Strokes Slash

It used to be Julian/Nikolai but no I don’t really have a main ship anymore.

Now I’m quite happy to see any of these lovely men shipped in any way with each other as they all just have such fantastic internal chemistry.

I will say though that I did formerly find Nick/Julian overplayed as it used to be at least in fanfiction what felt like a 10:1 ratio of Julian/Nick to any other pairing which quickly got annoying.

Whilst you proposed a quite interesting take on a rather standard concept and I welcome anyone else using them; I’m not going to utilize it for the blog.

I want to have this blog be easily navigated no matter the depth of knowledge you may or may not have and the pairing names don’t fit that philosophy as they’re so entrenched in knowledge that wouldn’t be considered “standard” that they could become quite taxing and confusing to deal with.  {Well barring the visual reference that is the Fab/Albert “FroBros” one.}

I am the first to admit that my current pairing system is quite dull.  However they’re to the point amidst the silliness of the rest of it and I feel as if that’s how they should stay.

Look at how quickly and violently Nikolai reacts to the sudden jumping of Fab.  He wishes to save Fab but events unfolded too quickly for him to save him.

Nikolai spent the next two hours sulking because he couldn’t save Fab .  No one noticed.  It’s Nikolai.

Julian went on to lecture the tackling fan.
