Ilya Fydorovich | Илья Фыдорович

Absolute girlfailure of an artist in love with Peter Stamatin and hoping his artistic spark comes back <3 (He's essentailly peters depressed little piece.)

He keeps drawing and painting Peter and hoping it’ll bring back his artistic spark, because hes terrified that if he doesn’t get it back Peter won’t want anything to do with him any more

Where Peter drinks, Ilya smokes, nicotine mostly, maybe a little bit of twyre occasionally, if Peter asks him to indulge

Ilya, I think, only properly exists in that strange stretch of time between Farkhad and the game. Once it becomes clear that his spark isnt coming back, and that Peter cares far more for his creations (and Andrey) than he ever will for Ilya, he throws himself from one of Peter's staircases to heaven, in a mimicry of the death of Farkhad. Because Peter clearly loved him more anyway.

I'm thinking perhaps Ilya is originally from the town. He left to go to art school, and follows the twins back home (he maybe decides to leave a little earlier than originally intended because he hears the twins are headed for Gorkhonshk). He's often barefoot, as he doesn't go out much, and never did. He worms his way into peters bed in the wake of Farhad, filling that empty void there.
Really, he should have known the relationship wouldnt fare well. And really, he should be happy! He’d never have survived the plague! This is a far nicer way to go. (And so soon to! Less than a week later the town is hell incarnate!) 

However if he were to have lived through to the plague he holes up in peters loft and joins Peter in drink. Starving himself half sick because he doesnt trust the food to not be infectious. He thinks it’ll get him the pest.
He hides away when the healers show up, and when Maria comes. The locked door halfway up the stairs to Peter's loft? Yeah, that's where he hides. Half alive and terrified to speak to anyone but the twins. None of the healers ever realize he's there, otherwise he'd be getting forced treatment, or fed.


There are many nights that he and Peter spend curled up in that bathtub…. inebriated, only half aware, shivering into each others arms. Anything Peter asks and Ilya does everything he can to provide it, to the point of self destruction. He wants to replace Farkhad so so bad and he never will, never successfully
Ilya has zero interest in Andrey. Thinks hes annoying, actually. and getting in the way of Peter’s masterpieces. He doesnt say anything, not to the twins, but when he has Peter alone, and drunk, he continuously tries to shepard him away from Andrey and his 'distracting behaviors'... never enough that Peter will remember when he's cognizant, but enough for Andrey to kill him if he knew.
He's not even Good At It
pathetic little man can’t even manipulate his boyfriend into leaving his codependent toxic loving/abusive twin relationship.

ilya fydorovich you are such a mess.
