#yes i am multishipper trash

[itsnotunfinisheditsmystyle]

Thanks for the tag @esssteee

1. How many works do you have on AO3? 44

2. What's your total A03 words count? 293,192

3. What fandoms do you write for? Right now Grishaverse, in the past also One Piece, Demon Slayer, Kuroko no Basuke, Assassination Classroom, Magi the Labyrinth of Magic, Hades (Video Game),

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Interrogation (Assassination Classroom, Karushuu) ; To Be Human (Demon Slayer, Renkaza) ; Through Time and Space (One Piece, gen) ; Midnight (Assassination Classroom, Karushuu) ; Maths (Assassination Classroom, Karushuu)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Not systematically, to be fair it depends a lot on my mood / energy level, and also if I feel like there's something to answer!

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I'd say it's definitely The monster is you, and I am your monster (warning: non con) where Nikolai after, well, you saw the warning, definitely loses his personhood and body to the nichevo'ya possessing him.

Although I think it's interesting to point out that the other two fics I have with angsty endings are Almost, where Nikolai nearly dies and thinks he's going to join Dominik but actually he is forced back to the world of the living by...Losing his personhood and body to the nichevo'ya possessing him. And Rot, where Nikolai deals with...The loss of his personhood and body to the nichevo'ya possessing him (through the power of a nice healthy wrist stroke).

There might be a pattern

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I got so many happy endings because I am a sucker so Imma say Afterglow (Nikolai/Alina/Aleksander/Zoya) where there's literally none of that war nonsense, just four happy people in love (and Nikolai does not have to deal with the loss of his personhood and body to the nichevo'ya not possessing him).

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not really, happened a few times in the past

9. Do you write smut? If so what kind?

I'd never write smut who do you think I am

(all kinds)

(except that one thing the darkolai server knows I'll never write)

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

When I was 11 I wrote a Shugo Chara X Fullmetal Alchemist cross over and also one of those multiverse High school settings fics and that was it for life

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Yes, in another life, on another fic website

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Also yes in another life, on another fic website

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

Yes, in another life, on another fic website, never again

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

Probably Darkolai, but also it's hard to pick, I'm pure multishipper trash

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I am delusional enough to believe I'm going to finish them all eventually

16. What are your writing strengths?

I like to think I have a good sense of humour and am good at characterisation

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Pacing, nice prose like the kind I love to read.

(respecting the deadlines I myself set)

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I have too much PTSD from all the pseudo French I see on this website, I will not inflict this upon anyone. Words peppered here and there ok but not dialogue.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Naruto.

I hadn't read Naruto. Or watched. Still haven't.

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

Ironically because I should really finish writing it, it's probably A Song of Thievery But also it's the closest to original writing I have, since let's face it I'm using characters who barely exist in the original universe. I guess I love my fanfics but I also like writing my own stuff lmao

(But also Théâtre d'Ombres remains my smut magnus opus)

Tagging:

Esteee literally already tagged all my mutuals.

Lacking suitable noises for a blushing sound in English, I went with the sound effect from manga used for blushing.

In case you haven’t noticed, I (Admin F) am a bit of a multishipper. While there are some pairings that I don’t ship, there’s quite a few that I do. Dexven is my go-to straight ship for Raven, and the fanfiction that I’m working on for EAH will feature Dexpid in later chapters. Seeing that I’m also poly trash and National Coming Out Day was last Tuesday, I figured this quote would be a great time to try my hand at some Dexven’s Arrows (which is now officially the name of that triad). Fun fact, originally Raven and Charlie’s positions were reversed, but I couldn’t get a good scene of Dexter and Charlie together so I switched the girls around.

Sexuality headcanon time (you’ve already seen Raven’s)!:

Dexter Charming: polyamorous binary alloheteroromantic binary alloheterosexual; moderately inflexible (low likelihood of attraction to male- and nonbinary-identifying). I view Dexter, like most if not all of the main guys in the cast, as straight given that he has few interactions with other guys that are ambiguously platonic (unlike many of the girls, who frequently do have quasi-romantic interactions with each other). However, I also view him and his siblings as polyamorous.

Chariclo Arganthone “Charlie” Cupid: polyamorous allopanromantic allopansexual; true (equal likelihood of attraction to male-, female- and nonbinary-identifying). As an incarnation of the Western world’s archetypal love god, and given the...nature of most Greek deities, I don’t think Charlie really cares all that much about the gender identity of a potential partner, nor how many she has. (Yes, I know that Eros was ironically one of the few gods who only had one confirmed partner, work with me here.)

Happy belated Coming Out Day!

1, 5, 7, and 8, you know what fandom we share. :)

hiiiii lazy!! thanks for asking me!! <3

1. A character I used to hate but have since warmed up to: idk if i ever like hated anyone (outside of like, of course, Mukotsu. duh). but the first time I watched IY I had such a hard time getting excited/interested in Kohaku. He felt bland and wet blanket sad to bby me (fr i was in middle school. I wanted to watch the hot angsty teen dog boys, not the pasty middle school kid who alternates between looking like someone is about to steal his lunch money and just like. total dissociation, lol). BUT BOY OH BOY. Upon more recent rewatches as an adult I'm just like BREAKING MY HEART over this sweet scared child who becomes a competent killing machine and his royally fucked up storyline. truly, whump. He's much more complex than I initially gave him credit for.

5. A character I love but everyone else hates: okay yes, people don't like actually hate him, really, he's literally in of one of the MOST popular fandom ships. But imo people tend to judge Miroku p hard. Like the pervert stuff, i get it, i know. I get that those aspects of him are flaws that turn people off. that's valid. Perhaps bc he's a pretty main character and he's fun to ship with Sango, people like him despite that, and so I see a lot of correcting/changing his behavior in fic to make him moral/good and less slimy. I do like those fics too, and i do some of this tweaking in my own writing too, ofc. but i think instead of liking Miroku in spite of his flaws, i love him because of them, which is sentiment i don't see as often? I LOVE that he's immoral, that he's a little trash slut (affectionate), that he's sneaky and vain, a conman running for his life and taking what he can get. Give me a Miroku who's in over his head and still asks for more. Give me a Miroku who's shallow and desperate, who knows but doesn't tell. Give me a Miroku who's fucked up.

To be more literal in terms of a character everyone hates, i also really love Naraku. I think most people hate him indiscriminately bc he so quickly goes from "intriguing villain with unique backstory" to "oh god no not the BeEs AgAiN" (bee's here being a equivalent to an overused plot mechanic and unnecessarily complicated objectives), but hey, the bees worked, right!! We all kept watching anyway!! Now there's a trash slut. Main character energy baby, always. Naraku's nastiness is selfish and overwrought in the anime, but also weirdly fascinating to me.

