Violeta Sierova / Ivan Khobta - 🇺🇦 - Euros 23 Pairs SP
Program: Vesna - Vopli Vidopliassova
WOW wow WOW this program made me so emotional. It may have not been perfect, but for such a young team, training and learning in such turbulent and horrific times… and to perform such a beautiful and so wonderfully Ukrainian program? They should be so proud of themselves for delivering not only a stellar performance with very fun folk choreography, but nailing some pretty great elements. (Their Rev Lift was definitely a stand out 🤩) I’m so proud of them, 🥹😭🥺

Fully finished 15 Nikolai AU Character sheet + Headcannons!!!
Nikolai is a Piano player and I will not accept him playing any other instrument other than that. His cannon design even looks like a Piano how much more piano-y can a character get?? He is those self-taught pianist. The type that only knows chords and those weird numbered sheets music you get in those church songs lol (Fyodor taught him to read sheet music later on ;3)
Also pianist of 10 years writing over here, The tenor clef page is based on personal experiences.
It took me so long to figure out his sexuality, It was between Gay, Pan, Achillean but I settled with Omnisexual
“Omnisexual refers to someone who is romantically, emotionally, or sexually attracted to persons of all genders and orientations”Basically, All is good. But of course he does have some (a lot) of Internalised Homophobia and Religious Trauma (Haven’t fully figured it out yet in my head but I’m working on it)
Figure skating ehhhhhhh (for personal reasons) Realistically it is near impossible to do a Hydroblade self taught and pretty much figure skating isn’t a hobby that you can just buy a pair of skates (1000usd per pair) (he stole those with his ability ofc) but you can’t just teach yourself through YouTube videos (based on…. Experience….) (you Will Hurt yourself) but I meannnn He has an magical portal opening ability, he got plot armour. (And I like figure skating)
Random Trivia
Cavetown coded, Star coded, Neurodivergent, Enfp, likes cardistry (like magicians you get it), has the biggest crush on Fyodor (if it wasn’t obviously enough lol), likes Pigeons (yk street rats) (I love pigeons, they deserve more love), (Personally I think cannon adult Nikolai is more white Dove coded tho), Loves theatre and the stage (based on irl Mykola), Irl Mykola was queer, Loves Tchaikovsky (me too) (Tchaikovsky was also queer btw (he was very gay)), likes Mykola Lysenko (carol of the bells original composer) (ayy father of Ukrainian classical music and him share the same name!!) (I love researching about Ukrainian culture while making this)(Ukraine is so beautiful, I wish we could’ve had the chance to visit it in its beautiful light and glory before yk…) (Making this was very emotional) (Don’t forget to support Support Ukraine guys) 🌻🇺🇦🫶
Btw here are some songs that I listened to while drawing him!!!
(Definitely listens to Tchaikovsky’s 1812 overture to fw Fyodor lol)
(Btw go watch my 15 Fyolai Astronomy mini Animatic on my page)
(This is Home will always have a special place in my heart)

Figure skater I would associate with Kris from Joker Out (cuz why not)
Roman Sadovsky
Think with me: they are both half Slavic (Kris is half Slovenian, edit: Roman was born in canada and I'm pretty sure at least one of his parents is Ukrainian, now I don't remember if the other one was also Ukrainian or Russian or Canadian), both blue eyes, both blonde *gunshots heard in the distance*, tall as fuck, beautiful lines, play an instrument (Kris plays the guitar, Roman plays the drums), and they connect very well with music. They are also very chaotic. Kris can and will insult your family by accident and Roman....well... he's a man in figure skating, all of them are chaotic. They have no consistence whatsoever, which makes the men's competitions more fun because anything goes.
EDIT: OMG, I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT TO MENTION ROMAN CAN ALSO BE AS AWKWARD AS KRIS:
And we love to see it ✊🏽

Every day I’m thankful my mums side of the family is Italian. Cause I grew up with Football and Formula 1, as well as figure skating (which I competed in for 13+ years, until I quit in 2019).
