Envilico

Envilico is the slash ship between Envi and Licorice from the Funamusea fandom.

Canon
Envi is the subordinate to Satanick, the devil lord of Ne-no-Kuni. Licorice is the illegitimate son of Satanick. Licorice heavily dislikes his father and makes no qualms about voicing and showing it. Envi, however, is highly devoted and even in love with his lord. Thus, Envi and Licorice have been at odds for a long time due to their differing views of Satanick. Licorice frequently visits his father's world, and as such, runs into Envi. The two seem to constantly be at each others' throats each time they meet. Envi dislikes many of Satanick's illegitimate children - Licorice in particular. One illustration even depicts the demon grabbing Licorice's child form by the collar as the young demon struggles to break free. One of the things that exacerbates Envi's anger towards Licorice is his arrogant attitude. The fact that Licorice's face looks very similar to Satanick's also upsets him.

Licorice has shown up to Satanick's castle with the intention of killing him. However, he is stopped by Envi pointing a keris at his throat. It is thanks to Satanick intervening and becoming sick that the two cease bickering. Envi runs to take care of his lord while Licorice watches with a troubled expression before storming off. Envi and Licorice have gotten into a fight before which resulted in Licorice losing his left arm. Being the clear victor, Envi brings Licorice with him to subsequently torture and violate him. Licorice tries to convince himself that he doesn't have a preference for gender and that it doesn't matter since it wasn't an important first time. He internally laments to his mother that he has been dirtied. Licorice cried for a while at night because of the shock of what Envi did to him. It has been said that Envi and Licorice can never get along.

Fanon
Envilico is a controversial yet popular ship amongst fans. A common trope for this pairing is enemies to lovers or simply enemies with benefits. Many see the pairing as a great opportunity for companionship since both Envi's and Licorice's main love interests will remain unrequited. As such, the two rejected lovers are paired together and find solace in one another. Others enjoy the pair's toxicity, thus creating tons of angst and drama.
