Besides... [Yuuri's voice goes soft with contemplation.] It was sort of embarrassing at the time, but in a way, it's what got me here today. Even if I did keep skating as I was, how far would I have gone without Viktor and Yurio pushing me?
And I never would have tried to connect with you or anyone else like this either. [It's hard to admit, but Viktor had been right. He'd kept himself too far from everyone else, choosing to stay off to the sidelines alone rather than joining in and supporting each other in turn.]
