The Saiki K fandom is an almost perfect fandom. Almost. It would be perfect if people stopped POLICING MY FUCKING SHIP. It’s a perfectly legal, normal ship. But y’all just HAVE to be hypocrites when it comes to shipping Saiki with anyone.

I see plenty of posts shipping Saiki romantically with Teruhashi or Aiura, and no one has anything bad to say, but when i ship him with Satou suddenly it’s a problem, suddenly it’s “he’s aroace!!! you can’t ship him with anyone!!!” or “Saiki doesn’t canonically like anyone” Atp it’s just homophobia, plain and simple.

First of all, i’m aroace, i ship what i want with characters who represent ME. I know how aroace people behave in romantic relationships, therefore i don’t need roaches in my ears yapping about how bad it is to ship them, because god forbid an aroace person defies your expectations for how they behave romantically. Putting us all in a fucking box won’t solve shit.

Second of all, and i can’t stress this enough, IT. DOES. NOT. FUCKING. MATTER. Shipping is supposed to be fun, i do not care what is canon and what isn’t canon, but if we wanna nitpick then Saiki canonically has a crush on Satou in the manga. There. I do not care that Satou has a gf. Or what makes Saiteru or Saiura more implied. But don’t get on my ass for shipping Saiki with someone only when i ship him with a man (whom he’s canonically obsessed with, his motives don’t matter)

If i look for content about these two all i find is really mean-spirited videos telling people that the ship is abhorrent and we’re worth less than dirt for liking it. Shit, even on shipping posts we aren’t free to do what we want! Artists will get hit with the “oh i hate the ship but cool art!” THAT ISN’T THE COMPLIMENT YOU THINK IT IS. STOP FUCKING INTERACTING. NO ONE LIKES YOU.

Anyways, even if they’re not my favorite Saiki K ship (i’m a kubokai truther), they still mean a lot to me, so i’d appreciate if allos stopped speaking over me trying to dictate what i can and can’t ship.

hey so i just played the new story quest for the sumeru event and??? it was insane, i’m going insane…

Haikaveh caring for Mehrak… KAVEH PROGRAMMED MEHRAK TO SPECIFICALLY RECOGNIZE ALHAITHAM’S VOICE?! WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS IT’S LITERALLY LIFE CHANGING INFORMATION THEY’RE IN LOVE YOUR HONOR (Neuvi).

Hoyo try making a single Haikaveh scene where they don’t act like a married couple challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

What if… we get to see them again for the final quest where the festival will presumably take place… And Cynari… and Candehya… Sabzeruz festival? More like Pride Parade.

I like your opinions though, can you rate FuQing (Fu Xuan x Qingque)

Of course!

As i never had any strong feelings about either character, and also completely forgot what happened in the game (did i genuinely play with my eyes closed???) i did some research before coming up with a decent enough opinion

And the verdict is:

Pretty good!

From what i’ve read it’s a very fun dynamic, love the no-bullshit hard worker x total bag of potatoes lazy ass. It makes up for some great banter imo.

Honestly, hsr does a fantastic job with its yuri, so even if this ship doesn’t particularly stand out to me, i can still understand why people ship it, and why the characters are liked in general. I adore getting into new things, and my curiosity will always take control over everything else i got going on. From what i’ve seen so far, it’s a totally solid ship!

So for that, i’ll give it a 7/10! Good, but not a personal fave ^^

Have a good day anon :)

Hi sorry idk shit about you but I was browsing through tags and saw your rate abt jiaofeiqiu (which btw consider not tagging the ship to avoid people coming to your blog dissatisfied with your rating, some ships have fanbases that are a bit strict on that, but it's up to you really)

And as a queer person, I just wanna say I feel you and I don't trust any straight person with Jiaofeiqiu 😭 they have a type of devotion going on that you can only find in danmei or doomed yuri

Nothing relevant, just something I wanted to comment. Heterosexuality™ is very boring to me, you're so real for that. You gotta sprinkle mlw ships with at least a little bit of rainbow

Hey! Pleasure to meet you, as you can see i’m a very opinionated person.

I’ll keep that in mind! Tho i think i kept it pretty respectful, i do know how some fanbases can get about shipping (especially straight fans ahem).

