( okay, well, consider this: he hates being perceived for what he is and not what he tries very hard to appear to be, so stop it. )
You don't need to see him, so why would I allow it? ( he shrugs, then, leaning on his elbow and glancing off towards the sky. ) It'd be troublesome if our little skybound friend thought he has anyone he could possibly turn to down on earth.
( um... no? he's supposed to feel alone and like the casino is the only place he has, ok. also he's supposed to be terrified of fyodor and of failing him so don't be going up there acting all friendly!!!!!!!!!!! )
[ after stopping him dramatically with his palm, he quickly stands up, walking to his side. then, he gets down on one knee, taking a little box from his pocket, reaching a hands toward him. ]

he opens the little box, which indeed has the diamond-incrusted mouse and cat ring inside, in case fyodor thought he could escape it. his face determined and flushed, his heart racing a thousand miles an hour. carefully, he holds onto the offered hand, delicately resting his palm underneath. ]
Fedya, I think you know this is more than a prize for a game for me. I wanted to do this since the first moment I laid eyes on you. You're my salvation and my prison, and I wouldn't have it any other way— you drive me mad with feelings, which is why I must kill you, and yet I'm doing the opposite right now because you make me much happier alive. You are my best friend, and if I'm yours . . . Would you marry me?
of course, the ring is just as ugly as it was on the picture. in the other hand, it's also strangely endearing — fyodor finds himself not minding it as much, and certainly not as much as he would mind wearing that fuckass clown one... but regardless. nikolai's heart thrums against his ribcage, pulse so rabbit-quick fyodor can feel it through his hand; he's clearly nervous, flushed and all excited, and it's a bit difficult to focus, with how cute he looks.
he takes this so seriously... if fyodor had a heart, he'd certainly feel bad about deciding to do this on a simple whim. )
I always thought there should be a healthy dose of murderous intent in every marriage, really. ( that's all he has to say about this. being nikolai's prison — that's all he cares about, in the end. ) Of course, Kolya. Let's be together forever.
( so like, however long it takes either of them to die. )
ugh he's so happy!!!! he was half convinced fyodor would say no, because it sounds like something he would do, but when he agrees he can't help but chuckle, nervous and excited, taking his hand to put the ugly ass ring on his finger. ]
Ta-dah!! As I thought, it fits you perfectly!
[ he stands up, tugging him along by the arm before he can protest, twirling him then dipping him!!! if you thought he was annoying before you have seen Nothing yet. ]
Shall we steal a white car and ride into the sunset together now?
( the ring does fit his brittle, skeletal finger — perfectly, in fact, which makes him wonder whether gogol had checked for his actual size before —
the answer is probably yes. but, anyway. )
Ah — ( in a moment, he's sweeped up and dipped in a dramatic show of affection. if the people around are staring at them now, they're very much validated in it — but fyodor doesn't seem to mind, fixing the hat atop his head (which had begun to slide off) and humming. )

It's the only wedding gift I'll accept.

I want an actual carriage, Kolya. Horses and all.
no subject
Then, we should go find one!
[ since fyodor leaves him no choice, he's going to actually sweep him off his feet and bridal carry him in his arms. ]
It shouldn't be too hard, and in the meantime, I'll carry you just like this!
[ ready to parade him around the city. ]

I see. Kolya's my noble steed, for the time being. ( nods. ) Don't rock me too much, though. I might get queasy.
( he's sickly and weak :( )
