--Fyodor dating headcanons--
1. General + fluff
— I think we all know he's not the most romantic/affectionate lover (though he's so attractive, in your eyes, he's a gentleman).
— Even after you start dating him, Fyodor will still be (cold?) formal to you. He somehow still manages to show his affection towards you in this manner.
— He's softer around you than he is around anybody.
— He prefers giving you attention when you're alone rather than in public.
— He's a bit obsessed with you. Fyodor is so used to getting what he wants, so he has slight yandere tendencies.
— To him, his lover is most precious.
— He lets you wear his ushanka (his hat) and his coat, and he secretly thinks you look adorable dressed like him. He'd never outright admit it, of course.
— Fyodor probably will not make the first move. By that I mean he won’t kiss you unless you kiss him, but that only applies before your first kiss. He does see you staring though.
— He sometimes teases you and acts mean on purpose just to get a reaction out of you. Fyodor thinks you look so cute when you're mad at him and hug a pillow instead of hugging him, but he can't stand being ignored. He'll apologize soon.
— He's extremely observant. He is always able to read you like an open book.
— And don't think he doesn't notice anything you do. Whether it's a small act of affection like brushing your knuckles against his 'by accident', smiling more or less than usual or fidgeting, he notices all of it. Not in a creepy way though.
— Speaking of, he loves small acts of affection. He's almost always holding your hand, he gives you small kisses, and he strokes your hair sometimes.

Holding your hand;
— Gosh, he's almost always holding your hand. He especially loves when you intertwine your fingers. He isn't big on physical touch, so this is a great way for him to feel closer to you.
— Sometimes, if he doesn't feel like it, he won't let go of your hand as it is 'such a bother'. Even after your hands become sweaty, you'll have to beg him to let go. Because he won't. (not willingly)
— Fyodor doesn't do a lot of pinky holding. He wants to feel your palms against his. Plus, his hands are always cold because of his anemia, and holding hands properly is the best way to keep him warm (outside of cuddle sessions).
- - - ♡ - - -
Kisses;
— He adores soft kisses. He's also not much of a lip kisser. His favorite places to kiss you are your cheek and forehead (and your hand, on rare occasions).
— He sometimes has bursts of affection, mostly after a long day at work, but they are very small and they don't last very long. It'd hurt his ego if he showed his desperation for your love.
— These small bursts of affection are the moments he gives you kiss attacks.
— Passionate kisses only happen during makeout sessions, which, of course, happen later in the relationship. I'd say it's worth the wait, given that he's an incredibly good kisser and his passionate kisses are so passionate. (obv they are im so stupid.)
— Don't expect him to kiss you first though. Fyodor rarely ever makes the first move.
— But he does notice you staring at his lips, expecting him to kiss you.
— He has a habbit of biting his nails, so it's difficult not to stare.
— And his lips are extremely soft. And warm. Any wait you have to go through, it's worth it.
- - - ♡ - - -
Playing with your hair;
— If you have long hair, he absolutely loves it. It's classic of him to prefer long hair, don't you think?
— If you have short hair, that's fine too. Your hair length does not determine how much he loves you by any means. He just thinks your hair is such a delicate thing about you.
— If you have long hair though, you can expect him to stare. A lot.
— Fyodor loves seeing you with your hair untied, or seeing the different hairstyles you try, even if you just put your hair up lazily, he thinks any hairstyle looks good on you.
— He's not always touching your hair, but it makes him happy when you let him brush it, play with it, or try new hairstyles on you.
— He'll only brush your hair after a shower or if you ask him to, play with it when he feels like it, braid it when he thinks it'll get tangled. He doesn't play with your hair 24/7, as I said, but he's always more than happy to if you ask him.

Sitting/laying your head on his lap and vice versa;
— Fyodor doesn't mind if you sit on his lap or lay your head on his thigh while he works. In fact, he actually likes it.
— He'd be a little surprised as he's very touch starved and he'll find it difficult to relax, but he will for your comfort.
— These are the moments he'll run his fingers through your hair and pat your head gently (and awkwardly). But you love the feeling of his hands, there's no way you could ever complain.
— Fyodor will also brush your hair out of your face and maybe kiss your hand, but after you fall asleep.
— He never gets enough rest, which is why you'll just go to sleep on his lap most of the time. But you still get chances to sleep with him.
— He'll let you sleep peacefully if it's a short afternoon nap, but at night he'll snuggle with you after he finishes his work.
— He's too cocky to lay his head on your lap. Again, it'd hurt his ego. So you'd have to ask him to do that.
— Making him sit on your lap is out of the question.
— If you manage to get him to lay his head on your thigh and you want him to do it again sometime, you need to stroke his hair and maybe bend down to give him a kiss.
— Oh God he's definitely doing this again.
— He doesn't like being put in 'vulnerable' positions, but he can't help it when your fingers massage that one spot on his head.
— After the first time he falls asleep on your lap, he won't even bother asking. He'll just sit you down somewhere and tell you he's sleepy, and then wait to be taken care of.
— Of course, this is the kind of thing Fyodor would only do in private, and he'd appreciate it if you didn't try to do this in front of anyone either.
- - - ♡ - - -
Spending time together;
— Fyodor's quite introverted, so he'd prefer an introverted s/o. Even if you're not introverted, as long as you're not loud, he's fine with it.
— The reason I'm mentioning this is because he wants the two of you to be able to enjoy each other's company in silence sometimes.
— He can play his cello for you while you work on something, he can play with your hair while you read a book, or you could cuddle and take a nap.
— Fyodor doesn't always feel the need to hold a conversation to enjoy your presence. He knows you're next to him, and that's enough for him.

2. Comfort
— Let's be honest now... He sucks at comforting people. (how am i going to write this..)
— He's never dealt with anyone crying before, let alone a person he cares about.
— The difference between a crying person and a crying person he cares about is that he's scared of hurting the feelings of the person he cares about. (makes sense? no.)
— Fyodor won't struggle to comfort you as long as you're not crying. He'll buy you food if you want, he'll play chess/card games with you, he'll play his cello for you, he'll give you his hat... He will just do this best to cheer you up.
— But he's aware that if you start crying, cheering you up is not the right solution. He's going to try to hold you and let you cry in his arms.
— He won't talk much. He really wouldn't know what to say in situations like these.
— There's a chance he'll complain about you getting his clothes wet...? I'm so sorry but it sounds like something he'd do. Not always though.
— He cares about you, but he doesn't feel the need to remind you, as it'd make him feel awkward and he knows you're aware of that already.
— Fyodor is still going to hold you for as long as you need.
— He'll ask you what the matter is, and he'll be fine with it if you don't want to answer. He'll probably make you a drink or try to cheer you up once you've stopped crying.
— He'll hold you some more if needed.
— If you do decide to tell him what's bothering you, he might think it's not worth crying over. Depends if it's an insecurity or someone's death.
— If it is an insecurity Fyodor will give you some praise and compliments, but again, 'it's a pathetic reason to cry'.
— He's not good at giving advice if that's what you need.
— But he'll listen and hold you, even if he doesn't openly admit he cares for you as much as he really does.
