Flavors Of A Ship: Luigi Addition

ONCE AGAIN, I COME BACK TO POST ABOUT BOWUIGI (and other ships, as a treat)!

While I’m not as well versed in the world of Fandoms as ColeyDoesThings, I have been here long enough to have an inkling on how ships can be categorized.

This brings me to ships in the Super Mario fandom- specifically with Luigi!

I’m not sure about you, but the Green Bean seems to be a jack-of-all-trades in shipability thanks to the 7+ characters that I’ve seen him shipped with- and that is through my home feed on here!

And looking at AO3? I am given a fairly good idea of the current ship popularities that I intend to figure out as I stroll through the site.

For instance, Bowser, Daisy, and Peasley are currently the top three ships according to the existing tags- and in that exact order.

In a way, it also makes the most sense that the first two are prolific given the similar potential/established chemistry they have with Luigi! And Peasley? Who has elicited very gushy responses from the Green Bean in the few interactions they had in a single game?

I have little to wonder, really, to see these three as the Addictively Sweet Trio(TM).

On a more interesting note, King Boo runs fourth place in the fic count, and adds a spicy take of who is canonically Luigi’s mortal enemy.

Princess Peach is fifth place, and someone who I don’t usually picture with Luigi if only because I picture a more complex chemistry with Mario and her.

After her is the cavalcade of rare-pairs and cr*ck-pais that include Dimentio, Waluigi, Morty, and Donkey Kong. Depending on personal taste, I can see these ships easily dipping into the bitter, the salty, and the sour takes of what kind of relationship can come about with them just as much as the sweeter possibilities.

Regardless of who is your favorite ship, it stands to show that Luigi himself seems to be very compatible with many Types of characters, and I honestly have no idea how to process that. Like- jeeze- half of them are royalty and I bet someone will add more in due time…

Until I puzzle it out, this post will definitely be on the back burner for a continuation via reblog.

Until then, so ya all later!!

Yo, where are all the Bowsario shippers on here because I genuinely want to know if you (or anyone else) would be open to shipping Luigi with Donkey Kong?

[beyondtheglowingstars]

Wierd couple request for, luigixDK? (I love it even though I hardly see anything of them)

Thanks for your request anon! I almost forgot to reply to explain something, I hope you see this answer soon.

So here's the thing, I'm assuming that by Luigi x DK you mean their movie versions for obvious reasons. I have no problems with the ship, the issue lies in me not feeling yet a good grasp on their movie portrayal (this mostly applies to DK, oof he's such a contrast to what I'm used to), so I was wondering if you'd be willing to accept a delivery with their game personalities instead.

OMG YEEEEESSSSS

SAVED!!!

THANK YOU

Have another favorite obscure/underrated official render, this time from Double Dash!

Luigi: I'm cold Bowser: Here, take my jacket Mario: I'm cold too DK: Well damn Mario, I can't control the weather

[iamonlypartlymajestic]

I went into the Super Mario Bros movie already shipping Bowser x Luigi…tell me why I left the theatre shipping Donkey Kong x Mario too?! 😅 (what would their ship name be anyway?) 👀

[angelxd-3303]

They're so precious to meeee!!

[dkfan07142]

Now I've seen a lot of people talk about bowuigi and mariokong, and mareach, and more. But I got another ship to add. Sure they interact like never, but just look at how dk looks at luigi, and just imagine their dynamic it'd be so dumb and sweet.....anyone got any names for this ship?

Bridal carry with Donkuigi

The Jungle Kingdom was built for two things: primates, and ridiculously dangerous go-karts.

Given the nature of the roads, Luigi was unsure about stepping foot into any vehicle despite Mario's invitation. "If you hold on tight enough, it's not that bad." There was hesitancy in his voice, and no argument when Luigi turned him down, insisting he preferred to travel to the palace on foot. "Go ahead. The king will be looking for you and Peach more than he'll be looking for me." Luigi shrugged and buried his hands in his pockets, "Besides, I want to take in the sights a little! Y'know?"

Luigi didn't regret his decision when the kart first sped off, nearly throwing Mario right out of the sidecar at the first hairpin turn. He did, however, come to rethink his position when he proceeded to try and travel kartless.

For all the trouble his knees gave him, Luigi considered himself quite athletic, but all his skill served him little in a cityscape built for apes who leapt and swung circles around him, a few struggling to hold back giggles as Luigi clumsily shuffled along narrow piers, looping vines, and mossy tree branches.

The final stretch toward the cliffside palace was the worst. The only entrances that weren't built for karts were only accessible through dangling green vines, hanging over a sheer drop into roaring waterfalls.

Luigi, having underestimated his own exhaustion, got stuck halfway to the top, too tired to move up and too anxious to slide down, when he heard a familiar voice call out to him: "Enjoying the view?"

"Donkey Kong!" Luigi started. He almost lost his grip as he turned to the source of the voice, sliding a few inches down the vine and nearly giving himself a heart attack. The great gorilla prince was swinging lazily back and forth on a neighboring vine by one arm, looking as at-ease as someone strolling down a sidewalk toward their mailbox. "Stick with DK," the royal said with a smirk, "It's shorter." "DK," Luigi corrected himself. He tightened his whole body around the vine, his palms began to sweat though his gloves, and tried to sound less desperate than he felt. "Hey! Hi. Um... look, I hate to bother you, but could you–"

"You need a push?" Donkey Kong's smug grin turned mischievous as he swung closer, making a motion like he was going to shove Luigi like a kid on a tire swing. "No!" Luigi squeaked. He braced himself and squeezed his eyes shut. "No no, please!" "Oh, I'm just kidding!" Amidst the sound of Donkey Kong's laughter, Luigi felt himself scooped up and cradled in a burly arm nearly as large as he was. The Plumber's hands automatically released the vine when he found himself carried swiftly upward, pressed firmly into the gorillas large chest.

In a fog of relief combined with a keen sense of how unusual his situation was, Luigi couldn't help but notice a few things: One, he felt unusually safe given the circumstances. DK's hold was firm, but not too tight, almost giving him the sense of laying in a warm hammock. Second, his fur was surprisingly soft, akin to a bearskin rug, only slightly denser and softer.

Third... DK smelled surprisingly good, like a recently-used woodshop and citrus fruit peels. Luigi dared not mention any of his observations aloud, and Donkey Kong thought it was merely nerves that made him so hesitant to dismount from his arms when they were safe within the palace.

"Loosen your grip, L, you're okay."

"...L?" Luigi asked, carefully setting his feet down on the carved stone floor.

"Yeah! DK..." Donkey Kong pointed to the letters on his own tie, then reached over and flicked the L on Luigi's cap hard enough to twist it around so it sat backward's on the plumber's head. "...and L."

Luigi fixed his hat, looking more confused than annoyed as the gorilla raced ahead of him on all fours, and waved for him to follow. "C'mon!" DK called over his shoulder. "I'll show you around!"

Bonus panel:

Did I get ya in the first half? I hope I did.

Btw sorry for some movie inaccuracies. I looked at bowser's throne and said " I ain't drawing ALL of that". Also, it's like my second time making a comic so the fonts are all over the place. Despite all that, I hope u enjoyed :)

[annachronisme]

Headcanon: Mario and Luigi like rough house but it's the kind were you think they're genuinely fighting. I just know that given the chance, Mario and Luigi just roughhouse super hard, they're pulling WWE move on each other This thought came in the context on the handfull of soulmate fic I've found that are etched into my brain and this image of Mario and Luigi mockfighting and pulling the most batshit insane move while Bowser and DK stand on sideline in fear.
