imagine you and your F/O(s) making each other as sock puppets. Maybe even doing goofy skits together. Who burns themselves with the hot glue and gets their sock puppet stuck to themselves. How creative do yall get with the googly-eyes, buttons, little pompoms, colored pipe cleaners, string, yarn, felt, maybe even trying to make little tube outfits?

[daily-selfship-questions]

What role would your F/O(s) play if you and them got transported into a stereotypical Western? What would their outfit be like?(Or if already from a Western, what would they be in a more modern time?)

[daily-selfship-questions]

What do hugs from your F/O(s) feel like, if they are comfortable giving hugs to you? Tight embraces that squeeze the air out of you? Loosely draping one arm over your shoulder and giving you a side-hug? Sneaking up from behind and wrapping their arms around you? Tackle hugs? Maybe they like hugs but don't know how to express it or what to do, so they get stiff as you hug them and maybe manage to raise an arm up to pat you on the back?

Whatever the case is, at least you can feel them take a deep inhale and long exhale as they relax. Even if they weren't upset and in need of comfort, sometimes just the gesture can mean a lot

Are your F/O(s) licorice candy enjoyers?

[daily-selfship-questions]

What's a special precious memory that you have with your F/O(s)? Was it a particularly defining moment in yalls relationship? Or perhaps just a time where you two finally got to relax and spend some quality time with someone you care about?

[daily-selfship-questions]

How would celebrating your F/O(s) birthday go? Would they view it as just a simple party, or would they perhaps get a bit choked up over the thought of having a special day to celebrate *them*? Do they like surprises of what type of gift/treats/events they'll get, or do they prefer getting to take part in it and mapping out their big day? Maybe your F/O(s) don't have a canonical birthday, so imagine picking one out with them! Everyone deserves a day to be reminded how special they are by ones who love them, after all. Or maybe you just show up one day with a treat and candles and tell them something along the lines of "Hey, I realized that no one seems to really know your birthday- not even yourself- so today is your special day!!" Maybe their birthday becomes some random tuesday, or just gets defaulted to January 1st, or maybe there is some relation to why that day got chosen. Maybe they're a little dorky and if they got the choice, they wanna make their birthday the same day as Halloween or something.

Hiii! Love your blog and how you help me think of my f/o's responses to the questions, it really helps me flesh them out more. You don't have to post this if it's against the rules, I just wanted to maybe ask if you (or anyone else here) have any recommendations of games and stuff where you can make yourself and your f/os. I know of things like The Sims, but I'd really like something along the lines of a non-problematic version of Yandere Simulator's custom mode, something with more things to do in the game than just a life sim. Idk I think it would be really cute to have something like that and make myself and my f/o in it. Keep up the good work with this blog!

Ahh hi anon!! I'm so happy to hear this!! It always makes my day to hear that this blogged is being enjoyed.

I would say I don't really have rules for what can or can't be discussed here! Just so long as it's kept lighthearted and there aren't any F/O name drops, I wanna keep this place a nice little cozy happy spot for as many as I can :]

I know some mobile games like Adorable Home and PocketLove can be fun for F/O stuff! But it can be a little tricky if your F/O isn't human(and Adorable Home only has some default options to pick from). If you have a 3DS(particularly a modded one, or if you know your way around emulators) making you and your F/Os in Tomadachi Life(or Miitopia) could also be fun! Or just making your F/Os, that way you can feed them and give them outfits and different interiors and cute stuff. I'd just be a litttleee careful with that one if you're worried about the Miis falling for another person. And it can also be tricky if your relationship with your F/O isn't hetero. The mobile game Toca Boca World is also super cute and incredibly customizeable, it's basically a dollhouse world though, so it'll take some imagination, but it can still be cute to stick you and your F/O in a cafe and give them slushies and just admire it.

I don't really know many computer game options, my apologies for that.. I normally keep my F/O shenanigans to my phone because I feel too 'exposed' doing it from my computer on most occasions..!

If you really wanna go crazy, you could make a Stardew Valley mod and make your F/Os the romancable options. Or go crazy if you have several F/Os and get the polyam mod. There are a lot of Stardew mods so I dont think retexturing them and giving them different dialog is toooo tricky, and you can also make non-human one's here!! But if you aren't super good with pixel art it might be a bit rough. But I know this can be a lot if you don't have Stardew/an interest in it.

Alternatively, you could make your F/O into a shemiji if you are comfortable with digital art! The only reason I never did this myself was cause I thought my computer was doomed to not run shemijis for a while haha! But this is more of just aweing at your F/O than really seeing them with you. And this also works if your F/Os are non-human.

It's a bit tricky to come across things that have room for non-human stuff! I can't think of anything more at the moment but if I do, perhaps I'll come back and edit this post with it/add it in the replies!

[daily-selfship-questions]

How do you hang out with your F/O(s) when yall are not in person? Do yall call frequently over phone or a software like discord? Video calls or voice calls? Maybe you two aren't much for calling and just stick to messages?

