my gift fic for the 2023 hermbimas gift exchange, for @lunarrolls! read it on ao3 here :D

[mothiqs]

can we please normalize using homestuck quadrants for shipping in other fandoms because sometimes it is really the best way to describe this shit

[whatkindofnameisella]

me when that scene with the dragonborn was so cute but adaine is great ace rep but they had undeniable chemistry but i want to be respectful but i personally identify with adaine being girl who maybe isn't ace, just can't navigate high school ideas of romance, i mean who knows she's barely lived rep but he's a member of the rat grinders but he's hot but dragonborn romance is kinda weird but im obsessed with whatever they had going on

[bloomgrove]

+*. caduceus being clairvoyant must be a curse more than a gift since he knows when things have gone bad. he wakes up in a cold sweat one day and heads downstairs to the door where his mom and his siblings have gathered. orly is there and the clays know fjord's crew very well so, seeing the ship's navigator without their captain and having a very solemn expression just tells caduceus all. `

started thinking about beach & ocean/water aesthetics re: Paquinal and Cassian and, well...I'm not not imagining Cassian as a blitzball player and Paquinal in a summoner's outfit.

First Lines

Tagged by @thetragicallynerdy to share the first lines of my last ten fics! (Thank you for all the tags!!) I think I did this ages ago but I truly can't remember which ones I posted at the time, so I might as well do all ten!

Table Manners (Usopp/Sanji, Sanji teachs Usopp about fine dining etiquette)

See, there are some rules about the world that Usopp is still learning. He likes to think he’s a quick study—he’s kind of had to be, given he always seems to end up with the jobs nobody else wants—but weird things still catch him off guard: little details he’s never had a reason to notice, or care about.

2. Rosmarinus (Sanji + Nami, Sanji gives Nami a haircut and has some Feelings about it)

Sanji wouldn’t call hairdressing a particular talent of his, any more than Zoro would probably call lifting heavy objects a talent. It’s simply another application that his hands happen to be well suited for.

3. The Oar that Leads Us (Nami + Sanji, Nami and Sanji get stranded together in the East Blue)

They take stock in a moment of hard-fought calm: Sanji counts the food, while Nami counts her bruises.

4. Caleb Widogast's Five C's of Safe Return (Caleb/Essek, Caleb and Essek build a life together in Rexxentrum post-canon)

The little house sits along the western edge of the Tangles, just beyond the elegant disorder of the Court of Colors and its lively, winding streets. Its door is made of sturdy Dwendalian oak, but the floorboards are rosewood, brought from the shores of Nicodranas and laid in neat order by Caleb’s own hand.

5. burning up (for you, baby) (Caleb/Essek, the M9 have a beach day and Essek gets a sunburn)

The successful completion of a world-saving quest calls for a week in the sun: relaxation, rejuvenation, relocation (while the heat of Trent’s still-ongoing search dies down). With amulets slung over bathing wraps and under wide-brimmed hats, the Mighty Nein make their way back to Nicodranas, pay their respects to a grateful Yussa, and hit the beach.

6. Damage Control (Essek + Caleb, Essek gets hit by a curse in Aeor that devastates his powers)

“Ooo, look at this!” Essek looks up from his perusal of the cabinet’s bottom shelf to find his vision obscured by a curtain of deep, vibrant blue.

7. Echoes (Caleb/Essek, Essek is unsettled by Caleb's new eye-related powers)

There was a time when a voice from the darkness was comforting.

8. to say what lips cannot (Essek/Caleb, Essek muses about Caleb's hands)

It’s not hard to guess where the fascination began. So much of a wizard’s work is done with the hands. A forefinger extends, leaving wisps of smoke in the fiery ember’s wake. Crooked thumbs come together and apart, and space rends before their passing. A dot of sweet nectar passed over the lip, and the tongue becomes as deft as the curling wrist that placed it there. 

9. a liquor never brewed (Caduceus/Eodwulf, Caduceus has an unexpected crush)

“You don’t like meat, and you don’t like drink.” Eodwulf grins, arms uncrossing. “Is there anything you do like?”

10. your dust from mine (Fjord/Caduceus, Fjorclay retelling of The Goose Girl fairytale)

Fjord’s first memories are of darkness.

Phew, that was a lot! Tagging (if they feel like it!) @the-littlest-goblin, @saturdaysky, @soullistrations, and anyone else who feels like doing it!

[voidstifyinq]

I still miss the shadowgast/beaujester/fjorclay campaign 2 era I’m breaking my silence I’m sorry

[cringefaecompilation]

fjord and caduceus

imogen and fearne

it’s so fucking good but i am banning all imogen and/or laudna haters from consuming it

Shipper Tag Game

Tagged by @tj-dragonblade! I'm not sure if (m)any of these answers will be interesting at all, because apparently I have a bad memory for ships apart from the ones I made fanart of myself, and I haven't read a lot of fanfic for a long long time.. But I've attempted answering these questions anyway!

What ship were you completely obsessed with as a teenager, but now you don’t care about anymore?

I didn't ship much as a teen. I liked the Marauders gang from HP a lot as a kid, tho, likely even in a shippy way. Obviously HP has left a really bad taste my mouth.

Which ship would you consider your first one?

It was probably a HP one, I was properly obsessed with Sirius, James and Remus for a long time, but like I said, I have a hard time telling when I started consciously shipping characters.

