[beautiful_monster]

No. That's not how it works.

[fourlevels]

But isn't that what Yuuri and I are doing?

[beautiful_monster]

Being engaged is different.

[fourlevels]

It's making up a family together. A new one.

[beautiful_monster]

Yeah, but that's just for the two of you.

[fourlevels]

No reason why you can't be part of more than one family.

[beautiful_monster]

Viktor...

[It's hard to say for certain whether he's growing irritated by the topic or if he's actually touched by it. Odds are he has no idea which it is either.]

[fourlevels]

So how long do these need to bake?

[beautiful_monster]

[He turns back to the pirozhkis with a grumble, glad for the change in subject.]

Not too long. Just twenty minutes.

[fourlevels]

To make it rise, right?

[beautiful_monster]

Yeah, that's right.

[fourlevels]

Is there anything else we do in the meantime?

[beautiful_monster]

No. Now we just wait.

[fourlevels]

... Want to go over your programs?

[beautiful_monster]

Oh—sure, but we should set a timer so we don't forget these.

[fourlevels]

Ah, good point. Don't these phones have a stopwatch app or something?

[beautiful_monster]

They should with how advanced everything else in this world is.

[He pulls out his phone to fiddle with the apps on it.]

[fourlevels]

[ Viktor does the same, tapping through the options. ]

Clock, alarms ... Ah! Timer, perfect.

[beautiful_monster]

Great! It should be enough time to go over the choreography once or twice.

[fourlevels]

[ Viktor half-sits, half-leans against the table rather than sitting in the chair. ]

Were you going to do the same programs here or were you thinking to do something new?

[beautiful_monster]

I was thinking it should be the same ones until I can get a sponsor or two... It'll be easier to draw one in with programs I already know, but I want to prepare new ones to use when we make it to the international competitions.

[fourlevels]

Mmm, the seasons seem to be about the same here though I'm still looking for information about the equivalent of the Grand Prix qualifications. We have some time to prepare for international circuits at least. Really, you could prepare two new programs by the fall if you wanted.

[beautiful_monster]

...How many programs are you going to do?

[fourlevels]

Three, at bare minimum of course. Short program, free skate, and an exhibition. I'll come up with at least one alternative for each though.

[beautiful_monster]

Then that's what I'm going to do too.
