[ask18thcenturyrussia]

Vanya do you ever spend evenings together with Francis and Gilbert ? If yes what do you do ?

"Most usually, we have dinner..."

"...watch some ballet, which Gilbert really dislikes doing..."

"... and in the end, when everyone is worn out, we sleep peacefully."

One big reason I love Ivan Braginsky is how there’s just something wrong with him. But it’s not just a simple wrongness, you know, like… he’s someone who’s gone past that line nobody has even gone through, a point no one is supposed to reach — and has emerged from the other side something else, because there’s simply no turning back after that line is breached. He’s reached the deepest part of the abyss and something in his head just broke-broke. Shattered; he’s not even truly edgy, not even depressed in the strictest sense, now he is just simply mad… to quote one of my favorite manga, he has ‘transcended humanity and rose to the demonic’, ‘demonic’ here being something ‘other’ than what humans are supposed to be.

No other reason than my being interested in these types in fiction: when someone has gone past this limit that marks their humanity, what would they be like? That he is a nation (which he probably perceives as some kind of a demon, but that’s another hc) is why I think the whole thing will be even more interesting. How does he see himself and how does he see others like him, and what about others who are different? After all, nothing he values more than simple humanity and being simply human, and how it actually breaks him that he’s no longer than, if he’s ever BEEN that, if he’s still able to perceive it as that (also another hc).

he then went on a 10 minute tangent about something completely and absolutely unrelated. ivan may or may not have hung on to every word...

#doesnt matter what hes doing #alfred will find a way to yell during it #cue them on a coffee date and ivan trying to pretend he doesnt know alfred half the time #even though the idiots are literally at the same table #ivan fireman carries alfred out of the world conferences when he gets too rowdy i bet #hetalia #art #aph russia #aph america #hws america #hws russia #alfred f jones #ivan braginsky #ivan braginski #aph rusame #hws rusame #mod eagle

Ivan: I hate it when all the shows Alfred and I watch together go on hiatus. There's nothing for us to do.

Emil: You could talk to each other.

Alfred: Absolutely not! That's what bath time is for.

Russia: good morning, snowflake*kisses Matthews hair*

America: LMAO he's calling you SNOWFLAKE. like a fucking boomer.

Russia @ America: Yes :) Do you have a problem with that?

Canada: *takes Russia’s hand in his to lead him outside* Don’t worry about him, sunflower. He’s just jealous. ^-^

America: LMAOOO AS IF YOU LOSERS

*door falls shut*

America: *ugly crying* he calls him his snowflake 😭😭

Aph Russia Hcs

This man is nothing short of unhinged. He's got so much unresolved trauma and PTSD that he just does not know what to do with (and that no one around him seems to take seriously because "All nations have trauma, dipshit, don't be a pussy, jfc", so he just refuses to get any help for it bc he thinks he's SUPPOSED to be this way, someone help him.)

Contrary to what Himaruya tried to write, I like to think that Russia is hyperaware of the fact that his violent tendencies are immoral, he just does not care. It's been drilled into him from a young age that he needs to use violence, manipulation, fear, etc., to get the things he wants. He's aware they're bad, but he simply considers them necessary acts of evil in order to bring about what he thinks is within everyone's best interests. He's got a very clear idea of what's wrong and what's right, it's just extremely easy for him to justify why something is right when HE does it. If someone were to do something that he's also done, but thinks is wrong, he will condemn them for it.

Basically, he's a massive hypocrite.

This, however, sets him apart from a lot of other nations - not the hypocrisy, most nations are pretty hypocritic at one point or another, that's just par for the course. The fact that he's just. So openly antagonizing makes him super interesting to me. Most nations are really sneaky with their awfulness, but Russia's as subtle about his intentions as a brick to the back of the head. He doesn't care anymore. He's too old, tired, and sad to really give a shit about his reputation being tarnished. Not only that, but he already knows that most nations do not like him, so what even is the point in pretending anymore? He's not sly about it anymore. Part of me thinks he genuinely enjoys being a pain in the ass (this is kinda canon, as he does enjoy the sound of people arguing, and thinks world peace would be boring bc there would be no fighting.

For example, if we were to compare the guy to America, according to my hcs of course, we'd see some key differences. America is a lot like Russia in a lot of ways, he thinks the bad things he does or says are justified if he does them, and he always has a reason for why he did/said something prepared, but it's suddenly bad if someone else does/says them. He's ambitious and a little cowardly and pretty entitled, but most of his awful intentions are hidden beneath this "good boy", "American Dream", "I'm the Hero!" nonsense. He's a fantastic liar, cheat, swindler, etc., and he uses that to his advantage. Typically the guy will have an ulterior motive for everything he does. When he was younger, he did do things out of the goodness of his heart, but life as a nation, and especially as a world power has jaded him, even though he's not been around for long. As such, he treats most of his interactions with other countries as a business exchange instead of real human interactions. He tries to slip something that would benefit him into every move he makes, but he's always quiet about it, has every exit and escape marked, and will lie, lie, lie about it if he's caught.