7. An unpopular ship I’ll nevertheless go down with I am a multishipper tried and true, I love to put everyone with anyone. Did two characters I like maybe interact once in a single episode of canon?? Did they appear next to each other for 3 seconds in one anime opening song?? if so, then there's a 95% chance I've thought about what it could be like if they fucked. It is what it is; I'm like this for literally every fandom i dabble in. The point of this is to say most of the ships i like to write are "unpopular" bc rare pair hell is a real place. We don't have cookies but we do have fluffy cheerleader pom poms for cheering on unusual content. In a fandom like Inuyasha, where nearly ALL fics fall within 2-4 main pairings, it's fun to flex those rare pair muscles more often for all the juicy possibilities of this wonderful world and it's wonderful characters. IY rare pairs ALWAYS need more love. I contain multitudes, okay? On that note, a list of unpopular/rare ships that currently have me in a chokehold, in no particular order: Kagura/Kikyou Inuyasha/Miroku Sesshomaru/Miroku Inuyasha/Miroku/Sango poly!

8. A fan favorite ship I just don’t get Okay i just ranted about being a multi-shipper, so this is actually sort of tough. Even if there are pairings i don't find particularly interesting/stimulating, i've probably read fic and enjoyed fic featuring it. If pushed, Koga/Kagome is a pretty popular ship I have to be in a very specific mood to enjoy. Not to say i wouldn't ever read it, but it's are a toughie.

Of course, now I'm challenging myself to think about it and i mean... well... it's not like his whole vibe isn't hot af....i COULD see it if....

*trundles off to muddle things over in multi-ship land*

20 Questions- writing edition!

Thank you thank you for the tag my dearest @mrfeenysmustache​ ♥️

1. How many works do you have on AO3? 94 (…whoa…)

2. What’s your total AO3 word count? 1,041,332 words! (but stories that I was one of the primary writers is 982,561 words, so I am not a million worder just yet)

3. How many fandoms have you written for, and what are they? Only 2! Inuyasha and Lord of the Rings (the book!)

4. What are your Top Five Fics by Kudos?

1) Stay With Me Until Sunrise 2) Last Train to Rockaway 3) Father’s Legacy and What Came After 4) The Beast in the Basement 5) The Right Wrong Number

All InuKag and many with smut, but not all!

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I do! Most of the time. It may take me a day or two, but I get to it. Only time I don’t is when someone is really hostile and I know responding won’t do much good.

6. What fic have you written with the angstiest ending? Ohhh that is definitely Kikyo’s Kill List. I challenged myself to do a couple of things I’d never done, and… it was a good ending for Kikyo, but angsty as all hell!

7. What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending? Oh man I love happy endings, but I think that the fairy tale we just finished, The One Who Speaks My Name, is probably the happiest happily ever after!

8. Do you write crossovers? If so, what is the craziest one you’ve written? I… do not! But I really want to! I think the best candidates at the moment are a Hogwarts AU with Inuyasha characters (and the Hogwarts professors), or possibly either Kamisama Kill or Demon Slayer and Inuyasha?

9. Have you ever received hate on a fic? Ohhh yes. Sometimes people have real strong opinions about how they expect a protagonist to behave, and if you don’t do it the way that they think it should be done, they need to tell you. Loudly. Meanly. Several times.

10. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? All sorts. I’ve done raunchy, BDSM, emotional feelz, abstract, all the things. But never-ever non-con. That is my NO.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Nothing outright plagiarized, so… good?

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? YES! Some wonderful people have translated a couple for me into Spanish! (They get my whole heart.)

13. Have you ever co written a fic before? YES! Because my loves @ruddcatha and @fawn-eyed-girl are the best, we’ve done multiple collaborations! They are hard. Because you need to match styles and plot and make things consistent. It’s a lot of work to do well.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship? InuKag! But I have so many ships I love though. True multishipper trash over here.

15. What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will? Oh man. I have a Lord of the Rings continuation fic plotted out, and am not sure I will ever return to let it see the light of day. But I have a rule: if I put a WiP out into the world, it will get finished.

16. What are your writing strengths? Plotting. And probably coming up with ideas and motivations and arcs. I love coming up with story ideas!

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Descriptiveness and detail where it’s necessary. Makes writing smut a <hit head against desk> endeavor.

18. What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? If you’re going to do it, make sure that you have checked that you’re saying things correctly. Fandoms are international spaces. If you are writing (just a little bit of) dialogue, usually someone is around who can check you’ve conjugated your verbs correctly.

19. What was the first fandom you wrote for? Lord of the Rings! Because Faramir and Éowyn are the BEST.

20. What’s your favorite fic you’ve written? That is probably The Portal Between Worlds. It needed good characterizations, careful plotting (and onion unpeeling), evolving relationships, and good action sequences. Basically a ton of things that were hard and were challenges, but I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out!

Tagging: Anyone! But please let me know if you play because I want to see your answers!

[dylanobrienisbatman]

13 and 19 for those shipping questions (yes… i scrolled all the way back, i love asking questions lol).

13. Most Shippable Character

I honestly am not sure about this one. I'd probably say Raven Reyes on first instinct, I guess? Like she could have been paired with pretty much anyone on the show and I would have liked it, she had great chemistry with everyone and her dynamics were always really well done, even if the show probably didn't actually put any effort into them? And honestly each season they put her with different characters and the dynamics were always shippable, Raven and Jasper, Raven and Luna (augh sea mechanic!! my beloved), Raven and Bellamy, Raven and Emori, Raven and Murphy, Raven and Echo, Raven and Zeke, they all really worked and could have been romantic easily! But at the same time, I think that comes more from Raven being an easy favourite and never getting a good love interest that stuck around. By the end I only wanted her to be with Zeke, because they worked and they were such a good pairing, but they killed him off so she ended up alone, and honestly... I'm fine with that considering there were like 8 people left alive at the end. Other than that I can't really think of any? I'm not NOT a multishipper, but i usually find pairings i like and stick to them.

Though I will say I've been watching Ragnarok and basically anyone could get with Fjor at this point and I'd be into it.

19. Ship that you never expected to ship

This one is easy lol, Becho! Going into S5 of t100 I was a hardcore bellarke shipper. I knew the show was going to either do Braven or Becho (i was pretty sure it was gonna be becho but w/e) and honestly i was kind of dreading it, partly because I wanted Bellarke to happen (lol imagine... im almost embarrassed tbh) and partly because i was worried the show was going to basically relive the finn/raven/clarke plot all over again and have it be a situation where the guy chooses Clarke over their long term girlfriend AGAIN and i was NOT here for that. But then... it worked? They didn't go that same route that they took in s1, they actually created an established, loving, supportive relationship and gave it the space to breath and find its footing. They loved each other, there was no question about that, which I think is a huge part of why Bellarke shippers lost their fucking marbles over Becho, because it wasn't framed as a fling, or a merely physical relationship, or a consolation prize for not having Clarke around, it was framed as a real, loving, committed mature relationship that had been hard earned through time and patience, growing into people who loved each other. And let me tell you, that shit works for me. I was already enjoying it a lot more than I expected too and then they dropped 506 and i was done for. It ended up being one of my favourite ships on the show, and it'll be an otp for me forever probably, which is in part because it was awesome and great and also because i never watched the absolute trash fire that is s6 and s7 aside from a couple becho and memori moments.

Rating Bandori Ships - Moca Edition:

Alright so as is probably obvious for anyone whose talked to me, I have a lot of opinions and I like to talk about my opinions. And one thing my poor multishipper heart has a lot of opinions on is Bandori ships because this fandom is either multiship heaven or hell depending on how you look at it.

