How do you feel about hankcon and/or simarkus

im guessing this is for the ask meme, anon?? if it isnt imma dummy, but even so, i don’t think there’s much harm in doing this anyway!! 

001 | send me a ship and I will tell you: hankcon

when I started shipping it if I did: tbh. i don’t know if i consider myself a shipper or not?? i enjoy a fair bit of hankcon content to be truthful, i have quite a few hankcon fics under my bookmarks and love a lot of the art i’ve seen of it! but i also primarily view them as a father/son duo, rather than a couple?? so i suppose i’m neutral to the ship in a sense. i don’t go out of my way looking for content, but i do certainly see the appeal, and enjoy the ship at times ^^

my thoughts: okay. so i know this ship is kinda taboo to a lot of people. and a lot of people might hate me for saying this, but! hankcon is a valid ship. there is nothing wrong with shipping hank and connor. there is nothing incestuous about shipping hank and connor. both are consenting adults. both are capable of making there own choices. and! there is quite a bit of in game content that teases the ship as well, even if cabbage himself seems to support the father/son dynamic for them both. personally, i have nothing against the ship, or the shippers. i see the appeal! hank and connor have one hell of a dynamic, and that push-pull/opposites attract thing they got going on makes em fun to explore as lovers. and, yknow, its a twink and a bear. like.. THE dynamic lmao. i definitely prefer them as father/son myself, but hankcon is definitely a valid ship!

What makes me happy about them: they’re precious soft perfect friends who deserve to be together whether its in a shipping sense, or a family sense! and knowing that concon is the wholeass reason that hank is ALIVE is seriously bittersweet.

What makes me sad about them: their own problems and mental health issues would probably cause them to feed off one another negatively. similarly, they have a co-dependence on one another that while is really sweet, can also turn into a toxic dynamic very quickly. 

things done in fanfic that annoys me: infantising/babyfying connor?? thats spelt wrong but whatever. i see a lot of this in fics in general, but it seems to happen quite a lot in hankcon/hank connor fic??? where people just make connor kinda too childish. i get that he’s very young, he’s naive and he’s got this sense of innocence to him but like. he’s got the mentality of an adult, he’s seen more shit than your average person. he is a babey and i agree that he needs guidance, but he doesn’t need like.. a full blown parent lmao. he’s not a kid. he’s an emotionally immature robot.

things I look for in fanfic: hurt/comfort. hank is a good caretaker in connor whump uwu 

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: rk1k for corn and hankrose for hank!!

My happily ever after for them: honestly just seeing them live together post game makes me happy sldkfjdsfkl

who is the big spoon/little spoon: concon is little spoon, obviously. sumo is the big spoon.

what is their favorite non-sexual activity: cuddling!

001 | send me a ship and I will tell you: simarkus

when I started shipping it if I did: i honestly don’t ship simarkus. again, it’s a valid ship, but i’m just not a fan. there’s not much appeal to me in all honesty!!

my thoughts: i get why people ship them! and i get that honestly it’s quite a cute ship, and simon and markus have a lot of cute moments together! but, i honestly find simon to be quite a boring character, and i just don’t enjoy seeing him with markus as much as i like connor with markus. it’s cute tho! a valid ship to have, and there’s very cute art of them!!

What makes me happy about them: if simon and markus got together that means both of them got a happy ending, and considering how hard it is to keep simon alive lmao it’s nice to see em both happy!

What makes me sad about them: tbh. simon’s love for markus seems kinda unrequited?? like. i can see the attraction from simon’s side, but i don’t think markus returns it :(( could lead to some spicy angst fics tho!!!

things done in fanfic that annoys me: MAKING NORTH A VILLAIN. so many simarkus fics do this. and i hate it. i genuinely hate it. you can have your ship without making north a bad person!! she could quite easily be a bro, or even a wingman!! use her character for good, not bad!!!

things I look for in fanfic: i don’t look at simarkus fics tbh heh. but if i did, i’d like to see domestic stuffs with them. just cute fluffy cuddling and shit lol

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: rk1k!!! and i think simon could be cute with josh! josh deserves love too!!

