*imagines Yuzu popping up on instagram one day and his first post is: "Hi! I have instagram now! Btw, here's a quad axel! Enjoy!" *

 

Truth is, in a way I love how popular and successful Yuzu without having SNS, a website, an agency or even actual managers that we know of... It also means he probably has full control of his image and activities, more than he'd have if he had any of those things (he wouldn't have time to keep track of SNS or micromanage a website and an agency or managers would just tell him not to worry his pretty head about things unrelated to skating and make decisions for him). OK, he probably hands a lot of control to his mother, but still. She's his mother, not some stranger.

 

Oh yes. Now I think back, Yuzu is probably more efficient at reading English than speaking it (he said he takes English Uni courses via E-Waseda courses). He will probably understand 90% of the english comments and I would hate it if he saw the comments from the trolls (he's a lurker so he will lurk on his own instagram comments if he ever makes one), so maybe it's best he never makes one haha.

He could probably post and block comments every time (I think Instagram has that option?), but he could still get tagged to stuff and I'm not sure he could block messages, so... yeah. Better not. On the other hand, if he weren't so 'mysterious' and private, it could be that some fans would stop being so desperate... but I don't think it's worth it to try it.

 

That said, depending on his plans post-retirement (I know what I dream of for him lol), he might then open a website, at least, to further promote those plans.

 

Javi has a website, but it's not really up to date (I just checked it yesterday and it even has errors).

It's been awhile since I played with fire so I'm just going to spread this here. It's probably complete bogus but I'll take anything right now to stop myself from going crazy for a couple of days.

Hmm... it's possible I guess... At least we won't have to wait too long to find out if it's true or not...

I'm almost grateful to the almost 100% likely troll. It splits up the going insane time into manageable bits.

I think fans will go more crazy when he goes into hermit like this off season and literally spam his Social Media if he makes one. I heard Yuzu even replied a month or two late to Kikuchi San's Line messages, so maybe Yuzu loves his hermit cave too much to make social media lol. He would do well surviving in the wild in my opinion lol

lol But if it's not a troll, we'll all be wondering who it was that spilled the secret lol

 

The thing is, usually Brian's show was preceded by a sort of Summer Camp and skating classes in Muskoka, and with Javi already in Muskoka, I wondered if maybe Brian will be there, already, too. In which case, it would be unlikely, as media day won't happen without Brian. But there is nothing to confirm there will be a Summer Camp or indeed anything in Muskoka until Saturday, so nothing to contradict this possibility.

Dear Diary,

 

Today is the 20th of August, the year 2018, also the 42nd day since our Do-S memeface overlord entered his cave in Toronto.

 

Due to the overflow of content earlier in the off-season, prisoners in captivity (aka fans) were getting used to more information, so the sudden silence from the batcave is decidedly hard to get used to. Really though, older ones should be used to this by now-they've been through what, 4-6 off-seasons of cricket chirps. But sadly, this off-season they're like newbies-moaning and begging for news all the time. And with the chorus of newbies, it seems everyone is slightly going nuts. Note, I really shouldn't say anything since I'm one of the older fans, but even my brain is slightly going anxious and cuckoo.

 

To be fair, the overlord hasn't gone completely silent (and it's not that unusual). There have been some cryptid sightings earlier on in the quiet days, and god bless little children, even photos where he was spotted smiling into a camera.But alas, after 2 weeks, everything's gone blank. Currently some of us residents in captivity have started more fruitful discussions, like social media presence and hypothesis of his fan count should the overlord decide to get instagram/twitter/facebook etc. But no, those are just tiny, unappetizing junk-food level morsels to chew on before we get the real feast.  But that feast is taking some time- all the while we need to endure thirst while the followers of other overlords (aka skaters) get to celebrate on new program reveals, normal instagram photos, new haircuts. Envious, who us? Of course not, we're used to feeling a smidgen of envy while we survive on old videos and memories (like cacti in the desert living off of stored water resources). Especially since we all agree that for the sake of his privacy, it's best that our overlord remain off of social media.

 

Desparate, who us? Naturally of course not. And scoff at those other fans, who like happy golden retreivers, jump joyfully at the sightings of haircuts. So easy to satisfy. We'll just content ourselves with 24H TV, even the pre-recorded stuff, while jabbing lazily into munchy snackfoods, clawing at walls, and reminding ourselves that there will be a sumptious feast at the end of this ordeal, because our overlord is a benevolent one in the end. Yes, we're definitely not nutty.

 

Signed,

I swear I'm actually a do-S,

Xen

Dated: year 6, 4 months and 19 days since captivity into the Hanyu solar system

 

 

 

 

 

Can you write this diary again next month if he announces nothing? lol. It's hilarious
