[proton-selfships]

So I just read this great post by @kittyandco and it struck a really, really deep chord with me as someone who was also in the selfship community in ye olden days (as in, pre-pandemic olden days).

Now, don't get me wrong, those days weren't perfect either. I still experienced hostility for little reason, and it still hurts me to think about and affects my ability to trust people to this day. And I sure as hell wasn't the only one, or the one who had it the worst. But that lack of good faith that used to be the exception really does feel like the norm now, and it makes interacting way more stressful than it ever was back then. You're expected to read novella-length DNIs and can't interact with or follow anyone without fearing that you missed one of your fandoms on their DNI list and will get shit for it.

(And those pages are often confusing to navigate and use hard-to-read colors, to boot. Seriously, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines should be mandatory reading for anyone making a Carrd or Rentry account)

And that's not even to mention the fear of what you say to someone in a private conversation getting twisted and shared and vagueposted about without your permission. That's something I've witnessed happen to multiple friends of mine. Again, isolated incidents back then, way more common than it should be now.

Meanwhile, *old woman voice* back in my day... What I always think back to was the really popular ask game that would go around, where you could ask whoever reblogged it to come up with headcanons for your F/Os. And people were sending each other asks left and right! People were excited to look up F/Os they'd never heard of to come up with a little pick-me-up for the person in their ask box! And I remember them being a blast to read and write!

Nowadays? If your F/Os are from sources that's not in the media zeitgeist or another limited set of perennial sources people will generally know enough to engage with... Good luck getting anyone to talk to you. (And that definitely goes double for anyone who ships with characters who aren't white men or isn't white themselves, that's a whole other issue that I've definitely experienced as a lesbian.)

I think it's both the growing atmosphere of hostility and social media in general's growing focus on "making content" and "branding" that keeps people from reaching out to each other unless they ship the same kinds of things they do. It's not really a community anymore. And that sucks, because that's a problem that's infected selfship spaces from the social media landscape as a whole

But I think we could still make the choice to see each other as people. Because, at the end of the day, selfshippers don't really have anywhere else to go. We're all just a bunch of people who carry love for characters in our hearts. Shouldn't we be willing to extend that love to each other, too?

(Obviously, this comes with caveats. I don't know if this is just me and my friends, but it also feels like we're all just too tired nowadays to reach out or meaningfully engage with other shippers' work. I'm definitely guilty of going MIA for long periods for that reason, so I'm not going to act like the lack of interaction with my blog specifically isn't my fault there. But in my experience I've seen a lot of that exhaustion come from this, from the walking on eggshells and the lack of reciprocity of the energy you put in, so it all still applies)

This is gonna be a LONG ass post but

I got around to watching Arcane s1 (I watched s2 without finishing s1 because I didn't want to worry about getting spoiled for all the stuff that will inevitably flood the league tags so I just said fuck it, I did know a little bit about what happened during s1) and now that I did, I think I like s2...less?

Like I thought I was confused while watching s2 because I skipped s1 so I might not have known about what was happening (And I did on some, like I didn't know Silco and Vander were close at one point when I saw the flashback with them and Felicia, or that Singed used to be a mentor for Viktor) but..no. Looking at s1 then back at s2 it really does feel night and day. I think the problem is that s1 is great in how down-to earth and realistic the world, the characters and problems they have, but then in s2, suddenly everything became so much more..bigger. And not in a good way. suddenly everything became so much more bloated with too many characters, conflicts that started/showed up that they needed to end in the same season cause they had to make it 2 seasons even though it could've benefitted from another one or at least anotehr act. The animation is great, the music is great, but even that just feels like well.. spectacle for the sake of it. Especially when it comes to the music, because compared to s1 and s2, s2 is just too music heavy. And I was watching s1 with my sister (who is blind reacting to all of arcane from the start) and I feel like if we finish s1 and get to s2 she might not think of it as good as s1 for the same reasons.