Or maybe yall just sit longing for one another till the other is back....

Does your F/O(s) maybe have some sort of supernatural way to communicate with you like telepathy or transmitting a message right to you?

[daily-selfship-questions]

Do you and your F/O(s) have anything dedicated specifically to one another? Something that you will only do with them? Something you will only share with them? Maybe they're the only one you feel comfortable showing physical affection with, or you two have a special video game reserved for just playing with one another?

Doesn't have to be just for romantic F/Os! Maybe there's something you only share/do with your family member or best friends

Hii! I'm Danna (beginner selfshipper, started last month, actually.) idk if this is the right place to ask but... how would you suggest finding selfshipper friends as someone who's rly shy and has no social media? (I literally ONLY made a tumblr acc for the yumeshipping community lmaooo) Idk if it helps but i'm really big on video games (RE, SH2, FFVII, etc) , horror things, art, writing... you know... that stuff xdddd and i've recently gotten into CAS (Cigarettes after sex, which i'm loving atm). ---- Where can i find friends with similar interests in the YS space while being so shy like this? 😭😭 tysmmmm

Hello! This is totally a place for asking things! :]

I'd say the most common and effective way would perhaps be to do some promo posts. There is a thing called 'promo hour' where people reblog all of their mutuals promo posts, but honestly you can make one whenever!! On it you just put stuff you want others to know about you, to 'promote' yourself! Maybe like your name, your F/Os(or your main ones or fandoms) and stuff you like! It can be short or lengthy. Some people do fun text colors or add blinkies or pictures to spruce it up a bit. Reaching out can be a good method. Leaving little comments on people's stuff and whatnot! If you're super shy cause I know you said you're anxious, you could leave a few asks and talk with the person through anon and see how they are before or ask if they're alright with being mutuals or DMs or whatnot and just chat with them a little, see how they are before you dive in head first. Or do dive in headfirst! Either works.

But if you're too nervous to put yourself out there like that yet, then I'd say something else you could do is scroll through the "selfship promo" tags, and look at other people's promos and blogs! That way you can pick out who you think would be neato.

It can be a little tricky sometimes, obligatory mention that some feel as though the selfshipping community has gotten a little more closed off than it used to be, so it might be harder to find interaction and things can feel like a popularity contest sometimes.

I have it in my pinned post that i am totally open to making friends and added some fun info about myself, and also tagged my selfshipping blog in the pinned of this post, just in case anyone ever got curious! That might help a bit. I haven't gotten a lot of people from it but the few that I have have been a ball of a time so I'd say it's worth it. It depends what you're looking for, I suppose. If you want a following or if you want to make some close friends to talk with! Which, either one you want is totally understandable.

And, if all of that is too much for you right now, just posting your stuff in the selfship tags can work slow and steady. It's not as scary as it sounds I promise, very few people will probably see your post(unless you decide to do some imagines, those can pick up quite a bit!)

What's your favorite/go-to way to feel closer to your F/O(s)?

[daily-selfship-questions]

Have you or your F/O(s) ever locked themselves out of the house? If it was a place where yall live together, did one rush to let the other in or tease them a bit before opening the door? If yall live separately, did one call the other for the spare key, or crash at their place till they found a way in? Maybe yall even did some 'breaking and entering' into your own place..

[daily-selfship-questions]

Scent headcanons for my F/O is hard because he's canonically such a smelly little idiot who'd rather do just about anything than bathe. Other than his natural mix of advanced BO (and God knows what else) he's absolutely the kind to splash on some cruddy chip cologne

Though he's not the type to appreciate conventionally nice smells, he does enjoy when I use a particular strawberry shampoo because he associates it so much with me <3

Ay, I totally get that! I have some F/Os that definitely just smell like whatever their natural oder happens to be, sometimes a bit stinky if they go for a while without showering. Some F/Os just stick with smelling natural and don't care much for putting on perfumes/strongly scented things!

And I mean hey, people are still funky animal creatures, some people like the natural smell. Not saying that that's your case here anon, but some F/Os are just stinky. Stinky F/O un-shame propaganda. The prompt was just what you headcannon they smell like! And sometimes that's natural body smell(which can be hard to describe) and not always some artificial smell. Which also isn't bad!

Strawberry shampoo sounds like it would smell very good though.

[daily-selfship-questions]

Do you have any scent headcannons for your F/O(s)? Doesn't have to be just for romantic ones!

[daily-selfship-questions]

Is your F/O(s) the type to take naps when they are tired? Do you have to coax them into naps or taking it easy when they are exhausted? Or perhaps they're napping all the time, eager to catch a break when they can?

[daily-selfship-questions]

Imagine you and your F/O(s) are making a time capsule for yall's relationship(Any form of relationship type works!). What are yall putting in the box? Does someone get too upset about burying the stuff or that yall might forget to dig it up to want to actually do it?

[daily-selfship-questions]

Today's date is 7/11! What free Slurpee flavor are you and your F/O(s) getting?
