JELLO MOLDS & CHAINS OF GOLD.
sydney x carmen — blurb.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
warnings: nothing tbh. just a short and sweet sydcarmy blurb (platonic or not idc. i ship them, doesn't mean u have to <3!)
song: two reverse.
"Do you remember when everyone thought it was a great idea to bring back these fuckin'— " Sydney paused, coating her fingertip in the coffe cake batter left over on the silicone spatula, and licking it clean.
"Oh, that's good—these stupidly expensive jello molds from the 60s?" She kept her eyes on the jello mold that hung up in Carmen's kitchen, assuming that it was most likely a gift from a family friend who didn't know the first thing about baking, or any form of culinary arts for that matter.
"And everyone just thought jello was a good compromise for, like–I don't know, actual dessert?"
"Yeah," Carmen let out a breathy laugh as he reached for the counter over Sydney's head for ground cinnamon, "Fak got it f'me as like a housewarming gift. Haven't used it once." He carefully poured in 4 teaspoons of cinnamon into a bowl of brown sugar and flour.
Sydney and Carmen had been flipping through endless amounts of basic and generic desserts, just to see if they'd have the inspiration to spice any of them up. But nothing seemed to light that spark of motivation. So, they were left with coffee cake as a last resort.
"I mean, no hate against jello. It's pretty, but.." Sydney trailed off as she poured a cup of cool, melted butter into that same bowl. Her and Carmen had a tendency to insist that everything had to be a 2 person job.
"But it's not coffee cake." Carmen turned his head to Sydney, finishing her sentence for her. Her lips curled up into a smile, her front teeth slightly visible while she nodded her head and looked right into Carmen's eyes in agreement.
"Yeah. Or, y'know, a cannoli."
"Jesus, Sydney. Stop." Carmen shook his head, smiling hard as he kept his eyes glued to the counter in hopes that Sydney wouldn't notice that he was laughing at her mean jokes.
"You know I'm not letting that go!" She glanced at Carmen again, the sunlight beaming from the window reflecting on his gold chain that poked out from underneath his black sweater. It was almost like her sign to look away; her sign that Carmen would look right back at her.
It was her sign that she'd fall apart if their eyes locked, and she'd have to build herself back up the second he turned away.
hope u guys like this! also, i better not see any sydcarmy discourse. this blurb can be interpreted however you want. i don't CARE !!! >(

sometimes I see people tagging my art with "is it ship art?" or directly with ship tags, and I just wanna say
u do whatever you want!! if you wanna see my art as a ship piece, then go for it, even if i dont ship the characters, i dont care [of course this EXCLUDES minors. please never tag a piece with a minor character and an adult as ship art.]
hugs can be platonic or romantic, holding hands as well, kiss your homies goodnight, you know you know
of course i do draw outright romantic art, if you see characters kissing there's a high chance it's not platonic lmao
but the rest idc. up to interpretation. u see whatever u wanna see. im just a silly guy and im not closed to this stuff

You know, it wouldn't even occur to me that certain ships might even exist... if authors of fanart like yours (even before your dragonball phase) didn't insist on bringing that fact to my attention by screaming murder at anyone who might dare interpret their stuff in a certain way. And it's exactly that disclaimer that causes me to look closer at the art in question and realize that... oh wow, right, Gohan is really acting like a jealous lover here, huh? Assuming he must be the One Person (1/3)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My condolences about your daddy issues or whatever, but you're the one that's reading weirdly deep into this, dude. I genuinely don't know what kind of 'gotcha' you think you wrote but... damn.
Is this your first day on the internet? People tag and draw blatantly-platonic seeming art that's actually ship art upon closer investigation constantly. Now idc what people do as long as its properly tagged, but it's a different story when my art is involved. Of course my DNIs are to prevent "misunderstandings." I'm not a moron; anyone can pick out supporting evidence for their bias if they look for it, which is exactly the point of saying I don't condone it. It's me going "Hey, these are my boundaries! If you don't respect them, that's shitty of you!"
