The Moon, The Stars

Úvodní poznámka

It’s everything. For him to do that, it’s like body, mind, the moon, the stars. Everything. – Brian Orser.
Yuzu and his quaxel (quad Axel, 4.5 rotations). Nobody has landed it yet, he's obsessed with it. Nemohla jsem si pomoct, takže oficiální drabble je v políčku na drabble, druhou část dodávám do závěrečné poznámky jen tak pro zábavu - double drabble (přesně 200).

"How are you today, Yuzu?" Brian asks him after warm-up.

"Good," Yuzu responds. His warm-up triples felt solid. "Nothing hurts."

Brian hums, then nods. "Quad Axel?"

Yuzu all but bounces. "HAI!"

"Get in the harness, then."

Yuzu frowns. He doesn't do harness. It's embarrassing. "But - "

"No buts. Safety first."

He grumbles, but obliges. Once in the harness, Brian signals for him to go. He picks up speed. Air whips through his hair, exhilaration pumping through his veins. He jumps. One, two, three, fou-

The harness straps bite into his sides, holding him up to avoid the crash.

"Again," says Brian.

"Good!" says Brian.
Yuzu grins. This one was clean, with only the slightest tug from the harness.
Brian chuckles. "Go on, then."
Yuzu wastes no time getting out of the contraption.
He gives it his all, flying through his cross-overs. It's strange, setting up the normal Axel entry, but that's okay for now. He feels nothing but the wind, hears nothing but the blade as he leaps.
It feels like he's airborne forever.
Jason squeals.
"Wow!" yells Zhenya.
Gabby claps.
Brian high-fives Ghislain.
Yuzu stumbles down onto the ice, laughing, heart aflutter, so happy he could die.
"Again!" calls Brian.