Your first fanfic was about which couple?

Hinata and Naruto and it was baaad. I guess it was maaaybe kind of cute, but it was not good.

Do you remember the first couple you saw fan art of?

Not at all. The most likely options are anyone from HP, Death Note, or InuYasha, but it hasn't stuck with me.

Have you ever gotten into ship discourse?

Nah, the closest I've gotten was the time I got put on a blacklist (or two?) for a shipping Yamato and Sai. I didn't care and so didn't address it, until someone sent me a (kind) message about it. I then explained my feelings about the problematic aspect and the (few) responses I got were 100% positive.

Did you used to have a NOTP or have one currently?

There are plenty of ships I don't particularly like, but I wouldn't call them NOTP's. Except maybe the very very popular ones. I only take real issue with ships that become canon, like a fair few Naruto pairs..

Who were the last couple in the last fanfic you read?

Reading has been hard the last couple of years, so I haven't done much of it.. But it has to have been a Dreamling fic - I'm so excited you've been writing again, TJ 💖

Currently, do you have any OTPs?

MatsuMasa, although they're not my otp in the literal sense. I like them both with Yaichi, and Matsu (non-romantically) with Ume - and the fun thing is that it works all at the same time 😎

Is there any couple that, to this day, you are extremely mad about not getting into?

Hmm well I'm kinda mad at not being as into Dreamling as you are, TJ. I like Sandman and Dreamling! Very much looking forward to the second season and I enjoy the things you blog about, but it's never been more than a general appreciation. And that's fine, ofc, but it's always been such a joy to be excited by the same things as you haha

Is there any ship you used to dislike but now you think they’re kind of interesting?

Maybe KakaGai? Only I didn't dislike it, just didn't consider it. And I don't think it's kind of interesting, I deeply love it.

Do you have any ship that, in the past, would have been considered normal but now you would be cancelled over?

I already mentioned YamaSai, but there's also ShisuItachi. Some people say that the latter is incest. It's been too long and I don't remember their specific relationship, but afaik they're not (direct) family, just from the same clan. Can't get too bothered about family trees in fiction.

Kikyo and Kagome from InuYasha is by some considered gross as well, comparable to incest, because Kagome is Kikyo's reincarnation?

Idk, is FjorClay problematic, because Caduceus is canonically aroace? I feel like it's not a super popular ship anyways, but I still like them a lot. In a queer platonic way.

What is your favourite crack ship?

I don't think I have one. Although I wonder if JonGerry from the Magnus Archives could be considered crack ship? They aren't from different fandoms, but they only met once after Gerry had already died. And then at Gerry's request, Jon sort of killed him again. It doesn't really count as a crack ship, but this is my answer anyway

What is the couple you read the most fanfics about?

Hm, I don't know! The last time I really obsessively read them was in my Naruto era.. So who knows - KakaGai is a very plausible answer.

What do most of your ships have in common?

I guess I most commonly like pairings with a Gentle Giant™ (preferably kind of dumb) and someone grumpy and/or cynical and smart and/or skilful. MatsuMasa, BeauYasha and ShikaChou come to mind.

What do you absolutely hate in a ship?

Hard to explain. Wrong vibes lol. Look I can appreciate love-hate or even hate-hate relationships as much as the next shipper, but there needs to be at least some level of respect/consent/two-way-street? I still dislike SasuSaku, because they very much have none of that from what I remember. They've always been close to a NOTP and then they became canon so..

[wlwfleuret]

I still think queerplatonic fjorclay should’ve been canon but anyways

[theonlycorrectcropinions]

Lmao there’s already c2 shipping drama in the cr tags, this rules. Absolute psycho shit.

For the record, here is the objectively correct listing of the major ships in c2 that I care about (the only important ones, because I had to see posts about them):

1. Beaujester - best ship, amazing chemistry, some of the best interactions.

2. Fjorester - great ship, natural progression, really interesting for each character’s growth.

3. Beauyasha - fine, would have been better if they ever stopped being so damn awkward.

4. Shadowghast- yay! annoying stans of both are interacting with each other.

5. Whatever Caleb/Nott was called idk - whatever.

6. Fjorclay - bad.

7. Other - other.

8. Widojest - none of you will see heaven (or understand either character as more than a self insert).

Sumeru Character Names

if you’re going to play genshin, you should at least know how to pronounce the character’s names.

note ; i am a farsi speaker. these are farsi pronunciations, but they can be used interchangeably w the arabic. i will also only be doing characters w arab or farsi names as south asian pronunciation is not my forte.

al haitham - al like in alfredo, hai-tam.

tighnari - the g almost sounds like a k here, it’s pretty sharp. tig-nah-hri.

nilou - knee-low.

kaveh - not kavi. it is not even remotely CLOSE to kavi. this one is actually a farsi name, it’s kha-veh.

dehya - day-a.

nahida - nah-he-duh.

i hope this was helpful!!!!

as an aroace person i don’t get the discourse around fjorclay. like. aromanticism is a spectrum dude. queer platonic relationships also exist. tbh i think alloromantics should just be quiet ❤️

“well if you don’t like kanej and helnik what do you like”

wymatt! inej and nina! kazper! wesper ofc (i think it’s the canon ship that has the most goin for it)! kazmatt is good but i think no one ships that and probably for good reason? jesper and nina would be cute too. my apologies for having unwanted opinions and enjoying different things i guess
