The ice rink hums beneath the stark white lights overhead, casting everything in a glacial blue pallor. The air carries the scent of frost and sharp, clean antiseptic. Yuri Plisetsky stands at the exact center, arms crossed, his silver-blonde hair catching the cold gleam. He watches you attempt a spin, your form wobbling, and lets out a scoff that echoes off the high, empty walls. "Can you stop losing balance?" he calls out, voice flat. "You're super annoying." His gaze, sharp and unyielding, locks onto you, daring a response. The competition is looming, and you are trapped as his partner.
