#long live the crackships

"Why would you ship _____?"

WHY.TF.NOT?!?!?!

Honestly, the acotar fandom confuses me so much cause I honestly believe more than half of these people haven't been in fandom ever before. Shipping has nothing to do with canon and it doesn't have to make sense to YOU. Let people ship tamlain, let them ship gwyn with tarquin WHAT'S YOUR ISSUE? How does it affect you?! Like ok you can say that you don't like it etc but is it EVER that serious?! No

Shipping is the fandom equivalent of making your dolls kiss. DON'T TELL OTHER PEOPLE WHAT TO DO WITH FICTIONAL CHARACTERS!

Look at the Harry Potter fandom. Draco was a little b*tch to Hermione in canon and look at that, they're super popular and one of the biggest fanfics EVER POSTED ONLINE is based on this ship that doesn't make sense in canon for some. AND THAT'S OK

Block the tags, don't interact and ffs don't ban people for creating something that YOU don't like.

Anyways, Tamberon SUPERMACY

[sniperct]

KITTY SIGHTING

Also lets see, we've got Bobby, Piotr, Sooraya, Exodus, Ilyanna, Alex, and Emma, with fucking Wanda and Pietro offworld what the fuck

Also I can't read Angel's status but it looks like he's deceased and considering the end credits scene...

Dust is the biggest surprise here IMO but she was always one of my favorite of the New X-men and in hindsight maybe not super surprising...

Wer hätte denn damit rechnen können, dass Limon vor Nolin ihr erstes „ich liebe dich“ bekommen? 😅

[undergoing-mitosis]

describe to me your favourite ship as badly as possible.

i will then try to guess, based on my absolutely shoddy very limited knowledge of fandoms and popular ships. or anyone else can reblog and guess too

let's confuse everyone who doesn't go here!!

Can I hear your marliver headcannons 👀

SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO GET TO THIS HJFJGS. I will get to the kase ones soon I hope….. here’s my silly marlivers [cups them in my hands]

My most frequent sexuality hcs for them are demiromantic graysexual Oliver + queer aceflux Marcus

Oliver fell for Marcus’ voice first (again. this is an agenda.)

Marcus absolutely still uses it against him

Marcus loves Oliver’s eyes, hc obtained through osmosis, ty 🛐

Both Marcus and Oliver had complicated feelings when they start liking the other.

Oliver was still trying to figure out what his orientation even was, since he’d never liked many people or liked them very quickly. After he’d gotten to know Marcus well and his feelings started being more serious, he sometimes felt confused to the point of being almost overwhelmed when near Marcus.

Marcus had his reservations because he’d invalidated himself so much he didn’t know if he was even capable of showing Oliver the love he deserved. He worried that being an android meant he couldn’t be with Oliver, either because he felt it would make Oliver reject him or because he thought it meant he shouldn’t feel the way that he does.

They’re each other’s first kiss <3

Oliver’s pining songs are Everytime We Touch by Cascada and Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen and I’m so not sorry for that. He puts that shit on loop and just stares at the ceiling for three hours

The team sometimes forgets that Oliver has super strength until they see him constantly picking up his extremely heavy android boyfriend like a sack of potatoes

Almost always have a point of contact going on. Hand around the waist, arm over the shoulder, brushing elbows, etc. Marcus does a lot of it by sneaking up behind Oliver, he thinks it’s funny cause Oliver is so skittish (Oliver lets him off the hook bc he gets consolation kisses 🫶)

Occasionally Oliver says stuff under his breath that he knows only Marcus will hear (sometimes it’s whatever Oliver thinks will make him look all embarrassed, cause he thinks it’s cute and funny)

Neither Marcus nor Oliver know what to do about being complimented at first. They didn’t often hear that kind of thing directed towards them, so when one of them compliments the other they get very shy and quiet about it

Oliver especially likes doing it because Marcus is usually very collected and level-headed around Oliver and complimenting him is one of the few things that breaks that

Secretly though, Marcus was a big disgusting sap when pining over Oliver. Sighing dreamily, kicking his legs, the works. Leo had to endure it and he absolutely could not STAND it </3

THERE’s probably more but this is my silly list 4 now. ough. marliver my beloved 💕💖💕💖💖💓💘

So, we know that there was absolutely nothing romantic about the Elrond/Galadriel kiss. But the Orcs don't. For them, that would have been akin to watching two famous celebrities kiss in public. No matter what universe it is, almost every creature has some inclination towards drama and gossip. Orcs are no exception.

The news of Elrond and Galadriel's kiss will spread like wildfire between the Orc legions and the surviving Orcs will take the gossip back home. Soon, all of them will discover the joys of not only shipping but the most tempting kind of shipping ever: RPF.

Rumours will birth theories. Theories will birth variations of the same story. It won't be long before 'Elrondriel' will become a rage among all Uruk. All of their forums will be filled with discussions about Elrond and Galadriel. Some devoted stalkers will find out all information that there is about the two of them. At first, they'll be angry to find out that Galadriel is married but later celebrate upon finding out that Galadriel's husband is dead. Some Orcs will decide that even if Celeborn is not dead, they will find him and kill him to clear the path for Elrond.