MORE IMPORTANTLY THO I realize how oddly ooc Jayce became from s1 to s2, mostly for his relationship between him and Mel that got sidelined in s2 for viktor. And apparently that was intended by the writers because they liked jayvik more (I used to watch Star vs the forces of evil so this is giving me serious flashbacks to the writers hell that became) Yes Jayce and Mel started off as more or less fuck buddies but there were scenes that showed that they cared about each other that they just..kinda threw away in favor of Jayik. I don't hate jayvik and I liked the memes and all but I also dont like just sidelining a woman (A black, woman no less) in favor of a yaoi ship in the grand year of 2024. Like knowing their relationship in s1 it makes me realize how ooc Jayce and Mel were acting towards each other in s2. I don’t care if they ended up canon or not, but they just acted toxic and indifferent to each other for no reason when they did have scwnes in s1 that showed they cared about each other and now I think they just did this just so they could make Jayvik look better and because of how Mel was done dirty despite me loving her character I am now actively going to ship Meljay out of spite (Also fuck you they both look sexy) (and I also like Viktor by himself away from Jayce, preferably him in s1 because of how cute he was and I want to keep him for myself)

For any arcane only fans, I happen to be a selfship/yumeship blog who's favorite charater happens to be in a really popular yaoi ship (made partially implied by canon and making him all thats ever used for when theres so much else that they can do with his lore instead of just making him an accessory to please fandom, huh doesn't that sound familar?) and I know people would hate on me for also being a girl "getting in the way" if i was in any other part of league fandom (at least tumblr is pretty chill) so don't worry we're at two for two here

Again, I like s2, I think they've done a great job but knowing what happened in s1 and then seeing s2 it just made me feel like there was so much missed potential outside of the already confusing plots and pacing issues I experienced on my first watching

and ykw Im gonna repeat what I said in a previous post in that; fuck yall, I wanted the Mel being pregnant rumors to be true just to spite yall (and that the kid would be Rell)

[darkship-selfship-confessions]

I wish the proselfship community was more creative. Most of the posts I see are like "oh an anti said x thing" or just talking about incest only. Meanwhile, antis posts are a lot more cool and creative, but I can't interact with them. When I finally see a nice post in the proship tag, it's usually written "stolen from an anti", this is quite sad.

ill skip queue to talk about this, because this pisses me off. i wholeheartedly agree, by the way.

i complain about antis a lot, sure, but pretty much my entire for you tab is filled with screenshots of antis accounts, poking fun at them (even if they are in the wrong), making fun of the shit antis say, talking constantly about how much we hate antis and how they ruin fandom, and its frustrating because, if you're going to complain about that, why don't you do anything about it? its just a constant stream of "I hate antis, I hate antis, I hate antis" without contributing anything to fandom even a little bit. i have this account which I use as my contribution to the selfship community.

and with the stealing posts, sure, sometimes its nice, especially if its from an account that's pretty popular, but its so frustrating because sometimes that's not all I want to see. and there's so many people that do that.

the proship community can be worse than antis sometimes. do you know how many antis I've scrolled through the blogs off that don't say a word about proshippers? and these are the people that make creative and fun posts too. do you know how many people I have on my blocklist that are proshippers that almost all they do is post about antis? i would wager that's harassment. just because you post something with a name blacked out doesn't mean you cant find those accounts in seconds. and I have, and I've seen proshippers on their accounts posting mean and rude things.

i hate antis, let me be clear about that. but over the last three or four years, I've started to grow so resentful towards this community because its FILLED with regurgitated discorse. its all we ever talk about anymore.

and this as well, i like incest as much as a lot of proshippers do, but there's recently been this wave of ppl either A) shitting on people who like darkships or B) shitting on people who don't. this community has become so split that its overwhelming sometimes. no one has to like darkship! and its tiring having the narrative of "either you like it or you don't and one of you is in the wrong" pushed as heavy as it has been recently.

because this isnt what proship is. if we really wanna be the good community that we can be, stop filling every stereotype that antis push on to us. try to make a space that people like to be in, stop bringing discourse into everything! "but antis do that-" yes! you are no better than them. id wager you're worse.

i am a proshipper through and through, but with the rape threat I got from another proshipper literally yesterday pretending to be an anti, coupled with all of this nonsense, sometimes I think about leaving.

SF Fandom Rant

CW: Half-Way Jokingly Unhinged Nerd Rage

EDIT: Just to clarify I was there when Adult Swim announced the festival and unveiled what it was going to look like before opening, I didn't get to go but I wish I did.

