SHIP DYNAMICS FOR MY MUSES

Fill out the ship sheet for each of your muses (or your primaries).

MUSE: NICO ROBIN

Attracted To: A good sense of humor; intelligence; strong convictions; curiosity; Weirdos™️; ambition; dreamers; hopeless romantics

Favorite Ship: Wanihana (Robin x Crocodile). It’s so far beyond complicated and that’s what intrigues me. He’s been her mentor, her boss, her captor, her companion, her confidant. He taught her not just how to survive, but how to thrive. They bring out the shadow and light in each other.

Honorary Mention(s): Robin x Nami (do i need to explain??); Robin x Law (nerd love 💕)

Least Favorite: Robin x Luffy. That’s her little brother. He’s just a little guy.

Guilty Pleasure: Robin x Sabo. I just know they were cooking during the timeskip. Bonding over the trauma of growing up lonely, finding their places in the world. I think Robin is a Revolutionary at heart and would absolutely be part of the Army if she wasn’t a Straw Hat.

Platonic Soulmates: Robin x Franky. They just get each other, I don’t know. They’re flirty and fun and they’re weirdly on the same wavelength. I don’t ship them romantically, but

Would Like to Explore: Robin x Koala (revolutionary girlies); Robin x Zoro (flirtatious nerdy girl x grumpy jock); Robin x Sanji (he makes her laugh 🥹) ; Robin x Perona (goth girls club); Robin x Katakuri (I think she’d think his mouth is cute and she would feed him donuts all fkn day okay); Robin x Brook? (weirdo x weirdo)

(More muses below the cut!)

MUSE: BOA HANCOCK (@hebikokoro)

Attracted To: Intelligence; resilience; romanticism; ambition; strength; humility; wit; powerful people who let her keep them on a leash (it’s giving Integra x Alucard)

Favorite Ship: Hancock x women?? Any women?? All women?? WOMEN

Honorary Mention(s): Hancock x Shanks. I just think he would be very reasonable with her and would treat her like a proper lady without inflating her ego. Like he would humble her a little bit, humanize her in a way that she would actually like because it would actually build her character. He would teach her to like puppies, I just know it.

Least Favorite: Hancock x Luffy. I think it works better if she’s like, his sworn protector because she admires his spirit and his resolve rather than being obsessed with him because he just doesn’t like her back. I think that’s a little cheap and their relationship deserves nuance and depth.

Guilty Pleasure: Hancock x Mihawk. LISTEN HE HAS THAT BIG ROMANTIC GOTHIC CASTLE ALL TO HIMSELF AND THEY BOTH DEFINITELY THINK THEY’RE BETTER THAN THE OTHER AND THEIR WHOLE RELATIONSHIP IS A COMPETITION but at the end of the day she still falls asleep against his chest with that snake curled up at the end of the bed, okay

Platonic Soulmates: Hancock x Perona. Do we not love spoiled princesses who know what they deserve??

Would Like to Explore: Hancock x Crocodile (I simply think he’d hate her and she’d tease him constantly and sit on his lap and have fancy dinners and commit atrocities with him); Hancock x Smoker (I saw what she did to him at Marineford and there’s no way he ain’t gaga for her); Hancock x Doflamingo (evil fashionista bitches)

MUSE: YAMATO (coming soon?)

Attracted To: Strength; ambition; dedication; strong morals; recklessness; wild cards; adventurous spirits; heroes who refuse to let you call them heroes

Favorite Ship: Yamato x Ace. Maybe my favorite ship in the whole series. I will cry just thinking about it.

Honorary Mention(s): N/A.

Least Favorite: Yamato x Sanji. Sanji will probably never respect that Yamato is trans masc. But if he did, I think they could be kind of cute? Like it would be a really big character development for Sanji to FINALLY understand that gender is far more nuanced than Boy = Blue and Girl = Pink. As it stands now, however, Yamato deserves someone who doesn’t fetishize him.

Guilty Pleasure: Yamato x Sabo. I swear I’m not just shipping everyone with Sabo just ‘cause. I really think they’d get along so well and swap stories about Ace and find a lot of common ground. Growing up noble with all this pressure to fulfill someone else’s dream that you know just isn’t you, fighting the good fight despite all the obstacles hammering down on you, the desire to be truly free.

Platonic Soulmates: Yamato and Hiyori, but in my headcanon where Yamato swears to protect the Kozuki children on behalf of their father to honor his spirit, not because he insists that he IS their father. That was just weird and I think the story works better if Yamato is embodying Oden’s spirit, taking up the title as more of a moniker than assuming his literal identity.

Would Like to Explore: Yamato x Koala (I just think he’d find her so endearing); Yamato x Zoro (fight fight fight); Yamato x Katakuri (idk they just give me good vibes); Yamato x Law; Yamato x Kid?; Yamato x anyone who would fight him tbh

MUSE: HINA (@kuroori)

Attracted To: Power; strength; determination; conviction; strategic minds; men she can step on

Favorite Ship: Hina x Smoker. Come on, now.

Honorary Mention(s): Hina x Kaku; Hina x Kalifa

Least Favorite: Hina x Akainu. No one ships this but I just have to take the chance to say I hate him.

Guilty Pleasure: Hina x Miss Double Finger. Idk I just think it’s neat. :))

Platonic Soulmates: Hina has no friends. :))

Would Like to Explore: Hina hates everyone so I’m not really sure.

something something despite the all horrors and tragedies of the world, love was there and that's all that matters

There's wholesome ships and there's toxic ships, but I'd like to coin 'sodium chloride ships', where the individuals involved are both horrible and dangerous people, but somehow being together renders them surprisingly well-adjusted (if a little salty).

ship dynamic i really like

[mintbees]

if i was a popular minecraft youtuber id just tweet "hey guys stop drawing shipping fanart of me and my friends/coworkers, i only fucked one of them and seeing me paired with anyone else is kinda weird and crosses my boundaries" and then i'd turn my phone off

Sometimes tweeter people know their stuff- this is the right kind of toxic angst I want to read.

In 1944 a kitten named George (short for General Electric) was saved from drowning by a U.S. Navy crew member. George was then photographed and given a liberty card and detailed health record. Source.

Suddenly struck with a need to explain to you how boat pronouns work (I work in the marine industry).

When you're talking about the design of the boat, you say "it".

When the boat is still being built, your say "it".

When the boat is nearing completion, you can say "it" or "she".

When the boat is floating in the water you probably say "she", unless there is still a lot of work to be done (e.g. no engine yet) then you say "it".

When the boat is officially launched and operating, you say "she". If you continue to say "it" at this point you are not incorrect but suspiciously untraditional. You are not playing the game.

If you are referring to a boat you don't really know anything about you may say "it" ("there's a big boat, it's coming this way"). But if you know its name, it's probably "she" ("there's the Waverley, she's on her way to Greenock").

If you are talking about boats in general, you say "it" ("when a boat is hit by a wave it heels over")

If you speak about a boat in complimentary terms, it's "she" ("she's a grand boat"). If you are being disparaging it may be it, but not necessarily ("it's as ugly as sin", "she's a grotty old tub").

If she has a boy's name, she's still she. "Boy James", "King Edward", "Sir David Attenborough"? The pronoun is she.

If it's a dumb barge (no engine), you say it. But if it's a rowing boat (no engine), you say she.

I hope this has cleared things up so that you may not be in danger of misgendering floating objects.