Like having a Ukrainian family on my dad’s side is interesting and all, but there’s something about having an Italian family that just makes it even more fun.
And my Nonno encouraged me to get into racing; so I get to start Karting at the end of April for a club about 48mins away from me. 🙏😁
Little; get to know my family post for people.

The RD scoring made me so angry that watching the women's free felt like a chore. Like, in what world do C/B beat the Italians and the Canadanes technically??? She doesn't get into the ice, like, at all, she's basically drifting. I felt the same as you about G/F, this is the first performance of their RD that I've enjoyed and watching their feet was one of the highlights of the event for me. However, the Canadanes delivered the better overall package (although his free leg is admittedly weak). C/B were so painfully boring to me that the only reason I'd have them in 3rd here (with the above 2 teams being 1st and 2nd) is that the other teams were worse. And I'm sorry, but as much as I like Lilah and Lewis as people and find them entertaining, they have no business being in this conversation and the only thing their overscoring can achieve is put people off. P2 are unwatchable to me, G/Pa were good but his costume and her hair issues were distracting, the poor girl spent half the program brushing her hair away from her eyes. They can deliver wonders with the right coaching team, which is why I'm extremely meh about them this year. The Lithuanians were the best I've seen them do the RD so far, given that the theme doesn't suit their natural movement style. C/P were good, this was kind of a median performance for them from what we've seen this year but there's less of a gap between them and G/Pa than what was scored. I can't with any of the French teams, with L/B her back is so inflexible that they'll be really limited in what they can do elements-wise and their packaging is very Euro-retro. I don't find the Finns too offensive but she just looks so fragile to me, I can't focus on anything else. Taschlers were on fire. Of the rest, I enjoyed the Ukrainians' progress a lot. Do NOT get me started on KanaDai and their scores/calls, though... I need them and Marina to go tf away already, that was hideous. And omg that poor Svinin Zhuk team, the sheer cringe...
Italians won in BV over C/B, Canadanes got slightly less because C/B got level 4 for the midline. But I have to say, while I think the Italians and Canadanes are the two best teams in terms of edge quality and their basic skating skills and I'm for sure not a technical specialist, I did think C/B were strong in the RD and tbh the current rules for levels are so contrite that who even knows at this point. I do not agree that she doesn't get into the ice, she's not the strongest but I think she improved a lot as well (Igor legit did nothing with her).
I 100% agree that G/F had such good footwork today, like again I'm not a techincal specialist but watching it live even before the levels came up I knew it was superb, but I also agree that Canadanes win overall, Nikolaj's free leg is the thing that always bothers me but it also improved a lot this season so kudos to him. I really think that Canadanes deserved at least 3rd.
F/G are for sure the weakest of the top 5 (though today not sure I would even have G/P above them in the RD) but people will hate them no matter what. Once people decided they figured out Lilah's family tree they also decided to hate her in one of teh ugliest ways I've seen in the fs fandon and god knows I've seen a lot of shit in my days. Their overscoring is annoying but again, it's not as bad as people make it be.
G/P were borderline unwatchable to me as well, but as I said I'm very biased because of my strong dislike of their RD since the second I saw it, in a see of bad fake latin programs they somehow managed to have the worse, and we fucking have wicked games latin and Adele latin this season so it says a lot.
Green/Parsons as you said were distracting, his costume is fine to me, her hair not so much, I like the improved speed but they are very sloppy in their footwork and keep losing levels. As @saucylittlesmile said, CPom with 5th highest BV but 10th overall is super frustrating but that's why I believe that if they can get better speed and keep the levels they will make a push. I still think the best outing of the RD for CPom was 4CC, I also hope they can attack the FD because I need them over 112 and over 114, like get a SB/PB.
French as I said suffer from bad packaging this season and Gui's choreography and vision for them. They were edgy and fun last season, this season they are barely noticeable.
FINs are also a bias point for me, between her being so fragile looking, them hopping their twizzles and not getting dinged for it, and her wide open mouth that is somehow considered interpretation, I just can't with their scores, they are a 72 team, not a 76-79 team.
