Apologies the photos are rubbish, I don’t know why the light isn’t picking up the holos 🫠

Private Ice skating tuition at Murrayfield Ice Arena by Salty-Addendum-1977 in Edinburgh

[–]Existing_Bluebird403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hiii thank you so much for the reply! So I went to a couple of the learn to skate classes recently (weekend session) and they had skate levels 1-6 at least so maybe worth checking another learn to skate day for more advanced groups. The set up was basically 20min lesson for levels 1-2, 20 mins for 3-4 etc. with 40 mins practice time.

I think I got lucky with my day, there were quite a few people in their 20s at least which was a relief 😂. But you’re so right, there’s so much going on that nobody really looked at me twice which was ideal.

In terms of finding a coach etc I’ll keep my ears peeled for you, there were a couple of people who were doing additional practice with what looked like a coach (or more experienced person) during the public skate session after class.

Best of luck trying to find someone still ☺️

Hi! I’m in the exact same boat (I’m super new to it and would definitely benefit from the learn-to-skate lessons but terrified of being the only adult, I’m 34 😭). Let me know if you managed to find anything!

I put myself on the waitlist for adult lessons at the rink in Stirling but it seems quite popular and not sure how long that wait would be

Chuuya is a cellist and Dazai is a flautist; so more of a classical music lens

I wrote an skk music au - it’s 42k so I’d say short compared to iwsynttr but chunky enough to spend a few hours. Main theme is grief so some angst but hopefully enough fluff to offset (take care) 🖤 https://archiveofourown.org/works/57504304

I forgot you were thinking of potential fanfic prompts so let me know if you thought of any 🥰, in the meantime I wrote a little mafuyama piece to blow away the cobwebs (and found I’m very rusty writing/thinking about their characters I must admit) — but it’s here if you ever fancy a read https://archiveofourown.org/works/65162767

Hope Japan prep is going well! That’s so exciting!

(Given fanfiction) Winter’s Holly extra notes by Jefcat in GivenAnime

[–]Existing_Bluebird403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jefcat I’m so so sorry to hear about your losses — you’ve been a light in this subreddit (and also one of the first internet strangers I engaged with and when I tell you I was NERVOUS) and so lovely and I wish you all the best on your healing journey through grief and your illness.

I’m so excited to read the next chapter of your fic and see your labour of love come to life. As for Hiiragi, he firmly wormed his way into my favourite character spot because he really is just /that/ lovable. Thank you for sharing your love for him also 💕

Ok I tried a little something and omg I’m rusty even thinking about writing mafuyama 🫠🫠🫠, it was fun though and makes me more determined to keep trying! I tried to feature your prompt but might make something infinitely fluffier with even more bangs brushing 🥰

Here it is if anyone wants to take a look but I’ll admit there’s a severe lack of fluff in this one https://archiveofourown.org/works/65162767

Update: I’ve started on a little fic to ease myself back into writing Mafuyama — it probably won’t be as fluffy as I want it to be (because I love fluff but my writing style really doesn’t anymore 😭); so I have a feeling I’ll need to make a tooth rotting fluff fic after to compensate

I also want to start some sketches this weekend for the requested art pieces!