So I decided 'hey why not pop off about them' so that's what I'm going to do startig with a certain Moca Aoba who I am totally not at all biased towards.

Obligatory reminder that these are just my opinions and this isn't meant as an attack on any ship. Not that I feel particularly negative towards any Moca ship I've seen yet but still.

Ratings:

MocaRan- 10/10

Yes I like the main arguably somewhat overrated Moca ship. What can I say? They have so much canon interaction between the two of them and their dynamic is really what got me started towards getting severely hooked on Bandori as I am now. They both are shown to care deeply for each other and seem to get the other on a really deep level. For Moca, Ran seems to bring out the most genuine shows of emotion out of her while also being a good support for her, if in a very Ran way. For Ran, Moca seems to help her take things a little less seriously, and when necessary acts as a shoulder to cry on. Sasquana broke me.

LisaMoca- 7/10

I enjoy this ship. As much as it seems to be just kind of a toss on to the people who ship YukiRan (which don't get me wrong is also a very great ship I have a thing for rivalries with tension) Lisa and Moca have a great dynamic. I tend to see it as a brOTP more often which is why I didn't give it a 9 or 10 but they definitely have potential and them kissing on company time would definitely catch my interest. They also seem like they'd be a really supportive relationship. Moca can help Lisa chill out and not be so hard on herself and Lisa can motivate Moca to do things.

MocaHima- 6/10

This is another situation where I have a harder time seeing it as anything but some very good platonic love. They have a dynamic together that is extremely fun don't get me wrong, but by that token I don't feel the same tension between them. Moca's teasing of Himari tends to feel like less flirting in disguise and more like the way she'd tease a sibling. Besides Himari clearly has a type and Idk how much Moca fits that. They are shown to care for each other quite a lot though and in a situation where they are plopped together romantically I can see them having a wholesome dynamic since they have such a good platonic base

SayoMoca- 9/10

I've seen this all of once that didn't involve the two of them in an OT3 with Tsugu, and honestly? I'm kinda there for both, but this is just about Sayo and Moca. Now this is mainly because grumpy x clown is my jam, I really don't know how much canon there actually is to go on here. I really like the idea of them both bonding over how ridiculous Yukina and Ran's posturing can be, Moca narrating every encounter like a sports commentator for fun with Sayo acting like she's ignoring it but quietly adding in her own remarks and Moca catching them. There's also potential in Lisa sorta shoving them together either to try to help motivate Moca or maybe to help Sayo with Hina in a way by giving her 'practice' with the other eccentric genius of Bandori. Either way there's a lot of ways to kickstart it but once it gets going I also think they would have a really good dynamic for somewhat similar reasons to LisaMoca with a side of it seeming similarly balanced to MocaRan.

HinaMoca- 8/10

I'm honestly not too sure why I jam with these guys together as much as I do but that doesn't stop me. One of them is enough to cause chaos so what happens when you put the both of them together? Also they would be the types to blast an extra bassboosted version of Megalovina or even just play it on guitar at their wedding if they even bothered to do something as traditional as that and I'd be there for it

ChisaMoca- 7/10

This is a ship I've been slowly warming up to so this rating is kinda subject to change. Initially I didn't understand it as they barely interact in canon and I didn't see much potential in their dynamic but the more I think on it the more there seems to be. This is mainly because, in one case a literal sense, both are actresses. Chisato literally but Moca definitely puts on her own acts and clown show. So the idea of the two being able to peek under the other's mask is kind of interesting to me. Also serious x clown will never not vibe

MisaMoca- 8/10

I don't ship this in a serious sense so I can't give it full marks but in comedy or crack, even crack taken seriously they are god tier. They're the types who would behave like an old married couple but somehow in a really chill low-energy way. There's a great fic that has them having an ironic candle-lit dinner date that sums up why pretty well I can link it if anyone sees this and wants it

TomoMoca- 6/10

Pretty much the same as HimaMoca except instead of Moca not being Tomoe's type it's more about how even if they did both have mutual feelings I have a hard time figuring out how they'd get together in the first place. Tomoe probably wouldn't realize her feelings even if she had them and Moca would do her best to bury them under humor and good ol emotional suppression. If they did manage to get together though I can see them being cute.

SaayaMoca- 5/10

I don't really feel much when it comes to this as a romantic ship. It's there I guess? I like these guys a lot platonically and don't have a reason to dislike it romantically but it doesn't really make me feel anything. There's potential but I just feel like on most fronts LisaMoca is superior.

MocaTsugu- 11/10

Probably my OTP for the fandom if I'm being honest and the fact that it's chronically underrated hurts. Don't get me wrong I adore MocaRan and SayoTsugu is also very good I've got nothing against the chocomints, but come on. The obvious name play is right there! In all seriousness though I love these guys both as a platonic and romantic pairing so much. It might just be me, but I swear it feels like every time Moca's ever actively suggested something Tsugu was the first to jump on the support train. Moca doesn't seem to really punch down with her teasing of Tsugu the same way she does with Himari and Ran either, and if I remember right there's been at least a few times it's seemed to border on flirting territory even when considering it's Moca. The two also have several of the things the other Moca ships have going for them but I think these two do it better. Tsugu being a gentle but consistent motivator who deeply cares for Moca gives me life. And Moca herself has potential to be a calming presence with her chill demeanor who could get Tsugu to take a break for once in her life like she deserves. I'm also absolute trash for the headcanon that Afterglow all took turns having crushes on Tsugu in middle school. I just like the idea that Moca never really got over that crush and it comes back in full force once they're in highschool. Pair that with some good Tsugu lacking self-worth angst and believing her feelings towards Moca aren't reciprocated because Moca clearly has a thing for Ran and even if she doesn't there's still no way she has feelings for her no matter how many times she calls her 'Tsugurific'.

And there ya go. This ended up way longer than I expected it to and tbh for most of them I have a lot more thoughts but I didn't want to turn this into a novel. Tldr MocaTsugu underrated and I have no life :')

[gingerwritess]

Hey there!! So I have 2 motives for dropping into your inbox! 1) (the more important one) YOURE SO AMAZING AND I LOVE YOUR WRITING AND YOURE JUST AWESOME. I hope you know that ❤️ aaaand 2) I know your requests are super full, so whenever you get to this is great, your writing is just so awesome and I wanted to ask if you’d be willing to do one with Loki and an insecure reader?? Anyways, hope you have a great week! Love ya!!!!

this is while you’re still kinda new to waking up next to loki. take that relationship status how you will ;)

ps thank you smsmsksjdjwhej sorry this took so long to answer!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

“You’re really pissing me off.”

Loki cracks an eye open. “…I beg your pardon?”

Sighing, you backhand his chest and roll onto your stomach next to his sleeping form, staring down at him. “I said you’re pissing me off.”

“I’m…sorry…?”

“Why are you so goddamn perfect?”

A laugh catches in his throat—that scared him. God forbid you ever wake him up with those words one day and actually mean them.

“It’s infuriating,” you grumble, poking a finger into his cheek. “We just woke up, for pete’s sake, can’t you at least have morning breath?”