R/A I love, strong outing for them and they are even stronger in the FD id they can skate it calean (which means not falls, not twizzles fuck ups, no choreo lift fuck up like it happened 2-3 times already).
Taschlers were great fun and they have power and speed for days, but they too suffer from sloppy footwork - to be 9th with a pattern level 1 bothers me.
Ukranians are really developing nicely, it was smart to switch the Conga they used at the end of the RD to Hip Hip Chin Chin, it works way better.
Also liked the Estonian, I bow down to Solene for competing and looking better than a lot of teams who didn't almost die at the start of the season.
And I have a soft spot for the Australians, they fucked the twizzles here but I think they have a lot of potential tbh.
Legit don't even know who are the Svinin/Zhuk team but it's ironic how Stepanova/Bukin dumped them this week for Zhuin's politicking (though I'm legit shocked they are thinking about returning given the ban and the fact Stepanova just has a secret baby)

🌦 « andrew garfield. cis man. he/him. thirty-nine. » was that MYKOLA “NIK" SOKOLOV walking through the doors of amorelux ? i heard they just moved in to apartment 1403 from LONDON, ENGLAND and work as an airline pilot. they seem erudite & affable but don’t get on their bad side ! they can be forthright & testy which makes sense since they’re an AQUARIOUS. you know they’re home when you see a flash of tired eyes hidden behind thick frames, the reflection of streetlights on the pavement after it rains, the frayed spines of paperback books, & disheveled hair after running your hands through it one too many times. ↷. @amoreluxintro
BASIC STATS
NAME: mykola dmitrievich sokolov ♡ BIRTHPLACE: kharkiv, ukraine ♡ NICKNAMES: nik & accepts nicky depending on the person ♡ SEXUAL ORIENTATION: bisexual/biromantic ♡ OCCUPATION: airplane pilot for alaska airlines ♡ BIRTHDAY: february 16th ♡ NATIONALITY: ukrainian ♡ EYE COLOR: dark brown ♡ HAIR COLOR: light brown ♡ HEIGHT: 5"10’ ♡ SPOKEN LANGUAGES: english ( fluent ), ukrainian ( fluent ), russian ( fluent ), & spanish ( conversational )
BIOGRAPHY
okie dokie so nik was born and raised in kharkiv, ukraine to an average middle class family where he lived for the first eight years of his life ,, his dad was an aviation pilot for the ukraine international airlines while his mom is an ex-olympic figure skater who ended up getting disgraced by purposely injuring her competitor ( was tonya harding his mom ?? who knows but she didn’t get any movies made about her ) so now she sells makeup and jewelry at a small boutique she started up
apologies to anyone having a conversation with nik bc his accent is thick and all over the place from influences. it’s still heavy ukrainian accent but also elements of the london accent once he moves, so his vowels are all over the place like it’s v much ukrainian but also v british lad and slang so it’s all v confusing
his mom victoriya is kind of a shitty person ?? just to be blunt about it since on top of her injuring her competition, her redemption was stalled by finding out she was pregnant again with nik after his older sister and it only goes downhill from there. which .. kinda sucks bc nik’s dad dmitri is a true gem who loved his kids and his wife to the moon and back and just wanted the best life possible for them but it was around the time of her pregnancy with nik that her behavior went south
her attitude was sour majority of the time and never seemed to be pleased with whatever her husband did and the drinking began after nik was born since she liked to think he was the reason behind her figure skating career never taking off again and not her disgraced name ?? this behavior was a -10/10 and dmitri put up with it for eight years thinking that she would change but it never did and it was around nik’s 8th birthday that he announced the divorce, got custody of nik and his sister nina and moved the two of them to kingston, u.k just outside of london upon a job offer
it’s in his new environment that nik begins to thrive .. finds an intense love for literature and just reading in general ?? he’s a naturally bright boy and is excelling in his classes where he gets top marks and notes on his report cards saying how lovely n intelligent of a boy is ,, though he does have trouble with making friends which ))): some of his classmates are a bunch of twats and like to pick on nik since he’s the new kid and has a strong accent
but aside from that overall his childhood was chill and was known as the class clown who got along with everyone and generally just liked making people laugh ?? just a v happy go lucky lil boy that as he aged just looked like a typical lad and not the highly intelligent boy who had promise to attend oxford or cambridge or even any school he wanted to
it's when nik and his family moved to london that he actually started going by the nickname of nik just as an easier way of pronunciation english wise. with his dad and sister he goes by mykola, but he still goes by nik just bc he's gotten so used to it
but once nik eventually settled in and made some friends of his own, everything settled down and nik grew to enjoy his time in london. his more affable personality started to come through and would become known as one of the few class clowns in his grade who could hold a conversation with anyone