What kinda frustrates me is when some fans who think they've been in this fandom for long enough say some silly nonsense like "Oooh Pim is underrated or not as loved as the other main characters he needs more love (ToT)"....Meanwhile as someone who has obsessively-compulsively scurried in and out of EVERY SINGLE MAIN TAG FOR SMILING FRIENDS on almost all social media sites (plus countless YouTube comment sections and that WRETCHED troglodyte-ridden shitgutter known as Reddit) I can confirm that this entire fandom has always been overflowing with an endless supply of Pim fanworks, cosplays, getting shipped with Charlie and various other characters canon AND fanmade (plus quite a bit of selfshipping) or comments gushing about how cute and sweet he is...not to mention Charpim is obviously THE most popular ship in the fandom from what I've seen on A03! All the Pim fanworks and whatnot get a shit ton of attention too, they get TONS of likes and comments! Also on a sidenote, polls I've seen voting for one's favorite character, Pim is either second and in one or two cases, even first in Favorite Character polls while either Alan or Glep are at the bottom, not to say that either character mentioned are unpopular in fact FAR from it considering I spent so much time browsing fanworks for this show, trust me. Glep is a little meme machine and Alan is a he/him sapphic icon because of all the fangirls he has!

And furthermore, a testament to Pim's popularity being much bigger than one would expect is when I was there when Adult Swim's annual festival was unveiled to the masses on their socials and every single one of us online that day collectively losing our heads (hehe) over this lovely sight:

This image was spreading around like wildfire + the comment sections where mostly talking about Pim's bulbous, perfectly-round head.

"Underrated" my ass, Pim gets A TON of well-deserved love in this fandom, honestly you know who's the most underrated Smiling Friend? My baby girl Smormu where's all the cute Smormu fanart and fanfics you cowards!? I mean look at this lil' cutie go!

*slams fists on table dramatically* WHERE'S MY SMORMU CONTENT DAMMIT!?

*Nasally Laugh* Okay in all seriousness I know Smormu was made as a joke but can y'all stop making Pim out to be a forgotten/underrated character like he's some scrapped character from the pilot? There are plenty of unpopular/underrated characters on this show I can name on the back of my hand because I scrutinize every bit of trivia surrounding this show (like Zoey, Marge, Mr. Boss to some extent but less-so since S2, Jennifer, Desmond...) and Pim is NOT one of them! Thanks for coming to my TED talk, byeeee.

(PS. Be sure to check back on this lil ol' blog of mine for the latest chapter of my mushy Charpim fanfic dropping later tonight 😉)

[tvkissercentral]

I'm having some thoughts I'm struggling to articulate. So, excuse me if this comes out bad and jumbled, I'm in a bit of a state right now, especially since I am making a lot of these discoveries in a fragile emotional mood.

I think (more accurately, I have decided) I'm going to be distancing myself from Hazbin and HB in the future. Here's the thing, I try to be very open minded and, when someone is creating something that becomes widely popular with internet audiences, I prepare for fake BS and bad faith interpretations that I never want to judge a creator or their work for. I also try to be understanding of creator's with a large history on the internet cause yeah, I had terrible takes as a teen too, the important thing is correcting them in the present. I've never liked the creator or condoned a lot of her actions, but, finally being able to sort through the actual truthful allegations now that the shit storm has calmed down, her actions have crossed a line for me.

I am specifically talking about the transphobia directed towards transmen, which honestly to me justifies the discomfort I've felt for a while now about the creator's habit of making male characters with breasts but still insisting they're cis rather than just having a transman character, and the storyboarding incident. I understand and respect that, when it comes to the latter, everyone's perspective is going to be incredibly different. It personally makes me extremely uncomfortable, and I will only ever speak for myself on the matter. I've sat on the matter a lot myself, and there's no way I can spin it that makes me understanding of the situation, which should have never happened, in my opinion, and is made worse by the creator and the individual's tone deaf remarks on the situation.

No, this is not me trying to seem "high and mighty" compared to other Hazbin fans I'm close to. It is entirely up to other individuals whether they want to keep watching Hazbin or HB, and, though I will not continue to support the show or the creator, I still do plan to read and support the works of the fan writers I am currently following, along with still following the Hazbin selfshippers I know. I do genuinely think a lot of people are adding much needed nuance to some of the characters and ideas through their works, which is cool to see, and, at the current moment, this is not a "she who should not be named" type situation. Yes, I will keep my fics up for those who still want to read them, so no worries.