I can't control how people interpret my art. I know this—but I can sure as hell clear the air about my intent and opinions. So I'll make myself very clear: I don't like my content being seen in a romantic context. Unless I confirm otherwise, it's platonic. Why? Because I fucking say so. If word of god isn't reason enough, that's on you. Your inability to see emotional intimacy between two adults as anything but romantic is not my fault—nor is it my responsibility to overcorrect.
It may shock you that, yes, this is how many families do interact. Not everyone's idea of a "convincingly portrayed" family dynamic is going to be the same. I'm a very sappy person irl and so is my family. It's honestly kind of pathetic that you obviously think my content is too much for a paternal relationship.
Even aside from that though, your arguments are just bad. I mean did you even reread this before you sent it? Sure. "Gohan acts like a jealous lover..." of his preschool-age daughter. Yeah, that's a totally normal take. Really makes you seem like a well-adjusted individual. I don't even know where you got the jealousy thing from since he spends the whole comic actively trying to leave and stop Pan from sticking up for him. Your other points are just conspiratorial; I see no point addressing them.
So yeah, take your final proposition and shove it. Maybe focus on how to "effectively and convincingly portray" whatever content measures up to your standards instead of preaching to me like I shouldn't do the same. I don't owe you jack—especially when you're too much of a coward to talk down to me while hiding behind anon.
And if this is who I think it is (given the timeframe you let slip), get off of that damn high horse already. You're not the patron saint of correct characterization, and your unwarranted criticism doesn't make you look smart. It makes you look like an entitled tool who can't resist hearing your own voice. Quit tearing people's hobby work down because you can't find enough fan content to satisfy your own standards.
I love found family. I love sickeningly sweet """unconvincing""" found family, and if you think that's trite, ooc, or—I guess, romantic—keep it to yourself. You're not going to 'con'crit me out of creating exactly what makes me happy, and this weird victim-blamey diatribe sure as hell isn't either. If anything, you've only convinced me to keep using DNIs.

PSA: 80% of my fan content could be interpreted as either gen or ship. Even things I tag with ship names. Want to see them as In Love? Sure. Best friends? That’s great too. Sibling dynamic? Absolutely! Some combination of these? However you wanna interpret is cool with me, idc!
A lot of things I ship romantically I also like to see in a platonic way! So unless the art/fic/post is explicitly romantic (they’re kissing, the rare nsfw, etc.) then you’re totally free to interpret it as platonic.
& and / relationships blur together a lot for me and I multiship the same pairing a lot. I’m not especially into NSFW or even explicit romance a lot of times, unless the genre itself is romance, so usually it’s just that I like the vibe of the characters together.
I call it a + relationship. Shroedinger’s ship. Just the two characters together, in whatever way you want in the moment. I think this sort of open/mixed intention should become more popular.
Anyway. Tag my art/fic with whatever. Interpret relationships I tag as / as platonic. I’m just happy when people like my stuff, once it leaves my hands it’s up to you.

just out of curiosity since you mentioned you only have a couple of ships, who do you ship in genshin?
*sweats*
Don't mind me as I panic because I'm literally scared of the shipping-side of fandoms in general (I've seen how people talk to each other on twitter when their ships don't align and, oh boy, I want nothing to do with that...) >.<'
But my ships are fairly popular aside from one... I guess? I have three I like. Just to give a specific number. And while I don't read or write ship fanfics, since I prefer x Reader, I do like to look at fanart occasionally.
I'll put them UTC because I assume some people don't want to read that on their timeline since this is primarily an x Reader blog <3
Zhongli x Guizhong
I've shipped them pretty much since I started playing the game in 2021. I got super invested into Zhongli's lore and eventually came across her name. Then I started digging deeper into her lore and theories about her and fell in love with her and the ship.
I suppose this is something of a niche ship? Especially now with the new Lantern Rite where GuiPing seems to have overtaken it. And I've already seen people attacked over shipping GuiLi because of that too on twt now... cause apparently it's homophobic to ship them now? Idk... make it make sense. This is why I usually stay out of this.
2. Cyno x Tighnari
These two... I swear Sumeru has changed me somehow because as I stated in prior asks: I'm usually not into shipping characters so whenever I start liking two characters I have a sort of "denial stage" at first where I'm like "nah, I don't ship them... or maybe... no.... yes?".