it’s around nik’s 13th birthday that his dad introduces him to a new lady in his life aka his new gf named isabella who has kind green eyes and a vibrant laugh that brought out her animated personality and nik automatically loved her. he could see how happy she made his dad and after years of watching his dad be treated badly by his mom nik was happy that he found someone who loved him and being around him
fast forward seven months and isabella moves into their home and nik finally feels like he has a family ?? and it’s inevitable that the two get married where nik is the best man and it’s with this new family structure of isabella and her daughter sofia that nik feels stable?? in a sense ?? uses this new found sense of stability to further challenge himself in his academics – finding a strong penchant for math and science and being insanely good at it.
while debating whether he wanted to go to university for something math related, it was hearing his dad speak about his most recent flight that nik came to the realization that he wanted to follow in his father's footsteps and become a pilot. from there on nik applies himself even more so in his studies with his sites set on purude university in america. to which he eventually gets accepted into and he attends
the years in school fly by for nik and he eventually graduates with his degree, gets his abundance of hours worth of supervised training completed within another two years and by age 25 he's flying high and slowly working his way up
nik bounces around america for a while, settling in city airport hubs of delta as he works his way up in rank and not settling down in a place for too long. eventually nik ends up in new york city with a base in jfk international airport where he starts to do longer more international flights and it's here in nyc that nik starts to settle down
some sad times are ahead for nik though, his family is extremely close and he talks to his father, isabella and nina all the time on the phone. nina moved out to brighton for an advertising job with her husband philip and they have a v beautiful baby girl named adelaide and i'm !! nik is in awe bc his niece is gorgeous and he adores kids jdfnsj so he visits them whenever he can and especially when she grows up since she's his goddaughter as well
nik and his family are the type who get together for family vacations each year still bc they genuinely all get along and love one another. death tw starts – it'ss during one of nik's long shifts where it’s proving to be a tough day when he's just finishing up one of his longer flights and he gets an international call from england saying that his sister and his brother in law were involved in were involved in a car accident and didn't make it – end of death tw
being her godfather nik is given full guardianship of his niece adelaide and she soon makes the move from england to new york city. it's a tough time for nik as he's thrown into a whirlwind of settling everything with paperwork, getting adelaide settled, and taking time off from work to acclimate to having to raise a teenager now. unfortunately the one long term and healthy relationship nik found himself in begins to suffer from the amount of stress and being pulled in multiple directions. nik and his boyfriend break up and seeing as nik didn’t plan to become a father, he decides now is the time to refocus and dedicate all of his time to raising adelaide
after some time adelaide decides she doesn't like the hectic ways of new york so nik begins to apply to other companies and once he's met with a generous salary and a flexible schedule for him to look after adelaide, he and his niece make the move to seattle and eventually settle into the amore lux apartments
nik truly does hope to one day settle down and taking on the responsibility of raising adelaide certainly made nik aware just how lonely he is lmao. he does have hope to have kids of his own potentially just from how family oriented he is. right now he's juggling work and learning how to raise a teenager while they're both dealing with grief and while it's a lot, he and adelaide see eye to eye
CONNECTION IDEAS
someone who checks in on adelaide when nik is off at work doing longer flights. he would say babysitter while adelaide would argue against it ( she's 16 thank you very much !! ) but he just likes to know that there's enough food in the apartment or if his niece has homework questions then someone is there
some hookups !! nik is painfully single and while still getting over his ex, he's still a man with needs so the door is open
anyone with a kid of their own who can offer nik some advice on How To Raise a Teenager When You Weren't Planning On Raising a Teenager
a wholesome date where nik and your muse went out for dinner but ultimately they realized they were better off as friends and they continue to be as such
an errand friend !! your muse and nik oftentimes like to run errands together just bc it's more fun and the company is nice as opposed to doing everything by yourself
maybe someone nik was having a casual friends with benefits situation with and since he's still finding his footing with relationships and moving on from his ex, your muse could've ended up liking nik more than nik understood. feelings could've been hurt and things are awkward now
friends please !! *black panther voice* someone give this man some friends !! he's lonely !!

