*passes out some chocolate to everyone who has some nerves going on*

I took extras to power my bad connection and shady stream. Hope you have more where that came from.

 

[Alchamei]

Oh heck I just realised... Yuzu is coming!

Will he really try the 4A?! Can he land it?!

Will the world shake on its axis if he does?!

Not this time. Can't do it SP.

 

[bartlebooth]

Omg, Nikolaj Majorov Q??!!

Talk about making the most out of being sent!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Ohhhh, I was reminded that No Pooh wave will happen

Ah yes important PSA: Pooh has been replaced by an omlette

 

[anonymoose_au]

And Group 4 is here.

Time to pray.

I just realized that 6/8 favourites are all in the second last group….. with 2/6 in the final group. Who do I root for? I have too many favourites all at once.

I guess I’ll root for the defending champion Yuzuru and the defending silver medalist Shoma. Junhwan and Matteo, good luck! And Andrei, my favourite of the three Russians and Deniss bringing up the rear of my favourites in this group.

I don’t have to worry about Yuzuru and the 4A in the SP. So, I’m happy with that. I just want Shoma to skate as well as he did at the team event.

 

[Alchamei]

Where is Yuzuru?

"We kindly remind you that gifts and flowers offered to the skaters are not allowed due to COVID-19 restrictions.."

Who wants to take bets that we'll still see a Pooh plush?

Winnie the Pooh is actually banned in China. Xi Jinping banned him because people said that he looked like him and were making fun of him so yeah.

 

[satine]

Alright everyone, it's about to go down. HUGS!

 

[Mista Ekko]

K now I'm starting to get nervous

 

[cheerknithanson]

I'm probably going to head off after Yuzuru skates. Sad I won't watch Jason (Today, the 7th marks 8 years since I became a fan of him).

 

[3dsushi]

Go Shoma! Go Matteo! Go Yuzu! Go Junwan!

 

[satine]

I totally forgot about that! I remember it making news a few years back

 

[Hyena]

Oh I loooove the back of Yuzu's costume.

 

[Ichatdelune]

NO OLLY IT'S NOT GOING TO BE FUN IT'S GOING TO KILL ME

 

[Tinymavy15]

Yuzuru back on olympice ice!

 

[Alchamei]

Dennis has a beaming smile!

 

[moonvine]

Ooh, I'd like one too, @Ichatdelune, if you don't mind.

Me too!!!

 

[rollerblade]

That flat notPooh tissue box is cracking me up!!
