#so maybe they dont fit perfectly into the box of romantic or platonic

[myautismisnowyourproblem]

[vacantgodling]

for Ship Classifications: i'd love to see just. 4 random ships and what category they fit into and why

LMAO thank you for asking—i’ll do this for just my ocs but if you want fandom ships as well just lemme know 💀

MAKES SENSE / COMPELS ME

i think the most “traditional” (in terms of tropes) variation of this type of oc ship that i have that checks all the boxes for fandom madness would probably be di/toph in lukewarm rejection ngl. (1) monsterfucking (toph is a demon) (2) bickering to lovers (3) chemistry the second they meet (4) punk x reformed goody two shoes (5) religious guilt and childhood trauma makes you seek the bad boy type. (6) hot. i do kinda miss the more dramatic layers that their old wip had but it was good for my brain to let go of it finally. maybe the ashes of that wip can be something else. anyway, here, art of the sillies be upon ye.

MAKES SENSE / DOESNT COMPEL ME

calvin im/jake deluna from purple haze. as much as like. they have literally everything that constitutes one of my favorite ship dynamics (best friends to lovers) the two of them are just completely strictly platonic in my mind. i toyed with the idea of them being a thing but every time ive tried to think about it, even in a crack sense, its just made me go 🤢 LMAOOOO and i think its the two of them also protesting LMAO. they’re just more like brothers more than i can see them being romantic so even tho usually i can turn best friends into lovers, not these two. they’re just the best bros ever :DD woe, art of the sillies be upon ye.

DOESN’T MAKE SENSE / COMPELS ME

this is a bit hard to answer bc i tend to make a lot of things i like canon However after looking through my oc list i realize that i actually have many many ships that dont become a “thing” BUT i still enjoy them. that doesn’t mean they dont make sense tho, which is what im hung up on. i think a ship that’d fit this category would be kirsi/lord flykrost in alizath. and like hear me out: it makes Absolutely no sense. (1) he’s like 20+ years older than her (but that’s hot— *is spritzed with water*) (2) he’s married (3) kirsi already has two perfectly good handsome men she’s gonna end up with (amarette and juven respectively) (4) they literally canonically are going to have more of a father/daughter or mentor/mentee type relationship BUT THIS DOES NOT STOP MY BRAIN APPARENTLY. lord flykrost is hot to me. i can’t explain what he looks like bc i haven’t solidified that yet but just know he’s hot. more than just physically tbh his entire vibe is giving nanami from jjk so ig that’s why he’s hot to me (and if you don’t know said character dw about it bc i literally don’t go there i only care about him; tldr men who cut the bullshit and take responsibility and look after those younger than them or less privileged or capable than them are hot ? also Big. Big man. tiddies. thank you for coming to my ted talk). so idk the idea of him being all strong romantic lead and taking care of kirsi is very woof woof awooga to me LMAO. but like i said this just isn’t gonna happen it just lives rent free in my head 💀💀💀💀

DOESN’T MAKE SENSE / DOESN’T COMPEL ME

genuinely if (and probably when) i see people ship madja and jihi in tcol i will actually kill people LOL. like no spoilers ig but like while cnc can be fine in some instances this is very much a nc situation so like. you do you ig but like i actually can’t stand madja GJRJRJRJRJ

So I had a shit birthday so here’s my fav TWST boys celebrating your birthday because I can

=============== Warnings: cursing

Characters: Azul, Ruggie, Jamil, Vil, Ace, Deuce, Floyd, Jade

This can be romantic or platonic

=============================

He remembered your birthday sure

But he was completely unprepared

So like any respectable person would, he dumped the lounge on Jade and Floyd and went gift hunting

My boy visited so many shops but nothing fit his standards

Well there was one thing… but you would surely hate it!!!!

But it was all he had

So he later approached you with shaking hands and a beautifully wrapped box

As you opened it he avoided eye contact and a light blush was on his face

Inside you found a gorgeous black fountain pen with gold tentacles engraved into the side

It certainly reminded you of him

And maybe don’t bring up the octo theme unless you want him to blush like a tomato

“You obviously don’t have a magic pen. So maybe this can help you fit in more… of course if you dont like it I can return it right away!”

It’s your birthday? Why didn’t anyone tell him!

