Chapter 146: Reflections on Caligula
Victor's short program broke the youth group record, but his free skating was still several points behind the record set in the World Youth Championship last season.
When sitting in the kc area and seeing the score, Victor showed a puzzled expression, and quickly retracted, but when he walked to Yuuri's side, he was still a little depressed.
The silver-haired boy couldn't understand this result. He jumped two quadruple jumps in the free skating, and the quality of the jumps was quite good. His technical movements were not all perfect, but he basically made no mistakes. It doesn't make sense that his score is not as good as last year. ... You must know that his purpose of making such a programming is to keep refreshing his results from the beginning of the season, leaving Yuuri with an unbreakable record, but the goal was not achieved, which made Victor a little disappointed.
He knows that Yuuri has already practiced 4T, and his expressiveness is so good, as if his whole body is integrated with the music on the ice, as long as he can perform that quadruple jump in the competition and hold it in the second half, Then, in the case of being unable to break through, this sturdy pumpkin can really beat Victor's previous record before entering the youth group.
Yuuri, however, discovered the problem during Victor's competition. As a player who takes expressiveness as his advantage, he knows very well that Victor's performance method has made a breakthrough this season. But unfortunately, his free skating mood didn't match the content of the program.
Victor and Yuuri mentioned that his theme for this season is "What is love", the short program is used to express the longing for love and the love dance in dreams, the free skating is to express love|yu, and Victor's current state skating " The Waltz in E minor is very suitable, but the slide "Canigola" lacks some.
Canigola was a well-known tyrannical, desolate, immoral and senseless emperor in ancient Rome. After three years in power, he was hacked to death by the guards who finally couldn't bear him.
Regardless of how dizzy this buddy is, the content of Victor's "Canigola" comes from the story of Canigola Drusilla. It is said that Canigola's favorite woman is Drusilla, even though Des Lucilla was married, but he took her back and publicly made her his legal wife.He also made a will to designate her as his heir to the throne and estate when he was ill.
After Drusilla's death, he ordered a season of public mourning during which laughing, bathing, and eating with parents, wives, and children were capital offenses.
Therefore, the "Canigola" that Victor wants to express is a crazy man's love|yu, longing, plunder, and madness and grief after losing the love of his life.
To be honest, even Yuuri, who is good at acting, has never thought about performing this theme. One is that the age is not suitable, and the other is that the personality is not suitable. The child is used to this kind of crazy and neurotic performance. Will he be able to (and not He’s never been crazy, he’s not fully recovered from his mental illness), but he doesn’t like it, and it doesn’t affect his mental state well.
As for Victor...his short program is just right because his emotions are in place, but if he insists on using the current state to perform "Canigola", it will be a bit back to the old "P points all depend on acting, and The method of interpreting emotions from 1 point to 10 points" is not a step backward!
If Little Pumpkin was the referee, after watching such an amazing short program, and watching this free skating that obviously didn't put all his heart into it, he wouldn't give Victor a high P score.
Thinking of this, Yuuri handed over the thermos: "Alright, let's get ready for the blood test. After the test, we'll go to assistant coach Anton to see the score sheet. There will be awards later."
Victor snorted, took two sips of water, sat down and wiped his face with a towel, and muttered: "There are a lot of ice scum on the skates, Yakov told me to try to use the blade deeper, making me look like an ice shaving machine. "
He took off the knife cover, cleaned the skates and the knife cover carefully with a flannel cloth, and put it on again.
Then Victor remembered something—generally speaking, figure skaters would bring sweat towels and flannel cloths to wipe skates when they compete, but there are also less particular ones, like Yuuri, who has a cleanliness fetish, but he usually only brings a towel After wiping his face, he wipes the ice skates again, and the towel waits for washing, and he can continue to use it like this next time. He is a rough guy. I guess the ice skates and his face have the same place in his heart.
Yuuri didn't know why Viktor complained that he was a rough guy, but looked at his skates for a while, and asked aloud, "I remember you've worn these skates for more than half a year? Are they a little tight?"
Victor nodded: "Well, I feel a little bit like this recently. The skates are only 42 sizes, and my feet are 43. But now it's the season, so it's not good to change the skates immediately, otherwise it will be difficult to run in. Let's see if I can last Just the end of the season."
Seeing Yuuri's expression, Victor smiled and shook his hands: "Growing athletes will have time to change their equipment. I also have spare skates that are half a size bigger. Yuuri has also changed his skates twice a year since he arrived in St. Petersburg, right? And they are all white. Yes, the other shoes are also white, do you like white very much?"