I rambled to get my thoughts down. So, what does this mean for this blog and my selfship with my main four bois? Well, here's the thing. With only season 1 out, my writer brain has created a lot of information about the characters that is just outright not canon. The canon versions of them aren't really my comfort characters, the versions I and other fans have made of them are. The same can be said about the world and how it operates, or more of struggling with dissatisfaction towards the canon system, and sprinkling my own little details in. Upon further thought, I have never liked canon/always felt strained by it, and it shows in my writing lol. I also have an S/I design I don't want to just throw into the dumpster. So, essentially what I want to do is take my "fanon" interpretations of these characters and turn them into OCs.

I just need to figure out:

How much to change.

What characters to convert and keep.

World details (probably something flexible and, since this is being done casually, nothing too extensive or amazing).

So on and so forth. Expect me to be looking over my fanfiction like a scholar trying to figure things out lol.

I know I may be the only one excited over breaking free like this (I am not excited for the reasons I have to), but I am and will enjoy my time making it so. Considering my grievances with the fandom I have spoken about before, and honestly V/ox's canon treatment, some of y'all can understand why. Please don't be a jackass about it. So yeah, just expect this blog to be a lot of thoughts about that going forward.

[selfshipsobbing]

Ok this might sound silly but almost everyone seems to have that one f/o who has a blog that's more popular than them in the selfship community and it's like ok block and move on

BUT WHAT THE HELL DO YOU DO WHEN A SELFSHIP IS POPULAR IN YOUR F/O'S FANDOM??? LIKE I CANT BLOCK PEOPLE THAT SUPPORT THEM BECAUSE THATS 90% OF THE FANDOM

I've been with him for almost 3 years, he is the love of my life, he is my heart. He quite literally kept me alive when I was in a deep depression, i fell in love and had a reason to continue because of him. But all the other selfshippers of him seem to see him as "babygirl failure!!!", just a quirky ADHD riddled character, a rowdy teen. He's an adult, he's my husband, a real person. Yet my selfship doesn't feel good enough even though I know almost for a fact I've been with him longer than anyone (I used to be ok with sharing and checked their blogs, most people who think they're "with" him gain him very recently, trust me I checked everywhere and im almost convinced I'm the first person ever to selfship with him ever since the pilot came out)

Please help, I can't tell people to stop but I don't want to block half of the fandom. Blocking doubles isn't enough anymore. I feel like I'm screaming into a void

★★★

[selfship-confession-box]

I tried sending this once and idk if it went thru ( if it did I'm so sorry i wasn't done typing and wanted to fix things ) or deleted because tumblr exploded and said "oops we cant handle ur post" pretty much. /gen

Anyway!!!

The Agere and Selfship community overlap in a way or at least share common problems that like.. i just need to say. I know i can help work on them but idk:

DRAMA. I don't care why kittybaby123 ( random user i made up if someone has this url dont harass them 😭 ) broke your boundaries, just block them. I don't care why selfshipperABC blocked you out of no where, keep it to yourself. I get its upsetting but sometimes theres just drama thats so dumb it would be better for everyone to either keep to themselves/friend groups privately or just block and move on.

Focusing on shipcourse rather than just blocking and moving on. Before i continue i am anti incest, romanticizing abuse etc and so on. But taking a screen shot and listing or showing all the gross fics or art pieces a proshipper did isn't helpful . It really isn't. Its still triggering to read that even with the CW / TW. Also its more petty online drama, just block and move on. I feel the same way when an Agere blog screenshots an ageplay blog. Like it really is triggering. And if you think you're helping kids your not, you're exposing them to discourse and the yucky things by listing them ( i can confirm most of my online trauma comes from ( uneducated or even just genuinely toxic ) antishippers who didn't tw or even if they did they still listed and showed graphic stuff. ( i want to be clear I am not a proshipper ).

Maybe its just me but i feel like f/m caregiving/regressor and f/m self ships get seen more therefore are more popular. Same with feminine / girly stuff. I LOVE WOMEN I WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU. But i just want to see more men, nonbinary, agender etc stuff or even f/f or m/m stuff.

Except for like five people or so it usually is so unwelcoming meaning either its toxic asf ( have deleted blogs to get away from both communities before ) or just self absorbed.

