Well yeah form-fitting.
Extra fabric gets in the way of jumps and spins, drags you down with wind resistance.

You've never seen our costumes?

[sleight_of_hand]

[ ...that made sense, all things considered. He'd been smart enough so far to figure out that a lot of what skating was involved simple physics, though he hadn't sat down and done the actual math for it. Maybe he'd check out a college physics book from the library and figure it out sometime -- that was something much more interesting to study than Dooku's stupid politics. ]

No I haven't.
Like I said, I haven't paid much attention to figure skating until now.

[fourlevels]

I only have one costume here that I could show you, but the others have three with them. You could probably look more up online too.

[sleight_of_hand]

Hunh, you got lucky enough to arrive with them? I'll have to see them some time.

[ There's a long pause, before: ]

Hey Viktor? There's really no competitions and stuff like this for amateurs, hunh?

[fourlevels]

[ Viktor had been about to reply to the first part when the second comes in. He deletes it to change his reply. ]

Probably not for someone at your level, no. You thinking about competing?

[sleight_of_hand]

what
me
no way
theres no way id ever be able to

[ He totally thought about it. ]

[fourlevels]

Haha asking for a friend then?

[sleight_of_hand]

That's right, yeah!

[ When did he become such a bad liar? Probably around the same time a certain figure skater started making him think about something other than his own stupid self for once. ]

[fourlevels]

Sure, sure~ I can look into it,
but I doubt there'd be much offered in Florida anyway.

[sleight_of_hand]

Yeah........

Probably would need to go to the cities further north or something. Might be something there.

[ A pause. ]

Not that I've poked around this sort of thing.

I was just curious.

For a friend.

[fourlevels]

You know it's okay to admit you like it, right? There's nothing embarrassing about a new hobby.

[sleight_of_hand]

It's not that.
I'm more worried about my intentions being taken the wrong way.

[ Because you know. A certain brat seemed to be fond of doing that. ]

[fourlevels]

[ A couple minutes pass before Viktor's next reply comes like he's debating on how to answer that. ]

Why not ask Yuuri or Yura for their advice on it?

[sleight_of_hand]

One of those is the reason why I'm so worried about pursuing this.

[fourlevels]

But I think that's exactly why you should ask them.

[sleight_of_hand]

Katsuki-kun, maybe.
Yurio is just going to accuse me of being a groupie again.

[fourlevels]

But competing would show that you're serious about it, that it's not just a hobby or fad for you.

[sleight_of_hand]

[ There's a long pause before Adachi answers. ]

idk
You said yourself it'll be awhile before I'd even be able to compete.
I can't even do simple looking stuff without falling on my ass.

[fourlevels]

So you'll just quit?


[ There's that Viktor Nikiforov bluntness again. ]

[sleight_of_hand]

well no
I'm just not sure if I can do anything with it.

[fourlevels]

Do you like skating?

[sleight_of_hand]

[ Again, there was a long pause. ]

yeah

[fourlevels]

Then that's the only reason you need.

[sleight_of_hand]

[ ...goddammit, Viktor, how do you do this to him so easily? ]

Okay.
I guess I can try and see if I can do what I want to do with it then.

[fourlevels]

What do you want to do with it then?
