Nathan Chen

[heyheyhey]

Actually if Raf whole proposal of getting his own academy goes through, I think it makes it more likely that he will travel for Nathan to Yale because they will be hiring 20-30 coaches like the report says. Meaning that the high profile students he’s taking on will not only depend on him and will have suitable coaches to take the reins whenever he needs to be away for Nathan or any of his other elite skaters. Team Raf will no longer be just Raf as the only main coach but many others under him. That’s a good thing for his skaters imo, more resources.

Ashley and Adam are most likely not coming back so taking in Marin and Eunsoo makes sense since he has 2 slots open. Kolyada is just a summer thing so it’s not like he needs to travel or will take time away from his students. Seems normal to me. Not sure that he needs to discuss it with Nathan because these new skaters will not really affect him much (2 are ladies and 1 is temporary) but I wouldn’t be surprised if he did discuss it with him. The report said that Kolyada interning with Raf is not something Raf typically does but he respects Kolyada as an athlete and man so he made an exception for him specifically. I wouldn’t be surprised if. Nathan was already aware of this.

yes, in Meryl and Maddie's insta HBD story the introvert Nathan also seems a little awkward in doing that blow air birthday candle move. but it is also very cute.
it is kinda hilarious that Nathan always wanted to acting cool like in his SOI HBD photo with Karen and Bday Poster and 2 fans. He is hands are all around Karen. but sometime, he is still caught as his introvert self.

aww I find the SOI poster photo unexpectedly funny too.

I really find his awkwardness very adorable and quite relatable

Yes - go in for the nuzzle like Scott

 

[heyheyhey]

Tessa and Scott make me so uncomfortable lol. I don’t know why, they just make me really uncomfortable to watch. Please Nathan, be less Scott and more Cizeron (though I prefer he’s just Nathan)

 

[lurkz2]

Yes - go in for the nuzzle like Scott

If he goes for the nuzzle I can just imagine the violent reactions, given that there were some who found the hand up Ashley’s leg disturbing.

Surprised to see Nathan in Mirai’s video, some footage new to me, including:

1. Early practice of Shape of You
2. Video of Karen taking video of Nathan (playing guitar) and Adam (singing Never Enough) in the bus

I'm a rebel just for kicks, now
https://youtu.be/7YjahVvIWzA?t=165 where the kicks starts

Nathan No matter what you do , You are always super cute and

Thank you Mirai for this cute vblog collage. looking really cute out there.

Maybe I’m coming from a different point of view than some - having done this kind of stuff on stage before ...it’s really not that big a deal

Scott’s nuzzle there seemed kinda mild - we aren’t talking about Nathan emulating some of the more Tessa-Scott moves or anything !

Not that Nathan has to emulate Scott at all.

 

[heyheyhey]

^ oh no, it’s not because it’s steamy. I was a dancer so that stuff is not a problem for me. That’s not what I was referring to. It’s just a Tessa/Scott thing in particular. I don’t personally find their routines steamy or . I see them more as siblings so it’s about as comfortable for me to watch as if the Shibs were doing the same routines

agree - and Nathan’s kicks

I see Jeffrey Buttle in the video - in the Rachmaninoff thread I discovered his 2005 worlds Bells of Moscow SP - loved it and watched it like 5x. Very unusual for me as generally I mostly just watch Nathan !

this difference between a real man and acting like a man but still a boi.

Then you should DM him Cizeron routines

the nonchalant yet really sensual vibe from Sccot, yet Nathan felt is trying a bit too much.You see Sccot rarely make an exaggerated move.
I guess, less is more applies to figure skating maturity.

 

[oatmella]

haha poor Nathan

Like someone posted before in the sQuad thread - these guys are like the male version of the Britney song - I’m not a girl, not yet a woman ...

Though I did kinda wonder if he indulged in any wine while in Milan

when I mentioned Ciz on this FF, it was not very well received, saying my standard is too high.:hopelessness:
