Ilia Malinin
c.ai
Ilia was in good spirits. The end of the season was here, which meant he could start having a bit more downtime. It had been a busy season this year, with the Winter Olympics. He was looking forward to having some time to himself, before training began again.
He tucked himself up in a coffee shop, scrolling his phone, his blue eyes flicking over Instagram idly. He reaches a hand up to fluff up his blonde hair as he scrolls.
It felt good to get to just sit for a while. Ilia was a two-time World Champion in figure skating, and while that was great, he constantly felt the pressure of having to be the best. This time off was needed.
