HAPPY VALENTINES DAY. IMMA ACTUALLY RATE FYOLAI AGAIN! I feel my earlier rating lacked a lot of detail so imma redo and what better day the feb 14th!!

10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000/10

reasons I love them:

1: I feel they both bring out this full character we know and love at least for nikolai. for nikolai we saw his silliness, happiness, and sadness which is not a rare emotion for him to show. all bc of fyodor.

2: "only fyodor understands"  "fantastic... how fantastic you are"

3: they look good together

4: I adore the fanfics and fanart of the two. 

5: it's clear fyodor does not like Nikolai like that canon but the way the insane golden retire and the mysterious black cat dynmic work so well is amazing. like most charcters with that dynamic one tends to be annoyed but based on canon fyodor would tolerate him and ya know still keep him around. 

6:  besties!!!

(dawg I was drinking a soda and it tastes like coffee)

7: they both represent the things they hate or work to overcome. nikolai dont care about good and works to become less human and be free. fyodor is loyal to god so the fact fyodor still respects and acknowledges him is interesting.

8: no straight person holds his "friends" hand like that

look at his homo

reasons I dislike them:

1: nikolai is clearly fyodors pawn

2: they dont talk much as said by nikolai :(

3: ik there's like 2k fyolai fics BUT. I. WANT. MORE. 

4: im actually in love with this ship so I cant judge to much on how they wont work bc they are perfect in my head.

5: fyodor is so mischaracterized it drives me insane. hes a demon and a servant of a god who can kill anyone with a touch. he isn't some silly anemic power bottom Twink like jeez :( also for him being genderfuid. no issues with the HC at all but he wouldnt say "oh.. erm!! im feeling like a lady today please use she/her! :333" once again I actually understand where him being non binary or genderfluid comes from but he wouldnt display it ya know.. like that

6: one is 5'9 one is 6 ft under...

sexuality HC:

nikolai: non binary, pansexual he/they

fyodor: gay he/him
