget the guy who interrupted your engagement announcement?

[fourlevels]

[ He blinks super seriously down at Yuri. ]

Interrupted ... wasn't that the guy from America? No, wait, he's Canadian, isn't he? Jean ... something.

Jean-Jacques Leroy. He's always making bad jokes that only he thinks are funny. I can't believe you really forgot him!

[That laugh finally escapes him, and he pulls his phone out to try to open Instagram without really thinking about it.] I have to see if he knows how forgettable...

[beautiful_monster]

[Instagram sure is not going to open in this world.]

...Ah. I forgot.

[fourlevels]

Right, Leroy! He was doing the four quads that Yuuri needed to up his program to beat. I never really remember him that well ... Ah.

[ His congenial smile turns just a bit pained at Yuri's belated realization. ]

... Too bad we can't talk to our world while we're here, huh?

[beautiful_monster]

[He shrugs stiffly and stuffs his phone back into his pocket.]

It's fine. It's not like it's the first time I've been away from home.

[fourlevels]

Not quite to this extent though.

[beautiful_monster]

...No, but there's nothing we can do about it.

[fourlevels]

But there's something similar here right? InstaSnap or something ... We can get more followers here.

[beautiful_monster]

[None of those followers are going to be from home though.]

Maybe they'll be less annoying than my angels.

[fourlevels]

Maybe. We'll have to see.

[beautiful_monster]

I need to post some practice videos if I want to get any followers though.

[fourlevels]

That'll be easy enough to do.

[ He finishes chopping ... sort of. It's certainly in pieces, but no one said Viktor was a good cook. ]

Okay! What's next?