He demanded extra money from Leona this time

Leona is now throwing a bitch fit about a certain hyena getting to comfortable asking for more money

But who cares what that lazy prince says! All that matters is for him to get you a gift

And so he approached you before class and threw an arm around your shoulders smiling

He handed you a steaming bag and a piece of fabric

You unfolded the fabric to find a bandana identical to the one Ruggie wears around his neck

And inside the bag were half a dozen fresh perfect doughnuts

How he managed not to eat them is a mystery

“Now you’re officially a part of Savannaclaw! And you’d better enjoy those! Took a lot not to eat them myself! Shishishishi!”

Jamil actually found out from Kalim who was now committed to throwing you a birthday feast

And for once Jamil wasn’t fully against it

But this meant he now had to handle watching Kalim, doing a supply run for the feast, preparing the actual feast, AND getting you a gift

Somehow while he was getting supplies at Sams he found the perfect gift

Lucky huh?

In the end he successfully made an entire feast and made sure Kalim didn’t give you a fortunes worth of gifts

Later as Kalim was suffocating feeding Grim he led you outside and gave you a small fancy box

Inside you found a golden snake ear cuff with ruby eyes on it

It was beautiful and fit you perfectly

“It’s nothing extravagant but I thought you would like it. You deserve something nice. Kalim! No magic carpet inside the dorm!”

SPA DAY

Vil ended up hearing from Rook who heard from Kalim who was inviting people to your birthday feast

Well you can’t go dressed like that! On your birthday no less!

You deserve to look the best on your birthday, and after this you will catch everyone’s eye!

Face masks, moisturizers, anything for his favorite potato

He can and will lecture you about the importance of self care

After everything he dresses you up in the perfect outfit designed specially for you!

Now you were ready for your party

“How do you live like this! Come on potato I’ll have you looking perfect for your party, consider it a gift”

Idiot 1

He totally forgot

He only remembered when he saw Ruggie give you your gift

He was standing next to you like 🧍 why is he giving you breakfast?

Then it hit him ‘oh shit’

When I tell you my boy sprinted so fast to Sams only to realize he forgot his wallet

So he ran back to his dorm and made sure to avoid you on the way

He failed miserably avoiding you you saw him immediately as he tried to jump a bush and tripped over it

After all that he approached you and gave you a fancy deck of cards with his signature smirk on

He also had sticks in his hair

“Here ya go! From yours truly! NO I DID NOT FORGET! I’ll even teach you some cars tricks, it’ll be like you almost have magic!”

Idiot 2

At least HE remembered before he saw you

But like Ace he fan back to his dorm to think of a gift

Then it hit him!

He came up to you with the proudest smile and handed you a crudely wrapped gift

You unwrapped it to find a baseball bat he even started to decorate with a spade sticker, his delinquent is showing

He holds it over Aces head that he remembered before he did

Like hun you still forgot

But all was well and now you can all decorate it together

“Now you can defend yourself if me and Ace aren’t around! And you can customize it however you want! I’ll buy you some stickers for it.”

It’s Shrimpy’s birthday? HELL YEA

He's so excited maybe even for than you

So he ditched his shift at the lounge to come hang out with you!

He went up to you right before lunch at dragged you away claiming you were going to spend the whole day together

He first brought you to the lounge to have lunch for free of course

He also 100% asked if you wanted him to squeeze anyone for you

Speaking of squeezes you’re getting so many today! He’s just so excited for his Shrimpy!

After lunch he dragged you to the basketball court claiming he wanted to teach you but it quickly turned into him teasing you for being to short for the sport

Azul had to force him back to work

“Shrimpy why didn’t you tell me it was your birthday! Lets do something fun together!!!”

Oh boy someone save him

He committed your birthday to memory but with all this work that just piled up how is he supposed to give you your gift???

Azul put him and Floyd in charge of the lounge but Floyd ditched shortly after and he has classes on top of that??!!?

But he somehow caught you after Azul brought Floyd back and you were headed to Scarabia

He ran up with his hands behind his back and a rare genuine smile on his face

You were definitely suspicious

But he handed to you an adorable terrarium and inside were beautiful bright mushrooms!

He was so excited to tell you how to care for them

You guys are shroom buddies ok

“Oh! I somehow caught you. Well this is for you. Hehe this is no trick I assure you.”
