#ryuji reminds me of the guy from monkey high....i should reread that shojo manga....

[sillyfudgemonkeys]

Hoping this doesn't get dicey; any thoughts on poly ships? Like poly IT or polythieves? (And/or any favs?)

It shouldn't. Unless people can't handle my NoTPs while reading this (that's on them, I can't control nor judge how people will react and that's fine).

Poly like as in an OT3/OT4? Or as in the WHOLE cast?

OT3/OT4? Yeah I'm cool. Gotta be in the mood sometimes but yeah (but sometimes it's just......not all 3/4 at the same time if you catch my drift? Sometimes it's just two/three combos within the 3/4 group I like)

I'm not down for the WHOLE cast. Mostly cause of my NoTPs. I greatly hate K*nNao with a passion and I view it as one of the worst ships (mostly cause it ignores Naoto's feelings and fanon wise can really screw up her character if I had to get straight to the point without really fluffing it out). But I like YuKan and SouNao, but I wouldn't be really into an OT3 with them (unless neither Kanji nor Naoto were like romantically involved with each other). I'm not....really of fan of SouYo (blame the SL and blame Yosuke's arc, I feel like the way his SL goes he'd be regressing in growth with making Souji a rebound/replacement goldfish on top of that and I just don't vibe with it). I don't like YukiChie ("Wow Silly, you hate all the big LGBT!P4 ships" Yeah. They left a bad taste in my mouth, except NaoRise.....tho y'all love to shove one unappealing ape in the middle of my decent yuri ship don't you? >_>), mostly cause it puts Chie in the "prince" role which kinda.....plays into her whole femininity issues and I think can harm her......which tbh you can break down my issues of those 3 big ships being "it hurts the development/writing of the character in some way" which ironically can only happen with those ships because of the events of how things have played out). I like NaoRise, I like KanRise but fuck if I like them all together. I don't like SouRise (I don't get why she latches onto him so much. Yukiko and Chie? Can't be attracted to a bear and they know Yosuke so I can see it, it's not that in your face tbh. Naoto? Social link gives the reasoning there. Marie? Same as Naoto. Lord knows why Rise latched onto Yu except he's the best looking guy? She seems to have more emotional attachment behind it but.....it just left a poor taste in my mouth), that being said I can OT3 SoujiNaotoRise. Not a fan of YuMarie, the friendship route is the best, and I do feel like a brother at times (also I didn't get to romance Grey haired Izanami u_u). I can ship Teddie with....pretty much anyone on the team tbh (maybe not Yuki and Chie tho never really thought about it), dunno why.....I like his dynamic with Souji/Naoto/Yosuke/Kanji a lot. Oh! SouSho/ShoYu or however you wanna call it, I'm not one for foeyay or antagonistxprotagonist ships but I like this one (probably cause how they execute it). I can OT3 SouNaoYo (I like SouNao and YoNao) same with SouNaoTed (cause I also like NaoTed). Uhhh Kanji I'll ship with....Yukiko, Rise (ironically Yukiko also ships it, and I like it cause Kanji and Rise literally see the other person truthfully which is.....what they want???? why don't they like each other??? they are literally fulfilling the needs of each other???), P4D!Nozomi, Yosuke (I like their bromance that's probably why), and Teddie (I might vibe with Chie cause he does show interest in her along with Yukiko but he and Yukiko have a history so I can see it more than with Chie). Chie is with MC (mostly Tracey!/Japanese!Chie, Erin!Chie.........orz), Yosuke (tho that's more of an old ship I hold a torch for I'm ehish on it now), and Aki atm (I can see her with a girl just......not what we have available). Yukiko it's Kanji.........yeah Kanji (I actually just really like these two together, I can see Yuki with a chick, maybe Labby but.....hmmmm OH I did like the YukiMitsu crack ship.....but other than that I just haven't really vibed with her romantically with other chars).

With SEES (might as well include them) I do not ship Yukari with anyone (except maybe crack ship her with Junpei for their own dismay..... or Hamu on certain days, then again Hamu is my shipping bicycle). And Junpei I only ship with Chidori or Fuuka (he at least showed interest with Fuuka prior to Chidori, but JunpeixMC/FeMC is similar to Yosuke above with it most likely hurting his growth). I absolutely detest Yukari with Mitsuru (I'll ship Mitsuru with MC/FeMC/Kikuno/Aki/literally anyone who is better than Yukari get yourself a gal/guy who WON'T slap you at your lowest girl you deserve soooo much better ;w;). I don't ship Ken with anyone besides Makoto N/Haru (same age purposes of course), for obvious reasons. Same with Koro....for obvious reasons. I don't ship Aki/Shinji together (their personas are literally brothers and I just.....don't see a romance with them.....maybe it's cause I'm not super used to Yaoi but...like...*glances at MC/Ryoji* I can see that tho....). I only ship Aki with Mitsuru, Chie, and training (I really dislike his romance with the FeMC, the sister thing felt icky and I hate how you have to convince him). I can easily OT4 Minato/Hamuko/Aigis/Ryoji. Fuuka I vibe with MC/FeMC/Junpei/Natsuki (probably the only char that has a "best friend" I ship them with, I don't like Y*kiChie, Y*kaMitsu, and I like pics of AnneShiho, I don't really ship them..... maybe due to lack of screen time? But regardless something hits different about Fuuka/Natsuki and it's probably because it's the better Y*kaMitsu sorry I don't make the rules, actual genuine friendship and apology here guys blame the writers for screwing over the other and making FuuNatsu the best, and blame the writers for not showing them more u_u).

Anne and Haru are more my shipping bicycles for this, tho I don't really ship Makoto with anyone besides Ken/Goro atm (I don't mind seeing MakoHaru tho, hate ShuMako and I'm not a big fan of MakoAnne......mostly cause I get similar YukaM*tsu vibes for toxic levels). Haru I ship with MC/Ryuji/Goro pretty hardcore (I can easily ship her with Anne too at times). I do like PegoRyu, and I like ShuAnne, and I like the PegoRyuAnne OT3 (I can probs OT3 MCAnneHaru or OT4 PegoRyuAnneHaru but that's for the PT, maybe add Sumi into one or all of the 3 combos but eh), I do not like RyuAnne tho (they feel too bro-ish and state pretty clearly they don't like each other that way, but I can see a vibe going if it was an OT3 tbh). MC it's mostly Ryuji/Anne/Haru/Sumi. I guess Futaba/Yusuke but I don't really care it's a pair the spares (maybe it's like Yukari and Junpei, I wanna see their dismay). I really don't like Sh*Taba, mostly cause, like Yosuke, it felt like it'd hurt her growth (mostly cause in her case her CoOp raised BIG red flags that made me squirm, something I didn't really see with Sumi) Goro is just with Sumi (if I'm not heavily BrOTPing them tbh), I highly dislike Sh*Ake (Like Yukari and Mitsuru, I cannot buy a friendship between them). Mona can eat a boot.

I tried censoring some ships so they don't appear in the tags but eh (it's under a read more so it should be safe? Hopefully? I tried). As you can see I'm a multishipper (that's not even going into my crossover ships, tbh I feel like I probs forgot a couple), and I like straight, yaoi, and yuri (obvie I rep more of the rarepair LGBT P4 ships 8U). I just have a certain preferences when it comes to the ships I guess? Give me a ship and I can either tell why I like/love it, why I hate it, or why I'm either "meh I vibe" or "meh I don't really vibe" or "I feel nothing" (I guess that's an open invitation but eh).
