Chiolet is the het ship between Charlie Brown and Violet Gray from the Peanuts fandom.
Canon[]
In the early years of the Peanuts comic strip, Charlie Brown and Violet Gray's relationship seemed to change day to day. In some strips, Violet would tell Charlie Brown how much she likes him and be concerned about whether or not he liked her back. In the early days, Violet usually talked about how much she liked Charlie Brown alongside her best friend Patty. In the strip from July 20, 1951, Violet offers Charlie Brown flowers, to which he declines due to the fact that he "can't accept flowers from a girl." Violet suggests the idea of him snatching the flowers out of her hand, and the strip ends with Violet impressed by Charlie Brown's masculinity.
In the strip from March 17, 1963, Violet offers Charlie Brown a valentine in person, admitting guilt for not giving him one earlier. Before he can respond, Violet is confronted by Schroeder, who happened to be nearby, for giving the valentine merely to ease her own conscience. In the end, however, Charlie Brown still accepts the valentine, much to Schroeder's surprise.
Notably, Violet was the first character ever not to let Charlie Brown kick a football. However, her reason for pulling away was for fear of him kicking her hand, whereas Lucy's motivation is usually sheer malice. She is the also first person to call Charlie Brown a "blockhead". Violet's verbal abuse towards Charlie Brown can be quite cruel and sometimes exceed even the severity of Lucy's insults.
On other occasions, however, Violet would be mean and rude to Charlie Brown and try to annoy him and hurt his feelings. As her appearances became less frequent in the later years of the strip, her mercurial nature was, however, unchanged: sometimes she would use any excuse to bring Charlie Brown down or elevate herself above him; while other times the two were quite cordial, often spending the day together chatting.
Fanon[]
Chiolet is considered a rarepair within the Peanuts fandom. The Chiolet tag on AO3 has 11 works as of May 2025. The ship doesn't have any major rival ships, though possible rivals could include BrownPelt, CharHeather, and PlaidViolet. Often times the pairing is compared with BrownPelt for Violet's rude, degrading, and adolescent demeanor sharing common ground with Lucy's own. This can serve as a leading factor for their possible rival ships.
Fans who come to endear this pairing are oftentimes lovers of the Opposites Attract trope. As discussed Violet is depicted as intensely more verbally abusive and judgmental, but Charlie's frustration can get him to become more cruel than her, as to show they can be equals and create an interesting power balance.