OUGH i know theres good stuff out in both I'm just kinda tired of no one saying it.

.

[zal-g0]

More silly stuff ( ≧∀≦)ノ

Can I just ramble and say I'm so excited for when these two get like . . Popular , n' ppl start making silly headcanons and stuff . I LIKE SEEING PPL INTERACT WITH MY OCS !! it's so cool and nice and it makes me feel good knowing my characters made an impact,,,, or maybe im crazy idk /j

But on the topic, I said this on CTM's blog but like, I don't really have too many boundaries when it comes to my characters . Maybe that's not too much of a good thing, but I prefer not limiting how people can enjoy my characters. I think the only rule is just. Don't ship weird age gaps. (Like Fainted x Fiend. Not only is it just . Really toxic, Fiend is kicking near 30s' while Fainted is 19. ) tldr: want to ship urself with fiend or lvsick ? go crazy . Want to ship fiend with one of ur ocs ? go crazy . Want to make (un)official ai chatbots of them ? go ahead king. . I'm pretty desensitized when it comes to all this , so again, there's no issues plus SELFSHIPPING IS AWESOME !!!!! ((o(^∇^)o))!!!!

[kalitheinksimp]

Commissions open!

Welcome to my blog

Hello!! I am Kali and/or Softy and go by she/her pronouns (though they/them is fine too)

I am a selfshiper and artist! I post mostly my self indulgent artworks.

So, here's some stuff about me~

So, first things first,

My very main F/o is Ink Sans!

I have loved that guy since a long time and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future

He's my first ever introduction to what loving someone is like, and also an emotional and mental support when there was none, so I'm a bit too... attached to him. Like alot.

Am I okay with sharing?

※this does not mean that I'm discouraging any canon x canon shippers or self shippers from making their content. It just means it's not my thing and would advise you to keep it to yourself with me, or block me if you make that stuff alot lol I'll appreciate it (also please use the right tags I'm begging please please please p)

It's gotten BAD bad 💀

I can't handle any ships of him with anyone anymore, if i block you, you might've shipped him with someone, no hard feelings really! It's been really hard to deal with it....

Do i have any other f/os?

Yep! Some other AU Sanses (like the most popular ones i think) but my feelings for them are VASTLY different than with Ink. For example, how I'm repulsed with anyone x Ink,I am not with others, and BARELY even mentioned them if ever.

I would even like to interact with those who ship themselves with a certain sans and have a repulsion towards canon x canon of them! (So as long as they're fine with it and are aware of other stuff down below-)

Oh and i also have some from other medias that I will not get into cause this blog ain't about that-

About me and content i post-

I mostly create artworks (mostly traditional sometimes digital) about my selfship, s/i lore(very tiny amount), ship children, and sometimes just random stuff

I have a few AUs that are all fully self indulgent stuff that i mostly keep to myself.... exept a couple... and some arts relating to them.

Main ones i post about are:

❣ main AU (consisting of Ink and Kali coexisting in the multiverse as a couple)

❣ family au (as a "what if they were actually married and had children" au

❣ "reverse herem" au (in which Kali basically lives with a bunch of sanses in a house in an abandoned au)

❣ aftermath au (in which i indulge in all sorts of delicious angst)

❣ yandere au/s ( for my yandere Ink fantasies where I take my Ink's already protective behaviour and turn it up to the max)

And i think that's about most of them. There's a few more sprinkled around but there really minor ones

Most importantly; the tag I use for selfship with Ink is "#Kaligraphy" and "#kalink" and for the whole family I use "#🌈garden🌺"

Boundaries and stuff

i know I can't exactly 100% regulate who interacts with my posts, but I will be setting boundaries as to what I'd not like to encounter, and will like to avoid.

❣ homophobia, transphobia, and basically any kind of queerphobia is not welcome

❣ harrasment and bullying also.