Most male figure skaters wear black skates, so Yuuri's skates are quite conspicuous among the male skaters.
Yuuri replied without raising his head: "Mother Ling's hometown custom is that important elders in the family have to wear white shoes for three years after death, and Cathy's mother also passed away last year, so I probably have to wear white shoes until July 06." .”
Victor froze for a moment, but said nothing.
As a survivor, he is doomed to get used to eternal parting. Victor doesn't know exactly how many people Yuuri sent away, but he had already sent his father away before becoming a survivor.
Yuuri also knew that this topic was a disappointment, so he silently quickly and neatly folded a bunch of things into the box, pulled the zipper, pulled the lever, everything was packed in less than 10 seconds, and his movements were very agile.
Then he hissed and rubbed his eyes, Victor quickly grabbed his hand: "What's wrong? Something got into the eye? Don't rub it!"
He parted Yuuri's bangs, squatted and lowered his head to blow his eyes to the little junior brother: "Fufu—how is it? Are you feeling better?"
Yuuri gently pushed him away, and sighed helplessly: "It's okay, the bang pierced the eye, just go back and cut off the hair."
Victor: "Eh? Don't cut it, your hair is so beautiful, what a pity to cut it? I'll get you a hairpin when I get back. How about trying to grow long hair?"
Maybe it's the influence of Yuanzhu or something else, Yuuri's hair is so black that it turns blue, thick and thick, it feels better than silk, Victor likes it, but it's a pity that he hasn't dared to touch the little boss yet Cough cough.
Then he picked up the heavy backpack in his hand, and the two chatted and walked naturally, as if there was no one else around, and the other people in the left hand area stared at them dumbfounded.
Although everyone can't understand Russian and can't figure out what they are talking about, isn't the Asian boy showing Victor the box, sorting things, and Victor squatting and holding his face and blowing air, isn't it too intimate?

Christoph touched his chin, and narrowed his big Kazilan eyes facing the backs of the two seniors.
"Is it really that kind of relationship?"
Even if it wasn't that kind of relationship, Victor must have a crush on Yuuri, there's no doubt about it!
And their way of getting along is also quite interesting, Victor obviously has an arrow towards Yuuri, no matter how gentle and polite he is to others, in fact, the people he met in the morning can't match each other's face and name in the afternoon, but he only has a dissatisfaction with Yuuri Consciously attentive and delicate, Yuuri should be given a corner of his eye wherever he goes.
On the other hand, Yuuri took care of Victor very much. It wasn't that he was a petite servant, but that he took care of everything properly and generously, as if it didn't cost him anything, and he took care of it easily, and he didn't think it was a trouble. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
In short, the conversation between the two of them gave people a very natural feeling, and they looked very comfortable.
Because after careful calculation, they didn't say more than 20 sentences, and Chris didn't have the nerve to go over and ask "what's the relationship between you", but if they are really a couple, they must be rare in this age group and have a stable relationship The kind of couple.
After getting the small score sheet, as Yuuri expected, Victor's problem was indeed in the p score, judging by his expression after getting the small score sheet, I guess he realized the problem.
So Victor didn't seem very interested until he received the award. When other contestants invited him to play together, he politely refused, and then listened to the soundtrack of "Canigola" over and over again with his MP3.
Deputy coach Anton was in a good mood. He was very satisfied with Victor's results this time (broke the short program record and won a gold medal), and after Yuuri came, Victor became much more obedient and didn't mess with anything. This satisfies him very much.
Yakov is also very satisfied with Victor's performance this time. He does not make troubles and has achievements, which is much more worry-free than his brothers and sisters.
So the old coach said: "You go to Latvia by yourself, no problem?"
Victor shrugged, "No problem."
Then after returning from Latvia, Viktor took the initiative to propose to Yuuri that he wanted to enter the space, which surprised the little leader. Although Yuuri himself frequently picks up jobs, in fact, this kind of behavior of actively proposing to enter the space is very common in Caiji hard to see.
Moreover, if he is injured in the space, the main body will be greatly affected. If he is not careful, most of the next season will probably be scrapped, so no matter what reason Victor makes this request, it will easily end up being worth the candle.
You know that even Yuuri will reduce the frequency of pick-ups during the season, okay? @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"I know, but I think I need to be there."
Victor took a deep breath: "You know, Canigola is famous for being cruel and tyrannical. I need some bloody and scary elements as a reference for the show."
Yuuri still disagrees.
"These elements can also be found in movies, you don't have to go into space, it's too dangerous."
However, under Victor's insistence, Yuuri finally agreed to his request, perhaps because the little leader knew in his heart that if he was stuck in a bottleneck one day, he would probably react in the same way—do everything to find The possibility of a breakthrough.
