When two characters are in love with one another, but they’re both playing a role. They’re interacting exclusively with each other through masks and personas and dances of lies and half truths. And the line between the mask and the[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The “let me kill for you. PLEASE let me kill for you” dynamic, but the person being asked finally, eventually says “yes.”

So fucking addicted to toxic, messy ships. Give me the angst, the drama, the pain, the longing, the heartache, the frustration. Give me the ‘we can’t keep going on this way, but I can’t imagine ever stopping’.
“I’m writing this for nobody” I say, looking at the low stats on the fic I was excited about. WRONG. I am writing it for me. And I am still excited about it.
I’m really glad I’m not the only one who feels that way, anon. Thanks for reaching out, it means a lot. 🤝 context link
Dahlia Hawthorne. I can’t think of any others, unless we’re talking crack ships like Kirstoph x Manfred Von Karma, or Kristoph x Damon Gant. I can say firmly there aren’t any ships that I can think of that aren’t with[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
there are so many fun m/f pairings that I like, but the fandom emphasis on them settling down and getting married and having babies makes me nauseous and upset so I just mostly stick to slash pairings instead when it[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
It’s really wild when you look at a pair of characters who interact in canon and your reaction is “oh they’re obviously meant to be a couple” then you go on AO3 and they’re a barely existent rare pair. It’s[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
catgirl-catboy: I hate the complaints about the lack of femslash because they fundamentally miss the POINT. The problem isn’t that people are sexist and homophobic, so there’s less wlw. Its more, people are sexist and homophobic, and to combat that[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
dubiously moral or outright evil royalty and their unfathomably devoted personal servant/knight/advisor is simply one of the top ships of all time.
I’m starting to get really, genuinely frustrated with myself that I just can’t make narumitsu click in my head, independent of Maya. I see narumayo, and I see mitsumayo, but every time I sit down to write narumitsu, they repel[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
sagegarnish: ALT One of my fave ship dynamics tbh Even tastier when the older one is in a mentor type role
ferocioustrout: normalize shipping two characters just because you like them both. “they never interacted” they interact in my brain when I think about them constantly. get fucked. they’re making out rn.
Like 85% of my ships are gay ships. I promise you I don’t have some kind of agenda when I tell you no, the source material doesn’t actually have any canonical gay people in it.
wish people treated shumako like the rough, brutal yaoi I know it is in my heart. Don’t even get me started on akeshumako. Yall are missing out on the trio of all time.
Using fanfic to twist canon into knots so that my impractical rarepair actually makes sense other people.
elainiisms: “you can’t ship those characters they tried to kill each other!” sounds like someone can’t appreciate the inherent eroticism of violence 🙄
I hate that when there’s no fics for a pairing I think should have fics there is only one thing i can do about it. *cracks knuckles*
indisputablypercy: people who full heartedly love ships which are hated on by the fandom for seemingly no reason are the backbone of Any fandom. i love you.
ohshitthisbloghasothercolors: It’s a het ship to YOU. To ME, they are both incredibly bisexual.
I just think there needs to be less (read: none) attacking people over headcanons, theories, ideas and interpertations in general. Sadly, this is not a new thing. Ship wars and headcanon wars have been going on in fandom forever– I[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Thank you, this is a huge compliment XD <333 All of these ships also fit “neatly” into my overarching expanded timeline plot!

when you don’t know the ship name for a pairing, so you start randomly squishing parts of their names together and searching it. (the pairing probably doesn’t exist anyway)
sometimes a comfort ship can be a ship that is so toxic.
ind3cisive-cl0wn: Kristoph x apollo will always make me kind of uncomfortable because in the game, i interpreted their relationship as more parental or at least very teacher/student-ey – what do you mean you unironically and seriously earnestly ship them?? Even[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Genuinely believe that solving a mystery together is the most romantic thing that you can do with your partner. Mystery solving creates lasting relationships.
stupidfuckingcatstuckinshower: When the ship has so much toxic yaoi potential but its stuck in a fandom full of antis
One of my favorite things about polyamory fic is that, because a character is having different needs filled by different partners (and serving different needs of different partners), you get to see many aspects of their character that might not[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

kyliafanfiction: I ship the ship because I think it makes for a more interesting story. You ship the ship because you thing A is the only one worth of B and that they’re ‘soulmates’. We are Not The Same.