My happily ever after for them: just.. them being happy! and alive! and no-one is dead!!

who is the big spoon/little spoon: simon would easily be the little spoon lol. markus is an all the way big spoon unless he needs comforting uwu then he’s happy to let his partner look after him hehe

what is their favorite non-sexual activity: late night talks in high places!! i feel like markus would enjoy markus’s company when he’s just chilling up on a roof somewhere, even if they didn’t speak ahaha

[sinfulwonders]

If you're still doing rarepair requests, could you do KoreKichi (Kiyo x Ouma) for the ship meme thing, please?

Korekiyo x Kokichi (Oumaguji maybe):

We back at it, fellas.

Who asks the other on dates: Kokichi asks out Korekiyo more! Kokichi was also the first to ask Korekiyo, because he was interested in how strange and mysterious he was. Korekiyo only accepted as a learning opportunity, but the two found out they actually really enjoyed each other’s company. 

Who is the bigger cuddler: Kokichi is the bigger cuddler! Korekiyo, while interested in the idea of cuddling, hadn’t really had the opportunity to experience it before! So luckily he’s gotten to experience a lot of cuddling by being with Kokichi. (And he’s decided that it’s an enjoyable experience)

Who initiates holding hands more often: Kokichi also initiates hand holding more! Even though Korekiyo thinks humans are fascinating creatures, he tends to put himself in an observer role during interactions. (Tending to stand to the side and observe rather than partake in conversations.) Kokichi is good about taking Korekiyo’s hand and pulling him in and getting him to actually be part of the conversation!

Who remembers anniversaries: They both remember, they’re both very good with dates. Anniversaries are more important to Kiyo though, as he finds the tradition very beautiful.

Who is more possessive: These two can kind of both get possessive, but I think Kokichi is probably the more possessive of the two. He can get pretty clingy and attention-needy sometimes, but honestly Korekiyo just thinks it’s fascinating.

Who gets more jealous: Kokichi also tends to get more jealous, especially with how highly Korekiyo speaks of his sister and humanity in general. (We’ll say in this au that their relationship isn’t incestuous though, and that they’re just very close.) 

Who is more protective: They both can get pretty protective of each other. Kokichi is quick to defend anyone that calls Kiyo weird, because ‘all the best people are’. While Korekiyo gets quite defensive of Kokichi’s crazy antics if people start complaining about that. Basically, they love each other’s weirdness.

Who is more likely to cheat: I’d say Korekiyo, but only if the opportunity had amazing scholarly benefits.:P

Who initiates sexy times the most: Oh Korekiyo for sure. They’ve certainly got an active and... interesting(?) sex life. They’re both up for anything, so they’ve got an experimental sex life for sure. It gets wild. 

Who dislikes PDA the most: They’re both pretty much fine with PDA. It’s not unusual for them to get caught making out in public, and there are times when Kokichi can get real handsy with Kiyo. (Kiyo loves it)

Who kills the spider: Kiyo rigs up a whole convoluted system to kill the spider. Kokichi watches and exasperatingly says, “You could have just stepped on it!” 

Who asks the the other to marry them: Korekiyo does, as he wants to experience setting up and enacting a traditional proposal. Kokichi, aware of who Korekiyo is as a person, waits for him to ask.

Who buys the other flowers or gifts: Kokichi loves to bring Korekiyo weird, creepy gifts from whenever he takes trips with DICE. Kiyo loves and appreciates every one, and they have a display case at their house filled with all the freaky stuff Kokichi has brought home!

Who would bring up possibly having kids: I don’t know if either of them ever would, but the more likely of the two would be Korekiyo. 

Who is more nervous to meet the parents: Kokichi would be super inwardly nervous to meet Korekiyo’s sister, as he talks so highly of her. Korekiyo would be more intrigued than nervous to meet DICE.

Who sleeps on the couch when the other is angry: Probably Kokichi, as he’d probably need more time to process after an argument. He may just take a long walk and then stay at DICE headquarters for a night though. 

Who tries to make up first after arguments: So even though Korekiyo takes less time to process, these two both a difficult time making up after arguments. They both have a bad habit of letting things stew for a long time, but generally Kokichi is the first to try to reconcile.

