Okay, I've spoken to several of you who like both of these things and I need to know how deep this runs because it's an 'if I had a nickel for each time this thing happened, I'd have (x) nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened (x) times' thing-

#contestshipping #shuuharu #totally ok to rb/add commentary in the tags. i am so nosy #I am TRULY curious because I have anecdotally/personally found such a huge overlap lmao. I can name like five or six of you.#which-again- not a lot but given the community's dwindling current size that feels rather notable?#it makes total sense to me tbh. obviously there's large differences #but I feel like it taps into a similar 'poorly socialized guy x the girl who hates him but oh wait there's mutual growth because of E/O'-#- kinda thing.#again obviously there's way more to P&P than that. literary besties don't kill me. but like you see my simplified point right lol?#there's also way more to Lizzie and Darcy than that but you know what I meannnnnnnnnnn #sorry for the disclaimers but i can hear the 'shipping has ruined your ability to do literary analysis' brigade from here lmfao.#like okay well maybe for you. i can multitask but this is my shippy blog so of course I'm focusing on that part more BUT ANYWAYS #i've just met way too many people who like both things for me to not make a poll about it at this point.#or is it just a thing of how p&p is so popular and iconic that ANY random fandom niche would have a similar overlap???#idk. does anyone want to make a poll for their fandom niche and see if it's just a P&P thing???#let's compare. besties. let us band together #someone else do this for their own ship/corner/niche/etc #and of course tumblr polls are statistically useless in most ways available BUT it's interesting.