❣ supporting of irl crimes that hurt people or animals such as 1ncest, z00philia and/or p3doph1lia will NOT be tolerated

❣ am I proship or anti? Neither. Not pro, not anti, not neutral, I choose to not partake in this argument at all. because at this point it's no longer about having a "safe space". I have not felt safe picking a side so far, so I'm not going to. Hope that's understandable enough. (Just use tags appropriately and don't bring up any other ships than mine (Kali x Ink and occasionally Kali x other sanses/characters i like) on this blog and you're fine)

❣ extremely religious/traditional (in any religion/culture) people also are advised to not be on this blog since i don't really think this is gonna be a safe space for you- I'm kinda a satanist with religious trauma lol

❣ I will do my best to be as cooperative, agreeable and understanding with people, and like anyone else, I'll make mistakes too. So i hope you can be understanding as well if talking to me.

❣ this blog is expected to be 14+ atleast, and i will treat it as such.

❣ as you might already know, I'm a freak for yandere men and like the idea of Ink being an obsessed yan (though sometimes I tone it down) but if that makes you uncomfortable, this might not be the place for you. (Though, I will be using yandere tag on more outright yan stuff)

❣ we don't believe in cringe culture in this blog. Do what makes you happy as long as it doesn't hurt anyone lol

Extra links to my works:

❣ about the family au (intro to my two ship children of Kali x Ink)

❣ about Kali herself (aka my s/i)

❣ the flower sisters (ship children) arts i did

❣ more art of flower sisters (mom i frew up kinda vibes lmao)

❣ Peacock! Ink sans

❣ Snake/Naga! Ink sans

❣ Spider! Ink sans (this is the only one of him in digital- i have yet to decide colours)

❣ casual clothes i made for my selfship

❣ Nightmare sans x Kali varient (for personal "harem/comfort au")

❣ Fell/Red sans x Kali varient (same as previous)

❣ Kali's demon version

❣ Kali's demon DEER version

❣ my current pfp

Hard agree with the first reply to this ask

But my question is(directed towards anon): why do you have to change a character in order to relate to them.

Also it really seems like you are just trying to make it seem like I'm against such people. Or even the identies or traits themselves. Which shouldnt need explaining that i dont, but here we are, i dont have a fucking problem with people with any such identities, and appearances. I dont have a problem with characters having such identities and appearances.

The problem does not lie in what is changed or added, but instead WHY it is changed or added to an already established character.

What it sounds like is that you (gen) are unable to relate to anyone who is in anyway different to you, does not meet certain standards or requirements, or cant fit into a box that you are able to understand and comprehend.

Like.. its no different from cishet people going "oh i dont relate to this character cuz theyre gay or trans, or not a vsco girl" or smth like that, and then changing the character.

I get it. These kinds of people arent the most popular, and are very rare in media(though are actually becoming increasingly more common). So you think you need to change existing characters to relate to them or be seen and included.

And ... Idk how to explain how damaging that way of thinking and treating others that way is. And you cant tell me its just characters because ive seen how queer people treat cishet people and characters. Like they are somehow lesser or boring.

And i saw how some people commented on my usage of "woke" i realize now that may have made me seem like the kind of person who hates those things, but im not, and it was more towards... Like how so many people in fandom engage in performative activism. They do all this stuff for praise and to seem like a better person. Thats what i mean by woke if that makes sense.

Like honestly i think itd be way healthier to make ocs/self inserts and draw or write them with characters being supportive or just... Acting normally. Which is already a thing. The selfship community and ocxcanon community is very much alive and it doesnt even have to be ship. i guarantee more people, even people who dont relate, would enjoy people making and including more ocs in fandom.

Also "inflammatory language" (or just how i speak when annoyed i suppose) seems pretty on par for a blog dedicated to people complaining about fandom sooo, gotta remember im a real human writing this and not some machine that'll write everything in the best way possible.

Posting since this is a response to a previous ask.

[darkship-selfship-confessions]

i used to be a lot more of a "typical" selfshipper, but then i got distanced from selfshipping in a while. now it's back in a way that can't be described by any popular forms of attraction. (i wish i could find one of those attraction labels that describes me)

my f/os are muses to me, i want to draw them using my own blood. i would make a shrine for them if i could. for a specific one (and his au versions), it goes between that and wanting to be him. probably the result of my own delusions, but it doesn't matter hehe

i need to see them go through pains greater than what i did so that we can hold each other and become one. i can't ever put it into words.

[REDACTED USER] does have a guide on her blog about how to get blood to draw with, but it involves getting it from the inner elbow which i am squeamish about :(

(is ⚰️ anon available?)

yes

[crystallinestars]

Whoa, you don't like haikaveh/ratiorine too? Haha. Here, have a sincere handshake from me.