“…who is Pete?”

Annoying little perfect prick. You let out a groan and drop your head onto his perfect chest, bringing up a hand to rest over one of his perfectly chiseled pecs. “No one, it’s an expression.”

Strong arms wind around your shoulders and you wiggle around a bit to get comfortable, eliciting the tiniest of groans from your godly pillow.

“I’m just really sick ‘n tired of waking up to the literal definition of perfection every morning,” you sigh, drumming distracted fingers on his chest, “when I have to look like a moldy piece of trash every morning.”

His hair is never frizzy, always sleek and shiny and perfectly wavy and luscious—bed head who? You don’t think he even knows what snoring is, or what drool is, and he never has that foggy half-asleep messiness about him.

Whereas when you wake up, mirrors crack.

And you’re fairly certain you could kill a man just by breathing in his direction before brushing your teeth.

“You do not look like a moldy piece of trash,” Loki laughs, tilting his chin down to press a kiss to the top of your head.

“I do too. Why do you even kiss me in the mornings?”

“Must be something inconsequential, like I love you or something.”

You glance up at him with a scowl.

Fuck, even from this angle? Where are his double chins???

“Fine, I love you too, but seriously.” You nuzzle back into his chest, subconsciously trying to hide your face from his adoring gaze. “How can you even stand to-to…you know.” A wave at your face. “Look at me?”

Loki’s brow knits together. You can’t possibly be serious, with these ridiculous concerns about what you look like first thing in the morning, right?

Maybe he shouldn’t laugh, judging from your serious silence and nose squishing against his chest. His heart flutters; you’re trying to hide in his embrace again.

A cool thumb strokes over the soft skin of your shoulder, steady and reassuring. “No words could begin to describe your beauty, fair maiden.”

“Ha ha, very funny—”

“Shh, let me finish.” His chuckle rattles your head on his chest. “You are the most beautiful creature I have had the pleasure of seeing, and I’ve seen many, many worlds in my lifetime.”

“Yeah, yeah, you’re supposed to say that,” you groan, absentmindedly running your hand up and down his torso. “It’s like, your job to say that. That’s like when a grandma says you’re pretty, it doesn’t count.”

Caught up in your insecurities, you miss just how much Loki is squirming under your distracted hands.

“B-but I mean every word,” he swears through gritted teeth. “You are stunning, simply ethereal, a goddess—oh, fuck, darling…”

Your nails barely scraped over his nipple and you don’t even notice his cursing or how his body jolts under you, too busy trying to point out your flaws.

“My hair is awful, Loki, it’s a freakin’ birds nest in the morning, and I drool in my sleep—there, I said it—and my body’s all lumpy, I’ve got rolls and cellulite for days, and—Loki!!”

He’s on top of you now, knees on either side of you and pinning your wrists next to your head. “How dare you,” he breathes, chest rising and falling rapidly. “How dare you speak of yourself in such a way?”

“It-it’s true,” you squeak—his eyes are flashing as he scowls down at you, almost scarily. “I’m not good enough for you, mister perfect.”

“Right…” The fingers around your wrists tighten.“I am the perfect one, of course.”

Loki seals your mouth with a searing kiss, burning hot and angry, and when he pulls away with a pop seconds later, he looks…different.

His hair is curly, tangled, sticking up in weird places, crumpled with sleep and messy—you bite back a shocked giggle. The eyes normally so crisp and striking first thing in the morning seem tired, a little puffy with leftover sleep and crinkling beautifully at the corners as he smiles down at you.

Those perfect eyebrows of his aren’t precisely shaped, his lips a tiny bit chapped, and he smells faintly of cotton and sleep and…you.

You’ve never wanted to hug him more than you do now.

“Loki…you look like you just woke up.” Pulling a hand out from his grip, you reach up to cradle his jaw with a grin, running your thumb across his lips. “It’s a good look. Refreshing.”

“Do you see now?” He smiles down at you, turning his head to press a kiss to your palm. “Don’t you dare hate yourself for being human. Every little thing that you hate about yourself, I get to love for the both of us.”

“You’re such a sap.” You pat his cheek with a grateful smile, laughing a little at his disheveled state. “Thanks for pretending to have bed head to make me feel better.”

His smile turns sheepish, embarrassed. “No, no, I’ve lied to you, my love.” He hangs his head in shame. “I’ve never wanted you to think of me as anything less than the best I could be, so…I lied to you.”

“Wait, wait, wait. You’ve been using an illusion every single morning??”

“…yes.”

“And here I am, getting all self-conscious about what I look like in the morning?”

The look in Loki’s eye is simply broken. “I am so, so sorry, I never should’ve—”

His voice dies out when you pull him down and firmly press your lips to his, knotting your fingers in his tangled, messy hair. “You’re so stupid,” you giggle, stealing another kiss. “We’re both so stupid.”

A cracked smile breaks out over his face and he rests his forehead on yours—he can’t help but agree with you.

“Let’s be ugly every morning together, okay?” You hug him close, burying your face in his wild hair.

“How about we be beautiful every morning together, instead?”

You laugh and kiss him again, and Loki sinks down to rest lightly on top of you, this time burying his face in the crook of your neck, not hesitating to plant a breathy kiss there, too.

“I’m still pissed off, though,” you murmur, gently stroking a hand through his hair.

“Why, my love?”

“You still taste like peppermint.”

My Salt

So I've noticed a lot of discourse in the salt tags, which I don't know what I expected, this fandom likes to make waves out of mere splashes. Which genuinely makes me sad, this is like the discourse of the ships and people dissing multishippers and sending hate, myself included has gotten hate, I don't pay them much attention, I usually just delete the asks and what not, that's just me though, others fight that hate. That's not neccessary a bad thing but other fans go for the mile when given an inch. They feed off the reactions they get.

I just want people to know that yes I am salty towards characters, and that salt will be written in some of my stories but I will always tag as ml salt so if you don't want to read that you can block that tag. I never really understood why people read something knowing it's going to piss them off. Like with Lukanette fans and Adrienette fans, which one side reads the other pairing knowing it's not the pairing they want and getting mad about it. It's the simple, don't like? Don't read rule. And I think that rule should also apply to salt fics.

There are many people who are expressing their hate of salt fans, which is why I debated writing it myself, I'm not someone who deals with hate well, it genuinely gets to me, but it is something I enjoy and I don't want to have to be afraid to express my likes or feelings for certain things. There are people I follow who don't like salt and that's all they've said! They didn't say how they hate the salt fandom or how they think the salt fandom is this or that, they simply stated it wasn't something they liked. I respect that, but I've seen people go off on them because of that simple statement. I don't think this is purely a salt fandom v. Anti-salt part of fandom, I think this is people starting arguements just for the sake of having an arguement.

My salt: I have a lot of salt towards the show but it is mainly because of the narrative and how characters are being written along with that narrative, that's where my main salt comes from. But I do have salt about characters and you know sometimes writing a salt fic is therapeutic. Because most fics tend to write out characters as having done nothing wrong or could never do anything wrong, the salt fics acknowledge the wrongs and the faults, and yes they exaggerate them, but it's just people working out their frustrations. And yet people are getting mad at them? People are allowed to get mad, to get sad, when characters they like get treated like trash or the writing of the character changes to something so put of character. But to bash them for writing out their frustrations and making what you find wrong with it into a much bigger issue is just flabbergasting.

