Blue Violets

When Otabek first saw him he'd had the breath stolen from him.
Soft, pink lips; a slim, almost frail build; and silky, golden hair that fell in waves down to the small of his back. The thing that caught Otabek's eyes and held him frozen in place, though, were the man's own.
Striking green eyes that seemed to pierce your soul and see through your body were the first things that Otabek fell in love with. Cold and calculating at first, and warm and soft at the end, they were the one aspect of Yuri that he knew he would never lose.

• A vaguely historical Otayuri AU.
• Partially inspired by "Dyin' Ain't So Bad" from Bonnie and Clyde and just prostitution AUs in general.
• Because of the gist of this story: this universe is one where prostitution is legal and regulated in 1917 New Orleans (the setting).
• Don't be mistaken by the premise of the story: this isn't a smut-filled book-- tbh the concept scares me.
• This is essentially the well(ish) written prostitution AU no one asked for.
• Give it a chance and--
• Enjoy!