(I'm on anon because a lot of my friends ship BL ships including haikaveh and I guess I'm a coward, haha. It's already hard being a conservative in fandom, so I'm not going to look for more trouble. >_<)

I have to be honest, I was disheartened af whenever hoyo drops hints of haikaveh that even a relatively inexperienced, oblivious conservative like me can pick up... like nooooo 🥺 what will happen to my selfship then?? (This is a joke. Or maybe not.)

Joking aside, I'm so relieved to find I'm not alone in thinking that the fandom leans toward hypocritical when it comes to gay ships. Please, queer people don't exist for our entertainment. Calling for equality while saying "straight ships are boring, it's more interesting when it's gay" is like stabbing yourself in the back imo.

Lastly, I'm not very good at talking with people and I don't know if I'll send in another ask, but can I be the 🐻‍❄️ anon? :)

Wishing you a great day!! <3

Yes, you can be the 🐻‍❄️ anon! It’s perfectly ok to message me anonymously, there’s no shame in that. I’m lucky in that none of my friends are into BL, but your situation is more tricky, so I don’t blame you for wanting to be anonymous.

Mihoyo really ignores the self-shipping part of their fanbase. We’re just not worthwhile customers to them, I guess 🤷‍♀️

I feel like most regular people can tell the fandom is awful. A lot of Genshin players don’t interact with it and just peacefully play the game. Shipping parts of fandoms have deteriorated into toxicity a while ago, but it’s particularly bad with Mihoyo games because they’re so popular.

Lmao this blog is turning into an anti-BL/Mihoyo/Hoyoverse fandoms account. Not what I imagined I would get asks about, but I suppose we all just need someone to vent to who understands 😔

fic commissions sheet

I used to do trades but now I have ko-fi and paypal so!

HOW I WRITE

here are some examples of recent fics I've published if you want an idea of my style:

maxchela, angst, 404 words

gideon graves, angst, 1.2k words

bonsar, fluff, 1k words

I have written more fluff but I can't find it. and platonic fics, and smut but I'm not linking that here.

if you guys remember ye olde total drama fandom, I was tdfics. credibility! I also am currently the editor on a very popular fan season. you guys have probably heard of it if you follow me here.

WHAT I WRITE

for pairings:

fluff

angst, hurt/comfort, etc

any kind of au or trope you want*

smut**

platonic!

also:

character studies

x reader, self-insert, or selfship stuff*

OC stories

furry stuff

*given that it follows the guidelines

**given that both characters AND yourself are over 18 years of age and follows the guidelines

WHAT I DON'T WRITE

anything that involves pedophilia, incest, or graphic depictions of IPV

gratuitous amounts of gore

certain kinks (ask me about it)

rpf

anything bigoted

PRICING

500 words or less: $5

500-1k words: $10

1k - 1.5k words - $15

1.5k-2k words - $25

2k+ - ask

you can look up some references on what this amount would be like if you're not sure. the average one-shot (for me) is around 800 words. anything over around 1k requires more time and energy devoted to research, writing, and editing, which is why it's priced higher.

I'm up for negotiation based on what's up.

I only take PayPal. I have Ko-Fi as well, but that's also PayPal iirc

FANDOMS (??? I GUESS)

I made a carrd for it. here.

I still might be able to write something for a media I have never consumed, granted it:

is a movie

a short TV show/a specific episode(s) of a TV show

can be explained to me thoroughly

for example, if you wanted to request a ninjago fic, you could give me a few episodes to watch, and/or give me an explanation of everything I'd need to know (AKA free infodumping! bonus!)

I have the right to reject anything I can't or won't do.

anyway contact me through asks or DMs on this blog

idk if my other ask got sent or my wifi screwed me over but i love ur ykw selfships bc its motivating me to check up on my selfship blog that i made last year just so i could post abt an f/o i had from ykw so thanks for that!

it did send and sniffles, it was so sweet... thank you for telling me. i can also use this ask to tell everyone a funny story. i sometimes feel so unmotivated to talk about my ywk ships esp because i feel a bit different. i did for a second consider stopping and finding more "popular" f/os just to fit in better... but recently ive been able to interact and find more yw shippers so i am really happy. it makes me happy!! /gen