Who tells the other they love them more often: Kokichi says it more! It’s really not said all that often between the two, because once they know they know. Korekiyo really doesn’t express romantic affection with words all that often, so he tends to say it only on special occasions. (Which is fine for Kokichi, because actions speak louder than words, anyway.)

Can you explain to us non-FF players what was so awful about Fates?

FE.  Very different trainwrecks.

And...probably?  I had a TON of posts about the problems in the game, but I can try to do an abridged version here.  Or at least, I’ll make an attempt.

Starting with the obvious, they took one game and split it into three, then charged us for three separate games.  It was complete horseshit from second 1.

Face-rubbing minigame.  You know Pokemon Amie?  Imagine doing that with humans.  That’s the waifu simulator they put in this game.

The creators of the game went on record early on saying that, yeah, Awakening saved the entire franchise from death with its simple but impactful storyline, but it was kinda too simple so we’re gonna make it better.  They then proceeded to make the shittiest plot I’ve ever been involved with, filled with nothing but contrivances to make anything make sense.

Characters sucked.  There are like 5 good ones, and at least three are debatable depending on who you ask.  The problem with infinite supports is that no character ever changes, so whenever one character would support, say, Oboro (the worst example of this), they’d reach A rank and she’d move on from her blatant racism, only to be right back to racist central for the next character’s C-support.  As such, no one ever grew as a character, and no one was particularly compelling, especially because both sides in the war were idiots.

Speaking of idiots, the reason for the war?  Invisible soldiers from an ancient dragon god attacked people on both sides of the border.  Rather than investigate, they both immediately accused the other and went to war.  The reason no one pointed out the soldiers or dragon god?  If you talked about them, you’d be magically transported to the dragon god’s kingdom and mind controlled into working for him!  Yeah, pure contrivance, because otherwise your entire plot would be resolved in literally two seconds as someone mentioned what was going on.

THE BABY REALM.  So, in Awakening, you could get married and have kids.  They wanted to do that mechanic again.  But Awakening had time travel, so it made sense.  Here?  Instead, they had a baby, and you throw them into an inter-dimensional rift, where they will immediately be spit out at combat-ready age.  I think like two of the kids briefly mention being sad their parents weren’t around.  Otherwise, somehow no abandonment issues at all.  Leo is a fucking asshole, though.  Forrest deserved better.

Speaking of the kids, fuck the kids.  Again, there’s like 5 that were good, and at least 3 are debateable.  But I think we can all agree that Kanna is a horrible little gremlin we should’ve kept locked away in another dimension.  FUCK YOU, YOU’LL NEVER BE MORGAN

On the topic of shipping, the main ship?  Corrin and Azura?  Yeah, you’re cousins.  So after all the debate about the main families being incest, but they totally aren’t because you’re adopted and not related to either of them, the main couple of the game that I think the game itself actively pushes, is incestuous.  Fucking great job, team.

I could bitch about the difference in female costume design between this game and the rest of the series all goddamned day so let’s just say “Camilla is just there for fanservice” and call it a day.

The final boss is literally the stone mask from JoJo and yet the game is somehow still lame.

Speaking of the final boss.  That dragon god?  We never learn his motivation.  Or rather, we do, but only in the DLC.  So after paying over $80 for this shit game they sold to you three times?  You have to pay even more to get the DLC that fucking explains anything.

Weapons came with penalties now.  So strong weapons had severe drawbacks that made them less useful, and instead forging was the way to go.  How do you forge?  By buying like 50 copies of the same weapon, and farming endlessly for arbitrary resources through other players’ My Castles (I’ll bitch about that in a minute), then spending a shitload of gold in the forge to give it slightly better stats.  Hope you like farming!

Christ, the My Castle thing...  You know what Fire Emblem really needed?  Instead of steady progression through a story, it needed to grind to a fucking halt as you farmed out all your arbitrary resources that are now required, and get all your skills through this method alone.  Most of your game won’t even be the main story, it’ll be My Castle, the fucking shitshow nightmare they added into this series for no goddamned reason.