I’m glad i’m not the only one who feels this way! So far i’ve found very few mlw ships that appeal to me, because most of them uphold very redundant (or straight up gross) gender stereotypes, so when they get hit with the trans ray, or both of them are under the bi umbrella, it’s very refreshing to see!

The mlw ship i probably tolerate the most because of this (not in the hsr fandom, in general) is Millie and Moxxie from Helluva Boss. Say what you will about the media in question, but it’s objectively hilarious that this married imp couple shares an ex, and the guy gets pegged. Imo they’re both bi, even if canonically only Moxxie is.

Also, from what i’ve seen, most mlw ships are shipped exclusively as a gotcha moment to the more popular same-sex counterparts, which just doesn’t sit right with me. Let the gays have something to rejoice over please!!

Hey guys! I’ve made a new blog.

Something i’ve been really passionate about, these past few months, is a story involving my ocs, which are all inspired by the stray cats that i take care of in my spare time. I’ve posted something there already, so consider checking it out.

I have to quickly organize some stuff about the world-building and story, and as soon as i’m done (for the moment) i’ll start posting semi-regularly to show off the characters and some little details about how i want the story to go!

Any help from writers is appreciated, asks are already open in that blog, also for any questions from interested audience!!!

hi :) thoughts on jiaoqiu x feixiao?

Hello!! Little reminder that i do not judge anyone for the ships they like before i get into this post ^^

There’s 2 big things that keep me from getting into this ship: The fact that i stopped playing right as these characters were released, and the fact that it’s a straight ship.

The first one could easily be fixed, i recently came back to the game because as a Sunday enthusiast i need to have him now that i know he’ll be playable, but i am still in Penacony lore-wise, so i have absolutely no clue what these characters are like, and what their story is. Beating the Sunday boss will be a total pain in the ass, so i expect this situation to be unchanging for a long time lol

For the second one, it really is that simple, i find straight ships completely unrelatable (and usually a little boring) so i can’t get into them. I’m a lesbian, so i love wlw ships (tho i don’t consume much content for them because i relate TOO much), and mlm ships are still gay so there’s still some relatability to it, which i cannot find with straight relationships.

If you view the characters in this ship as queer in some way, i could try and get behind it, but tbh i don’t wanna force myself to do something that doesn’t particularly interest me. With all that said, i don’t mind if you like it! Do as you wish and don’t let anyone force you to change the ships you’re into😭 My opinion truly shouldn’t matter as i’m only one person in a horde of people who probably go crazy over it.

4/10 (their designs are really nice!!) with all the love in this world, please make sure to have a good day 🫶🏻

oh also thoughts on arlefuri?? -hsr / genshin anon

I’ve felt positively about this ship ever since i saw their first interaction! I don’t get how most of the fandom did a complete 180 on them, calling them toxic. or abusive.

Even though i strongly prefer Arlebina, sometimes i need a little something on the side, and this is perfect!! I was sweating during that tea scene, and could honestly feel that tension from miles away, never take away toxic yuri from me PLEEK

8/10 ^^

thoughts on galladay??

Hey anon!! I’m finally active again, sorry for the wait 😓😓

Onto a more positive note, LOVE Galladay!! I’m a freak for religious themes in ships and Sunday is one of my favorite HSR characters so this ship is peak to me.

Also, big shoutout to their fan artists because they always make bangers.

All i know is that Sunday needs to get fucked (literally) so i’m happy to hear that someone is up to the task! 9/10 for me, pal!

Overall very little thoughts because i still haven’t gotten the hang of most hsr lore, but this pairing has so much potential that i might just have to start looking into it!

So I have read several people complaining that they can’t be expected to know the “unwritten rules” of fandom. So here’s what I wish people knew:

Fanfiction is fiction.

Fictional people are not real.

Fictional people do not have rights.

Fictional people cannot be abused.

Reading or writing about something does not mean the desire to do or support it in the real world.

If I find art upsetting/triggering/disgusting/outraging/unpleasant/squicky/distressing/offensive, it is on me not to read it, not the creators and hosts to remove it.

Curate your own experience. The back buttons exist for a reason.

If you don’t trust yourself to do that, get someone you trust to do it for you.

Fandom is an adult space. Adults create and own and host fandom spaces. If minors want to participate, then the onus is on them and their parents/guardians/trusted adults to ensure they participate appropriately, not on strange adults to stop being adults.

