Who: Yuri and Victor

Broadcast: Unintentional video!

Action: Heron

When: In the month of December.

Yuri was on cloud nine practically after his little skate with Victor. He couldn't wait to have a big long practice on the rink and just skate his worries away like normal. And he and Victor can work on programs together. This place was turning into a sort of heaven.

Even more so when he woke up and found a gift for everyone in the cargo hold. And one for him! Wrapped.... strangely. The flamingos were adorable with the little scarves. He wasn't religious, he didn't do... christmas? Was this a christmas thing? Did the Atroma understand that? Well anyway, the gift was both wonderful and kind of creepy. It was his costumes from his last season skating. The costume from Yuri on Ice and the one from Eros... Victor's costume. And the silver medal. And... a new pair of skates complete with fresh blades and blade covers! He can hardly contain himself.

He rushes off to the shuttle, box in his arms and flies straight to the Heron. He doesn't even say hello to people he just runs down the familiar hallway.

"VICTOR! VICTOR WHERE ARE YOU?"

"Yuri?" Victor asks and pokes his head out from his room to the hallway. He can't help but be pleased to hear Yuri's voice calling to him. "Did something happen?" Yuri seems happily excited though, so Victor smiles as he talks.

"I was going to go to the cargo hold, there's a package for me I was told. Do you want to come?"

Yuri runs to him. "Yeah, I got a package too. It's full of skating stuff! Look! My costumes and my medal and new skates !" he's so excited he's bouncing. But then he is reaching for Victor's hand and hurrying to the cargo bay.

"I bet yours is skating stuff too." it even has the same silly paper with the flamingos and scarves... but... but it's big. Much bigger than his was. Well, Victor had more costumes surely. So that makes sense. Yuri sits on a nearby trunk.

"I can't wait to see, I wonder what costumes they gave you. Maybe it's the one from last year, 'Close to me' I love that one." Lies. He loves them all.

When Victor walks up to the box what he notices are the holes cut into the top. He isn't sure what to make of that until he takes off the lid and hears a very familiar bark before Makkachin pokes her head out over the edge of the box and licks him on the face.

She ends up tearing the box by leaning too heavily on the edge and then falls over on top of him, knocking him down.

At first, he's too stunned to realize what is fully happening, but then she's there and just begging to be pet and loved.

"Makkachin?" he asks, and then he laughs, and pets her carefully on the head. He doesn't seem to mind that he's sitting on the floor now with her on top of him. All that matters is that she's here.

Yuri isn't thinking about it. He expects sparkly fabric to rise from the box not brown fluffy stuff. He is so caught up in his expectations that he doesn't recognize the dog for what she is at first. It isn't until the box breaks and Makka is licking Victor that he sees it. He really... sees her. She's not a dream anymore, she's.... she's here!!

He slides to the floor and reaches out to touch her soft fur. He can't believe it. She's REAL. She licks him too and he throws his arms around her.

"Makkachin!" he sobs. He... may or may not be crying.

Makkachin bounces and turns to Yuri. Her tail wagging, she finally leaves Victor to go plant a lot of dog kisses on Yuri.

Victor is able to stand then, and he feels his own tears come to his eyes. Honestly, Yuri being so open with his emotions helped to bring Victor's to the surface.

He had missed his dog so much, and now she was here and he could pet her and give as much affection as she could stand.

Yuri had gotten so used to crying in front of Victor and just being expressive in front of him. He cried and yelled and laughed and... got drunk and proposed marriage of sorts and... won medals in front of him. It's nothing to weep in front of him now. He just picks Makkachin up and holds her, laying back on the floor with her while she licks him all over.

"Makaaaaaa Oh Makkachin I missed you so much, I dreamed about you all the time, girl.." He hugged her and laughed, tears still falling.

"Victor... are you okay?" he looks up at his love. He's got tears in his eyes. Yuri's voice softens. "Oh Victor... come on, sit with me."

Victor bends a finger against his lips to help him regain his composure. He clears his throat and then comes over. He sits next to Yuri and then reaches out to pat Makkachin on the head again.

"I'm so glad to see you, Makkachin."

He hugs the dog and just grins. "Oh Victor... This is the best thing ever." he hugs his fiance with one arm and Makkachin with the other.

"How long have you been down here, girl? You must be so hungry..."

Makkachin barks in response and Victor can't help but smile at the way that she always seems to understand Yuri. It had been so reassuring when he had relocated his life to Japan and found she had no trouble fitting in at their new home.

She had taken to Yuri almost as strongly as he had.

"Ah! That's a good point! We should go to get her something to eat!" He stands then, and offers his hand to Yuri to help him up. "And some water. And introduce her to my room."

He can't help it. He giggles and then nuzzles Makka right in her SWEET FLUFFY FACE. He takes Victor's hand and follows him out of the cargo bay all while chatting to her.

"We're gonna get you all fixed up, our big brave girl." he followed with Victor to the mess hall... er area... and he just hoped they had something for her to eat that wasn't gel or something. He prayed they had real meat for her because girlfriend deserves real food.

They don't really have a lot on the ship, but Victor is able to get something together. "I'm afraid it's not as good as you're used to, Makkachin, but we can go to the Iskaulit and get something better."

It's good that while Victor indulges her, Makkachin isn't too spoiled to turn up her nose at food. She seems happy enough to chop down on something. Victor ends up sitting next to her and patting her soft fur. There's room for Yuri to sit with him if he'd like.

Victor still seems rather emotional that his dog is back with him - almost like he can't believe it.