“We finally put in gay characters!” the series said, giving you version exclusive options of (1) the reincarnation of a stalker who abused her daughter mentally and physically, or (2) a gay man whose only defined personality traits are “sadistic” and “makes a lot of uncomfortable sex jokes.”  Fucking top-tier representation.  Shame you didn’t pick sensible options, like...I dunno, Soleil?  The obvious bi girl?  But no, Tharja 2.0, that’s fine.

But on top of that?  On top of all that?  Pick your poison from the following:

The english translation was so unbelievably bad, that most characters spoke in decades-old memes, and entire support conversations were outright removed for funny ninja moments like no spoken dialogue because ninjas don’t talk.  But at least they removed the incredibly creepy face-rubbing minigame that you just know someone was jerking it to.

OR you keep the Japanese version, where one support conversation is literally your main character drugging a girl who thinks other girls are cute, without her consent, to make her see men as other women and vice versa, basically so you can fuck and marry her, in what’s basically a point-for-point re-enactment of conversion therapy.  And that’s just one of the incredibly horrific things the Japanese version had in it.  There was an entire SITE listing the problems people had with how it portrayed things.

And that’s just what I remember off the top of my head.  I know for a fact there’s more.  But imagine going from “Oh man, a new entry into this, my favorite series” to getting all of this information, bit by bit, over months, and trying to convince yourself that it’ll be okay and you should still get it.  Then you get it, and it’s somehow WORSE.  That’s what the experience of Fates was like.  Constant horror and disappointment, followed by an attempt to compromise that backfired spectacularly and resulted in, bar none, the worst game I’ve ever played, with absolutely nothing gained.  I am a lesser person for having played Fates.

top 10 asoiaf relationships/dynamics?

never thought about it actually but i will now! i don’t have any ships besides daensa and they haven’t met in canon and i usually enjoy characters individually but let’s give it a shot.

1. sansa & lady, however short-lived that relationship was. “Lady,” he said, tasting the name. He had never paid much attention to the names the children had picked, but looking at her now, he knew that Sansa had chosen well. She was the smallest of the litter, the prettiest, the most gentle and trusting. She looked at him with bright golden eyes, and he ruffled her thick grey fur.”it is implied that all the stark children are wargs, and they have a special bond to their wolves. it’s especially obvious in bran and jon’s case because they’re the only povs with their wolves alive and nearby, but the strong bond between robb and grey wind and rickon and shaggydog suggests that, as well as the wolf dreams arya has while being half a world away from nymeria. sansa, though. her wolf, a literal part of her soul, was murdered. and that in what, the 4th or 5th chapter? sansa’s suffering started THAT early. i think that because lady was killed sansa’s abilities as a warg died with her, which singles her out from her own family. i’ve always found lady’s death the saddest in the whole story.

2. sansa & arya because i’m basic like this. grrm said that he created sansa specifically to be arya’s foil and them being the opposite of each other is brought up in the narrative a good couple of time, and who am i to say that it doesn’t work. arya is shown to be extremely extroverted, empathetic and brass, while sansa falls on the low empathy side and is rather introverted and introspective in her povs, besides her impeccable manners. when i read arya’s povs, i read about her story and surrounding. when i read sansa’s povs, i read about sansa. “when the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies, but the pack survives”, ned tells arya, who is then obsessed with the idea of finding her “pack”, while sansa is left to tend to herself after ned’s decapitation, being resilient as a lone wolf and surviving. the times they think about each other in their povs are truly touching as well, “she wanted king’s landing to drown, but sansa was there”, “she dreamed that she had a daughter that looked a little like arya”, “a thousand years ago, she had known a girl who loved lemon cakes”. they sometimes remember each other with such melancholy.

