Wonder what story she's telling in the second one
I'd love to know it too... 😊
But if @kosto_realm is right (and so is google translator), in the first one she says (in her cute, fast and high-pitched voice) "you were worried that you were not in a dress, but we were all in dresses, and now Sasha is worried that she is in a dress, but we are not". 😊

She has a tattoo there. During the summer it was visible in some of her insta posts and a fan was asking about it. She said it's not a real one, but obviously it is. In this picture you see a glimpse of it: https://www.instagram.com/p/CDiTbQXpKpR/

I don't know why she covers it. Maybe it is something personal or figure skating is too conservative or because she is not 18 yet...
The tattoo is on the inner side of her left lower arm, which is covered by a small tape, but as you can see it in this picture, those tapes cover much bigger part of her arm and apparently they have nothing to do with the tattoo.

Here you can see the small tape that covers the tattoo:

(In Kazan, at the Cup of Russia, she covered it the same way)

Maybe she got more tattoos in the meantime? 😈
 
I wonder why her left arm was taped... 🤔

Alyona the teenage rebel got herself a tattoo around spring, since it is visible in older photos.

Apparently it reads Sequitur cor tuum "He/She/It follows your heart" which is either grammatically incorrect Latin, since "Follow your heart" should read Sequere cor tuum ....

Yes, finally we now know what the tattoo is about: https://www.instagram.com/p/CIFz6yQpXPA/ 😊

We discussed it before that she uses a small tape to cover the tattoo, but it's not clear why the other parts of her arm are covered by the tapes...
 
Does it mean that Aliona doesn't fulfill the selection criteria for the national championship? (participation of 2 stages required)

yes, but with as many national team members who have it and are missing competition i would think Rusfed would make exceptions, or count Rostelecom as a 2nd stage for those who were there. it wouldn't be fair if they didn't, it's out of the athletes control.
 
Oh no, just read the news... but the way they approach it it's really no wonder so many skaters got it... :palmf:
I just read about Aliona testing positive for covid in the Russian ladies thread. I hope it's the kind where she tested positive but does not get symptoms and it's testing negative soon.

For Nationals the Russian Federation cannot have all four disciplines in the facility at the same time. Break it down over a couple days do pairs then dance then men's than ladies and in between you clean out the entire facility and locker room with a professional cleaning company. The Russian Federation has to think out-of-the-box now what happened with the Rostlecom cup was a travesty and parents of these kids should be pissed off the kingdom come.

so if the next Winter Olympics Olympics take place it's only 14 months away and many of Russia's top ladies and top pairs who are expected to be gold medal contenters are sick with covid-19. Not good. It could have been avoided in some cases and the Russian sports czars and the figure skating Federation czars should be embarrassed. And it looks even worse people because Japan Korea America Canada not having the same massive covid-19 problem with their figure skating Federations.
 
The problem isn‘t qualifying to Nationals. At this point, they have no athletes if they only let those compete who skated at two cups. The problem is that she‘s now in quarantine for at least two weeks. Nationals are in about three weeks. There‘s no real way she can get back in form to compete there. Such a shame. I at least hope she has a mild form of the virus and doesn‘t get seriously ill.

Get well soon, Aliona! :pray:
