Round 3 Side B Poll 1

11. Janus Sanders and the Cassandra Fallacy - @/arealsword (ao3) vs. 17. Pieces Verse - @/SoDoRoses (FairyChess) vs. 34. Ghost Janus AU - @/SoDoRoses (FairyChess)

Propaganda:

Janus Sanders and the Cassandra Fallacy:

Image ID: A screenshot that reads: okay. listen. the cassandra fallacy is just straight up beautiful & also fucks really hard. it's a percy jackson au where canonverse thomas and co. go on a pjo-style quest & it sort of plays around with the unreliable narrator janus and cassandra truth which is just INCREDIBLY fascinating. it does some really cool things with that, none of which i can say because of spoilers, but just trust me when i say it is SO cool and i am insane about it.

the writing is witty & feels exactly like the original percy jackson books, bu if, yknow, janus narrated them instead. i don't know what else to tell you, it's just funny and delightful and an all around wonderful read.

even if the cassandra fallacy doesn't win, it is an absolutely fantastic fic!!! please do yourself a favour and read it!

Propaganda Below ☟☟☟

Micolash

"he is literally peak pathetic. nothing else to it!"

"he is so. p athetic. his boss fight is just him running away and moaning like he's getting the best head of his life while you beat on him. And you can just cheese him in six billion ways instead of giving him the satisfaction of a fair fight. He wears a dumbass chastity cage on his head and also his name is Micolash so clearly his parents didn't love him. I do though. just kidding i have a save just for murdering him over and over again. Also he's like 50 and ugly so basically Tumblrs dream guy lesssgoooo have I mentioned the moaning yet what the fuck is up with that fr"

"HE HOWLS. THIS OLD MAN RUNS AROUND HOWLING WITH HIS SHOES UNTIED. HE IS TERRIBLE AND SOGGY AND PATHETIC AND JUST LIKE ME FR. I ADORE HIM."

"Just look at him! Pathetic man with a cage on his head who howls! Obviously the best choice! Look at him run around while you chase him though his funky little nightmare! Such pathetic little meow meow material!"

"Because his a precious little bitch."

Varre

"DONT let tumblr trick you into thinking he's a sexyman hes CRINGE and LAME. he has the constitution of a wet napkin and falls on the floor like he dropped his lunch tray the second he gets smacked, spends his last living moments trying to call his boss who's the only important person in his life and gets fuckin ghosted. Anyway I hate his reputation as someone suave he sounds like a cartoon turtle and I want to shove him in a locker"

"Because he’s so fucking pathetic and gay"

Popular Danmei Character Tournament

CWs: MAJOR 2ha spoilers, genitalia mention, suggestive language, death mention, d*mon mention

Mo Ran from the Husky and His White Cat Shizun

Submission: dumbasses need representation too

He’s obsessed with his Shizun (Chu Wanning), but for plot reasons, he “hates” Chu Wanning. Still wants to fuck him tho (he thinks this is normal)

Constantly doing a fucking limbo contest where the bar is understanding his own feelings (he’s underground)  

The author pulls him and the reader through the redemption of a century kicking and screaming. 

Canonly has the largest d*ck in the cultivation realm (that we know of) - “Seen when bathing at Deyu Hall; an absolute unit, truly awe-inspiring” (Ch.131) - that leads to Chu Wanning having an entire crisis

“Because like people, an ox has gotta eat. For the sake of eating, a lot of work has to be done. If one day you can’t work anymore, then no one cares if you’re alive or dead.” - Ch.65, Ox Eats Grass 

The reason behind his “hatred-yet-not-hatred” for Chu Wanning is wild - he purposefully chose to take the Flower of Everlasting Hatred to save Chu Wanning, causing him to become Taxian-jun 

His story is also incredibly tragic, but we don’t talk about that

Six Balls from Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System

Look at the Submissions Here

A minor demon from SVSSS Shen Qingqiu meets while escaping Luo Binghe that’s become a fandom meme

Shen Qinqiu asks for a group of demons’ names, and Six Balls replies that he’s called Six Balls because when he was born, his Pa said he weighed about six balls. It is never elaborated what kind of balls was used as a measurement. 

Normally, Six Balls would be in the Less Popular section, but he’s the most submitted character at 14 submissions. Six Balls lives forever; you can’t escape him.

One Piece Shipping War - Round 3 Side B

Propaganda under the cut.