And... If he hadn't allowed Anjie to focus on rock and roll back then, which caused him to enter the space too few times and lack of tempering, perhaps Anjie would not have died. Now that Victor is actively asking to enter the space, Yuuri actually has no reason to refuse.
If he is willing to endure hardship, then let's go.
Thinking of this, Yuuri conveniently contacted a client who was about to enter the sixth round, and took him and Victor into [6. Island of Dolls].
Originally, he just wanted to ask the little leader to take him to the low-level arena to see the bloody scenes and get some feeling, but Victor who entered the sixth round ahead of schedule: "..."
Little Pumpkin is too real, if I say enter the space, why don't you just lead me to the intermediate field?
Yuuri is currently in good condition, and it is natural to take the two of them through the sixth round with ease, so he not only brought them out safely in the end, but also snatched a prop — [Stand-in Doll], which can resist the attack of ghosts once.
Holding a palm-sized, patched, weird puppet with two black buttons for its eyes, he said softly, "It's the same as Succubus' Tears."
According to Yuuri’s experience summed up by taking so many jobs, the fifth game is the venue with the highest props obtained in low-level games, and the key items in the sixth game have a high probability of being defensive items, which he got in the sixth game [Succubus Tears] is such a prop, and it saved his life in the eighth scene.
Little Pumpkin blinked, walked to the door of the toilet, and asked Victor who was throwing up while holding the toilet: "How is it? This bloody scene can be ranked in the top ten of the scenes I have experienced. You have found the feeling." without?"
"vomit!"
Victor spat out his lunch, and replied vaguely: "No, it's a big loss... Vomit!"
This time, he entered the space with a prosthetic sniper body of a playboy. During this period, he encountered death three times. In order to protect himself, he used two courage marbles.
Yuuri was helpless: "...It's not a loss of money, come here, I will give you a doll, this time I performed well, this is a reward."
The little pumpkin held the weird puppet Seviktor in his hand, and lovingly touched his dog's head.
"I have already reminded you that this idea is unreliable. Let me tell you, instead of fighting with Caligula's violent and absurd attributes, you might as well change your perspective and perform from the perspective of Drusilla or Casonia. Woolen cloth."
Drusilla was Caligula's favorite woman in his life. It is said that Caligula was also regarded as a wise king when he first came to the throne. ), but when Drusilla died, Caligula's temperament changed drastically, and he embarked on the road of a fatuous tyrant.
It is not known whether Caligula became a faint king because his favorite woman died and his spirit was stimulated, or he planned to let himself go. Anyway, this lady plays an important role in Caligula's life. That's it.
And Casania's background is quite special - Caligula likes to rob other people's wives, and Casania is one of the robbed women. She is not young and beautiful, but she is slutty enough. Pull hit it off, is the most favored one.
Yuuri patted the unlucky guy on the back, and said, "Drusilla is Canigola's beloved, and Casonia is his best match in terms of desire. If it were me, I would I will play the role of Drusilla falling in love with Canigola in the first half of the performance, then leave Canigola in the swallow part, switch roles during the big jump, and then use Cassani in the second half of the free skating. Ya's role is positioned to seduce Canicola and have fun with him."
Victor raised his head and repeatedly retorted: "No, no, in my opinion, Canigola is a person who pursues love and lust all his life. This kind of performance also fits the theme of what is love this year. It would be inappropriate to change the role. .”
Yuuri tilted his head: "But the person who wants to know what love is is actually Victor, isn't he? I think your interpretation of the show is a process of searching for what love is, and you can still express love and desire by changing roles. ah."
Victor was persuaded.
His heart was full of thoughts like "Oh, it's Yuuri who is good at acting", "He really understands me", "I didn't expect Yuuri to have such a deep understanding of my program", but his biggest voice was really... …
"Yuuri."
"Well, what happened?"
"You have such a good idea, why didn't you say it earlier!"
Victor grabbed his filth-stained hair, wanting to cry, but didn’t it mean that he entered the space early and suffered a lot?
The author has something to say:
Still 30 comments can summon the second watch~
Mr. Gua made up his mind to find the right time (not to affect Victor's game but give him a hard time) to attack Victor, but in terms of thinking he fits well with Vicha, he understands Vicha very well, and even has a deep understanding of Vicha's program. The thought was so profound that the show performer himself was surprised, and when they were still getting along, they unconsciously made other people (such as Chris) feel that they had eaten dog food.
Therefore, it is not without reason that Wei Qia dared not confess and even concealed his liking, but at the same time worked hard in action.
