ship tag

The way i got tagged in this two weeks ago by @bathroombreaks and @inyoursheets​ (and someone else but i dont remember who) and i’m just now doing it

1. First ship - Ichigo x Ryou (Tokyo Mew Mew)

not to expose myself as a weeb (i already exposed myself as an emo kid so its not like i have cool points to lose), but this ship is literally how i discovered the internet. i found youtube, fanfiction dot net, deviantart, quizzilla, etc all because i typed “ichigo and ryou from tokyo mew mew” into google dot com and hit search when i was 11

2. First otp - Sasuke x Sakura (Naruto)

okay look... when i was in middle school i was CONVINCED they would end up together and i was right (but at what cost?) my first fic was a sasusaku high school au (no i will not link it)

3. Favourite current ship - Brio (Good Girls)

hop in the clown car baby!

4. Shipped from the first minute - Captain Swan (OUAT)

i learned how to gif just for their first kiss - wish this show had been better bc they really went off with Captain Swan (invented true love gotta say it)

5. Wish they had been endgame - Britta x Jeff (Community)

This is the superior ship: terrible people being terrible together? yes please. If you like Jeff x Annie, you have bad taste.

6. Wish they had been canon - Jess and Jules (Bend It Like Beckham)

they were fighting over that ugly ass man why??? just be lesbians ladies!

7. Ship everyone else hates - Olivia x Jake (Scandal)

i don’t think people necessarily hate this ship BUT i do know olivia x fitz is way more popular but heres the thing: i hate fitz. olivia deserves BETTER than that trash man. and she had unbelievable chemistry with jake. they should have been together and im right about this. 

8. Don’t even watch the show but still ship - Alice x FP (Riverdale)

I love hot old people drama

9. Wish they had a different storyline - Matthew x Mary (Downton Abby)

i have never been hurt the way Downton Abbey hurt me

10. Actually endgame - Olivia x Peter (Fringe)

licherally soul mates

Blog Summary Tag Game

Find your fandom kru and help them find you. Answer the following and include the tag #the100blog in your answer. Tag some blogs you follow.

@johnmurphysreddit came up with this idea and @thelittlefanpire tagged me! I think this is a great idea!

1. What are your primary topics?

Within The 100: Bellarke, the delinquents generally, and the Sky People even more generally; I mostly focus on the first three seasons. Bellarke is my main ship but I like other relationships and characters too, including Jonty, Briller, Mackson, Bartender Mechanic, Princess Mechanic, Braven, Octaven, Jaya, Murven--just off the top of my head. I'm a huge fan of rare pairs!

I also blog about non-T100 stuff, including other fandoms/media, art, photography, travel, etc.

2. What tag should a visitor check?

I'm a consistent and fairly thorough tagger, and I have a (slightly outdated) tags page linked on the right sidebar. I tag all TV shows and movies by name and for The 100, I also tag characters and pairings. Pairings other than Bellarke are tagged using first name x first name, not by ship name.

All original content is tagged #mine. Most of that is fanfic, which is also tagged #my writing. Occasionally, I make moodboards, tagged #my moodboards.

I have a (fairly new) #fic reblog tag for fic I've read and a #fic rec tag for particular favorites.

I'm not negative on main very often, but I do have a tag (#the 100 negativity) for blacklisting purposes. I use the tag for both original posts and reblogs. But to give an idea of how frequently this comes up, the last post tagged as negative is from 4 months ago, and the last original negative post from 7 months ago. I also use the tags #spoilers and #[show] spoilers for several days after any sort of new content airs.

3. What do you love about the 100?

The number and variety of interesting and intriguing characters and the fascinating settings and early-seasons concepts. I can't say I've always gotten on board with some of the plots of recent seasons, but I stay in the fandom in large part because the universe is so inspirational from a transformative works standpoint. In other words, I like being part of a fandom because I like writing and reading fanfic and enjoying other creative works based on the original media, and T100 is a great fandom from that perspective. I don't just love one or two characters, I love a dozen, and I don't just have one pairing I care about, I could read and write and play around with... I don't even know how many different combinations of characters. That the friendships and family relationships are just as compelling as the romantic and potentially romantic ones is a definite plus.

Did I mention I love rare pairs?? I do.

I also feel like watching this show and being involved in this fandom has given me a greater appreciation for nature and the Earth. I guess that sounds sappy and/or weird but it's definitely true.

Also, I really feel like The 100's set and costume departments are criminally underrated. Have they won all the awards yet? The sets in particular are so consistently amazing and detailed, I am in awe.

4. What do you hate/frustrates you most about the 100?

*cracks knuckles* Time to make some enemies lol.

No, honestly, I have plenty of things I like to rant about, but I do it offline; you won't find most of it here. That said... I actually stopped watching the show itself when I found out that Jasper had died. I really can't explain or over-emphasize how much that death messed me up, or how upset I was or still am about it. Not even to go into how abjectly irresponsible and disgusting it was.

Even then, though, I thought I'd take a break, catch up over the hiatus, and come back for S5. Then I found out that the season had ended with some characters going into space and a 6 year time jump and I... just kind of didn't care anymore, to be honest. Nothing from then on has been of interest to me: the aged-up characters, their "kids," the reshuffled relationships, the new characters, the increasingly bizarre Lore, and especially the destruction of Earth and the move to the new planet. Just not for me, sorry.

I have a lot of other comparatively nitpicky complaints but for the most part, cutting ties with the canon has actually been very freeing for me. I have no reason to focus on or even give the time of day to any aspect of the show, old or new, that I don't like. So I don't. (An extensive blacklist, following only people with a good tagging system, and some degree of personal self-control also help.)

5. Is this an exclusively the 100 blog?

It is not. This is my main blog so really it's just a large, curated collection of Stuff I Like.

I run a small queue (3 posts/day), which I fill with a lot of photography, art, cats, books, tea, and the occasional fandom post. When I'm actually online, and especially when I'm writing and need some inspiration, I reblog The 100-related things, or other fandom/media stuff. I'm sort of multi-fandom, but not really.

6. What else should people know?

I'm as shy and awkward online as I am in real life, but still consider myself a friendly person! I love talking about writing--it's my main hobby and I spend so much time thinking about it, it's probably Too Much. I also (I think I've said this lol) love talking about/reading/writing rare pairs.

I like being tagged in things, including fics and other creations--I should warn that I'm a slow reader but I will get around to reading and commenting on all the fic in my bookmarks, I swear.

Most of the blogs I follow currently are pretty Bellarke-centric, which is fine, but I'm always low-key looking for blogs that focus on a greater variety of characters/ships, especially the delinquents.

I'm usually taking requests for short pieces of writing and sometimes for longer works, too.

Indiscriminately tagging the blogs I follow; I'm sure a lot of you have already been tagged, but I'm just going with this list:
