Julian finds it extremely difficult to mask his love for Nikolai

[strokesslash]

what is your main ship, if you have one?

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.

If it seems like Nikolai/Anyone is rather more common on here and that’s what led you to asking, that’s simply due to Nikolai being my favourite Stroke for nearly 12 years now.

the logical sequel to this post

hey ive got suggestions to call the pairings (n probably they've done this already). Nick/Nikolai - Nametwins. Fab/Albert - Fabert, FroBros. Fab/Nikolai - Bilingual Bros, Julian/Nikolai - Jukolai, The Senpais (cuz they're the eldest two), Nick/Fab - The Kouhais, Julian/Albert - Julibert, the Famous Duo idk

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.

I do appreciate your suggestions though and there is always room for improvement but perhaps not quite in this manner.

Albert is busily contemplating how to get Nick into his bedroom. Nick thought it was a foregone conclusion and is mildly curious as to why Albert refuses to be silly with him for the camera. The dude in the back doesn’t approve. However his glares hold no impact for Albert and Nick are busy.

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.

Fab meanwhile was mildly dazed but otherwise unharmed.

Those of you who don’t believe this picture exists; you’re new around here aren’t you?

What we’re seeing here is simply a common backstage ritual that these two have partaken of for many years. This is just the best and earliest of many photos of this ritual that Colin Lane has captured over time.

Albert spares no time in expressing his affections and is utterly unaffected by lady-shirts and grease. Craig however is mildly offended because dammit Albert he is trying to smoke and smoking time is not kissing time. Craig also knows that Albert is only kissing him because Albert is likely drunk and has mistaken him for Julian.