Propaganda for Law x Robin:

Their intelligent goth energy combined would be off the charts

Their backstories parallel each other perfectly! Home destroyed, hunted from a young age saved by a kind marine. Spoilers ahead: They're working together to figure out what the history of the Will of D is, and what happened in the void century! She was the only person Law trusted enough to reveal his middle initial! Also, they could do horrible things together if they decided to use their devil fruits as a team. So many limbs in places they shouldn't be.

Smart, sexy, sleek, intelligent, empathetic, humorous, *might get flustered on occasion*, hobbies: riling up Usopp. Terrific and morbid sense of humour. Just *get* one another. Very close to one another in both age and height!

Propaganda for Sanji x Law:

North blue bitches unite!! Law is definitely a nerdy fanboy who fell in love, just look at the gif i submitted. Also remember the extremely gay way law landed on sanji's shoulder in wano? Other ships could never!

Why have one traumatized north blue twins when you can have two?

[onepiece-polls]

One Piece Shipping War - Round 3 Side B

KidKiller art by @anj-does-stuff. Check out the original post here!

Propaganda under the cut.

Propaganda for Kid x Killer:

The loyalty, the way they praise each other, their past, the aesthetic, Kid's reaction to seeing Killer with a SMILE in Wano, the fact the Kid's hobby is listening to music while Killer's is playing the drums, they are made for one another.

That sweet sweet captain/first mate loyalty…can’t be beat

Killer and kids are cannonicly ride or die

Murder couple, captain x first mate will always have special place in my heart, childhood friends bonus, love that they're just unashamedly bastards together and separately

OMG they care so much for each other!!! Kid called Killer his partner! They are mates for life! 💕

Child. Hood. Best. Friends. You want more? *cracks knuckles* Growing up beside one another, calling one another partner, only ever seeing Kid crying and losing his hard head persona when it involves Killer, Killer calming down after being reunited with Kid for a bit, KILLER KNOWING WHERE - down to the centimetre- TO CUT HAWKINS’ ARM SO HE DOESN’T HARM KID!!! THE!!! CENTIMETRE!!! That’s some intimate level of knowledge right there!

Propaganda for Shachi x Penguin:

They may be underrated characters with very little screen time, but you can see that they clearly are affectionate with each other (ex: hugging in the manga) and also speaking at the same time, sharing thoughts, and beyond that, they grew up together. They've clearly known each other for a long time and typically work together very well. They are a package deal, you cannot separate them <3

Two idiots with one braincell/ two bros sitting on each other laps because they're gay / it's not gay if it's the homie

Law officiated their marriage fr

They're overcompensating for how gay they are for each other and everyone can tell

(Headcanons included) Everyone who likes a cute younger brother aura X a serious Tsundere older brother aura would love this ship! Shachi and Penguin know each other before they even met Law. I think their parents are on good term since they went to the beach together. I like to think that they knew each other since birth. They are both very close, and inseparable since forever. And it would be cute to think that the both of them only has each other. A cute and shy Penguin being best friend with a fun and exciting Shachi (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)♡ They both survived the tsunami together. And since Penguin was the oldest one. He would feel like he had the responsibility to protect Shachi. Big brother aura Penguin! He loves Shachi so much that he would do anything to protect him… They are very close for a long time because they knew each other's blood type and Shachi invited Penguin to stay at his uncle's house. ✨But of course, the uncle and aunt were abusive. Since Penguin thought that he had to protect Shachi at all cost. Penguin would always be the one to receive most of the physical abuse. Shachi would be a crybaby and cry everytime he sees Penguin in pain. But Penguin would always say that he was okay. (skipping to growing up) there's also that time where a bomb exploded. Instead of worrying about themselves, they cared about the other person more ✨I think it was Penguin would called out for Shachi?Then, there was the fighting scene on swallow island where ShachiPen fought the enemy together. I like to imagine the both of them already liking each other since their younger age. Especially Shachi. Shachi who had been protected during his childhood by Penguin decided to become stronger for him. Because of INK, my favorite artist, that drew a lot of ShachiPen, I have their version of ShachiPen stuck in my head. And it also became my headcanon. Shachi became a lot stronger than Penguin and it is now his turn to protect him. Hehehe. After Savaody I like to imagine that something bad happened to one of them. Then they finally confessed their love. ♡(ŐωŐ人)
