some HCs about the bois supporting their S/O when they’re having health problems? 💞
Neither Vladimir or Anatoly were really sick as kids. Vladimir was prone to colds when he was extremely young and Anatoly would occasionally catch something ever few years but in all they don’t have much experience in caretaking.
If it was a cold or flu Anatoly is your best bet to actually get yourself feeling better. He’d hang around and sit with you on the couch, supplying you with soup, crackers, and gatorade.
Vladimir is functionally useless except as a heater/pillow. He sends everyone else on supply runs while he stays in the house and keeps you wrapped in blankets or rubbing your back.
Sergei is basically a dad, even if you weren’t in a relationship with him he’s the one constantly checking in and actually knows some home remedies.
Piotr is worse than Vladimir. He was always sick as a kid and unless it’s his little sister he just, clocks out. He’ll bring things over and sit across the room but that’s about all you get out of him.
If it’s something serious the Brothers are very similar in their reactions. First is to offer support, holding you close and assuring you it’s going to be alright before every resource at their disposal to get you feeling your best.
Any of the boys would be right by your side for any doctor/hospital visit. Now- you get my OCs.
Roman is grade A care taking material. His sisters made sure he grew up learning about taking care of others and after his daughter was born he had a fair amount of practice between the flur, colds, and stomach bugs.
He’ll stay by your side, wet compress for your fever and a three times too large sweatshirt so you can at least move around some instead of being forced under four blankets.
Vitali is out of depth with taking care of anyone else but he’s prepared to try and he’ll do his best to keep a smile on your face through whatever it is that is making you feel down.

“Is there a reason my bathtub is filled with a full gallon of blood and glitter?” “Okay. I have a really good reason for the blood but I have no idea where the glitter came from” w/ Vladimir
You dealt with a lot. Well really Vladimir did too. Like when he came through the door, scowl melting away as soon as he caught the scent of fresh baked cookies.
“Hey comrade.” You were perched on a bar stool, cookie in your mouth and eyes alight. Before he could properly wrap you in a tight, but usually brief, hug you placed a hand on his chest. “Nah-ah, you are covered in grease, cookies and cuddling later.”
It didn’t deter him from stealing a kiss and, once he was headed down the hall to the bathroom you noticed, the last half of your cookie. “Vladimir!” Laughter greeted your outrage and you settled back to plot your revenge.
Far quicker than you expected Vladimir was back, eyes wide and steps quick. “Uhm, котелок, why is the the tub filled with blood and glitter?”
“Oh! Oh! I forgot about that. So I have a really good reason for the blood but I have no idea where the glitter came from.”“Would you like to e- nevermind. I do not want to know- I’m going to shower at Tolik’s and be back.” A kiss to your forehead and then he was out the door, leaving you to figure out just how the glitter got into the bath.
you know that iconic post about "daddy pass the salt" *boyfriend passes the salt* which guy do you think that would that happen to?
Vladimir. Vladimir all the way. It’d be the first or second time of him meeting your family and you wouldn’t even think it before asking because really why would you expect Vladimir to answer to that here? So when Vladimir and your father both reached for the salt the table froze, you went red in the face and Vladimir looked like he’d been shot, color draining from his face when your dad glared at him like he was considering how much jail time would be worth strangling the blond.
headcanons for what kink of wedding the ranskahov bros want? would it have russian traditions? maybe they wouldn't want a wedding at all? what if it's a poly relationship?
Vladimir and Anatoly both would prefer small weddings, something with a few people. Vladimir would definitely partake in the tradition of seeing how long he and his new partner can hold a kiss- everyone else counts and if it’s not long enough then they have to do it again- it’s to ‘improve the taste of the wine’ He would prefer an indoor wedding, not necessarily in a church but somewhere nice and with older architecture. Honeymoon to France, Spain, and ItalyAnatoly would prefer an outdoor wedding in a courtyard, most likely would forgo a tux. The wedding would be more for his s/o’s benefit than his own. Would get matching tattoos with his S/O as well as rings. Would adhere to the bread and salt tradition, takes a honeymoon to Moscow for a short period of time.
Poly! wedding would be extremely quiet, the proposal would take place when you were all lying in bed, head on Vladimir’s chest while Anatoly traced pattern over their s/o’s back before they caught each other’s eyes and nod yes, now’s the time to ask. The rings would be simple bands, Vlad and Toly would wear them on chains around the necks. They would take their s/o anywhere they wanted to go but could leave the city for more than a week.
