[To be completely honest, Otabek was a little upset with himself. If he had just pushed a bit harder he might have been able to edge JJ off the podium but even with the mess ups, the Canadian's technical score was a hard one to beat.
Next year. Next year he was going to get one of those medals.
And hey, he'd gotten to see Yuri take gold and he was happy for the other--extremely happy. So there was at least that.
Milling about on the edges of the masses of people, Otabek was sipping absently at a drink he'd managed to snag when he caught sight of Phichit. While he'd never spoken in length to the other outside of that dinner with everyone, there was something about the other skater that was just..pleasant. Which is why Otabek raises his glass a bit in greeting when the other wanders close.]
