Fyodor's Ability.

-by Nix

Crime and Punishment is treated throughout the events of BSD as a "enigmatic" ability, and for good reason.

The general base the fandom seems to have taken is that "Crime and Punishment" boils down to "Fyodor touches you, you die."

Which then again leads people to concentrate on that aspect of Fyodor's life as the reason he's so poorly cared for or in such frail relationships. While I definitely think Fyodor's ability is a big part of why he's physically avoided, his own management of his personality and character is a bigger issue he's in poor human relations.

So far, in my Psychological analysis for Fyodor I listed traits that were formed not because of his ability, but as a result of his own reaction to what his ability meant. Long story short Fyodor's ability is his entire life long monster-- of his own making.

There are arguments to be made that 'Crime and Punishment' is not faulty or impossible to deactivate like 'No longer Human'.

There are plenty of instances where there is no room for speculation on that aspect.

First let's establish one thing, Crime and Punishment is not limited or influenced by layers of clothing. It is NOT a 'skin-to-skin' type of ability and this is confirmed as a fact.

In the scene of Fyodor's arrest, one of the officers grabs his wrist, which ends up killing him.

The dead giveaway to clothing not restricting Crime and Punishment is that the officer in question wore thick tactical gloves, much like all the others.

(Tactical gloves are used for wrist/ hand protection while also allowing a large range of motion and not limiting dexterity when it comes to shooting)

With this in mind, I draw your attention to one of the 'plot hole scenes' that confirms 'Crime and Punishment' is a controlled ability that Fyodor can hold back.

Mori's stabbing.

In this particular scene, we see Fyodor stab Mori in a sure-fire but hidden way, by shoving his own body against the other's.

To the point where Fyodor's entire arm's length was pressed to Mori's chest/abdomen.

This was a controlled contact, as clothes don't stop Crime and Punishment, Fyodor must've. Concluding it isn't just permanently 'on' or 'active'.

The other option is that the ability itself alternates much like a signal, sometimes it's active, other times it isn't and alternates at random, instances which Fyodor takes advantage of, but there's nothing to back this up as of yet, it is only a theory.

The other plot hole I'd like to draw your attention to is Fyodor's lock-up. When we see him restrained, Either in the manga or anime, Fyodor wears either something similar to a straight-jacket or is simply bound by belts.

It would've been physically impossible for Fyodor to restrain himself in either of these two chairs. That is to say, someone must've touched him, and they must've stayed alive long enough to finish buckling up all the restraints.

The other possible theory is that Crime and Punishment resumes itself to Fyodor's hands/wrists. That again is nothing but a theory, but we've only ever seen the ability take effect through Fyo's hands.

Another thing to mention I found quite odd- all kills made by Fyodor using his ability are with his left hand only up until now.

While in Dead Apple- Crine and Punishment had a red glowing gem only on his right hand.

Maybe each hand does smth different? One is literally Crime the other is Punishment?

Idk

That's all for now this was a 8 am rant-

Extra Note:

In Dead Apple, when Fyodor monologues as to how his ability does not leave him in the fog, there's a very important thing I wish everyone to Note.

'Crime and Punishment' walks alongside Fyodor.

Fyodor is holding a skull specifically in his left hand (the aforementioned hand that he uses to kill people through his ability. Fyodor has only ever killed with 'Crime and Punishment' using his left hand)

'Crime and Punishment' holds an apple with it's right hand, with it's back to Fyodor, creating a mirror effect.

Fyodor's Ability perfectly mirroring him, alongside the fact it doesn't depart from him through the effects of the fog can mean one of two things:

1. Fyodor holds an ability with the word 'and' between two individual terms (Crime AND Punishment), something completely unique to him. No other known ability is composed of two separate terms connected together by "and". That could be potentially interpreted as one single ability that behaves in two separate halves.

For example, what if one hand is Crime? (Left, as represented by Fyodor multiple times)

And the other is Punishment ? (Right, represented in Dead Apple, where Crime and Punishment mirrors Fyodor, while the gem is exclusively on the right hand and both Fyodor and his ability share this dialogue:

Fyodor: I am Crime.

Crime and Punishment: I am Punishment.

Which leads me to point 2.

2. Fyodor is the completion to his own ability. Hypothetically, Crime and Punishment is exactly as stated above, only Punishment and the Crime is actually added on to complete it by the human possessing it, so that:

Humanity is really the Crime, and his ability? Only the Punishment. As stated in Dead Apple.

Idk it's fun to analyze ♡☆

Talia (singing, talking to Jason on her phone): Have you forgotten the lessons I taught you? He's still a threat until he's dead! Finish it.

Batman (connecting the dots): Are you the reason he does that?!

Talia: What are you talking about?

Ra's Al Ghul (smoking): Yes. I have a bunch of videos of them singing together.

Batman snatched the phone away making Talia angry and almost made Ra's attack, but Talia held up her hand to stop him.

Batman: Don't!

Jason (raising his sword for the kill but stopping himself): Oh shit, you're here too.

Talia: I enjoy musicals as well, what of it?

Batman: I knew it! WHY DO YOU ENCOURAGE HIM!

Ra's (in Arabic): La tasrakh ealayha! (Don't yell at her ass!)

Batman (speaking back in Arabic): Autlub minha 'an tatawaqaf ean altaathir ealaa abni! (Tell her to stop influencing my son!) Yeah I learned the language, jackass!

Ra's wanted badly stab the man, but walked off in a huff.

Talia: Don't blame me for him being a talented singer.

Talia held up her hand and walked off ending the conversation.

Batman (into the phone): Don't kill him!

Jason: But... I wanted to. I had a song for it and everything.

Batman (regrettably singing): What good would killing do? When mercy is a skill more of this world could learn to use. The blood we shed, it never dries. Is this what it means to be a warrior of the mind? I hated all of that, but I'm doing it for you, remember that!

Damian on the other hand clapped making his father more embarrassed.

Jason: The bastard sung to make me stop. Damn it, fine.

you and me we’re not the same

You were born of a sacrilegious union. Your green dragon mom never figured the knight she seduced while masquerading as a noblewoman was a silver dragon in disguise. You’d no idea either, born a human orphan. When your dragon blood awoke, so did the dangers which all your heritage entails.

My sibling: He's traumatizing everyone, He's made a list and he's checking it twice

insp. // it’s so fyodor coded i had to draw it

I needed to hear this, thank you

Listen guys, you don't need to look nice to go outside. Your health is more important than appearances.

I just went on a walk in my pajamas, greasy hair in a shitty bun, acne, and a pair of new balance sneakers. Cars passed by and I said hi to everyone who passed. Did I feel self-conscious? Of course, but it was worth it.

Now I feel a lot better, because I didn't A. Overextend by forcing myself to shower/get dressed/put on concealer beforehand or B. Avoid doing anything because I felt like a mess.

Go outside and be however you are. It's not your job to look good to random strangers, you deserve to go outside.