3. sansa & cersei, “you are stronger than you seem. i expect you’ll survive a little humiliation. i did”“Once she had loved Prince Joffrey with all her heart, and admired and trusted her his mother, the queen. They had repaid that love and trust with her father’s head. Sansa would never make that mistake again.”“I ought to have shown her to the black cells as the daughter of a traitor, but instead I made her part of mine own household. She shared my hearth and hall, played with my own children. I fed her, dressed her, tried to make her a little less ignorant about the world, and how did she repay me for my kindness? She helped murder my son.”  i think cersei resents sansa from the very beginning even though she has made good use of her. she’s genuinely disgusted by her innocence and naivete, and i think she both sees her own younger self in her, which she hates, and competition - the book IS written by a man after all, and they always think that all women are at odds with each other. first of all she resents her based on the prophecy that has been consuming cersei since she was sansa’s age, and she hates sansa for being “younger and more beautiful” and the potential “to tear everything she holds dear and take her place”. then another reason is joffrey. cersei is bound to hate any prospective betrothal to her children, because she’s a narcissist and she thinks of her children as continuation of herself - and narcissists don’t take well at anyone trying to take away their narcissistic supply. then she’s also a narcissistic parent (it’s another thing from narcissism per se), and joffrey is her favorite child, so it’s natural that she would hate his bride-to-be. we don’t have any introspection into cersei’s mind when sansa was still betrothed to joffrey, but i wager she held the same distaste towards her that she holds against margaery in her actual povs.

sansa on the other hand, initially of course, loves cersei, adores cersei and is desperate for her approval and her company she considers the highest honor. of course later she grows a healthy fear and disgust towards cersei but their interactions, scarce as they are, are always a delight to read. i find it funny that sansa has been deeply traumatized by cersei’s actions, while cersei thinks that she’s done sansa nothing but good. the PERSPECTIVE of all of that is just hilarious.

4. cersei & margaery, i think it’s supposed to mirror the previous one but margaery is made of an ENTIRELY different cloth than sansa. unlike sansa she was clearly prepared to come into the nest of snakes that is king’s landing and was plainly trained for it, becoming a huge snake herself. margaery is fake through and through, reason for which i love her, and, unlike sansa, who doesn’t have any protection at court and is a war prisoner, is surrounded by her people so cersei can’t do her any harm. besides she’s the actual threat that cersei thinks as “younger and more beautiful” tho i think margaery will not have a kind fate. in the chapter where she’s imprisoned and cersei comes to visit her, margaery shows her true colors for the first and only time: “will you make me call my gaolers and have you dragged away, you vile, scheming, evil bitch?”.

cersei and margaery are both intelligent and cunning but in different ways and they can’t stand each other and it’s somehow delightful to follow.

5. cersei & jaime, it was actually the reason i started watching the show in 2013 and swiftly changed to the books, saw a meme on 9gag that was like “can have any woman in seven kingdoms - fucks his own sister” over a pic of jaime and i got curious. i generally find twincest boring and tasteless but it never fails to intrigue me. a couple of years ago there was a huge ass post with thousands of notes that highlighted some moments from the books and the op was like “besides the incestuous side, cersei and jaime are the healthiest romantic relationship in the story” and i laughed out LOUD because BOY was that person wrong. their relationship is of consuming each other, hating each other,hurting each other, loving each other, lying to each other, idolizing each other, demonizing each other. it’s as unhealthy and toxic as it can get.

6. tywin & all his children, it’s hilarious how he managed to fuck up all of his kids in entirely different ways. all three of them idolize him and demonize him simultaneously, and none of them he has ever loved, using them, lying to them, dismissing their existence as it goes. he’s obsessed with the reputation of his house but he’s utterly ruthless and neglectful towards his family, which cracks me up.

7. brienne and podrick, they’re both awkward yet underestimated teenagers who have no idea what to do with themselves. the sense of camaraderie and bonding they share based on this is funny. pod is the only man brienne has shown to trust throughout her journey, and was worried for him when they got abducted.

8. ramsay and theon, theon deserved all that came upon him and imo ramsay was merciful on him, if i was him i’d skin theon’s face and take out an eye just for sport.

9. jon connington and rhaegar, i have a soft spot for a character remaining faithful to their dead lover years and years later. everything connington does he does out of love for rhaegar, and i can respect that. actually this is the only aspect for the other jon for me as well, the way he thinks about ygritte now and then is somehow touching.

10. varys and littlefinger, i’m sure varys can read littlefinger for shit, and while littlefinger does have his info on varys i’m sure it doesn’t cover even a quarter. who is varys? where do his loyalties lie? what are his goals? with littlefinger every question has an answer, varys though… but the two of them, plus doran martell, are the main players in the game so it’s interesting how things go under the covers.

also dany & missandei! it’s really sweet
