Summary
They say never meet your heroes—because they might ruin the carefully curated pedestal you’ve put them on.
Maybe they’ll shatter your illusions with a single offhand comment. Or, maybe—just maybe—they’ll offer you something so bafflingly tone-deaf that you’ll find yourself questioning every life choice that brought you to this moment. And maybe they’ll turn out to be alarmingly human, with quirks and flaws that make them real in ways you weren’t ready for.
But then again, heroes have a funny way of surprising you, even when you think you’ve got them figured out. Whether that’s a good thing… well, that’s another story entirely.

Summary
“Yellowcard, Arctic Monkeys, and Neon Trees in one lineup? Can’t say no to that.” Beka didn’t even bother asking, just sent the flyer of the event like he already knew Yuri would come—like he already knew what he needed before he did. And he’d bought the tickets, making it impossible for Yuri, now twenty-one, to refuse. But it wasn’t just about the festival or escaping the realities of a global pandemic in 2021.
This wasn’t just an invitation to the concert; it was something else entirely—a ticket to anywhere.
Anywhere away from the noise in his head, the exhaustion pulling him down, and the unanswered questions hanging between him and Beka. After everything, after crossing lines in their friendship that felt blurred but not broken, he didn’t know where they would land. Maybe they’d crash and burn, or maybe they’d stay the same stuck in the maddening in-between.

Summary
As a teenager, Viktor’s life was filled with gifts—grand, beautiful, and yet hollow—unable to touch the ache for something deeper. What he truly longed for was the kind of love he gave so freely to his loyal poodle, Makkachin.
Years later, on a quiet December night, amidst ribbons and laughter, Viktor learns that some wishes whispered to birthday candles don’t fade—they wait, growing quietly, until they come true in ways he never imagined.

Summary
The 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics are here, but this time the pursuit of gold isn't just about landing the perfect quad—it’s a battlefield of emotions where fierce rivalries and buried bitter feelings collide on the ice. As the world watches athletes push their bodies to the limit, an equally intense drama unfolds off the sport, where pride and passion blur the lines between love and hate. In a competition where every glance and move is scrutinized, they must navigate the thin ice between their dreams for victory, complicated feelings and the reality of life moving forward as it threatens to break them.
In this stage is where Otabek Altin, the soon to be retired Hero of Kazakhstan, meets his most fierce and spiteful rival to date: Yuri Plisetsky, with whom he hasn't spoke for almost a year. How could their relationship really go from best friends, to lovers and then enemies?
As everyone notices the tension in the air, some other stories unfold around them.

Summary
Sometimes Viktor Nikiforov just wanted to feel like he didn't need to skate and smile away the fear of being discarded back to his hometown with parents who didn't second guess nor cry when he was practically given away to the Russian Athletics Federation. But skating was his lifeline. The only thing that made him feel alive, besides music and his ambition. So he just kept smiling and winning while the hollow emptiness kept growing inside him.
He was thirteen when an envelope with pink flower stamps and an address written with weird symbols appeared at the bottom of his fan mail.
''You can just be Viktor and I can be your friend. Would you like that?''
A spark fluttered inside him.
