Facing Phantoms, Pursuing Flowers

Team Support

The actual gala was so much fun...

Maxim Trankov pushed Yuzuru to do a Quad Loop which he had been training in practice.
And of course, Yuzuru landed the beautiful jump!
Then, Boyang Jin went and did a flawless Quad Lutz!
And, Shoma attempted a Quad Flip, which he had been trying too, and landed it fabulously. (Daisuke didn't actually do that, but well, a girl can dream)

So they had a Quad Lutz and Flip and Loop! Wow, special treat to the fans in Barcelona.

And apart from that, they obviously had to have a traditional Quad battle at the end of the gala.
Javi actually tripled his Quad Toe Loop only, but Yuzuru pushed him back and told him to try again, like 'No no, we are not leaving until you do that Quad Toe of yours, because we all know you can do it'
Then Javi did it again and this time, succeeded.

When the music was playing 'Don't Stop Me Now', which was Tatsuki Machida's Exhibition program last year, Yuzuru kept dancing to it and you could just tell that he was so happy, and his euphoric energy spreaded to all the skaters and fans in the CCIB that day.

And at one point, when Yuzuru locked eyes with Shoma, he imitated the moment where Tatsuki thrusts his hips and points his finger at Shoma singing, and the poor baby Shoma was just embarrassed to the maximum. Talk about being victimized by Yuzu! (See attached Video)

Yuzuru skated to Requim of Heaven and Earth for his exhibition and you could tell he was tired. He popped a jump, but that is just a reminder that he can also fail jumps at times.

Javi, on the other hand, owned the crowd before he stepped on the ice , with his Super Javi Exhibition.

Melody's exhibition was of 'Let It Go' from Frozen and she skated like a real Ice Queen.

And at the very end of the Exhibition, Yuzuru went and pretended to play the electric guitar and went on his knees sliding on the ice....

Moments later, it was the closing ceremony and photo taking session. (I don't know what to call it)

Melody was all dressed and ready to go waiting by the lift, when she met Gracie, Ashley and Daisuke.

'Hey, Dy! Congrates on the bronze medal at your first Senior Grand Prix Final!' Said Daisuke.

'Ah thank you!'

And as they chatted away... Shoma and Sota appeared together walking side by side just like best budes. Shoma teasing Sota this time, 'You like her, eh?'

'What! What makes you say that!' Replied a tainted pink Sota.

'You are not denying it, hahaha' laughed Shoma even more.

Melody turned around and saw them, 'wow, don't you two look spiffy!'

'Ah, you do too!' Laughed a nervous Sota.

'Why are you so red?' Asked Melody.

Thankfully, Sota was saved from answering that as the lift arrived with a 'ding'. But Shoma turned to Melody and winked quickly before turning away again. Melody frowned and thought, now what is that boy up to and what is with the wink?

At the gala, they met new friends and old ones.
'You're supposed to sit with your team, not with me, Dy' whispered Yuzuru.

'But aren't you my Team? Are we not Team Orser?'

'No, not coaching teams, sit with your country team. So you'd be sitting with Patrick'

'Oh, now where is th-, oh never mind then' Said Melody to herself as Yuzuru had just went away to talk to Miki Ando and Javi.