Like most of the ml fanfic writing community likes to point out in fics: People are allowed their emotions, these fights are the akumas, but some people are purposefully going after them. Everyone needs to take a step back and realize that behind the screen is an actual human being you are arguing with, you are both hurting one another. I'm not saying don't speak your mind but think before you type, the amount of posts in the salt tag that are attacking salt fans is...it's sad, like it's making feel like a bad person for wanting to read it, but it's not going to stop me from reading or writing it, but it does frighten me.

Again, I will be writing salt and if that's something you don't like and you follow me, I will be tagging it as salt but if there is any other tag you want me to use so you can block please don't hesitate to tell me so I can use that tag, I don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable on my blog because I'm writing something that upsets them that can be avoided by a tag.

5, 8 and 17 for the fandom ask hun!

Thank you for the ask my dude! 🥺 lets get this going!!!

5: yes I am very much multishipper especially when it comes to NNT as NNT as a lot of characters and each of their “relationships” is so cute and beautiful I can’t help but love them. Plus wirh a lot of characters comes a lot of versality so there’s so many ships and I love it. As for other fandoms yes I ship a lot of people in them as well I never have just one ship with any anime/manga I always have many and I like it.

8: how many fandoms... TOO MANY!!!’ I’m in so many fandoms it’s crazy but that just means I love a lot of anime so it makes me happy. My favorite fandoms out of all of them would have to be NNT, Tokyo ghoul, Fairy tail, Pokemon, Gundam and many more!

11: most toxic experience in a fandom would have to be this summer in the NNT fandom. This summer was when the DK zel arc was going on and a lot of people didn’t like for one reason or another (which is fine they didn’t have to like it) however the hate got really bad (outside of tumblr) everyone was shitting on the manga not only for the arc but the manga as a whole and as someone who really loves NNT This hurt to see because they were hating on soemthing I loved. Comments ranged from this is trash, your blind and have no brain if you like this still, you’re bias if you like it, you have no taste in manga if you like this etc and normally this wouldn’t have affected me but it was always after every chapter I would always see stuff like that. People were dropping the manga because of it. Even one of my close friends who really liked the series started to shit on it and call it trash and say I was basis for liking it and defending it. A lot of my other friends were also slowly leaving the fandom and moving on. It became hell for me as it felt like a sin itself to like NNT. I made me feel like I was stupid for loving it as much as I did and it really affected me so much I couldn’t enjoy chapters like I did before because of it. Hell I didn’t even wanna post about them on tumblr anymore because of it (I did still but it wasn’t the same) but I pushed through but my posts didn’t feel the same as before it felt like a burden to post about them. My blog is my therapy and having it feel like that fucking sucked. I felt alone I felt like I was the only one who still loved the manga (I wasn’t obviously but it felt like I was) all my friends were leaving and I couldn’t talk about the chapters with them anymore. I had no one and I was alone. It was so hard to keep going I didn’t want to anymore I wanted to drop it all. It made me so fucking depressed and sad I no longer loved NNT like I had before my love changed... it changed into something dark and I hated it but I couldn’t change it I didn’t know how or who to turn to and it would’ve stayed like that If I hadn’t found people in the fandom they made me happy and want to continue. and I’m so happy and grateful i did because slowly it got better and I started to make more friends in the fandom who actually enjoyed it and shared the same love I did. I didn’t feel alone anymore I felt like I was finally understood and it made reallly happy. I felt more motivated and more excited for when chapters dropped. If I had dropped NNT I don’t know where I would be and I’m so fucking happy I didn’t as I’m in a better place now (mentally and fandom wise) tumblr made me feel like I belonged and I was so grateful for that. I love NNT with my very being and that will never change. Because of that experience I got more involved in the fandom and I started to be more creative and i loved it and I still do. So while that almost killed my love for the series it also gave me a reason to get more involved in it and I learned that my opinions do matter and my posts are good and people love them. I wouldn’t change anything I went through as it changed me for the worst and better. And I’m grateful.

@fallynleaf​ tagged me in a “get to know you better” meme so here it goes

top three ships: This is hard because I am an inveterate multishipper and I’m not currently into any specific shippy stuff. My old holdout is McShep from SGA. Right now I’m still very much in the trenches of Boku no Hero Academia fandom and I’ll be clear with you, the fandom is an absolute shitshow and cesspool of rudeness so just typing this very well may get me death threats but I totally ship Bakudeku, although I also am cool with practically every other ship out there (and there are a LOT). Okay now that I’m mulling it over I still have a lot of feelings about Ron/Hermione, which is very boring old lady of me but whatchagonnado, and besides, my other HP ship is Snarry so there’s your real “getting to know me better” factoid. I have a real thing for best friends who snark at each other and then fall in love with lots of friction along the way. 

last movie: I rarely watch movies these days. A while ago I saw the theatrical rerelease of Princess Mononoke and it was as mind blowingly gorgeous as I remembered.

lipstick or chapstick: lipstick but only rarely, when I need to do Real Human drag. I’ve got this fancy lip mask stuff that I put on but it’s nothing like chapstick and also I have no idea if it does anything other than make my mouth sticky when I go to bed.

watching: oddly enough, Frasier. It’s my comfort show apparently, I watch it about once a decade it seems. Turns out I’m damn near Niles-kin. I just watched the episode where it’s revealed that neither Crane brother can ride a bicycle and I’m like, IT ME

last song: Uyama Hiroto’s Into the Freedom, I’m very much into freeform contemporary jazz these days. BUT ALSO, TONIGHT!!!! I’ll be going to the opera! So by the time anybody probably reads this my last song will have been the entirety of Tchaikovsky’s Eugene Onegin. It is by all accounts extremely russian. I’m not the hugest fan of Tchaikovsky’s music; it strikes me as bombastic in a formulaic way, but I acknowledge that this is my modern sensibilities at play. At one level of remove, his work is a fascinating interplay of the cultural influences of his time period and place between east and west, conservative and liberal, old and new.

reading: FANFICTION. Right now as I said I’m deep in the trenches of Boku no Hero Academia fandom; I’ve got like thirty tabs open in another window. I will not be reccing any because tbqh it’s mostly trash and the good stuff is easy to find by sorting AO3 by kudos. But my brains does what it wants, I guess. Mostly it wants to read about All Might living with chronic pain and Bakugou getting roasted into being a better person.

playing: I recently played and beat Link’s Awakening and now I’m on a big Zelda kick again. I think I’m going to try playing ye olde Link to the Past, even though I am righteously terrible at older videogames. I also regularly play Gloomhaven most Saturday nights, which is an enormous board game if you didn’t know. I play a Quatryl Tinkerer named Bosch, they’re nonbinary and I named them after hieronymus bosch because when I first looked at the illustration I thought they looked a little bit like a ninja turtle gone terribly wrong so I was like “master painters, but much weirder...”  

tag 9 people: (if you wanna do it please consider yourself tagged) @splitredglove @nonasuch @mere-vanilla @wexlermendelssohn @cosmoscrusher @twiggymcbones @gravityeyelids @xavixavxav @221b-bakerstreet-camelot

Dance With Me?