You often don’t know the assault status or mental health status or neurotype or race or nationality or religion or gender or sexuality or age of a creator or consumer, and they do not have to disclose to you to justify their fantasy.

AO3 is not a safe space. It is not intended to be a safe space. Proceed accordingly.

Just because you don’t like something or find it offensive doesn’t mean it is a “problem” that “has to be dealt with”.

Most characters in anime are not white.

There is no onus on you to reblog or share anything.

Everyone makes mistakes in fandom and is less than their best self sometimes.

Persistent pseudonyms encourage long term relationships.

Ship wars are stupid.

Someone else enjoying things does not impact on your own enjoyment of other things.

Tagging and warning is a courtesy, not a requirement. Assume any fic might contain untagged content.

Rating is an imprecise art, not a science.

Don’t hassle IP creators.

Most people who are in fandom are hoping to make connections based on a shared passion.

Trying to profit from transformative fanworks puts us all at risk.

No one is obligated to share your head canon or fanon.

Being kind rarely fails to pay off.

It is okay to block and remove people who make your experience unpleasant. You don’t have to placate them. (Learn from my mistakes).

Britpicking is a good thing.

You don’t have to justify why you like a canon/pairing/trope/kink. Sometimes navel gazing is fun, but you don’t have an obligation to explain yourself, especially to strangers. I share the overwhelming desire to refute an unfair accusation, but the people accusing you are rarely doing so in good faith, so you’re batting a losing wicket.

I’m not your Mum. (Well, okay, a very few of you can call me Mum or Mom, but if you are one of them you already know who you are ❤️)

If you aren’t mature enough to take responsibility for your online experiences, you aren’t mature enough to be in fandom spaces.

[qu0rky]

my most controversial take yet probably: i do not care about anything you guys choose to do in fandom spaces, as long as it is inconsequential to real life.

Toxic ships? go ahead! enemies to lovers in fiction is peak

Pro-shipping? it actually just means promoting anti-harassment, which i 100% vouch for

Fujos? Liking gay media is totally fine, just don’t bother actual gay people irl and we’re good. Also most of them are queer teenage girls.

Headcanons that change someone’s canon sexuality? not my cup of tea, especially when the sexuality is already underrepresented in media, but DO AS YOU PLEASE why would i care what a stranger chooses to do on the internet in their free time oml i have better shit to do😭

There is not a single thing on the internet, involving nonexistent things that could possibly piss me off, including rpf, but for that i gotta explain a little more.

Yes, RPF is technically about real people, but most of the times all that’s “real” about them is their likeness, which could just count as a face claim, since the rest is shit that did. not. happen. irl. so they become characters in a fictional world.

Most celebrities do not care, they have jobs and the only way they could find these fics is if they personally go looking for them, which atp is a them issue😭 why would you willingly do that if you already know you won’t like it.

I can assure you, kpop idols don’t have the time to search up fics of themselves and get mad at them, focus on real problems in the industry instead, like extreme diets, not getting paid fairly, actual abuse, and so on…

People getting uncomfortable on THEIR behalf is ridiculous, if you don’t like it it’s so easy to ignore those fics😭😭

Negativity has NO PLACE in fandom spaces.

[qu0rky]

if u check beanstalks on ao3 they have a few fun fics :) and 1stDraftCat has the best kavetham characterisation ever

tysm anon!!! you’re all godsends on this site frfr

[qu0rky]

whatever white person came up with “good riddance” because their lifelong enemy had finally left needs their ass eaten ngl. i can’t imagine being so angry at someone i make up a new saying just to rejoice their departure.

[qu0rky]

Please share fic recs for the ships i tagged, it’s for research purposes (i need something to read at 1 am)

[qu0rky]

i may be 18 but i’m absolutely an old lady at heart. i play solitaire every day, i love sudokus, crossword puzzles, bingo, i wanna start crocheting, i love cats and i especially enjoy complaining

[qu0rky]

will i ever watch/read that? no, probably not.

but do i still go on ao3 to search up its most popular homoerotic ship and get infodumped all the necessary lore in order to enjoy the fics? yes, give me 14 more of that.

[qu0rky]

i love love LOVE teacher x teacher ships. but i can never find good fics that are just about the teachers. it always has to involve their class, or the teens they hang around with. don’t get me wrong, found family is cute, but i just wanna see the teachers be silly on their own for once😓

[qu0rky]

Do you ship it?
