I am so proud of Yurio. Look at him, this boy is fifteen years old. At fifteen he won gold and created a new record.
Look at him, this boy is crying his eyes out. Yuri Plisetsky, Mr. I-have-no-emotions Plisetsky. This boy put his heart and soul into this performance. Because he cares, dammit. Yes, he wanted to win but he cares about Yuri and he doesn’t want him to retire. He idolized Yuri and doesn’t want his performance to go to waste even after Yuri’s flawless performance.
This boy is so young but he’s already had so much pressure put onto him. He feels like he’s alone and has no one to confine to, so he bottles it all up to the point were it turns into anger. He’s not a bad kid okay???
He put his blood, sweat and tears into this performance to the point where he has surpassed his limit. This boy has done so much, he’s practiced so hard and done so much.
You know how emotional this was for him?? He thought about all his family and friends: his grandparents, his coaches, Yuri, Victor, Otabek. He just wants them to see how much he cares about them and he just wants to put his message across that he loves them and all he ever wanted was for them to be proud of him.
He’s worked so hard, and felt so alone??Like this poor child.
Honestly, fuck anyone who thinks he’s heartless and a brat of a child.
Yuri Plisetsky deserves the world.