A/N: The other day I got an ask about this universe, and it sparked my creativity! So here’s another installment, and a new fusion that I’m super excited to introduce to y’all! Also I really love writing in this universe, it gives me a chance to show how much multishipper trash I am. Enjoy!

Masterpost

Warnings (let me know if there’s anything I should add!): Deceit, implied/refrenced NSFW (blink and you’ll miss it), flirting, self-deprecation, anxious thoughts

Through fusion, Roman had come to realize something. He was completely, totally, utterly in love. And not just with one person, either. He was in love with all of them: Logan, Patton, and Virgil. Whether he was part of Amor with Patton, or if he was just himself, he loved them all dearly. The only problem was, he didn’t quite know what to do about it. So far, all he had been doing was fusing and deflecting. Unfortunately, the only one he had been fusing with was Patton, and not that he didn’t love Patton, but he was curious as to what it would be like fusing with the others. But Virgil seemed rather averse to fusing, and Logan was, well, Logan. So Roman was left moping, wandering around the mindscape and unsure of what to do.

An agonized, frustrated sigh came from Logan’s room. Roman paused by his door, unsure if he heard correctly. His hand hovered by the door, uncertain if he should knock or not. He lowered his hands, and fidgeted with his princely attire, before raising his hand once again to knock.

“Roman, do come in. I can practically hear you internally debating on whether or not you should knock,” Logan’s voice came, before he even had the chance to knock. Roman chuckled to himself, and opened the door to Logan’s room. Logan was sitting at his desk, notes strewn all over. He had clearly been running his hands through his hair, as it was a ruffled mess. Which honestly, was quite an adorable look on the logical side.

“What’s the matter, specs? You seem a little… frazzled,” Roman commented, walking over and plopping himself on top of Logan’s desk. Papers fluttered off of the desk, earning Roman an exasperated glare from Logan.

“This whole fusion thing has me a bit… frustrated. I wish to learn more, but Virgil isn’t too keen on fusing, and I feel like I’m invading Amor’s privacy,” Logan sighed. A smile crept over Roman’s face, and he hopped off of Logan’s desk, holding out a hand to him.

“Dance with me?” he asked softly, a warm and inviting look in his eyes. Logan flushed slightly, fidgeting with his glasses.

“I… Roman, what-” Logan stuttered. Roman reached out and took Logan’s hand, pulling him up to his feet and causing a small yelp to escape his lips.

“You’re so cute when you’re flustered,” Roman teased, guiding Logan to the center of the room.

“Roman, I hardly see how this will help. Besides, I’m not a dancer,” Logan protested. Roman simply smiled, and snapped his fingers. Soft classical music began to play, and Logan’s brow furrowed in confusion.

“How did you do that, this is my room,” Logan frowned.

“Guess you subconsciously want to dance,” Roman shrugged. He took Logan’s other hand, and brought it up to rest on his shoulder. He kept his other hand clasped with Logan’s, while his now free hand rested on Logan’s lower back. Roman began to gently sway to the music, taking Logan along with him.

“I still don’t see how this is going to help,” Logan huffed.

“You’re too uptight! I think you need to loosen up a bit,” Roman replied, grinning cheekily. He tugged Logan closer to him, gently twirling the both of them. Logan clung to Roman, thrown a bit off balance by the sudden movement.

“A little warning, next time?” Logan muttered.

“Oh? So you wouldn’t object to doing it again?” Roman teased. Logan rolled his eyes.

“You are insufferable,” Logan replied, though a small smile had slipped onto his face. Roman chuckled warmly, the sound reverberating in his chest. Logan began to slowly move along with Roman, instead of being tugged along by him, and Roman’s heart swelled at the realization. Roman pulled him closer still, pleasantly surprised when Logan melted into the touch and willingly moved closer.

A soft glow slowly began to envelop the two of them, and soon the light had grown to fill the whole room. When the light cleared, the room had changed drastically, and Roman and Logan were no longer there. Instead there was just one man, still swaying and twirling to the soft classical music. The fusion opened his eyes, suddenly realizing he wasn’t two people anymore. He glanced around, taking in the room around him. It now resembled a mad scientist’s laboratory, with lab tables cluttered with beakers and various scientific instruments. There was one table in the center that was free of clutter, and just beyond that was a large mirror hanging on the wall. The fusion rushed over to it, eager to take in his appearance. He wore a white lab coat over a dark blue dress shirt, black dress pants, and brown dress shoes. He also wore a deep red tie, and a pair of red lab goggles were propped up on his head.

“Oh, hel-lo there,” he murmured appreciatively. He turned from side to side, taking in his full appearance. After a moment or two of examining his reflection, he stepped away from the mirror and looked around his lab.

“Well, first day of being me, what should I do?” he wondered aloud, rubbing his hands together excitedly. He stepped over to one of the lab tables, but suddenly froze in his tracks, his face lighting up.

“Wait, I need to tell the others!” he cried, darting to the door and rushing out into the hallway. His excited demeanor quickly deflated when at first glance, no one was out in the hallway. However, once he turned around, he saw a lone figure wearing headphones walking down the hall.

“Virgil!” the fusion cried out. The side in question jumped, tearing his headphones off and turning to glare at him.

“Roman, what the- wait,” Virgil frowned, squinting at the man in front of him. The fusion merely smirked expectantly at him.

“Oh for fuck’s sake. How on earth did Roman convince Logan to fuse?” Virgil scoffed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

“I- actually, I believe this was an accident. Logan was frustrated, Roman was flirtatious, they danced, and bam! I’m here, gracing you with my glorious presence,” he explained, hands gesturing wildly.

“Wonderful. You got a name?” Virgil muttered. The fusion’s eyes grew wide, and a contemplative look came over his face.

“Hmm… I believe my name is… Favian! Yes, truly a fitting name! After all, it means ‘man of wisdom’ and ‘brave’, which fits me quite well,” he proudly proclaimed.

“Well Favian, it’s good to meet you, I guess,” Virgil said, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.

“It is quite wonderful to meet you as well, Virgil,” Favian replied, his tone cool and… sultry?

“I- uh, yeah. You know, I bet you wanna meet Patton- er, well I guess you technically already know him cause Roman and Logan know him but-”

“Well I see that there’s not a new fusion,” a cold voice interrupted from behind Virgil, causing him to jump and let out a shout of surprise. He whirled around and scowled at Deceit.

“If everyone could stop giving me a heart attack today, that would be fantastic,” Virgil huffed. Deceit opened his mouth to retort something, but Favian leapt in front of Virgil and stared him down.

“Not another word, Deceit,” Favian growled, and tried to summon Roman’s sword. However, what he instead got was a small silver object with a glowing blue light at the end. He frowned, inspecting the object in his hand.

“Is that-”

“It’s a sonic screwdriver!” Favian exclaimed, cutting Virgil off. He tossed the sonic up, watching it flip in midair before he caught it again. Deceit frowned, and tried once again to say something, but Favian cut him off again.