And at first I was like "yeah they're best friends, whatever"... then I saw more and more fanart and was like "yeah, you know what, they're kinda cute." and eventually fanart converted me into shipping them. So, good job fanartists - the domestic and cuddly scenarios you put them in made me cave 👌🏻
And lastly...
3. Alhaitham x Kaveh
This one also seems to be quite popular and I basically just got past the above mentioned denial stage, haha! 😂
I have to admit I couldn't stand Kaveh at all at first, he seemed like a handful and I was like "yeah, they'd never get along in a million years, especially not as a couple."
Then I played Haitham's story quest and saw the interaction with Kaveh... then I saw more fanart again. Then [insert denial stage here] and I guess I'm now at the point where I can say, yeah... I like them and I also like Kaveh now... he is just such a kindhearted soul (even if he is a bit eccentric, I suppose).
Good job fanartists, once again 🤝🏻
So yeah, that is all of them.
I want to mention that I am really lost when it comes to shipping terminology and I also don't really want to get involved in all that stuff. It's all a bit too stressful for me.
I do want to draw fanart of these ships but I'm a bit too scared to do so and only drew things that could be interpreted as both ship or platonic (they're posted on my art blog, I'll keep this blog clear of that). Because I've seen how vile shippers get towards other ships at times when they don't like the portrayed one... instead of - you know - ignoring it??? Especially on twt.
And don't get me started on some "rules" people have put up for shipping. Like, just let me have the idea of two fictional characters being all lovey-dovey. If it makes me or anyone else happy, who cares? (as long as it isn't problematic ships ofc...)
I never intend to write ship fanfic however since that is something I also don't enjoy consuming myself. I always preferred self-insert 🤷🏻‍♀️
And lastly, idc if anyone ships these peeps with someone else or doesn't ship them with anyone at all. It's fictional characters and at the end of the day... it ain't that deep (which is why I'll never understand why some people make such a fuss over it...)

Hey I just wanted to share my thoughts about the whole "shipping hms" thing,,
I'm somebody who's largely against shipping them I'm apart of the group that find shipping them uncomfortable, though I don't see them as brothers at all I just generally dislike shipping the three. Idc about selfcest either btw I just find it weird specifically for hms.
I think the three have a very interesting dynamic/relationship that can be explored in so many ways that romance is not necessary for them and it doesn't really need to be touched on in that light because there's so many other ways to explore their relationships that doesn't make people uncomfortable.
Also the fact that hms are all quite toxic to eachother Heart trying to shoot Mind, Mind or Soul likely being the cause of Heart's blindness, Mind trying to get Soul to "get rid of" or kill Heart. I think having those kinds of interactions and mixing them with romantic relationships is kind of gross especially with all the art people draw of them hurting eachother.
On the note of the fandom I think shipping would drag this fandom down, the cj fandom is a very positive space and shipping in fandoms often leads to more issues/drama especially when it's selfcest
For the most part I think it's better to just leave shipping out of CCCC we don't need it the story and fandom work just fine without it
I get where you're coming from, but personally I don't agree with some of your points.
I may be wrong, but I get the feeling you wrote this under the assumption I want shipping to be a big part of this fandom. So, just to clarify, I don't want that at all. I'm more than fine with this fandom keeping the relationships completely platonic. But I do think that romantic interpretation could be interesting. I agree that there are many ways you can explore the dynamics WITHOUT romance, it's not necessary at all, but I just think it'd be fun to explore it in that light. That's solely my opinion, though, and I don't want shipping to become a major thing cause I don't want people to feel like they're forced to ship the characters or something.
About the fact that you believe it'd be toxic, I get where you're coming from, but it's important to note that Mind and Heart reconcile by the end of the album. I feel like if we go by that logic, they'd have a toxic friendship as well, then we can't make any content that's not angsty tearing-eachothers-throats out.
I, again, don't want shipping to be big in this fandom, and I think a lot of people feel the same. I agree that it might bring the fandom down if it got too big, but I don't think that's a good enough reason to not enjoy it a little. The last thing I want is there to be fighting in this community, it's a very pleasant online space.
At the end of the day, I don't think shipping is necessary at all in this fandom, I just think it'd be fun to play around with the idea. My main goal in fandom spaces is just to have fun.
