[orbitular]

the good: wanderrose aren't related!

the bad: wanderrose are related

the ugly: wanderrose aren't related! but one of them canonically starts dating a different character and now I have to choose between still shipping them or respecting the canon wishes

what are your headcanons about Juliana and Florian?

oughhghghg where to begin

Both

-Juliana (Jules for short) and Florian (Flori, Flor, etc) are twins! Juliana is the older one. This is inspired by the fact that... they look so similar in their official art! All the recent protags all do but these two take the cake. It's so funny to me. -they look so similar in fact, that they could be body doubles! but that's totally wrong and unethical they'd never... right? -I like the HC that they're both from Galar (their mom having Skwovet and using a British term early-game, the Galarian pokemon stickers in their room, etc). They're both Paldeans, but were raised there before moving back to their hometown with mom.

-Fun thing about Scarlet/Violet is that they're such huge games that it's totally justifiable to have dual protags doing different things. Because of this, I decided to have Juliana handle the 'battle-heavy' routes like Victory Road while Florian, who is more research-focused (and has main character syndrome) features more in The Hidden Treasure arc. -I can't decide on who really does Starfall Street yet, but I'd like for Path of Legends to be the both of them helping Arven since it's the most plot-heavy and has to do with endgame. -Don't ask how but both Koraidon and Miraidon exist at the same time and the twins are their trainers. -In my recent art of them, you'll notice Juliana and Florian's eyes get all blue/crystal-like! this is an effect of their time in Area Zero/being exposed to that much Terastal energy. just them though, no one else...

Florian

-additionally, Flo's hair turns from a purply-brown to pink post-game because he's named "Haruto" in Jp, meaning spring. this carries over across all languages! I wanted to evoke a sense of a blossom coming to life over the course of his journey.

-hates battling because his sister will always be better at it than him, so he vastly prefers pokemon catching instead. (Galar's League-focus/prominence made him sickkkk. he was glad to move) -helped Jacq complete the Paldean, Kitakami and BB pokedex because of that. they're tight, the both of them. -his smile never reaches his eyes, early-game. -he is not naturally kind, nor does he see himself as the 'hero' of the story (that was always Juliana, not him), but he fakes being a main character to make people think he's just as good (this is also a byproduct of Galar's culture tbh) -that's why he seems like the more extroverted of the two, but really, he's just as quiet as her behind doors. -tbh even the fact that he has one beauty mark under his eye instead of two like his twin sis bothers him... blud thinks he'll never be enough! -Koraidon's trainer

-after meeting Kieran, Florian tried to be kind from a genuine want instead of to impress people. he wanted to be the 'hero of the story' that Kieran saw him as... and not because he needed to be out of his sister's shadow. Kieran made him want to try. -like the only way I see him winning during BB League wasn't because he was the main character who always wins, but because winning was the only way he could be friends with Kieran again. -his arc will conclude when he learns to be kind and do things out of selflessness :) which is why he takes a Tera Blast during the Indigo Disk's climax, the ultimate act of selflessness. help. sorry man it was for character development...

Juliana

-The actual main hero of the story. Really insanely strong in battles. like just straight up a beast -Juliana's names mean "youth", so she stays the same, forever a young battle prodigy Florian tries to match (but can't...). Also, youth to me can mean the future, which is why she's the Miraidon trainer! -Another reason why she's Miraidon trainer is because she can't express herself how she wants... she can't emote easily and speaks monotonously, like a robot. -Her arc would conclude when she learns that the people worth keeping in life are the ones that get her even when she doesn't feel "normal" :]]] true treasures. -big eater -read once that having beauty marks under your eyes means you'll have "trouble in love" and tried to scrub hers off... really envies Florian for having just one and thinks Flo's some kind of romance genius. goes to him for love advice one day and it freaks him out (he's having just a complicated time as any teen!!!)

-Heavily inspired by Pokemon Special's take on her. like look at her she's so cool.

i kinda can't believe it took me so long to ship coffy lol

[yourlegacysnotyourstosee]

Currently becoming a Spones shipper against my will

[bibuckaroo]

kinda afraid to step in this discourse, most of all because i didn’t even finish the show yet (but i just finished s2!!!) but i’ve seen a lot of this fandom behavior and fandoms’ behavior in general.

and like i see a lot of bucktommys complaining about the buddie fandom (including in the buddie tag) but i never actually see the buddie fandom doing anything that terrible, like what i saw the most was them stating they don’t like tommy and even the actor that plays him, but they stayed in their lane and didn’t harass anyone?? maybe i’m in a privileged part of the fandom.

also, saw even people who claim to be from the buddie fandom talking about how this behavior is ruining the experience for them?? and i’m like what behavior?? and this is literally how fandoms work!!! there’s always fights!!!

all i’m saying is if it’s bothering you so much, just block these people (i know i did) and if it’s something truly serious, report them!!!

however, if it’s taking the joy out of the experience for you, maybe you’re just not that into it anymore.

[shehungthemoon]

You know what? I might love bucktommy, but I am going to give myself a second to mourn buddie. It was a big chuck of my fandom experience, it's what got me into this show in the first place, and they've brought me so much joy over the years. So here's to buddie <3

[melandrops]

one of the most sad things about being a multishipper in the tma fandom is that so many writers will just cut martin out of the story altogether when they pair jon up with someone else (tim, gerry, elias, etc). i think it's because a lot of tma writers (me included) simply can't see martin as anything other than desperately in love with jon and it's so much easier to just write him out of the narrative entirely than to construct a way around the metaphorical wrench in the gears that it throws to have martin involved when you're writing for a pairing that isn't jonmartin.

and i understand that especially since most of us are amateurs but fuck if that isn't so achingly sad on a meta level. martin, almost a victim and avatar of the lonely, shunted to the side in almost everything, never felt valued or loved, gets written out of the story for the sake of convenience

"if hua cheng wasn't in the picture, i might be into fenglian..."

YOU STILL CAN BE!!! WHO CARES? if the dynamic intrigues you, LET IT!!!

[eddiegettingshot]

feel like i’ve been seeing a lot of people trying to justify themselves with like, carefully-articulated arguments about their personal fandom viewpoint or whatever… but like. you don’t need to do that for the audience who’s not listening anyway... it’s a tv show and these are not real humans. you’re allowed to want to see a story where the characters you like kiss and are in love. that’s literally it. you’re fine. let’s not waste our time trying to persuade anyone 😭

[sga-owns-my-soul]

Pls don’t take this the wrong way i actually love multishipping but I’m genuinely wondering if there’s anyone you don’t ship?

rodney and jennifer 😂 although i think if jennifer's character was written to be an actual character instead of The Hot Trophy For Rodney i probably would've liked the ship way more, but as it is they don't even seem to like each other???? also unless it's in the context of ot4 i can't do john/teyla idk why i don't know what it is (especially since john is such a slut and so easy to ship with anyone????) but it just feels very Wrong to me idk

all that being said tho all it takes is the right headcanon or fic/idea to get me obsessed with a ship so who knows maybe one day i'll ship mckeller and john/teyla!

[k-i-ssmyash]

I wanna go dancing.

Also getting ready with people is so much better than solo just fyi

[salthien]

once again lamenting the fact that this site isn't built for rapid fire out of context posts like twitter. I could type "quirr.el fandom bicycle" and that would be the entire tweet. here, I feel like I need to add context, and that's not as fun

[lanshappycorner]

This is the last time I will talk about this but this is how I feel having to admit I hate ships my mutuals like