“I was expecting maybe a high-tech or sci-fi sword of some sort, but this is so much better! I’m just like the Doctor! Which means Virgil is my lovely companion, and you… hmm. Not a Dalek or Cyberman, both of those things are far too methodical, and you, my good sir, do not follow any sort of logic,” Favian rambled, twirling the sonic between his fingers as he talked.

“Don’t shut up,” Deceit hissed.

“Gladly. Perhaps a weeping angel? You’re certainly creepy enough…” he continued, trailing off when Deceit growled at him.

“You’re not annoying, and this fusion will last. After all, Logan and Roman are so similar and get along so well,” Deceit snapped. Favian’s brow furrowed, and he glared at Deceit.

“Oh no you don’t, I know what you’re trying to do. You’re trying to make me unstable, like you did to Amor! But it’s not going to work, because I like being me, fiend!” Favian declared, jabbing his finger into Deceit’s face. However, doing so caused him to unintentionally poke his scaly cheek. Deceit jumped back, hissing at the lab coat-clad fusion. Favian looked surprised for a moment, but then raised an eyebrow, grinning.

“Your scales are not quite the texture I expected… what do you do to keep them so smooth? Is there moisturizer for scales? Are there other snake-like qualities you have? Open your mouth for me, would you?” Favian rambled, creeping closer to him. Deceit started to edge away, looking quite like a startled cat.

“I- uh- have very important things to do,” Deceit squeaked. Virgil smirked at Deceit’s sudden attitude change, earning a glare from the snake-like side.

“Well, ordinarily I would let you go, but everything you say is a lie, Deceit. Which means you don’t have anything better to do,” Favian replied before Deceit could say anything else. Virgil let out a slight chuckle at that, and Favian beamed.

“Do keep laughing, don’t help me!” Deceit hissed.

“Whatever you say, Deceit,” Virgil laughed, giving an exaggerated shrug. Deceit growled in frustration, and with a snap of his fingers, he was gone.

“Aww, I wanted to see if he had fangs or a forked tongue! I also was curious about something else, did you know that snakes have a double-”

“Don’t finish that sentence!” Virgil exclaimed.

“But I just want to know if Deceit has-” “No, I know where this is going, stop it. He may be an asshole-”

“Understatement,” Favian muttered.

“But that doesn’t mean we need to invade his privacy, alright dude?” Virgil scolded, raising an eyebrow expectantly. Favian let out a long sigh.

“Fiiine, I’ll leave him alone. But I wanted to do something exciting! Something science-y, something adventurous!��� Favian exclaimed. Virgil huffed out a laugh, shaking his head.

“Not everything has to be an adventure, you know. Sometimes it’s nice to just… I don’t know, chill or whatever,” Virgil pointed out with a soft smile. Favian was silent for a moment, pondering over what Virgil had said. He twirled his sonic between his fingers, watching its movements before glancing back at Virgil. The anxious side still had that rare soft smile on his face, and the sight of it made Favian’s heart rate accelerate.

“What? Why are you looking at me like that?” Virgil demanded, the smile slipping off of his face and a scowl replacing it. Favian deflated slightly, ceasing his fiddling with his sonic and tucking it into his lab coat pocket.

“My apologies. I’m afraid I got distracted,” he admitted sheepishly.

“Nah it’s cool, you just kinda freaked me out for a sec there,” Virgil replied, the corner of his mouth quirking up in a half smile.

“Why don’t you smile more?” Favian blurted. Virgil froze, and instantly the fusion was mortified at the words that had escaped his mouth.

“I… um-”

“I’m sorry, just ignore me. That was a foolish thing to say, I wasn’t thinking. I’ll leave you alone now, it’s clear I have only been a bother,” Favian cut Virgil off, and turned to walk back into his room. However, he was halted by a hand on his arm. He turned back around to see Virgil with a conflicted expression on his face.

“Hey, I get it. Logan’s curiosity combined with Roman’s lack of a filter can cause a bit of an issue. That doesn’t make you an idiot. And… to answer your question…” Virgil pauses for a moment, taking a shaky breath. “I’m Anxiety, Favian. Positivity is pretty hard to come by.”

“Don’t let Patton hear you talk like that,” Favian muttered. Virgil let out a light chuckle, and a small smile slipped onto Favian’s face at the sound.

“Hey now, that wasn’t a laugh or anything relating to a smile. That was just me… breathing,” Virgil snarked when he saw Favian’s smile.

“Oh? Well, such erratic breathing habits cannot be healthy… perhaps some tests are in order?” he asked with a teasing lilt. Virgil rolled his eyes.

“Nothing stops you, huh? I think I’ll pass, Favian. But one last thing,” Virgil said, his tone turning serious.

“Yes?” Favian replied, his voice trembling slightly.

“You’re not an idiot, or a fool, or anything like that. Sure, you blurt things out and are a little eccentric, but you’re clever and witty too. You got Deceit to go away by talking him to death so that he couldn’t get a word in edgewise. I know I wouldn’t have been able to think of that,” Virgil said, his voice firm yet comforting. Favian’s eyes widened, and his cheeks flushed slightly.

“Thank you, Virgil,” he said softly. He stepped forward, almost involuntarily, and reached out to place a hand on Virgil’s shoulder. A blush crept onto Virgil’s face, but he didn’t break away from the contact.

“You’re- uh- you’re welcome,” Virgil breathed. Their faces were now mere inches apart, and Favian leaned in to place a kiss on Virgil’s cheek. It was a brief brush of the lips against Virgil’s face, but the action made Virgil’s blush grow deeper nonetheless.

“Thank you,” Favian whispered again, then pulled away from Virgil. He spun on his heel, walking back to his room and leaving Virgil standing in the hall.

Virgil watched Favian walk back into his room. Part of him wanted to rush over and demand answers, but the rest of him was too busy replaying that moment over and over again in his head. Favian had kissed him. Well, not really kiss him, more of a feather-light touch of his lips on Virgil’s cheek, but he had kissed him. What did that mean? Did Logan like Virgil? Did Roman like Virgil? Did both of them like him? And why was there a part of Virgil that wondered what it would be like if Favian kissed him again, really kissed him?

The anxious side buried his face in his hands with a groan. In any case, he had to talk to someone about this. So Virgil brought his face up from his hands, and turned to walk down the hall. Time to find his best friend.

[magsdomino]

Legend of Zelda for the ask meme. Which ever game/timeline you feel like.

One of my earliest fandom that I recall. He'll yes. Let's go. I decided to pull from the entire series

1. First Character I fell in love with? Define love because as a kid, I had a crush on Ruto, even with her hoity toity tsundere personality. I was young back then so I can't recall that much from those days though. Needless to say, that fish live has carried on to this day. I am scaly trash and proud of it.

2. A character I never expected to love as much as I do now: I wouldn't say I love him...but Beedle is a good boy and deserves love.

3. A character others love that I don't...hmmm. That is harder for me. Can't really think of one. I used to not be as big a Midna fan as some folks but I can't say that has remained the case. I hated Mido from oot but he isn't super popular. WAIT! I got one. Never played his games do I don't give a fuck about Vaati.

4. Again, this is tough as many characters I love don't get a lot of hate. I do think Navi got too bad a rap. Looking back though, I think the King if Red Lions got a bit too much hate. I liked dad boat.

5. I used to love Fabio from Link Between Worlds but I think that was mostly from my one ex. I don't hate the character but I don't have as much attachment now.

6. Too many to mention because I am a thirsty bitch...but if I had to pick one, it would be Bombchu Bowling girl. I have a weakness for girls with short hair.

7. Impa in any of her incarnations is kind if cool. I wouldn't mind being like her. I feel saying Link is cheating as he is literally the link between the game world and the player. Still I would like to have done of the courage inherent in him throughout every incarnation.

8. Similar to the kiss question, I have a list. I would probably slap Malo but that would be child abuse...stupid capitalist toddler.

9. Yet again, I have a list. I am a multishipper after All. I tend to have one main ship per game. Currently though, my favorite Zelda ship is Linpaya. I just think it is cute. Million is close behind

10. That one hylian dude and Finley or whatever her name is. That sidequest took years off my life. Also it can depend I guess but overall, not a huge fan of Zelgan. ESPECIALLY not with the oot versions.

Grelle and L Lawliet? =)

For the multishipper challenge (which two characters do I ship with them?)

Grelle

Grelle x Sebastian Michaelis (Sebagrelle, “red and black”)

As you can probably figure out after spending two minutes on my blog, I am extremely passionate about Sebagrelle. In fact, it’s among my most cherished OTPs in any fandom. While I do believe that certain aspects of their personalities would need to be tweaked in order for the relationship to work (i.e. Sebastian would need to be capable of empathy, while Grelle would need to learn to respect others’ boundaries), I am convinced that this pairing is a goldmine of untapped potential. At their core, these two actually have quite a bit in common. Both are inexorably drawn to beauty, but each also possesses a wild ferocity and considerable skill in combat. I also see both of them as individuals who don’t quite fit in with their surroundings– Grelle’s a trans woman whose identity is not respected or even acknowledged by her peers, while Sebastian is a demon masquerading among mortals (and I headcanon that other demons tend to view Sebastian as an oddity due to the fact that he’s an aesthete with an inordinate fondness for cats). Their personalities also complement each other quite nicely. Grelle is sassy, vivacious, and outspoken, while Bassy is more elegant and subdued. I headcanon that Sebastian himself is genderfluid, so I could see him eventually accepting Grelle’s womanhood more readily than the other characters in the series– and that is something she desperately needs. Add the fact that their relationship would likely constitute a forbidden romance (given that demons and reapers are by their very nature at odds with one another), and you have the essential ingredients for a lovely pairing.

Grelle x Madame Red (Redcliff, “the fire and the flame” [yes, I’m that extra])

I readily admit, that, in canon, Grelle is only romantically attracted to men. As such, I don’t believe her actual relationship with Madame Red was ever sexual in nature. However, because I’m gay trash for this woman and lover her to pieces for certain reasons, I enjoy pretending that she’s bi. If that was the case, and assuming that Madame Red was also bi, this could be a delightful wlw OTP. Both ladies love red and have an impeccable sense of style, both excel in their respective professions, neither shies away from violence/breaking the rules, both are passionate individuals, etc. Just imagining them doing one another’s makeup (or Madame Red sharing her dresses with Grelle) is enough to make my bi little heart go doki-doki. And, in some AU. I love the thought of them as happily wedded wives with an adorable foster daughter or two. :D

L Lawliet

L x Naomi Misora (Lawmassacre)

I’ve gushed about this OTP in a couple of previous asks (check out the “l x naomi” tag on my blog), but I consider Lawmassacre to be an awesome yet criminally underrated ship. Besides the superficial appeal (both L and Naomi are pretty people), I see them as the ultimate power couple: Two highly intelligent, dangerous individuals serving the cause of justice, even if their underlying motives differ. With her practical attitude and kind heart, Naomi would be a good influence on L, while the froggy detective would value her worth as an agent. I could see him coming to rely on her as his right-hand woman/personal field operative. King and queen!

L x Wedy (Wedlaw? lol)

This is even more of a Death Note rarepair than Lawmassacre, but it’s grown on me. L and Wedy are both cunning, ruthless, and not afraid to resort to shady tactics in order to get what they want. I headcanon that Wedy was the person who taught L how to pick pockets, that, along with Aiber, she played an instrumental role in L’s victory in the “detective war” against Coil and Deneuve, and that L lost his v-card to her. ;) I see the relationship as an intermittent affair that the two rekindled whenever L called Wedy in for assistance with cases, and that, while not soulmates, both developed feelings for each other.

Thanks so much for the ask!

   My current otp is without a doubt Face/Ton, but like. I am also unashamedly multishipper trash. I’ve managed to get excited about a new dumpster fire?

   I was trying to get my thoughts down on the scant few interactions Ton Phanan and Falynn Sandskimmer have in Wraith Squadron. She’s one of the few people in the squadron (besides Face and Tyria) who ever refers to him by his given name instead of by his surname, and that seems significant to me?

   This happens only one time, when everyone is giving her shit about her crush on Myn Donos, and Ton says something insensitive and stupid. She snaps at him about how Myn is a better man than he’ll ever be, but she uses his first name when she’s dressing him down. Just to provide the receipts, have some screenshots of the exchange:

And then: 

(Wraith Squadron, the end of chapter 7)

The rest of my thoughts under the cut, so I don't clog up your dashes...

   So even when she’s angry with Ton, she’s speaking to him more familiarly than everyone except his best friend (Face) and a woman he’s clearly expressed interest in (Tyria) are wont to do. That suggests that they might have a certain friendliness and camaraderie under better circumstances. 

   Yes, Falynn is prideful and easily offended, and Ton tends toward being a sarcastic bastard, but I think they could have their good moments together. There’s the possibility they could have become good friends, given enough time. The friendship could have been good for both of them, too.

   What I think would have ended up as a dumpster fire would have been a romantic relationship between them. Sweeping aside certain plot events, their particular issues would have complimented each other in truly horrible ways. Falynn thinks she’s second best at everything she does, and suffers from feelings of inadequacy. Ton, on the other hand, thinks he’s ugly and a shell of who he once was. He’s filled with self-loathing. Put these two broken people together and it would turn out poorly.

   Imagine Falynn being around to see Myn go from being emotionally closed off to mooning over Lara Notsil. Once again, she would feel like she was second best. Given her angry, prideful nature, I could see her trying to stick it to Myn out of revenge. And who better to be her rebound guy than Phanan, a man who throws himself at nearly every woman he comes across? He’s desperate enough, I think, to accept her attentions even knowing that he’s not her first, second, or even third choice. He would resent it though. He would feel like he’s a pity fuck, and it would be a knife in his gut. They would both be using each other, and both be aware of it. However, Falynn and Ton would be so wrapped up in their own issues that they wouldn’t be able to improve things between them.

   They would be terrible for each other, and it would be an interesting disaster to watch unfold. Terrible, yes, but interesting. And because I too am terrible, I’ve managed to talk myself into shipping it. . ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