Thank you so much for your input! :)

Regardless of whether we're talking platonic or romantic or whatever—you're right, Bill is obsessed with Ford post-betrayal, you can't even say it's just to try to get through the barrier because he invites Ford to join him and then carries him around like a little kid's favorite stuffed animal long before he realizes Ford might still be useful to him—
But like, that's post-betrayal. It's an entirely different story pre-betrayal, when Ford calls Bill a "fickle being" who seemingly only visits him irregularly, but nevertheless Ford's got a shrine COATED in art of Bill, a shrine he spent either a whole lot of money or a whole lot of time creating. It's not much of a stretch to say Ford worshipped Bill (with whatever undertones to "worship" you personally feel like tacking onto the dynamic). If there was a one-sided anything back then, it was on Ford's side.
And then, very abruptly, it switched. And I do mean abruptly—Ford's change of heart is more dramatic and obvious, but based on Bill's notes in Ford's journal it seems even he made a pretty quick flip from taunting Ford over being deceived to trying to sincerely persuade Ford that his way is right. I wouldn't be surprised if something about the confrontation over Bill's betrayal is what triggered his switch from seeing Ford as a disposable pawn to seeing him as a friend and (dubious) "equal."
They were each dying for a little affection and compassion from somebody who at best disdained them and at worst hated them—but both of them were on both sides of that dynamic to each other. They were each enthralled with the other but never simultaneously, it was never reciprocated.
Tumblr media
idc whether or not you interpret that as a "ship"; if you look at this tragedy and it makes you feel like screaming (mainly at Bill, but like, in general), then we are seeing the same vision
I dont ship billford and theres a lot to say about their dynamic being fucked up and unhealthy and unbalanced but I do think they got homoeroticism objectively

Jevil 👀? (for that little ask game)
HELL YES HELL YES JEVIL TIME JEVIL TIME
• favourite thing about them: his personality he is so silly and funny and my most favourite ever. love how there are so many different ways you could interpret his dialogue. he's a mysterious character but that makes me enjoy him more bc there are so many unknowns abt him and so much room for more development and it's fun to make my own takes on it
• least favourite thing about them: his fight is so fucking hard i tried fighting him for the first time yesterday and he thoroughly kicked my ass for like 5 hours............... help
• favourite line:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i love all of his dialogue, but these lines are my favs!
• brotp: i do enjoy seavil romantically, but im mostly a fan of it as a platonic relationship, they seem like they would have so much fun together and i think seam could use the excitement, i think having jevil around would maybe help to perk them up a bit. i also love thinking abt jevil being friends with the main cast in general, esp susie and lancer. they would have so much fun
• otp: obv spamvil lol, they are running around like crazy inside my mind 24/7. their personalities make for such a fun dynamic and i love thinking abt how they could help each other come to terms with their respective situations post ch 2. i think they'd be good for each other and in the end i just wanna see both of them happy
• notp: gross ships i.e. him being shipped with the kid characters are always a huge nope from me. other than that i can't rlly think of anything though
• random headcanon: this one is probably evident from some of my art, but i think he was able to travel between dark worlds before he was locked up, much like how ralsei can too. i think he spent quite a lot of time hanging out in the cyberworld as well as the dark world from chapter 1 of course......... whether this is something he could always do or an ability he received after his meetings with the mystery contact, im not sure yet
• unpopular opinion: once again more of a mischaracterisation complaint, but i think his character gets simplified down way too often by the fandom. this is kinda understandable bc he's very mysterious in canon and doesn't get much time in the limelight, but if you read more deeply into many of his lines and the stuff seam says abt him it's obvious that he's a complex character like everyone else in deltarune. i personally view his whole crazy clown act and the stuff abt freedom as a giant coping mechanism he's built up around himself......... sometimes i worry that i take him too seriously and it makes me look cringy or silly but idc. the clown lives in my brain 24/7
• song i associate with them: SO MANY i have a whole huge playlist for him but rn the main two are hokus pokus by icp and no normal by black dresses
• favourite picture: just a little guy

Italy siblings
Gonna do nyos too because i won't be asked but i love them.
Romano:
Sexuality hc: hot take, pansexual.