Russia will do exactly none of these things. America is about harsh negotiation, Russia is about ultimatums. "Do this. Or don't. I don't care. I will get what I want either way,"

#Basically Russia's a bad person #but that's why I like his character so much #I've said I hate russia in the past #but a better way to explain it is: I hate russia as a person but adore him as a character #we don't get a lot of genuinely terrible people in this series #powers you'd expect to be portrayed as awful typically are not #England spain and france are all portrayed in a pretty positive light (save for some early series weirdness for France and Spain) #But Himaruya really cranked it up to 11 with Russia and for WHAT? #Like why's Russia portrayed as a dick but America's just this. Guy? #Like don't get me wrong #I could make a long-ass post about America on his own #America's a prick in canon to a degree #But not to the same degree #I want villains himaruya! #I want characters who aren't good people! #hetalia #aph russia #hws russia #hws russia headcanons #hetalia headcanons #aph america

Your art is so awesome, I really like the prize fighter Alfred one you did😍 If your still doing requests please draw russia?

thank you very much, anon :)

sorry it’s just a sketch for now but in the meantime here you go—hope i did him justice!

-

bonus drabble below (because i couldn’t help myself):

“and now, ladies and gentlemen, it’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. entering the ring is our challenger—the red peril, the russian menace, the one and only—ivan ‘the gentle giant’ braginsky!”

a hush falls over the spectators as ivan steps into the octagon, all six feet five inches and two hundred forty pounds of sheer muscle. he pauses momentarily, takes in the grandstand, the blinding lights, the twenty-pound cameras.

then a thin-lipped smile crawls across his face, cold and calculated. he jerks his thumb over his scarred neck, the message clear:

no mercy.

(not a warning—a promise.)

and the crowd goes wild, baying for blood.

#hetalia #aph #hws #aph russia #hws russia #ivan braginsky #axis powers hetalia #my art #anon reply #i legit haven’t drawn him since like 2015 so i’m very rusty #i think he’d be pretty soft spoken outside of the ring #but once that bell rings all bets are off #so the ‘gentle’ part of his moniker is very tongue in cheek #also unlike al i don’t think ivan really loves the sport #he respects it and he’s one of the best but at the end of the day he just doesn’t have the same passion for it #his dream was actually to go into academia but then shtf and he had to take up underground boxing instead #apologies if i butchered the russian!

Guys help Russia and Japan are growing on me as a duo. But like, not as a ship, not even in friendship, they barely tolerate eachother. They just... go together??? If that makes sense?? Idk. Reluctant acquaintances maybe??? Family members that don't interact that much but are at the same birthday party so I guess they'll chit chat???

#hetalia #hws #hws russia #aph russia #hws japan #aph japan #ivan brangiski #honda kiku #kiku honda #im still stuck up on the fact that i think they'd be excellent partners in crime #i feel like they know things about eachother no one else does and they KNOW that #they are on the same wavelength but on opposite sides #are they character foils??? #maybe idk thats the best explination i got

[fireandspiceland]

Idgaf ab what canon says, about what father Hima says, about what anyone says. Russia is a shortie, America and Canada tower over him. He wears wedged boots to seem taller. It's true, I saw. Russia is exactly that, a shawty

I have to disagree on that one I like my Russia tall and able to break me in half if he wants to. But it’s a valid headcanon and even if I don’t think he’s short per se the idea of canada and america being taller than him is admittedly something I like 👀

#riva.ask #hetalia #aph russia #I just realised that the only fic I know where canada and america are taller than Ivan is that one where Ivan is kidnapped by Alfred #I don’t remember the title rn it’s really heavy but absolutely amazing #but in Most fics where heights aren’t mentioned I just assume they’re all about the same #somewhere between 1.90-2m #Tall and Gorgeous

[astrophilic-soul]

I kinda can't get how can you support Palestine and simp for aph Russia simultaneously without icks.

Anon you know that you can block tags/people right?

But at the same time, why do you think that supporting Palestine is conditional?? It is a genocide and I very much try to support Palestinians as much as I can. If you think that because I like an anime that I would support the oppression and the genocide of people- I don’t know what to tell you!?!

#i fr try to ignore hate asks but if you’re trying to use an irl genocide for fucking talk points?? you’re being disgusting #not hetalia