It won't stop at mere gossip for they will weave fanfics about Elrondriel. From the fluffiest fluff to the dirtiest smut, there will be all kinds of Elrondriel fics floating around Mordor. Fanarts will be commissioned and, of course, many will be NSFW. Every month there will be a week dedicated especially to Elrondriel.

Of course, like every fandom, things won't always be smooth for this one. Nasty fanwars would often breakout between Elrond solos and Galadriel solos. They would accuse each other of caring for only one half of the ship and not the other. Galadriel solos will accuse Elrond for not taking a stand for his love and murdering Celeborn at the first chance. Elrond solos will accuse Galadriel of not murdering him herself to elope with Elrond.

Little do these Elrondriels know that their days of peace are short lived. For they are about to meet that one inevitable foe who is the bane of every shipper's existence. An Anti. It is not just any anti. It is The Anti. One Anti To Rule Them All.

When Sauron takes over and hears rumours of this ship, he would brush it aside at first without knowing what it is about, confident that soon this crackship with be forgotten when he introduces the ultimate ship with its rich lore to them: Saurondriel. But the Orcs would refuse to back down and accept any other ship but Elrondriel. One day, some fanfics would make their way to Sauron's hands and he would be incensed upon reading them.

Tyrant that he is, Sauron would order all Elrondriel fanfics and fanart to be burnt and deleted from existence. Anyone in Mordor who is caught writing or drawing or even uttering Elrond and Galadriel's names in the same sentence would be made to write ten Saurondriel one shots and tortured. If Sauron likes their fics and they are without any grammatical errors then he might spare their lives. Let no one say the Lord Of Mordor isn't a benevolent ruler.

But Sauron's censorship policy wouldn't be able to destroy the spirit of Elrondriel that burns within the Orcs' hearts. Fanfics would be written in secret. Fanarts would be made but hidden from Sauron's or the Nazgûls' sights. Orcs would tell their children stories of Elrondriel.

Then, after Sauron gets defeated in the Battle Of The Last Alliance, Elrondriel shall witness a renaissance. Smut will overflow. Fix-its fics will pile up. Edits will be made. Until.....the Return of the Anti.

I know that, realistically, Astarion doesn't necessarily totally fill Roisia's quota for life partner, but their chemistry is SO good. Like, I can't imagine her with anyone else, tbh.

Aww that's so sweet! It always warms my heart when people care enough to have a preference with who my characters are romantically tied to, whether it's canon or crackship. Have a sweet moment between them as a treat. uwu

I also wanna say that I know Roisia puts a lot of stock in her List, but that doesn't mean you have to. I am not a therapist, so I do not know what an actual therapist might say, but I could see a fantasy Baldurian therapist saying something to Roisia along the lines of: "this list is a wonderful thing, but it is not the be-all-end-all to a life well lived and, in this case, it might have served its purpose to help you exert control over your life after experiencing a situation [romantic rejection] and a bodily reaction [heartbreak] that made you feel out of control".

If Roisia was more introspective, she might realise that she doesn't truly need the List and that the List might instead be holding her back from developing meaningful connections with people who do not perfectly meet her criteria. Because the reality is that Roisia may never meet someone who is perfect on paper or, even if she were to find her perfect person on paper, she may discover that what sounds good on paper doesn't necessarily translate into a desirable long-term romantic partner. All that is to say that it may be a good thing that Astarion doesn't fulfil Roisia's quota for a life partner AND that you still perceive them to have good chemistry together regardless.

Gay crackships >>>> the motherfucking shipwar

Long Live Azris, can I get an amen?🙏

[lucky-luffy]

I did the One Piece shipping showcase! Additional explanations and thoughts below:

First ship - Zoro/Luffy (OPLA) I started shipping about three episodes into the live action and it just grew and grew. Their dynamic in OPLA was great and still really special to me! Ship I didn't like at first - Sanji/Nami I'm still often surprised by how cute I find them at times, though I'm not sure I would say I officially "ship" them. Still the only thing I could really think of to put here. Ship I don't like anymore - Luffy/Koby Cute Koby/Lu fan art was one of the things that made me want to try OPLA to begin with but the "ship" didn't last long for me as it was quickly replaced by Zoro/Luffy. I still think Koby and Luffy are cute together, though. Popular ship I don't like - Zoro/Sanji I've just never been into this dynamic. Have seen some great fan art though. Favorite rarepair - Vivi/Nami I think NamiVivi counts as a rarepair? They're super cute!! Ship I don't like - Luffy/Nami Just like with ZS, they aren't for me. Ship I want to be canon the most - Sanji/Pudding Technically I don't want any ships to be canon, or if I did I would say a slash ship like ZoLu, but I wanted to put one that actually stands a chance, and this was all I could come up with. I did think their story in WCI was surprisingly sweet, but they both need to do a bit more growing before they can be good together.