Gender hc: Cis man,,,,,, but I love the Italy sibs as nonbinary.
A ship: a fucking lotttttt. Welcome to multishipping hell. But uh, prumano and framano are both great.
A brotp: His relationship with Veneziano is always interesting, they good siblings, good boios. I also like platonic spamano tho!
A notp: Look. I'm like the chillest shipper. Idc.
Random hc: He loves opera. Like a lot. He's the one swishing his wine glass around and reminiscing about the Opera of the past. Probably fell in love with a lot couple of singers in the past. He's a sap.
General opinion: I stan him tons. Gotta love. He's great and I honestly don't like how some people portray him. So sad, Alexa play despacito.
Veneziano:
Sexuality hc: Pansexual or aromantic pansexual.
Gender hc: Nonbinary!
A ship: A, you guessed it, lot. I like itapan most besides gerita. Though I don't ship them often at all.
A brotp: Besides them with Romano, Platonic. Gerita. (Especially when they're both nonbinary aro disasters sign me up)
A notp: I don't got any.
Random hc: Ok, ok so this is a joke I had with a friend once. It's just funny and the first thing that came to mind. So they will put themselves in weird, potentially dangerous situations, but not because they're self destructive or anything. Just because they want to feel the most true emotions possible to make their art more expressive XD.
General opinion: I love them. They're great. As a character with a lot lf interpretations, it's hard to agree on stuff sometimes, but I love them regardless.
Romana:
Sexuality hc: Bisexual with a women lean.
Gender hc: Male to female totally and forever thanks Yuki.
A ship: I,,,, lot. Though pls, nyo framano or nyo germano.
A brotp: Her with her sister is the greatest, but I also love her with Nyo Spain because I'm soft.
A notp: *whips* what's that
Random hc: She's more realistic than Lovino and less of a complete romantic. She's still soft though and has wild dreams and ambitions. She's just more likely not to randomly fall for gorgeous sounding opera singers i guess XD. (Though that cute genderfluid model over there??? Holy fuck she's gay.)
General opinion: I love her,,,,, a lot. Like a lotta lot.
Veneziana:
Sexuality hc: LESBIANISM.
Gender hc: She's a cis girlo.
A ship: Generally, I love nyo itapan and nyo rusita. It's so cute!! Also nyo ausita, tho that can have it's mehs.
A brotp: Her with her sister, obviously, but also Monika is her ride or die and they'll kick ass together all day everyday.
A notp: can't compute.
Random hc: She's femme in build but dresses like a butch. She loves fashionable masculine clothing mostly for how comfortable it is but damn does she love fancy clothes on other people. She's big gay.
General opinion: YES.

eirika, mila (whichever), wa2000 but you can't otp her with the commander
hoo boy this’ll be a long one~ 
Eirika-
Favorite Thing About Them: I really fucking love Eirika’s whole arc, I love that she’s this really kind-hearted and charismatic princess who’s the textbook definition of femininity, but also when she realizes the lives of her friends, family, and all the citizens of Renais, are on the line, she absolutely pushes back and suddenly she’s this fierce and unstoppable warrior princess and it’s fucking amazing. My girl Eirika looked Glenn, one of the mightiest warriors of Grado, in the eye and basically said, “look man, I don’t want to fight you, but if you leave us no choice I’ll send you crying back to your emperor”.
Least Favorite Thing About Them: Fandom interpretation of her and basically how IntSys actively tries to erase her role as a protagonist of the game.
Favorite Line: 
“I… We, the people of Renais, have long honored our allegiance with the Grado Empire. And you invaded without warning. You ravaged our land. You killed my father… Even then, I told myself, I must not hate Grado or her people. If I gave in to my hate, the bond between our lands would be lost forever. I refused to hate. Instead, I lived for the day our nations would know peace again. But… If this is Grado’s true face… If you could extinguish Renais without pity, without remorse… If this is the case, then there is no room in my heart for forgiveness.”
brOTP: Eirika&Tana! I never really liked them as a romantic pairing but I do love the friendship they have and how much they care about each other. I also 100% believe they would wingman for each other while looking for GFs
OTP: Self and crack shipping aside, I got two- Eirika x L’arachel is basically canon and also like, the best dynamic Eirika has in SS. Their A support is basically a marriage proposal and then there’s the scene in Rausten where in Eirika’s at her lowest point in the story and it’s L’arachel who’s there to pick her up. They’re really sweet, and really gay. 