Okay, wow. I was not expecting this when I logged on to twitter today. And I will admit I’m sad - felt a bit like a gut-punch. (and at a time when my personal life is going so well, too! - I never really had the energy to post about it recently, but long story short: I found a flat far away from my parents and I’ll be moving out and getting out of this whole toxic family situation in mid-august, so yeah... hyped for that.)
But anyway, this post isn’t about me: THANK YOU, YUZURU HANYU, for everything.
2-time Olympic champion, 2-time World champion, 4-time GPF champion, only Men’s skater to achieve a Career Super Slam, breaker of 19 World records, greatest figure skater of all time - what a legacy. And that’s without counting the many more he would have won without underscoring and corrupt judging.
There won’t be another Hanyu anytime soon. I’m so glad I got to see him live, got to watch him compete, got to watch him attempt a 4A right in front of me. My only regret is that I never got to throw a Pooh for him.
But also, this isn’t the end. He’ll still be skating, he’ll still be here, he’s still a professional skater - just not under the ISU’s corrupt system anymore. And honestly - that’s a win. At this point I think it’s not exaggerated to say that him retiring from competition is alike to someone getting out of an abusive relationship. And on that front, I’m so happy for him. I’m so happy he’ll get to skate on his own terms now, that he’ll get to do what he wants without constantly being punished for it, and I wish him all the best in whatever he plans to do now and whatever the future holds for him now.
And I also can’t wait to gleefully watch the ISU go bankrupt and fall apart as no one goes to any of their competitions anymore. (I mean, I’ll still tune in for my girl Rika and maybe some other women’s skaters, but for the men? lmao, nope.)
(Also, because this post is already too long and chaotic, let me take this moment to say if any of you make those “other skaters thanking Yuzu” compilations and you include the Russians, it’s on sight 🔪. I don’t care how much Pl*sh likes Yuzu or that he said a nice thing about him - he’s literally out there advocating *for* slaughtering Ukrainians. Can some of you look outside your FS bubble for ONE SECOND? Some of you really be like “I can excuse advocating for genocide and war, but I draw the line at being rude to Yuzuru Hanyu.”)

so italian and english I didn’t really have a say in it because of life/school you know, ASL/ISL I learned out of necessity, spanish/german/french=school, russian=my figure skating coach refused to use anything but russian with us dbsjsnsj, ukrainian=I have a ukrainian aunt (shoutout aunt Svetlana Я тебе люблю), my dad’s family is portuguese and my lifelong crush is Albanian so I’m doing it for them™️

My 110, Alexis, has arrived! I’ll take some good photos later. I’m happy with the doll herself, but the quality of the meet outfit leaves a lot to be desired- the bottoms of the shoes are uneven and there’s a rip on the back of the dress. Her hair is also dry and tangled at the bottom, so I’ll be trimming it.
On Discord we’ve built up extensive lore for Alexis (superpowers, extreme bite strength, communicative ability with cougars) and I’m tamping her mystical magical abilities down for her character. She’s a ten year old from Grande Prairie, Alberta. She’s Ukrainian-Canadian. She’s autistic. She plays hockey and figure skates occasionally. Her parents are divorced and her father lives far to the south in Calgary, where he works at the zoo. She wants to be a zookeeper when she grows up, because she loves big cats.
More to come! I’m super excited for her.