Favorite crackship - Sanji/Luffy If this even counts as one? Tbh I really am not a crackship person, I don't ship any characters who haven't at least met and shared something a little special. Current OTP - Zoro/Luffy You know it's ZoLu baby!!!!

hiii! loving your modern au!! do you have more info about brody <3, marlon and like the rest of the ericson kidss?

Thank you for your interest and sorry it took so long for me to respond to this ask! ^^

The main Ericson's group from season 4 is split across high schoolers and young kids in my au and they live in separate areas of the school. Characters that go to the Ericson's high school are exactly the same age and in the same grade even if they're a bit younger/older in canon while characters that are younger than high school age are their canon ages.

Everyone is mostly the same though, like I've mentioned before, their roles within this au are slightly different. Marlon and Brody are the President and Vice-President of their grade respectively and as juniors (yes they're in 11th grade) they're given a lot of responsibility considering they'll be graduating next year. Also they're in a not so healthy relationship...

They share most of their classes, and Marlon definitely has anger issues that are exasperated by Brody's anxiety troubles. Here's the two of them with some unnamed students during the gym class they share ^^

It's difficult to divulge all the information regarding every character without turning this into an incomprehensible block of text so I'll be brief with other characters:

Louis and Violet are mostly the same, Louis is Marlon's childhood friend and Violet is pretty closed off and in an also not so healthy relationship with Minnie.

Minnie and Sophie are both on the school's baseball team, Minnie is similar to herself in game personality wise. She can be pretty rude and is very prone to siding with authority figures (teachers in this case) compared to those close to her. Sophie is much brighter and values the independence of students over the authority of teachers. Also Sophie and Mitch have something going on (fueled by my silly crackship in middle school haha.)

Mitch is literally the exact same lol. So are Aasim and Ruby, Aasim is the same as he is in game but he puts up a front around teachers as he's grown attached to his fellow students and doesn't particularly want to go home, since in game he's canonically basically been rehabilitated by the time of the apocalypses start. And yes, he's still pining after Ruby in my au. Omar is also virtually the same as well, he volunteers a lot to help the cafeteria ladies and gentlemen with lunch and dinner.

Tenn and Willy live in a separate section of the school for middle/elementary school aged kids and have their own teenager that they get to see once a week(Minnie/Sophie and Mitch respectively), kinda like the big brother program if you've heard of it. Though Sophie and Mitch specifically are very adept at sneaking around and seeing them near daily.

Here's a little relationship chart with all the kids ^^ Some relationships are a bit one-sided and some are multifaceted as well! For example most of the friends/hate arrows are meant to show annoyance/resentment in the friendship.

Also AJ lives in this section of the school, unbeknownst to Clem for now. It doubles as a living space/common education for kids taken by CPS.

Finally all the teenagers mentioned are in a big friend group and since they're friends with their grades president and vice-president they're able to take advantage of certain aspects of the school like sneaking out late at night without much punishment. They like to hang out around the river near the fishing cabin and in the forest, but Marlon doesn't let them go outside his arbitrary safe zone cause he can't really make up an excuse for them to be out past there and the thought of getting into trouble with the adults terrifies him. Though they do take the train into the closest town and hangout on weekends!

Ahh movie night :')

[lemonisnthere]

*does a little jig because it's canon* [also johnny dreaming about ryan o_0 I am looking-]

I've just been referring to the ship as Snuster Morp because it sounds crackheaded and I'm no fan of false advertising. So that would be my vote <3

Heh. Funny dream...!

The first four seconds were kinda serious before it started going downhill lmfao. God, it went downhill so fast with basically zero prompting-

...

So uh, I got a lovely little idea from this post made by the creature known as @whack-patty- and I've seen other people in this small community drawing some Sneep Snorp, so I thought- why not give it a go? What could possibly go wrong??

A lot, apparently.

I don't use an actual drawing program, I use Kleki. And when it closes or crashes, if you didn't decide to save your progress on your measly one file of browser storage- it's pretty much gone. The site decided to shut down on me- twice- destroying my progress on a couple of frames. It was like the universe itself wanted me to not make this. So uh... you're welcome for powering through?

[also rq, this is a crackship, definitely, I think. I think maybe definitely. Get back to me on that one later- like a lot later- but get back to me]

[zvtara-was-never-canon]

What do you think of the idea that Zuko and Katara fits better narratively

https://www.tumblr.com/longing-for-rain/762700356572545024/how-zutara-enhances-the-story-and-zuko-and?source=share

"The characters that are fundamentally incompatible, never had feelings for each other, rarely thought of each other, and weren't really part of each other's lives at all until the last second suddenly being forced together, instead of ending up with the people they canonically love and are happy with, fits the narrative better because fire/water, red/blue, 'feminism', 'female gaze' VS 'male gaze', Fire Nation Not That Bad, Water Tribe Not That Good, Good Girl X Bad Boy is inherently good, (insert another generic zutara argument here)"

No, the crackship that most zutarians are only attached to because Zuko was their first fictional bad boy crush would not do shit to enhance the story. If anything, it'd be a deep betrayal of said story and the characters arc, as it would be replacing coherent storytelling with cheap fanservice.