The other pairing would be Eirika and Lyon. They have an adorable dynamic and idc what anyone says, Eirika definitely returned his feelings, Lyon just never had the self-esteem to spit it out. I definitely live for fics/content of them where Lyon can assert himself a bit.
nOTP: Literally everyone of her male supports. They range from gross to sexist to really boring. The only guy on that list that’s good is Forde and that support is like, entirely platonic imo. 
Random Headcanon: Eirika definitely gives off like, Alpha WLW vibes and has girls swooning over her across MagVel and none of it is intentional on her part/she doesn’t realize it’s happening. 
Unpopular Opinion: She is absolutely a better written and more interesting protagonist than Ephraim. 
Song I associate with them: Aside from a track within her own game, I don’t think I ever really had an ‘Eirika’ song? If I dig through what I’ve been listening to lately though I could sorta slap this one on her 
Favorite Picture of them:
Tumblr media
Fractured Milla (’cause she needs more love)-
Favorite Thing About Them: I liked her difference in personality compared to regular Milla, I liked how she was a lot more outspoken aggressive. Xillia 2 definitely felt like it picked up a lot more once she joined the party. 
Least Favorite Thing About Them: I was really disappointed with how early she left the party and the fact that she didn’t have any mystic artes : /
Really she just felt very underutilized 
Favorite Line: ”I knew I wouldn’t like you”
brOTP: F.Milla&Elle! Their relationship is so good and wholesome in ToX2 and oH MY GOD IT BREAKS MY HEART SO MUCH, PLEASE PLAY XILLIA 2
OTP: F.Milla/Ludger- I mean, they were kinda written for each other, but still, the moments they share are really good, Milla wants to trust and like him but can’t let go of her grudge but they’re still brought together by wanting to protect Elle at all costs.
nOTP: F.Milla/Jude- Jude’s got his own Milla, and that’s really all there is to say on the matter lol
Random Headcanon: She absolutely hates the outfits Prime Milla wears and doesn’t care how many times she’s told Elle and Ludger that day about it
Unpopular Opinion: Idk if I really have any on this character, but I think she was the more interesting Milla tbh
I super don’t have a song or favorite pic but here’s more official art:

WA2000-
Favorite thing about them: her smile Her designs are always really fucking cool and absolutely gorgeous. And then personality wise I love that she’s just like- if Asuka Langley Soryu/Rin Tohsaka was a YorHa android
Least Favorite thing about them: I was gonna make a joke about how there’s nothing I could say here but then I thought about it and realized the reason there’s not much I can say is because she hasn’t been featured in a whole lot of story, but that’s more a weakness of GFL than her character. For as well written as the characters and the story are here, no dolls really get enough focus outside of AntiRain/404/DEFY
Favorite Line: ”I, of all people, am giving you my gratitude. So you better accept it from the bottom of your heart. “
brOTP: WA2000&Springfield- I feel like Springfield is just trying to be a good wingman for Wa2k and it’s really cute and nice
OTP: Since I’m banned from self-shipping here, I’ll go with the equally self-satisfying answer and say Wa2k/M16 where M16 comes in and sweeps her off her feet and Wa2k can’t handle it in the slightest. 
I also feel like there’s a decent case for Wa2k/Jill, where Wa2k saved Jill and when Jill tries to give thanks, Wa2k gets really flustered and tries to play it off like it was no big deal
nOTP: I don’t think I have one? I haven’t really seen a bad Wa2k ship
Random Headcanon: Wa2k is the subbiest sub/biggest gay disaster to ever be created in an IOP lab. When asked why anyone would make a helplessly gay combat android, Persica simply laughed before promptly removing the press from her office.
Unpopular Opinion: Apparently this is unpopular in some circles but I really do think that Wa2k is the beginner friendly SSR in the game and can work well in literally any team comp. 
Song I associate with them: Hhhhhhhh
I also feel like she’d be into Halsey
Favorite picture of them:
