As I promised in my follower celebration post, I wanted to spread some love through a fic rec post! And now I finally came around to make it! ＼(
˵´
♡｀˵)／I’m sorry for not going into detail what I loved about them here or leave comments here, because I’m trying to keep the post’s length under control. All of these 17 fics (and 2 comics) deserve a commentary and a detailed recommendation post of their own and I hope I’ll find the time to do that for all of them one day.
Please share this post (and the love), so more people can see the recommendations. Also if you start reading some of these, please consider leaving the writers a Kudos and maybe even a comment. We writers love feeling recognised and cherished! It motivates us to write on ♡
The order in which I name the fics is random.My Top Three Favourite Fics (all Multi-Chapters):
Listen, I love all three of them so much. I binge read them all when I found them. They all made me feel so many things and I might have cried now and then while reading any of them (for different reasons). Those are fics I would reread – I don’t even know how often. They are just so incredibly well done.

Summary: Victor gets just as drunk as Yuuri at the Sochi Banquet, and they
disappear together after the dance-offs. They wake up the morning after
with rings on their fingers, and pictures of them kissing after getting
married the night before are all over the tabloids… but neither of
them remembers a thing. They decide to stay married for a while for the
sake of Victor’s sponsorships, and in exchange, Victor coaches Yuuri
through nationals…- Dance of the Red Death by Strange and Intoxicating -rsa-

Summary: Find something to live for.Viktor Nikiforov
loved too much. What begins as a cough morphs into something that takes
the shape of an unseen monster hiding in his very blood. With the
Russian government scrambling to sweep under the rug the worst of a
crisis that’s been thirty-five years in the making and a society that
sees his disease as a death sentence, Viktor is left with figuring out
his own way to survive.It starts as a way to escape— a youtube
video of music and color and light, but quickly becomes something he
never expected when Yuri Katsuki teaches him that surviving is not
living. Yuri teaches him that living is taking the jump into unknown and
accepting all that comes with it.This is not a story of anger. This is not a story of fear. This is not even a story of pain.
This is a 21st Century love overcoming the obstacles of the 20th Century’s politics of fear.This is a story of life.

Summary: After forgetting the words to his song during a vocal competition as a
teenager, Yuuri Katsuki decided singing was not for him. Instead he went
to NYU to study English. He never expected Viktor Nikiforov, Broadway
star extraordinaire looking to direct his first production on the stage,
would ever find his up-and-coming lead… in him.
